Very often, pureblood cubs cannot control their emotions very well. Kewen assigned Anderson next to Chloe not only for protection, but also for restraint and restriction.
Having grown up together since childhood, Anderson could give Chloe a sense of security to some extent and wake her up from her chaotic and ignorant state.
This was also why Anderson, who was clearly not stronger than Chloe, could still be arranged by Kewen to be by Chloe's side on duty, and even act under the banner of "protection".
The rich crimson in Chloe's eyes gradually faded.
She stared at Anderson for a while, then slowly said, "It's you."
"Yes, it's me," Anderson said as he pulled Chloe's hand up.
Chloe obediently did not struggle and allowed Anderson to pick her up from Kamen and gently put her down on the sandy ground.
The dagger was still inserted in Kamen's body. Anderson's eyes flashed a hint of darkness as he looked at Kamen's terrified face, and then he forcibly pulled out the dagger.
Blood gushed out. Kamen panickedly crawled up from the ground and ran towards the Brut Military Academy.
Anderson's gaze lingered on his back for a moment before withdrawing.
There would be plenty of time to punish him later.
Thinking this, Anderson squatted down and used a handkerchief to wipe the blood from Chloe's hands.
The place had been cut open by the dagger and looked extremely fierce.
The crisp fragrance of golden chrysanthemum filled Chloe's nostrils, making her feel very comfortable.
She subconsciously called out Anderson's name, and the youth with the cold and stern face would always respond softly, reassuring Chloe.
After some time, the crimson in Chloe's eyes finally faded completely.
She slowly recalled what had just happened, then scoffed, "Did Kamen get away?"
As she spoke, Chloe raised her eyes to see the people from the Brut Military Academy still across from them.
Kamen's injuries were already healed. Anderson explained to her in a low voice,
"Since we were the ones who caused it, Katherine healed his injuries."
Hearing this, Chloe was not very concerned. She just said lightly, "Anyway, he'll get hurt again in the future."
As for where he would get injured, who would injure him, and whether elves would help heal him after getting injured, Chloe did not specify at all.
She got up from the sandy ground with Anderson and walked towards their No.1 Military Academy team.
Qin Huaibei looked at her worriedly, "Are you alright? No harm done?"
Chloe leisurely said, "I'm fine, not dead yet."
"You were so cool just now," Daniel recalled the previous scene, then shivered, "But it was also very dangerous. You really looked like you wanted to kill Kamen."
Chloe nodded and threatened, "I did want to, because he's the werewolf I hate the most. Do you want to try it out?"
Upon hearing this, Daniel immediately pulled out an ingratiating smile, "How could I be the same as those foolish werewolves? Miss Chloe, believe me, I'm absolutely on your side!"
Chloe snorted contemptuously but nodded her head anyway.
Just as they were talking, Katherine walked over with a taut face.
"Injured again?"
Chloe held out her palm and lazily nodded her head, "Yeah, still this."
Katherine frowned at her, "Can you be more careful?"
"Definitely next time," Chloe slyly revealed a smile.
Fortunately, Katherine's healing ability was extremely powerful. In less than five minutes, Chloe's palm was as good as new.
Everyone stood up with their weapons on their backs.
Their synchronized actions frightened the Brut Military Academy team, who retreated several steps back.
"Tsk, cowards," Daniel flipped them the middle finger.
But as soon as he raised it, the exasperated Qin Huaibei pressed it down.
Daniel's hand dropped down and clenched into a fist. Then, with his middle finger sticking against his pant seam, he raised it stubbornly again.
Chloe watched them leisurely and said,
"It was your boss who first proposed hand-to-hand combat without weapons. Now it's also him who first violated the agreement. What do you guys think should be done about this?"
The Brut Military Academy members looked at each other but did not say anything coherent.
As for Kamen, the feeling of near-death was too strong. Now, the sight of Chloe made him so nervous that he couldn't speak, as useless as a waste.
Seeing that they weren't talking, Qin Huaibei stood up holding the map, with a smile on his face identical to Chloe's.
"Well then, how about you guys retreat 2,000 meters together with your people?"
Upon hearing this, the Brut Military Academy members loudly protested, "No way!"
Retreating 2,000 meters, going and coming back would take at least over forty minutes.
In this competition, time was everything. Forty minutes - the other military academies would probably have reached the finish line already! What would be left of their Brut Military Academy!
Seeing that they didn't agree, Katherine snorted coldly,
"Retreat 2,000 meters, or we'll beat you down until you're eliminated automatically. Pick one."
After Katherine spoke, Daniel quietly praised, "Katherine is becoming more and more like us now."
Chloe deeply agreed.
Qin Huaibei helplessly held his forehead.
What manner was that, bandit manner?
Hearing this, the Brut Military Academy members hesitated.
They definitely couldn't beat them in a fight. Even Chloe, who looked slender, was able to beat their boss into a pulp. If the whole No.1 Military Academy went at them together, they would stand no chance at all.
Let alone it was Kamen who violated the agreement first.
After struggling for a bit, the Brut Military Academy members still picked up their stuff and walked away.
Seeing them leave, Chloe grasped the hilt of her sword and put her entire weight on the broadsword. She pointed two fingers together on her forehead, tapping lightly as she called out blithely,
"Oh by the way, what my perception can sense goes beyond just 2,000 meters!"
She smiled and said, "If you guys try to cheat and don't do as we say, I make no guarantees about what might happen to you next."
The Brut Military Academy members' expressions changed as they quickened their pace and hurriedly left.
After they were gone, Chloe naturally spread out her perception, then effortlessly pulled the broadsword from the sandy ground and slung it over her shoulder. "Let's go, keep moving."
They had wasted a lot of time fighting just now and couldn't guarantee where Tagar and Sasley had gotten to by now. Anyway, moving fast was the way to go.
The five of them picked up speed. Any desert planet monsters along the way were taken care of by Daniel and Anderson together - swift and unstoppable.
After walking for who knows how long, the sun gradually moved west.
Qin Huaibei stopped first, "Let's not rush for now. The day and night temperature difference in the desert planet is big. It'll be very cold at night. Let's set up camp now."
That made sense, so everyone stopped and started setting up camp.
Daniel went far away to gather some firewood and made a simple bonfire here.
Werewolves were best at things like this.
He surrounded the bonfire with bricks to prevent the wild wind from blowing it out, then enthusiastically volunteered, "I'll stand guard tonight."
