Ch. 791..800

Chapter 791

Ivor relied on the dim light and saw the big red stain on Bonnie's white shirt. Her delicate face had turned so pale that she barely looked alive. Chapter

Feeling a lump in his throat, he hurried over to check on her. He wanted to touch her shoulder, but thought about how he might hurt her and withdrew his hand.

He was sure what could be done at this moment. "Why did you do it, Bonnie? Why?" 'Bonnie got injured because of me. How am I supposed to live with that?' "I'll be fine. It's just a minor injury." Half of her shoulder was numb, but she was still trying to soothe him.

"H-How could you say that? I-It's such a bad injury." His eyes turned red as he looked at her. He was so heartbroken that he was having trouble speaking. "You're such a dummy. How could you expose yourself to such a critical injury?" She forced a smile on her pale face. Then, she reached out with her other hand and patted him on the shoulder. She teased him. "Why do you think you're the only one doing the protecting around here? Don't you think I can do the sfor you? Look. You've keptsafe so many times. It's only right that I repay the favor." "I don't need your protection, Bonnie. What I need is for you to stay safe." He could smell the stench of blood in the stuffy air. Every breath he took pained him deeply.

She snorted lightly. "You say that, but I did protect you from the boulder. So, you're not getting out of this." "That's the furthest thing from my mind," he explained hastily.

She put a finger on his lips. "Hush. know that's not what you mean, but, right now, we have to get the heck out of here. We'll run out of oxygen if we stay too long in the tunnel."

Gripping his arm, she said helplessly, "The boulder landed on my hand My feet are fine. I can walk by myself. There's no need for you to carry me. Preserve your stamina for when I really need it. Then, I'll let you carry me." śFind"A-Alright. I'll just hold your hand, then," Taking her hand carefully, he laid eyes on her bloodstained shirt. It was such a heartbreaking sight.

"Okay." She followed his pace and walked over to a safer spot.

Treading through the tunnel together, they could feel that they had grown closer to one another.

Back at the tunnel entrance, Tom was barking orders, directing the excavators to demolish the tunnel.

Several minutes later, a group of men walked over to him from afar.

The leader of the group was none other than Shane.

When he first landed in Everpeak, he had gotten in touch with Tom.

contract with Tom. On top of that, the latter would gain five percent from the profit they made from this quarry Then, he sealed the deal by giving Tom five hundred million dollars. That was why Tom agreed to set Ivor up for him.

'Yeah. I paid through my nose to make this plan work, but all I care is can't but all! about is that can teach Ivor a lesson. I don't give a damn about the kind of money I have to pay.' Search the Find_Nøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

 

Chapter 792

Tom saw Shane coming over and flashed him a smile.

"You're here, Mr. Shane. I've done everything according to your orders. Are you satisfied with how it turned out?" "Nicely done." Shane gave Tom an approving look before standing at the tunnel entrance and peering inside. "How long have they been in there?" Tom counted the tand responded, "They've been in there for about half an hour. They're probably halfway in the tunnel by now. It's impossible for them to escape." His eyes glinted with menace as he heard what Tom said.

"Heh. Ivor Knight went overseas for an inspection and was tragically killed when a tunnel collapsed. His fiancé died along with him.

"This will becthe media's headline for their articles. Once something happens to Ivor, the entire Knight family will be thrown into disarray. The Knight Group's stock price will surely plummet too. "That's when I'll poach all of their collaborators. I'll becthe richest man in Pyralis in no time!" 'I just wanted to teach Ivor and Bonnie a lesson. I wasn't out to take their lives. With how things are going, though, I might as well make use of the situation and up my game.

'More to the point, I have to kill Ivor and destroy the Knight Group if I want to becthe wealthiest man in Pyralis!' Tom congratulated him immediately.

"Congratulations, Mr. Shane. Your wish is about to ctrue soon enough. When the fateful day comes, I hope you remember to share sof your wealth withas well." "Consider it done, Tom." Shane smiled. Reaching out, he patted him on the shoulder. "You're the main reason I'm able to pull this off. I wouldn't forget about you if I had something suitable for you later." Tom knew that Shane was a generous man. So, he was thrilled to hear what the latter said.

"Thank you, Mr. Shane. I'll be waiting for your good news, then." Shane looked at the tunnel, which was still collapsing. Then, he laughed wickedly.

