Chapter 2156


    The security guard replied anxiously, "Mr. Dous, I have already done so, but the policemen who were responsible for our protection had encountered an emergency just half an hour ago, and they have left their positions. The police told us that they have already sent backup forces, but due to the traffic jam, it might take half an hour or even more to reach us."


    "What!"


    Dous'' expression quickly fell, anger rising within him.


    "What a coincidence. Bald Eagle Pharma really is something else, huh? Even if I die, I will make sure to fight back!" Dous gritted his teeth, fury written all over his face.


    Just then, frantic breathing followed by wails came from the walkie-talkie.


    The security guard immediately became pale. He looked at Dous and said, "Mr. Dous, the people from Devil Tone are already on their way upstairs. L-Let''s run!"


    Before Dous could answer, Fade stepped forward and said, "Protect Mr. Dous and retreat. I''ll take care of the enemies."


    "But..." The security guard looked at him doubtfully.


    However, Dous cut him off, "Don''t ask any questions. Just follow Mr. Chen''s orders."


    The guard quickly gathered all the staff members and headed away from the elevator, shielding Dous right in the middle.


    Fade was left alone on the eighth floor. He stood before the elevator with his hands in his pockets and a soft smile at the corner of his lips. "Ding!"


    The elevator had reached the eighth floor, and the number on the electronic disy paused. A group of youngsters exited the elevator. When they saw Fade standing before them, they were stunned. A man in braids shouted, "F*ck off!"


    Fade remained unmoved as he stood still.


    "You a*shole, don''t you understand what I said? I said f*ck off!" The man approached Fade and pushed him in the chest.


    Before the man could even touch him, Fade reached out his right hand, and a st of energy hit the man in the chest, causing him to fly into the air.


    In an instant, all the men behind him started tounch an attack. With both shock and anger in their eyes, they red at Fade as they cursed at him, approaching him slowly.


    Fade did not retreat, but instead stated, "Those who don''t want to die should get lost now."


    "You jerk,e on, let''s kill him!"


    They were angered by his words, and they rushed over to him, ready to attack him.


    However, Fade stood rooted to the ground. With a wave of his hand, the group of men had been hit in the chest, and they all fell onto the ground as they wailed in pain.


    The gangsters were all shocked, not knowing what to do.


    However, the man with the braids red at him and reached for his gun. He cocked the gun and aimed it at Fade as he gritted his teeth, "How dare you!"


    He then pulled the trigger.


    Dous and the other staff watched in horror from afar.


    Dous could not hold himself back anymore as he let out a cry and rushed out, "Fade..."


    Just then, Fade reached out his hand and then retracted it. A bulletid on his palm.


    The man with the gun stared at him, dumbfounded.


    Soon, he quickly realized something as he shouted, "He''s a martial artist. Retreat now!"


    After that, he led the group of men away and quickly left in a hurry.


    Fade was slightly surprised as he sneered at them. "So you do know about martial artists. The Devil Tone is really something else!"


    He did not pursue them, but instead


    turned to took at Dous. He handed him an amulet and said, "Dous, take this with you. I will


    head over to the Devil Tone and I''ll be back soon."


    Without waiting for Dous'' response, he disappeared like the sh.


    The other staff members were stunned. They rubbed their eyes in astonishment, feeling like they were in a dream.


    "I-1 s this real? What did I just witness!"


    "Just now, Mr. Chen caught the bullet with his hand. D-Don''t these kinds of things only happen in movies?"


    "Who on earth is he?"


    Everyone turned to Dous in shock and confusion.


    He was also in a state of disbelief as he muttered to himself, "I knew that Fade was powerful, but it looks like I still underestimated him!"


    He sighed, then turned to the rest of the staff members and said, "Listen to Fade and stay here. Do not move."


    "B-But Mr. Chen said that he is going


    to visit the Devil Tone. It''s very dangerous. Should we call the.


    police?" The security guard thought of Fade''sst words and reminded him.


    Dous paused for a moment, shook his head and replied, "No, since Mr. Chen didn''t ask us to call the police, then there''s no need to do so."


    At the same time, Fade followed the group of people through the bustling streets of Newsbery before they reached a rtively deserted district.


    Compared to the city center, there


    were fewer buildings here and the streets were slightly chaotic. Most of the infrastructure had been


    damaged, and the walls wereBelongs to ? n0velDrama.Org.

    There were many young men dressed fashionably who rode motorcycles and skateboards around the town, passing each other packets of powder.


    However, when they noticed the group of men with braids, they immediately retreated to the side, fear evident in their eyes.


    Fade quietly followed them as he took note of his surroundings. "It seems like the Devil Tone is quite


    powerful in this part of


    Newsbery!" He thought to


    himself.


    After passing by several run-down buildings, the group of men entered a three-story brick building.


    Fade followed them in.
