By the time the sound of gunshots within the large base of The Herder Bandit could be heard, the AFSB Squad-9 bodyguards had infiltrated deeply, to the point that they could only desperately fight back to maintain some kind of control.“What is going on here?! Are we seriously being ambushed in our own base?!”“How did this even happen without any of the security system being triggered?! What the actual fuck?!”“Forget that! We need to kill these motherfuckers before …..Hey, wait! Holy shit, I recognize these motherfuckers! It's those campers from days ago! The ones we sent those fools to get taken care of with the mutated beast but failed!”“You mean the Amur Leopards?! Those are the same people we failed to hunt down days ago?! They actually came to us on their own accord! It seems they're really seeking death!”“Are you fucking dumb or what?! Don't you have eyes to look around you?! Can't you see that we're the ones being ambushed! Clearly, they came bursting into our fucking base

Gerald, Richard, Kevin, and the few AFSB Squad-9 bodyguards in here were now being bombarded with bullets. It was loud and hot. Even if one came with defenses that can handle bullets, you would have to possess an abnormal reflex to utilize such defenses. Not to mention that Boss Julio didn't find any sign of a defensive tool against bullets in Gerald and his crew's possession, even if they managed to survive, Julio and his men would have been gone by the time they were done here.Julio laughed out loud with a sinister tone.“You wanna kill me, huh? Why don't you try again after you've been to Hell and somehow managed to make it back to the land of the living! Ha!”He turned to find his stringer thugs staring at the separated section of the room where Gerald and the rest were still being bombarded from all sides with gunshots.He chuckled with a cold tone as he knew that their shocked state was a result of never knowing that their boss had such a secret weapon like this.“You guys ar

Boss Julio felt, for the lack of an accurate term, invaded. He had actually felt something akin to a hand moving in his brain. It was a scary experience, especially once he confirmed that the young man before him was responsible for this.And then, with a punch in a certain part he couldn't describe at all, he felt everything go dark, and it was like he was pulled into an abyss. He could no longer feel his body. He was unconscious. He must be, right?But then how is he aware of his unconsciousness while he was somewhat conscious?This feeling was eerie, but it became traumatizing when he found that he could actually still hear Gerald's conveyed thoughts through telepathy.[I forced your body into a coma. You're definitely conscious, but you're not aware of your surroundings unless I allow it.]Boss Julio felt like he was in Hell truly. There was nothing but darkness, even the ability to feel anything physical through his body had become elusive. He was scared, and he began to scream

Gerald didn't even know when he passed out, but by the time he woke up, he was lying out of the forest and away from Cone Rock River, Iron Falls, and even Red Valley Market.In fact, Gerald found that he was in the rear seat of his luxurious car being driven back to Marvelous Street. It was nighttime so it was much easier to head up to his penthouse without much hassle.That night, he didn't even bother eating anything as he simply took his shower and went to bed. He didn't back anything from either Kevin or Richard. He couldn't handle anything right now.All the young man needed was to lie in his comfortable bed and get some sleep. He felt really empty, and it wasn't just a result of hunger. What he needed the most was to recharge after everything he had gone through on his adventures these past few days.As soon as Gerald's head hit the pillow, he was completely knocked out. But then he found himself in a lucid dream.He was in a dark space filled with stars in galaxies, as far awa

Chauffeur Richard kneeled before Gerald.“Young Master, when you were using that ability, what did you feel?” Gerald chuckled after thinking about it for a moment.“If you think I felt powerful, like some kind of God while brewing that storm, then you're dead wrong, Chauffeur Richard. I didn't feel powerful at all. Instead, I felt anger, loads of it. And I was struggling to find an outlet for it.”He shook his head after taking a spoonful of his soup.“This tastes delicious. Did Manager Bricks make this?”Chauffeur Richard nodded his head.“She did. Actually, she and Chief Protector Brody Jones saw you when we returned last night. But after witnessing your state, they didn't dare bother you. Manager Lyra Bricks had this soup and the entire meal cooked, and she was simply waiting for you to wake up and eat something.”Gerald chuckled warmly, feeling a bit better.“That woman, she's becoming way too kind to me. Who would have thought the unbearable, harassing landlord would turn out t
