Chapter 1209

The crowd only came back to their senses after Scarred Face hung up the call.

No one expected the son-in-law of the Hinton family to be so good at fighting.

Even Scarred Face and the rest, who had beaten up numerous people in the past, lost to him so easily.

However, so what if he could fight?

Could he defeat the Inspection Brigade?

The Inspection Brigade was the most violent force in the nation.

No matter how powerful an individual may be, he could never compare to the nation’s forces.

A team rushed over quickly.

The Inspection Brigade operated very formally.

Every officer wore uniforms and were equipped with weapons. They looked extremely intimidating.

Wilfred Bradley, who was leading the team, exuded an even more intimidating and hostile aura.

The Inspection Brigade had more authority than the police.

Intimidated, the crowd started to back away from the Inspection Brigade.

When Wilfred scanned the venue, everyone went completely silent. It was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

Even the surroundings felt cold.

He asked, “Who’s the trouble-maker?”

Scarred Face rushed towards him and pointed towards Zeke. “Wilfred, he’s the one!”

Wilfred glanced at Zeke and a disdainful expression appeared on his face. “Lock him up.”

The members of the Inspection Brigade immediately surrounded Zeke.

Zeke scoffed coldly, “Captain Bradley, you sure have some authority there. As far as I know, the Inspection Brigade is responsible for capturing spies and smugglers. You have no say over civil security.”

Wilfred said, “Are you unwilling to relent? Fine. I now suspect that you’re a spy. Please cooperate with our investigation.”

Zeke said, “Don’t spout nonsense if you have no evidence. Otherwise, I’ll sue you for deliberate accusation.”

“Sue me?” Wilfred laughed mockingly. “I’m the leader of this territory. How can you sue me?”

Zeke raised his head and gazed at the sky. “Really? I’m afraid that there’s a bigger world outside this place, where there’s someone more powerful than you.”

“What are you looking at, dumbass?” Wilfred was getting impatient and instructed the others, “Restrain him now. If he dares to resist, kill him.”

Zeke said, “Did you ask me what I’m looking at? I’m looking at the larger world outside!”

The larger world outside?

What larger world?

Everyone raised their heads and turned to where Zeke was looking.

A few black dots in the sky were approaching them.

Alongside a faint booming sound, the black dots were approaching them quickly.

Soon, the “black dots” stopped mid-air and hung over everyone’s heads.

They were four military helicopters!

The whirring of their blades were deafening, sounding like a rolling thunder.

Then, the doors of the helicopter opened and a ladder was lowered.

A dozen heavily armed soldiers clambered down the ladder.

Simultaneously, everyone could feel the ground shaking.

A small commotion erupted in the crowd.

What’s going on?

Is there an earthquake?

But Atheville is not in the earthquake zone. There hasn’t been any earthquake for more than a century!

Suddenly, someone yelled in shock, “Look! What’s that?”

Everyone started to glance around.

When they saw it, they were utterly astounded.

All around them, there were countless of tanks and armored vehicles heading in their direction.

The roads could not accommodate heavy weights.

Hence, the tank’s tracks created deep imprints on the ground.

The black canons and the weapons lining the armored vehicles sent chills down one’s spine.

This was no ordinary platoon—it was an artillery platoon!

However, it was a peaceful era now.

Why did these combat troops suddenly appear?

Terrified, the crowd started to run away and seek refuge.

If the Inspection Brigade were compared to a bunch of feisty trouble-makers, this artillery platoon would be Hades himself!

When the armored vehicles and tanks stopped, numerous soldiers rushed down the vehicles and surrounded everyone.
