Even if he bared his teeth, even if his steps faltered.
The woods on the eastern outskirts of Piltover were not very dense. Every step she took would leave a red footprint on the ground, which was very clear on the dead leaves or soil.
Seeing her walking away with blood oozing from her calf, Fisis, as a kidnapper, was a little dumbfounded.
This woman is really cruel!
Originally, Fisis was thinking about taking advantage of Tamara's injury to run away, but seeing that Tamara was so cruel to him, he decisively gave up the idea.
The dagger at the vital point was still there. Looking at Tamara's posture, even if she was injured, Physis still didn't dare to move.
At this moment, facing Tamara who walked beside her and stepped on her blood, Fisis could not help but secretly sigh in her heart: What did she think before that she actually fell in love with such a person in the laboratory?
Number one.
Well, as expected of me.
……………………
What Phesis didn't know was that Tamara, who seemed determined and unyielding, was actually reaching her limit.
The injury on her leg was not too serious, far from fatal.
Caitlin didn't have the habit of coating her bullets with poison, so the worst result was necrosis and amputation - this kind of thing was completely trivial to the Noxians.
And considering that she brought back Physis this time, even if the limb is really amputated, she can give priority to Hex's body modification.
But the problem is that Tamara is not only injured, but has also been exercising at full capacity for more than three hours.
From the time she subdued Phesis, to detonating explosives, to dragging him all the way out of the city, Tamara's physical strength could no longer support her. Her ability to continue to threaten Phesis was all due to her steely willpower.
Spies don't have endurance training.
Fortunately, after entering the woods here, the last three miles of road are ahead.
As long as you grit your teeth and survive this period, the empire's support will come to you!
With this idea in mind, Tamara limped and walked the last section of the road with a captive.
During this process, in order to prevent herself from losing consciousness due to exhaustion and blood loss, she kept telling Physis about Noxus' policies.
At the beginning, her story was clear and coherent.
The conversation became more and more confusing, and Tamara gradually began to speak incoherently.
However, when she finally passed through the forest smoothly and came to an unknown river, what appeared in front of her was not the naval warship she expected, but one parked next to "what looked like a dock."
of a small boat.
What is going on?
Just when Tamara's head began to feel dizzy due to blood loss and surprise, inside the boat, a familiar figure straightened up suddenly like a sit-up. Then, ten people saw a picture and nine people clenched their hands.
The face whose fist wanted to hit him appeared in front of Tamara.
"Isn't this our lady mason? I haven't seen her for a few years, why are you so embarrassed?"
"Shut up, Draven!" Tamara secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said viciously, "There are two pursuers behind me, I need to bandage them!"
"Go, go." Draven shook his head and stood up, his exaggerated mustache swaying in the wind, "There is a medical kit in the box on the bow of the ship - I remember I reminded you to learn from me.
Learn how to move…”
Then, before Draven could finish speaking, Tamara's dagger was pressed against his mustache.
Feeling this seemingly real threat, Draven finally shrugged, then took out two special throwing axes from nowhere, and met the direction Tamara was walking in.
Tamara, on the other hand, silently put away the dagger, found the medical kit that Delevingne had mentioned, disinfected her wound, and then tried to pick out the bullet stuck in the muscle.
……………………
Because of this forest, Caitlin and Wei's pursuit was slowed down a lot - in Runeterra, although there is no such thing as "don't enter the forest", the view is somewhat blocked and the environmental conditions are complicated in the woods.
In the end, it's best not to enter if you can.
However, after carefully observing Tamara's footprints, Caitlin and Vi both read an eagerness to try in each other's eyes.
Chase, why not chase?
We have already injured the target, how could we give up!
"Is there any spare magazine?" Wei quickly replaced himself with a pair of spare gloves, "I always feel like that guy has an accomplice."
"Law enforcement should not rely on intuition, but on reason." Caitlin corrected, "However, from a rational perspective, that guy definitely has an accomplice - from here to the east, you will soon reach the seaside."
"So, do you know the identity of the other party?" Wei glanced at Caitlin, who seemed to have made up her mind, and asked curiously, "What did you find?"
"The other party is probably a war mason from Noxus." Following the bloody footprints, Caitlin took the lead into the woods. "Now that I think about it, those guys who tried to stop me before were probably professional spies.
.”
"How did you discover this?" Wei was a step behind strangely, "Or are you just guessing?"
"Originally it was just a guess." Caitlin strode quickly, almost without looking at the footprints on the ground, and quickly walked towards the direction of Tamara's escape. "But after entering this forest, I finally remembered - on the east side of the forest,
There was once a Noxian garrison near the coast."
"Garrison base?" Wei's eyes widened in astonishment, "Why is there a Noxian garrison base on the outskirts of Piltover?"
"It belongs to the Myrdalda family in name, but is actually controlled by the Noxians..."
"It's so outrageous." Vi couldn't help but say a curse word, "Are all your congressmen fools? How could they allow the Noxians to build a base here?"
"Watch your words!" Caitlin snorted, "My mother is also a congressman!"
"So?" Wei said nonchalantly, "Why, are you going to complain about me to the Zaun Law Enforcement Bureau and then deduct my bonus? Sorry, you don't have the right to complain -"
"Vulgar and vulgar..."
“It’s better than pretending!”
"..."
"..."
In this way, Vi and Caitlin quarreled while following the footprints and quickly passed through the woods.
Then, in the empty space at the edge of the woods, they saw a guy with a sharp haircut, a ecstatic beard, and an expression that was unbeatable.
"You're finally here!" Draven happily turned the throwing ax in his hand, then turned back to look at Tamara in the boat, "Are you bandaged? Open your eyes wide after it's bandaged.
Watch hard, study hard, and then Draven will be full of charm!"
