Qin Lu’s eyes sharpened as he looked towards the direction of the footsteps, sharp as knives.
Listening to the footsteps, he calculated the distance between the other person and himself. By the time the person was only three steps away, he was ready. When the person showed their head, Qin Lu attacked suddenly. The individual had only come over for convenience and had no idea that Qin Lu would be hiding here.
In a moment of carelessness, Qin Lu grabbed him by the neck. Without even uttering a word, the person was choked unconscious by him.
If Qin Lu weren’t so weak now, this move could have cost the person his life. Without time to think of anything else, after knocking him out, Qin Lu dragged his painfully sore body away from there as quickly as possible.
Chapman heard a slight commotion coming from that direction. Initially, he didn’t pay much attention to it, but after three minutes had passed and the person who had gone inside the building hadn’t come out, he couldn’t help but become suspicious.
With furrowed brows, he strode quickly towards that direction. Upon entering the building, he saw his subordinate lying on the ground. Squatting beside him, he checked under his nose and on his neck to confirm that he was still alive, his expression somewhat complicated.
Since Strelar was already betraying his master, why would he show mercy to those who came to hunt him down?
Did he have some kind of reason? But…
No matter what his reason might be, betrayal of the master was unforgivable! However, considering their years of friendship, he could let him die a bit more easily.
Chapman surveyed the surroundings of the room gloomily. He saw a puddle of water on the ground. At first, he thought it was urine, but seeing a clear trail beside it, with a drop of water every ten centimeters, he followed the trail.
Following this water trail, he reached outside the room. Once outside, due to the ground material, he couldn’t see the droplets anymore.
However, he didn’t need to. Because there was only one passage here, if he had run out of this room, there was only one way to go.
Qin Lu swore that he had never been in such a miserable state in his life. Every step felt like walking on a razor’s edge, every move akin to being tortured. What used to be effortless movements now felt as difficult as climbing to the heavens.
Chapman had already found the path he had taken. With his current speed, it wouldn’t take him more than a few seconds to catch up with him.
Qin Lu supported himself against the wall with his left hand, propping himself up, and pulled out a short blade from his waist with his right hand. This was his only weapon.
Just as Chapman was about to find him, and he was prepared to fight to the death, there came a shout from outside, “Got him!”
