A towering figure approached, and Wolf's hollow gaze settled on the newcomer.
With a strained voice, he muttered, “Gab!” Gab crouched down in front of him, his
voice hoarse and subdued. “I didn’t know about what happened back then. The
folks wiretapping Lexi had a beef with Tyrannosaurus, purposely kept information
from me, delaying the rescue. Because of that, I later took that guy out!” Wolf
paused for a moment, and then a look of understanding swept across his face as
he slowly nodded. “I believe you.” His body began to convulse, like the last streak
of twilight on the horizon about to be swallowed by darkness, beyond anyone's
power to save. Estelle fought back tears, her heart aching with grief, the piercing
wind cutting through her like a knife. Wolf looked at Estelle again, speaking softly,
“Look after yourself and the family.” The Crawley family had funded the
development of the virus and the production of weapons. Knowing Estelle was
headed for Tripe, they had made contact with him, ordering him to kill her. He
had turned the tables, luring Estelle to Zion. Even if he wanted to take Estelle
down himself, he wouldn't let anyone else hurt her! With his last ounce of
strength, he pulled a small bottle from his coat and thrust it into Estelle’s hands.
“This will counteract the poison in your system. Live on for all of us.” “Wolf!”
Estelle watched as the man closed his eyes, his final breath carried away by the
wind. She could no longer hold back her tears, sobbing uncontrollably as she
clutched his bloodied body. “Wolf!” Xavier sat on the ground, his large frame
bowed in sorrow. Jonathan had taken down Triceratops and stepped off the
plane, only to see, from a distance, a girl weeping, holding a blood-soaked man,
her body trembling with grief, her cries echoing with despair. The night wind
howled, carrying her sobs like the roar of a beast or the lament of a bird that had
lost its mate. Wolf was dead. Dead again, right before her eyes. Estelle’s long-
standing nightmare had resurfaced, and the pain was as intense as ever, shared
by Jonathan who understood all too well the genuine
depth of feeling beneath her cool exterior. Josiah and Amiee also got off the
plane, and everyone stood silently in the biting wind, sharing in the girl's sorrow,
feeling her pain, yet unable to take it away. Lambert, with his team of Iron
Shadow guards, had just finished the battle downstairs and rushed to the rooftop.
Shocked at the scene before him, he had intended to approach Estelle but
stopped short as snippets of their conversation triggered a rush of memories.
Gab, Wolf, Sniper—these names, he had heard them before! They were Stella's
teammates during that peacekeeping mission. Wolf, in particular, had worked
closely with Stella, their teamwork impeccable, which made his name stand out
in Lambert's memory. Shaken and in disbelief, Lambert's gaze shifted to Estelle,
seeing the girl covered in blood and tears, his heart pounding. She was Stella!
