Chapter 981


    Chapter 981 Search for Veronica


    Currently, the way to get the most out of the situation was for Dominik to get Matthew and Veronica out


    of the n. Hence, it was a win for him.


    "Ha! You''re so confident in yourself."


    Xavier sneered.


    It took around ten minutes or more for the Jeep to arrive at the Tempest Bridge of the Deste Cliffs.


    At the other end of the bridge, there was a car with two people standing next to it.


    Matthew honked the horn before stopping the car and getting out to greet them.


    Then, the two cars continued onward with the other car in the front while Matthew and Xavier followed


    behind.


    "We will be more isted the further we go on. Be careful," Xavier uneasily reminded.


    "We''re already past the point of no return."


    Matthew sighed.


    They drove for over 30 minutes before the Jeep arrived at the bottom of Emerald Mountain.


    The two men got out of the car and walked over to Noah.


    Noah was a burly man with tanned skin, dressed entirely in brown with a ck headwrap. Hanging off


    his earlobes were tworge hoops made of bronze.


    He pointed at the Emerald Mountain. "It''s best to park the cars here. There are surveince cameras


    up ahead. We''ll be discovered if we drive in."


    "Lead the way," Matthew said in a very polite manner.


    Noah and hispanion led the way up into the mountain through a rather unused dirt path while


    Matthew and Xavier followed behind.


    They spent a long time going up the mountain, but they never once went down.


    Finally, Xavier lost his temper and burst out at Matthew, "Just where are they taking us?"


    As he did not understand a word of the hidden tongue, his only way ofmunicating with the other


    duo was through Matthew.


    "They told us just now. There are guards at the main entrance. It was safer to go through a secret path


    on top of the mountain that led down to the basement."


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    That was the simple exnation Matthew offered.


    As he heard that, Xavier''s face darkened, and he shot Matthew a re. Nevertheless, he suppressed


    the fury burning in him and did not argue back.


    His goal for the day was to save Veronica. Everything else could be ignored for the moment.


    After a few more minutes of walking, they arrived at a few humongous boulders that were jutting out of


    a steep cliff. The boulders were thoroughly covered in ivy with barely an inch of rock visible.


    Noah walked over to the cliff and slowly climbed over to the boulders using the uneven cliff face. Then,


    he vanished into the wall of ivy.


    The rest of the group cautiously followed him into the ivy and found a secret cave hidden behind the


    nts.


    As they continued several dozen yards further into the cave, it slowly widened from a tiny hole into a


    larger corridor.


    Matthew was only able to see what was going on inside the cave because Noah was lighting the way


    with a shlight at the front of the group. In the vast cave, there was a huge pond with stctites


    hanging over it.


    Noah pointed to the pond and said to Matthew, "We''ll be diving into the pond. After swimming for about


    55 yards, we''ll be inside."


    Xavier, who was now wearing a miniature tranting device, naturally understood what Noah was


    saying now.


    "Please lead the way, Mr. Finnegan," Matthew responded.


    The four of them dove into the water with Noah swimming up ahead once more with the shlight


    showing the way.


    The hidden n was located in a ce with pleasant weather all year round. Thus, the water was only


    mildly chilly.


    They did not swim for long before they spotted a hole in the walls. After swimming through it, they


    continued swimming for over 10 yards before floating to the surface.


    On the shore, they followed Noah''s directions and entered the underground chamber which was a


    magnificent sight to behold with every inch covered in intricate carvings. It was as grand as a pce.


    Matthew had been to the underground chamber before at the Kings Residence. Hence, he was not as


    shocked by the grandeur as Xavier who was thoroughly stunned by what he saw.


    The sight made Xavier feel like he had been teleported into another world, causing his hair to stand on


    end.


    As there was no phone service, it meant there were no cameras there.


    As they hid from nearby patrols, they headed deeper into the chamber until Noah pointed out a small


    building up ahead. "We found Tiffany Larson therest time."
