Chapter 0262
“Boss, he’s here!”
At the entrance guarded by the gatekeeper, Menka escorted Patrick and kicked him inside. He then
walked up to Vulture and sneered. “He was bidding farewell to those Wyverna merchants.”
Pointing at Alexander, he shouted, “I’ve brought the person to you, boy. Now pay up!”
“Alexander?!” Wearing a hood that obscured his vision, Patrick could not see Alexander at all. His
hands were tied behind him, and his voice trembled, “I’m sorry for troubling you, my boy. I should’ve
brought more bodyguards. Amber and Susanne must be worried. I. I didn’t want things to turn out this
way…”
The middle-aged man in his fifties cried a torrent of tears.
“Dad, it’s okay.” The moment Alexander saw Patrick, a huge weight lifted off his heart. Alexander
smoothed Patrick’s back, swiftly checking his physical condition.
He was well.

somewhat hurriedly, but everything else was normal.
“Your father-in-law is fine, now it’s time to pay up.” Sitting on a wooden chair, Vulture-with the seductive
woman still in his arms-smirked at Alexander. “I want to see a hundred fifty million now. Otherwise, you
and
your father-in-law will both lose your heads, chopped off right away!”
Alexander laughed.
No longer cowering in fear, he straightened himself and gazed at Vulture with a cold smile. “Vulture, a
clandestine organization with five hundred members, equipped with weapons from Umbracia. Seems
like
Umbracia invested quite a bit in you!
“How many of the hostages you’ve taken are Wyverna merchants? Besides supplying weapons, what
other
benefits did Umbracia give you?
“Also, the woman in your arms, who is she?”
Vulture’s expression shifted. Simultaneously standing up with the blonde lady in his arms, he glared at
Alexander, Suddenly, he sneered. “I’ve long felt you weren’t honest. So you’re with the Wyverna
military!
“Let me tell you something, Alexander: Catherine represents Umbracia. She’s working with me to drive
Wyverna merchants out of the Southwick market for good!
“Now that you know, what can you do? You and Patrick will both die here today!”
Vulture raised his hand and shouted, “Open fire! Riddle them with bullets!”
Over a dozen ruthless bandits, including three subordinates, raised their firearms simultaneously,
aiming squarely at Alexander and Patrick. Their fingers were about to squeeze the triggers.
“Just a hunch at first, but now…” Alexander sneered and swiftly twisted. He gave a low shout to
Patrick, “Dad,

Huh?
Patrick had already been frightened by their conversation. Upon hearing Alexander’s words, he lunged
toward
the ground like a launched projectile.
In that instant, a massive explosion, like the shattering of rocks, erupted from behind Alexander.
The sound was like the tearing of silk.
The thick hemp rope binding Alexander’s hands, seemingly as fragile as straw, was torn apart by the
tremendous force. A visible burst of powerful airflow erupted from his palms. It was like a shockwave
from an exploding bomb, spreading out in a fan shape, instantly enveloping the entire house.
Apart from the Vulture and the blonde Umbracian girl named ‘Catherine’, the other thugs were violently
struck by this airflow before they could react, as if colliding with a speeding train. All of them were sent
flying.
Blood sprayed from their mouths, mixed with many visceral fragments. They fell to the ground without a
struggle, instantly dead.
“You… You…”
