Chapter 108

Alex drew in a deep breath, suppressing his energy until he matched the guards at roughly level twenty.

In a split second, he swung a fast punch at the nearest guard.

The man's face caved in under the blow-his nose broke, blood splattered, and two teeth flew out.

Everyone froze. They had never expected Alex to retaliate so fiercely, this quickly.

The "chicken" they had planned to hunt had suddenly turned into a tiger.

Jack's face went pale. "He's only an ex-military grunt. You're elite soldiers-go get him!" he yelled at the other guards.

The remaining guards glanced uneasily at one another before closing in.

Yet Alex moved with unbelievable speed.

He delivered a swift kick to each man's face, sending them reeling

Every guard seemed to move in slow motion while Alex alone looked like he was fighting in fast-forward.

Before Jack realized what was happening, all of Marco's guards were lying on the ground, groaning in pain.

"You!" Jack stumbled backward, pointing at Alex.

"You stole my sister's money, and now you dare attack us?" He raised his voice so everyone in the apartment's first floor could

"Help! This man is a thief and he's beating people up! Someone call security! Call the police!"

He was shouting as loudly as he could. "Take his picture! Show his face to everyone-this man's a thief!"

A few curious onlookers, especially some women, began filming the scene with their smartwatches.

"Alex, you'd better give us the money back," Jack warned. "Don't make us angry."

Alex sighed, noticing the small crowd gathering. He raised his voice. "I didn't steal anything. He's accusing me of something I didn't do!"

"Liar!" Jack roared. "You scammed my sister out of her money!"

"She gave it to me willingly," Alex replied, stepping forward. Terrified, Jack backed away.
