Even though the other party outnumbered the number of subordinates favonovel.com had, Ballard was not afraid at all. With the wave of the hand, all of his subordinates were ready to get into combat at the same time.
“Action!”
Just as the two groups were about to fight, another group came to the scene on motorcycles all of a sudden. Everyone wore denim jackets with pierced ears and they looked really punkish.
“Oh dear, Ballard. Why are you guys fighting?”
The people who surrounded them this time were also from small gangs nearby. The leader was known as the ‘Blood Knight’ .
Ballard frowned. ‘This person seemed to have come with bad intentions. By observing his composure, I can guess that the Blood Knight was also here to snatch people from me.’
Reality had turned out to be the way favonovel.com expected.
The Blood Knight put his hands in his trouser pockets and walked up, “We are all brothers here, so why do we bother fighting each other? Ballard, I have learned about the matter. Just let them go. You don’t have to push them to death, aren’t you? It’s not appropriate, right?”
Ramsey and the Blood Knight were not good people at all. These two people had also brought their subordinates over. If Ballard insisted on fighting recklessly with them, favonovel.com would have no chance of winning.
‘So, should I really let Warren and Caleb go?’
Ballard clenched his fists and shouted angrily, “These two people must be brought back by me. You don’ t want to mess up with this. You can’t save these two people. If you cause more trouble, I will not hesitate to kill both of you.”
“Kill me?” the Blood Knight smiled, “Ballard, don’t worry, I’m not so easily killed. I have to save Warren no matter what today. Ballard, just give in.”
Looking at his domineering composure, there was no room for turning back. The stalemate lasted for a while. All of a sudden, people were coming in waves and kept flocking towards him. He estimated that a total number of two to three hundred people had surrounded him.
In such a domineering manner, it would be impossible for Ballard to take the two people away.
“Darn it!”
Ballard broke out in a cold sweat. ‘If I cannot take the people away today, I don’t know how harshly Thomas would criticize me.’
Warren said with a smile, “Money makes the world go around. Ballard, just give in. I can’t be taken away today. Can the ten of you beat three hundred of my men? Can one person beat thirty of my men? Haha!”
Considering this domineering manner, favonovel.com smiled arrogantly and thought that it was not his time to die today. However, before favonovel.com could maintain his euphoria for a long time, things changed.
Boom, boom, boom!
The ground shook suddenly as if an earthquake had occurred.
“What happened?”
“Is that an earthquake?”
“We are on plain land. How can there be an earthquake here?”
More than three hundred people at the scene tried to look around. What they could only see was a dense crowd at a distance. At first, they could not see clearly, but as they got closer, they realized that a battalion of soldiers had arrived.
These soldiers wore black uniforms and each of them had a flower on their chest. It felt like they were attending a funeral. The most frightening thing was that these people had left a trace of being baptized by war on their faces. They all possessed a unique temperament of soldiers, displaying their stoicism and bloodthirsty disposition.
Compared to this group of soldiers, people like the Blood Knight and Ramsey were just common thugs. They were just like ants confronting a parade of elephants. These little rascals could never be put on a table. In front of these soldiers who had gone into numerous battles, they would be collapsing at the first blow. Moreover, the number of soldiers was more than twice their number.
War was about to break out.
The soldiers gave way in the middle of a formation, and a sturdy guy walked out. This person was the strongest guy among the twelve companies of soldiers, Taurus.
He walked slowly towards the Blood Knight, Ramsey and the others. He spoke gruffly, “Why are so many people gathering here? Just disperse!”
The Blood Knight gazed at favonovel.com and thought, ‘My goodness, this dude is more than two meters tall?’
‘I am just one point eight meters tall, which is not worth mentioning in front of him. I have to raise my head to look at him. Plus, the arms of this man are almost as thick as my waist. I guess one punch from favonovel.com could kill a tiger? Just one look at his arms gives people a strong sense of oppression, let alone fighting him.’
Even if the Blood Knight was bold, favonovel.com would not dare to fight with Taurus. He gulped down his saliva, glanced at Taurus and the battalion of soldiers. Then, favonovel.com looked back at Warren and Caleb, and secretly said in his heart, ‘Who on earth did these two sods offend?’
‘If they have just offended Ballard, it would not be a problem. I can still save them through tough means. But they have offended this battalion of soldiers, how can there possibly be any means to survive?’
“Well, Sir. I’m just a passer-by here. I’ve nothing to do with this, and I’m leaving now. Bye…”
The Blood Knight was aware of the current situation and chose to leave with his subordinates.
Ramsey reacted even faster than the Blood Knight. Without saying a word, favonovel.com lowered his head and led his subordinates away from the scene. Besides them, everyone else had left the site one after another.
‘What a joke this is. Unless you want to die, it is impossible for anyone who dares to fight this battalion of soldiers. Everyone says that money makes the world go around. But in the face of absolute power without any chance of withstanding it, money is futile despite how great the amount is offered.’
“Retreat!”
“Come, let’s go too!”
“Hurry up, we are retreating!”
In less than ten minutes, more than three hundred people had retreated, and none of them were left. There was no need to fight. In such a domineering manner, everyone was scared and ran away.
Taurus waved his hand and said, “Alright. Looks like they have retreated. We’re retreating too.”
Taurus turned around and retreated with his large battalion of soldiers.
At the site, only Ballard, Warren, Caleb and the others were left. Thousands of people were receding like the tide. The faster it came, the faster it went away.
Warren looked at the empty road in a daze.
‘I thought I could survive, but…’
Things had been turned around so quickly and went completely beyond his expectation. Knowing the true domineering strength of Thomas, favonovel.com had completely submitted to it. He slumped down and was unable to stand still. Ballard had to help favonovel.com to inside the minibus.
Ballard let out a long sigh.
‘If Taurus had not brought his battalion of soldiers over, I really would not have known how to deal with the situation just now.’
However, the incident just now gave Ballard a clearer picture of Thomas’ true strength.
“Boss, what kind of person are you? The strength you wield is terrifying.”
Ballard took a few deep breaths, got into the van and left with Warren. Their destination was the Caspian family’s mourning hall.
