Runemaster in the Last Days novel Chapter 112

When Amelia reached the research institute, she immediately found Ruby who was staying outside.

"Ruby, you’re not working?"

"It’s my turn to take a break," Ruby replied with a smile. "Do you want to go inside?"

If it was anyone else, Ruby would never ask this question. But the people from the Jones Family were different because this base basically belonged to them. Even if Amelia went into the research institute, no one would dare to say anything to her.

Amelia waved her hand. "You know I won’t understand anything even if I go inside. Let’s go and see Sophia. I heard that she’ll come here today."

"Did you manage to contact her?" Ruby asked again.

The communication device has been more or less restored but only to a certain degree. For example, they still found it difficult to contact people from other cities and there were many times when the connection was so bad that they had to wait for a long time.

After all, the connection provider would not prioritize ordinary people but only some people who were important.

"Yes." Amelia nodded. "She’s with the military along with a few other young masters and young misses. They will come here to reunite with their family."

"I see." Ruby nodded.

She knew that the people who lived in this area used to be influential people and the military naturally prioritize saving their family members. Even if the world had changed, there were still some things that had not changed.

One of them was the fact that the Jones Family still controlled a large number of resources and these people had to work for them if they wanted a part of it.

As for rebelling against the Jones Family?

They would be killed directly.

It was also through this incident that the existence of warrior and mages were basically exposed to the public for the first time. And knowing that these people were much stronger than ordinary humans…

No one dared to offend them.

Of course, this matter was not known to everyone for the time being and only a small part of people knew about it. But so far, it was enough. The others knew that there were magic beasts outside and thought that only the military could protect them.

So they were working obediently.

"I miss the others," Amelia murmured.

Their chat group, that usually filled with various chats were completely empty in the past week. It hasn’t been that long ever since they came to the base, but Amelia already felt that their current life was a bit annoying.

She missed the time when they were still in the academy and able to do many things without the need to worry too much. But now, they had to worry about these magic beasts and whether they could stay alive or not.

It was somewhat frustrating.

"Don’t worry, I believe they’re fine," Ruby said but even she herself couldn’t really believe her words.

The main reason why she could survive was because she stayed with Amelia and Riya. One was a swordswoman while the other had some mysterious ability. While Ruby didn’t probe deeper, she knew that these two people were far more powerful than ordinary people. _{freёwebnovel.com}
