Salute To The General

Chapter 989 Ripping Open An Iron Door

Jackie gasped for air feebly, eyes bulging from their sockets. His feet struggled impotently as Nathan's hand retained its vice-like grip around his neck. He knew he would die soon.

Nathan released his grip on Jackie's neck, tossing him aside casually. Jackie landed with a hard thud in front of the prison cell. Nathan's voice was cool. "Now, take out the keys and unlock the door."

Massaging his throat, Jackie gulped down lungful of air greedily. His voice was a feeble whisper of what it had been. "1-1... did not bring the keys.”

That was a lie. The keys were actually with him, but he was stalling for time.

There were thousands of other guards in his prison. It would not take too long for an alert to be raised, and he was banking on the arrival of more reinforcements.

Nathan saw through the ploy almost immediately and felt disgusted by the sight of the pathetic warden. He knew he had to act quickly. Gripping the iron bars of the cell door tightly, he inhaled and started to exert pressure slowly.

In the dead silence of the deepest parts of the prison, the screeching of metal being forced out of shape was unbearably loud.

Taking a step backward, Nathan regarded the results of his handiwork. The durable iron bars of the prison cell pried wider from his sheer force.

Jackie just stared and gaped in soundless surprise. Terror overtook him, and he inhaled sharply. This crazy man had pried the iron bars of the cell open with his bare hands!
