Chapter 1274
As soon as the trunk door was opened,
Swish!
A sharp blade shot out and slashed at his neck.
Carson was startled, hastily turning around to avoid it.
But it was too late; the blade grazed his cheek. Fortunately, his reaction was swift enough, and the blade did not cut his throat.
"Uh..." Carson subconsciously touched his cheek. His hand was covered in blood.
Before he could react, Miya jumped out of the carriage. Her legs snipped Carson's neck, and he fell to the ground.
Darcy, Jason, and the others were eating. When they heard the sound, they hurriedly went forward to check.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Miya removed the pistol from the back of Carson's waist and fired a few shots at Darcy and the others.
"Ah..." Jason and Dahlia were shot and instantly fell into a pool of blood.
Crack! Darcy and Lucas were shocked. They took out their pistols and fired at Miya.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Miya executed a somersault and took cover behind the carriage, while Darcy and the others could only hide behind another car.
Miya was selected by District 17, so her skills and various attributes were naturally top-notch.
Surprisingly, Darcy, Carson, and the other six people could not subdue her when they attacked together; she even injured three of their own.
"Snap!" Miya chambered a round in the gun, subtracted the bottle behind her, and tossed it into the air.
She had intended to make a distraction to draw Darcy and the others out and take them down with a single shot.
Bang! Bang!
"Uh-oh, the gun is out of bullets."
"There's another bullet in Miya's gun. We must be careful. This woman is very cunning. Don't let your guard down." They were in a deadlock.
"Ah!" Miya screamed as she was electrocuted from the back with a stun gun.
A powerful electric shock instantly rendered her unconscious.
Then, Aria slowly walked out from beside Miya and said to Darcy, "Don't shoot. I'm Aria."
Seeing this, Darcy's heart tightened, and he looked at Aria in surprise. "Miss Bridges, why are you here?"
Aria's expression froze, and she said coldly and solemnly, "Long story short, let's leave this place first."
"Okay, okay."
The few dared not delay, let alone let their guard down. They tied Miya securely with a cowhide rope and had to gag her mouth with a cloth before throwing her back into the trunk. After everyone got into the car, they followed Aria's car, taking numerous turns for nearly an hour.
"This is it. This is where I'm temporarily staying."
The car stopped in front of a secluded and hidden house.
"Bring Mr. Everett down first."
"How's Bruce?"
"Mr. Everett is in a coma."
Aria went inside to check, and Bruce was in a deep sleep. His breathing was stable, and his heart rate was normal.NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
"He's been drugged. He'll be fine when he naturally wakes up."
"Oh, then we can rest easy."
"You guys, hurry up and treat your wounds!"
Carson and Dahlia were the most seriously injured, coming close to meeting their end. "Ah, I didn't expect this woman to be so powerful."
"Don't underestimate women. Some women are much more powerful than men."
"That's true!"
"Miss Bridges, is this place safe?"
"It's safe for now, but we must move to a new destination as soon as possible."
"After Bruce wakes up, we have to leave quickly."
"Okay, got it."
It had been a few months since Aria arrived in South Elmerton. During this period, she also investigated much information about Paradise Island.
However, she had yet to find a way to reach the island successfully. After all, Paradise Island was located in the most perilous region of the Indiona Ocean. The level of danger in this area was comparable to that of the Bermuda Triangle.
Any passing ships or planes would mysteriously crash or disappear.
