Chapter 2138

Penulis: A Potato-Loving Wolf
Daniel soon came to his senses. He pondered for a while before saying, “Butler Thompson, I think you can clearly tell what’s going on in front of you.”

“I assure you, Butler Thompson. There is only one solution. We must push the car into the river to stop it from exploding.”

“Even so, doing that carries an extremely high risk. If your lady happened to be very unlucky, the car might explode the moment it enters the river, or if it suddenly suffers a hydraulic shock. Both circumstances can be deadly for her!”

“That’s why you, as her butler, must decide if we’re going to save her or otherwise!”

Daniel was keen enough to take advantage of the situation. Knowing that he would be in hot water should anything wrong happen, he quickly shifted the responsibility to Butler Thompson.

If Daniel was victorious in saving the esteemed lady, then he could hog all the credit and glory.

On the contrary, if he failed and the lady ended up dying in the process, the responsibility would fall on But

    “I don’t know what kind of expert you are, but don’t you know that what you’re doing is extremely risky?” Harvey challenged, trying to control his temper. Daniel’s plan was nothing short of outrageous! “The only way is to pry open the car door right now and take off the seat belt as quick as possible, and then get Ms. Thompson out.”“But all that must be done in a span of three seconds!”“If the rescuer fails, he’ll get dragged into the river along with her!”“If you really are the expert you claim to be, you should be able to tell that this is the only way!”“The only way?”Listening to Harvey’s explanation, Daniel knew that Harvey’s way had some chance of succeeding, even if it may be a slim one.But a true man would not stand behind a collapsing wall. Daniel knew that this rescue attempt would affect his reputation. He refused to carry out Harvey’s plan. “From how I see it, your so-called ‘only way’ doesn’t even have a chance of succeeding unless you give up your life!”

    To make things worse, they saw Harvey as someone who tried to gamble on a woman’s life for his own benefit!‘There’s actually someone who dares to toy with Ms. Thompson’s life! He must have a death wish!’Several beautiful women present were unable to hide their disgust. They glared daggers at Harvey, their faces twisted in scorn and contempt.‘This liar’s really overestimating himself! He’s actually trying to steal the limelight from a safety management expert!’“Even if you do follow his plan, he shouldn’t simply push the car bare-handed. Humans have static electricity in their bodies. There’s a possibility that he might ignite the tank once he touches the car…”Harvey reminded kindly, determined to press on. He really did not want to see the woman dying in vain.“Stop nagging, young man!” Before Harvey could even finish, Butler Thompson immediately cut him off and stopped him.“If you keep stopping us from saving Ms. Thompson, we’ll have to force our hand!”Upon Butler Tho

    The crowd was in an uproar, and everyone was losing their heads from sheer terror.Nobody imagined that things would escalate to this point.To say the situation was dire would be an understatement. Ms. Thompson could die at any minute!On top of it all, she had just woken up. To see herself falling to her death was nothing short of pure torment. “Think of something already!” Butler Thompson yelled desperately, grabbing Daniel’s collar forcefully.Daniel, however, was drenched in his own tears. The proud man from before was reduced to a pathetic crying wreck.“It’s hopeless! There’s no saving her!”“Call the firefighters! Hurry! Call them now!”“She’s going to die! You have to hurry!”Daniel almost passed out, crushed by the pressure. Because Butler Thompson was ready to take responsibility if he failed, he felt that he could shift the blame to the old man. Unfortunately for Daniel, nothing went as planned. The Thompson family from Wolsing was one of the top ten families

    “Get out of the way! The car might explode again!”“Stay away from the car! Don’t get caught in the explosion!”It took only ten seconds for Harvey to emerge from the crowd. He stood before everyone as he yelled several warnings. “Someone lend me a pair of gloves!”A person from the crowd threw a pair of rubber gloves to the ground. Harvey did not hesitate and grabbed them quickly. He put them on both hands and dashed to the exploding Lamborghini.The crowd watched him and breathed a collective sigh of relief. Compared to Daniel, who was just showing off, they could tell that Harvey really was trying to save Ms. Thompson. Even in the most dire of situations, he did not panic and kept a cool head.“He’s not scared at all when facing danger. Now that’s a true professional—a true expert!”“Be careful, Mr. Expert!”“Stop trying to fawn on him already! Think of a way to move your cars away! The fire brigade’s about to be here!”“...”Harvey completely ignored the crowd, uncarin

    Seeing Ms. Thompson’s terrible pallor, Harvey swiftly reached out and pressed his hands on her chest. He then blew air into her mouth a few times, uncaring of how inappropriate his actions may have appeared.Fwoooo!After a moment, the woman let out a small grunt before coughing uncontrollably.She coughed again, and blood came out of her lips. However, her breathing had returned to normal and she was no longer in danger.Harvey let out a sigh of relief at the sight. He then stood up and turned to Butler Thompson.“Alright! It’s fine now.”“Just in case, you should get her to the hospital for a check-up when the ambulance comes.”“Also, when she gets better, don’t let her drive fast cars. If she doesn’t know how to control cars with high horsepower, it’ll be easy for her to get into another similar accident.”“I understand, I understand! Thank you so much, Mister!”Butler Thompson nodded repeatedly, his head bobbing up and down without stopping. The high and mighty attitude he

