Chapter: 2690
Charlie Wade and He Zhiqiu rushed back to Jinling without a break, while Hamid hurried back to his base in northern Syria. His subordinates were confused, discussing why Hamid suddenly decided to send out a hostage. Along with the female hostage, there was also a man none of them recognized. They wondered where he came from and why he was with Hamid. It was strange for someone unknown to appear in such a heavily guarded military area.
After Hamid left, his men were eager to find out what had just happened. Hamid’s deputy went to the cellar to ask questions, but Faisal and his loyal followers, who supported Charlie Wade, had taken control of the narrow entrance. They secured the iron gate, making it impossible for anyone to get in. The deputy was surprised by Faisal’s betrayal. In a panic, he considered using a bomb but realized that there were seven hostages inside who could be exchanged for ransom. He decided against it.
Still, he knew that the cellar was a dead end. As long as he guarded the exit, Faisal would eventually surrender. He quickly gathered nearly a hundred armed troops in the yard, aiming their weapons at the cellar’s exit, ready to subdue anyone who tried to come out.
At that moment, a helicopter roared overhead, making everyone tense. They recognized it as the same helicopter that Commander Hamid had just used. But no one knew what would happen next.
Commander Hamid stepped off the plane after it landed. A helicopter was slowly descending nearby. When Hamid’s deputy saw the helicopter approaching, he quickly shouted to the nearby soldiers, “Everyone, clear the area for the helicopter to land!”
The soldiers, who had previously been packed tightly in the yard, quickly moved aside, creating enough space for the helicopter. It touched down gently moments later.
As soon as the plane landed, the door swung open, and Hamid jumped out. He noticed the commotion and asked, “What’s going on?”
The deputy rushed over, looking concerned. “Commander! Where have you been? Who were those two people earlier?”
Hamid replied calmly, “They are my friends. No need to ask more about them.”
The deputy nodded, sensing it was best not to push further. He quickly added, “Commander, Faisal and the others have defected! They’re in the cellar, ready to fight back! If you give the order, I can have the door blown open and we can capture them!”
Hamid shook his head. “No need! Faisal is with me. Don’t make any assumptions!” He then headed toward the cellar entrance.
Suddenly, the deputy realized something and exclaimed, “Commander, what about your legs…?”
Hamid smiled and said, “You’re wondering why my legs are fine now?”
The deputy nodded, and the soldiers around them looked astonished. They noticed that Hamid’s left leg, which had once been injured, now appeared completely normal. Curiosity filled the air as they wondered what had happened.
Hamid grinned and explained, “A benefactor gave me a special medicine that healed my leg. From now on…”
“From now on, Hamid will never be a lame man again!”
The soldiers nearby were shocked. A magic medicine that could heal a leg that was thought to be permanently damaged?
