Angola Prison, located in the State of Louisiana, was the most notorious prison in the world. The average prison sentence for prisoners here was 88 years.
At this moment, the heavy iron gate of the prison opened slowly, and a man in his late twenties walked out slowly with a small leather suitcase.
The iron door closed again, completely separating the freedom of the outside world from the desperate darkness inside the prison.
The man breathed in the air of freedom and took a step forward with a smile on his face.
The next moment, a series of orderly footsteps sounded from both sides of the winding jungle path.
Figures in camouflage uniforms rushed out of the forest. Each of them was fully armed with an automatic rifle in their hands.
The man's eyes focused. His sapphire-like eyes seemed to glow under the sunlight that shone through the forest leaves.
In the blink of an eye, the man who had just walked out of Angola Prison was surrounded by dozens of burly men.
"You're Daniel Hoyd?"
A middle-aged man with a full beard strode towards him, his body looked as strong as a bear.
"I'm Daniel Hoyd. What's the matter? What's wrong?" Daniel asked, still calm and composed in front of this group of fierce and fully armed men.
"Polar bear Mercenary Corps. Captain Samuel Martin, is here to take you home."
Samuel Martin saluted Daniel Hoyd, but his tone was cold.
"Home?"
Daniel sneered as he looked at Samuel with a mocking expression.
"I have nothing to do with the Hoyd family."
Hearing this, Samuel's expression turned serious, and he frowned.
"Mr. Hoyd, your last name is an honor that will accompany you for life. Every member of the Hoyd family has bathed in the glory of that name and will fight for the glory of the Hoyd family for the rest of their lives. "
"The glory of the Hoyd family is to send me to this prison?"
Daniel grinned and pointed at the Angola Prison behind him, which still reeked of blood.
A bloody bullfight had just ended in the prison. People only needed to pay a few dozen dollars to enter Angola Prison to watch a life-and-death duel between a prisoner and a strong bull in an octagonal cage.
"Mr. Hoyd, we're only following your father's orders. I hope you can cooperate with us," Samuel said coldly, unmoved by Daniel's words.
"What if I don't cooperate?"
Daniel squinted his eyes slightly, a hint of playfulness in his eyes.
"I don't think it's hard for you to guess the consequences."
Without hesitation, Samuel took out the rifle on his back, pulled the bolt, and loaded the bullet.
"Don't worry, there are blank bullets in here. You won't die at the entrance of Angola Prison. The order we received was to let you return to Angola Prison alive. Of course, it's only restricted to your being alive.
That's why I advise you not to put up any unnecessary resistance. Mr. Hoyd, I know what you're worried about. However, since your father asked me to bring you back to the clan, it means that he has the intention to forgive you. Perhaps, if you kneel and beg for forgiveness, he will let you become a true member of the Hoyd family with unlimited power again. "
The Hoyd family was one of the twelve richest and most powerful magnates in the country. They controlled the various industries in the nation and were the true controllers of this country.
However, when Daniel Hoyd heard that he had a chance of becoming a member of the Hoyd family again, he was not happy at all. Instead, he was filled with rage.
"Beg for his forgiveness? He's the one who committed the crime!"
Daniel's face was contorted in extreme anger. He clenched his fists tightly, and the blood vessels on his arms bulged.
Seven years ago, he had returned to his family after graduating from West Point Military Academy two years earlier, only to receive a piece of bad news.
His mother had passed away.
No one told him about his mother's death, and he didn't even have time to attend her funeral.
Daniel went around asking about his mother's death, but everyone kept it a secret.
After three years of bitter searching for the truth, he finally got a result that stunned him.
His mother was tortured to death by his father because she was unhappy with his father bringing a mistress home.
On the day that Daniel found out the truth, he was locked up in Angola Prison under false charges.
Four years passed, and he was finally released from prison.
"Mr. Daniel Hoyd, I think four years of prison life should be enough to make you a lot soberer. What is evil and good have always been the rules set by the strong."
Samuel grinned as if he was laughing at Daniel's overconfidence and naivety.
"Yes, the reason why I was released from prison this time was to write the rules that belong to justice and me," Daniel said in a deep voice, his eyes seemed to be emitting cold air.
This sentence made Samuel laugh as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
"Your father is one of the real rulers of this country. Do you understand what that means? It's a pity that four years of prison life didn't make you understand this, but I don't have time to talk to you now. I'll give you one last warning. Come with us obediently, or I'll break your legs and take you back to the family."
The Polar bear Army was the most vicious hound of the Hoyd family. Their scope of activity was not limited to this country, but to protect the interests of the Hoyd family on a global scale.
The hands of every member of the Polar bear Corps were stained with blood, and Daniel did not doubt that they would dare to make a move on him.
If his father gave the order, they would not hesitate to execute it even if they were asked to wave their Sickles at innocent civilians.
"Sooner or later, I'll make Dylan pay for his sins. But now, you should pay off a portion of the interest for him!"
Daniel shouted coldly as he threw a punch. "Die!"
Before the members of the Polar Bear Mercenary Corps could react, Samuel, who weighed 180 to 190 pounds, flew out and spat out a large mouthful of blood in the air.
His body crashed heavily onto the ground, causing the ground to tremble slightly.
Samuel stared at Daniel in disbelief. The punch from Daniel made him feel like he had been hit by a truck.
The mercenaries finally came back to their senses. They raised their guns and pointed the dark muzzles at Daniel.
"Shoot! Break every bone in his body and bring him back to the family with hardly any breath left!"
Samuel's teeth were all stained red as he shouted.
"Who would dare!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a thunderous roar sounded.
Immediately after, the sound of artillery bombardment could be heard!
A cannonball landed in the forest behind them, flipping over a large tree. The flames and soil were sent flying.
The assault helicopters swooped down from the banks of the Mississippi and hovered over their heads.
The loaded heavy machine guns spat out sparks, and the bullets slanted on the ground, intimidating the Polar Bear mercenaries and making them not move.
The door of the assault helicopter opened, and ropes dropped down. Strong soldiers slid down the ropes and surrounded the Polar Bear Mercenary Corps in a three-three tactical team with rifles.
Finally, a middle-aged man jumped out of the helicopter.
The two bright stars on his shoulders made the members of the Polar Bear Mercenary Corps narrow their eyes.
This middle-aged man was a two-star Major General!
"Sir, Lucas Smith reporting for duty!"
Lucas Smith shouted and saluted Daniel.
