Meanwhile, inside Air Force One, Simon's phone rang. "Yes?" Simon picked up the call immediately. "General, we've confirmed that Master Williams's wife and daughter were taken by the Hamilton family in Wesover City. Master Williams's wife is not in immediate danger, but his daughter, Abigail..." "What about his daughter?" Simon asked urgently. The other end of the line went silent for half a second before speaking through gritted teeth, "Jason Hamilton's son, Toby, has a congenital heart defect. So, the Hamilton family plans to drain Abigail's blood and harvest her heart for a transplant." What?! Even Simon, a five-star general who had experienced the horrors of the battlefield, trembled at those words. Live dissection? Blood draining? Heart harvesting? They were doing all this to Master Williams's daughter?! The Hamilton family was beyond vile! Simon roared, "Notify all of Master Williams's disciples to head to Hamilton Manor in Wesover City immediately! Use any means necessary to save his family and avenge Master Williams!" *** In the U.S. Operational Command Center, a terrified officer burst into the room. "Reporting to the Secretary of Defense, General Powell's private jet, Air Force One, appears to have been hijacked and is entering our northern airspace at Mach 3! We also received reports from the Southern Command that chaos has erupted at the Mexican border! Numerous mercenaries are trying to break through!" "Sir!" Before the officer could finish, another officer rushed in. "Tens of thousands of SPECTRE operatives have secretly infiltrated our country. We're not sure about their intentions!" "Sir!" Before the Secretary of Defense could process the previous information, dozens of officers rushed in one after another, each bringing shocking news. "What on earth is going on?" The the Secretary of Defense eyes dilated, realizing the situation was truly dire. He immediately gave out a few orders, "Report this to the President! The nation is now on high alert! Do whatever it takes to contact Simon! We must get to the bottom of this within an hour!" *** Back in the Air Force One cabin, Nathan's eyes were bloodshot, his voice like that of a demon from hell. "How much longer?! How much longer until we reach Wesover City?!" "Master Williams, we have arrived in Wesover City. We are currently directly above Hamilton Manor." 'Have we already reached Hamilton Manor?' Nathan's body stiffened as he glanced out the window, realizing the plane was descending and was only a few hundred feet from the ground. He could make out parts of the buildings below. "Master Williams, we will land safely in a minute," Simon began, but Nathan had already pulled open the cabin door. "Master Williams, we are several hundred feet high..." Simon's words trailed off as he witnessed a sight he would never forget. The moment the door opened, Nathan stepped out, plummeting to the manor like a missile. Boom!!! A deafening crash followed by a cloud of dust erupted at Hamilton Manor. Countless stone slabs were shattered, and the Hamilton Manor at the forefront trembled violently from the impact, its glass shattering and walls cracking. "What was that?" "Was that an earthquake?" "Look... There's someone ahead!" The servants in the manor looked towards the source of the noise, seeing a man emanating a murderous aura amidst the dust. The man stood in a crater, the ground beneath his feet cracked like a spiderweb, spreading out dozens of feet. "Is that a person or a monster?" Someone muttered in terror. In the next moment, Nathan moved. Boom! Another loud crash sounded. Before the servants could react, they saw Nathan storming into the villa. With a wave of his hand, several bodyguards exploded, leaving behind nothing but a bloody mist. Nathan's gaze locked onto the remaining three bodyguards, his voice dripping with fury, "Where are my wife and daughter?" *** In the operating room, located in the basement of the Hamilton Manor, Jason was assaulting Andrea, tearing her clothes to shreds. Within moments, Andrea was in nothing but her underwear. "Jason, you jerk! You said you would spare my daughter! You promised you would let her go!" Andrea fought back desperately. On the cold operating table, Abbie's chest was covered in blood; she was just one more cut away from having her heart removed. "Abbie... Mommy's here!" Andrea, using the last of her strength, bit down hard on Jason's arm. "Ah... you b**ch!" Jason screamed in pain, slapping Andrea hard across the face. Andrea fell to the ground but felt no pain. She only wanted to save her daughter. She lunged towards the operating table, grabbing a sharp scalpel and aiming it at Dr. West's neck. "B*tch! How dare you!" Jason shouted, rushing towards her and pulling out a dagger from his belt, aiming it at Andrea. He wouldn't allow his son's heart transplant to be disrupted. At that critical moment, a thunderous crash sounded as the operating room door was blown open with a single punch. At the same time, Jason's dagger slashed through the air, blood spraying out. Andrea didn't feel any pain. She opened her eyes and saw Nathan standing there. Then, tears immediately filled her eyes. Nathan had caught Jason's dagger with his right hand, blocking the fatal strike for Andrea and causing blood to flow from his hand. "Nathan... you're back! Finally! What took you so long? Please... Please save our daughter first!" Andrea said, and then lost all strength and collapsed into Nathan's arms. Nathan held Andrea tightly and then looked towards the operating table. He saw a little girl tied to the table. Her face was pale, and she was unconscious. Her chest was covered in blood and had a large incision across it. The girl's features bore a striking resemblance to Nathan's; she was like the smaller, female version of him. "That's my daughter…" Seeing her state, Nathan's eyes turned blood-red. Dr. West was about to continue the heart extraction, but Nathan's deathly glare froze him in his tracks. "Wait... what are you doing?" Before the doctor could finish, Nathan grabbed him by the neck and twisted it with immense force. Crack! Nathan's actions were swift and merciless; the doctor didn't even have a chance to struggle, his neck was broken in an instant. "Who are you? How did you get in here? Wh… Where are my bodyguards?!" Nathan's deadly actions terrified Jason; he couldn't help but stumble over his words. "You deserve to die!" Nathan growled through gritted teeth, hurling the doctor's corpse at Jason with all his strength. Bang! Jason couldn't dodge the blow. It felt like he had been hit by a truck; the impact broke several of his ribs instantly. Nathan gently laid Andrea down and rushed to the cold operating table, cutting all the ropes that bound his daughter. "My daughter…" Seeing the unconscious little girl, Nathan felt his heart broken. Without wasting a second, he grabbed the needle and thread from the operating table and started stitching up Abbie's wound. The needle and thread seemed to come alive in Nathan's hands, his every action was precise and nimble. In no time, Abbie's wound was stitched up, and the bleeding had stopped. "How dare you come here and cause trouble! You must have a death wish!" Jason struggled to stand and reached for his phone to call for help. But just then, Simon, clad in military uniform, entered the operating room first. Following behind Simon was John Decker, the leader of the SPECTRE(Special Executive for Counter-intelligence, Terrorism, Revenge, and Extortion), known as the Lord of Hell. Next came the Mysterious Valley of Healing's leader, the CEO of Infinity Conglomerate, the president of a small country, and the king of an international mercenary group. One by one, these prominent figures entered the operating room. When Nathan had stormed out of the Himalayas, his disciples had boarded their private jets, vowing to avenge their master's wife and daughter. "Who... who are you?" Jason was now utterly terrified. These people, though silent, radiated an intimidating and oppressive aura, far beyond that of ordinary individuals. "Do you know that the Hamilton family is the most powerful in Wesover City? You've trespassed and injured me and my men. Aren't you afraid of death?!" Jason made one last desperate attempt.
