Chapter 967 Help Has Arrived
Chapter 967 Help Has Arrived
At that moment, in the vast Vermillion Base, Thalia and Spencer were being relentlessly pursued.
Wielding both sword and gun, Thalia was drenched in blood. In the pitch-black night, she was like a demon that emerged straight from hell, striking fear into the hearts of all.
Knowing she was tough to handle, those people focused their firepower on Spencer.
Even though Spencer had some skills, his expertise did not lie there, making him seem somewhat out of his depth.
While Thalia was on a killing spree, a sudden shout rang out beside her ear. “Watch your man!”
After Alexia shouted, Thalia looked toward Spencer, only to see a group of people had completely surrounded him.
Upon seeing that, Thalia immediately furrowed her brows. “Be careful, Spencer.”
Spencer turned around, only to see someone attacking him from directly above. Fortunately, Thalia spoke up just in time, saving him from disaster.
After dodging directly, Spencer started fighting with that person.
Just then, someone daringly lunged at Thalia. Without even looking, Thalia swiftly swung her blade, and the person fell to the ground instantly.
Then, looking in the direction of Spencer, she charged straight toward him.
She teamed up with Spencer and swiftly took out the few people surrounding them.
But at that moment, Spencer was already covered in countless wounds.
“How are you? Are you okay?” Thalia asked.
Spencer smirked. “It's just a minor injury.”
Thalia looked at him, then seemed to think of something. She immediately took out the medicine she had on her and placed it on him. “I'll cover for you. Take the medicine and leave immediately. Just keep going straight from here. The exit is at the end. Don't look back.”
Looking at her, Spencer furrowed his brows. “You know I would never leave you behind!”
“Spencer—” Just as Thalia was about to say something, someone suddenly attacked her from behind. Seeing that, Spencer immediately threw the dagger in his hand at the attacker.
Struck in the throat, that person fell down immediately.
After eliminating the trouble, Spencer looked at her. “I know what you want to say. Either you take the medicine and leave, and I'll cover for you, or we stick together. No matter what, we will stay together.” He spoke slowly, his dark eyes appearing solemn and profound.
“Spencer...” Thalia furrowed her brows.
“Since you can't decide, I'll choose for you!” With that, Spencer took her hand firmly. “Let's stay together!” As he spoke, he looked at the people gradually closing in behind him. “I believe Kenneth will definitely come.”
Thalia couldn't say anything else after listening to Spencer.
For the first time, she didn't feel so terrified in a place like that.
At that thought, a smile tugged at the corner of her lips. She looked at those who were coming to claim their lives and murmured, “Spencer, this is the first time in all these years that I feel no fear
while on a mission. I'm even feeling an indescribable sense of happiness.”
Spencer didn't know what to say, gripping her hand even tighter.
If it weren't for that brush with death, he probably would never have understood the life Thalia was leading. The things she did were just a job in their eyes, but only after experiencing it firsthand did he realize that she was always flirting with death, always relying on a stroke of luck.
“From now on, we'll always be together,” Spencer said, gripping her hand tightly.
“Okay.”
So, when those people rushed up, Thalia, armed with a sharp weapon, charged directly at them.
Within the crowd, two individuals fought as if possessed, their coordination seamless. Yet, no matter how skilled they were, they were still outnumbered, and it was inevitable that they would sustain injuries.
Not far away, Alexia was watching and decided to join them.
Just like that, they killed any enemies who approached them.
In the depths of the night, bodies were strewn all over the ground, and blood was splattered everywhere.
At that moment, the tank was relentlessly seeking their direction. When it saw them engaged in a scuffle, it suddenly took aim at them.
Thalia's ears twitched, and sensing something, she looked behind her. “Watch out!”
The moment she cried out, the tank suddenly fired.
The watch that Anthony was wearing would occasionally emit an alarm reminder.
He knew that Thalia was in danger and was calling out to them for help.
“Can you drive a bit faster?” Anthony asked him.
Hearing that, Cosmos floored the accelerator. “Any faster and this car will take flight.”
Feeling helpless, Anthony immediately pulled out his phone to call Kenneth. However, no one answered.
“Sh*t!” Anthony couldn't help but curse under his breath. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Cosmos glanced at him. Even though he had countless questions for Anthony, he knew how desperate Anthony was at the moment. So, all Cosmos could do was to drive the car faster and steadier.
Anthony lifted his gaze, looking outward. In the distance, a lighthouse stood, its light flickering on and off.
Upon seeing that, something suddenly occurred to Anthony. Without hesitation, he pulled out his laptop and placed it directly on his lap.
Upon opening it, Anthony suddenly entered an interface, his fingers swiftly maneuvering on the computer.
Inside Vermillion Base, just as they were about to be surrounded and captured, several cars approached from behind.
The cars headed straight toward them at such a high speed that they could even send people flying.
At that moment, someone leaned out from the vehicle, and a barrage of gunfire erupted toward them.
Seeing that, Thalia looked behind her.
Intuitively, she fathomed help had arrived.
Watching people fall one by one before her, Thalia seized the opportunity to rise and head toward Spencer's direction.
In the soil, Spencer appeared to still be in a semi-conscious state.
“Spencer, how are you?” Thalia called his name. “Wake up, Kenneth is here. Spencer.”
Thalia called his name over and over again, but Spencer showed no response at all.
At that moment, a sudden sense of foreboding flashed through her heart.
She extended her hand, slowly reaching toward his nose.
Her hands were trembling. For her, those brief seconds felt like an eternity.
However, just as her hand was about to reach his nose, Spencer suddenly coughed and woke up.
Seeing that, Thalia suddenly relaxed.
“Spencer, Spencer, I'm so glad you're okay!” As she spoke, Thalia directly embraced him.
“Do you have any idea how scared I was? From now on, you're staying home and taking care of your health. No more running around!” Thalia said, holding him and crying.
Spencer couldn't help but smile as he was held in her arms, listening to her words.
“Thalia, once this matter is over, shall we find a place to live a good life?” he asked, looking at Thalia.
Hearing that, Thalia suddenly froze, looking at Spencer incredulously. “A-Are you serious?”
“Yes.” Spencer nodded.
Thalia laughed, looking at him as she nodded emphatically. “You said it. No take-backs!”
“No take-backs!”
Thalia looked at him, reached out directly, and held him tightly in her arms.
