Chapter 243: Foreboding Confirmation

Mary's introduction seemed to have eased the tension. 

Samantha and Nancy both acknowledged her contribution, while Damon, though still not entirely pleased, didn't press the matter further. 

And Theobold seized the opportunity to steer the conversation back to their current situation.

"Anyway, what are your plans for coming all the way here in the frontline?" Theobold asked, clearly stunned by their appearance. There were numerous monster waves in the past and were difficult to suppress too, but never once had these people shown their appearance. 

However, this time, all five of them had respectively arrived at the frontline, causing Theobold to believe there were definitely more than the eyes met. Samantha, Nancy, and Damon all suddenly made a pause in their movements, clearly unwilling to divulge or answer Theobold's simple question.
