Chapter 829
Sophie shot Arius a dirty look.
“Stop your nonsense! You would have ended up in the beasts’ stomach long ago if it weren’t for Tristan and me.”
How dare he says I’m fierce?
“Well, let’s just ignore him. Let it be if he wants to stay behind. We don’t have to be here with him.”
Following the fight with the beasts, he was sweaty and felt uncomfortable since he had mild germaphobia.
His only wish was to leave this place as soon as possible.
After everything they went through, Arius knew he had to leave with them despite having no strength.
He didn’t want to die yet as he hadn’t enjoyed life enough.
None of them said anything on their way down.
Not long after they left, the terrorists caught up. Just then, the beast that knocked into the tree had awakened.
When it saw people approaching, it leaped and wanted to attack.
The people from the terrorist organization shot the beast immediately, causing it to no longer be able to stand up.
“Quick! It seems like they haven’t gone far. We can catch up with them,” the person leading the terrorists said.
“Got it! Let’s move!”
A whole group of several dozen of people promptly followed after the man.
The trio knew the terrorists were approaching them as soon as the gunshot sounded.
“No! They are catching up to us!” With the terrorists chasing after them, it depleted their energy.
Arius asked, “What should we do now?”
They didn’t have enough gun power to face off with them.
“Hurry up! Move!”
Now, the only choice left was to avoid the terrorists. Despite being the impressive fighters they are, he and Sophie could not guarantee to win the battle if it wasn’t a close combat but an open-fire battle.
“I agree. Let’s move! Arius, you should walk in front.” This time, Sophie allowed Arius to walk before them as she didn’t want him to be injured.
“Sophie, you—”
Arius felt pathetic as he needed protection from a girl.
“Be careful, okay? Don’t get hurt. The other party has many people, and things might get out of hand.”
Arius bobbed his head in response.
“Don’t worry too much about me! You two should take care of yourselves.” Arius didn’t want to become a burden to them.
Then, the three of them quickened their steps.
Just then, a helicopter appeared and approached them. This time, it was Nicholas’ helicopter.
After finding out Sophie was here, he immediately brought some people with him to rescue her. No matter what it took, he was set on making sure Sophie was safe and sound.
However, they were in mid-air in a primitive forest. It was not an easy task to locate Sophie.
Butterfly was in the helicopter too.
She had been trying her best to locate Sophie but to no avail.
Nicholas looked at Butterfly skeptically.
“Are you sure you can do it? Didn’t you say you could find Sophie? What’s going on now?”
In response, Butterfly glanced at him and replied, “Please keep quiet, Nicholas. Do you think I’m not worried? Sophie is my best friend!”
She was working hard to locate Sophie.
At that moment, the helicopter of the terrorist organization came toward them and began to attack.
“D*mn it! These people must have a death wish! How dare they attack me?” Already in a bad mood, Nicholas immediately began his counterattack.
The Sable family had been in Anglandur for a long time. Clearly, they had strong firepower. Soon, the helicopter that attacked them was destroyed.
“Someone’s coming for us,” Tristan said as soon as he heard the sound. Although he didn’t know who had come, there were sounds of fighting in the sky.
“Mhm!”
Sophie hummed in response.
“The most crucial thing now is to let them know where we are.” Tristan expressed the importance of this while trying to come up with something.
“Let’s keep moving for now!”
Although someone had come to assist them, there were many terrorists. Therefore, the only thing they could do now was to protect themselves. As for the rest, they could make plans later on.
Seeing the destroyed helicopter, Butterfly gave Nicholas a thumbs up.
“You have great marksmanship, Nicholas! You’re on par with Sophie!”
“Of course! This is nothing.” Although these people had always looked down on him, he achieved his position through his capability.
“Great! I’ve found her. She’s right there.” Butterfly finally breathed a sigh of relief when the computer displayed Sophie’s location.
As soon as Nicholas heard that, he ordered the pilot to fly the helicopter over as he wanted to see Sophie at once.
Meanwhile, Sophie and the others were about to reach the bottom of the mountain. At that moment, the terrorists caught up with them.
They only had two submachine guns with them. It seemed like they were likely to be captured by the terrorists this time.
“Since our backups are here, let’s take them head-on!” They must know where to find us since they have located us.
Sophie nodded in response, agreeing to Tristan’s words.
Then, Tristan and Sophie found a suitable place to take cover. With only two submachine guns left, Arius could only hide.
Once the terrorists entered the zone, Tristan gestured for Sophie to take action. Soon, the two worked seamlessly to kill their enemies.
One by one, the terrorists collapsed to the ground.
“Retreat!”
Clearly, they were ambushed here, so naturally, they couldn’t move forward rashly. However, it was too late, and Tristan and Sophie shot them down mercilessly. Very soon, they took down several dozens of them.
On the other hand, Nicholas became even more anxious after he heard the sound of the gunshots.
More than a dozen of terrorists retreated. Seeing their opponent’s powerful firepower, they knew they would die if they acted without a plan. Therefore, they were at a loss.
“Boss, what should we do now?”
“I’ll leave behind half the group with you, and I’ll bring a few people with me to go behind and surround them. There are only three of them. They are no match for us.”
“Okay, Boss. Please go ahead! I’ll take care of everything here!”
There was no movement for a long time. Noticing the strange situation, Tristan and Sophie glanced at each other and knew what their opponents were scheming.
So, you’re planning to outflank us? Let’s see if you can do it.
With no weapons on him, Arius was tensed even when he breathed. He had been living a comfortable life with the International Medical Association for many years and never thought life would be so thrilling.
Just then, Sophie and Tristan reunited.
They stood back to back as this position was perfect for shooting, and they could cover themselves too.
Tristan held Sophie’s hand and said, “We’ll definitely leave this place safely!”
