Chapter 252: Shifting Sands

Kace slowly descended the boarding ramp, he activated Tracking and paid close attention to his phantom Hydra head. He was determined to catch any signs of an ambush as early as possible. The heat emanating from the sand was no joke, as Kace felt himself begin to sweat beneath his armour. Grugda, Shadow and Lilly slowly descended from the airship behind him.

"Shadow, Grugda. Spread out. Lilly, stay close to me." Kace ordered without moving his gaze from the city before them.

They wasted no time with arguing about his decision as they each headed for different gap in the buildings. Lilly seemed nervous as she stuck close to Kace, letting him take the lead. She was no idiot, she knew that these three would be more capable than herself. She was glad that Kace chose to protect her himself.
