"Someone's invading, someone's invading..."
The seven of Jacob, advancing towards the villa, paused at the words.
Then they looked towards the horn hidden in the bushes.
"Damn, we've been spotted, Jacob..."
Isaac looked at Jacob.
"Since we've been spotted, there's no need to rush! The nearest villa isn't far from here. Sophia, can you sense anyone around?"
Sophia shook her head.
"No, and it seems like there's no one inside the villa either. But because of the walls blocking, my perception might not be accurate. You guys can go in and check!"
"Let's go!"
Jacob immediately commanded the group to rush towards the nearest villa.
The villa door was unlocked, and the seven entered smoothly.
They split up, coordinating tacitly, three going upstairs, three circling the first floor and basement.
Only Sophia stood in the living room waiting for a moment.
"No one on the third floor!"
"No one on the second floor!"
"No one in the basement or first floor either!"
Soon, the group quickly scanned the villa.
This was the villa Fiona and her group occupied, and since they were outside, naturally they couldn't find anyone.
"Huh? Did they all run to another villa?"
Jacob wondered aloud.
"Let's go, let's go to the other villa!"
The seven immediately filed out, heading towards Elijah's villa not far away.
...
Charlotte realized something was wrong, immediately grabbed her longsword and sprinted towards the villa.
She was already an athlete, with long legs, and now awakened abilities, greatly enhancing her strength. Running now was like lightning.
"Hey? Wait for me!"
Lily reacted a step too late, immediately losing sight of Charlotte's figure.
"Do you think I'm stupid?" Charlotte disdainfully curled her lips.
In reality, she was quite relieved. Fortunately, she arrived in time and didn't let them into the villa. Otherwise, Bella and Katherine would be in danger. She had to reveal herself reluctantly, just to attract their attention and make them ignore the possibility of someone being inside the villa.
"Thud! Thud!"
At that moment, heavy footsteps resounded. The few hidden figures noticed another person running behind the woman who had just appeared. She was also a woman, but her chest was too exaggerated, her face looked quite tender, and she held a huge axe in her hand.
Isaac was also stunned! Who was this woman he didn't recognize?
"Charlotte sis, I'm here!" Lily said and stood beside Charlotte. The little dog fell behind, panting, resting by the side. Ultimately, it couldn't match Lily's stamina and fell behind!
"Lily, you have a chance to go to the villa gate to protect Bella and the others. I'll catch these rats!" Charlotte whispered to Lily.
Just then, one of the figures on the ground suddenly sprang up and lunged at Charlotte.
"Not dead? Pretending to be dead?"
Without time to think, Charlotte instinctively aimed her gun at him.
"Bang!"
The bullet hit him, sending a spray of stones, but his figure was unaffected.
"Hmm?" Charlotte was surprised. Even Abigail's defensive ability couldn't withstand bullets!
"Charlotte sis, watch out!" Lily exclaimed.
Charlotte agilely dodged the opponent's heavy punch, countered with a kick with her right leg, striking the opponent. It felt like kicking a wall, making Charlotte's leg numb, but at least it pushed the opponent back two steps.
Charlotte finally saw the opponent's face and the skin exposed outside, which seemed to be covered with a layer of stone.
"Petrification?"
"Hehe, that's right! Little girl, I'm not afraid of your gun!" Theodore chuckled.
His awakened ability allowed him to attach a highly defensive Petrification layer to his body surface by absorbing soil and stones, making him fearless against most attacks! The only drawback was that activating the ability required some time to absorb soil, and his body became less agile.
Just now, the bullet hit his Petrification skin.
"Charlotte sis, let me deal with him! He's not afraid of guns, right? Then let him taste the power of my axe!" Lily said and raised the axe, fiercely swinging it towards him.
The huge axe seemed weightless as it floated towards Theodore. But wherever the axe went, it brought up a whistling gale.
"Theodore, watch out!" Jacob loudly warned.
Sensing something amiss, Theodore immediately rolled to the side, not attempting to resist.
With a loud bang, when he turned back to look, there was a deep pit where he had just stood!
"Damn it!"
He couldn't help but curse.
