Chapter 2744
?
Moments after the convoy left the area, a loud explosion could be heard in the distance, and all the lights in the surrounding streets went off at the same time.
Nathan and Penny frowned when they nced at the streets that had been plunged into darkness.
"It looks like a major power outage," Pennymented.
Nathan nced at Carlos, who was seated in the passenger seat, and asked, "Ambassador Knight, are power outagesmon here in Eaglnd?" “While Eaglnd may not be as great as Eurasia, power outages aren''t exactlymonce. That is especially the case here in the capital city of Eaglnd. I''ll try calling the relevant authorities and see what''s going on," Carlos said while dialing a number on his phone.
After getting off the phone, he turned toward Nathan and said, "President Cross, I have just confirmed this incident with the authorities. They say the transformers in several streets have exploded at the same time. Repairs are being made at the moment, but they don''t know for sure when it''ll bepleted."
The transformers in several streets exploding at the same time? Isn''t that too much of a coincidence?
Nathan frowned at the thought of that and looked up at the dark streets ahead of him.
Boom!
A sh of lightning was soon apanied by the rumbling of thunder as the rain started pouring down from the sky above.
We''re in the middle of a thunderstorm, and there''s a major power outage... Just great...
With visibility being reduced like crazy, Nathan''s convoy had to slow down as they pushed through the heavy rain.
A few minutester, they stumbled upon a truck blocking the way. The truck had the emergency lights on and seemed to have broken down in the middle of the road.
A few burly men came out of the truck and exchanged nces when they saw Nathan''s convoy show up.
Despite being dressed like the local hooligans, the men were actually elite soldiers from Eaglnd''s military forces. They were known as the "FiveN?velDrama.Org is the owner.
Musketeers."
Morse had ordered for them to intercept Nathan''s convoy and give him a beating.
Owain, the one leading the Five Musketeers, walked up to Nathan''s car and tapped on the window.
Colin rolled the window down and red at the man. "What is it?"
Owain replied in Eaglndian, much to his annoyance.
"I don''t speak your d*mnednguage!" Colin shouted.
An icy-cold glint appeared in Owain''s eyes as he replied, "I said my truck has broken down! My boys and I need a ride back to the city, so lend us your cars if you don''t want to get beaten to a pulp, you d*mned
Eurasian monkeys!"
What? Are we being hijacked right now? I''ve heard about this country having high crime rates, but I never expected to contribute to the statistics like this!
With that in mind, he warned Owain,
"I don''t care who you guys are, but if you''re looking for trouble, then you''ve picked the wrong people to mess with. I suggest you move your truck and scram before I get mad." Owain broke into a grin as he said, "How dare you tell me to scram, you Eurasian monkey? Do you not realize that you''re in my territory now?"
He raised his fist and swung it at Colin after that.
Crash''.
The car window shattered from the impact instantly, but it did nothing to stop Owain''s fist from flying toward Colin''s head.
Colin cocked his head back to dodge the punch and opened the car door at the same time, mming it into Owain and knocking him back several feet.
Colin then quickly got out of the car and stood menacingly in the rain as he stared Owain down.
As Owain''s men gathered around, Ava and the Elite Eight got out of the cars in the back and rushed forward to back Colin up.
Both sides red at each other and prepared to engage inbat.
Meanwhile, Catherine and Morse were seated in the back seat of a Cadic SUV in the distance.
"Yes! The Five Musketeers are about
to fight Nathan''s guys! Will the Five Musketeers from our military prevail, or will Nathan''s guards somehow win this instead? I can''t wait to find out!" Morse eximed excitedly while observing the scene through a pair of binocrs.
