Serena's subordinates guarding the hostages was about to retreat when Arabella lunged at one of them, snatched his knife, and

plunged it decisively into the top of Chester's head.

Atop the altar, Serena chuckled as if she found Arabella's efforts futile.

"This Chester is an upgraded version from before. Attacking the top of the head is useless against them."

In short, their vulnerability wasn't there.

As the two Chester advanced with their mechanical strides towards Kenneth and Louisa, Arabella quickly rushed to their rescue.

She pushed Chester back several steps and slashed through the ropes binding her parents with the knife in her hand.

No sooner had Kenneth and Louisa been freed than three more Chesters headed towards her grandparents, and another tmade

their way to the bodyguards tied to the pillars.

Arabella couldn't possibly save them all at once.

Luckily, Stinger caught her eye and decisively cut through the ropes binding Bernard and Cornelia, pulling them to safety behind

him.

Since the Chesters were programmed to kill Bernard and the others, they wouldn't attack Stinger, assuming he was one of their

own.

And Arabella took this opportunity to run to the three bodyguards tied to the pillars, slicing through their ropes swiftly.

As Stinger and Arabella stood shoulder to shoulder, protecting everyone behind them, Serena's face twisted with surprise and

anger, "Stinger, you dare betray me??"

Stinger looked up at the girl on the altar, his voice cold, "For years, | served your father loyally, risking my life to do his bidding. But

behind closed doors, he tormented my parents, made them live lives worse than animals, and they died in disgrace. Tell me, with

whom should | settle this account??"

Serena's brows furrowed, "Is it Arabella who's been sowing discord? Telling you these things? Her words can’t be trusted."

Her father would never do such a thing.

"Her words are far more believable than yours," Stinger said, and then he made a break for the figure on the altar.

Serena furiously shouted, "If that's the case, then you all can go to hell together today!!"

She ordered the Tyrannosaurus and Nighthawk to teach Stinger a lesson, and commanded all the Chesters, "Kill them."

The eight Chesters moved as if activated, once again advancing towards Arabella and the others.

"Bella, run! I'll hold them off, please." Louisa, though terrified, clutched at Arabella's clothes, begging desperately.

Kenneth, too, tried to stand in front of his daughter, "Forget about us."

He could buy a few seconds, and in those seconds, with their darling daughter's speed, she could get far away!!

Arabella shielded them with her arms, retreating step by step like an eagle protecting her chicks.

The strength of the eight Chesters far surpassed theirs; a frontal assault was not the solution, they still needed to find their weak

spot.

If not the head, then where could it be?

The leading two Chesters swiftly aimed punches at Arabella, while the remaining six targeted Kenneth, Louisa, and the others.

Arabella was struggling to fend off the swift and fierce attacks in front of her, while also trying to save the four behind her. It was

too much to handle.

One of the Chesters grabbed Kenneth's shirt, about to lift him, when Arabella kicked out. The Chester before her seized the

opportunity, delivering a kick that sent her flying meters away, crashing to the ground.

"Bella—" Her four family members rushed towards her, but Cornelia, slower to react, was caught by a Chester.

As Arabella lay on the ground, she could finally comprehend the horrifying torment Cookie and Amos had faced before their

demise.

The kick in her stomach was several times more painful than any she'd received before, but when she saw Chester lift her

grandmother and throw her their way, Arabella still managed to spring forward at incredible speed, catching and tossing her back.

"Mom, Bella." Louisa was petrified, rushing over to them in panic.
