Chapter 48 Critical Point

zizi...

The voice on the intercom disappeared.

Looking at the walkie-talkie in his hand, General Ryan took off his hat anxiously and rubbed his sweaty scalp fiercely.

"What rocket, what fire arrow, what rocket?
Did he think I was the one who threw that missile?!"

At this point, General Ryan's veins popped out and he threw the walkie-talkie in his hand away!

“Damn it, I was even suspecting that he had sent people to massacre my subordinates and even kidnapped my daughter, but he turned around and smeared shit on my head!
He's already been bombarded by an air-to-ground attack once, why won't he just die!!!"

After he finished speaking, General Ryan raised his head in pain.

At the side, his adjutant coughed lightly and spoke to him.

“General, theoretically, the person who kidnapped your daughter should be an unknown third party.

Moreover, according to our investigation of Donton, he is also unable to form a team that can mobilize air-to-ground and massacre our special elites in a blink of an eye.

so……"

"I know I know!"

Before the adjutant could finish, General Ryan interrupted him in frustration.

"I know it wasn't him, and I also know it was directed at me. At times like this, you don't have to be my mouthpiece anymore.

For a mere person like Donton, it is not worth it for any organization to use such means on his behalf when his information has not yet been widely disseminated.

And I, after all, am a general!
I suspect this is a problem within America, it must be some of my political enemies, maybe that CIA rubbish. "

At this point, General Ryan's eyes lit up, and he continued speaking speculatively.

“That’s right, even if it’s not CIA, it should be one of my other old rivals!
Whether it's destroying my plan to capture Downton, causing my failure to lower my national defense rank, or kidnapping my daughter.

Their actions may even undermine the cooperation between the military and LexCorp.

It seems that in addition to my opponents, this group of mysterious people today may also be enemies of Lex Group. Maybe they are here to snatch orders from Lex Group!"

The more General Ryan spoke, the more confident he became, and his thoughts became clearer. He clenched his right fist and slapped the palm of his left hand hard.

Snapped!
After a crisp sound, General Ryan finally said.

"That's right, so it won't be long before they contact me to discuss the terms of exchanging my daughter.

If nothing unexpected happens, the experimental equipment of the Lex Group that I accepted will be their target!
But they don't know that those equipments are of no use to me. If we don't purchase them, those equipments can only be experimental ones. And Lex Group's equipments also have very sophisticated anti-analysis systems!

So, now I just need to wait for the call, and by the way... deal with that damn Donton!"

General Ryan immediately took the new walkie-talkie from his adjutant and yelled to all the action teams in Smallwell.

"Everyone listen up, kill Donton with all your strength. Once he is killed, he will be forced to teleport away. Don't let him become a problem for us.

He is no longer worthy of being our target!"

"Ouch, what the fuck?"

As soon as General Ryan finished speaking, Downton's frivolous voice suddenly came from the intercom.

Donton was seen pointing the muzzle of his rifle at the soldier at his feet while cursing into the walkie-talkie.

"Are you f*cking looking down on me?"

On the other side of the intercom, General Ryan's face turned green as he listened to what Donton said.

"Everyone, switch to communication number six!" After the words fell, General Ryan threw away the intercom with a wry smile, and then took the in-ear headphones from the adjutant.

At the same time, after making sure that no sound would come from the walkie-talkie, Donton pointed the gun at the soldier under his feet.

Chu Chu Chu!
After sending the two soldiers on their way, he rummaged through the two soldiers for a while, took off the soldiers' tactical vests and put them on himself, then took out a total of seven magazines and stuffed them into the vests.

Then, Donton held up his Harley with one hand and the gun.

boom!
Along with the roar of the Harley engine, Downton grinned excitedly.

Although we don’t know exactly where the general is, Louise, the reporter, is definitely still in the cafe.

He knew Louise. That foolish and bold woman would never easily leave the place she had agreed to meet with him.

Even if she was bombarded, or Smallwell turned into a battlefield, that woman would surely only be thinking about the big news!
If she hadn't been so foolish and bold, she, the future Superman wife, wouldn't have been trapped in Schrödinger's kidnapping situation every day.

So Downton immediately drove towards the cafe.

However, the soldier who died not long ago had reported Downton's location, which resulted in Downton being blocked by three soldiers coming towards him just after he had ridden across a street!

Although not all the people General Ryan brought with him were special forces, those currently blocking Downton Road were indeed members of the Navy SEALs.

After confirming Downton's identity from a distance, two of them immediately rushed into the shelter on the street and began to blockade and shoot at Downton.

At the same time, the third soldier raised his RPG at Donton.

Facing the bullets, Donton held the gun with one hand and fought back, using up the entire magazine of bullets.

Unfortunately, not only did the volley of bullets fail to hit the enemy, but the increasingly close distance also shot Donton.

boom!
Tang Dun felt a tightness in his chest, and he flew off the motorcycle.

After rolling on the ground twice, Donton stood up with a frown and raised his hand to press his chest.

"Damn it, it's so accurate, it hits the heart directly, it must be a coincidence, right?"

As he spoke, Donton tore open his sweatshirt, exposing the wound completely.

The bullet did hit his heart, but the pain told him that even though his left chest was torn apart, there was nothing wrong with his heart. Instead, his ribs might have been broken!

After pressing his wound gently, Donton groaned and suddenly laughed.

"My physical condition has improved very quickly. It seems to be close to a qualitative change."

After laughing and muttering to himself, Donton rushed towards the soldiers with his gun in hand.

Looking at the charging Donton, the soldier holding the RPG frowned, then fired the rocket after thinking deeply.

Whoosh!
Amid the explosion, Donton once again turned into fire and disappeared.

At the same time, three soldiers in the distance also reported the news of killing Donton on the communication channel.

only……

After they reported, the three of them couldn't help but look at each other, and then they saw confusion in each other's eyes.

"Did you notice that guy's speed?"

"You noticed it too!"

"Yeah, that guy... is incredibly fast, feels like a cheetah!"

"Yes, he was really fast, and I should have hit his heart. His left chest looked like it was about to explode!"
