Chapter 1006


    The other three, respectively, were hit by bullets in the left shin, the right upper arm, and the left


    upper arm.


    Likewise, their wounds kept bleeding.


    X Quest instantly used hemostatic items to stop the bleeding for all three of them.


    ***


    On the deck, the gun battle continued.


    Despite the hail of bullets around him, Stanley Batton stood still, calm as ever.

    Immediately after that, six more men dressed in ck were shot in the heart mid-air.


    The bright red liquid poured from the air onto the deck in steady streams. At one nce, it seemed


    extremely unsightly.


    Meanwhile, the golden-masked man in the sky calmly pulled the helicopter lift lever and raised the


    helicopter’s altitude…


    As the helicopter flew higher and higher, the men dressed in ck, dead or injured, went further and


    further away from the deck.


    Gradually, they were out of the range of the sniping rifles.


    Seeing that those people were taking off higher and higher, Stanely immediately put his rifle away


    until they finally disappeared. After that, he looked coldly at the bodyguards around him as well as


    Zack Cassidy. “How’s it going? Are you all fine?”


    From putting away the rifle to turning around, the whole process only took him three seconds.


    The crisp and clean movement made Stanley appear extremely cool!


    After that, the group of bodyguards then quickly put away their rifles before returning to Stanley.


    “We’re fine!” they said in unison as they nodded respectfully.


    Stanley didn’t say anything else. He casually tossed his rifle over to Zack and gave another order.


    “Contact the rescue team right away… Arrange for the cruise ship to return. Apart from that… I want


    to know who those people were before dawn.”


    With that, Stanley walked toward the stairway with a murderous aura that had not faded.


    Soon, the rescue ne arrived.


    The injured were taken directly to the municipal hospital for treatment, with Sharon Lindt and Wilson


    Batton apanying them throughout the process.


    X, on the other hand, stayed on the cruise ship to clean up the mess with Stanley and Josh.


    ***


    Due to the fierce shootout, Dragon Group’s 70th-anniversary celebration came to an abrupt end.


    On the other hand, the luxury cruise ship was steered back to the shore via the original route.


    After reaching the shore, guests were dismissed on the spot.


    Finally, only X, Stanley, Josh Batton, Tyler Terrell, Daisy Cox, Zack, and ten bodyguards


    remained on the shore.


    After such a huge incident, several of them were in a state of shock.


    The beach was very windy, and the temperature had dropped a lot.


    A cold wind blew over, and X immediately shivered.


    When Josh saw that happening, he subconsciously wanted to take off his jacket.


    At that moment, Stanley quickly took off his jacket and directly draped it over X’s shoulders.


    From the beginning, apart from Daisy, no one else noticed how Josh wanted to unbutton his jacket.


    Daisy looked hard at Josh, but she didn’t say a word.


    “It’s gettingte. I’ll take Daisy home, too. We’ll get together again tomorrow.” Tyler looked at X


    and the Batton family as he spoke.


    “Alright. Get home safely,” Stanley said.


    X didn’t say anything. She directly grabbed Daisy’s hand to show her gratitude. “Daisy, thank you


    so much for risking everything to protect me earlier.”


    Whenever X recalled how Daisy didn’t hesitate to ce her body over X’s even in the face of


    death, X felt a sense of warmth in her heart.
