Daddy the Miracle Medic

Chapter 546 "Unconventional" Lachlan

Lachlan focused his gaze on the phone screen and saw that Nora, too, was bound by iron chains and lying in the back seat of a car.

Her big eyes were filled with confusion and a hint of fear. However, it was clear that she wasn't in any immediate danger, which made Lachlan breathe a sigh of relief. When he first saw Miranda earlier, he didn't see Nora at all and his heart had skipped a beat at the thought that something might have happened to his daughter.

"How about it? Have you seen her now? Can we exchange hostages?" Braxton asked coldly.

Kamryn smiled and said, "No rush. I think we can discuss some cooperation besides exchanging hostages."

"Cooperation!" Braxton was taken aback.

Kevin stared blankly and chuckled, "Damn, what's there to cooperate with you guys? Huh?"

"Of course, there is!" Kamryn spoke confidently, according to his original plan. "In fact, there are no irreconcilable conflicts between our sides, right? You're targeting Lachlan just because he broke the leg of an insignificant person!"All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

"Insignificant?" Braxton raised an eyebrow.

"That's right! To experts of your level, that person should be considered insignificant. As far as I know, the purpose of your visit this time is to explore the Enigma Ruins. And who knows what kind of danger lies within this site. Why don't we temporarily set aside this insignificant conflict and join forces to investigate? You all understand the principle that strength in numbers is crucial when facing unknown dangers, don't you?" Kamryn said in a deep voice.

As Kamryn's words fell, a hint of interest appeared on the faces of Braxton, Kevin, and the others.

"Heh, you guys wiped out the Cobra Syndicate, right? And you captured Colt. Now you want to talk about cooperation with us? Besides, do you even have the qualifications to cooperate with us? What kind of strength do you possess?" Kevin sniffed and asked maliciously.

Kamryn frowned at his words, pondered for a moment, and then said, "As a condition for cooperation, I can promise that after this is over, we will release the imprisoned members of the Cobra Syndicate. As for strength, I possess power close to a Golden Core expert, and Phoebe, the young master of the Hudpids Sect, is a Golden Core expert. Do we have the qualifications to cooperate with you?"

"Is that so? This girl is also a Golden Core expert? Hudpids Sect? Tsk tsk..." Kevin smirked as he looked at Phoebe, showing great interest.

Braxton and the others temporarily put aside their overly excited minds and the overly anxious Kevin. After exchanging glances, they nodded slightly. They had come from afar primarily for the Enigma Ruins. Compared to that, even the Cobra Syndicate was insignificant to experts of their level. As for the conflict between Xander and Lachlan... it seemed even less worth mentioning now. Xander himself was directly killed by Kevin, just because he found him annoying.

When facing the unknown ruins, having a few more powerful allies was indeed worth considering.

"Cooperation is possible, but once we discover any cultivation resources or opportunities within the Enigma Ruins, we will take seventy percent!" Braxton proposed the final condition after contemplating for a long time.

Upon hearing this, Kamryn furrowed his brow.

"Hmph, you don't need to feel unbalanced! I'll tell you, all five of us are Golden Core experts!" Braxton snorted coldly, displaying his dominance.

Hearing this, the expressions of the people on this side changed.

They had initially thought that only Kevin, the leader, was a mid-level Golden Core expert. But all five of them were?

In the face of five Golden Core experts, if cooperation failed, they would be unable to contend!

Even Phoebe alone, despite her advanced attributes, wouldn't stand a chance against a 1v5 battle.

With these thoughts in mind, Kamryn took a deep breath and nodded, saying, "Alright, seventy percent it is."

"Then let's exchange hostages, shall we?"

"Kevin!" Braxton spoke and gestured to Kevin.

Kevin snorted coldly, glanced at Lachlan once more, and finally unlocked Miranda's chains.

"Go! Take it step by step and walk slowly!" Braxton coldly ordered Miranda.

On the other side, Lachlan's eyes flickered for a moment, and he also released Colt.

"Go!"

Colt's heart leaped with joy upon hearing this and he began to walk as well.

The two hostages from each side started walking slowly towards their respective groups, maintaining a steady pace. At this moment, everyone's nerves were tense. This hostage exchange represented the sincerity of cooperation between the two sides.

After a dozen breaths, Miranda and Colt passed each other.

At that very moment, both Lachlan and the middle-aged woman with a rough face moved simultaneously.

Swish!

Lachlan, who was originally standing there, turned into a blur without any warning and rushed towards Miranda.

On the other side, the middle-aged woman with prominent facial features also charged at Colt at full speed.

In that instant, Lachlan pushed his speed to the limit. His body transformed into a streak of lightning emitting a blue electric glow. The thunder attribute within his body erupted with full force, making him at least thirty percent faster than the middle-aged woman.

"Lachlan..."

Miranda felt a blur before her eyes, and a pair of warm hands grabbed her wrist. Her previously anxious heart suddenly calmed down in an instant. All that remained was guilt towards Lachlan...

However, Lachlan didn't have time to

say anything to Miranda. After

grabbing her wrist, his hand

immediately exerted a relatively

gentle force, pushing her awanet

towards Kamryn, Phoebe, and the others.

Lachlan himself didn't pause for a moment and continued to charge towards Colt.

"Damn it!"

The middle-aged woman, who was still five meters away from Colt, had a sudden change in her expression and angrily cursed.

Kevin, Braxton, and the others showed a mix of surprise and anger.

Kamryn, Phoebe, and the rest were also taken aback. No one had expected Lachlan to act in this way!

Was he not only trying to save Miranda but also aiming to regain control of Colt as a hostage?

One had to admit that it was quite a cost-effective move.

But did he have the strength to do it?

After all, he was facing a Golden Core expert.

This action was akin to snatching food from the tiger's mouth!

"Get lost!"

In the next instant, Lachlan had already grabbed Colt. As he pulled him towards his own body, he threw a punch towards the middle-aged woman.

The middle-aged woman snorted coldly and slapped her palm towards Lachlan.

Boom!

With a muffled sound, a shocking scene unfolded.

The middle-aged woman groaned and was actually blasted back by Lachlan's punch.
