Chapter 145, Their Debut.
The massive Dusk Wolf Ghoul snarled, its golden eyes examining both Hamza and Nawras as it circled them. The open field at the city's edge gave them space but no cover.Nawras kept his voice low, eyes locked on the beast. "We can't take it head-on. The best strategy is to fight from a distance, we need to use a machine gun or spear. You distract it. I'll look for an opening to hit its weak spot."Hamza wiped sweat from his brow, breathing heavily from their earlier sprint. "And if I get tired before you get your shot? Or worse, if this thing rips me apart first?"Nawras didn't look away from the ghoul. "I believe in you. And you need to believe in me too."Before Hamza could reply, the wolf attacked."Watch out!" Nawras shouted.They split apart as the beast's claws tore through the space between them. Hamza scrambled up the nearest tree, boots scraping bark as he climbed. The wolf snarled, turning upward."Hey, fleabag!" Hamza yelled, firing at the ghoul. The bullets pinged off the

The afternoon sun cast long shadows as Nawras stepped out of his house, his muscles aching from another grueling training session. Before he could take a second breath, his phone buzzed. It was Hamza. "How are you?" Hamza’s voice crackled through the speaker. Nawras rolled his shoulders, wincing. "Exhausted. And you?" "Mission time. Surveillance on Hazim’s crew. Get your gear we’re moving in ten." Nawras frowned. "Since when do we get field assignments? Hazim didn’t want us anywhere near ops after the hospital incident." Hamza chuckled. "Yeah, well, we’re not ‘injured trainees’ anymore. The only way to get better is to dive in. Unless you’re scared?" Nawras exhaled sharply. "I’m not scared. But we don’t even have armor." "Already handled. I’ll talk to Hadi. If he says no, Marwan will convince him." The smirk in Hamza’s voice was audible. Nawras hesitated, then nodded to himself. "Fine. I’m in." As Nawras slung his pack over his shoulder and headed for the door, his f
Chapter 143, The Barrier's Code.
Hadi, Hazim, and Haitham were working at the headquarters, sorting out their plans and what they needed to do.Hadi told Hazim that he had received a message from the association saying they had examined the fluid sample he had given them and discovered it was genetically modified Ghoul saliva. They had tried to interrogate Dr. Abo Jumana to understand what it was about, but he refused to talk.Hazim told him, "Easy, you and Haitham go and make him talk."Haitham got up and said, "Leave it to me, I'll make him sing." Then he left.Now, it was just Hazim and Hadi left. Hazim told Hadi that he had taken a break from his writing job to focus on the headquarters. Hadi said, "You don't have to put your life on hold, I can manage the remaining work."Hazim replied, "No, I made up my mind. I'll finish up the backlog before my break ends. I've decided to go look for Walid myself and put an end to his schemes and cowardice."Hadi asked, "You really think you'll find him?"Hazim smirked and sai
Chapter 142, Moving On.
Ali and Laith were heading down because it was Ali’s turn for surveillance, and Laith tagged along to keep him company. Ali asked Laith, “Don’t you have studying to do?” Laith replied, “Nah, it’s fine. I finished all my assignments. My brother is busy with Hadi and doesn’t have time for me. Yesterday, Hazim woke up early and went to the headquarters to finish paperwork, trying to take some load off Hadi and figure out what to do with the professor.” Ali then asked Laith, “What do you think they’ll do with the professor?” Laith said, “I heard my brother say they’ll probably hand him over to the court after getting the information they need. Most likely, he’ll be imprisoned for kidnapping and carrying out dangerous, suspicious activities, something like that.” Ali fell silent. Laith asked him, “What’s wrong? Why’d you go quiet? Isn’t this what you wanted?” Ali replied, “Of course, I believe he should be held accountable. What bothers me is that his justifications made sens

Hadi stepped out of the headquarters, his mind swirling with chaos. A million thoughts clashed in his head, unanswered questions, unsolved problems, and the crushing weight of responsibility.Haitham noticed his exhaustion and placed a hand on his shoulder. "That's it, go rest. Go see your family, it's been a while since you last saw them."Hadi nodded silently and left.When he finally reached home, he tried to relax, but his thoughts refused to settle. The mysteries piled up like a storm in his mind: the issue of the Golden Armor, the injured knights, Kareem still lying unconscious in a coma, Ali's unresolved issue with the professor they were holding at the headquarters, the relentless hunt for Waleed's remaining followers, and worst of all, Waleed himself.He was the one behind the ghoul's sudden attacks, every time they shattered their defenses, their months of effort gone to waste. It all felt pointless now.Hadi's head throbbed. He was the strategist, the one who had to analyze
Chapter 140, Desperate Pleads.
Malik and Marwan carefully handed the mysterious bottle - its contents swirling with an unnatural hue - to Hadi, who inspected it with narrowed eyes."I'll take this to the union," Hadi said, sealing the bottle in a cloth pouch. "They'll figure out what this liquid is."With that settled, Marwan lingered behind as Malik turned to leave."Stick around," Marwan said, rolling his shoulders. "I'll teach you some boxing. Consider it payback for that pizza you got me yesterday."Malik sighed, rubbing his temple. "I don't have time. I've got a stack of exam papers to grade."Marwan scoffed. "Shame on you! How many tests do you even give your students in a year? At this rate, they'll start calling you 'Professor Nightmare.'"Malik shot him a dry look but didn't argue further. Instead, they moved to the training area, where the rhythmic sound of fists against sandbags filled the air. Around them, workers hammered and drilled, still repairing the damage from the recent attack.As they were trai
