Chapter 265 A split in paths

Up in the air, hovering far above while looking down at the fairly large town, was Ham . It was slowly following the group of students, along with the travellers seeing just where they were heading .

It was high enough in the sky, so the light source on their beast gear was unable to reach Ham . Then again, with his eyesight, he was able to see them quite well in the dark anyway .

"I hope Master is okay," Ham said as he sniffled and allowed the large snot from his nose to lift up . He had been crying nearly the whole time, thinking about the possibility of Fex leaving him .

He sniffed one time, hoping to bring the snot up back up from his nose . However, while doing so, he did it just a little too late, allowing a droplet to fall from above .

*Splat

A small drop of liquid was felt on one of the bald twins head .

"Is it raining in here?" he said as he wiped the wet mark from his head .

"You idiot . We're underground . Of course, it isn't raining . There's probably a river above or condensation or something," the other twin said .

As the group was walking, Logan and Peter made sure to stay at the back . However, Lily continued to stay behind the entire group as a type of guard, just in case anything would appear .

Now, Peter's pace was starting to slow a little as he was being more affected by his hunger .

"Peter, how long can you hold out? Until we get outside, I might be able to to do something by then," Logan whispered .

Peter, immediately looked up at Logan from his bent down position . He didn't say anything . Instead, his eyes were starting to show a slight tint of red in them .

"Okay . Looks like you won't last that long . " Looking around, Logan was trying to rack his brain at every option possible .

Finally, the group had reached one of the tunnels that led out of the city from the streets . While looking at all the tunnels around them, Logan thought the place resembled an ant's nest with the many branching tunnels in the end all leading to one destination .

While walking through the tunnels, Logan had come up with an idea that perhaps would enable Peter to feed away from everyone . But before executing the idea, he needed to get some information .

"So with all these tunnels, how do you guys know the way out?" Logan asked .

"These tunnels are like a maze and they either seem to loop to each other, or all end up going back to the original town we just left from," Andy replied . "In the end, we never found an exit, so we decided to create our own . One of the tunnels we marked ourselves . When we noticed the blue crystal lights, we placed red lights by the tunnel we created ourselves that led up to the surface . "

With the answer on how to leave the place, Logan could now execute his plan . The other students, including Logan, had actually come down the tunnels via the strange plant-like beast .

Logan had scanned the place before coming down, so he knew there was a space between the surface and the ground they were currently on and was prepared for it . But even Peter had broken his legs when dropping from such a height, and he had a stronger structure than a regular human .

It was a sad thought, but some of the other students were consumed by the strange plant-like beast . A few of them were most likely unable to make it and had fallen to their death . Unless they had an ability that could save them, this would be the case .

All Logan needed to do was to make them split up with the others and search through the tunnels for one of these dead students that Peter could feed on . It wouldn't be too strange if the teachers found a student's corpse half-eaten . Beasts would do these type of things all the time .

Finally, the group had exited from the tunnel and entered another larger section with several more tunnels .

The second they entered the room though, Peter loudly screamed as if he was in pain .

It seemed too sudden . By Logan's predictions, they should have had more time . Looking around the room though, he had soon spotted the cause .

His theory was right, some students really had fallen to their death after being consumed by the plant because there was a couple of students in front of them, their bodies mangled on the ground .

The smell and sight of the students had caused a reaction inside of him . If he hadn't seen them, then perhaps they really would have had more time .

Not knowing what to do, Logan rushed towards Peter with his suit still on and picked him up from the ground .

If it wasn't for the suit he was wearing, Logan wouldn't have been able to even pick up Peter due to the size difference . While lifting him and placing him above his shoulder, Peter remained motionless in the same position, not even moving his hands but continued to groan .

Right now, he was using every bit of energy and was concentrating on not lashing out and going towards the students . But even more so, he didn't want to bite his friend Logan, who was carrying him right now .

Logan continued to run with Peter on his shoulder, picking a tunnel at random .

"Wait, what are you doing!?" Lily shouted, concerned for them .

The others had already gone over to inspect the other students to see if they were still alive and anything they could do . However, it was too late .

Unaware of the commotion going on behind them, they only realised something was happening when Lily had shouted out to them .

"Wait!" Lily shouted out again, genuinely concerned for the two, so she decided to chase after them .

Suddenly, Logan's hand had transformed into one of his blasters . He aimed it at the ceiling and blasted it away, causing the tunnel to crumble down, blocking the path between them .

It wouldn't stop them, especially with their powers, but Logan wasn't hoping for that . He had analysed their leader Andre, and he was quite a smart man . Hopefully, him seeing Logan do these actions would suggest that something was up, knowing they didn't want to be followed . With his cautious nature, he would suggest for them to first go back and hand over the students before returning and Logan was right .

"We should go after them," Lilly suggested . She was genuinely concerned for the students safety . Especially since she was the only one that heard one of the students make a strange noise before everything had happened, and she codlin;t help but wonder if they were related .

"No," Andre replied . "Couldn't you see it? The other student caused the tunnel to collapse on purpose . They wanted to split up for us for whatever reason . For now, it's best if we leave that mystery unsolved and head back to the base . The students must be scared out of their minds after seeing what they have seen today . "

The group continued to walk through the tunnels, while also instructing the students to look away from the dead bodies . Cia tired to stay strong but continued to put her hand over her mouth and eyes as she caught glimpses of the bodies . But the others walked past them with more ease than her .

Andre, seeing this, made a mental note . It was as if Vorden and Layla had seen death before . The normal reaction to such a thing would be similar to what Cia had done .

"Why do you think they ran off?" Layla asked Vorden .

"If I was to guess, it would have something to do with Peter again . Logan wouldn't put his neck out on the line like that for no reason . "

"Do you think Logan will be okay again? What if Peter's gotten hungry again and tries to eat Logan?"

Vorden couldn't help but chuckle at Layla's suggestion .

"Impossible . Trust me, by now, you should have been able to tell . Logan is not the one to worry about if the two of them got into a fight . It's Peter . "

Although that might have been the case before . Logan had used up several of his trump cards in the fight against the king tier beast . He was also slightly injured from the battle, and lastly, Quinn had grown stronger from the fight . Which meant, Peter had too .
