Chapter 1696Selon quickly found himself in retreat, losing strength with each passing moment.Seeing an opportunity, the martial art expert raised his dagger and thrust it toward Selon's chest.'I'm so screwed.'Just as Selon resigned himself to his fate, a slender hand reached out from nowhere and deflected the attack.Selon turned his head, only to see a stranger's face."Are you okay?" the stranger asked.The voice was familiar enough for him to recognize."Alkaid!" he cried out, both shocked and relieved."Yeah, it's me," she replied.It was indeed Alkaid in disguise.Relieved to see her safe, Selon said quickly, "I'm fine."Alkaid hummed, but the expert charged up once again."Be careful!" Selon shouted.Alkaid's expression turned serious as she engaged the attacker.Although she was not as strong as Chester or Blackrose, she faced off her opponent head-on.Selon watched the close fight, worried about her safety.The martial art expert, aware of his disadvantage,
Chapter 1697Alkaid subconsciously shielded Selon behind her and stared fiercely at the fighters in front of her. In the meanwhile, she was mentally estimating how long it would take to take them down.Selon looked at her and saw her grim face. He was dumbfounded.In his memory, Alkaid was a talkative girl with a bright and bubbly personality. He had rarely seen her so serious.He didn't want to see her like this.Thinking about it, Selon felt guilty.If it wasn't for protecting him, she didn't have to put herself in danger, even though it was her job."Get out of here when you get a chance. Don't worry about me."Right after that, Alkaid rushed forward and fought the fighters.Selon didn't want to run away on his own. He thought that since they arrived at the base together, they had to leave together.Even though Alkaid was an excellent fighter, she was alone. She was getting more and more wounds.Selon's heart tensed up. Just as he was about to aid her, there were footstep
Chapter 1698It was in the middle of the night, and the base was still in chaos.Molly suddenly woke up.She sat up languidly and gazed outside for a while. When she became more awake, she got up and went downstairs.As the current situation was chaotic, she couldn’t sleep soundly even though she knew that Sean could handle everything.Having lots of dreams, she didn’t sleep deeply.She stepped to the living room soon.Sean didn't sleep. Leaning against the sofa, he was taking stock of the situation.Hearing footsteps, he slowly turned his head and asked, "Honey, why did you wake up?""Well, I can't sleep well since so many things have happened," Molly answered truthfully, who poured a glass of water and handed it to Sean.Sean took it and took a sip.Molly stared at him. Noticing that he was tired, she couldn’t help letting out a small sigh. "What's the situation now?""I’ve been told that Selon has been taken out." Sean placed down the glass and pulled Molly into his arms
Chapter 1699All of a sudden, the pungent smell of blood dispersed in the air. 001 and his team members all felt a sharp pain in their shoulders and legs. They were nailed to the spot but still wanted to struggle. However, Blackrose shouted in a cold tone, "If you want to die, then move, and I'll see your head fall." They became stiff and felt as if there was something cold against their necks at the same time. 001 subconsciously lowered his eyes and clearly saw a cold thing swaying in front of his eyes. No one dared to move, and a rumor flashed through their minds. The five martial art masters of the Grandset all have their own skills and hidden weapons, and Blackrose's hidden weapon was a silver string. The silver string was polished with expensive fine iron and forged by the best weapons shop in the Grandset. Blackrose didn’t often use this string, but once she used it, some people would die. Everyone’s body was filled with coldness, like falling into an ice cellar
Chapter 1700Which part had gone wrong?Blackrose couldn't fathom how, with the vast information network of the Grandset, there could be any oversights.Suddenly, an icy voice reached her ears."The Grandset people have really outdone themselves this time, wreaking havoc on our base and throwing our plans into disarray."Blackrose snapped to attention and looked up to meet the malicious gaze of the four figures. Instinctively, she tightened her grip on her weapon as she felt their murderous intent."Everyone, be on your guard," she warned her companions.They nodded in understanding.But a vicious glint flashed across the faces of the four figures, and one of them roared, "This is the end for you!"With that, they charged forward.Blackrose and her companions sprang into action.Their opponents were clearly more skilled than those from 001 had been. Their moves were swift and ruthless. One misstep could mean death.But they were still no match for Mr. Merrick, whose skills
Chapter 1701 Tony held his breath, quietly waiting for Sean to finish reading it. He had written everything down clearly. It was just that the surroundings were too quiet at this time, and he felt very uneasy. After Sean finished reading, his handsome face was tense, and his eyes were dark and deep. Since Tony ran in a panic, Sean had guessed that something went wrong, but he hadn't expected that it was far more serious than he had thought. He had underestimated the Martial Art Union! "Unexpectedly, even Blackrose and others failed." Sean said slowly, deliberately lowering his voice, "It seems that the other party is indeed very difficult to deal with." Tony nodded, "Yes." If it hadn't been very difficult, Blackrose wouldn't have sent the signal. "Yes?" Sean raised his eyebrows, and his cold eyes fell on Ton's face, "You didn't find out about these people in advance?" There was no fluctuation in his tone, but there was a strong sense of oppression. Tony hurriedly sa
Chapter 1702 Sean handed the computer to Tony and hugged Molly tightly again. Tony took it and asked, "Sir, what about Blackrose and the others? What was wrong with Mr. Merrick's tone just now? Will he withdraw from the case?" If this continued, those people might die. Sean raised his eyes, glanced at him, and snorted, "Don't you know him? Since he talked in that tone, he was prepared. How could he sit by and watch anything happen to Blackrose and the others?" Tony thought Sean was right when he was reminded. Chester occasionally looked a little out of tune, but he was strategic in his actions. He had been worrying for nothing! "Just now Mr. Merrick said that there is another group of people on the island, but they don't seem to show up. Where are they?" Sean was also thinking about this right now. He somehow had a bad premonition. "Maybe they're not at the base. If they were, Merak and the others wouldn't have retreated so easily. So, they may have acted together
Chapter 1703 "Then keep looking. I don't believe we can't find the stronghold of the Grandset." The woman put away the binoculars and exchanged glances with the other three. They quickly dispersed and continued to search the vicinity. At the same time, Blackrose and the others were almost unable to hold back under the strong offensive of the opponent. Due to careless, Blackrose was kicked by the opponent and flew a few meters away and fell heavily to the ground. A bloody smell flooded her throat instantly. Then a mouthful of blood spat out from her mouth. "Boss!" Seeing this, one of her companions rushed over quickly and tried to help her when he was injured too. Blackrose raised her hand to stop him, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and raised her head. As the opponent walked towards her step by step, her eyes darkened and she stood up enduring the pain. Like the others, she was also covered with wounds of various sizes, and her clothes were stained red wi