"Hahaha! From here on out, Ivor is history! This is fantastic! No one's going to get in my way ever again!" Tom led everyone to give him a round of applause. Things were looking merry for them. Chapter

Back in the storehouse, Floyd looked outright miserable while Jim was trying to find spossible escape routes.

"Who would've thought that Tom was this vicious? How dare he set us up?4 swear I'm going to rip kim to shreds the moment we here." Stout of Floyd gnashed his teeth. He was beside himself with rage.

With that said, he still couldn't figure something out.

"The thing is, we didn't have any bad blood with him. We were even having a good twith him, too. So, why would he do something like this?" "He might've done it in exchange for a better deal," Jim said as he found a crowbar.

Walking over to the door, he tried hard to pry the door open.

"A better deal?" Floyd frowned and stood where he was, pondering on it. " guess that makes sense. That begs alquestion, though. Who could've offered him a bette deal than the one Mr. Ivor did?" Content "That's hard to say." Jim saw another crowbar out of the corner of his eyes. Picking it up, he tossed it at Floyd's feet.

"Forget about all that for now. We

have to get out of here as soon as we can and check on Bonnie and ivor! I suspect they sent us away because they're going to do

something to both of them. Content S'ach Th FindNøvelt website on Google to access chapters of early and in the highest quality. "It would've been fine if they were after money. On the other hand, if they're after their lives, then..."

Chapter 793

Jim didn't finish his sentence. It wasn't as if he needed to finish it, either. Both he and Floyd knew just how serious things were now.

Floyd picked up the crowbar and helped Jim to pry the door open. He said, "Hurry up. We have to get the door open as fast as we can. Otherwise, something bad might happen." "Okay." Jim responded and threw his weight behind the crowbar, the veins on his muscles started to show through his shirt.

"Give it everything you've got. The door is poorly built. We just have to exert more pressure, and it should swing wide open." A dozen minutes later, both of them were yelling. "Ahh!" The next thing they knew, they heard a loud bang. The storehouse door had swung open.

Wiping the sweat from his brow, Floyd said, "We finally pried the door open. Let's head out and look for Mr. Ivor and Ms. Bonnie now." He couldn't wait, not even a minute. He started racing toward the tunnel. To his surprise, he had just taken a couple of steps when Jim grabbed the back of his collar.

"Simmer down." Floyd stopped in his tracks and turned around, puzzled.

"What's the matter, Master Jim?" "I'm going to look for them. You should go back to the hotel and get us sreinforcements." Jim told him his plan. Chapter

'I'm no match for Jim when it comes to combat prowess. Letting him save Ivor and Bonnie is the best plan now. After that, he just has to buy stuntil I return here with backup.' "Alright. I'm going to get more men and cback. I'm leaving Mr. Ivor and Ms. Bonnie in your hands, Master Jim. Please stay safe." "Okay," Jim responded dryly before racing toward the tunnel. His face was grim, but his footsteps were sure and lightning-fast.

'I have to get to them as soon as possible! They have to hang in there until I arrive!' Shane stood above the tunnel and stomped hard on the soil beneath him, his eyes filled with twisted pleasure.

"Hahaha! We have to make sure Ivor and e are buried underneath They'll be trapped in e forever and ever. Haha!" Still stomping on the soil, he cackled maniacally, giving rise to the look of a madman.

Tom stood next to him and kissed up to him. "I'm sure they're not going to be able to escape at this rate excavator is going to destroy the tunnel and bury them along with it." Shane's laughter grew crazed the moment he heard that.

"Hahaha! That'd be wonderful. I will have finally taken out the biggest obstacle on my road to becoming the wealthiest man in Pyralis."

Tom laughed along, trying to please Shane. He was about to continue buttering Shane up, when he heard a sarcastic voice. "What makes you think you have what it takes to becsomeone like that? Dream on, Shane!" 'The voice sounded so familiar...

'Wait a minute. I-Is that Bonnie?!' Shane whipped his head around and found himself staring at her cold eyes. His eyes widened in shock. "Y-You... Um..."

Before he could even begin to speak, she had closed in their distance with lightning speed The next thing he knew she lifted her feet high and kicked him squarely in the belly. Everyone was still in shock when he was sent flying into the air and tumbled down the top of the tunnel.

