As the moment approached, Felix signaled Shepherd, who sighed while stroking the steering wheel. "Ah, you've been with me for years. This time you probably won't even be fixable. Goodbye."
His sudden betrayal would definitely destroy the car. He seemed to have a genuine attachment to it.
"Don't worry, I'll get you another one."
Behind the Mercedes-Benz, four masters of Transcendent Realm followed. They were maintaining the maximum distance where they could see the G63 without being detected by its occupants.
"Stay alert. We're far enough from Imperial City. They could act at any moment."
The leader had barely finished speaking when a companion complained, "We should have thought to turn Shepherd earlier. We would have succeeded already."
"Shut up! Focus on the task at hand."
Suddenly, at the edge of their vision, the G63 exploded. They heard Andre's furious roar. "Shepherd! How dare you attack me?"
The four immediately accelerated toward the scene.
"Felix! Run! Shepherd has betrayed us. There must be others waiting!" Ezra's face darkened.
Without a word, Felix began fleeing rapidly.
"Damn you, Shepherd! After all our years of friendship and everything I've done for you, you throw it all away for money!" Deborah cursed.
Having seriously wounded Andre, Shepherd now blocked Deborah's path, sneering at her words. He said, "Spare me the lecture. Every man for himself. Their offer was too good to refuse. Wouldn't you agree?"
While the four put on their performance, Felix ran at full speed. He had not gone far when he sensed four powerful killing intents rapidly approaching.
"Felix Zeller, you can't escape!"
"Isn't that Corpse Town ahead, one of the Three Forbidden Lands?"
The four pursuers finally recognized what lay ahead.
"Keep chasing, and I'll enter Corpse Town!"
Felix acted desperate and helpless, which made the four laugh out loud. "You wouldn't have the guts! Better to die quickly by our hands."
With a hateful glance back, Felix charged toward Corpse Town with determination.
Just as he was secretly rejoicing about his escape, someone emerged from the town. Upon seeing Felix, they released an overwhelming wave of killing intent.
"Felix? The gods must be on my side this time!"
