Chapter 827 Detonate The Bomb

In the countryside of Coldbridge, two vehicles were speeding on the muddy grounds of a half-constructed road.

A small truck zoomed in front while a green jeep was in close pursuit at the back.

The truck’s steering wheel was heavy, and the shock absorber was of poor quality. Despite that, Natalie held her breath and gripped the wheel firmly.

Her cheeks were pale while sweat dotted her forehead.

She was biting her lip so hard that they were about to bleed.

Clutching his bleeding arm, Benjamin glanced at Natalie, who was driving the truck rapidly. He was filled with anxiety and admiration at the same time.

Meanwhile, Gale was in the jeep at the back, thinking that he could catch up with the run-down truck quickly.

To his surprise, he had not gained any advantage over Natalie yet as the distance between both vehicles had not decreased.

“D*mn it!” cursed Gale through gritted teeth. “Natalie’s too wild! If she’s already this capable as a woman, she would definitely drive me crazy as a man! I refuse to believe that you are so impressive that you can drive your truck faster than my jeep!”

Gradually, the gap between the two vehicles shortened. It was obvious that they were nearing each other.

Gale licked his lips as a bloodthirsty glint flashed across his eyes. He thought that this game of pursuit would end soon. However, he did not realize that Natalie was driving further into the countryside.

Inside the truck, Natalie did not dare to let go even though her hands had turned numb from driving on the bumpy road.

“Can your hands take it?” asked Benjamin worriedly. “Why don’t I take over?”

“Take care of yours first,” replied Natalie, keeping her eyes straight in front. “Don’t bring me more trouble.”

Benjamin could only furrow his brows in silence.

Natalie’s physical and mental strength was weakening. However, she did not have any intentions of giving up.

Samuel! I don’t mind dying on this run-down road, but he mustn’t! If it weren’t for him, I’d be the aging one with a face filled with wrinkles right now.

“Wait for me… Wait for me…”

Natalie could taste blood in her mouth. Mustering all her strength, she slammed her foot on the accelerator and gripped the steering wheel tightly.

She just needed to hold out for a while more. Everything would be fine after she reached another road.

When she spotted a green sign, Natalie took one hand off the steering wheel and whipped out her phone.

As the car was traveling at high speed and her fingers had turned numb, her hand kept trembling. After much difficulty, she opened a mobile application.

Glancing at the jeep through the rearview mirror, she instructed Benjamin, “Shield your head!”

In the next second, Natalie pressed the ‘Enter’ button without any hesitation.

At that moment, a loud boom sounded from the road sign.

The explosion sent shockwaves surging through the air, and flames erupted immediately. The jeep, which had just passed by the sign, flipped in the air and was soon engulfed in flames.

Although their truck was not on fire, it was sent flying away by the impact. It flipped in the air multiple times before crashing on the dividers.

The explosion was so destructive that the underground research base was caught in the impact too. The base trembled before its roof started to collapse.

When Professor Vangleland saw that the machines had stopped operating, he clutched his head and cried, “Argh! My machines! I don’t have any backup! My data is gone! All of the data is gone! I don’t have my experiment results anymore!”

By then, Seamus had already been rescued. But since the base suddenly collapsed, no one cared about his survival anymore. No matter how much he yelled for help, it was futile.

“Save me! Please, save me!”

The state-of-the-art underground research chamber crumbled into pieces within a matter of minutes.
