The Born Winner (Jack and Katherine)

Chapter 983 What Were the Odds?

The chaos was not limited to the place of killing just now.

Due to the crowding, following the escape of horrified passersby, they also brought fear together with

them when they fled.

Jack stumbled through the evacuating crowds. Many people were screaming in fear, echoing through

Jack's ears nightmarishly.

In his bewitched state, Jack's appearance was indeed horrifying. Therefore, no matter where he went,

he was the center of attention. As for the other people who had witnessed Jack's massacre, they were

all stunned in fear.

Jack was moving based on his beastly instinct to escape. And as the screams around him got louder,

he became even more panicked.

The residual strength in his body would not last any longer, and with every step he took, he felt weaker

and weaker.

However, the changes in his surrounding made him became even more cautious. Therefore, he picked

up his pace, rudely pushed the crowds blocking his way, and desperately rushed ahead.

Behind the crowd, Medea anxiously followed Jack. It was hard for her to passed through the squeezing

crowd. With her physique, tracking down Jack in the crowd was like going through a marsh.

She could see Jack a few moments ago, but with a blink of an eye, Jack's figure had disappeared from

her sight.

Anxious, nervous, panic, desperate...

All kinds of emotions filled her body when she was struggling through the crowd.

She had been waiting for Jack for a long time. Before this, she had deployed a ten thousand joint

forces of a dozen tribes just to capture Jack alive. Even though at that time, the main objective was to

rescue Commander Shawn, however when she knew of Jack's existence, she didn't care much about

the life and death of Commander Shawn.

She thought she had already lost the chance to capture Jack. But who knew, things took a turn, and

Jack appeared in front of her in such a miraculous way.

This time, she must take the chance.

Because this was the man she wanted!

Before long, the tribe joint forces would be launching their attack going down south. To defend against

the high and mighty War of God, Jack would be the most important asset as well!

Inside Medea's head, this terrifying man could match the strength of Zenith!

As long as she could use Jack to get rid of their fear for Zenith, the joint army forces could launch their

attack down south audaciously, demolishing Thegiant City into rubble.

"Wait, wait for me, don't leave..."

In the midst of mixed feelings, Medea even shouted out.

Medea had to put on uglier makeup so that it would be easier for her to walk outside without getting

noticed. If not, her words just now would stun a lot of people.

My goodness!

How could the most alluring and prettiest woman in the tribes, Medea, stoop so low?

Medea was the most important person for the joint alliance for the tribes. Her beauty and charm were

one of the many reasons why many tribal leaders were able to sit down together and discuss

peacefully.

And it was because of this achievement and merit, Medea was regarded as the Wolf from the tribes

leaders.

However, what came in front of Medea right now was left with crowds of people who were still shocked

and horrified by the event, as for Jack... he had already long disappeared from Medea's sight.

On the other side.

Jack, who had been roughly struggling, scrambled into a tight alley like a frightened bird.

The screaming and shouting sound around him instantly became lesser.

Jack immediately felt slightly calmer.

He slowed down his pace and staggered through the alley. Even though he used his hands to support

his body on the tight alley walls, he felt that he might fall anytime.

"Puff... puff..."

Jack's short and abrupt breathing sound echoed through the tight alleyway like drums.

Behind Jack was the panic-stricken crowd of people.

Jack struggled through the tight alleyway with both his hands, lurching at a slow pace.

Inside his head, he felt as if the skies and grounds were spinning.

The red glow in his eyes became extremely dim.

Now and then, he would shake his head violently.

As he walked further away from the bustling and noisy crowds outside the alleyway, Jack's pace

became slower and slower, and his body was becoming heavier and heavier.

Through the alleyway behind him, there were only blurred faces and figures of the bustling crowds

outside.

Jack's face was still appalling. The nerves and blood vessels on his face bulged, and he was in a

dazed state as if he would faint anytime soon.

Behind him, Medea's anxious face passed the alleyway, moving forward.

Finally, when Jack took another step forward, his body could not take it anymore.

The last step was as though a step into a large hole, and his body fell forward after he took the step.

Thump!

Jack fell forward and fainted on the alleyway.

The snowy wind continued to blow.

Snow scattered through the tight alleyway.

Slowly covering Jack’s body.

The surroundings around him were quiet and silent, creating a big contrast from the bustling streets

outside of the narrow alleyway.

The thoughtless escape led Jack into this silent alleyway. If no one discovered him here, perhaps his

destiny would be the same as not making out of Skyline Mountain.

Shuffle… shuffle…

Muffled footsteps gradually appeared from the other end of the alleyway.

The footsteps were rapid, but light, as though someone was walking on toes cautiously but hastily.

"Brother, what about that man? What about that man?"

A girl's voice appeared, which sounded like a bird chirping. Her cautious and unwilling voice echoed

through the tight alleyway, "The man is injured, and he didn't eat and drink much. If we don't care about

him, he, he..."

“Shut up!”

A boy scolded her and stopped her voice, then lectured her in a deep voice, "Amanda, do you know

that any kind of kindness would kill both of us? This is a rare opportunity. As long as we don't get

caught, whether we become hobos or beggars, is still better than becoming a slave! I'm here to protect

you, but I can only protect you!"

"That guy is an adult, even if he's injured, even if his body is weak, he can still run away easier than

other children. Why are you always worrying about him?"

"I don't know. But from the first time I saw him, I could feel the kindness from him."

The little girl's voice filled with uncertainty, "Mom taught us to be kind. When I first saw the man, I feel

like I saw Dad."

"You..." The boy's voice became low and heavy, with a slight whimper, "Mom and dad were too kind,

that's why our village got trampled, and that's why they died in front of our eyes. From today onwards,

there's only you and me. Follow me, and I will try all my best to protect you. When I grow up, no one

can ever bully us again."

Their voices came from a distance, coming closer and closer.

Slow, two figures appeared. One of them was taller and bigger than the other.

As they got closer, the two were the boy and Amanda who had escaped earlier.

"Brother, are we really going to neglect that man?" Amanda carefully asked. She knew that her brother

was trying to protect her, but she couldn't stop worrying about Jack.

"You..." The boy was speechless. He did not expect that at all. After everything he had said, he thought

he had diverted Amanda's attention. Who knew that only after a brief moment, she brought it up again?

His face was extremely somber, and his eyes were slightly panic-stricken. He led Amanda through the

tight alleyway walls and squatted down in a corner, anxiously looking at the entrance where they came

from. When he was sure that no one followed them in, then only he let a sigh of relief.

He was but a child, only a few years older and slightly taller than most children. However, compared to

an adult, his physique was still considered small.

The only way he could think of to protect his sister was to hide her away from all the dangers and

potential harms.

When his parents died, his mother used her blood-stained hands and handed him his sister. Other than

hiding, he could not think of any other way.

He would do anything at any cost to protect his sister, even if it meant at the cost of his own life.

It was cruel, but looking at their situation, he had no other choice.

He looked beside his feet and saw a broken bamboo mat. It was ragged and worn out, and it was a bit

musty as well. However, they could hide underneath it.

Rustle…

The boy pulled the broken bamboo map up, but he didn't remove the snow on top so that it looked

more realistic. All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

However, when he was going to cover the bamboo mat on himself and Amanda's head.

Suddenly.

“Sir!”

The boy was speechless.

How did he come here?

Before he could react, Amanda already let go of her hand and ran into another direction.

The boy turned around and looked and was instantly stunned. "How the hell can this even happen?"
