Chapter 241 Walking Into a Trap
“Arghhh!”
Finished
Just as things were about to take a deadly turn, a savage let out a fierce shout. They began to fight back. against the pirates, launching a fierce assault.
The next moment, one of the pirates cursed as he dodged the ambush from the savages.
This sudden reversal gave Seraphina and Kaveh a moment to catch their breath.
“Don’t kill anyone! A large group of savages is coming–if we provoke them, we’ll all be dead. We need to retreat now!”
One of the pirates shouted.
The situation had reversed quickly. The savages were more united than expected and quickly rallied together. Those who had scattered earlier now armed themselves with makeshift weapons, viciously swinging branches at the intruders.
Reluctantly, the pirates retreated. When they ran out of bullets and were captured, they knew they were trapped.
They fled quickly, injuring a few savages along the way. In a chaotic pursuit, the rest of the tribe chased after them.
Seraphina and Kaveh exchanged a glance. Their complexions were pale, but they managed a smile of relief, having narrowly escaped death.
Despite the temporary safety, Kaveh remained vigilant, carefully scanning the surroundings for any remaining savages.
“Let’s take a different path. We don’t want to run into them again.”
Seraphina, trusting his expertise, nodded in agreement.
As they left, roaring engines filled the air.
The whirring noise of helicopters was unmistakable-and there were more than one.
“Those are the UH–60 Black Hawk‘ helicopters! It’s the military!”
Kaveh looked up and suddenly said.
Seraphina’s eyes welled with tears of relief, almost bursting with joy. She could barely contain her
excitement.
“They must be here to save me! They finally found me She exclaimed, her voice thick with emotion.
For a moment, she thought she might actually die here
The weight pressing on her chest–the heavy burden that nearly broke her spirit–seemed to lift as the sound of the helicopters roared above. She felt like a beacon of hope was summoning them.

Chapter 241 Walking Into a Trap
On this dark night, it felt as if they were her lifeline and ray of hope.
She ran faster than she ever had, the adrenaline propelling her forward.
Finished
Kaveh was equally thrilled. He found another route back, glancing over his shoulder to check on her as they ran.
“Miss, we’re getting out of here together, right? You’re not going to leave me behind, are you?”
Seraphina looked at him and beamed, despite their situation.
“Of course not!”
“Once we’re back, no matter what happens, you won’t forget about me, okay?”
“Don’t worry, you can count on me to live comfortably for the rest of your life!”
Seraphina joked. She thought he might be worried she’d turn her back on him.
What was one more person to take care of? She could certainly afford it.
For the next twenty minutes, they ran like their lives depended on it.
Seraphina stumbled several times. The torn and filthy clothes barely resembled their original state.
Her once soft, pale hands were now covered in cuts, and the blood was a chilling sight.
She didn’t care, and she never let a cry of pain escape her lips.
