Chapter 1697
Alkaid subconsciously shielded Selon behind her and stared fiercely at the fighters in front of her. In the
meanwhile, she was mentally estimating how long it would take to take them down.
Selon looked at her and saw her grim face. He was dumbfounded.
In his memory, Alkaid was a talkative girl with a bright and bubbly personality. He had rarely seen her
so serious.
He didn't want to see her like this.
Thinking about it, Selon felt guilty.
If it wasn't for protecting him, she didn't have to put herself in danger, even though it was her job.
"Get out of here when you get a chance. Don't worry about me."
Right after that, Alkaid rushed forward and fought the fighters.
Selon didn't want to run away on his own. He thought that since they arrived at the base together, they
had to leave together.
Even though Alkaid was an excellent fighter, she was alone. She was getting more and more wounds.
Selon's heart tensed up. Just as he was about to aid her, there were footsteps behind him.
He turned around and saw several martial art experts of the base.Alkaid also noticed them. After taking down the last men, she rushed to Selon and dragged him to the
exit.
The exit was so narrow that only one person could get through.
Alkaid did not hesitate to push Selon to the exit.
Selon was shocked. "Alkaid..."
He fell into the water with a splash before he could say something.
Relieved to see Selon out, Alkaid then turned to deal with the fighters who had chased up with her.
Selon surfaced and saw a flash of dazzling light. Alkaid was once again stabbed with a knife and blood
spilled out of the wound.
"Alkaid!" Selon shouted. He was so worried.
He could not leave Alkaid alone.
'Absolutely not!'
He swam as hard as possible, trying to pull himself out of the water.
"Mr. Shepard!" At that moment, a boat came to him.
The men in the boat pulled him onto board.
Selon knew they were Sean's men, so he urged them, "Go and help Alkaid without regarding me!"
But they all shook their heads. "I'm sorry, Mr. Shepard, our mission is to get you out of here safely."
The unstated implication was that they were not in a position to help Alkaid.Selon was so anxious that he wanted to jump off the boat.
"Mr. Shepard!" A man pulled him back and warned, "Don't go back. You will distract Alkaid. Trust her!
She'll be fine."
Selon calmed down.
'He's right. Alkaid got hurt because of me. But now she doesn’t need to do that anymore. She's so
smart, and she will manage to get out of there.1
Selon looked in the direction of the exit and prayed silently that Alkaid would be safe.
In fact, the moment Selon fell into the water, Alkaid was relieved.
When Selon was with her, she had to protect him, so she had to be very careful.
Now she didn't need to worry about him. Her moves were deadly.
After a while, she knocked back the three fighters who had caught up with her.
The three fighters were all amazed.
They didn't expect this woman alone could take all three of them down.
Alkaid breathed steadily and glared hard at them. She sneered, "You’ll exit over my dead body!"
Alkaid blocked the exit with her body. She wouldn't let them pass through.
