Chapter 1262
"Thank you, Mr. Thompson!" Bruce's fight was instantly awakened.
"I'll take them to the capital and send special guards to keep them safe."
"Get ready for battle! I have high hopes for you," Richard said and patted Bruce's shoulder heavily.
Bruce was the successor Richard had long chosen. He was the student Richard was most satisfied with.
Richard believed that Bruce would definitely complete the mission and return safely.
Moreover, Richard did not have much time left. He was plagued by illness. Before he fell, he had to hand over the burden on his shoulders to the person he trusted the most.
"I declare that Operation Wolffight is imminent!"
"I request to fight!"
"I request to fight..."
The other agents were all fired up and wanted to sign up for this operation.
Bruce's blood was burning as he looked at those burning gazes.
He could not continue to be dispirited like this.
As an indomitable man, he was destined to carry a heavy burden on his shoulders. Not only did he have to bear the burden of the family, but he also had to bear the burden of the country. His wife and children were important, but the safety and interests of the country were more important.
Richard was right. There were no deserters or cowards in the National Defense Bureau.
Even if he had to die, he had to kill his enemies and those heartless scientists first.
Previously, he had been worried about the safety of Joanna and the children.
Now, with Richard's guarantee, he could go without worry.
He was going to South Elmerton.
After rescuing his fifth child, he wanted to tear Miya into pieces. Last time, he couldn't completely eliminate District 17. This time, he would wipe them out! Back at the hospital.
It was already past seven in the evening.
Bruce came to the ICU to see Joanna. "Joann, don't worry. I will definitely bring our child back safely. You have to wait for me. Wait for me to come back!"
Joanna was still lying there lifelessly, completely in a vegetative state.
The doctor said that this was her best condition. The probability of her waking up was at most 5%.
"Joann..." Bruce gently stroked Joanna's hair, and tears could not help but fall from his eyes.
Suddenly, he remembered the time when he was at District 17.
Ron was working on a special medicine that could prolong life. It was called Soft Accumulation Liquid.
This was the extraction of fluid from the brains of deep-water marine animals. This fluid had anti-aging and life-prolonging effects.
It was favored by foreign dignitaries and tycoons.
However, this kind of Soft Accumulation Liquid was too precious and too difficult to obtain! For a sea creature as big as a killer whale, people could only extract one gram of soft liquid in its brain at most. Even a small bottle of Soft Accumulation Liquid meant killing countless marine creatures. Therefore, countries all over the world banned the appearance of such medicine.
Bruce's sorrowful mood was suddenly ignited with a glimmer of hope.
Perhaps there was such a kind of medicine available at the base in South Elmerton.
Thinking of this, he became even more determined to go to South Elmerton.
The next day, Bruce embarked on the journey to South Elmerton.
At Sherane Bay Villa.
"Mr. Everett, I'll go with you!"
"Darcy, you've been with me for so many years! You don't have to go this time. Stay here!" Bruce patted Darcy's shoulder.
This mission was very difficult, and he was determined to sacrifice himself when necessary.
Darcy had worked for Bruce for more than ten years. Now that Darcy was finally getting married, Bruce did not want to put Darcy in danger again.
"Mr. Everett, without you, I wouldn't be where I am today. No matter what, I will take the last task."
As Darcy talked to Bruce, he walked out of the house and began to call Grace.
"Grace, we'll hold our wedding when I get back."
When Grace heard this, her heart instantly rose to her throat. "Darcy, I don't allow you to go. I don't allow you to die."
"Mrs. Everett is now in such a state. I can't leave Mr. Everett at this time."
"Why are you so stubborn? Are you going to risk your own life for your boss?
"I told you I have money to support you. You don't need to do such a dangerous job anymore."
Darcy's voice was solemn. "Stop talking!
"If you're willing to wait for me, I'll definitely come back. If you're unwilling to wait for me, then let's cancel our wedding!"
"Darcy!" Tears rolled down Grace's face.
She knew she couldn't stop him.
"Darcy, you have to promise me that you will come back safe and sound. You have to come back."
"Don't worry! I'll definitely come back."
"I see. I'll wait for you. When you get back, we'll get married."
"I love you, sweetheart."
"I love you, too, Darcy."
