Chapter 1846: The Battle of the Heron and the Clam, the Fisherman Profits
The unidentified black-clad individuals began to surround Vicki and Felix, their numbers overwhelming
and making it difficult for them to defend themselves. Initially, they fought side by side, but later, they
became increasingly overwhelmed.
Felix and Vicki were separated, and seeing more people attacking Vicki, Felix grew anxious and
wanted to end the fight quickly. However, the more he rushed, the more vulnerable he became, and he
suddenly took several punches to the abdomen. The pain caused him to double over, but even so, he
managed to fend off several individuals attempting to attack Vicki. After all, Vicki was pregnant.
Finally shaking off the few people in front of him, Felix grabbed Cloud from behind and angrily
questioned, "Are these reinforcements you called for? If you truly love Vicki, how could you let her get
hurt? Your love only revolves around power and yourself!"
"Nonsense!" Cloud kicked away the person attacking him in front, "These people aren't mine!"
Although Felix had suspected it, hearing Cloud admit it firsthand still shocked him.
If they weren't Cloud's people, then whose could they be? It was highly unlikely that they were sent by
Joyce and Luther; otherwise, they wouldn't be attacking him. Christian wouldn't send people to attack
Vicki. Athena's people wouldn't attack Cloud. It was too strange. He couldn't figure out who this third-
party force could be. Their intervention in this chaotic situation seemed to indicate that their target wasnovelbin
Vicki.
Damn it! He had something else to worry about. The effect of the anti-electromagnetic pulse metal rod
was limited and couldn't last forever. Soon, Vicki's hands and feet would be restrained. What should
they do then?
Felix grabbed Cloud by his collar and landed a punch on his face, "You bastard, unlock her electronic
restraints quickly!"
Cloud was nearly stunned by Felix's punch. Regaining his senses, he forcefully pushed Felix away,
defending himself against the attacks of the unfamiliar assailants. Meanwhile, he hurried towards Vicki.
Just as Vicki was fending off an attack, she saw a black-clad individual about to kick her in the
abdomen. Felix rushed forward and stood in front of her.
With a muffled groan, Felix took the full force of the kick, feeling the pain as if his internal organs had
shifted out of place. But he was relieved that Vicki remained unharmed.
At that moment, Cloud rushed over and grabbed Vicki's wrist, but she instinctively tried to break free.
"Don't move!" Cloud shouted, swiftly removing an electronic lock from one of Vicki's wrists.
Vicki hesitated for a moment before understanding Cloud's intention.
She fought and retreated until she reached a corner, while Felix continued to defend in front.
Cloud quickly removed the remaining electronic locks from Vicki's body.
However, at that moment, a black-clad person launched a surprise attack from behind Cloud. Caught
off guard, Cloud was kicked to the ground, tumbling a few times before managing to struggle to his
feet.
Vicki and Felix were once again separated.
With his vision blocked and unable to see Vicki, Felix grew increasingly frantic and began to lose his
footing. Suddenly, someone struck forcefully at the back of his neck. Felix felt darkness envelop him,
knowing that he was about to lose consciousness. He was filled with worry and had no idea how Vicki
was faring. Who were these people?
In his final moments with his eyes closed, Felix saw someone wielding a knife aimed at his chest.
The gleaming silver blade pierced his eyes, revealing that their target was not only Vicki but also his
life!
He knew he had to avoid it, but his brain could no longer command his body, and he could only watch
helplessly as the blade approached him. Finally, he closed his eyes weakly, not worried about himself
but only concerned about Vicki. As long as she was safe, everything would be fine.
Just as the dagger was about to pierce Felix's chest, Mr. Ball suddenly appeared and kicked the person
holding the knife from behind, while Nishant rushed forward, blocking Felix's body.
"Protect Mr. Saunders!" Mr. Ball shouted, "Get him out of here first!"
Nishant quickly supported the unconscious Felix and headed towards the secret passage. Their people
had already entered, defending, protecting, and retreating simultaneously.
With Felix propped on Nishant's shoulder, after stumbling a few steps, he suddenly regained
consciousness, opening his eyes with sheer determination.
He grabbed Nishant tightly, "Don't worry about me, save Vicki."
Nishant refused, "I'm sorry, Mr. Saunders, but my primary task is to ensure your safety."
"You bastard!" Felix pushed Nishant away and stumbled back.
Nishant hurriedly approached Felix to support him and shielded him from sudden attacks.
Mr. Ball saw the situation and shouted, "I haven't seen Vicki; she's not here."
Felix felt a cold sweat run down his back, and his head began to spin on the verge of fainting.
His voice trembled, "It's impossible... I saw her earlier..."
He forcefully opened his eyes and scanned the surroundings, but Vicki was nowhere to be seen.
Not only that, but even Cloud was searching for Vicki, his anger uncontrollable as he fought against Mr.
Ball.
"Where did you take her? Hand her over. Don't think you can take her away."
Mr. Ball took a punch and retaliated with another, "You better hand her over!"
After a few exchanges, they realized something.
They were all searching for Vicki, but she was nowhere to be found. Clearly, Vicki had been kidnapped
by a third party amid the chaos.
The heron and the clam were fighting, and the fisherman was profiting.
It was evident that the opposing side had come prepared and had been secretly observing both sides
all along. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to seize the opportunity so accurately.
The most crucial point was that they had no idea who the opposing side was. And they had no idea
where to start looking.
Realizing the dire situation, Felix's vision went dark, and he finally couldn't hold on any longer, losing
consciousness.
Mr. Ball signaled Nishant with his eyes. Given the circumstances, they had no choice but to prioritize
Mr. Saunders' safety.
The fight continued as their people gradually retreated. The members of the third party and Cloud's
people were still entangled, but it was evident that many of them were also withdrawing, having likely
achieved their objective.
Although Mr. Ball felt unwilling, he had no other choice but to bring the unconscious Felix back to their
stronghold as quickly as possible.
Nishant, alone, searched every corner of the stronghold but couldn't find any trace of Vicki. Helpless,
he grabbed one member of the third party and tied them up, taking them along to be questioned later.
Meanwhile, Cloud, after repelling the third-party forces, searched everywhere for Vicki but found no
signs of her.
It was only when he discovered one of Vicki's earrings in a hidden passage connected to the
underground defense network that he realized Vicki had been abducted by someone and taken through
the underground network to an unknown location.
If it wasn't Felix, then who could it be?
Who was targeting her?
Cloud suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, and his back turned cold. When they were younger, Vicki
had been kidnapped by Seren, and that ominous premonition struck him again. He worried that this
time, Vicki was truly in danger!
