My Waste Husband -
Chapter 995
Chapter 995
Sometimes, the devil was in details.
And Henry was keen to details.
Running into the forest wasn't just Henry's escape plan. He knew that running away couldn't solve his problems.
When he was chatting with Andrew in the tavern, Henry eavesdropped on the hunter's conversation, even though at that time, Henry didn't know what they were talking about.
But at this time, Henry found out his chance of survival from their conversation. They had leaked a piece of vital information that enabled Henry to stand against Andrew in Recluse Association.
Sackcloth Visitor had told Henry the hierarchy of Recluse Association.
Taking a business corporation as an analogy, Andrew's position was similar to a regional manager of a global corporation, and he was the highest of power in that region.
However, just like within a corporation, general managers were higher than regional managers in ranks. In Recluse Association, that person was Bishop.
Henry had his theory after combining the information he overheard in the tavern and the conversation with Andrew.
The reason that Recluse Association dispatched so many masters to that area wasn't for eliminating the monsters but for searching people!
The Bishop's son had run missing in this area. After a failed expedition, everyone had believed that he had died.
But three days ago, someone found a blood-written note when he came in to kill the monsters hanging too close to the entrance, and the note was dated. The speculation was that it was written by the Bishop's son, communicating that he was still alive.
After so many Qi masters had died there, no hunters were brave enough to come in for the rescue.
At this moment, Henry was planning on finding the son.
To save his son, the Bishop could commend dozens of Qi masters to go to a place that would likely get them killed. It showed that how much the Bishop loved his son. If Henry could bring the son back to the Bishop, he would have more support from the upper level of the organization.
Even while Henry was running, he didn't stop
observing the surroundings for clues.
However, searching for a person in hiding in a huge area that was filled with monsters wasn't an easy task.
Since he came in, Henry had been paying attention to time. He realized that there was no changing between day and night. It seemed that there was some illuminatory material in this area. The material provided the space with just enough light to see. Henry didn't know what it was. He didn't know if Alvin League picked this location because of the material, or only this illuminatory material could render an underground space inhabitable.
Henry didn't dwell on the question for too long. He had something more urgent to think about. But Henry thought he could ask Future to study it if they could locate one of the underground areas.
Henry also realized that he was trembling while running. It wasn't out of fear but excitement. He hadn’t experienced that for many years.
It was said only manic could succeed in this world. It was their morbid persistence and extreme hunger for the stimulus that propelled them to achieve higher. Business men's stimulus was the risk of losing a large amount of investment. The adventurers' stimulus was risking their own lives.
The reason that Henry could topple the reign of The King Region, establish Radiat Island, and become the King of Hell was that he would not be satisfied easily. Henry was constantly looking for stimulus, something that could make the adrenaline rise.
"Roar!'
A two-meter-tall and four-meter-long tiger-like creature rushed toward Henry. It looked extremely strong and fast. The creature traveled faster than Henry was at his full speed!
Henry had had Qi concentrated around his palm. The speed of the creature gave him an idea, and the Qi dissipated. Henry stared at the creature like he just discovered a gold mine.
Five minutes later, Henry was riding on the creature, dashing through the forest.
It seemed that the creature had guite a reputation among all the other monsters. They all fleed when they heard its roar.
The fierce creature turned into a well-behaved cat under Henry's control. He grabbed the skin of the creature's neck and steered the direction by yanking the skin. With the creature as his ride, Henry could save a lot of energy in searching for the Bishop's son.
They had traveled for about thirty minutes.
"Whoa!" Henry suddenly shouted. At the same time, an invisible force bounded the creature's limbs. It lost the balance and fell forward.
Henry leaped up from the creature's back and landed effortlessly in front of a huge tree.
He saw something engraved into the tree trunk.
"This is Robbin Gaille. Please come to find me."
Under the inscription, there was an arrow pointed the direction.
There were no season changes or erosive weather down there, and Henry didn't know how the vegetation grew either. So he couldn't tell how old the inscription was or if Robbin Gaille was the person he was looking for.
However, Henry didn't have too much of an option. He released the bound on the creature and patted it on the head. He then headed toward the direction where the arrow pointed.
The creature followed Henry obediently.
Along the way, Henry could find the mark left by Robbin in every five meters, guiding Henry to find Robbin.
Henry walked in the directions where the arrows pointed.
"Roar!" The creature suddenly roared and then whined twice.
When a feline whined, it scared.
Henry suddenly looked up. Not far in front of him, there was a backpack near a tree, on which the name Robbin Gaille was written. Around the backpack, there was blood everywhere!
"What the!" Henry's pupils suddenly shrank. He sensed something dangerous was emerging behind his back.
Qi was slowly forming in Henry's palms.
After feeling a chill on his back, Henry shot up the Qi without even looking.
