Chapter 212: Floods Flooded the Dragon King Temple, Redemption
The luxurious interior could not prevent the depressing atmosphere. The car was speeding through the streets. Winston closed his eyes, frowned, and his hands tapped on the armrests of the seat from time to time, trying to suppress his inner uneasiness.

He had just contacted the High Table again. With regard to Yongye's unreasonable behavior, the High Table, which possessed the power to break the sky, did not dare to take any countermeasures.

The words were filled with respect for his master behind the scenes, the Grand Duke of Eternal Night, which made Winston think of some rumors on the high table.

Many of the founders of the High Table are old-school European aristocrats!

The Grand Duke of Eternal Night now seems to be the most powerful person in Europe, and his connections and influence far exceed Winston's imagination!
"Boss, you don't have to go there in person!"

The serious-looking driver glanced in the rearview mirror.

"If we don't catch those guys, we're going to die!"

Winston shouted in a deep voice.

"There were only two of them from the beginning to the end. How could they kill so many of us?"

One of the killers was a little bit unbelievable.

"Maybe we can't kill them both, but what about the high table?"

"..."

The driver and the killer sitting in the passenger seat looked at each other.

Winston's face was extremely gloomy. At this moment, his dissatisfaction with the high table had reached a peak. But now he did not dare to resist. There was one thing he did not say.

If Yongye hadn't intervened, he could have handled the high table, but Yongye... the other killers might have survived, but he was dead!
Even though he had been secretly building up his power and planning for a long time, in the face of absolute power, Winston could only feel despair.

Bang bang bang!

The fierce sound of gunfire came from far away and got closer and closer. Winston was shocked. His life and death depended on this battle.

----

"Fake!"

Wesley felt the vibration from his wrist and looked at the fallen killer in disbelief. The subconscious shot he just fired actually killed the killer who suddenly jumped out in an instant.

With just a few shots, he quickly mastered his own shooting method. Under bullet time, his shooting skills were terrifyingly accurate!
boom!
The bullet hit the door frame, flashing dazzling sparks.

"Shit, man, why don't you just give up and help Fox and I pay attention to the surrounding situation. Your shooting skills are really terrible!"

Wesley said helplessly as he looked at Lin Jue who kept pulling the trigger to try to stop the enemy from approaching.

Now he was a little convinced that he had the blood of a killer. A simple comparison showed that the gap between people was greater than he had imagined.

"Tsk? Actually, I haven't used a gun for a while! I'm a little rusty..."

"Dude, there's nothing shameful about being a bad shooter."

Wesley comforted himself somewhat complacently.

"That's enough, both of you. Don't you see what's going on? Pay attention to your surroundings. We have to evacuate as soon as possible. I don't think things are going well!"

Fox limped over, interrupted Wesley, and snatched the gun from the dazed Lin Jue.

"go!"

Looking at the slim figure, Wesley and Lin Jue looked at each other and both smiled bitterly.

Just as their figures emerged from the side door.

boom……

The factory gate suddenly roared loudly, and a large group of men in suits with serious expressions rushed into the factory.

Looking at the many killers lying on the ground, there was no anger on Winston's face.

"Chase me!"

"Yes!"

At this time, outside the factory, motorcycles roared violently and then soared away. As for the killers who poured into the factory, they quickly searched the ruins.

"Haha, how could I really let you guys get away so easily?"

A muffled voice was heard in the empty factory.

……

huff huff huff!

Lin Jue carried Fox on his back and followed the instructions of the woman behind him to quickly move between the buildings. Wesley behind him was a little out of breath.

Fuck, this is impossible. How can the gap between people be so big?

Looking at Lin Jue who was still nimble while carrying Fox on his back in front of him, and feeling his own sore legs and feet, Wesley's eyes widened and he roared in his heart.

"Go left!"

Fox lowered her voice and spoke softly, her ears carefully listening to the movements around her, one hand unintentionally placed on Lin Jue's chest, however, Lin Jue, who had been following her orders, suddenly stopped.

"what happened?"

Fox frowned as he felt the strong body beneath him.

"It seems we can't run away..."

"what?"

Fox looked at the alleys on both sides that had become extremely dark as night fell. It was pitch black and ordinary people could not see clearly at all. They could only judge by the sounds.

But now Lin Jue suddenly said this.

Her heart pounding, Fox suddenly discovered a problem that horrified her.

"Your heartbeat..."

Feeling the cold muzzle of the gun on the side of his head, Lin Jue was speechless! "HOLY SHIT! What are you doing?"

Wesley, who arrived from behind, screamed. How come he was just a little behind, but the development of the situation was beyond his expectations!
"Heartbeat? Could it be that Brother Lin's heart has stopped beating?"

Wesley was speechless as he had heard what Fox had just said.

"His heartbeat has stopped..."

