Chapter 1139 The First Meeting
A small squad from the Hunter’s Guild was fast-walking in the dark forest, racing against time with the vampires. However, the problem was that the area was so large, the forest so vast, and there were mountains and rivers, not to mention it was close to the sea; the terrain could definitely be called complex, making it no easy task to find one person.
"Be optimistic," Irina said, "It’s only because the terrain is so complex that the person has a chance to hold out longer."
Her companions felt Irina made sense, but someone raised a concern, "Even if that kid can escape from a group of vampires chasing him, this time the two most powerful figures in Organization X are in charge. Once they make a move, there’s no chance the kid could escape."
Another teammate agreed with the sentiment, "By then, it might be us who get wiped out."
Irina tried to boost morale, "Look on the bright side again. Over the years, we’ve been searching for a chance to assassinate the two most powerful figures in Organization X, but we couldn’t find one. Unexpectedly, in this city, in this place, we actually stumbled upon the opportunity."
A companion shook his head and sighed, "Captain, you really are an optimist. Right now, we don’t have a successor to Jian Shen, and it’s the enemy’s turf. Our chance of winning seems slim."
At the mention of a successor to Jian Shen, Irina became lost in thought. It was her heartache. She had tried to get the person to rejoin the team several times, but he had refused, as if there was nothing left for him to linger for.
Seeing Irina’s despondent look, some teammates were puzzled, "This is really strange. Why does Irina get that look every time we mention the heir of Jian Shen? Does he owe her a lot of money?"
"Are you dumb? Can’t you see it? It’s unrequited love."
"Oh, does Irina have feelings for the heir of Jian Shen ..."
Just then, there was a rustling in the dark forest, putting everyone on high alert, and Irina was especially tense, pointing her gun in that direction.