 

Chapter 794

"Eeek!" Shane let out an ear-piercing shriek.

Tom's face fell. "Mr. Shane!" He was about to turn around when Bonnie appeared in front of him.

Her lips curled into a wicked grin when she met his gaze. "Weren't you about to go down there and look for him? Worry not, I'm going to send you down as well." Tom's face was filled with fear instantly. Then, he kept taking steps back when he spoke.

"N-No." "Heh heh heh..." She sneered and snorted lightly. "I'm not asking." He tried to run, but she caught him. Twisting his wrist, she kicked his bottom squarely and booted him down there.

Tom's miserable cries rose in the air. He rolled all the way down until he crashed into Shane.

"Ouch!" At first, Shane had scrambled to his feet, but he fell again when Tom rammed into him. It was so painful that he felt as if someone had broken his back.

Holding his waist, he kept groaning out of pain. His face was contorted with agony as well.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Shane. Are you okay?" The slope wasn't exactly steep. So, falling from the top of the tunnel wouldn't have killed them.

With that said, both of their suits were littered with dust, making them look miserable.

Shane helped himself up with Tom's support. Staring at Bonnie, who was standing on top of the tunnel, his eyes were filled with unbridled fury.

"Didn't you say they were trapped in the tunnel and that they'd be buried with it soon enough? What's the meaning of this? Why are they on the surface now? Care to explain?" "I... Um..." Tom didn't count on Bonnie and Ivor being this lucky.

'I can't believe they escaped such a dire situation. How am I supposed to explain it to Shane? 'After all, I cut corners when I carried out the whole thing. Now, however, I'm exposed. So, how am I supposed to explain it?' Shane was starting to see something now. In a matter of a second, he was pissed off.

"Cat got your tongue? Hurry up and spill it. I demand an explanation!" Tom's eyes got shifty as he lowered his head. He simply didn't dare to say anything. Chapter

Shane's face grew more forbidding as the second passed by. He was about to say something when he saw both Bonnie and Ivor coming down from the top of the tunnel. Both of them walked toward him, side by side.

Bonnie spoke leisurely as she strolled toward him. "It's fine if he didn't know how to tell you. I'm more than happy to do it for him. I'm sure you don't know about it yet.

mining tunnel.

"Suffice it to say that he simply couldn't bring himself to dig up the entire tunnel. So he merely dug the O front it part of it. He decided to use the soil to block our path and trap us in there, suffocating us.

"What he didn't count on is that the workers dug an emergency recovery shaft. Fortune Fortune smiled uponfus and showed us to that shaft. That's how we managed to escape the tunnel in one piece." Then, she looked at Shane and said leisurely, I'm sorry to have disappointed you, Shane. It's just not our tyet. You went through such a great deal of trouble, only to cup short of killing us." Shane felt the full brunt of her sarcasm.

He looked downright terrible. His face turned as red as blood. Turningm around, he glared at Tom and his eyes turned red as well. He looked like he could throttle him. "I can't believe I placed that much faith in you. How dare you playfor a fool? Just wait and see. You're going to pay for this!"

 

Chapter 795

Tom was so shocked by what Shane said that a bead of sweat rolled down his forehead.

"It's pointless to talk about this now, Mr. Shane. Now that it has cto this, we should work together and figure out a way to kill both of them." Then, he looked at Bonnie and Ivor, his eyes brimming with menace.

"We brought with us dozens of bodyguards, Mr. Shane. And there are only two of them. We'll just kill them right now and announce to the public that they were buried in the tunnel because of a freak accident. It'll achieve the sresult." Shane thought about what he said and found that it made sense.

'Fighting with Tom wouldn't help my situation one bit. My priority should be killing both of them now. Only then could we carry on with our plan.' "You got a point! We'll take care of them first and leave the rest until after that." "Exactly. I'm so happy that you see reason, Mr. Shane." Tom was counting on creating a sense of camaraderie with Shane, so the latter wouldn't blhim for anything.

'Once that's established, there's no way Shane will find fault within the future.

'All that's left now is to kill off Ivor and Bonnie! As long as I keep doing everything Shane wants, he's going to remember how useful I am when he finds success.' The more he thought about it, the more Tom felt thrilled.

