NovelEnglishThey had just popped out of the cave when they heard sudden gunshots echoing in the darkness.
“They're here. Move! Quickly!” Roy hissed urgently. Everyone immediately headed south. Zacharias reached out to take Shirley's
hand and intended to lead her away. Alas, she took her bodyguarding job seriously as she covered his six. “Don’t worry about me. |
can handle this.” “Miss Lloyd, just go! If you don’t go, how can Mr. Flintstone leave?” Freddie pointed out, knowing just what
Zacharias was thinking.
“He's right,” Zacharias spoke up immediately. Shirley could only turn to Nixon, “Mr. Nixon, you and the others cover our rear. I'll
lead him to our rendezvous point.” “Go ahead, Miss Lloyd. We'll take care of these people, Nixon said. She swiftly led Zacharias
toward the east under the cover of night. The trees and rocky paths alongside the sandy beach made for a challenging route.
Alas, Shirley stepped on a rock in her hurry and slipped. Fortunately, Zacharias managed to reach out and grab her waist before
she could fall. “Be careful.” She nodded and also held onto him. “Let's move quickly.” The gunfire from behind was getting closer.
Judging from the gunshots, they were being boxed in. Since they only had a few men protecting them, Shirley and Zacharias had
no choice but to make a break toward the east. Even though they would end up looking like utter barbarians, they couldn't afford
to waste even a single second.
They finally spotted the three helicopters at their rendezvous point under the moonlight. These helicopters were situated in a
rather secluded area. So, they hadn't been discovered by the enemy forces yet. Moreover, the enemies couldn't monitor
everything happening on the island as they had jammed all signals within the island.
“The helicopters are here. Get on board,” Shirley said to the man behind her.
“Let's go together.” Zacharias reached for her hand and was determined not to leave her behind.
However, she had someone else she couldn’t leave behind-Richard. She took Zacharias’ hand. “All right. Let's go.” Then, she and

Zacharias’ wrist before securing the other end to the frof the seat.
“Shirley, what are you doing?” Zacharias panicked as he saw her actions.
Shirley swiftly delivered a punch to his neck, causing his eyes to widen in shock before he slumped against his seat, succumbing to
unconsciousness.
Everyone else felt a sting in their necks just witnessing her swift and brutal action.
“What are you waiting for? Get him out of here!” Shirley urged as she exited the helicopter while handing the key to the handcuffs
to Freddie. “Free him once you're safe.” “What about you, Miss Lloyd?” “My father is still here. | can’t leave him. Hurry! Go!” Shirley
turned and swiftly dashed into the darkness.
At that moment, everyone understood one thing -Zacharias’ life was the priority, and they had to ensure his safety at all costs.
The helicopter rose into the night sky before disappearing quickly.
Shirley stood by the shoreline and watched as the helicopter vanished into the distance. She heaved a sigh of relief as she prayed
for his safety above all else.
Suddenly, two mercenaries emerged from the woods, and each of them was carrying a rocket launcher on their shoulders. They
were ready to launch an attack on Zacharias’ helicopter.
Shirley's pupils contracted sharply as she drew her gun and fired two precise bullets, hitting the targets’ in a textbook headshot.
She lay low in the grass and was prepared to intercept anyone attempting to pursue Zacharias.
At that moment, Richard, who had been undercover among the group, had already dealt with six individuals. As he took down the
seventh, he was spotted by a mercenary who had mistakenly stumbled upon him while he was doing the deed. The mercenary
exclaimed in terror, “There's a traitor! Everyone, be on alert! There's a traitor!” Then, he dashed away in panic. Richard swiftly
drew his dagger before heading in a particular direction-the direction leading to the office of the highest authority.
Inside, an intense discussion was underway. Just moments ago, they received the news of Zacharias’ escape via helicopter. Four
men of substantial power were debating the next course of action.
“Who could have breached this place and saved Zacharias? Why haven't they dealt with him yet?”
