Chapter 245: Advance

Many faint steps resounded in the silence of the corridor. The soldiers had instinctively arranged themselves according to their confidence against the Stal, but Khan and Lieutenant Pouille remained in the lead. The former knew that his kicks wouldn't be so helpful against that powerful species. Still, he didn't dare to let anyone else be in front of the group since his sensitivity to mana was too valuable in that situation.

The dim lights coming out of the corners of the metal surfaces allowed Khan and Lieutenant Pouille to see almost everything in the corridor. Their group crossed many empty cells before arriving at a turn that Khan inspected silently before advancing. No one was in sight, but that wasn't enough to remove the tension that filled his mind.

Random thoughts appeared in Khan's mind while the group moved silently. He didn't forget to add the new turns to the path that he had memorized, but he still spared some attention to his hand and martial art.
