Three airplanes sped toward the scene. They were fifth-generation fighter jets equipped with assault weaponry.
The Winston family was frozen in fear.
Adrenaline coursed through Ethan's veins as he stared at the sight. He almost wanted to give himself a good smack on the face to make sure he was not dreaming.
Linda, Kevin, and Jennifer were equally shocked.
Jennifer could not help but look to Donald as she whispered, “What's going on?”
Instead of answering her question, Donald pointed into the distance and muttered, “There’s more.”
At first, they could only see the vast ocean before them.
Soon enough, a massive contraption sped in their direction.
It was a destroyer!
Jacob stepped forward and announced, “The Pollerton Destroyer
Army has assembled, General Felton.
Only one member is absent from our a-hundred-thousand-strong army. Awaiting your orders, General!”
Kingsley acknowledged his report before shooting Zachary an intimidating stare.
Zachary immediately fell to his knees and pleaded for mercy, “Please, Wyvern King, we have done nothing wrong!”
“He’s right! We only came to have a stroll!”
“We haven't done anything at all!”
Members of the Winston family chimed in, desperately pleading for their innocence.
Kingsley's icy glare remained as he uttered, “Ms. Wilson organized the construction of a three-lane highway as groundwork for Lord Campbell Avenue, but you stopped her and delayed the construction progress!”
Albert's heart skipped a beat. The thing he feared the most had still happened.
Meanwhile, Kingsley pointed at Linda and the others and ordered, “Those of you who are not involved, leave.”
Linda pulled Kevin and Jennifer along with her as she made her escape.
Jennifer tried to pull Donald along with her, but he said, “You go ahead. I need to explain the situation clearly.”
After some thought, Jennifer replied, “All right. I'll wait for you outside.”
A military vehicle arrived to take Jennifer and the others to a place five kilometers away.
“Let's begin,” Donald declared.
