If they were always timid, what future could they have in this life?
In the blink of an eye, the once crowded Golden Top was now empty. Only Candace Nance and her people remained.
At this moment, Candace Nance stood in place, her face a mix of complex emotions. She had seen Chris enter the tomb, but he hadn’t given her a second glance. This feeling of being ignored caused her heartache.
Seeing Candace Nance lost in thought, Yvonne Rainey couldn’t help but approach her and say, “Miss, everyone has gone in, we should go in too…”
The faces of the Nance family’s top fighters were also filled with barely concealed complaints. Everyone’s expressions were gloomy. They felt that they had followed the wrong person this time. Their young lady was completely infatuated and didn’t seem to care about the Dragon Emblem fragment at all! If they couldn’t complete this mission, they would be punished by the family head when they returned.
Candace Nance, however, was not an ordinary person. Upon hearing this, her expression returned to normal. She took a deep breath and said, “Let’s go!”
As her words fell, the Nance family’s top fighters also rushed in.
In an instant, the entire Golden Top was empty, as if no one had ever been there. Only the nearly 2, 000 corpses at the foot of the mountain, along with the ground stained red with blood, served as a reminder of the brutal battle that had taken place here.
*Boom! Boom! Boom!*
At this moment, the tomb’s entrance slowly closed by itself.
*Boom! Boom! Boom!*
*Boom! Boom! Boom!*
…
In the distance, clouds of dust rose as a fleet of dark green Humvees charged forward. Finally, nearly a hundred Humvees stopped at the foot of the Golden Top.
Moments later, fully armed soldiers emerged from the vehicles. These soldiers exuded an aura of ruthlessness. They were the Guards of Death that Chris had secretly stationed around Jefferson Village!
To ensure nothing went wrong, Chris had temporarily brought the Guards of Death here. It was important to note that the Guards of Death were Chris’s most powerful military force. Although they numbered only around 8, 000, they were capable of withstanding the attack of a 100, 000-strong army!
Soon, a man wearing a black military uniform exited an armored Humvee. His face was resolute, and he had four gold stars on his shoulder – he was a four-star general! This man was Phoenix, one of Chris’s four top commanders, who led the 300, 000-strong Phoenix Legion. His reputation in the Amerosia military was legendary, and he was one of Chris’s most capable generals.
If Tiger was Chris’s sharpest blade, capable of beheading enemies within a thousand-strong army and excelling at one-on-one combat, then Phoenix was Chris’s sturdiest shield. Countless times, he had defended cities with only a thousand soldiers, holding off 100, 000-strong armies!
Almost every time Chris went to war, Phoenix would be in charge of coordinating logistics, gathering food and supplies, calming the populace, and recapturing cities.
At that moment, Phoenix glanced at the dense pile of corpses at the foot of the mountain and said coldly, “Someone, clean up all the corpses! Then surround the entire tomb. Kill anyone you don’t know without mercy!”
“Yes!”
With one order, thousands of warriors completely surrounded Golden Top.
Phoenix raised his head, looking at the closed tomb door, his eyes revealing a cold murderous intent.
How dare they covet the Dragon Emblem fragment!
These martial arts figures were destined to walk a path of death!
At that time, within the tomb…
