Chapter 44
Governor Parker gave an order, and the man in black from Sky Corps put his gun on Leonard's head.
Immediately afterward, rows of Sky Corps members were waiting in formation.
They knew very well that the young man in front of them was not so easy to deal with. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to beat Larson half to death.
However, they had already laid a trap for him.
Marsh sneered.
The young master of the Dewey family in Newden City had been beaten and was now groveling and trying to make amends, becoming the laughingstock of the noble families in Imperial City. But the Acosta family was different. If Larson had been beaten, it would have been a minor matter, but if the Acosta family lost face, it would be a major issue.
Meanwhile, Waylon was sweating profusely with anxiety.
The sound of helicopter blades could be heard in the sky.
Soon, a row of helicopters appeared, flying into the sky above the mansion.
Inside the estate, after hearing the voice, the Sky Corps members, including Marsh and Parker, looked up.
Looking at the six civilian helicopters that appeared in sight, all of them showed doubts.
These helicopters seemed to be heading for the mansion where they were located.
"What's going on?".
Marsh looked at Parker, thinking that it was arranged by him.
Parker shook his head, and he was also puzzled.
The appearance of these helicopters was suspicious.
At this moment, as the helicopter continued to move, it finally stopped over the mansion.
The sound of the spinning blades grew louder and louder.
In that instant, even the members of the Sky Corps forgot about the execution and stared dumbfounded at the helicopters.
Because the distance was not too far, it could be seen from a distance that the door of the helicopter above was open. "Mr. Lucas, we have arrived at the sky above the Governor's Mansion and locked on the target. Please give us instructions."
A slightly noisy voice came through the intercom.
"Land immediately."
"Got it."
"Got it."
The doors of all six helicopters opened, and a rope ladder was thrown down from each one.
Afterward, the graceful figures dressed in black quickly climbed down the ladder.
They were highly trained and moved quickly.
"They are really here for us."
Marsh exclaimed in shock.
The countless members of the Sky Corps also became nervous. All the guns in their hands were pointed at the helicopter in the sky.
But at the same time they raised their guns, a red dot appeared between the eyebrows of Parker.
"Don't make any rash moves."
Parker suddenly said loudly, with cold sweat already oozing from his head.
The red dot was like a death threat.
By now, all the personnel from the helicopters had landed
After they landed, they stood neatly in two rows.
At this moment, the lead helicopter began to descend slowly.
The force of the spinning blades made each person feel their cheeks stinging.
The cabin door opened, revealing a middle-aged man who walked out.
Behind him was a uniformed female secretary.
The middle-aged man was dressed in designer clothes and wore a pair of custom-made pointed leather shoes. His sinister eyes made people feel an icy chill.
He was surrounded by a group of muscular men in suits, all wearing sungla**es, making him look even more imposing.
When the person who had come with Marsh saw him, he suddenly changed his expression and hurriedly walked towards him.
"It turns out that the head of the Lucas family is here."
He thought Marsh had invited the big shot.
However, before he could approach, the black-clothed bodyguards pushed him aside without any hesitation.
The old man dared not show any displeasure and stood there, trembling with fear.
It was because the man was Hunter Lucas, the head of the Lucas family, who could stand tall even among esteemed families in Imperial City.
Parker recognized his identity.
It was just that he was somewhat puzzled.
the many
Although the Lucas family was very powerful and domineering, there was actually no intersection between them and Parker. So why did Hunter suddenly appear? Marsh was also confused and could not understand what was happening.
At this moment, Leonard, who had a gun pointed at his head, casually twisted the handcuffs on his wrist into a pile of scrap metal and threw them on the ground.
He then looked at Hunter and said, "Hunter, if you had come ten minutes later, your boss would have been shot in the head."
Marsh and Parker's expressions changed drastically at the same time.
Did Hunter come here for Leonard?
This was impossible. How could Leonard know such a head of a financial conglomerate?
When they saw Hunter walking directly towards Leonard, the hearts of the two men sank.
At this moment, Hunter looked at the members of the Sky Corps and, in particular, the captain, who was still holding a gun to Leonard's head. He raised his hand and slapped the captain hard across the face. There was a crisp sound.
The captain of Sky Corps was immediately stunned.
Looking at Hunter with a fierce look, he stood there in a daze and did not dare to move.
Hunter came to Leonard, took a deep breath, and said respectfully, "Leonard, please forgive me for arriving late."
Facing the head of a financial conglomerate, Leonard just nodded slightly.
Then he patted Hunter on the shoulder. "Not bad. You came just in time."
Parker and Marsh were still in shock, staring blankly at the scene before them.
To call the head of the Lucas family by his given name was a bold move, one that carries immense weight and could be quite daunting.
Before they could recover from their shock, several members of Sky Corps ran over in a panic, shouting, "Mr. Evans, a group of people claiming to be Eagles Corps have driven into the estate, and we can't stop them."
Parker, Marsh, and the others looked in the direction of the commotion and saw several dark green off-road vehicles heading toward them at high speed.
As they got closer, the vehicles screeched to a sudden stop, causing black smoke to rise from the tires.This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
The door opened, and a man with a hooked nose stepped out, followed by a group of menacing men who had gotten out of the off-road vehicles.
Although they were not wearing military uniforms, they all had the same long leather boots, and their murderous aura made Parker scared. He shouted loudly, "This is the Governor's Mansion in Newden City. Even if you are in Eagles Corps, you cannot enter uninvited. Leave immediately."
Eagle's cold gaze was fixed on Parker as he spoke, "Mr. Evans, we're here today because you've detained a member of our General Army."
As he heard this, Parker's heart skipped a beat. With some guesses, he said in a deep voice, "Who?"
"Leonard Santos, the head instructor of the Eagles Corps in General Army. We heard that he was detained by you without reason," Eagle replied.
It was Leonard again. Who the hell was Leonard that he had attracted both the head of the Lucas family and the people from the General Army to come here?
These were two forces that had no relationship at all.
Not to mention the head of the Lucas family, General Army was the real top strength of Griffinland.
Over the years, there had been cases of the General Army sending troops to crush a governor's mansion.
The power of the Governor's Mansion was nothing compared to General Army.
At this time, Leonard frowned.
"Eagle, when did I promise you to become the head instructor of Eagles Corps?"
Eagle said loudly, "Although Mr. Santos didn't agree with me, I know that you will agree sooner or later.
"Moreover, the Elder of the General Army has said that if you agree, he will immediately promote you to a higher rank."
Upon hearing this, Parker, who was already trembling with fear, felt his heart sink even further.
