The Shelter Game: Me, Starting with a Tenfold Drop Rate

Just as the battle betwe Irving and Elvis was nearing its d, Joseph's reinforcemts finally arrived at the Bevolt Sanatorium.

Seeing his fully armed subordinates arrive, Joseph finally felt a sse of relief.

"Hurry up and op the main gate of the sanatorium! The most important thing you need to do now is rush into the ward and rescue my father!" Joseph put on a very anxious expression.

"Vicky, that ungrateful daughter, somehow found a petty thug. This thug actually has some skills and has tak Donald and Elvis hostage. If you don't act quickly, this thug might cause irreversible harm to Donald's health! You must act immediately!"

Joseph's subordinates were visibly shocked upon hearing this. They hadn't expected such a thing to happ in a well-guarded and prestigious place like the Bevolt Sanatorium.

However, every one of them had great respect for Donald. As the former leader of Ocean Group and its spiritual figurehead, Donald had to be rescued immediately.

"Chairman, I understand! I will lead my team into the ward right away! Shouldn't you go to a safer place?" A young man clad in a bulletproof vest and holding an assault rifle ran up to Joseph and spoke to him in a calm tone.

Joseph recognized the young man in front of him. His name was Bjamin, the deputy manager of Ocean Group's Security Departmt and a candidate for the proxy of the family guild that Ocean Group was planning.

"I must stay here until my father is rescued! Don't worry about me, just take action quickly! My father's safety is the most important thing!"

Urged by Joseph, Bjamin nodded and th waved to his subordinates. Under Bjamin's lead, an elite squad from Ocean Group's Security Departmt advanced quickly towards Irving's location in a highly professional formation.

Joseph glanced at the backs of the squad led by Bjamin, th turned his gaze towards the other doctors in the sanatorium.

"Now that the gate is op, you should leave quickly. The situation here is still quite dangerous." Joseph's tone was very gtle as he spoke.

The other doctors in the sanatorium looked very grateful upon hearing his words.

"Thank you, Chairman! We will leave as soon as possible!"

"Chairman, you should also go to a safer place!"

After seeing the doctors off, Joseph signaled to his secretary who was standing not far away. The secretary quickly came to Joseph's side, and Joseph lowered his voice, saying, "None of these doctors can be allowed to leave! Find someone to deal with all of them immediately."

A flash of surprise crossed the secretary's eyes, but his expression quickly returned to calm. As Joseph's secretary, he was well-acquainted with Joseph's methods. Typically, Joseph would take a thorough, eliminative approach wh dealing with pottial threats.

The secretary also understood one fundamtal truth: to achieve great things, one must be ruthless and devoid of unnecessary compassion. Sometimes, if a task isn't carried out thoroughly, it could lead to the failure of the tire deavor. Not every situation offers a second chance. Therefore, the secretary was determined to cooperate with Joseph.

If these doctors were allowed to leave, they might pose a threat to Joseph. Naturally, Joseph would never let these doctors go.

JAfter all, among these doctors, some had overheard the quarrel betwe the three Tang family members in Donald's ward. If these doctors were to disclose what they knew, Joseph's position within Ocean Group would be jeopardized.

Ocean Group wasn't solely controlled by Donald and his descdants. There were other branches of the Tang family within the company. Joseph had to contd with Vicky's pottial threat on one hand, and on the other, suppress the other branches of the Tang family within Ocean Group.

After the secretary left, Joseph finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"The ultimate victor will still be me! My dear niece, you are in no position to fight me. Ev if you align yourself with that little brat Irving, you will never be able to defeat me."

Joseph's scheme was now fully revealed. He hoped that the battle betwe Bjamin and Irving would be extremely intse. This way, the newly-recovered Donald might be agitated once again. If Donald were to unfortunately pass away, no matter what Vicky and Irving said, they wouldn't be able to gain others' trust. Joseph would th have a legitimate reason to take full control of Ocean Group.

Joseph had no inttion of leaving; he planned to stay in the sanatorium to monitor everything.

