Captivated by the Ruler of the Underworld
Chapter 244 Inside the Werewolf Association, Strict Hierarchy System

Scarlett hadn't eaten anything in the morning, yet she ran a long distance to find food. Even if she failed to catch any prey, that wouldn't have been the worst outcome. However, she had tumbled into a cave. Not only had she fallen in, but she

also got caught in a trap.

Scarlett was really hungry, tired, and in pain.

Trenton felt something soft pressing against his head. He could clearly sense Scarlett losing strength and her whole body was becoming limp.

Trenton was taken aback.

Furrowing his brows, he said, "Kid, sit up straight."

Seeing Scarlett so weak, Trenton was afraid that just using a little force might kill her.

Moreover, being so close to Trenton, he couldn't shake off a strange feeling running all over his body.

Scarlett didn't listen. She even rubbed her head against Trenton's, and her round eyes started to close. "Big bro. I'm hungry," she said weakly and sweetly.

If Trenton hadn't seen Scarlett's fierce bite and tasted her blood earlier, he might have thought the little girl was just trying to be cute with him.

Scarlett truly defeated Trenton. No one had ever made him feel so powerless before.

Trenton offered, "I'll take you to find food."

Scarlett weakly replied, "Okay."

Scarlett, feeling both hungry, tired, and in pain, was starting to feel sleepy.

Trenton grabbed Scarlett's pale leg and moved forward. He needed to get to the Divine Doctor Association quickly to get help with the wound on her leg. But before that, he had to find some food for Scarlett, or he feared she might starve to death.

As they walked, Trenton suddenly glanced to the side and saw a familiar mark on a big tree, the symbol of the Ironfist Holding Center. Sylvester definitely left this.

Trenton looked around and, with his excellent vision, spotted several more of the same symbols not far away. The direction indicated by these symbols surely led towards the Divine Doctor Association.

The Divine Doctor Association was in the north, but Scarlett had told Trenton it was in the west. He almost fell for Scarlett's deception.

Trenton didn't bother with the tired little girl leaning on his head and continued walking north. There was no need to argue with her.

In the west, at the Werewolf Association,

The Werewolf Association was active in their own territory. But without the guidance of a Werewolf leader, all werewolves were waiting in place for orders.

The Werewolf Association had similar customs to ancient human, and the hierarchy was extremely strict. Without the command of a werewolf leader, not a single wolf dared to act on their own.

A male white wolf stood atop a high mountain peak, with a red female wolf standing beside him. Upon closer inspection, a hint of fierceness could be seen in the red eyes of the male white wolf. Seeing this, the female wolf whimpered and lowered her front paws to the ground in a manner reminiscent of humans taking a bow, seemingly in a state of repentance.

The white wolf snarled at the female wolf, and the female wolf shrank back with tears welling in her eyes and her head even lower.

The female wolf had no idea that Scarlett had disappeared since she woke up from the cave that morning.

The white wolf, however, who was indifferent to Scarlett's absence, let out a cold snort before turning around to depart. With a graceful arc, the agile figure of the white wolf vanished into the foliage in an instant. Meanwhile, Trenton walked on with Scarlett.

Although Silvercrest was vast they had been walking for a long time without encountering a single wild fruit tree where there were various trees.

It was arid in the north with no signs of springs or water sources in the forest, and the sun was scorchingly hot.

Without food or water, it was difficult to replenish and nurture their bodies, and if they encountered any trouble, it would be even more problematic.

At this rate, not only Scarlett but even Trenton may fail to persevere.

Moreover, Trenton was unsure of much farther they needed to trck to reach the Divine Doctor Association in the north, and there was still no signal on his phone.

At that moment, a rustling sound came from his left.

Trenton paused in his steps.
