While Troy was lost in thought, Hibell struggled to stand and staggered towards the staircase.
Even though her body was collapsing from illness and her life was hanging by a thread, she was determined to stand with her comrades, even if it meant dying on the path to see Fenrir.
As she reached the staircase, just before she could go down, a figure suddenly appeared.
Seeing the person before her, Hibell was frozen and recognized him immediately.
Chu Nanyi had somehow arrived at the shelter building under the Wolf Strike's assault, his gaze didn't linger on Hibell but moved directly to the despondent Troy nearby.
Chu Nanyi's eyes sparked with sharp intent to kill, raising his gun and aiming at Troy without hesitation.
Though Hibell's health was failing, her combat instincts honed through years of experience were still intact. Alarmed by Chu Nanyi's actions, her body instinctively lunged forward to block the gun.