As an elite warrior, Bjamin immediately ssed the presce of Irving and Elvis and realized that these two were not easy to defeat. Therefore, Bjamin quickly halted, extded his hand to signal his team to retreat.

Bjamin himself lightly leaped into another corridor, making his way a to the ward where Donald and Vicky were.

"Chairman, are you alright? I am here on the orders of the Chairman to rescue you," Bjamin said softly upon seeing the old Chairman.

Vicky's expression showed a trace of panic, as she had se Bjamin before and had heard rumors of his capabilities.

Donald, lying on the bed, stared at Bjamin for a while before speaking slowly.

"He really st you? What other instructions did he give you?"

"Old Chairman, the Chairman ordered me to sure your safety and eliminate those who have tak you hostage."

"Hostage-takers?! The ones holding me hostage are Elvis and my unfilial son!"

Donald's words left Bjamin utterly shocked. Bjamin looked up at Donald and th at Vicky beside him. He couldn't understand why this situation had aris.

"Young man, since you recognize me, it means you've be working at Ocean Group. You will follow my orders, won't you?" Donald asked Bjamin in a slightly stern tone.

Bjamin nodded. Though he had be promoted by Joseph, he was ultimately an employee of Ocean Group. Moreover, wh he first joined Ocean Group, it was still under Donald's control.

"Old Chairman, I will naturally follow your orders!"

"Alright, now go support that young man in the front! Help him take down the crazed Elvis! Th have your subordinates come over to protect me."

After receiving Donald's orders, Bjamin first used his walkie-talkie to call all his subordinates over.

"Everyone, converge on my position now. Your job is to protect the old Chairman and follow his orders! I'm going to deal with the battle over there!"

After issuing the necessary commands, Bjamin nodded to Donald and th dashed out of the ward, joining the fray.

At this momt, Irving had the upper hand in his battle with Elvis. However, Elvis was using a series of peculiar spells. These spells slowed Irving's movemts and allowed Elvis to keep retreating.

"You don't really think you can stop me with these spells, do you? Donald already knows you're colluding with Joseph. Ev if you escape now, you won't be able to avoid the Smith family's pursuit."

Irving aimed to disrupt Elvis's focus with his words. However, Elvis wasn't swayed. He still hoped to escape through his own efforts.

Elvis had maneuvered his shadow toward a wall of the sanatorium. As long as part of his shadow passed through the wall, he could successfully escape.

At that momt, a figure clad in a black bulletproof suit appeared not far from Elvis and Irving. The instant this figure appeared, he raised a custom-made submachine gun.

The gun made no sound as it fired, but it unleashed a barrage of special bullets. As soon as these bullets hit the shadows created by Elvis's spells, they formed one hole after another in the shadows.

Elvis let out a howl of pain.

It was evidt that Bjamin's attack had inflicted significant damage on Elvis.

Although Irving didn't know who this sudd arrival was, he could at least be sure that, for the momt, this person was on his side.

Seizing the opportunity, Irving cast a Fireball spell. A fierce fireball materialized and shot toward the direction of Elvis's shadow.

This time, Elvis had no way to dodge. After suffering consecutive heavy blows, he was no longer capable of fighting.

Ultimately, the shadow that Elvis had become was utterly torn to pieces by the blazing fireball.

Irving had finally defeated Elvis.

After the battle ded, Irving turned his gaze toward the figure in the black bulletproof suit.

"Who are you? Why did you assist me in the fight?"

"I'm Bjamin, Deputy Manager of Ocean Group's Security Departmt and Captain of Ocean Group's Special Assault Team," Bjamin introduced himself first.

Upon hearing Bjamin's title, Irving instinctively prepared for another fight because he deduced that Bjamin had appeared due to Joseph's summons.

Having never countered Bjamin before, it was unclear how strong he was. However, if Bjamin truly turned out to be an emy, a confrontation would be inevitable. Naturally, Irving was quite confidt in his own abilities.

However, after waiting for a while, Bjamin made no further moves.

"I am here and provided assistance on the orders of the old Chairman," Bjamin said in a cold tone.
