Chapter 167 Don't die
After fighting the minotaur and narrowly avoiding a confrontation with the Beta werewolf, the explorers were now running back through the tunnels they used trying to get to the academy as soon as possible before it was too late.
After a few minutes of running, Jake and the team were now outside of the cave and they could see the soldiers still standing guard with Sergeant Sunny waiting for them.

"What is it? What is wrong?" Sunny asked.
"We need to get to the academy now." Jake said and left it at that as he ran straight for the academy with all the speed he could muster leaving some of them at the back.
While running, Jake glanced beside him and could see Sunny running side by side with him with Alex just a little behind.
"There's going to be an attack soon on the academy and we were betrayed by the Head General known as Gunther." Jake said to Sunny.
Hearing this, Sunny almost stopped running as he was shocked but he kept on running.
"Why would Gunther betray us?" Sunny asked confused by everything.
"I don't know. But he's the one that will answer that question." Jake said.
"When we get to the academy, have all your most trusted men stand ready. And is there a high enough place in the academy?" Jake asked.
"Yes, but I don't have the authority. Maybe Paul might just be able to help." Sunny said.
"Good." Jake said as they were now close to the academy gate.
When they were at the gate, Jake turned around at the rest.
"Alex, Peter and Geo, go and rally the rest and stand ready. Sunny, take me to Paul." Jake ordered as everybody rushed to execute the orders.
Jake and Sunny bolted off towards the academy and there, they saw Paul barking out orders towards his soldiers.
"General Paul, take me to the highest point in the academy." Jake said.
"Why?" Paul asked.
"I don't have much time to explain. But let me brief it down, the forest isn't the only entrance to the cave, multiple entrances has been created that could lead into multiple places in the academy." Jake said.
"What are you waiting for? Let's go." Paul said as he bolted off with Jake not too far from him as they made their way to a separate building in the academy.
This was where the higher authorities stayed and nobody was allowed there. Entering into the building, they could see soldiers guarding and when they saw Paul, they gave him a salute before he rushed off going higher and higher.
"The only place high enough, is the meeting room the Head Generals use. That place allows for them to overlook the whole of Aurora city. With my clearance, I can get you there." Paul explained as they rushed off taking the long stairs.
They finally got to the 3rd floor just below the Head General's meeting room. But they were stopped by soldiers that stood guard with Sergeant Lee in front of them.
"Don't you know who I am?" Paul asked the soldiers.
"We know, but we have been given orders to not allow anybody up there." Sergeant Lee said.
"It's urgent for me to go up there." Paul shouted back.
"Sorry General, orders are…" Lee's words was interrupted by a punch that landed on his face which caused him to go flying back.
"I don't have time to waste." Jake said as he charged forward towards the remaining soldiers that were about to attack them.
"How can this kid have such strength to take out a sergeant with one hit like it was nothing?" Paul asked as he joined Jake in taking care of the remaining soldiers.
"We can't do this alone." Jake said as he avoided a spear strike from one the soldiers and kneed him in the stomach causing him to lose consciousness.
"We need help." Jake said again as he quickly turned to his system and sent a message to all members of the Fang hunters that were in the academy asking for who was available to make their way there.
Responding to this, Kate, Emily and Simyon were heading towards where Jake was. While they were walking together, Sophia spotted them.
"What's going on? Why are you all walking together like that?" Sophia asked.
"It's an emergency. Jake needs us because the school is going to be attacked soon." Kate said trying to get behind Sophia.
"Attack?" Sophia asked but taking Kate's words for it, she decided to join along.
"Then let's go help him." Sophia said and rushed towards the building where Jake was.
Meanwhile Jake and Paul had just finished taking care of the soldiers so they decided to quickly go up there but that was when Jake felt a giant weight about to smash on him.
Quickly rolling away, Jake avoided it by the skin of his teeth and that's when he heard a shout.
"Julian you betrayal!" Paul shouted as he darted right at General Julian.
"A betrayal?" Julian asked as he swung his giant hammer at General Paul who skillfully avoided it.
"I'm just joining the winning side in this war." Julian said as he used his hammer to block the General's sword strike that made him skid back an inch.
"Winning side?" Paul asked angrily as he jumped up and smashed his legs into Julian's side causing him to skid an inch but he didn't twitch in pain.
"We have the big three and you say you joined the winning side?" Paul asked as he narrowly avoided a hammer strike to his head.
"Ha, big three that couldn't even defeat a beta werewolf not to talk of defeating the Alpha werewolf." Julian mocked as he smashed his hammer on the stairs sending out ripples of Qi energy outwardly that struck Paul sending him flying.
Before he could go flying far away, his back hit something. Turning around, he could see that he was being held up by Jake.
"Don't worry, I got you help." Jake said as entering through the door were Sophia, Kate, Emily and Simyon all with their weapons drawn out.
"I'm leaving this to you guys. I need to get up there and see what I need to see." Jake said.
"Simyon, Emily. Come with me." Jake said and they complied as they came over to Jake's side.
Jake was about to set off and buldoze his way through Julian before he looked back.
"The rest of you, I'm giving you an order. Don't die." Jake said.
