As the saying goes, every team must have these five types of people: the tiger that guards the mountain, the eagle with foresight, the battle-ready wolf, the agile leopard, and the troublemaking stick.
Clearly, Daniel was that stick.
He was like a disaster magnet, with mischief and misfortune written all over him. Anything involving Daniel was guaranteed to end badly.
Just like now.
Left with no choice, Chloe had to bring people to help Daniel fix the tal fra spring bed.
Chloe asked, "Tell honestly, how on earth did you manage to jump on this bed and turn it into such a wreck?"
There was a large hole in the middle of the tal fra spring bed, with jagged edges. One could vaguely make out that soone had fallen through it.
Daniel's face and head were covered in scratches from the tal wires, but he still bravely acted as Chloe's assistant, handing her tweezers while saying:
"It was just an accident."
Daniel tried to defend himself and shirk responsibility:
"I really didn't use much force at all. I just bounced on it casually like usual, who knew it would break? It must be too fragile."
He declared earnestly: "Maybe those cunning soldiers in the camp deliberately gave a poor quality tal bed fra to break."
Hearing this, Qin Huaibei rolled his eyes:
"Co on, they wouldn't bother to make trouble for you unless they had nothing better to do."
Daniel grumbled quietly under his breath while timidly handing tools to Chloe, afraid she might turn around and hit him once she ca to her senses.
Fortunately, Chloe was too busy to pay attention to him at the mont.
She and Katherine worked on opposite sides, using tweezers, pliers, and various other tools to twist the wires back into place.
By the ti the entire bed was repaired, dawn was already breaking outside the camp.
Chloe handed the spring bed over to other soldiers for inspection, and only then was Daniel allowed to leave.
Outside, the moon was setting and the stars were fading. Daniel sincerely expressed his apologies and promised that he would be more careful in the future, absolutely not causing any more trouble for his companions.
Chloe expressed her disbelief.
Qin Huaibei and Katherine felt the sa way.
This successfully angered Daniel to the point of fuming, and he ran several ters away, refusing to speak to them.
It took Qin Huaibei a few hours of coaxing to finally calm him down.
The situation in Puze County was temporarily settled.
For Xavier and the entire Vampire race, dealing with a traitor who had colluded with the Werewolf Race was naturally a cause for celebration. However, for the Werewolf Race, it ant losing an extrely useful pawn.
They were understandably furious.
Not to ntion, news of Kan's failed attempt to cause trouble in the Vampire's Puze County and subsequent defeat had reached the Wolf King's ears, causing panic among the upper echelons of the Werewolf Race.
No one dared to provoke the Wolf King at this ti.
The current Wolf King of the Werewolf Race was in his pri, having only been in power for a hundred years. He was full of ambition, but his plans had been constantly derailed from the very beginning.
First, there were those experintal unknown monsters that had been released at the Joint Military Academy Competition venue.
These creatures, whether docile or vicious, should have logically beco agitated when placed in a completely unfamiliar environnt.
But in the end, not only did they not harm students from other race's military academies, they were all captured by The No.1 Military Academy for research.
For the Werewolf Race, this was undoubtedly a great humiliation.
Their carefully planned conspiracy not only failed but ended up benefiting others. How could they not be angry?
Adding to that, hearing that his confidant's son, along with his bodyguards, had all fallen at the hands of that little Vampire lady, made the Wolf King even angrier.
Kan was brought to the Werewolf Race's high-level eting room.
The lone silver modern building in the prival forest stood out conspicuously, tall and magnificent, gleaming in the sunlight.
As Kan was led up, he looked up and saw the Wolf King.
Majestic, terrifying, with an aura that chilled one to the bone.
Kan's legs started shaking as soon as he entered.
He bowed respectfully and greeted, "My Lord..."
The Wolf King cut him off directly:
"I heard that when you went to cause trouble in Puze County, you were taught a lesson by that little Vampire princess?"
Kan's face imdiately showed an embarrassed expression. He rubbed his nose and said reluctantly:
"It was an accident. Mainly because the bodyguards weren't prepared at the ti, and we underestimated her..."
Before he could finish, the Wolf King impatiently interrupted him:
"Enough, shut up."
His golden eyes flashed with a faint light: "Lack of ability is simply lack of ability. You don't need to make excuses for them to save face."
The Wolf King spoke coldly: "What you need to reflect on now is why she is so much stronger than you when you are both cubs of the sa age group."
Kan: "..."
He lowered his head deeply, but there was little remorse or self-reproach in his eyes.
Chloe, always Chloe.
Why did everyone have to compare them?
During the Joint Military Academy Competition, the audience in the live broadcast said the sa thing, and now back in their own territory, even the Wolf King was doing this...
Was this Chloe really that great?!
Kan's eyes were full of jealousy and hatred.
Little did he know that all his ntal activities were clearly written on his face, and the Wolf King could read all of Kan's inner thoughts with just a glance.
He looked away disinterestedly, pondered for a mont, and finally said:
"Since this little lady of the Vampire race is so renowned, it wouldn't be unreasonable to invite her to visit our Werewolf Race as a guest, would it?"
As his words fell, the eting room fell into silence.
After a long while, soone finally picked up the topic:
"What if Miss Chloe doesn't want to..."
Before he could finish, the person received an icy glare:
"If she doesn't agree, can't you find a way to bring her here?"
"Fool who doesn't know how to adapt."
The person imdiately fell silent.
According to the Wolf King's aning, whether Chloe agreed or not, she had to "visit" their Werewolf Race.
This matter couldn't be bungled. If possible, they should also be careful to avoid Xavier, to prevent alarming others and causing a big commotion.
This was not an easy task.
...
They didn't stay in Puze County for too long. The border was far away, and the conditions were relatively harsh. During these days, Chloe often wandered the streets, frequently buying things from various stalls, successfully boosting the economy of an entire night market.
She spent money like water, becoming sothing of a god of wealth throughout the night market.
Everyone loved Chloe, and everyone loved Chloe's money even more.
When it was ti for them to return to the Vampire King City, the streets of Puze County were lined with citizens who had co to see them off.
They held various local specialties in their hands - so edible, so for play - and kept tossing them onto the carriage.
Daniel was struck on the head by an apple right in the middle of the street. He instantly collapsed onto the ox cart, refusing to get up no matter what.
And with that, their journey to Puze County ca to a definitive end.
