Bang!
A loud echo could be heard!
The gates to Myer’s mansion were rammed apart by the two Jeeps as they drove straight into the compound.
Right away, the head of the mansion’s guard team, Yohanes Harrison, rushed to the gates with a group of guards.
His face clouded over as he asked, “Who are you guys?”
Colin Dunne and five North soldiers stopped the car and got down quickly.
At this moment, Colin Dunne opened the door for Nathan. The latter stepped down the car and announced his presence calmly, “I’m here for Joseph Myers’s life!”
Yohanes scoffed and his voice boomed, “I see that you are here to seek death. Everyone! Beat the f*** out of these few people!”
Instantly, the guards followed his orders, took their batons out, and attacked in the direction of Nathan and his companions.
On the other hand, Nathan remained unfazed. He kept his hands behind his back and walked towards the mansion’s entrance as though this group of murderous-looking guards were invisible.
Meanwhile, Colin Dunne gave out a yell and defended the bodyguards’ attack.
He was the Captain of the National Guards under Nathan’s unit in the military. Clearly, he was extremely good at fighting.
The five soldiers he brought along were all part of Nathan’s unit in the National Guards too. It goes without saying that they were extraordinarily skilled.
The bodyguards were no match for this group of highly-adept National Guards. Within a short moment, a bloodbath ensued.
Colin and his men fought with the standard military combat skills. While they would not cause direct kills, the injuries inflicted could be fatal. The prowess displayed by this group of men was that on the battlefield.
The bodyguards at the scene collapsed in agony shortly after.
Even the most capable leader, Yohanes, was sent flying after Colin’s kick. His ribcage broke and he landed right next to Nathan.
Yohanes was once in the military for seven years and was forced to retire due to a mistake.
After he retired, he started to work as a bodyguard to wealthy individuals due to his dexterity and combat skills. Alas, he became the head of Joseph Myers’s guard team.
He had always prided himself in his capabilities, but now, he was utterly defeated for the first time in his life.
Pressing a hand on his chest, he looked at Nathan, Colin, and the rest of them in awe and shock. Suddenly, he blurted out, “You, you, you...You are the Ares of the North! General Nathan Cross!”
Upon hearing these words, Nathan, who was strolling towards the mansion’s door, stopped in his tracks.
Turning around, he glanced at Yohanes who was heavily injured and remarked calmly, “You recognize me. What a rarity.”
In fact, Yohanes was not sure of what he had said earlier.
Now that he heard Nathan’s words, he was extremely confident that the man in front of him was China’s youngest general. He was the country’s most mysterious warlord, Nathan Cross!
Yohanes struggled for a moment and finally knelt in front of Nathan as he said, “I was once in the military. While I was not part of the North Guards, I have heard of your name through military reports.”
“I didn’t expect us to meet like this, General. Please forgive me.”
Nathan replied coldly, “Since you were once an asset of the country, how can you allow yourself to be used by a retard like Joseph Myers?”
“I will let you off this time, considering that you were once a soldier too. Get your men to leave now. Also, don’t reveal my identity to anyone.”
Yohanes and his men nodded profusely and agreed, “Yes, Sir. Understood.”
This was how Joseph Myers, who was in the living room on the second floor, became oblivious to the intense fight that had ensued in the courtyard earlier.
He popped two imported pills and felt extremely energized and rejuvenated.
Rubbing his palms in an anticipatory manner, he waited for the arrival of the outlaws whom he had expected to have killed Nathan, bringing Penny Smith to him.
At this moment, footsteps could be heard from the staircase.
Joseph instantly smiled in elation. He was about to ask whether Fernando was back.
However, what he saw was Nathan and a few men coming up the steps.
Widening his eyes in shock, he blurted out, “It’s you!”
