The Born Winner (Jack and Katherine)

Chapter 838 Danger Just Settled, But It Begins Again

Jack and Mr. Ward looked at him with astounded eyes.

The Mysterious Man couldn’t help feel stunned for a while.

Following that.

He rubbed his chin, and laughed awkwardly.

“But they didn’t repel it with brute force like what I did, but instead Zenith taught them some tricks on

how to do it.”

“What sort of tricks?”

Jack and Mr. Ward asked unanimously.

The Mysterious Man laughed and said, “It’s a sword technique that can somehow change the trajectory

path of bullets. They spent a lot of money on the swords that were used by the three hundred thousand

Dragon Cavalry soldiers, and they were all specially forged. The blades were much broader, and it was

called the ‘Dragon Cavalry Sword’. The cost of forging of each sword was overwhelming, even if it can

be reduced on a mass production scale, the price is definitely not less than one hundred thousand

yuan.”

Gasp! ~

After hearing what the Mysterious Man said.

Even with Jack and Mr. Ward’s disposition, it was still too breathtaking for them.

This was really not a small amount of money.

One sword was no less than one hundred thousand yuan, and the Dragon Cavalry had three hundred

thousand soldiers!

Moreover, anyone knew that in the case of mass production, the cost could be greatly reduced. So the

cost of one hundred thousand yuan for each of the Dragon Cavalry’s ‘Dragon Cavalry Sword’ were the

price after a huge discount!

“However, the Twelve Golden Guard’s method of blocking bullets should be much stronger compared

to normal soldiers.”

The Mysterious Man’s eyes flickered and slowly said, “As for Zenith, last time that guy destroyed a city

singlehandedly with only a horse and a spear. Do you think he hadn’t block a single bullet in the

process?”

Jack’s eye showed how awed he was.

The Mysterious Man’s words were so troubling it made him stunned.

The scene where the Mysterious Man blocked the Barrett sniper rifle’s bullet came to his mind once

again.

The Mysterious Man was able to block the bullet using a half-broken samurai shuriken.

But Zenith was using a round and slender spear! C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

Compared to the Mysterious Man, it was much more difficult to pull it off.

Not to mention.

That time Zenith was destroying the city single-handedly with only one horse and one spear. He had to

face hundreds and thousands of soldiers and bullet rains all by himself.

No matter how Jack racked his brains, he could not imagine how dangerous and critical it was at that

moment.

Zenith might not have blocked all the incoming bullets; however, the number of bullets that he had

blocked was definitely still not a small number.

He took a deep breath.

Inside his heart, Jack felt slightly stirred up, “Maybe… I really should go and visit the Dragon Cavalry

when I have time.”

“You should hold on to that thought for now. If the situation gets worse, you will need to go there by

then.”

The Mysterious Man sighed, “The Dragon Cavalry will be your last resort. They are the ones who can

protect you.”

And at this moment.

“Hubby!”

Amber, who was stunned finally recovered and screamed sadly.

Like a frightened kitten, Amber threw herself to Jack’s arm. She stared at him from head to toe in panic.

“Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

Jack tried to comfort Amber. He raised his hands and gently stroked Amber’s head.

Amber’s expression eased down a little when she was finally sure that Jack was really not injured in

any way.

However, her eyes were still red and flushed with tears.

“So scared, I was so scared…”

Amber suddenly hugged Jack’s waist tightly, buried her head into him and started crying out loud.

Jack could only laugh speechlessly.

The Mysterious Man and Mr. Ward who was standing aside, remained calm and undisturbed.

For what happened just now.

Everyone else was stunned, let alone Amber who was the only normal person here.

When Amber finally calmed down and gradually stopped crying.

Jack said sternly, “Amber, if the situation over here gets worse, I may need to leave you for a while and

seek shelter at the Dragon Cavalry’s army. In terms of protection, this will be the best choice for me, as

well as for all of us.”

“Then I will go with you.”

Amber said hurriedly, and looked at Jack with her teary eyes.

Jack shook his head, “How can I bring you along to a military camp? In the northern territory, it will be

freezing cold all year round, with heavy snow. The climate and habitat there is very harsh. You will

suffer a lot if you follow me.”

“I’m not afraid of hardship. As long as I’m with you, even if it means going to hell, I will still follow you.”

Amber raised her hand to wipe her tears, and spoke firmly.

Jack chuckled, shook his head and said, “You will be safer if you stay here. If anything happens to you,

all my efforts will be meaningless.”

Although he was laughing, Jack’s word was genuine and sincere, making it impossible to refute.

At this moment.

Lone Wolf came back. In a hurry, he ran into the yard.

Along the way, he was sweating profusely and looked terrified.

He saw what happened just now, so even if he did not go inside the yard and check, he knew Jack’s

life was extremely dangerous.

“Mr. Hughes, I’m sorry for my incompetence. I failed to protect you.”

Lone Wolf knelt in front of Jack, and blamed himself.

Jack shook his hand, “This was not your fault. No one is able to guard against a Barrett sniper gunshot

that can be fired from a long distance.”

Mr. Ward asked instead, “Did you get the guy?”

“He ran away!”

Long Wolf said helplessly, “But the shot was fired from a mountain about one kilometers away.”

“One kilometer away? It’s too hard to defend from that kind of distance.”

Jack gave a bitter smile. He already had something in mind when he knew that his opponent had a

Barrett sniper rifle.

However, it was quite challenging and debilitating for this kind of assassination.

One kilometer away.

How could he possibly extend a safe area within a one kilometer radius?

It would be quite impossible for anyone in this world to get that kind of defensive capability with total

destruction power, which could be spread out in an area of one kilometer radius.

Neither the Mysterious Man, Daisy and Brent knew what to do. And just like Jack, they all showed a

helpless expression.

After a few seconds of silence.

Mr. Ward said, “How about this, we increase the number of drones and patrol units. For 24 hours,

cross-check and patrol the area within this one kilometer radius. At least some protection is better than

having no defense at all.

Jack nodded his head, “Lone Wolf, let’s just follow as what Mr. Ward suggested.”

“Yes sir!”

Lone Wolf answered, clasped his fist, stood up and left.

Inside the hall room.

Following Lone Wolf’s departure, Jack and the rest fell into a somber silence.

An assassination from one kilometer away was much harder to guard against compared to close

quarters combat.

Originally, the dangers were only limited to close range. And now, due to the existence of firearms, the

dangers had extended beyond the range of one kilometer radius.

After a long pause.

Jack rubbed his nose and mocked at himself, “It’s fine. It’s just a Barrett sniper rifle. I don’t think the

other forces have the ability to launch a rocket missile at us, right?”

Everyone heard what Jack said.

The Mysterious Man, Mr. Ward, Daisy and Brent laughed together.

Amber let out a smile too.

The originally intense and stressful ambience subsided, and everyone else felt slightly relaxed.

However…

At this moment.

In the bamboo forest outside of Bamboo Grove.

The chilling wind blew through the bamboo trees, rustled through the leaves making them fall to the

ground.

The Bamboo Grove was kept in tranquility and serenity, all because of the bamboo forests surrounding

it.

Think bamboo leaves piled on the ground in the dense bamboo forest.

In a distance, a security patrol team was patrolling.

And on the other edge of the bamboo forest, under the pile of fallen leaves, something very peculiar

was happening.

If there was anyone present, they could probably see it clearly.

The pile of leaves on the ground gently arched itself up, and then silently and slowly moved towards

Bamboo Grove.
