Female Novel
Chapter 550 Crisis
Late at night, outside Loxton, Zobber and Withal parked a discreet black SUV in a pile of grass in front of a factory. The factoryhad been abandoned for many years, and the grass had grown taller than a person, making it quite hidden.
However, very few people came here, so suddenly appearing in the workshop would definitely attract attention.
Withal decided to leave the car where it was and sneak in while it was dark. When he got out of the car, however, Zobbergrabbed him.
“I'll go. You keep watch!”“Are you sure?” Withal asked.
Zobber nodded without hesitation, not only because she wanted to impress the leader but also because she understood that thistask suited her better. She was petite, agile, and less likely to be detected, although her combat skills were not as good asWithal's.
Loxton was not their territory, so it wasn’t suitable to cause a scene. It was better to use strategy. Withal didn’t say anything morewhen he saw her determination, but he gave her a final reminder.
“Remember, if | tell you to retreat, no matter the situation, you must retreat promptly. Do you understand?”
If anything happened to Zobber, he wouldn't be able to face Catherine. To Catherine, the person was always more importantthan the mission.
Zobber didn’t argue with Withal. She obediently nodded, lowered her cap, pushed open the car door, and got out of the car.
Seeing her lower her hat, Withal felt a sense of familiarity, as if he was looking at Catherine. A faint smile appeared on his sternface.
Zobber swiftly climbed onto the roof of the factory building. The sound of her landing was even quieter than a cat’s.
The factory was empty. Zobber searched around but found no sign of activity. If she didn’t trust the organization’s intelligence,she would even doubt if she had been deceived.
Withal had also noticed this situation from the surveillance monitor. Before he came, he had already investigated this factory. Itwas a chemical factory left over from the previous century's invaders, and it had been abandoned due to rumors of haunting andits remote location. There were a few relatively sealed areas inside, and Withal transmitted the specific locations to Zobberthrough a wireless earpiece.
“Go and check these places.”novelbin
Zobber looked at the indicator in her hand. It was her team’s latest product, invented by Catherine, with extremely high accuracy.Withal pointed out a location. Even if it was three floors underground, Zobber could easily find it.
“Got it!”
Withal said, “Stay safe!”
Zobber descended slowly from the floor and made her way to the location Withal had mentioned through a secret passage.Finally, at the end of the path, she spotted a glimmer of light.
Amocking smile crossed Zobber’s face. She didn’t expect these bastards to hide in such a dark and airtight place. No wonder ittook her team so long to find them. But it didn’t matter. In the end, they would still be caught.
Zobber raised her hand and tapped the earpiece by her ear, whispering, ” Withal, keep a close eye on things. I’m going in now!”“Okay!”
Withal’s deep voice brought an inexplicable sense of security to Zobber. Perhaps it was the result of working together for manyyears. She never worried that Withal would abandon her.
Zobber approached her target slowly, preparing to take out the device behind her to attack.Suddenly, Withal’s stern voice came through the earpiece. “Wait!”Zobber halted her steps, instantly adopting a serious expression.
“Zobber, something is not right inside. Retreat for now.” Withal’s voice sounded urgent, indicating that the situation wasdangerous.
Zobber frowned, not showing any intention of retreating. She lowered her voice and anxiously asked Withal, ” Withal, what’sgoing on? Explain it to me!”
Withal replied anxiously, “There are too many people inside! Something is off. Retreat! Now!”
With the infrared device carried by Zobber, Withal detected an increase in the number of people inside. It contradicted theinformation they had received, making him suspect that something had gone wrong. To prevent Zobber from taking unnecessaryrisks, he decided to have her retreat first.
“The numbers don’t match? Withal, don’t worry. I'll take another look. If it’s really dangerous, I'll retreat!”
Zobber didn’t want to give up. It took her a long time to find this group of people. Whether it was for Catherine or for this country,she couldn’t let these bastards take the safe away.
Withal kept sending signals, which made Zobber impatient. She took off her earpiece at once.
Realizing that the situation had changed, Zobber became even more cautious. Sensing the approaching danger, she carefullypushed open the door in front of her.
Just as her hand touched the doorknob, a gust of cold wind struck her.
Zobber quickly took a step back.
Bang!
Aloud noise rang out as a bullet narrowly missed her forehead, almost hitting her head.
The other party showed no mercy, and Zobber was no longer patient. She pulled out her weapon and engaged in a fight with theopponent. She couldn’t believe that these people were really skilled.
With a couple of kicks, Zobber kicked the door open. As she entered, she was completely stunned by the scene inside.
The group of people she was targeting had already been subdued. Another group had arrived ahead of her and taken what theywanted from those bastards.
Zobber stared coldly at the masked figures in front of her and sternly demanded, “Hand over the safe, and | might spare yourlives.”
One of them sneered, their cold voice filled with disdain for Zobber.Zobber charged forward, and they began fighting.
Initially, the opponent wasn't awareof Zobber’s strength, so they didn’tuse their full power. After taking akick from Zobber, however, theyunleashed their full strength. VisitNovelDrama.Org to read the latestchapter of this novel

Zobber knew that if she kept fighting, she would surely die.
Seeing Zobber injured, the group of people seemed to have changed their strategy. They decided not to kill her but to captureher alive.
Just as Zobber was about to be captured, a deafening explosion shattered the silence in the room. Smoke filled the air,obscuring the scene in front of her.
Zobber only felt a pair of strong hands grabbing her arm. She immediately knew that her reinforcements had arrived. Sheshouted excitedly, “Withal!
Withal didn’t respond. With one hand around Zobber’s waist, he took advantage of the opponent's distraction and swiftly carriedher away.
The late-night phone ringing shattered Catherine's slumber. Her eyes opened instantly, shining but icy cold.
“What's going on?” Her deep voice seemed to contain immense power.
After learning the situation, Catherine immediately got up and briefly responded, “I see. I’m coming over now.”Hanging up the phone, Catherine was about to leave. Suddenly, a strong arm wrapped around her waist from behind.
At that moment, Catherine realizedthat she seemed to no longer bealone. The cold and stern expressionon her face softened, replaced by agentle smile as she turned to look atBranden behind her. VisitNovelDrama.Org to read the latestchapter of this novel
