The Elite Math Tournament site was located on the outskirts, and with the heavy rain, the roads should've been pretty empty. However, as they drew closer to the exam site, the traffic appeared to intensify.
They could see the site just after crossing the large suspension bridge, but as their car drove onto the bridge, something strange happened. The vehicles that had been driving normally suddenly turned around and began encircling their car.
They were trapped.
Several black sedans behind them also sped up, blocking their rear escape route.
A few men stepped out of the cars. They were dressed in black tank tops, their bodies covered in tattoos and bulging muscles. The rain pounded down on them, but it seemed like they didn't even notice, standing there like menacing beasts.
Percy cursed under his breath, "Damn it! They really are targeting me!"
Scarlett's expression turned serious. "There are eight cars and sixteen people. Looks like they're all thugs."
Percy glanced at his phone. "Mr. Sawyer's calling. He's already at the tournament site."
Scarlett nodded. "Don't panic. We still have half an hour."
"Who's panicking?" Percy scoffed. "I'm just telling you, Mr. Sawyer's already there."
"Mr. Percy, Ms. Quinn, you should head to the site first. I'll handle these people," Hank suggested.
Percy sneered. "Your fighting skills might be enough to handle a couple of them, but with this many, you'll end up getting yourself killed!"
His mind raced as he quickly came up with a plan. "Alright, since they're after me, I'll get out of the car and deal with them."
"Hank, take Scarlett to the Elite Math Tournament site. If the road's blocked, just smash through and get her through."
"No way!" Scarlett immediately rejected the idea. "I can't leave you here to take this risk alone."
Percy felt a warmth in his chest but tried to brush it off with a carefree smile. "Don't worry. I've got this! These guys are no match for me. You focus on the exam!
