Wilkes quickly turned around and shouted at the driver.

"Head towards Green County! Don't stop!"

We must not get caught, especially not by Mason!

The driver immediately floored the accelerator and accelerated.

But misfortunes never come singly.

A new convoy appeared on the road ahead.

Carroll has arrived as well.

He didn't bring many people, but there were several spellcasters, enough for a small-scale group spellcasting session.

bang

The engine of the lead car suddenly emitted a large plume of black smoke.

The car that Wilkes was in crashed head-on into the roadside.

The convoy behind them was also forced to stop.

Mason and Holt's men are rapidly approaching.

Carol's men then surrounded them from the front.

Wilkes's bodyguards could only fight back from behind the car.

Gunshots rang out continuously.

Several people were quickly shot and fell to the ground.

The remaining people are still holding on.

But the firepower outside was simply too intense.

The car was riddled with holes.

Some people even threw explosives at us.

boom

The explosion overturned one of the cars.

The flames spread rapidly.

A bodyguard engulfed in flames crawled out.

It screamed a few times before collapsing to the ground and remaining motionless.

Seeing this scene.

The other bodyguards' expressions completely changed.

They originally thought they were just accompanying Wilkes out to run an errand.

Who could have imagined that such a fierce battle would take place!

There's no way out if we stay here.

"Mr. Wilkes!"

A bodyguard, lying prone behind the car, said in a terrified voice, "There are too many of them, we can't stop them!"

"We must stop them even if we can't!"

Wilkes roared, "A reward of ten thousand yuan to everyone who protects me as I leave!"

Ten thousand yuan is indeed a lot.

But no matter how much money you have, you need to be alive to spend it.

Just then, the intense gunfire suddenly stopped.

Someone on the other side started shouting loudly.

"We only want Wilkes!"

"Everyone else, lay down your weapons and you may leave!"

"Think of your family, they are still waiting for you to come home!"

These words had a startling effect in this time of despair.

One of the bodyguards hesitated for a moment.

Suddenly, he threw down his weapon, raised his hands, and walked out.

As expected, the other side did not fire.

The first person was there.

The remaining bodyguards quickly followed suit.

They abandoned their employers and ran outside.

Wilkes watched this scene, trembling with rage.

"Traitors! You traitors!"

No matter how much Wilkes cursed him.

Those people left without looking back.

In the end, only Edgar, Eleanor, and Truman remained by his side.

Now, Wilkes finally felt a sense of despair.

Is that all?

They had arrived in Green County, and the abandoned pumping station that Gus had mentioned was not far away.

It was so close!

Wilkes' clenched fist trembled uncontrollably.

At that moment, Eleanor came over.

"Don't give up, Mr. Wilkes!"

He encouraged them, saying, "It's not time to give up yet. Don't we all know that there's always a way out?"

"As long as we don't stop, the road will keep extending!"

"Strive to live until the very last moment!"

"I'd rather die than not live!"

Wilkes smiled wryly upon hearing this.

Don't give up? But I can't see any hope at all...

boom!

Suddenly, gunshots rang out again in the distance, and a brand new convoy approached from afar.

Edgar poked his head out, and after confirming the situation, he exclaimed in surprise.

"Mr. Wilkes, it looks like the FBI!"

She said, "They've got the wrong people; they think the people surrounding us are gangsters. We've already started exchanging fire!"

Oh? !

Wilkes instantly straightened up.

Help me up! It's not over yet!

"it is good!"

He said, "Let them fight like dogs! Let's get out of here while we can!"

"no problem!"

Edgar nodded vigorously. "I know a hidden path nearby that we can use to get out!"

……

The group walked south along the woods.

Wilkes was used to a life of luxury.

They hadn't walked far before they were already panting for breath.

One of the shoes got stuck in the mud and couldn't be pulled out no matter what.

But he didn't dare to stop.

The people behind had no idea when they would catch up.

By then...

Even if you want to die, it's not that easy.

Fortunately, the location marked by Gus was not far away.

If we can get hold of the president's weaknesses, all problems will be solved!

"Dunne".

Wilkes said, panting, "Once this is over, all the bodyguards in the manor will be replaced."

"I see."

Edgar said seriously, "Those people are not worth continuing to trust."

Wilkes nodded.

His gaze swept over the three people in front of him.

A silent feeling of gratitude lingered in Wilkes's heart.

Even when he was at odds with the world, they did not abandon him, but instead followed him all the way.
