Chapter 7 Rescue Serena

The morning rain made the village even muddier. Luca stepped carefully into a room. There are many shoe prints on the faded brick floor.

"No. 2, long time no see."

Monster No. 3 stood in the hallway on the 2nd floor, waving to Luca. His smile was as innocent as a child's. But Luca knew that behind that angelic smile was a demon.

That year Luca was not allowed to confront No. 3 directly, but Luca still heard his reputation. No. 3's fighting ability is not good, but his movement speed is very agile. Most of his opponents lost to him from exhaustion.

No one could beat Monster No. 3. No one could catch him. In the end, the opponent will get tired, lose the ability to fight, and lie on the ground, waiting to be killed by the No. 3. He would slowly torture his opponents to death.

Luca didn't want to say hello to No. 3. Luca calmly looked up and asked No. 3.

"Where is Serena?"

"I don't know?"

No. 3 laughed. He pointed to a few rooms around.

"She could be in the other right room or the left room. This village has an ancient monument. It's like a maze inside, and I don't remember where I dumped her."

No. 3 pretended to be seriously thinking. But his gaze on Luca was defiant.

"Or me and you competing together. Whoever finds her first, that beautiful Omega will belong to him."

"She's not a toy for you to take as a trophy."

Luca was angry. His hands clenched into fists.

"You have no choice. If you don't hurry, that Omega will belong to me."

Luca only saw a shadow pass by. No. 3 was gone. Luca started searching all the rooms he saw, but this place was huge. There is also a door leading down to the basement. That place, as number 3 said, is a labyrinth.

The dim oil lamps on the wall in front of each room could not illuminate the whole place. Time passed quickly, and Luca felt worried for Serena. Luca rested his back against the wall. If he continued to search room by room like this, he would never be able to find Serena.

When Luca was in despair, a series of sounds sounded like a light illuminating his path. The sound echoed as if someone was knocking on the wall with a lamp. Luca realized this was how to type the code he had taught Serena.

"Serena, where are you?"

Luca knocked on the wall. On the other side, Serena quickly typed in the reply code.

"I don't know. It's the same around every room. I can't tell the difference."

Luca didn't know how to find Serena. But roughly, Luca can see the laws of this place.

"Serena, now you go forward. Stand at the crossroads."

It took about two minutes for Serena to reply to Luca. She stood at the intersection, waiting for the next instruction from him. She trusted him.

"Serena, at the crossroads you turn right, meet the road junction you turn left. If you see the stairs, go down."

Serena followed Luca's lead. Luca is the opposite of Serena. He moves forward, turns left at the intersection, and turns right at the junction, meeting the stairs and then going up. The two of them would be able to meet.

Luca sped up the pace. He knew Monster No. 3 was somewhere around here. He was faster than Luca. If No. 3 finds Serena, she'll be in danger.

Luca sensed danger. He spun around, a shadow flickering over Luca's side. Blood from Luca's arm fell to the floor. Monster No. 3 attacks Luca.

"You're still very agile, Monster No. 2."

"Still not as fast as you."

Luca dodged in time. He only suffered skin injuries. Luca didn't notice the wound either. He looked at Monster No. 3. Luca wanted to attack. But Luca's purpose is not to kill No. 3.

Luca focused his efforts kill on No. 3. No. 3 looked at Luca with a smile of sarcasm. That year No. 1 was too strong, and the cell space was so tight that No. 3 couldn't dodge. But now, Luca wants to hit Monster No. 3 is impossible.

As Luca stepped forward, Monster No. 3 passed him. Luca didn't turn around to attack but forbade his head to run forward, leaving No. 3 looking at Luca's back in surprise.

No. 3 knew Luca had no intention of fighting. Monster No. 3 quickly chases after Luca. But No. 3 just ran up to Luca, and he threw his fist straight at No. 3. No. 3 can dodge, but there's a little bit of fear toward Luca

That year, TW ranked Luca in 2nd place because Luca's strength was only inferior to No. 1. No. 3 has only agile speed. He has no power to attack. So when meeting a strong opponent, No. 3 will not dare to approach. This is his weakness.

One pursuer, one attacker. I don't know how much time has passed in front of Luca appeared the light of a running person's flashlight As soon as Luca saw Serena, he hugged her. Luca looked warily at Monster Number 3.

"Number 2, how can you protect her?"

If Luca is alone, it wouldn't be difficult for him to escape outside. If there is more Serena, Luca will not dare to move. He has to protect her.

Serena also knows she is Luca's burden. She held his hand tightly. She wanted to look at him closely.

"Luca runs away, don't worry about me. After you escape, use bombs to blow this place down. I want him to die with me."

"What a strong girl."

No. 3 is nervous Luca will leave Serena behind and run away from this place. After years of confinement in TW, they soon lost their humanity. Apart from killing, they only care about their survival.

Luca didn't look at Serena, but he grabbed her hand tightly.

"You shut up. You try to defend yourself. I'll take you out."

Serena is the daughter of King Alpha. She is also a rookie trained by Luca himself. If Luca left her behind, he would no longer be worthy to be the captain of Team 1.

"No. 3, we should end this war."

Luca looked at No. 3. He flashed a smile that made No. 3 fear.