Turning around, he yelled, "Gather around, everyone!" There were only several bodyguards with them earlier. Now, however, dozens of bodyguards cout of the mounds at his order.

They formed ranks and created a sea of black.

Ivor saw it and pursed his lips. Stepping forward, he shielded Bonnie behind his back.

"Don't be afraid, Bonnie. I'll keep you safe." He didn't say or do anything just now because they talked it over back at the tunnel. Chapter

'She insisted on teaching Shane and Tom a lesson with her own hands. That's why I reluctantly agreed to let her do it.

'Now, however, things are different. I have to step forward and keep her safe. No harm is going to befall her as long as I'm around." "I'll be fine. I'm not afraid because I know you're here with me," she said confidently, her eyes brimming with fearlessness.

'I've never been afraid under these circumstances, nor have I shied away in the past.

'Death is the worst thing that can happen to me. That's not a big deal at all.

"Very well!" He responded solemnly. Holding her hand, he clasped her fingers.

They felt each other's warmth through their palms, which provided both of them with an infinite supply of courage.

Shane saw what they were doing, and his eyes were filled with mockery.

"Heh... You guys are such a lovely couple. It's such a shthat you'll be dead soon." She met his gaze. There was nothing but coldness and tenacity in her eyes.

"This isn't your call to make, Shane! We control our own fates. We don't need you to tell us how things are going to end for us."

"Keep up with the tough talk! Take a look at your situation now. Do I have to spell it out for you? There are only two of you. How are you guys supposed to win my bodyguards? There are dozens of them.

"Perhaps you should just save your breath. You might as well get on your knees and apologize. Tellyou're wrong. and start begging for your lives. Lethear it. That way, I might consider giving you a quick death." Shane was very sure that both of them could never slip through his fingers.

'Yeah. Both of them are pretty good

fighters. How's that going to help them, though? I've got dozens of dozens bodyguards witte the could just keep sending them to fight until they ran out of stamina. How are they supposed to be fighting againstnow?' She sneered in response. Just as she was about to say something, she heard a deep voice from nearby.

Chapter 796

"What makes you think there's just the two of them? Don't countout!" Jim stepped out slowly from behind Bonnie and Ivor, looking like an impenetrable mountain.

Shane's face fell the moment he saw Jim. Turning around, he looked at Tom and questioned the latter, "Didn't you say you locked him and Floyd up in the storehouse? You guaranteed that nothing could go wrong. Tell me, then. What is Jim doing here now? He personally saw just how formidable Jim was. With him in Bonnie's ranks, it was that much more difficult to kill them now.

"Um... I did lock them up in the storehouse. I have no idea how he got out." Tom looked very puzzled. He had no idea how Jim escaped.

With that said, he quickly calmed down and tried to soothe Shane.

"It's just one more guy, Mr. Shane. He's not going to be able to make a difference. We still have dozens of bodyguards with us. Are we supposed to be frightened by three of them?" 'I've hired stop-notch bodyguards from an international organization. So, what if Jim is an excellent fighter? There's no way he could take on all of them and win the fight!' At the thought of it, Shane felt much better. Chapter

Turning around, he waved at the bodyguards. "Take them out. Don't pull back any punches. Hit them till they drop!" "Roger!" The bodyguards responded to him unanimously. Then, they charged right at Bonnie and the gang.

Bonnie, Ivor, and Jim prepared themselves to teach these bodyguards a lesson.

Ivor stepped forward subtly, putting her behind his back.

"You suffered a heavy injury. Maybe don't join the fight. Jim and I will take care of this." When Jim heard that she was injured, he scanned her from head to toe. Then, his brows furrowed when he saw the blood stain on her shoulder. "What happened? Why are you so badly injured?" She moved her arm and responded as if she wasn't fazed. "I'm fine. It's just a minor injury. I'll just apply ssalve, and it'll patch up in a few days." "You're bleeding, for heaven's sake.

How's that a minor injury? Are you sure you want to join the fight? Aren't you worried that your arm might be ruined forever? Also, how are you supposed to conduct your beloved research if you don't have one of your arm?" The longer he talked, the more pissed off he sounded.

| "I'm fine. I mean it." She frowned slightly. "Moreover, both of you might not be able to fend them off if I don't join in the fight. If I fight alongside you, however, at least I Search The FindNøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

can take on sof the opponents."

