NovelUSAChapter 435: The wind did indeed pick up suddenly and with considerable force, but it wasn't potent enough to knock over people, especially not grown men. Even the maids who cout of the main building to greet them managed to stand firm, though their skirts fluttered wildly.
However, Marc and Terry, appearing as fragile as patients, were knocked off their feet by the gust, rolling several times on the ground. Everyone stared at Marc and Terry in astonishment, baffled by how the two head bodyguards, expected to be pillars of strength, appeared so frail and delicate.

Luckily, he was next to the car and quickly stabilized himself by leaning against it, thus avoiding the embarrassing tumble that Marc and Terry experienced.
Marc and Terry were deeply embarrassed. They had always taken pride in their elite training at Doomsday Base, yet here they were, rendered powerless. It becclear that diet was crucial. Their daily intake of pickles was evidently insufficient.

Marissa observed the two, now pale and shaken, wondering what trials they had faced that had left them so weakened.
