Chapter 525
In the western border of Florence, there was a small motorcade driving on the winding road.
At this time, the sun was setting in the west, stretching out the shadows of the motorcade.
“Sir, there’s a relay station ahead. Let’s take a break there! Once we pass that relay station, the next
one will be at Stepus a thousand miles away. We won’t be able to resupply for a while.”
Upon hearing this, Marcus rolled down the car window
The scenery outside was completely different from Sumeria, but it had its unique charm. He quite liked
it.
There was the intermittent sound of camel bells.
It was a vast desert. The sights and sounds blended together to form the magnificent landscape of
Florence, which was captivating.
“Okay” Marcus smiled brightly. “This should be our last stop in Florence. When our motorcade leaves
here, let’s head toward Arbral. We’ll rest for half an hour and replenish our supplies.”
A few minutes later, the motorcade stopped at the relay station.
Marcus got out of the car, breathed in the different air, and felt a sense of openness.

The employees at the relay station were very enthusiastic and greeted him as they approached.
“You’re Mr. Freely, right? You’re here for the inspection. Come, come, come. Please, have a seat!”
“Here is some freshly brewed kumis, one of the specialties of the western region. If you’re not used to
it, we also have tea from Florence!”
“Mr. Freely, you must be tired after traveling. Would you like to wash your face?”
“Mr. Freely…”
The enthusiasm of these people made Marcus somewhat uncomfortable.
However, he could not bring himself to refuse these simple and honest people.
After some bustle, he finally broke free and went to the nearby restroom.
“Hm?”
Suddenly, he saw some blood that had not dried up in a corner.
Why would there be blood in a relay station?
Could it be…
Marcus instantly became alert.
Those people earlier had been overly enthusiastic!
He calmly walked out and caught the faint coppery scent of blood coming from the nearby utility room.
Taking advantage of no one noticing him, he quietly went in.
As soon as he did, he was shocked!
He saw several bodies lying haphazardly with the skin peeled off their faces!

Marcus carefully approached them.
The earring on the left ear of one of the corpses was exactly the same as the one sent to his phone. It
belonged to one of the station employees.
These corpses were the real employees whereas the people outside were imposters.
Oh no!
Those people must be coming for him!
He had to escape!
Marcus climbed out of the window, checked the situation outside, and found that his guards had

The imposters had already blocked his way.
A mocking look flashed in the leader’s eyes as he smiled. “Mr. Freely, since you’ve found out, I advise
you to surrender! Otherwise… you’ll suffer!”
Marcus‘ face instantly turned cold, and he lunged at the person who looked the weakest in the group.
Only by breaking through the encirclement would he have a chance to survive.
“Are you fighting back? Get him! Don’t let him escape!” the leader shouted loudly and charged forward
Bam!
Bam!
Bam!
Both sides started fighting.
As a retired soldier, Marcus was exceptionally powerful.
However, he was outnumbered and quickly subdued. He was tied down firmly on the ground.
“Let’s go. We’ll take him back and collect the reward.”
They pushed Marcus into the car and swiftly left the place.
The small relay station was left in silence, along with a blood–red setting sun.
In the car, the leader reported to Kabreh, “Marshal, we’ve captured Marcus Freely. What do we do
next?”