"You're in bad shape. It's better if you take it easy. Don't do anything rash! Leave them to us. We just have to hold out a little. Help is on the way." Jim said. The moment she heard that reinforcements were coming, she took a step back and stopped pushing herself.

"Alright. I'll leave these bodyguards to you. I'm aware that you guys are worried about me. So, don't worry! about it won't do anything unless I don't have a choice." "Okay." Jim nodded. Turning around, he dealt with several bodyguards charging his way.

In the blink of an eye, both Jim and Ivor had taken out several of them. The bodyguards were lying on the floor, groaning out of pain. They couldn't have climbed to the feet, even if they wanted to. Shane saw what happened and grew agitated.

"Get up, you fools! Aren't you guys elite bodyguards from a reputable organization? How is it that you guys can't take care of two people?"

 

Chapter 797

Tom didn't expect Ivor and Jim would be this tough once they teamed up. He gulped heavily and took a step back instinctively. Shane's face fell. His eyes were filled with disdain when he looked at Tom. "What a weasel!" A hint of embarrassment flashed across Tom's face at that. He hung his head and didn't make a peep. Shane hated the fact that Tom couldn't do better. Tearing his gaze away, he looked at the bodyguards behind him coldly.

"Listen to me! Anyone who seizes them will be rewarded with 10 million dollars! Hurry up and get a move on!" 'The bodyguards aren't giving their all to the fight. I've got no choice but to give them sadditional incentive.' The moment all of them heard that there were 10 million dollars to be had, they got excited in a matter of a second.

"Charge!" Throwing money at the issue worked for Shane. His bodyguards were giving all they've got into the fight now.

Ivor and Jim formed a perimeter around Bonnie and kept her in the center of it, protecting her from every assailant.

Realizing that there were more bodyguards around them, she couldn't help but frown. "Stop trying to protect me. Letgive you a hand. I can lighten your load if I join in the fight. I'll just avoid using my hands." Jim parted his lips. He was about to say something when he heard Ivor's voice.

"That won't be necessary. You're injured. So, just concentrate on resting. Don't concern yourself with everything else." "That's right. Get srest. I mean it when I tell you to leave the fight to us. We're going to keep you safe, and that's that." Jim agreed with Ivor wholeheartedly.

She looked helpless and said, "Alright. Okay. I'll do as you guys say." 'I just can't argue with both of them. They're treatingas if I'm shelpless damsel. When have I been that weak?' After that, Ivor and Jim dove back into the fight.

She'd alert them from tto time, trying to keep them from getting hurt.

Shane saw what was happening and decided he couldn't let things run their course. So, he waved at the bodyguards next to him.

"Over here." A bodyguard walked over to him and asked, "Your orders, Mr. Shane?" He gave him a look, hinting at him to look at where Bonnie was. Then, he lowered his voice and whispered, "Capture Bonnie and use her against them." "Roger." The bodyguard responded and snuck from the back to try to seize her.

Shane curled his lips, revealing a wicked grin.

'Don't blme for doing this. After all, they're the ones who overestimated themselves and messed up someone they shouldn't have!' Before long, that particular bodyguard snuck to a spot behind Bonnie. He arched his body and waited for an opportunity to strike. She sensed it and rubbed her feet on the ground gently, preparing herself to strike back at him.

On the other hand, the bodyguard didn't realize that. His face was filled with menace as he pulled out a knife and darted after her.

She saw him out of the corner of her eyes. Her lips curled and a hint of mockery flashed in her eyes. Chapter

'Heh. What a fool. I can't believe this bodyguard's trying to sneak up on me. Oh, he's going to know the meaning of pain soon.' She was in the middle of her

thoughts when the bodyguard S~{a}}h the FindNøvel.''t website on Google to access chapters of early and in the highest quality. closed the distance. She knew what he was going to do. So, she took a step back before giving him a roundhouse kick, sending him flying.

However, this bodyguard was obviously much stronger than the et

others. He merely took a couple of steps back before he regained his e footing an charged at her again.

 

Chapter 798

Clenching her fists, Bonnie started trading blows with the bodyguard.

Ivor and Jim noticed it. They wanted to go over and lend her a hand, but the other bodyguards were keeping them occupied.

Ivor was worried that she might suffer heavier injuries if this kept up. His face was filled with concern.

