After giving the A-OK, the man turned his head back, planning to jump in.
But soon, his eyes caught something.
Shadow! Shadow!
He just saw a glimpse of a ninja shadow moving around like lightning.
The man was about to say something.
But before his mouth could open up, he soon found himself flying backwards, immediately breaking the pyramid formation.
Boom!
The attack was powerful.
And the fallen man was now unconscious.
What?!!!
Instantly, the men all crouched down in various angles while hastily making their way back to the vehicles.
Of course, they dragged the unconscious man too.
"Quick! Quick! We've been discovered! It was a trap!"
Botan's heartbeat raised crazily the faster he dived into the middle vehicle.
Dammit! They calculated wrongly.
So, does this mean that there are guards in there? Did that little imp leave things as they were, focusing on installing new cameras in positions that they, the last Tian guards, would not be aware of?
Son of a b***ch!
The guy was smarter than they thought.
.
Thinking of the blood oozing out of the unconscious man's forehead, it was safe to assume that they shot the guy with a stun gun at the direct point within the medulla Oblongata that could knock one unconscious.
Such sharpshooter skills could make anyone jealous.
There were so many questions in his mind, but he knew that now wants the time to dilly dally.
They had to get out of here before those inside got out to chase after them.
Additionally, staying in the gated community was now dangerous. With one phone call, the patrol units would start looking for them like crazy, as though they were catching some criminals who just did a bank heist.
"What the hell are you waiting for? Drive! Drive! Drive!"
Engines on, the drivers stepped on the pedals, not even caring if everyone was in yet.
All doors and windows were now open, with several people jumping in like crazy.
The scene was too ridiculous to capture.
Of course, they wouldn't leave anyone behind because what if that person snitched under pressure?
The fact that they all betrayed their previous employer showed that they weren't loyal to anyone.
.
Very recklessly, the vehicles drifted in a circle once, making sure that everyone was in.
And just a few seconds more, they were off, almost knocking a lady who had been going with headphones on. She dived into the shrubs escaping their gorgeous legs with twig branches.
"Ahhhh~~ You crazy bastards! Watch where you're going. Do you know how much my legs are insured for?"
~Vrrrmmmmm~
No one cared for the screaming lady behind.
Everyone was watching around madly, looking out for any patrol units that could possibly be after them.
This whole thing messed with them because every vehicle they spotted along the roads made them feel fidgety... Even if they belonged to other neighbours.
~Ring!!!
Botan's phone rang vigorously, waking him up from his stupor.
["How? How did it go?"]
Botan thinned his lips grimly: "Now's not a good time. Talk later".... Tut...
He wanted no time cutting Wei Kwo off.
~Ahhhhhhh!!!
Botan ran his fingers through his hair, taking multiple deep breaths.
It wasn't for nothing that he was anxious.
Though the order came from Wei Kwo, he and the guys were the ones who caused the Tian couple to have that accident. Almost everyone's hands were soiled in this matter.
And if the boy wanted to rise and take revenge, he would face him one day.
So how could he not be fidgety about the matter?
.
Botan's eyes were red.
If he had known that the brat would change so much, they would've never left him out of their sight!
He thought the Ghus and the Gias didn't care much about the boy. But now, it seems that he was wrong.
They were probably the ones who got such talented sharpshooters to watch over the Tian estate.
What should he do? What should he do?
The Gias alone were too powerful for him to take on. If they assisted the brat in taking revenge, it would be like an imperial order, with his fate being fixed.
Now, add the Ghus to the mix.
... F***!
If Botan knew that the Hous had also joined the gang, he would definitely turn to stone with fright.
Sweat tripled down Botan's forehead the more he realized how dire his situation was.
Blame him! As they say, the lean camel is always better than the new calf... At least until it truly dies.
Meaning, he shouldn't have been rash to stand with Wei Kwo. Now, the lean camel showed signs of fattening, which only meant disaster for him.
Dread gnawed at his insides, causing him to turn and churn in discomfort.
This was not supposed to happen!
With things being this way, what was he supposed to do now?
His best option was to gather as much wealth as possible and flee abroad before the bastard came for revenge.
But he was so unwilling!
Why? He had met so many influential people and had a certain status over time. So how could he be willing to run away with his thing dangling between his legs like a common street rat?
.
Botan clenched his fists murderously.
No! No! He wouldn't give up just like that.
What he needed was power.
Yes. That's it!
Botan's eyes lit up.
Power. Power. Power
He needed power to destroy the boy!
But where? Where could he get such power from?
[Hahahahha~... Human, I like you.]
Botan was taken back.
Who? Who said that?
[Human, I'm in the ring you picked up this morning. Your current energy woke me up.]
What?!
With a shivering look of fright in his eyes, he slowly lowered his head to glance at the bizarre ring on his finger.
Was he daydreaming? How was this possible?
Fear and all sorts of horrible emotions flooded his mind as his first instinct was to take off the ring and throw it far, far, away.
But before he could move, the voice suddenly spoke again.
['Human, I won't do that if I were you.']
'_'
The voice chuckled. ['Human, look at me as your helper. You want power... I can give it to you. But in exchange, I want something else from you. So that said, how far are you willing to go for power? Human, let's make a deal.']
