"Alright! I want to celebrate at the most expensive place in Bloomington!""Okay, I'll follow your lead!"Winston smiled as he accompanied Matilda and Marilyn to the lobby on the first floor.Just as they came out, they saw the lobby crowded with police officers.Winston subconsciously reached into his jacket pocket.The talismans that were supposed to be in his pocket had turned to ashes.Liam took the lead and went directly to Winston, saying, "Winston Jovy, you're under arrest."Winston did not explain anything but looked at Matilda and said with a smile, "Looks like I can't fulfill that promise!"Matilda froze in place, not understanding what was happening.Winston cooperatively put on the handcuffs and was taken away by the police officers. Only then did Chad appear.Matilda looked at Chad and suddenly realized what was going on.She angrily said, "I dislike Winston, but you don't have to play dirty for this! Is there any reason to do that?""I don't know what you're t
"How deep is this place?" Chad climbed down the ladder on the well wall, but it seemed to have no end.Weldon said, "The air-raid shelters in Bloomington are well-known nationwide. They say it can accommodate up to 500,000 people, and underneath is a super-large reservoir used to store drinking water."Swoosh!Suddenly, there was a sound of something breaking the wind, which startled Chad. He quickly asked, "Did something fall?"Weldon replied, "Must have been a stone."However, after a long time, there was no sound of the stone landing.Chad exclaimed, "Is it that deep? Why can't we hear the sound of it landing?"Weldon remained silent. Chad suddenly realized the problem.The fragrance of perfume was in the air, suggesting the presence of a woman.Then Weldon said, "Fifty meters!""What do you mean?" Chad asked."I mean, the water reservoir in the air-raid shelter is 50 meters deep. At the bottom, there's often an underground river."Weldon continued to climb down, introdu
Both sides were in a deadlock, eager to see who would give in first.With a third party appearing, in the confusion of not knowing friend from foe, no one dared to make a move.However, Monte was decisive. After shouting for their retreat, he immediately prepared to leave.Monte led his men to run up from the bottom of the pit as if it were level ground, disappearing into the air-raid shelter."No!"Meanwhile, Dark Phoenix, who had been hiding in the shadows, saw Monte and his group preparing to leave and chased after them.At that moment, Chad shouted, "Old Dog, are you alright?""Kid, it's you! I'm fine. Just wait for a bit. I'll have Lord Fifth and Miss Sixth bring us up!"Doug's voice could be heard from the bottom of the pit, then two giant pythons climbed out, each carrying a person on its back.Through his Clairvoyant Eye, Chad saw that Doug and the two giant pythons' auras were weak, indicating they were significantly spent.Several people lay in disarray, already dea
No! It was not Youlee. She was not even an immortal, let alone a sage.However, no one was a sage among Chad's friends and relatives! Could Doug be mistaken?Seeing Chad's puzzled expression, Doug seemed to understand something and coughed lightly."Don't overthink it, kid. Let's go! Let Lord Fifth and Miss Sixth take us away from here!"A few minutes later, the giant pythons carried them back to the cave entrance. Lord Fifth did not come out. Instead, it went deeper into the air-raid shelter.After Miss Sixth possessed Janice, the original giant python body also crawled back into the air-raid shelter.Chad called Marilyn on his phone. "Marilyn, bring the car over."Not long after that, Marilyn arrived in the car.Doug smiled in understanding when he saw Marilyn; he was sure Chad had no idea.It was evident that Marilyn had something suppressing her strength, or Chad would have noticed it a long time ago.After they sent Doug back, the man stopped them just before they drove
Zach growled, "The mob suddenly attacked the police, injuring and killing many people, and rescued a major criminal, too!"Chad asked, "Is it Winston?""How do you know that?" Zach asked in astonishment."I'm not asking about that. Do you know which direction they ran off to?" Chad asked."They went south! And they abducted Mr. Yaseer, too! These guys kill without blinking an eye. We can only hope to enforce a city-wide lockdown to quickly get them out of the densely populated areas before they act again!"Chad approved of Zach's approach. After all, those people were either martial artists or Mystics. The consequences would be terrible once they started killing indiscriminately.A police officer reported, "They left urban areas from the south, and they left Mr. Yaseer behind. We've dispatched drones and other personnel to monitor their escape route."Chad suddenly felt that something was amiss.Winston should not be fleeing so urgently. With Hector's connections, he could have
In the video, Coco hid in an abandoned room and recorded herself. She said, "Chad, I've been kidnapped and imprisoned in the temple outside the southern city on Mount Gentleman. Please come rescue me, argh!"The video abruptly ended with the sounds of someone snatching her phone. After a loud slap, it cut off abruptly.Due to improper development, Mount Gentleman was an abandoned tourist area outside the southern city. The road leading up the mountain was destroyed; that was the first time anyone had ventured there in years.Winston and his group had fled in that direction, and Mount Gentleman was their best hiding place.Quickly redialing Coco's number, Chad received no answer.Zach immediately wanted to mobilize the police forces, but Chad stopped him."Wait, Mr. Jovy, those people aren't ordinary folks. Sending the police will only increase casualties.""This isn't the time to consider casualties. As the mayor of Bloomington, I must do something."Zach's thoughts were differ
Normal people breathed 15 to 20 times per minute, while martial artists generally breathed once per minute."This is the person he wants, so don't get any ideas. Mr. Jovy has been with quite a few women lately. Go look at the others.""But they're all taken, or I wouldn't have come.""Then go wait in line. This one has been set aside."They had caused such a significant disturbance in Bloomington, so they would definitely be surrounded. Yet, they seemed fearless.It greatly puzzled Chad. Additionally, the mention of someone in Saffronesia made Chad think of Balaro.Chad did not rush in to save Coco because of that. Instead, he planned his escape route along the walls toward the temple's main entrance.However, as soon as he arrived at the main entrance, he heard gunshots from the temple!Then he saw Riker holding a fully automatic rifle and starting to massacre those martial artists.In theory, ordinary professional soldiers would have less than a ten percent chance of covertl
The engineers skillfully placed explosives and detonated them before continuing the process to the next room. Any martial artist who tried to stop the engineers was shot dead by Riker.At that moment, Riker alone commanded the scene, making Winston and the others dare not to show themselves."You old bastard, that's enough!"Finally, Winston stepped out. He was enveloped in a visible golden light, with a crown behind his forehead.Riker was surprised but coldly said, "So you've become an earthbound immortal after all. No wonder you dared to touch my granddaughter!"Winston retorted angrily, "I admit that Kelly was an accident, so I didn't touch her!"Riker aimed his gun at Winston and said coldly, "You didn't touch her just because you said so? I'm supposed to just believe you? Do you think I'm a fool?"Bang! Bang! Bang!Riker opened fire immediately after he said that! Winston did not expect the elderly man to be so decisive. Despite being on guard, Winston was grazed by a bul