Fox's eyes were fixed on Lin Jue, who had a calm expression. The body under her, which originally made her feel a little safe, was now extremely cold.

If you think about it carefully, this unlucky guy who seemed to have just happened to be bumped into by them is really abnormal!
"But it's jumping too slowly!"

Fox looked at the handsome face in front of him, which was only a finger's distance away from him. In his mind, the most unique wanted poster information about the textile factory flashed through his mind.

There are a group of monsters without heartbeats in this world...

"Hey ma'am, I thought we were friends..."

Lin Jue looked towards the dark and quiet alley in front of him, and a flash of scarlet light flashed by.

Slowly putting the woman down, Lin Jue raised his hands above his head, feeling a little helpless.

"Shit, let's talk it over. If Brother Lin was really a killer, we would have been dead long ago!"

Wesley said anxiously. He didn't want to lose such an interesting friend so soon.

"Killer? This guy is much scarier than a killer! Do you know his heartbeat? It's nearly ten times slower than a normal person's!"

Fox looked alert, looking at Lin Jue's face as if he saw some kind of man-eating monster.

"Maybe you shouldn't be thinking about my problems, but look around!"

Lin Jue smiled bitterly.

My God, he originally just wanted to change the weather and had no intention of getting close to these two. Later, he followed them out of interest, but he didn't expect the woman in front of him to be so alert.

pat!pat!
Slight unusual noises were heard from the only two alleys. Fox quickly turned his guns around, aiming the muzzles of his two hands, one on each side, at the figures walking out of the dark alleys.

“…It’s over!”

Wesley listened to the hurried footsteps behind him, and at that moment he realized that all their escape routes were blocked.

"Why is the high table making such a fuss?"

No longer caring about Lin Jue at this point, Fox shouted softly.

Her eyes were fixed on a certain figure that jumped out from a group of killers.

Winston looked at the three people who were controlled, and his heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down. He stared at the woman in front of him with some deep eyes.

"It's not us at the High Table who mobilized a large force. It's your textile factory that offended someone you shouldn't have offended and betrayed you!"

"This is impossible!"

Fox shouted sternly, the textile factory is her belief, she wholeheartedly completes every instruction of the loom of destiny and regards it as the meaning of life!
"All this was done by the traitors in our textile factory. They are Cross, Wesley, Fox..."

A familiar voice echoed in the alley. Winston turned off the recording in time and looked at the dazed woman in front of him with interest.

"I'm just a small employee..."

When Wesley heard his name on the recording, he felt that something must have gone wrong. He had never done anything wrong.
What an outrageous thing! As for the textile factory, he had never heard of it before. How come it suddenly got blamed for this now?
Lin Jue looked at the trembling woman and sighed slightly.

He didn't know what it felt like to have the faith he had held since childhood shattered, but from the determination in Fox's eyes, he could already see what was going to happen next.

"Ha ha……"

Recalling the task that Zoro had given her, Fox's body trembled slightly. She didn't understand what she had done wrong...

Traitor? She had never done anything against the textile factory. She had been serving the textile factory all her life, and regarded the instructions of the loom of fate as saving the world. As a woman, she had overcome countless difficulties and defeated countless enemies. She did not ask for anything in return, but only hoped that her life would be proven. But now... 'traitor', how harsh it was. This was the title she could not accept the most!
Glancing at the people who gathered around her one by one, she smiled bitterly, and finally her gaze fixed on Lin Jue.

"Feel sorry……"

His voice was barely audible and his face was extremely pale.

Lin Jue felt mixed emotions as he looked at this woman who never gave up but was instantly defeated by just one sentence.

"NO——!"

Wesley looked at Fox's next move with bloodshot eyes. The next moment, he was about to rush to the woman and snatch the pistol that was pointed at her head.

However, bullet time only heightened his awareness, but did not grant him unparalleled speed.

Under Wesley's desperate gaze, Fox smiled bitterly and pulled the trigger brazenly.

boom!
The sound of gunfire was like thunder in the clear sky, and the originally dark streets were instantly filled with flashes of fire.

Under Wesley's gaze, the yellow bullet wrapped in flames rushed towards the man with messy temples...

That fleeting pain...

But it didn't show up!

Fox looked at the handsome face in front of her in astonishment. The other person's face was almost touching hers, and she could feel his breath.

There was absolute silence all around. Wesley's body froze to one side, and Winston's eyes widened, as if he had seen the most incredible thing in the world.

All the killers around gasped and stepped back subconsciously.

"As my friend? You'll have a hard time dying!"

The gentle words seemed to soothe a broken soul, and Fox's pupils were occupied by a certain face...

It seemed like just a moment, yet it seemed like a long time had passed.

Fox slowly turned his head. On one side of his head, two slender fingers were holding a shiny bullet...