Even Jim was a little bothered. He dealt heavier blows by the second, doing his best to take out the surrounding bodyguards, so he could race to her as fast as he could. However, the bodyguards just kept coming.

It was becoming clear to Bonnie that this particular bodyguard wasn't easy to deal with.

If she had been in better shape, she wouldn't have had any problem dealing with the likes of him. She could've taken on ten of them, for crying out loud.

With that said, her shoulder was injured. The fact that she stayed in the tunnel for so long meant that she was asphyxiated. So, she was not on top of her game.

It was not like she was losing ground with this particular bodyguard, but keeping him away was a little difficult. She wasn't too worried about it. If she was lacking in the stamina department, then she'd make up for it using her skills! Halfway through the fight, the bodyguard was starting to realize that Bonnie wasn't as frail as she made herself out to be. So, he, too, started getting serious.

Both of them were locked in deadly combat. At first, she could deal with him with ease. As twent by, though, she was getting more tired. At one point, she pulled her shoulder and let out a painful groan. "Ugh..." The bodyguard seized the opportunity. His eyes were filled with menace as he swung the knife at her.

She reacted, but not fast enough. All she could do was turn the side of her body at the knife and try to bring the damage to a minimum. Chapter

Jim noticed it almost immediately.

Just as the knife was about to slash Bonnie, he darted at the bodyguard, hurling his feet at his belly.

The bodyguard swung the knife at Jim at the last second.

The tip of the knife sliced past his face, drawing blood and cutting off his mask.

As the sliced mask fell off, Jim's stoic face was revealed to everyone there.

He had shown up on the international papers. So, it didn't take them long to figure out who he was. Their eyes widened in shock and their jaws dropped. 'Jeez! I can't believe he's the world-renowned King of Combat, Jim Ryan!' Shane was still stunned when he scanned Jim from head to toe. Then he looked at Bonnie, who the latter was protecting with his life, and thought back to how the security guard at Bonita Research Institute treated her.

Then, it hit him, and his eyes widened in shock.

"Y-You're... Ms. Boni..." He didn't finish his sentence, but his stammering was more than enough to tell her just how astounded he was.

What he said was enough to tell her one thing. Shane knew who she was now. Stepping forward, she looked at him coldly.

"If you know who I am, what are you waiting for? Call your men back right now. You'll becthe entire m nation's enemy anything happens to me." Salch Th FindNøvel. et website on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality. Shane's face fell. In a matter of seconds, his back was covered with sweat.

'No one could've known that Ivor's fiancé is the world-renowned Ms o.m Bonita! However, I've cso far. It's too late to pull back now. It's not like + can just call the whole thing off anyway.

'I can't just let them leave, so I should m just kill all of them and get rid of Lof them once and for all! Everpeak is once and for such a remote place that no one will know what I did as long as my men and I don't leak the news.' S Then, he turned around and barked coldly at the surrounding bodyguards, "Take them out! I want all of them dead. None of them are leaving this quarry alive!"

Chapter 799

'I didn't count on Shane being this reckless. He knows about Bonnie's true identity, but he's still trying to kill her.' Jim stepped forward and glared at Shane coldly. "I'm going to give you another chance, Shane. Are you going to keep going down this path?" There was blood seeping off the cut on his face. Top that off with his imposing aura, he was sending chills down everyone's spine.

Shane was intimidated by it so much that his throat started getting dry. Even his back was covered in sweat.

'Jim truly lives up to his nof the King of Combat. Just look at the aura emanating from him and his pose. It's blood-chilling.' Noticing that Shane didn't respond to Jim, Bonnie stepped forward and stared at him with cold, imposing eyes.

"Turn yourself in now. I might consider letting you off easy. If you insist on going down this path, however, you're going to regret it very much. You can't handle the consequences, Shane." Ivor followed suit and stepped forward to stand side by side with her. His eyes were also filled with coldness when he glared at Shane.

"I'm warning you, Shane. Stop what you're doing now. Otherwise, I'm going to get my hands on you and you won't like what I'll do to you. Needless to say, I'll also take it easy on you if you own up to your mistake nicely." All three of them were staring at him. Shane's back was frenched in cold sweat. It just so happened that the wind blew past him from the back, sending goosebumps all over him.

