Chapter 1863 Embracing the World
At this thought, Seren quietly reached into his waist and grasped a sharp dagger. With a simple unlock from the system, he would stab Felix’s carotid artery. Once Felix dies, everything would come to an end.
But before that, Felix aimed his eyes at the camera.
A “beep” sound came from the screen.
Immediately after, a long siren sounded abruptly, and the words “System Unlocked” flashed in alarming red, startling the eyes.
Seren smirked with a sinister smile from hell, suddenly raising his hand with lightning speed. The sharp tip of the knife aimed straight at Felix’s carotid artery.
Luther closely watched Seren’s every move. He knew Seren had no good intentions. When Luther caught sight of Seren making a secret move, he was shocked and immediately tried to intervene. However, Seren’s reaction speed was also fast when it came to sneak attacks.
As Luther watched, the blade of the dagger was already inches away from Felix’s neck, a matter of split seconds.
Luther’s heart sank. This is bad!
No one expected that at this critical moment, there would be someone faster, and that person was Vicki.
Vicki’s leg lifted high, delivering a powerful downward kick directly onto Seren’s wrist.
Seren’s hand slipped, and the knife blade grazed across Felix’s shoulder, tearing a gash through his clothes and flesh.
Vicki followed up with a perfect and elegant side kick, striking Seren with tremendous force, sending him crashing to the ground.
The impact was so strong that it felt like a boulder had hit Seren’s chest, leaving him breathless and stunned, unable to react.
Felix was in excruciating pain, but he still pressed the final operation button until the screen displayed “System Re-Locked.” Only then did he cover his injured shoulder and collapse to the ground. In fact, his overseas network key was never set with an iris system, only fingerprint access. What Seren saw as the system unlock interface was actually Felix secretly unlocking it with his fingerprint. On the other hand, when Felix looked into the camera with his eyes, he added an additional iris recognition key, adding an extra layer of security to the vault.
He wanted to firmly hold the chips in his hands through this method, instead of being blackmailed by Seren. He had to rescue Vicki. But he never expected that when Seren impatiently tried to kill him, it was Vicki who saved him at the most dangerous moment. Vicki had already freed herself from the restraints long ago, which was why she remained calm throughout.
Seren finally recovered, quickly climbing up from the ground, staring at Vicki in horror. “When did you untie the ropes?”
“I untied them on the way here, you fool,” Vicki glanced at Felix’s bleeding shoulder, a hint of cruelty in her eyes.
Seren roared in anger, “You deceitful woman! You tricked me!” He was too careless, thinking he could control Vicki.
Vicki sneered, “Did you think I’m still the same as before? How could I let you blackmail me?!”
After speaking, she exchanged a glance with Luther. Luther understood, and they both lunged towards Seren, attacking him together.
Seren’s skills were exceptional, and the three of them instantly engaged in a fierce battle.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
The entire hall descended into chaos. The previous scene happened too quickly. The other black-clad individuals, upon realizing what happened, were immediately ordered by their leader to join in the fight. They all drew their guns.
For Luther and Vicki, who were unarmed, being targeted by guns was undoubtedly dangerous. They could be injured or even killed at any moment. But they couldn’t afford to care about that. They attacked Seren while protecting the injured Felix, even though they were aware of the imminent danger.
Suddenly, one of the armed men fell heavily to the ground before he could pull the trigger, blood gushing from his chest as his gun fell from his hand, rendering him immobile.
Following that, more and more black-clad individuals fell one after another, experiencing the same fate without having a chance to fire their guns.
The speed was so fast, all within two or three seconds.
A black-clad person shouted, “Not good! There’s a sniper from an oblique angle!”
Before he could finish his sentence, he fell to the ground as well.
On top of the spire, Joyce and Darrin finally found an opportunity to take action. Under Joyce’s command, they almost simultaneously fired their guns. Within a few seconds, they shot down five or six black-clad individuals in rapid succession.
Joyce muttered, “It’s a shame. Seren is on the other side, and I can’t aim at him.”
Darrin responded, “I have a clear angle, but Mr. Warner and Vickiare constantly changing their positions. Shooting recklessly could be dangerous.”
Joyce frowned. “Let’s change our position. Let me take the shot.”
“Okay.” Darrin immediately stood up and gave up his position.
Joyce found a new spot, aimed for a moment, then shook her head. “No, I can’t shoot.”
She put down the sniper rifle. She had done everything she could, and now it was up to them. From the top of the spire, she anxiously watched the battle. Although she couldn’t see clearly from such a distance, her heart raced nervously, fearing any misstep from Luther.
Inside the hall, chaos intensified. As gunshots echoed, people from both Mr. Ball’s side and Seren’s side rushed in, creating a melee.
For the sniper, there was no longer any way to take a shot.
Luther and Vicki surrounded Seren, gaining the upper hand. However, in the midst of the melee, the situation became increasingly unclear.
Vicki grew impatient. No matter what, today she must capture Seren at all costs. The nightmare of many years must come to an end today. She seized the opportunity, lightly tapping her toe on the ground, hooking the knife on the floor, and with a swift motion, she caught it mid-air, landing securely in her palm.
She held the knife in a reverse grip and fiercely stabbed towards Seren’s heart.
As long as she captured Seren, everything would finally come to an end, and she could rest easy.
Seren watched himself losing ground, unable to believe that his flawlessly planned scheme had crumbled entirely in Vicki’s hands. Though he felt unwilling, years of lurking had forced him to face reality.
As he watched Vicki about to deliver a fatal blow, he suddenly slammed himself to the ground. A smoke flashbang exploded instantly, filling the entire hall with smoke and blinding flashes, making it impossible for anyone to open their eyes.
Not only that, the tremendous shockwave forced Vicki and Luther to take several steps back, their heads spinning from the impact.
Enduring the intense pain in his shoulder, Felix rushed forward when Vicki was thrown off, catching her firmly. After retreating a few steps, he fell to the ground, landing with Vicki on top of him.
Vicki thought she would suffer a harsh landing, her vision obscured by the smoke. However, she landed on a soft body, completely unscathed.
Feeling the pain from the impact, Felix couldn’t help but let out a low groan. But even so, he held onto Vicki tightly, protecting her as if embracing the whole world.
