Chapter 968 Ambushed During The Journey
Donald had always believed that encountering highway robbers in vast ins, where thend
stretched far and people were few, was an unlikely scenario.
However, the reality proved him wrong.
The current location of their car was perfectly nestled between two valleys.
Ahead and behind, therey an unobstructed path, nked by steep cliffs on either side. There
existed no feasible option for a detour.
That was probably why the robbers chose this ce to stage the ambush.
Seated in the car, Weston released a sigh andmented, “This isn''t an auspicious beginning. I
hadn''t anticipated us encountering a situation like this even before reaching our destination.”
As Weston spoke, he simultaneously began to take out all the valuable items he had on him,
especially things like ID cards.
ID cards coulde in handy during the shoot. If the documents were to be lost due to a robbery, it
might even dy the shooting schedule.
“What are you up to?” Observing Weston conceal something beneath the seat, Adler asked him
with keen curiosity.
As he searched for a suitable location to stash the cards, Weston answered, “I don''t have an issue
losing a bit of money if it helps avert arger catastrophe, but we absolutely need to secure certain
valuable items. Did you carry any heirlooms with you? It''s best to hide them swiftly as they''ll be
approaching our vehicle soon.”
Weston''s gaze shifted to the window, where four figures mounted on chestnut horses encircled the
car, each holding a shotgun. Their animated chatter suggested they had just secured some
remarkable loot, akin to victorious warriors.
“These people are originally hunters on the ins. It''s just that life there became too tough, so they
resorted to this kind of highway robbery,” Adler sneered. “They can mess with the out-of-towners all
they want, but the moment they cross me, their luck is bound to take a turn for the worse.”
After Adler finished speaking, he took out his hunting rifle and fired a shot outside.
The person riding the horse waspletely unprepared and was directly knocked off his horse by
Adler''s shot.
The other three were also taken aback to find out that someone fired a gunshot from the car. They
quickly ducked down on the horse, trying to figure out where that shot hade from.

Unfortunately, they underestimated the speed at which Adler could change bullets.
Before they could see clearly, the second gunshot rang out again.
The second man clutched his chest and let out a miserable scream, also falling from his horse.
Atst, the remaining two people finally spotted Adler. They promptly raised their guns to retaliate.
The scene somewhat resembled a cowboy shootout.
However, their marksmanship was far inferiorpared to Adler''s.
The two of them fired five shots in session. Apart from one shot that shattered the car window,
the remaining four all hit the car''s metal body.
Adler was simply infallible.
Whenever he fired a shot, it either directly hit a person or a horse.
The exchange of firested less than a minute, and Adler single-handedly took down all four
robbers.
Adler emerged from the car, gripping a shotgun with a confident demeanor. Prior to exiting, he
warned the driver. “Give me two minutes. If you ever think about driving away without me, I won''t
hesitate to pull the trigger.”
Observing Adler''s resolute handling of the firearm moments ago, the driverprehended that
Adler was not someone to be trifled with.
He shivered as he nodded, assuring that he would absolutely not drive away.
Adler walked up to the four individuals, only to find that the first three had already bled to death.
Only thest one was barely clinging to life.
He pressed the shotgun''s barrel against the man''s forehead and inquired, “Chad Sommer''s
regtions explicitly forbid any acts of robbery on this route. To which gang do you belong? How is
it possible that you''re unaware of this rule?”
Aware that time was slipping away, the man clenched his teeth and addressed Adler, “Those who
stand against us, the Ghost g, will meet their doom!”
