Chapter 13

In the alley, seeing the sudden flash of white light and his own shadow cast on the ground, Clark was momentarily stunned.

"Yellow sweat shirt, yellow waxy face!"

"Catch him!"

Samuel Thompson's voice rang out.

Without asking any questions, Edward Carter leapt up and charged into the alley.

If this guy hadn't tried to run, Samuel Thompson would have hesitated, wondering if he was suspecting the wrong person.

Next, he directly made a video call to Baldy Wood.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Very quickly, searchlights lit up overhead in this gathering area, shining down, and several drones swooped in from afar.

In the night sky, a huge light screen was projected, displaying a photo of Clark—taken secretly by Samuel Thompson.

Rat-a-tat!

Rat-a-tat!

Rat-a-tat!

Flames lit up in the night sky, sweeping across a building not far away.

Rubble flew through the air as Clark jumped up, rolling and leaping toward another building.

Outside the building, the drones' infrared beams crisscrossed, capturing his movements.

"Where do you think you're going!"

Edward Carter, wielding a broadsword, jumped among the ruins, hot on his heels.

Inside the building, Clark's face had already changed, but his clothes and body shape remained the same.

Once locked on, no matter how he dodged, he couldn't escape the tracking.

He had experienced this scene countless times in his dreams—a divine envoy exposed under the light could only meet destruction.

The only thing he couldn't accept was that he had no idea how he had been exposed.

He had been in Jiangbei City for three years and had never shown his true face, not even to that duck brother in the provincial capital, who didn't know his hiding place.

He had planned to use this opportunity to hand over the duck brother's people to the Wu'an Army and complete the deal at the same time.

Up to now, both schemes had gone perfectly; the only flaw was how he had been exposed.

Run?

Not much chance of escape.

The Wu'an Army brutes never spared any cost in their work.

Boom!

With a kick, the wall was knocked down, and Edward Carter roared.

"Come out!"

He was a bit reckless, but not completely stupid. The longer the chase went on, the more convinced he was that he was after a big fish.

This kid Samuel Thompson is really something—he can get things done.

Click!

Click!

Click!

Outside the nearby buildings, over a hundred Wu'an Army soldiers quickly ran over, each holding a Vulcan gun, surrounding the targeted building.

Slap!

"Well done!"

Baldy Wood came out, slapped Samuel Thompson on the shoulder, and laughed heartily.

"Do you know who it is?"

Samuel Thompson looked at Baldy Wood's setup and asked.

At this point, the guy being surrounded had almost no chance of escape.

Vermin only belong in dark corners; once exposed to the sunlight, they can only be crushed—there's no other possibility.

"We'll know once we catch him."

Baldy Wood shook his head and said, "Didn't expect there'd really be a fish tonight—let's see if it's a big one or a small one."

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Gunshots rang out, blasting the building into flying rubble, making it shake and sway.

"If we can't take down the demon clan, at least we can deal with scum like you."

Baldy Wood said coldly, "Fire at will!"

Watching the building being continuously destroyed, Samuel Thompson opened his mouth but didn't speak. At this point, it was already a sure catch—was such a big show really necessary?

Glancing at Samuel Thompson, Baldy Wood smiled and said, "Let me teach you something today. These beasts are hiding inside—what if they use the building to launch a sneak attack?

So, just destroy the cover...

Besides, any damaged buildings will be compensated for. Of course, that's the Ministry of Internal Affairs' problem—what's it got to do with us Wu'an Army?

By then, they'll even have to thank us for boosting domestic demand and creating jobs."

Got it!

Now Samuel Thompson finally understood why the Wu'an Army was so unpopular.

True brutes.

Roar—amid the constant gunfire, a roar came from inside the building, and Edward Carter suddenly flew out, crashing into the ruins nearby.

With a beast-like howl, a monster covered in fur, its body shimmering with a ghostly light, and resembling an ape, burst out and charged into the distance.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Bullets struck the monster, but were blocked by the scales on its body, making a metallic clanging sound.

"Trying to run?"

Watching the monster charge out, Baldy Wood leapt into the air, blood energy swirling around him. Like an arrow released from a bow, he shot up into the sky and punched the monster.

Boom!

The monster let out a miserable scream and crashed headfirst into the ground.

From high above, Baldy Wood stomped down. The figure on the ground rolled away just in time, and the spot where he had just been was left with a huge crack from the stomp.

Then, Baldy Wood lifted his foot and kicked the monster.

Crack!

After being knocked to the ground, the monster couldn't get up again.

"You could have been a decent person, but you just had to become a beast!"

Roar!

The monster's eyes were blood-red, its mind no longer clear. Seeing Baldy Wood approaching, it let out another roar and lunged again.

As expected, Baldy Wood kicked it flying once more.

Crack!

This time, the kick landed on its chest. The monster struggled to get up, but in the end, its head lolled to the side, its eyes wide open, lifeless.
