Chapitre 297: Zhorion City

He was about to begin his infiltration when Xi's voice resounded in his mind again. At her tone, he knew right away that something serious had just happened.

[Lu Yan is dead.]

"What?!" Jake exclaimed aloud, practically ruining all his efforts at discretion with a single word.

That was great news! Erm, not really... Taking the information more seriously, he quickly became gloomy again. How long had it been since he had abandoned Lu Yan? Not much more than a day. Even if she was awake, she should still be recovering in the crypt he had made for her.

How could she have died so quickly? Had she tried to come out of her hiding place and a Player or an enemy creature had found her? Or was her hiding place not so good and a Player or a passing monster discovered her while she was still unconscious? Last possibility, she had died from her wounds before regaining consciousness. It was unlikely but possible. After all, he hadn't even bothered to make her drink any water.
