At first glance, Daniel felt this person was unbearably arrogant.
He secretly leaned towards Chloe's ear and said, "Who knows what he's pretending to be."
Chloe replied, "See that bandage on his face? I put it there."
Hearing this, Daniel's eyes immediately filled with shock: "As expected of you!"
Rupert: "..."
He twitched the corner of his mouth, forcing a smile that didn't reach his eyes:
"How nice that you can stand here so casually discussing my wound. The next moment might not be so comfortable for you."
As he finished speaking, he pulled out a large knife from behind his back.
Rupert was very confident in himself. Last time he was ambushed by Chloe was just a fluke.
As a general of the Werewolf Race, how could he not defeat a 13-year-old cub?
Just as he was thinking this, he noticed Chloe's figure had disappeared from view.
Rupert's heart skipped a beat as he vaguely sensed something. He immediately turned and swung his knife towards the direction of the wind!
Chloe had somehow managed to get behind Rupert without anyone seeing her movement.
Even Daniel, who had been right next to her, was a bit confused.
"When did she run over there?"
But now wasn't the time for questions. Chloe didn't have any weapons - after being captured and brought to the research institute, her mustard ring containing her weapons had been taken away. Chloe had no idea where they had put her weapons.
This was quite frustrating.
However, Chloe didn't need weapons to beat this greasy middle-aged man to a pulp.
As the large knife swung towards her, Chloe nimbly changed the direction of her hand chop, while slightly shifting her body to the side, precisely striking Rupert's neck from the side.
Rupert felt a sharp pain in his neck, followed by an endless itching sensation, as if millions of ants were gnawing at his flesh.
This made Rupert feel a surge of irritation.
Just as he was about to counterattack, ignoring the wound on his neck, a sudden force came from his side and rear.
"Bang!"
Daniel had leaped up, his lower leg smashing hard into Rupert's head.
This blow from a Werewolf Race cub with innate super strength was no joke. Rupert's head was buzzing.
Daniel cursed:
"Who do you think you're showing off to, you beast?"
Chloe walked up, grabbed the dazed Rupert by the hair, and then slammed his head hard against the floor!
There was a loud crash as a huge gash opened on Rupert's forehead, blood gushing out steadily.
Chloe coldly muttered "useless," then dusted off her hands, preparing to leave.
Just then, Rupert's fingers twitched.
Immediately after, Chloe felt her lower leg being gripped tightly, followed by a great force pulling her back!
Daniel's eyes widened: "Chloe!"
Rupert grabbed Chloe's leg, dragged her back, and then viciously slammed her against the wall.
At that moment, Chloe's only thought was - thank goodness my head is hard enough.
She felt a wave of dizziness, with warm liquid flowing down from her forehead.
But Chloe couldn't dwell on that. In the first second of dizziness, she instinctively grabbed Rupert's wrist and violently twisted it outward!
After the cracking sound of bones, Chloe's vision was still blurry and dark, but her face showed no sign of it.
The girl's expression was completely blank, her eyes hollow, lips tightly pressed together. The thick blood flowing from her forehead onto her eyelids and cheeks added an eerie quality to her appearance.
Chloe must have broken Rupert's hand. She didn't care about anything else; after twisting his hand, she immediately raised her leg to kick towards Rupert's groin.
Rupert probably didn't expect Chloe to fight so dirty. In his panic to dodge, he inadvertently let Chloe slip out of his grasp.
Unfortunately for him, while he could dodge once, he couldn't dodge forever. Rupert may have avoided Chloe's attack, but he couldn't escape Daniel's sneak attack.
A sharp pain in his groin...
Rupert collapsed to the ground in agony.
But even so, Chloe wouldn't let him off. She followed her senses and crouched in front of Rupert.
She raised her hand and brought it down hard.
With a crisp sound, Rupert was knocked unconscious by her blow.
Seeing this, Daniel also came over and delivered a hard slap for good measure.
Now, Rupert probably wouldn't wake up for quite a while.
Daniel crouched on the ground, looking at him for a moment before sighing, "Why did he even bother? Coming here just to get beaten up?"
"Don't know, can't understand it," Chloe said, asking Daniel to find a blanket, which she then rather disrespectfully draped over Rupert's body.
It was the way one might cover a corpse, quite insulting.
After precisely covering him, Chloe withdrew her senses and suddenly became blind again. She grasped Daniel's hand:
"Take me out, I can't see."
"I know."
Daniel simply swung Chloe onto his back, the corners of his lips turning up in a smile:
"I'll take you out of this damn research institute right now, I..."
"Don't leave yet, there's still Qin Huaibei and the others."
Daniel: "..."
He rubbed his nose, sheepishly saying: "I know, I'm going now."
...
After taking Chloe out of the isolation room, Daniel no longer dared to be so bold.
Although there were cameras everywhere in the research institute, Daniel could always find temporary hiding spots.
But this life of constantly hiding was too miserable. Daniel couldn't take it anymore and finally decided to confront them head-on.
To hell with keeping a low profile!
With so many cameras around, who knows how long it would take to find Qin Huaibei and the others if they kept sneaking around!
They charged forward, with Daniel leading the charge and Chloe using her senses to throw people from behind.
Every time a research institute staff member appeared, she would toss them aside, applying her skills with great proficiency.
Finally, when both of them were drenched in sweat, they found the room where Qin Huaibei was being held.
The door of the isolation room was kicked open. Daniel, moved to tears, grabbed Qin Huaibei's shoulders and said:
"Brother, I've finally found you!"
Qin Huaibei, his shoulders aching from Daniel's grip, lifted his eyelids and gave him a tired look before weakly saying:
"I saw you a few hours ago. You kicked open my door, then turned around and continued looking for Chloe without a second glance."
Daniel: "..."
Chloe: "..."
"So that's the kind of little wolf you are," Chloe whispered devilishly.
To this, Daniel had no recollection whatsoever and insisted, "You must have seen wrong. How could I have seen you and not rescued you? Don't joke around."
As he spoke, he earnestly pulled Qin Huaibei up from the ground:
"Besides, I'm here to rescue you now, aren't I? Stop complaining and come with me."
Chloe used her senses to scan the surroundings: "Katherine isn't with you?"
"We were together earlier," Qin Huaibei rubbed his brow, "but not long ago she was taken away by that group of kidnappers here."
