Chapter 3135
Brenton did not expect Hepburn to regard Nathan with such importance that she would even be willing to accompany him to the perilous ruins of Musbane's capital, so he could not help but say anxiously, "Holy Maiden-"
"Brenton, if you don't want to go, you can stay in the camp. You don't have to go with us," she said calmly.
With that, Hepburn shifted her gaze to the other Holy Knights and bishops. "The same goes for you all. It's not mandatory to accompany Mr. Cross to the Musbane ruins this time. Everyone can choose to go or stay. But first, let me warn you. This trip is very dangerous."
Everyone quickly agreed to head there together.
After all, the Holy Maiden was going, so they had no reason to back down.
Besides, they were sent there by the Curia to rescue humans and hunt vampires.
As they had yet to make any contributions since arriving there, they felt the need to achieve something soon.
When he noticed that everyone wanted to go to the Musbane ruins with Nathan, Brenton had no choice but to go along despite his reluctance.
I came here intending to impress Hepburn and win her affection. If I cower in the camp, she'll surely look down on me, and I can abandon all thoughts of winning over her in the future.
Soon, everyone got into the vehicles.
Soon, a convoy of more than a dozen heavy trucks and Jeeps left the camp in an organized fashion and proceeded in the direction of the distant ruins of Musbane's capital.
Nathan, Colin, Hepburn, and Brenton were in the same Jeep.
As soon as he entered the vehicle, Nathan closed his eyes and rested. He had already developed the habit of resting as much as possible when commanding an army to conserve his energy so that he could fight at his best during battle.
While he was doing that, Hepburn looked at his profile with interest.
Her eyes sparkled as she praised him internally. Mr. Cross is truly handsome from every angle. Even his profile looks exquisite.
She peeked at Nathan unscrupulously while the latter was resting with his eyes closed, blissfully unaware that Brenton was looking at her and Nathan with a gloomy expression from the side.
In his opinion, not only was he born into Adrunian nobility and possessed extraordinary strength, but he also had long stood unrivaled in the continent and was hailed as unmatched in strength.
He had also excelled since joining the Curia, so he could not understand why Hepburn was drawn to Nathan, an Aplothian, rather than an outstanding person like him.
I can't accept this!
He decided that as long as there was a chance, he would compete against Nathan and triumph over him to show Hepburn who was superior.

This Holy Maiden seems to be drawn to Mr. Cross. Looks like every woman would no longer be interested in any other man as soon as they saw him.
The vehicle Nathan and the others were riding in was at the front of the convoy.
He kept his eyes closed throughout the drive, whereas Hepburn rested her chin on her hands and stared at his face the entire time.
"Pay attention. There's a situation," Nathan cautioned without warning.
Hepburn was stunned by his sudden words, and her pretty face instantly reddened.

Despite their vigilance, the road ahead was peaceful without anything unusual.
Brenton snickered, mocking Nathan for deliberately deceiving them.
However, before he could say anything, a spotted deer covered in blood suddenly sprang out of the grass by the side of the road.
It seemed to be pursued by something as it pushed forward and was hit by the moving vehicle.
Bam!
After the impact, the deer was thrown many meters away. It hit the ground and died on the spot.
The convoy came to a halt.
Everyone stared at the dead deer, and just as they were dismissing it as a false alarm, they suddenly heard a strange cry.
A blood-covered figure in tattered

deer. Then, after grabbing the

Hepburn's expression changed drastically. She gasped and said in a low voice, "It's an infected human who has turned into a vampire."
