"Where's Raelith Rhodes?"
Maedryn Cobb was surprised, but he remained calm, being an outsider here.
Carson Flores made a surprised expression, "Wasn't he with you?"
Maedryn Cobb stared into Carson's eyes and said coldly, "After you were chased away by the Crystal Scorpions, he went after you..."
Carson looked puzzled, "He didn't show up, several Crystal Scorpions were chasing me, and I was running aimlessly, heading downward, which attracted more Crystal Scorpions. I led them in circles and finally used some life-saving measures to hide myself in the sand, suppress my aura, and avoid the Scorpions' search."
"Those Scorpions couldn't find me, circled around for a while, and then each went their separate ways. That's when I found the opportunity to leave... There are Scorpions everywhere down there, could he have met with trouble?"
Maedryn Cobb stared at Carson's eyes, then spoke solemnly after a few seconds, "Let's wait a bit longer."
"Alright!"
