The Supreme Soldier in the City

"Catch them!" William Armstrong didn’t expect that James Brown and Helen Wilson could break out despite being surrounded by a dozen bodyguards. He bellowed in a fury; being their base, most of the people here were his, his shout prompted some waiters and the security of the venue to rush over, trying to stop James Brown and Helen Wilson.

However, their strength was far inferior to that of William Armstrong’s bodyguards. They initially intended to stop James Brown, but instead, James charged forward, grabbing a person and throwing him backward, then grabbing another to do the same, effectively using these people as barriers against the pursuing skilled bodyguards.

Helen was also able to manage by seeing James do this, she started to imitate him by pushing people behind her instead of throwing them, as she lacked the strength. Although slower, this method still significantly helped impede those chasing them from behind.

But when the trio reached the main hall, there were still a few skilled people blocking the way, realizing a direct chase was futile, they had circled around to the hall to wait for James and his company.

"Oh, so the police have come to go undercover at my place," William Armstrong said with a sinister smile, his gaze fixed on James Brown and Helen Wilson.

Helen Wilson shouted fiercely: "You know I’m a police officer and you still dare to block us?"

William Armstrong spat fiercely on the ground and said viciously: "Not just police officers, even if the King Father himself were blocking my wealth today, I’d finish him off too. Everyone, attack them; kill them outright."

These thugs were holding weapons, about three-foot-long military spikes, which were bayonets attached to rifles on battlefields. They were deadly sharp, designed to go for the kill with deep blood grooves on either side. If they pierced the body, blood would flow down these grooves, leading not necessarily to fatal woundings but to rapid blood loss leading to death.

James Brown was quite familiar with such items; he used to enjoy handling military spikes. Seeing them now sparked a certain familiarity, but Helen Wilson was massively alarmed upon seeing them. Such weapons being shown meant they were intent on killing them, and neither she nor James were significantly stronger than their foes, particularly unarmed, making the situation extremely perilous.

At this moment, she suddenly thought of the Mysterious Figure. If that Mysterious Figure were here, they would undoubtedly be able to easily handle this trouble, but seeing the current circumstances and no sign of their apparition, Helen Wilson wasn’t hopeful.

At this moment, Emily Jenkins was completely dazed. She had never encountered such a situation all her life; it seemed like something that only happened in movies and on TV, making her feel as if she were on a film set, witnessing a movie being shot rather than reality.