    “Oh, my savior…”Teresa Thompson sighed mournfully. She was anxious to catch up to Harvey before he disappeared, but after taking a few steps, she started panting loudly. The accident had left her so weakened, she could not run.“M’lady, you don’t have to chase after him.”Butler Thompson approached her and showed Harvey’s picture on his phone.“I just took a picture of him. Rest assured, M’lady. With the Thompson family’s power, it won’t be hard to find just about anybody!”“Besides, since he’s so capable, it’ll be easier to track him down.”Teresa let out a sigh of relief at her butler’s words. Since she was born and raised in a powerful family, she naturally had a sensible mind.“Butler Thompson, we must carry this out in secret,” Teresa whispered, narrowing her eyes meaningfully. “Either my savior has an extraordinary identity, or he has secrets that he doesn’t want anyone to know.”“If we try to find him, we mustn’t harm him.”“Don’t worry, M’lady. I know what to do,”

    Harvey entered the hall. Inside were many ladies decked in jewelry and men clad in expensively tailored leather suits. They all carried the bearings of the rich.Simon and Xynthia were hiding in the corner of a room, looking very drained.Lucie and her son, on the other hand, were engaged in an unending shouting match with the angry car owners. “Pay up! Give us the money right now!”“So what if you live in a Fragrant Hill villa?! You think you can just drive into the regal villa’s parking spot and crash into our cars?!”“You better pay up right now!”“I don’t care who you are! If you don’t pay up right now, I’ll call the cops!”After listening to the chaos for a short while, Harvey came to understand the situation at hand. It was a known fact that every villa in Fragrant Hill had independent garages. As Nicolas had not been here before, he did not know.So, he ended up parking the Toyota Alphard at the regal villa’s parking lot which was across the street. In the process, he r

    Lucie began jumping up and down furiously, agitated. She was already at a huge disadvantage while arguing with the angry regal villa residents. Then the ignorant driver, Harvey, came along to insult her!She wanted nothing more than to wring her hands around Harvey’s neck and choke him until he dropped dead.“Can you at least be a bit reasonable, Aunty Lowe?!” Xynthia suddenly spoke up. She had been silent all this time, until she could no longer hold herself back. “Since Brother Nicolas was the one who crashed into everyone’s cars, you should be the one to apologize and pay them what you owe! Why are you trying to mortgage our villa?! We didn’t have anything to do with it!”“Besides, the villa belongs to my Brother-In-Law…!”But before Xynthia even finished her sentence, Lucie’s eyes flashed slyly. The woman tapped her head, acting as though she had just remembered something important. “Oh my! I was so angry, I couldn’t think straight!”“Let me introduce everyone to this ma

    Once Harvey was at the Dragon Gate training hall, he narrowed his eyes.A huge crowd was right outside the entrance of the training hall. He counted at least a thousand of them with just a glance.They were all either martial arts elites or mutants. None of them were normal human beings.Of course, these people were mostly here to watch the show.There were also plenty of Islander men and women in their traditional summer garbs. All of them looked quite eager. Harvey could tell from first glance that they were either from Sky Plane or had the right to enter Grand City due to being at the top of the social pyramid in the Island Nation. All of them were filled with anger and resentment after Harvey chided them as weaklings. They were here to try and reclaim their dignity.When Harvey appeared, all of them instantly turned around. The anger within their eyes is apparent."Harvey York! Are you sure you want to go your own way? You're quite brave to challenge the entire Island Natio

    "Dominating the Veiled Sanctuary?" Harvey asked Alexei curiously.Alexei scoffed. "Many years ago, a prodigy was born in the Veiled Sanctuary. He was said to be just a servant born into a small family. However, his powers grew exponentially after he accidentally learned martial arts."He became a King of Arms when he was 18, and then a True Warrior at 22. After that, he secretly stole the martial arts techniques from all the schools and mastered them. Finally, when he was 30 years old, he created his own martial art technique that had never appeared in the Veiled Sanctuary—the Technique of Elephants and Dragons."It's said that those trained in this technique can possess the power of ten elephants and ten dragons. They can forcefully tear apart space itself and step into the void, reaching unity between Man and Nature. Unfortunately, he has too little influence in Veiled Sanctuary. He stole too many secrets from the different schools, causing him to offend the higher-ups."In the

    "Of course, only people from Grand City are supporting him. Whether it was Sky Plane, Sky Garden, Lost City, or the other locations, everyone criticized Harvey. They believed that we should have peace with all the other Sacred Lands. Harvey's existence would only cause fights between all of us."But the so-called peace from these Sacred Lands were only maintained because they were able to benefit from Grand City. Once Harvey's here and becomes mayor, the other Sacred Lands won't be able to get used to it," Geoffrey said.He was obviously quite pleased with this.For a long time, Grand City needed someone who could take control of the big picture. One of the reasons the E-A Battlefield occurred in the past was because the mayor went missing, and all the other Sacred Lands believed they could take advantage of this situation. That was why the five nations had worked together at the time.Luckily, the Chief Instructor was there at the time. He helped them defeat all their enemies and

