Chapter 1910 The Battle
In the meantime, the car was still heading uphill on the treacherous path.
Francesca came to her senses gradually as the car moved bumpily. Even though she was still enduring the throbbing pain from her wound, she started regaining her usual composure.
A man in black was talking on the phone in Erihalean.
Even so, Francesca could only roughly catch what he said. We’ll reach there soon? She’s not dead? Hmph! The mastermind manipulating in the dark seems to be waiting for me on the hill! Fine, I’m curious to know who that despicable person is!
The car continued to move on and finally pulled to a halt after quite a long time. A few men in black got off it and communicated in Erihalean for a short while. After that, they opened the door and carried Francesca down.
Due to the blood loss, she could not muster up any energy to retaliate. However, she still had a clear head.
While being carried upside down by one of the men over his shoulder, she could make out uncountable cars parked in the surroundings. Apart from that, there were more men in black standing guard here and there. Evidently, they were all well-trained and a stark contrast to the usual hooligans. She had a hunch they were bodyguards from one of the prominent families or corporations. Hmm! The mastermind abducting me must be a bigwig from Erihal!
Later, someone broke Francesca’s reverie by carrying her into a cabin and throwing her onto the floor.
“Be careful! She’s Mr. Lindberg’s fiancée. If she’s hurt, all of you will be doomed!” An authoritative voice sounded abruptly.
The few men in black lowered their heads and apologized, “Noted, sir.”
Francesca’s head was in a spin, but she could still roughly have a grasp of the situation.
Hmph! This man with an authoritative voice must be their head! She wanted to catch a glimpse of the man’s face, but she could not move as her energy was drained.
“Search her body to see if she has an identification card with her!” the head instructed.
“Yes, sir!” One of the men in black snatched Francesca’s bag from her and shook everything out on the floor. He spotted her passport soon and handed it to their head.
The latter took it over and was about to flip through it. All of a sudden, someone squealed, “Snake!”
The head lashed out at his subordinate. “Why did you make such a big fuss!”
“T-there are a lot of snakes!” another man stammered.
The authoritative head finally looked up and was rooted to the ground.
In a blink of an eye, countless snakes showed up and wriggled toward them.
There were various types of snakes hissing at them with petrifying murderous intent. Some were obviously venomous ones of the rare species.
“What on earth is happening?” the head grunted.
The next second, a venomous snake charged at him with a swoosh and plunged its fangs into his wrist.
“Argh!” He let out a blood-churning yowl and dropped the passport onto the floor.
When he was about to pick it up, the other venomous snakes started charging at him and his subordinates again.
The men in black tried to chase the venomous snakes away by all means. Some even started firing at the ferocious reptiles.
It was an absolute mess in the cabin.
Soon, someone took out the torches from somewhere to scare off the venomous snakes. Within seconds, the reptiles still hissing moments ago dispersed out of the cabin.
“Argh! My goodness!” When the men were about to heave a sigh of relief, a mind-boggling shriek sounded outside the cabin. It was followed by a series of ear-splitting gunshots.
Gripping his wounded wrist, the head instructed, “Go out and have a look!”
“Yes, sir.” One of the bodyguards nodded respectfully and was about to open the door. Nevertheless, the wooden door was flung open by something with a powerful knock.
Everyone’s eyes widened in disbelief when they looked in the same direction. The so-called something turned out to be a big black bear!
There were a few other black bears following it closely behind. It was as though a mafia gang exuding an intimidating aura was strutting into the cabin.
“W-What the heck… Argh!” Before the man standing guard outside the door could finish his words, he was thrown effortlessly by the leading bear onto the car and collapsed clumsily on the ground.
Another bodyguard pulled out his gun and aimed at the big black bear. Nonetheless, he ended up lying motionlessly on the ground after being slapped by the beast the next second.
Bang!
The other bodyguards aimed at the bear and fired concurrently, sending it into a frenzy. After letting out a bellow of rage, it dashed into the cabin to strike against them.
