Reborn in the Enemy's Embrace - Chapter 294
Chapter 294: CHAPTER 294 Chapter 294: CHAPTER 294 Outside the banquet hall, there were screams and sounds of wild beasts biting.
“Where are you taking me?” Dayton was dragged out.
I quickly pulled Dexter aside and signaled the others to find cover.
“Hide!
Quickly!” After I finished speaking, members of Genome Society on the cruise started shooting.
They killed people without discrimination, shooting anyone they saw.
Everyone screamed in fear and fled in different directions.
Shortly after, the banquet hall was filled with blood.
Everyone ran out crying because there were wild animals outside and mercenaries inside.
They were here to completely wipe out everything.
Zion protected Violette as they sought refuge under the table.
Violette held Ashton and Xandra close while using her hand to cover Yara’s mouth.
She was afraid that Yara would scream again.
On the other hand, Eason and Joel shielded Xandra Zander and took cover under the long table.
The palpable scent of blood in the banquet hall heightened everyone’s anxiety.
“They took Dayton away,” I whispered.
Dexter gestured for me to stay quiet.
Now, Genome Society would eradicate all those insignificant people.
The person they deemed valuable was none other than Dayton.
Several rich people were not convinced and still thought that they were valuable to Genome Society.” Where’s your leader?
I demand to see him.
Tell him we’re all from Zadiff Group, and I’m Yaniel Zabel.” “That’s right.
We’re all members of Genome Society.” Those people truly believed that they would be included on the rescue list.
But this cruise contained too many secrets of Genome Society.
They would never allow the people on the cruise to leave alive.
“Capture them alive and eliminate the others.” The leader held a tablet and compared them with the photos displayed on it.
I glanced at the corner and spotted the clever ones in hiding while the foolish ones were eager to negotiate with them.
Damien shielded Una and took cover behind the air conditioner.
Meanwhile, Jimmy did not attempt to hide, displaying remarkable confidence.
“They’re not on the list,” stated the leader as he checked his tablet.
Follow new episodes on the "N0vel1st.c0m".
Without hesitation, he opened fire on them.
The victims lay in a pool of blood, horrified.
“Dispose of their bodies in the sea to eliminate all evidence.
Let’s locate the people we’re searching for before the arrival of the rescue ship.
Then, we’ll detonate and sink the ship,” the leader commanded in a resolute tone.
The leader looked back at Jimmy and compared him to the photo.
“Mr.
Black, you may board the rescue ship now.” “I want to bring someone along,” Jimmy said firmly.
The leader fell silent and stepped to the side to seek guidance.
After a brief moment, he returned and asked, “Who is it?” Jimmy gazed at Una.
“Come here.
Don’t be afraid.” Una came out from under the table.
Jimmy had directly revealed Damien’s hiding spot.
Damien frowned and looked at the mercenaries warily.
The leader compared Una to the photo on his tablet and nodded in approval.
“You can bring her on board.
Madam is waiting for you.” The woman known as “Madam” was the leader of Genome Society who oversaw this operation.
Una frowned as he glanced at the leader’s tablet.
Then, she felt relieved and made her way out with Jimmy.
Meanwhile, Damien simply stopped hiding and walked out.
“Mr.
Coleman, you may board first.
Madam is waiting for you,” the leader spoke again.
Damien was momentarily taken aback, slightly startled to find himself on the list.
In a curious tone, he inquired, “Who’s on the list?” The leader showed Damien the photos, and Damien took a deep breath.
Upon seeing that there were three more people on the list, he asked, “Can I take them with me, then?” After the leader nodded, Damien called out in a low voice, “Dexter and Sofia…” Genome Society would not allow Dexter and me to die.
Dexter was one of the participants in the soul reincarnation experiment proposed by Genome Society, and I was the most valuable experimental subject at the moment.
Dexter and I exchanged glances.
There were only two of us.
What about Zion, Eason, and the others?
“And Joel,” Damien called out the third name.
Joel was also a valuable experimental subject in the soul reincarnation experiment.
Unfortunately, apart from the three of us, everyone else would be eliminated.
“Captain, the bomb has been planted.” A mercenary walked in.
I furrowed my brows and cast a wary glance at those mercenaries.
Ashton and Xandra were still on the cruise, and Dexter and I wouldn’t leave Zion and the others behind.
“Find the people we’re searching for,” the leader ordered.
The mercenaries commenced their search.
Dexter shielded me and exchanged a knowing look with Ashton.
In an instant, Ashton understood Dexter’s message and whistled at the banquet hall’s door.
The wolfhounds all rushed in, baring their teeth at the mercenaries with guns.
Following Ashton’s command, the wolfhounds rushed toward the mercenaries.
We used this chance to escape.
“The cruise is going to sink soon, and they plan to blow it up.
What should we do?” asked Eason.
“Aren’t you a genius?
Why are you asking us?” Joel exclaimed.
The two were about to fight again.
I furrowed my brows and stopped them.
“This isn’t the right time to argue.
Let’s go back to our room first.
I gazed meaningfully at Yara, who lowered her head guiltily and sought refuge behind Violette.
“Let’s return to the room first.
I’ll use satellite communication to send our location and guide the rescue ship to us.” Zion assured our safety as we expedited our departure.
We found Maverick injured in the corridor when we reached our room.
He seemed seriously hurt after being bitten.
His “allies” seemed to have abandoned him.
Just as we were going to enter the room, he reached out and stopped us.
“Don’t go in.” He mustered the last of his strength to speak, “They’ve entered your room.” We peered down the corridor with vigilance, knowing that the mercenaries were closing in on us.
There were no other options.
The satellite communication equipment was still in the room.
Zion had no choice but to take the risk.
He opened the door and rushed into the room.
When he entered, he found Stan being beaten by those people.
He was covered in blood.
It was likely they were unaware that Stan was a lunatic.
They assumed Stan was associated with us.
Who would have thought that Stan was a lunatic?
The more he was beaten, the crazier he laughed.
As we entered the door, the group turned around and looked at us.
At this moment, Stan rushed toward the leader and stabbed him in the neck, specifically targeting the carotid artery.
Stan laughed maniacally while still covered in blood.
The leader placed his hands on his neck in shock.
But before he could react to Stan, he fell to the ground and died.
Stan continued to laugh uncontrollably.
“They left.
The small boat left.” Stan pointed out the window.
The masked woman managed to escape with Ewan and Dayton, and the members of Genome Society were chasing them.
“If you all want to live, you’d better behave!” Zion warned the remaining people.
Then, he pressed Stan to the ground, tied him up, and threw him to Eason.
He pried open the gap in the wall and retrieved the satellite communication equipment, fully prepared to contact the rescuers.
The sound of gunshots grew increasingly nearer, as did the barking of dogs.
It was evident that the mercenaries were approaching.
With a loud bang, the door was suddenly kicked open.
The mercenaries entered with guns, killing without mercy.
“Take the people we look for and leave no one else alive!” Just as the leader was about to take action, the cruise ship suddenly jolted violently, and the bomb detonated prematurely.
The deafening sound was followed by another series of explosions, causing the massive cruise ship to begin to tilt.
In that intense moment, Dexter instinctively shielded me in his arms and protected Ashton and Xandra.
He used his own body as a cushion as the cruise ship slid down.
“Dad…” “The cruise is sinking!
It’s filling up with water!” “Leave!” “Hurry up!”
