Chapter 123: Death Ridge
When George walked into the room at dusk, he saw Zero packing his things.
This was the third day after Lan Qi’s assassination attempt. He had already recovered and was preparing to leave the hospital. However, if something unexpected happened, he would have to leave Phoenix City tomorrow. After passing through the Death God Ridge, he continued to head towards the Blue collar mountain range.
George tossed Zero a crumpled cigarette and the officer slammed the door. Otherwise, the taste of the inferior nicotine would attract criticism. George didn’t want to be complained about in the military.
“What, are you leaving?” George asked, lighting a cigarette.
He wiped his finger on his cigarette and lit it up.
George was slightly surprised. “So the fire element can be used in such a way?” “Sometimes I envy you Adepts. Sometimes it’s too f * cking convenient.”
Zero smiled and said, “Are you here to repay me for the wine?”
George’s face immediately turned ugly. He shook his head and said, “I say, fellow. Are you that stingy?”
“You’re right this time.” With a smile, Zero said, “That’s why I plan to treat you to a few more drinks before we leave.”