    When Harvey remembered that Vaida was schizophrenic, he suppressed the discomfort inside of him and smiled. "Ms. Vaida, why didn't you go back to rest? Isn't it boring to be at my place?"Vaida opened the door leading to the dining room. "I don't feel bored at all. I've been cooking for you the entire day. Since you're the man of my destiny, I'm simply doing what I'm supposed to, aren't I?"Cough!Harvey couldn't stop himself from coughing before saying, "Thanks, then.""That won't do, Senior Vaida! We grew up together and have known each other for almost two decades. You've never cooked for me. What's this, then? Do I really have no place in your heart?" Alexei said, almost to the point of crying and rolling on the ground.Vaida shot him a disappointed look. "Oh, you! Look at yourself. Are you acting like a man? I'm not expecting you to become an important person, but even if you're set on being someone spoiled rotten, can you at least be like a proper one? I heard that when I

    With just a simple move, the Islander swordsman screamed in pain and crashed to the ground. He didn't even have the chance to spar with Harvey.An Islander wrestler immediately rushed out of the crowd. "I dare you to try me, Harvey!" Harvey calmly kicked a chair at the wrestler, who didn't even manage to enter the door before collapsing on the ground."Fool!""Die!"One by one, the Island Nation's elites attacked, but none of them could pass through the entrance into the training hall before collapsing.Harvey's technique was indeed very terrifying. What Harvey did without exerting much effort turned all the Islanders' excitement into despair. All the Islanders that had collapsed had some reputation in Grand City. But now, they were nothing before Harvey.Meanwhile, those from Country H were overjoyed. Many of them started to go around and spread the good news throughout Grand City.Harvey's reputation had spread in Grand City. A lot of people knew that the representative of

    "All you Islanders are always acting so arrogantly in our territory. You'll sneer at us, calling us weaklings every now and then. Now, we simply stated the fact that you're weaklings too—and you find it hard to accept? Don't you understand that you should treat others how you like to be treated? If you're not weaklings before him, what are you then? Feces?"Hale shouted at the Islanders fearlessly, feeling refreshed as he did it. He seemed to have suffered a lot at the hands of Sky Plane, so he didn't hold back when he started his speech. It was enough to make the Islanders hear it go mad.However, Hale wasn't scared at all. Instead, he pointed at the Islanders and went on, "Yapping of sore losers."The Islander with the mustache almost went crazy. "Do you know what you're doing? You're trying to start a war! Can you bear this responsibility?"The other Islanders also joined in; all of them called for war, as if that would be enough to threaten Harvey. However, Hale didn't even b

    Harvey couldn't tell what Hale was up to by borrowing his influence, but he knew very well that what he needed to do right now was to liven Grand City up. It would be best if he could cause a wave. Only then would he have the opportunity to achieve his goals.That was why he didn't stop Hale, despite not knowing what Hale was up to. Instead, Harvey let Hale do as he wanted.Hale took a deep breath. His eyes carried a meaningful gaze as he looked at Harvey, and he said with a dry smile, "What I'm going to do is to be quite intense, but I believe you can take it."Harvey chuckled. "Is it the kind that I prefer?""I don't know if you'll like it, but I believe you won't hate it," Hale said.Harvey clapped. "Sure. Let me see just how much of a ruckus your method that I won't hate will cause in Grand City!"Hale didn't waste his breath and grabbed a white piece of cloth and started painting something. Then, he immediately put it at the entrance of the training hall. As soon as the clot

    There was cheer from the crowd when they saw how Harvey could easily defeat those from the Sky Plane and win back the pride of Grand City and the people from Country H.At this time, a middle-aged man, somewhat short and plump, approached Harvey with admiration on his face. "The way you fight is brilliant, friend. Most importantly, you managed to defeat the haughty Islanders without any trouble. Simply brilliant! You've won all our admiration!""That's right!" The people in the crowd all nodded, the admiration on their faces clear.It was said that amateurs watch the show for excitement, while the experts grasp the details. However, the people who formed the crowd this time were mostly martial arts elites. They understood just how powerful Harvey was from how he easily defeated Kuro, Mikan, and the other Islanders."It doesn't matter whether I earn your admiration or not," Harvey said with a faint smile as he entered the training hall. "Since you're not my training hall's student

    In that instant, all the elites from Origin Fist could only gasp. They didn't know how to react when they saw what happened. Normally, once Harvey gave Kuro the chance to turn the table around, Kuro should have the advantage.But the result?Kuro was being stepped on, and he didn't even have the power to resist. Before Harvey's strength, he was just too weak."Not only can't you fight, but you're also making me very disappointed," Harvey said as he squatted and patted Kuro's face. It was a simple action, but it was enough to humiliate Kuro completely."Stop wasting time here, kid. I acknowledge that I've been careless, and I acknowledge that I'm not as skilled as you. I surrender!" The expression on Kuro's face was one of stubbornness. "If you can, kill me! I'm telling you, even if I die, the Origin Fist will never let you go! No matter who you are, you'll die in the hands of Origin Fist! If I die, your whole family will die with you!""How naïve," Harvey said with a smile. In t
