The man spotted Wilbur too. He looked at Wilbur warily and said, "Mind your own business, or you will die."
He then waved his arm and the trio got into their UTVs before driving off.
"My gun!" Isabella shouted.
Wilbur frowned. "Don't worry. We will see them again."
"What?" She asked.
Wilbur sighed. "Isn't it obvious? They are here for the ruins as well. We will see them again once we reach the ruins."
Isabella's expression darkened.
She turned around and picked up the satellite phone. Shortly after, she set it down and gazed up at the sky.
Although the sandstorm had ceased, the sky above was still shrouded in dense yellow clouds, preventing sunlight from penetrating through.
"There's no signal," she said and sighed.
Wilbur chuckled. "Let's walk, then."
She glanced at the compass she wore around her wrist and said, "We're heading north. The ruins are roughly 300 kilometers away. We might need a day to get there."
"Let's hurry then," Wilbur said.
Isabella opened the back trunk of the bar and moved all the food and water out. "Let's take all of these."
Wilbur simply picked them up and threw them into the demiplane.
As she watched everything disappearing in Wilbur's hand, Isabella's eyes widened as though she had seen a ghost.
Wilbur smiled. "It's the latest technology in the Department of Paranormal Research and Defense. It's too advanced for me to showcase how it works."
After a long pause, Isabella turned and started marching forward.
Wilbur turned to Ryder. "What a stubborn girl."
Ryder remained quiet and followed Isabella's steps.
Wilbur shook his head at how dull it was to be on a mission with these two people.
