The Lycan King's Fate Calling (Shawn Gibson and Sylvia)
Chapter 426 Set Off

Sylvia's POV:

I tried my best to suppress the uneasiness in my heart. I needed to concentrate on the mission right now.

This was a covert operation, which meant we couldn't take any military aircraft. Only military vehicles.

It was almost noon when we boarded the vehicle and left. Under the scorching sun, Harry felt the need to drink a lot of water to keep himself hydrated.

"You might be drinking too much. There might not be toilets on the way," I reminded him.

After getting on the vehicle, Flora didn't look too well either. She leaned her head on my shoulder and yawned every minute.

Warren sat opposite of her and looked at her from time to time. After a while, he finally brought out a fan from his pocket and fanned Flora.

Flora felt the wind and opened her eyes. When she realized it was Warren, she snorted coldly.

I coughed, trying to buffer the awkwardness between them.

It didn't seem that Warren knew about the break up. It just appeared that Flora was only angry with Warren.

After a while, Jerome set up a computer. He projected a map onto the white screen. There were many red dots on the map.

"This is where we are currently headed." Jerome pointed at the biggest red dot. "This place lies along the border of vampire territory. There are about five packs in the area. The biggest one is the Red Maple Pack. The other four are vassals. Everyone, please turn your attention to the dots."

I brought out my notebook and wrote down the important locations. Flora also took out her notebook, though she moved rather sluggishly.

"Sir, why are some areas colored dark blue and others light blue?" Harry asked.

I noticed that as well. There were more dark blue areas in the map.

Jerome took out his laser pointer and pointed at the blue areas. "That's what I'm about to explain. There was an earthquake that took place in this area a few days ago. Our mission is to help with the reconstruction. The dark blue region represents the heavily damaged areas. The light blue region was also affection, but significantly less. We will spend most of the time working in the dark blue region. Once we arrive, I'll divide you into several groups and assign each group to a different area."

No one was familiar with the area we were going to. Other than the army already stationed at the border, the only other people who were there were the natives. Werewolves rarely came to the area because it was simply too remote.

I came from a relatively small pack, and even I felt that this place was remote.

But I couldn't help but grow curious. Warren mentioned that twenty percent of the empire's oil was imported from the Red Maple Pack.

To me, it meant that the place must be doing well economically. Lucy's pack was also rich in oil, which was why it was ranked in the top ten of economic wealth. The werewolves that came from that pack were rich.

But from what Jerome said, this boarder area seemed to be poor and underdeveloped.

Flora continued to act aloof and refused to talk to Warren. But when she heard Warren talk about the Red Maple Pack, her interest was piqued as well.

"Go on," Flora's curious eyes lit up.

Warren smiled at Flora and continued, "Since this area is adjacent to vampire territory, the werewolves living there are often harassed by vampires. This place even used to hold the highest death rate in all of the werewolf empire."

Flora exclaimed, "That's miserable! What happened after?"

"Five years ago, the werewolves and vampires finally came to a peace agreement. That was the only time the situation improved," Warren explained calmly.

Then, he continued in a low voice. "In fact, the earthquake wasn't actually that serious. The search and reconstruction is almost finish. I don't think we're needed for that."

"Then why are we going there?" Harry whispered.

We leaned forward, looking at Warren with anticipation.

Warren sighed and leaned forward as well. "Something was wrong when they counted the casualties after the disaster. It turned out that a large number of werewolves had gone missing during the years, and they never reported. The army must have been sent there to investigate."
