Chapter 160- Too Hard To Turn Down

Staring at the small puddle of water he had in his hand, Talon stood there silently. A myriad of thoughts crossed his mind in a split second before he looked up at the river.

"Leader? What happened?" The group quickly approached him.

"The river had completely mixed with the sea. The water is salty now." He replied. "Dammit, give me the walky-talky."

The students were confused as to why Talon's mood suddenly soured but they still quickly rummaged through their belongings before they handed him the device.

Talon then pressed one button and talked. "Hey, Hyun-Jae, do you copy?"

A few seconds later, a voice responded to him. "Hyun-Jae here, I do copy."

"Did you reach the river yet?"

"Yes, we're here… The water is salty." The girl replied.

Rubbing his face gently, Talon took a deep breath. "We should meet up now. Tell Chin-Hwa and the others."

"Roger… I'm on my way."
