Chapter 2007


    Dawn had arisen. Bainbridge was half a day''s drive away. Szar didn''t feel exhausted, but his eyes


    were sore after staring at the road for hours. Szar slowly stopped the truck when he saw the car in


    front of him stop. He pulled his cap down and rolled the window down.


    "What''s the matter, mate? Traffic congested?"


    The driver in the car beside Szar answered, "Some kind of car crash ahead. Big time car crash.


    Highway to Bainbridge is under lockdown."


    Sh*t! Szar wasn''t sure if it was their enemy, but he woke Matthew and the crown prince up.

    "What''s wrong, Szar?" The crown prince yawned, still looking groggy.


    Szar briefed them about the situation, and Matthew was alert at once. "If this is a conspiracy, then


    we can''t stay here for long. It''d be pointless. They woulde after us anyway." He stared at the road


    in silence for a while before saying, "Szar, we''re leaving the highway. Take another path."


    Szar nodded and revved the truck up. He followed the traffic and left through the nearest exit. When


    they reached a 3ne street, the gang tensed up.


    "Keep your eyes peeled. Something feels off," Matthew said. The traffic was thinning out, but it


    shouldn''t. The Holy Doctor Competition was drawing near, so the contestants and audience should be


    around.


    Szar slowed down. Half an hour of low-speed driveter, the other shoe finally dropped. In the rear-


    view mirror, they saw dozens of ck off-road vehicles speeding toward them. "They''re here,


    Matthew!" Szar floored the gas pedal.


    Noticing their attempt to escape, the pursuers sped up as well. Even though Szar had stepped down


    on the pedal, the truck could only run at 140 miles per hour, unlike the off-road vehicles which could go


    faster. Less than thirty secondster, the pursuers were already catching up.


    Alright. The gang''s all ready. Szar roared, "Buckle up and hang tight! Time for an emergency brake!"


    The truck skidded to a halt, the tires screeching. It left behind ck trails on the ground, and then the


    truck came to a stop.


    That was bad news for the pursuers. They had been driving at more than 200 miles per hour just to


    catch up to the truck, and now they couldn''t stop in time. To avoid crashing into the truck, the pursuers


    quickly moved to the nk, but that was a disaster for their friends.


    The vehicles crashed into one another, and the cars in the vanguard were tossed into the air and


    flipped around.


    "Good job, Szar!" the crown prince praised and leaped off the truck. He rotated his head and


    cracked his knuckles, his eyes filled with excitement. "Finally. Some action."


    Even though Matthew''spany managed to mellow the crown prince out, he was still Mightwater''s


    noble, and he had a lust for battle. No matter what kind of fight it was, he never backed down. Szar,


    Matthew, and Freya leaped out of the truck as well, looking murderous as they moved slowly toward


    their enemies.


    The sun was shining brightly over their head, fresh air wafting across the roads.


    It was a good time to kill.
