Chapter 2182 A Desperate Gambit

Outside the stone hall, Lexi and Hattie grew increasing anxious as they waited.

Finished

The longer time dragged on, the more dangerous it became for Mackenzie. Her chances were growing slimmer with every passing minute.

“Report, strategist! We’ve spotted Five Poison Sect members fleeing through another exit!”

At that moment, a soldier from the Wolf Warrior Unit ished over with the news.

No wall in the world could be impenetrable. The Five Poison Sect was filled with strange and extraordinary individuals. In such a vast space, it was early impossible to complete a full encirclement. They always seemed to find an opening to escape.

If this continued, there was a real risk of letting the roots of the weeds remain.

“Eve, launch the bombardment! Mrs. Lowe must have already sensed what’s happening!”

Magnus, acting as the strategist, had no choice but to make the most decisive choice..

However, the people around him were stunned. They hadn’t yet spoken their objections, but their faces clearly displayed their disapproval.

“Impossible!”

The communicator immediately transmitted Eve’s cold refusal: “I won’t authorize a bombing until I’m certain that Mackenzie is safe!” noveldrama

Magnus‘ face showed helplessness.

Even the geniuses present had a sinking feeling–this battle might be a loss.

War demanded cruelty and cunning.

If one clung too tightly to morality and kindness, a victory could not be won. To be victorious in war, one had to be ruthless.

“Brother, what do we do now?”

Hattie, the talented strategist, was now at a loss.

“We retreat.”

Magnus issued the order quickly. The importance of swift action was critical. If they delayed too long and the enemy fortified their position, unforeseen complications would arise.

“But…”

Lexi’s voice wavered with urgency. “But what about Ms. Quillen? She’s still inside! How can we leave now?”

“This is still the Five Poison Sect’s stronghold. If we don’t strike now, we’ll have to fall back. Otherwise, the enemy will certainly launch a counterattack.”

But no one was willing to listen.

Magnus feli a deeper sense of helplessness as he watched their faces filled with hesitation.

Suddenly, noises came from all directions.

What’s happening? The ground is shaking!”

“The stone hall is moving!”

“Be careful! There are traps!”

“Retreat! Quickly!”

Magnus commanded with urgency.

“But Strategist, if we retreat now, what if Li Anna and the others bring the Saintess back? Who will protect them?”

Iron Head called out, his voice filled with concern.

“Stop being naive! The Five Poison Sect is launching a counterattack, which means they have regained control and found a breakthrough. Mrs. Lowe will never make it out of there!”

Magnus‘ frustration boiled over.

This battle had been beyond his control, and he felt utterly powerless in his leadership.

If it hadn’t been for the personal favor owed to Emmanuel and his younger sister, he would never have agreed to fight this battle.

“No! I won’t leave! If you want to retreat, then go!”

Lexi’s voice rang out with firm defiance.

Ironskull shouted loudly, “Now that the enemy is preparing to strike, this is our best opportunity to break in and rescue Her Holiness! We cannot let it slip away!”

“Right! We won’t retreat either! Let’s go!”

Even the usually timid Ostrich, who had always been fearful of trouble, suddenly found some courage the face of danger.

With their leadership, the others refused to retreat.

In the end, even Claudette and Hattie refused to leave.

Magnus, feeling a sense of desperation, couldn’t help but laugh bitterly. He began to question his own arrogance. How could he have brought these people to the front lines?

At that moment, waves of toxic gas began to pour out.

“Bail news! It’s poison gas!”

Finished

As the Wolf Warrior Unit soldier shouted, Magnus had ready put on his gas mask. He quickly helped his sister and Claudette with theirs.

He had predicted that after the enemy used their hidden weapons, a large–scale release of poison gas was

imminent.

Fortunately, the Wolf Warrior Unit troops were well–equipped. They quickly used blowers to push the poison gas back.

However, this was still a semi–enclosed space. The increasing gas would eventually envelop them. Even if they weren’t poisoned, they could suffocate!

What should they do?

“We have to retreat! Or it’ll be too late!”

grabbed his

Magnus, no longer concerned with anyone else, and Claudette, pulling them to retreat.

This was the first time Hattie had seen her usually calm and strategic brother so frantic.

Yet Claudette shook off his hand and resolutely shook her head. “No. Now that I’m here, I’ll stay and face whatever comes with everyone!”

Suddenly, fragments of memories rushed into her mind.

She seemed to remember a similar situation.

She had once been surrounded by many people with a man by her side. The situation was just as urgent back then!

She had to keep pushing herself, trying to recall the full details of that memory.

“Claudette!”

Magnus tried to pull her again.

But Claudette suddenly recalled the man’s face. Her expression shifted to one of alarm, and she pushed him away with a swift motion, her teeth gritted as she hissed, “Magnus, how long are you going to keep pretending?”

What was going on?

Upon hearing Claudette’s words, Magnus froze in place, stunned.

Laura also froze in disbelief.

Then, they saw Claudette clutching her head in agony, kneeling on the ground. It was clear what had happened. Could this intense crisis have triggered her memories, causing her to recall something deeply etched in her heart?

“Hehehe, none of you are getting away!”

Suddenly, the door to the stone hall burst open. Several dark figures quickly shot out.

So fast!®

Fished

Ironskull’s face went pale. This speed was so incredible that even among the Black Wolf Team, only the three top leaders would possess such a level.

“Fire!”

The elite soldiers of the Wolf Warrior Unit, highly trained in combat, reacted swiftly, opening fire on the dark figures.

After a brief exchange of gunfire, they were shocked to see a man with explosive hair standing in front of them, completely unscathed!

“This… this is impossible! His defense is insane!

Aurora’s expression turned grim. Who wore these people?

“Hehehe, allow us, the Ten Grand Protectors of the Five Poison Sect, to show you our strength and capture your commander alive!”

The man with explosive hair laughed triumphantly.

In an instant, several dark figures leaped from behind him. One of them, a tall woman, moved with such speed that ordinary people couldn’t even see her. Within moments, she had wiped out a large portion of the troops!

Ironskull nearly met his end with a single blow, but being a martial artist, he managed to dodge the fatal strike. However, he collapsed to the ground, his leg bleeding profusely. He could already smell the scent of death.

“You… who are you?”

Ironskull couldn’t help but grit his teeth and ask.

“I am the Grand Scorpion Protector, the fastest in the Five Poison Sect!”

The tall woman smiled with pride. “We were sent by the Great Matriarch. Don’t worry, your death will be quick. You won’t even feel the pain!”

“And I’m the Grand Centipede Protector, the one with the most destructive power in the Five Poison Sect! Let me show you just how terrifying I am!”

As the man with explosive hair and the tall woman took center stage, a massive man with enormous arms stepped forward, unwilling to be overshadowed. He leaped into the air and smashed his fists into the ground, creating a massive crater.

A chorus of screams followed as the elite Wolf Warrior Unit suffered even greater losses!

Fear!

Despair!

These emotions were reflected on the faces of the Wolf Warrior Unit soldiers.

Hattie glanced at her brother, understanding that his worst fears had come true. After the Five Poison Sect

Finished

With the Wolf Warrior Unit’s strongest warriors missing, the Five Poison Sect had sent their fastest, most durable, and most explosive fighters to break through. No one could stop them now!

“Die, all of you!”

The giant–armed man leaped into the air, targeting Hallie with a crushing blow.

“Hattic!”

For the first time, Magnus cried out in panic. His sister was the most important person to him!

Hattie’s beautiful eyes widened in horror, as memories and thoughts of her impending death flooded her mind.

Just then, a silver dragon suddenly soared into the sky, cutting through the darkness!
