Chapter 65: Rank 'C' Mission II

Mai's voice carried a tone of quiet authority as she addressed Xiao Mu. "Little Mu, you'll stay here," she instructed, her gaze softening slightly.

"If anything, unusual happens, immediately hide yourself in the location I showed you earlier. Don't take any risks."

Despite Xiao Mu unexpectedly awakening and unlocking a talent that many yearn for, she was still very young, lacked combat experience and her level was quite low compared to the others. Mai wanted to keep her safe.

Xiao Mu nodded, her young face determined, though there was a hint of worry in his eyes as he watched the team prepare to leave. 

Mai then turned to the rest of the group, her expression returning to its usual seriousness.

She cast a glance at the truck, now loaded with ammunition and various weapon boxes.
