Chapter 206: Chapter 202: Entering Danger Again Driving out of the factory, fire trucks and police cars whizzed by the roadside, swiftly rushing to the scene of the explosion. Ling Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, reaching towards his waist. Instantly, he furrowed his brows, feeling the warmth in his palms. Raising his hand, he saw it was covered with fresh blood. He gently lifted the corner of his coat, where a rusty piece of rebar was lodged in his waist. During the explosion, this broken rebar from a beam, propelled by the blast wave, had impaled him. Previously, he had been too focused on escaping to notice the pain. But now that he relaxed, excruciating pain surged through him, making him grit his teeth. There was nothing in the car to stop the bleeding, and he dared not pull out the rebar. Enduring the pain, he barely managed to drive the car towards the rendezvous point. However, just as the car started moving, the rear end suddenly suffered a fierce collision, almost smashing his forehead against the steering wheel. Through the rear-view mirror, he saw several Chevrolet SUVs closely following his car. With the streetlights illuminating the road, he clearly saw Zhang Xueli sitting in the passenger seat of one of the Chevrolets. "Damn it, this woman really won’t give up," he cursed under his breath, hastening his speed to distance himself from them. "Catch up, don’t let him escape." In the Chevrolet, Zhang Xueli clenched her teeth, her eyes filled with raging fury and hatred, wishing she could capture Ling Chen immediately and take his life. As the person in charge of this secret base, she had let it be destroyed, a dereliction of her duty. She knew the higher-ups would blame her. Thinking of the organization’s punitive measures, she couldn’t help but shudder. Her hatred for Ling Chen intensified even more. All the way, Ling Chen dared not relax, pushing the car to its limits, speeding through red lights and causing several accidents. The three Chevrolet SUVs closely pursued, relentlessly tailing him. Nicosia City wasn’t very large, but also not too small. After about ten minutes, Ling Chen drove onto a seaside elevated bridge. Through the window, the turbulent sea was visible on the left. Beneath the darkness, the ocean seemed to wear a mysterious veil, creating a sense of eeriness and unease. After driving a few kilometers, Ling Chen saw the congested traffic ahead and his face changed instantly. It seemed his luck had run out; he encountered a dead end. Shifting into reverse, he attempted to back up, but the three Chevrolets had already caught up, blocking his way. Seeing this, Ling Chen pushed open the car door, planning to make his way on foot through the traffic. However, before he could get out, the Chevrolets behind him surged forward, slamming hard into the rear of his car. Propelled by the impact, Ling Chen’s body shook violently, his head knocking against several spots painfully, especially worsening his waist injury, from which blood continuously poured out, quickly staining the driver’s seat red. Before Ling Chen could react, his car was hit violently again. Aside from the Chevy behind, the other two Chevrolets struck from both sides, severely deforming the car body, making it impossible to open the doors normally. Seeing those men in suits rushing out of their cars, Ling Chen didn’t waste any moment, kicked hard against the windshield, and then climbed out through the front window. Taking the opportunity before the pursuers caught up, he clutched his wound, stepping on the vehicles in front to move quickly. His actions immediately drew the ire of many drivers who got out of their cars and began yelling at Ling Chen. In this critical life-threatening moment, Ling Chen couldn’t care less, running desperately to shake off the pursuers. However, the suited men behind continued their relentless pursuit, not giving up at all. With the strenuous running, Ling Chen’s waist wound worsened, bleeding profusely. Feeling his body weaken, Ling Chen was well aware that if he didn’t get medical treatment soon, he would eventually die from excessive blood loss. "Stop!" Hearing the sounds gradually closing in from behind, Ling Chen gasped for air and looked back; those men in suits were less than twenty meters away from him. With his current condition, his legs felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead, moving painfully, and it was only a matter of time before he would be caught. At that moment, he clenched his teeth and quickly walked to the edge of the overpass, observing the ocean surface thirty meters below. Without any hesitation, he leaped straight down. Splash! Accompanied by a splash, Ling Chen dove into the water and quickly moved along with the waves. A group of men in suits rushed to the railing of the overpass, peering out to try and locate Ling Chen. However, the ocean surface was pitch black and, without light, nothing could be seen clearly. As time ticked by, Ling Chen was soaked in the ocean waters for over half an hour, letting the waves push his body along. Now, he truly had no strength left to move his arms. Not long after, he saw a bright light not far away, surrounded by dozens of yachts. It was the dock! His eyes lit up, and he immediately gathered his spirits and swam with all his might towards it. Nonetheless, hampered by the resistance of the waves, he was pushed back every time he swam out more than ten meters, repetitively. The dock that seemed so close appeared impossibly distant. Driven by a strong will to survive, Ling Chen did not give up and pushed himself to the limit. Finally, fortune favored the determined; by sheer willpower, he successfully reached the shore. Crawling onto the dock, he collapsed on the ground, breathing heavily and his face pale. Lifting up his shirt, he looked at the wound on his waist and gave a wry smile. Soaked in the ocean for so long, along with the salt content in the sea, the wound had worsened significantly; even a gentle touch caused a piercing pain. Laying on the ground for a while, Ling Chen felt his head heavy and his consciousness blurring, his body seemed to lose strength, and he didn’t want to move but just wished to sleep. No! He gritted his teeth secretly; he absolutely couldn’t sleep at this time. If he did, he might never wake up again. Taking a deep breath, he propped himself up with his hands, struggling with all his might to stand up and started staggering forwards. Not far out, he suddenly saw on a white yacht parked next to the dock, two tall women. Was it them? His heart leaped with joy, his strong desire to survive drove him, and he rushed towards them quickly. "Hey..." Waving his arms, he shouted with all his strength, hoping to catch their attention. However, just as he almost reached the yacht, his body could no longer hold on, his legs gave out, and he collapsed on the ground, falling unconscious. (I’m injured, forgive the late update.)
