Zara remarked coldly, “I’m mortal—why should I be afraid? If fear can’t help you escape, what’s the point?”
Tate Landry fell silent, contemting her words. She was right; there was no way out of this predicament. Staying inside the vehicle was safer than stepping out, where a heavy-duty truck could easily turn the human body into nothing more than a pile of mush after smashing every bone to pieces.
At that moment, Zara suggested, “Don’t you have a bomb on you? Just set it off! A death like that might lessen some of the pain!”
Tate managed a bitter smile, “I don’t have any bombs, it’s all a damn trick!” With that, he picked up the detonator, pressed it multiple times, and grimaced, “See? No response at all.”
Zara was taken aback to learn that Tate had been deceiving them from the very beginning. The thought of being buried alive in this tunnel alongside her mother because of him filled her with frustration. Yet, she also realized that their chances of escaping were nil. Her own survival mightst only a few more seconds.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
She could already feel the intense vibrations as two heavy-duty trucks sped by. With her arms tightly wrapped around Deana, she noticed the helicopter that Charlie was on had swooped down, appearing over the mountain. The chopper was cautiously lowering itself toward the tunnel entrance, but the pilot was taking his time as they approached the ground.
Having witnessed the Rolls-Royce enter and the tworge trucks barreling in, Charlie understood the enemy’s n. The Banks Family aimed to orchestrate a catastrophic traffic ident, taking out Deana, Zara, and Tate all at once. In the confined space of the tunnel, the three of them had no hope of escape.<fnb1e8> Chapters first released on f?i?n?d?n?o?v?e?l?</fnb1e8>
Charlie urged the pilot, “Descend faster! If we don’t hurry, we might be toote to save them!”
The pilot responded, “Master! The aircraft is equipped with radar that measures the distance from the ground in real time. We can only descend at a safe speed within 20 meters. It won’t be fast.”
Gazing down, Charlie saw they were still at least ten meters above the ground, equivalent to about five stories. At this rate, they would need another 20 or 30 seconds tond. Without hesitation, he unfastened his seatbelt, opened the hatch, and instructed Isaac Cameron, “Grab a gun and secure the tunnel entrance. If anyone dares to approach, shoot!”
Isaac hurriedly asked, “Master, are you jumping?” But Charlie didn’t hear him; he had already leaped from the helicopter! Although he had never jumped from such a height before, he had taken rejuvenation pills to enhance his physical condition, and he had the support of his aura. Thus, he was confident that his current strength would allow him to handle the fall.
As Charlie descended, he hit the ground with a heavy thud. His legs absorbed the immense impact, and without wasting a second, he sprinted toward the tunnel entrance. Just then, a massive crash echoed from inside! “Boom!”
