Kapitel 264: Reasons ???: Run and Rescue (1)

*FIRE! FIRE!* The moving men shouted.

A sudden burst of fire had broken out, burning down the carriages that were filled with treasures.

The men froze when they saw the flames.

"Stop standing there, you fools! Go put it out now!"

Everyone quickly put down the boxes they were carrying and rushed to diminish the fire.

"Why wouldn't the fire die down?!"

The men tried to shove buckets of water to diminish it, but their actions seemed to strengthen the fire.

"It's the rum!

One of the men noticed rum bottles on the ground.

(Author: It is harder to extinguish alcohol fire with water. Water worsens the situation.)

"Use the sand and dirt! Hurry!!!"

While the fire diverted the enemy's attention, Ivy quickly freed the woman from their cage. Then they ducked behind a stack of boxes, trying to find the opportunity to run into the alleyway.

"Ivy! Ivy! Hope is back!"
