The Bodyguard System

It was only after hearing Jaden's question that finally, John came back to his senses. Considering that the fight had just happened close to the car, he was able to make out a few things.

At first, it was that guy who had been launched flying by just a single attack from Jaden. Then in the next moment, there was a scream that came from a distance away.

John obviously did not understand the reason of the scream, but he believed that it was clear that Jaden was involved. As for the method that was used to attack, did John even need to think about it? Jaden was a mutant, and it was clear that it was not impossible for him to be able to attack from a distance, right?

Then in the next moment, just before the scream, John was able to tell that there was a figure that was approaching. He did not notice when it approached, but he only noticed that there was a figure that had suddenly appeared in front of Jaden.

But with just a single attack from Jaden, that figure, who was obviously a lady from the scream, was sent flying just like the guy before, and with that, no more movements were hard.

As difficult as it was for him to believe, John decided to believe that somehow, Jaden had been able to take care of all the three people, destroying them at the same time. Even if they were currently not dead, they were clearly fatally wounded. Find your next adventure on empire

And upon hearing Jaden's question, John finally remembered the reason why they were here. All this while, hid mind had been preoccupied by the thoughts of mutants and the fight going on outside there.

But now, he suddenly remembered that they were here because the person that they were supposed to look out for had been kidnapped. Well, they did not really need to take care of this guy personally, so that he could not be killed, but they needed to take care of the mercenaries before they took action.

But they had obviously failed. So, the only thing that John could hope at the moment was that that business person had not been killed. The phantom was still in front of them, and until now, the doors were still closed.

John got out of the car, and it was also at this moment that he suddenly noticed that there was another car that was approaching from a distance. The lights from the car illuminated the surroundings, but he could not see anything other than the bushes and trees.

Well, the vegetation around them had been destroyed by the fight between Jaden and the other three. In a distance, John could see that several trees had somehow fallen onto the ground.

It was at this moment that he suddenly understood the reason why there was a scream from a distance. It was from those trees. Could it be that those trees had actually fallen on top of someone?

John could not help but feel a chill running down his spine as he thought of that. Just looking at the size of the trees, he believed that if any of them fell on him, he would not be able to stand up, and might even die, not to mention all those trees that seemed to be forming a small hill at the moment.

John swallowed, before looking towards the direction of the phantom. Then, with his gun and a torch in hand, he began approaching the phantom.

Currently, Jaden was using his sense of hearing to pay attention to his surrounding areas. This was just in case those guys were going to attack. At the moment, it was better for them to try and see if the business person had not been killed.

If that guy had been killed by now, then that guy was quite unlucky. At the same time, since John was approaching the phantom that Jaden believed that there might be a mercenary or mercenaries inside, he had to move with him, to ensure his safety.

At the end of it all, he was a bodyguard at the moment, and could not ignore the safety of John. And when he thought about the optional missions that came about when he was to help Scarlet, he thought that if he could actually find that guy alive, and rescue him, perhaps he might end up receiving more rewards from the system.

The moment that the two of them arrived next to the phantom, the door of the phantom suddenly swung open. Currently, John was extremely tense, and so, he pointed his gun towards the open door, ready to open fire.

But due to his experience, he did not immediately open fire after the door had been opened. Instead, he waited, to see who was going to come out of the car.

In the next moment, an obese figure suddenly staggered out of the car. The man was so frightened, and under John's torch illumination, Jaden and John could clearly see the beads of sweat that had already formed on his face.

The guy was currently trembling, with his hands raised in the air. His eyes were filled with fear, as he began approaching the two of them.

John did not simply focus on the obese guy. Instead, he continued looking at the car, waiting to see if there was going to be another person that was going to come out of the car.

After all, it was not as if the obese guy was the only one that was within the car when it was suddenly driven away. There were other two people, a lady and a small boy.

Just as he was waiting, two more figures came out of the car. They were the lady and the small kid. They were the wife and son to this obese guy.

John was relieved when he saw that all of them were not injured at all. But even then, he still continued focusing on looking at the car. This car was being driven by someone, and the driver had not yet gotten out of the car.

Vroom!

Suddenly, the engine of the car began making a sound. It was clear that someone was stepping on the accelerator of the car.

Then in the next moment, the car suddenly made a turn, as it began rushing away. It was clear that the mercenary was trying to run after this incident.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

John immediately opened the fire, as he began raining bullets towards the car. But even then, the car did not slow down, rushing through the thick vegetation, obviously heading towards the opposite direction, trying to head back towards the road.

But at this moment, several cars had already arrived. Other than the car that had arrived first, others had also followed behind, and they were blocking the way for the phantom.

But this car did not show any intention of stopping at all. It was clear that the mercenary inside the car did not want to remain here. This guy might have seen what had happened here, or understood what was going on here.

Jaden believed that this was a premeditated ambush. That indicated that this guy was involved with the three mutants that he had just dealt with.

Thinking of that, Jaden immediately activated his telekinesis ability. He could have just rushed towards the car, and with his speed, he would have caught up. And, with just a single attack from him, he would have easily made the car roll over.

But currently, other than John, there were other three people around. Jaden didn't want many people to know about him being a mutant. And so, he decided to use his telekinesis ability.

The car that was just about to crash into another that was approaching from the opposite direction suddenly made a turn. It was as if the car was trying to avoid the head-on collision with the other car, but it ended up running into a big tree.

Bang!

The sound of the collision of the car with the tree could be heard clearly. In the next moment, the tree shook violently, but it did not collapse. As for the car, the bonnet of the car was completely destroyed at the moment.

John was surprised. In his mind, he wondered if that mercenary had seen that there was no way out, and decided to kill himself by running into a tree inside the car?

But suddenly, he looked towards Jaden who was standing next to him. Maybe this was Jaden's action? After all, looking at those trees that had been uprooted, it was clear that Jaden was the one who had done that.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

If he could uproot trees, what was the reason for him not to be capable of making the car to change the direction that it was going to? That was extremely possible.

"Don't worry, we are safe now." John was suddenly brought back to his senses by the words of the lady, that were obviously directed towards the boy who was just about 7 years old.

John ended up sighing as he looked at the three. After a while, he said, "Don't worry. The situation is currently under control. We are going to get you back to the city soon. Is anyone of you injured?"

"Thank you, officer! I almost thought that we were dead. But that guy brought us here, and using a gun, he prevented us from getting out of the car. Then, after several loud explosions, he told us to get out of the car, before he began driving the car away." The obese man explained.
