"Moreover, unlike James, whose bone spurs are like sharp cones, suitable for stabbing, your claws are like five sharp daggers, actually more suitable for swinging, severing the enemy's skin, muscles and fascia, causing large-area damage. If you have enough strength, you can even tear the enemy to pieces!"

Listening to Chen Mo's explanation, Victor's eyes finally changed. He raised his hands and looked at the few nails on his left hand that he hadn't had time to trim. The naturally formed sharp tips and the slightly downward-curved arc were indeed different from the long but blunt-tipped claws of a brown bear. Although they were equally long, they were much sharper and more shrewd.

Maybe it really will be able to pierce the enemy's body directly, crush their internal organs, or tear them apart like a knife, just like Chen Mo said!

For the first time in his life, Victor no longer thought his nails were ugly. The slightly curved shape, sharp tips, and hard, thick texture made him feel wonderful, and he developed a strong expectation for the power of his nails.

"Don't trim it anymore."

Chen Mo glanced at Victor's right hand, at his trimmed, short, and thinned yellow nails, and said to Victor.

"Yes, sir!"

Victor immediately agreed.

He now hopes his clipped nails will grow back quickly, eager to test just how powerful his claws are and how much of the formidable tiger claws Chen Mo described they are.

Fortunately, his nails grow very quickly, and they will return to their original state in a few days.

Just as Victor was eagerly planning how to test the power of his claws in a few days, Chen Mo's next words surprised him.

Looking at Victor and James, Chen Mo spoke slowly with a serious expression.

"You can't stay here any longer, or you'll be discovered sooner or later."

As soon as Chen Mo finished speaking, Victor's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly spoke up.

"Sir, please don't send us away!"

James, standing next to him, was also filled with panic upon hearing Chen Mo's words. They had finally been rescued and taken in by Chen Mo, so they no longer had to run away or freeze outside. Now, if Chen Mo drove them away again, they would be back on the run, like stray dogs, living a life of constant uncertainty.

Victor was unaware of what had happened at the Howlett Manor. He only assumed that the two were still being searched for outside, and that if they were caught, they would be imprisoned as monsters, even if they didn't die, especially James, who had strange bone claws. So when he heard Chen Mo's words, Victor thought he was going to send them away and pleaded with Chen Mo anxiously.

"We can help you with the work..."

However, before he could finish speaking, Chen Mo reached out and interrupted him.

Under the anxious and uneasy gazes of Victor and James, Chen Mo looked at the two of them and spoke slowly.

"Staying in the manor any longer is definitely not an option. It's very close to the Howlett Manor, and we'll be discovered sooner or later. But I happen to be planning to leave Canada for the United States. Would you like to come with me?"

Victor and James were both taken aback. They had only thought about hiding, but they didn't expect Chen Mo to plan to leave Canada for the United States and was willing to take them with him.

Although both of them were somewhat reluctant to leave their hometown, they seemed to have no other choice. Just as Chen Mo said, if they continued to stay here, they would be discovered sooner or later, and they would have to hide every day, afraid of being seen. Moreover, without Chen Mo's protection, they might not even have enough to eat, and they might freeze or starve to death in some forgotten corner one day.

Going to United States with Chen Mo would not only allow him to escape this dangerous place, but also provide him with protection. So, after a slight hesitation, Victor quickly nodded in agreement.

"We are willing, sir!"

James was initially hesitant and conflicted, but when he heard Victor nod in agreement, his previously conflicted expression gradually hardened. Although he didn't say anything, he nodded heavily to Chen Mo.

The next morning, before the sun had risen, only a faint glimmer of light floated in the sky, and a thick morning fog enveloped the earth, making everything between heaven and earth a vast expanse of white.

A black four-wheeled carriage, pulled by two black horses, sped Mercedes-Benz through the thick fog.

In the driver's seat at the front of the carriage, a young man wrapped in a thick black woolen coat held the reins, intently staring at the road ahead shrouded in thick fog.

Two glass lanterns hung on either side of the front of the carriage, their dim yellow light illuminating the road ahead for more than ten meters along with the faint morning light.

The carriage traveled through the morning mist, the damp and slightly chilly fog hitting the young driver's face, gradually wetting his eyebrows and hair, and blowing in through the gaps in his overcoat collar, seeping into his clothes. Even though he had wrapped himself up tightly, he still couldn't help but feel a chill and involuntarily shivered.

Although the late autumn morning, shrouded in thick fog, was indeed very cold, the boy remained focused, meticulously watching the road ahead, afraid that something might go wrong.

The carriage behind the boy was very spacious, with large and comfortable seats. Through the glass windows of the carriage, two figures, one large and one small, could be clearly seen sitting inside.

The three people in this carriage were Chen Mo and his companions, who were planning to travel to the United States.

He didn't bring any of the servants or butlers from the manor with him on this trip to the United States; he only took Victor and James with him.

This isn't the Middle Ages when slavery was rampant. The servants and butlers on the estate are all free locals. It's simply unrealistic to expect them to leave their homes and go to United States with Chen Mo. Besides, these people were originally brought with him when he bought the estate, and they weren't very loyal to him. So Chen Mo never intended to take them with him.

After preparing some supplies for the journey, Chen Mo, without even using a driver, set off early in the morning with Victor and James, driving away from the manor and heading towards their destination United States.

Along the way, Victor and James took turns driving, one driving in front while the other rested in the passenger compartment. As they worked in shifts, their driving skills gradually improved, and their speed increased.

The three traveled day and night, staying in hotels or farmhouses whenever they encountered towns or villages. In the wilderness, Chen Mo had also prepared tents brought from the real world, which he took out from the luggage rack in the carriage and set up quickly. The three spent the night in the tents, eating the food and water they had brought from the manor, and thus did not suffer from hunger or cold.
