Within moments, the soldiers managed to seal off the whole place.
At the same time, a loud buzzing sound was heard from the sky and a few helicopters appeared.
A general and a few National Guards hopped down the helicopters once they landed.
Rax knew that the general was the person in command based on his stance.
So he led a few of his loyal subordinates and strode towards the latter, regardless of his injuries. As they walked, he greeted, “Hello, commander. I am Rax from the Goldstein family. My family is the in-laws of Mr. Davier. You're all sent by him, right?”
However, before Rax and his men could even get close, a dozen of sub-machine guns were pointed at them.
He quickly stopped in his tracks and explain loudly, “Don't get me wrong. I am Rax Goldstein and I used to be Mr. Davier's in-law. I'm one of his people. We're on the same side.”
The man standing before them was none other than Franklin, the commander-in-chief of Channing.
He glanced at the bloody man standing before him and asked in shock, “You're the Mighty Rax, Rax Goldstein?”
Rax nodded and said, “That's right. We're all on the same side, commander.”
On the same side?
Franklin's lips curled into a mocking sneer before he said, “Who the hell is on your side, Rax?”
The captain of the National Guards, Callan, stepped forwards and immediately gave Rax a slap across his face. “Who do you think you are? How dare you name-drop our general?”
Normally, with Rax's capabilities, he would've killed Callan easily if the latter dared to harm him.
But he was severely injured by Nathan earlier. He was in indescribable pain, even breathing was difficult for him. He didn't have the energy, nor the capability to stop the captain's slap at all.
Not only that but there were also multiple guns pointed at him at the moment.
All he could do was watch as Callan landed a slap on his face.
Slap!
