Chapter 100: Army Surrounds

When Henry saw Laura, his entire body froze. With all his strength, he finally managed to rush over and tightly embrace her.

"Laura, I'm sorry I'm late!"

Blood continued to flow from Laura's forehead, her lips pale and trembling uncontrollably. "Henry, quickly contact my father and ask him to come and save us!"

She didn't know how Henry broke through the blockade and entered the cave, but she knew that even if he could get in, there was no way he could get out with the entire force Elijah brought, a whole army.

If she had already been violated, Giulio might not react much, but they hadn't reached that point yet. Laura didn't believe her father wouldn't come to save her.

Only if her father personally arrived could he possibly deter Elijah.

"Don't worry, Laura, everything is fine now."

Henry looked at Laura's wound, his eyes turning red, hating himself for being careless and not protecting Laura.

But as he said this, this place was no longer just Elijah's platoon.

Outside the cave, nearly a hundred armed helicopters hovered in the sky, their heavy machine guns aimed at the ground.

Not far away, all sorts of tanks, densely packed together, almost one after another, surrounded the entire hilltop, their gun barrels raised high, aiming.

From the foot of the mountain to halfway up the mountain, there was a crowd of troops, wearing two completely different uniforms, clearly distinct, yet seamlessly encircling the area.

Everything happened too fast.

As soon as Elijah's subordinates saw the first plane appear, the first tank driving into view, they knew there was no way they could resist the opposing forces.

Moreover, he recognized the insignias of the two legions.

So, he immediately ordered his subordinates to put down their guns.

When Henry rushed over, the subordinates, not recognizing this person, wanted to stop and inquire, but Henry was too fast. They didn't stop him at all, and when they tried to chase after him, two people had already blocked him from both sides.

Stefano and Antonio appeared.

"So, you're Henry?"

Upon hearing the name, Elijah felt relieved. "Impressive skills you have; I heard you just finished your service as a former special reconnaissance operative, managing to deceive my subordinates and infiltrate. Well, now that you're here, don't even think you're walking away!"

In pursuit of Laura, he had done his homework, of course. Laura's best friend Sophia, and Henry, who seemed to have reconciled with her, he knew about them.

However, he never took Henry seriously. A discharged soldier expelled by a second-rate family, what could he amount to?

Even if Laura liked him, what good would it do? As long as Giulio and Anna didn't approve, he could only get lost.

Elijah never expected that Henry not only dared to appear in front of him, but also that he would dare to kill his subordinates.

"Everyone, come in. Capture this bastard for me!"

Elijah shouted loudly towards the entrance of the cave, but there was no response at all.

His heart sank as he realized that even if Henry had some skills, when he had secretly snuck in and shot his subordinates, he had already exposed himself.

Why was no one coming in to check?

At this moment, there was suddenly a faint, miserable scream from outside the cave. The intensity of that sound was as if its owner was in the depths of hell.

Even worse, Elijah could tell that it was the voice of his own subordinates!

"Henry, you better not mess around."

After feeling that something was wrong, Elijah's face quickly changed, and he politely said, "You may not recognize me, but I'm Elijah. My father is Harold, and he rules over the entire area of Freton City. No matter how skilled you are, if you lay a hand on me, you won't be able to walk out of Freton City."

Henry slowly raised his head, stared at Elijah, and whispered to Laura, "Laura, I checked. Your injury is fine. We'll bandage it later. Sit tight and wait for me."

Helping Laura up, he sat her on a stone. Laura suddenly grabbed his arm and pleaded, "Henry, don't act impulsively. You said I'm fine, so let's just forget about it. Let my father handle this, and you don't need to interfere."

Henry shook his head and released Laura's hand. "Laura, trust me."

He stood up and walked towards Elijah. With each step he took, the cave seemed to grow darker, as if a forbidden beast was slowly awakening.

Elijah certainly didn't want to sit and wait for death. He could tell that Henry had more in store for him than just a beating. His gaze was as if he wanted to devour him alive.

Under immense pressure, Elijah's body felt sluggish, but he still angrily shouted and threw a punch.

Coming from a military family, he had been trained and supervised by Harold since he was young. With his skills, he could hold his ground against regular soldiers, even elite special forces.

However, the situation was far more serious than he had imagined. Henry didn't even flinch as Elijah delivered a punch.

In an instant, Henry grabbed hold of Elijah's arm, breaking the bones in his arms and legs. Amidst Elijah's agonized screams, Henry lifted his body and slammed it against the wall.

"No!" Elijah cried out in terror, but his face was already smashed against the sharp edges of the stone wall, causing his skin to be pierced and his face to be cut.

He tried to struggle, but with his limbs broken, all he could do was wriggle frantically. Nevertheless, no matter how much he wriggled, Henry firmly held onto him, repeatedly slamming him against the wall.

In an instant, the entire cave was filled with Elijah's screams of agony.

Furrowing his brows, Henry noticed the fear in Laura's eyes.

"I can't scare Laura." he muttered.

Grabbing Elijah, whose face was now covered in blood and flesh, Henry threw him out of the cave.

Henry didn't want to kill Elijah yet; he wanted to slowly torture him to death.

And this was only the beginning!

"Laura, medical personnel will arrive soon. Just wait here." Henry reassured Laura before he walked out of the cave.

Elijah, being from a military family, had a strong physical constitution. Despite the previous impact, he didn't lose consciousness. He managed to open his swollen eyes slightly and observe his surroundings.

His bloodshot eyes cast a faint red hue over everything.

The soldiers around him felt both familiar and unfamiliar. After recognizing a few of them, his heart filled with joy.

A small portion of them, wearing Tiger Gang uniforms, were soldiers of that faction. But the majority of soldiers wore the uniforms he had grown up seeing.

The First Army of Freton City.

Airplanes, tanks, and numerous troops... he knew that with this much movement, Harold would definitely come!