'Should I let Bonnie and the others go? Are they really going to forgiveif I do? Will they take it easy on me, like they promised?' Tom realized that Shane was wavering. So, he said hastily, "Don't listen to their crap, Mr. Shane! They're only making things up to get you to let them go. If they get away safely, they're going to send someone else to destroy us." || Archie thought what Tom said made a lot of sense. So, he also chimed in, "That's right, Mr. Shane. Don't believe in them. We've gone too far. They're not going to let us go." Shane listened to both of them and thought back to how ruthless Ivor had been in their long-trivalry. All of a sudden, he also thought the latter wouldn't let him off that easily.

He might've wavered before, but he was becoming more resolute now. 'That's right. I can't afford to let them go. They have to die right here.' He was in the middle of his thoughts when he looked at all three of them coldly.

"I'm not a fool. What makes you think I'll buy what you're selling? Here's the thing, guys. The only way things are going to end for you is that you guys will stay here forever!" Bonnie's eyes were filled with coldness when she heard what he said.

"I have to give it to you, Shane. You've got snerve. You're trying to kill someone who works for the nation! You better hope that you can make us stay here forever.

ve Otherwise, things are not going to end well for you." He scoffed. "Get it through your thick head, Bonnie. There are only three of you here. Meanwhile, there are dozens of us. How do you fancy that you can win this? I can't believe you're thinking about getting out of here. Dream on, Bonnie!" With that, he waved his hand at the surrounding bodyguards again. Chapter

"Take them out now! I said it once, and I'll say it again. Do not let any of them live! Make sure all of them stay allo here forever, and I promise all of you will get a handsreward!"

All the bodyguards heard what he said and instantly becmotivated. They roared before charging at Bonnie and the gang again.

Jim and Ivor saw how their adversaries were advancing on them and formed a perimeter around her again. This time, they kept her in the heart of it as well. She noticed how the bodyguards were coming at them with the intention to kill.

'If this keeps up, then all three of us might be in great danger.'

'No. I have to figure something out. Jim and Ivor need a break.' Bonnie checked her surroundings. Then, something popped into her mind and her eyes sparkled.

'That's it. How could I have forgotten about it? I brought withabout a dozen itching powders from Pyralis just for this occasion. The greatest part is that I'm carrying all of them with me.

'I just have to pour them out, and the bodyguards are going to suffer an unbearable itch.

'It's not like we're out of hot waters immediately, but it would give both of them a chance to take a much-needed break, at least.' At the thought of it, she stuffed her hands into her pocket and shouted at Jim and Ivor. "Out of the way!" They heard her and turned around. Seeing her hands in her pockets, they knew that something's about to happen. They swapped glances and stepped aside in unison.

She pulled out the itching powder and hurled it at the bodyguards.

The bodyguards still didn't know what happened. So, they kept charging at her. Chapter

Shane saw the moment and got a sinking feeling that something was wrong. He shouted at his bodyguards hastily, "No. Stop charging at her! Back off, now. All of you, back off!" However, the bodyguards couldn't stop now.

Then, every last one of them was hit by Bonnie's itching powder.

She watched as red rashes showed up on all of their necks and knew that the powder was working. She couldn't help but sneer.

"Heh... I developed an upgraded version of the itching powder. Enjoy it, guys." With that, she shouted at both Jim and Ivor. "Run!" Both of them followed her and ran without a moment's hesitation.

Shane was stunned by what he saw. Then, he returned to his senses and roared at his bodyguards, "After them! Hurry up. Don't let them get away!" The bodyguards were about to do as they were told, but there was an unbearable itch on their bodies. It was so itchy that they simply couldn't stand it.

They couldn't care about anything other than scratching the itch.

It wasn't an exaggeration to say that they'd just as soon peel their skin off if it meant it'd stop itching. That was especially true for the bodyguards who were nearest to Bonnie. It was so itchy that they were rolling on the ground.

Tom couldn't help but widen his eyes.

He was very taken aback by them sight "She drugged so many people in one go. How on earth did she do it?

W-What a terrifying power she wields. She looked delicate and frail, shelsla tough cookie!" S

Then, something occurred to him. Looking at Shane, he asked, "That reminds me, did you see through her real identity earlier, Mr. Shane? Who in the world is she? I don't get it at all."
