She Outshines Them All (Athena and Matthew)

Chapter 175

The rebel leader said. "You must have explosives or grenades on you, right? They're afraid of those. If you blow

up a couple, they'll scatter." Matthew replied, "I don't trust you. First, tellwhere the safe, then I'll consider

saving you."

As he spoke, he surveyed the surroundings.

There were 17 cannibals in total.

and the rebel leader both both felt

t a sinking sensation in their hearts, realizing things had gotten complicated.

The tribal leader pointed at Matthew, saying in Maiselish, "Raise your hands and throw over your backpack. No

funny business, or we'll kill you right now." Matthew raised his hand bent down to grab his backpack, and tossed

it to the tribal leader.

Upon receiving the backpack, the tribal leader rummaged through it, frowning. "Why is it empty?"

Matthew replied. Tm very wealthy. If you letgo, | can give you everything you want"

"This is our territory. Outsiders must not chere, the tribal leader declared. "According to our tribe's rules, if

an outsider enters, they must be eaten, or else we'll face divine punishment He then ordered, "Capture him."

Several cannibals sheathed their bows and spears and approached Matthew.

As t they closed in, blocking his escape, Matthew suddenly shouted in Mandarin, "Guardian, attack the ones

surrounding me."

The "Guardian' sprang into action, shooting out several tranquilizer darts at the encircling cannibals.

Matthew swiftly rolled to o the side, retrieving his AK-47 from behind the rock, and opened fire or the remaining

cannibals.

He hit nearly every shot, a marksman at heart.

However, his injured fingers and wounds affected his accuracy.

He didn't strike any fatal blows, merely injuring a few.

The cannibals took cover behind trees, rocks, and other obstacles, occasionally shooting at him.

Matthew returned fire when he could.

Before long, his AK-17 was out of bullets.

The "Guardian" had exhausted its tranquilizer darts, losing its offensive capability.

Matthew pulled out the Desert Eagle Semi-automatic pistol, knife, and a vial of supplies, seeking refuge behind a

large tree. The standoff continued.

The tribal leader shouted in Maiselish, "Your gun can't hold many bullets. We can wait until you run out before

capturing you."

He then pulled the rebel leader in front of him as a shield, slowly advancing toward Matthew.

The rebel leader's expression changed. "Matthew, only | know where the safe is hidden. If | die, you won't get

anything." leader laughed. "We just need to search near where we caught you, and we'll surely find it.

Matthew peeked out, decisively pulling the trigger and shooting the rebel leader dead.

He immediately turned and ran.

The "Guardian" deployed its wings and followed closely behind him

"Chase him!" The tribal leader abandoned the rebel leader and led the pursuit after Matthew.

One hour later, Matthew found himself at a lake 100 feet wide, with no escape in sight.

The "Guardian' warned, "There are crocodiles in the water. As long as you can swim faster than them, they won't

harm your Matthew fell silent.

Perhaps he could grab one of the cannibals, injure him, and toss him into the lake to distract the crocodiles.

He turned to look back, and his heart sank again.

The number of cannibals had increased, now over twenty

Matthew was injured, and he wondered if he could capture one cannibal and jump into the lake to swim to the

other side. But he had to.

He promised to meet Athena for dinner.

Just then, the "Guardian" alerted, "Three o'clock! Incoming attack!"

Without thinking, Matthew raised his hand and turned, firing in that direction.

But Matthew was out of bullets.

He pulled out a round, black object from his pocket, shouting. "Cany closer, and F'll blow you all up!"

The cannibals froze, nervously watching him.

The tribal leader yelled, "Everyone-spread out! Use arrows and spears against him!"

Matthew instantly threw the object at the leader, then charged toward the lake, ready to jump in.

"Kill him quickly. We mustn't let him escape!" the cannibals shouted wildly, chasing after Matthew, hurling bows,

spears, and sharp stones.

Without the protection of his backpack and body armor, Matthew was struck by an arrow and fell to the ground.

The cannibals rushed in, preparing to deal the final blow.

So focused on eliminating the intruder, they didn't notice that the helicopter was already flying low, its door

A mysterious figure appeared at the door, holding a submachine gun and firing wildly at them.

The tribal leader hid behind a tree, waving his arms and shouting something.

Matthew understood his words. "That 'metal bird’ can only land on flat ground. It can't stop here. Don't be afraid.

Struggling. Matthew climbed to his feet, leaned against a tree, squinting up at the helicopter.

"Who was coming?’ he thought.

Then he saw a figure leaping from the helicopter, one hand holding onto a rope, the other clutching a

submachine gun, shooting down at the cannibals as they tried to escape. The person looked so cool.
