Face-Slapping System-Chapter 116 Escape

In an abandoned building a few minutes away from the cargo dock site.

Roland and Stacey sat on the ground with their backs facing each other.

Beside them were four people who had their mouths wrapped in clothing to prevent them from making any kind of noise.

The four of them were Captain Coleman, his assistant, the cook as well as the cook's assistant.

When Scar-face said that he had some hostage, Roland actually thought that it was Denis or Martin.

A week ago, Roland promised that he would give Captain Coleman and the other two a permanent job by working for him to maintain the yacht's condition while he was not using it.

They must have returned a day or two earlier which caused them to get captured by this gang of ruffians who came out of nowhere.

Looking around, Roland also noticed a familiar figure, guarding the entrance of the abandoned building along with four others.

Of course, it was no other than the talented instigator who he met a week ago.

Roland guessed that he might be doing this out of revenge to him.

As for Scar-face and the others' motives, after observing around, Roland also guessed that they must have just kidnapped them for money.

Roland was already aware that as time went by, as his wealth gradually grew, the danger it accompanied would also grow along with it.

As they say, with great power comes great responsibility, and with great wealth comes great danger as well.

It was not a wonder why multi billionaires and even just millionaires would always get accompanied by their security guards no matter where they go.

He even heard that some of them had security personnel accompany them while taking a bath. 𝒇𝘳𝐞𝚎𝓌𝑒𝑏𝒏𝑜𝙫ℯl.c𝚘𝒎

While some important figures might insist of not having a guard around them, it could not be denied that their life was in constant danger if they ever appeared in public carelessly.

As for Roland, with his strong physique, and soul, he was confident of protecting himself from sudden danger.

However, the same could not be said towards the people around him.

This has become a valuable lesson for him, and right at this moment, he was already thinking of ways not to repeat the same mistake for the second time.

The thought of hiring security guards for the people around him crossed his mind.

Right now, only Captain Coleman and the others got kidnapped. What if something like this happens to Stacey as well? Roland does not dare to imagine.

However, that was something he would have to consider in the future.

Right now, he must escape and take the others to safety first.

The abandoned buildings that they were in were not huge. Roland guessed that it might be a previous storage building of a small shipping company.

Right now, the talented instigator as well as the other four were talking with each other.

There was about ten meters distance between them and Roland, and with his inhumane speed, Roland should be able to sprint there in a second and take the four of them down in one go.

He observed their actions and body for a few minutes and after noting that they don't have any guns, Roland became confident at what he was about to do.

Roland closed his eyes and focused his attention outside of the building. His powerful hearing allowed him to barely hear any movements outside. He realized that there were another four men guarding outside.

From that alone, Roland was able to tell that the Scar-face gang was not something to be trifled with.

Including the party that confronted them earlier, he estimated that there should be around forty or fifty of them in total.

Facing such a group of dangerous individuals with guns was not ideal.

The best action should be to call the cops and let them handle the rest.

However, considering the gang's size and how they were still able to roam around, Roland guessed that they might have some connections supporting them behind the scenes.

Roland opted that option out for now. Anyways, they don't have any available phone anyways as Stacey managed to hide her phone and his phone the moment she was taken outside of the yacht.

There were some important pictures in there so they must not let anyone see it. Stacey's action were just right, in his opinion.

Right now, Roland and Stacey's hands were tied neatly with a thick rope.

However, Roland's strength has already surpassed human limits after he consumed the level 2 potions.

The rope that was supposed to even hold a cow was easily ripped into with his great strength.

Not waiting for the five people to notice the anomaly, Roland sprinted and arrived in front of them in an instant.

One of them only felt a breeze coming before his throat was struck by Roland's fist. Roland did not hold back too much, the man ended up clutching his throat as he grasped for breath.

Roland did not stop his actions and attacked the second one.

His actions were precise and calculated, one move, one man would go down.

Roland dashed and arrived in front of the talented instigator.

A cold glint appeared on Roland's as his fist traveled with extreme speed, striking the man's throat with great strength.

The man's eyes immediately rolled back as his body began to slumped towards the ground.

The four other people sprawled to the ground, with their throat struck by such a massive force, they could only wiggle around like a worm, they could not even scream if the wanted to.

However, not wanting to see their suffering, Roland struck a point below their ears and allowed them to faint along with the talented instigator.

With that, Roland subdued five men in total in a matter of seconds.

Stacey did not even notice that Roland was no longer leaning against her back, and when she realized it, five continuous thuds were already heard.

When she looked at the source of the sound, all she saw was five men sprawling beneath Roland's feet.

The mere scene excited her to no end, the thought of Roland being a hidden powerful martial artist ran across her mind multiple times before she was awoken by Roland's touch, who had unknowingly arrived in front of her in an instant.

"Are you alright?" Roland asked as he caressed Stacey's cheeks.

Stacey nodded her head with a soft humm. Roland then began to untie her hands as both of them worked together to untie Captain Coleman and the others.

It was only now that Captain Coleman and the others woke up. They have actually been captured for an entire day already. There were bruises on their face as well as some parts of their body. It was apparent that the kidnapping did not go smoothly either.

Noticing them, Roland gave them a hush signal, before he told them to hide first.

Fortunately, the abandoned building was not that well-lit, and only a single bulb illuminated the entire room.

After hiding them in the safe corner, Roland went over to the guys he knocked out and searched their body for weapons.

Unfortunately, all he got from them was some wooden bats and nothing else, not even a knife.

In truth, Roland actually doesn't need any weapon to fight the enemies outside. However, he thought that it would not hurt him getting some kind of weapon either.

Taking one of the bats, Roland creeped towards the door, and opened an inch gap on it slowly as he began to scan the situation outside.

The outside was also not well-lit, however, with Roland's enhanced eyesight, someone like this was no longer a problem to him at all.

Roland observed a few more minutes before he decided to take action.

It was good that the surroundings were not well-lit, he thought that he could use the darkness to his advantage.

After counting, Roland realized that there were a total of ten men outside of the abandoned building right now.

Out of the ten of them, two have guns hidden under their shirts, while the remaining have weapons such as bats and metal bars, like the one he was currently carrying.

Right now, they were gathered around the entrance of the abandoned building. From the looks of it, a group of them seemed to be playing some card game to kill their boredom.

After planning his actions, Roland opened the abandoned building's door slowly, as his figure began to blend in the dark.

With his great control over his body, Roland sneaked away like a ghost, not even the sound of footsteps could be heard as Roland controlled his footsteps to make him as light as possible.

His first target was the farthest guy from the group. Right now, he was standing alone in a post, seemingly talking to someone over the phone.

The man was still smiling with great relish, not knowing that Roland had already creeped behind him. 𝒇𝚛e𝘦wℯ𝑏𝓃𝑜νℯ𝒍.co𝗺

Roland did not intend to listen to their conversation, instead, he immediately took action by striking the man's throat with precise strength.

The man's body slumped towards the cold ground along with his phone. However, Roland was able to catch both of them in time as he dragged the fainted body away from the light.
