Betrayal

The fight outside the cave entrance was getting more and more ruthless by the second. Half of the Blood Path Apprentices had already perished. And although no one from the Strike Team had died yet, all of them were severely wounded.

None of them could provide support to each other as they were fighting multiple opponents at once. Even someone as resilient as Henry was finding it difficult to gain the upper hand.

After all, all of them had just finished a battle against Transcendents earlier and now they had to fight again. And throughout the entire battle, Alfredo hadn't made a move yet. Hence, they had to look out for his attacks as well.

Things were getting dire. Moreover, upon Alfredo's instruction, the first thing all the Blood Path Apprentices did, was to break or separate the Strike Team members' signal flare gun from them.
