Upon seeing this, the expert with the meteor hammer and the one carrying two sabers had a drastic change in their expressions as they quickly looked toward Lennonâs body.
However, their cars were moving at a high speed and had already distanced themselves far away from the manâs corpse, making it impossible to see.
After Lennon had died, the drones in the sky lost control and crashed to the ground, shattering into pieces.
âCarson, how did Lennon die?â The expert with the meteor hammer asked with a grave expression.
âDonât ask me. How am I supposed to know?â
Carson stared ahead, a hint of extreme dread flashing in his eyes. He said in a deep voice, âRandall, I have a feeling that it would be dangerous to catch up. We might end up following in Lennonâs footsteps.â
âWhy donât we stop chasing, then?â
Randallâs expression changed when he heard that.
They were both godâclass experts with formidable strength. After practicing for so long, their spiritual strength was stronger than others.
After witnessing Lennonâs death, they instinctively felt the threat of death.
If the opponent was strong, then so be it!
Yet what was the most terrifying was that the opponentâs strength was unknown!
The unknown was the most frightening.
After a brief moment of contemplation, Randallâs expression turned somber as he voiced his concern, âBut if we were to return in this manner, how do we justify our actions to our superiors?
Youâre well aware of the severe consequences imposed by the Radiant Society for defying their commands.â
Hearing this, Carsonâs expression changed.
The two exchanged a glance, both seeing the dilemma in each otherâs eyes.
In fact, they were both members of the Radiant Society, sent to seize Lawrenceâs life on orders.
Now that Lennon had died, both of them sensed the danger ahead. If they pursued, it was very likely that they would die.
Yet if they did not, they would certainly be punished by the Radiant Societyâs president when they returned.
In other words, they were caught in a dilemma!
After a minute of silence, Carson suddenly made a decision and said in a deep voice, âSlow down, turn around! Letâs go back!â
Going back would only result in punishment, but it would not cost them their lives.
The extent of Haylanâs strength remained an enigma, and given the natural surveillance, meaning the owl in the sky, it was clear that their every move would be observed by their intended target.
Meanwhile, they were acutely aware that their current level of power was insufficient to eliminate Haylan.
Upon hearing the order, the car gradually slowed down.
Seeing this, Randall immediately ordered his driver to decelerate as well.
The two cars then swiftly turned around, speeding away.
âCarson, if we just go back, will weâ¦â
âStop worrying about that. Our lives are more important. Besides, we have to go back and handle Lennonâs body.â
In the front, inside the bulletproof car, Haylan stood tall on the top of the car, his gaze cold as he glanced back and said indifferently, âGlad you know your limits. I just canât be bothered to deal with you.â
Then, he looked ahead, his gaze seemingly spanning several miles, toward the ambush of those few individuals in front. Only moments ago, Leonard had disclosed the precise location of the ambush involving the four godâclass experts.
10.99 Now, he only needed to attack those four places!
His gaze turned cold, and he pointed his sword fingers forward.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
In an instant, four sword beams shot out, like swift lightning bolts, racing toward the distance and quickly disappearing.
In the front, four experts stood in each direction on the road, their gazes cold and indifferent. Each of them wielded standardâissue sabers, their eyes icy and filled with killing intent.
One of them asked, âBoss, the information is correct, right? Are they really going to pass through here?â
âNo mistake. We just need to wait quietly. The boss nodded.
Jake pointed to the deep pit in the middle of the road and said coldly, âWhat are you worried about, Sam? This road has already been severed by us. They canât cross now.â
Sam smirked and said, âIâm just excited to find out what the evolved human brain looks like.â
Ben lit a cigarette and said calmly. âYou wonât have the chance to see it. That manâs head will be delivered to the Commander.â
The boss drew out a saber, his gaze icy, and said in a deep voice, âBe fully prepared, everyone. Our mercenary group leader is determined to obtain the manâs head. This time, we must capture it.
According to our intelligence, Haylan among their group is particularly difficult to deal with, and his strength is unpredictable. Besides, Leonard is a skilled member of the Shadow Knight. If we make a move against Haylan and the others, he will definitely obstruct us. If he interferes, Ben, you must find a way to hold him back while the three of us deal with Haylan.â
As his words left his lips, his unwavering gaze remained fixated on the distant end of the road, emanating an icy determination and readiness for the impending battle.
In his opinion, no matter how powerful Haylan was, as long as they gathered the strength of three godâclass experts, they could defeat him.
Just as they were on high alert, suddenly, they all felt an extreme sense of danger, their hairs standing on end.
âWhatâs that?â Sam suddenly stared ahead with a puzzled expression.
He seemed to have seen something flying at an extreme speed.
âSword beam! Dodge!â
The boss took a closer look, his expression changing dramatically as he immediately retreated.
Unfortunately, he shouted too slowly. While Jake, Sam, and Ben were still looking at what it was, sword beams had already rushed over like four cold lightning bolts, piercing through their chests.
In just an instant, the hearts of the trio were blasted apart as a bloody hole appeared on their chests.
The three of them looked at their empty chests in disbelief, unable to believe what had happened.
Immediately after, they could not even speak. Their mouths opened, and they spewed out a mouthful of blood, collapsing to the ground.
âWhâ¦Whatâs going on?â
After the boss had dodged the sword beam, he was dumbfounded when he saw his three men lying on the ground.
He could not believe that three sword beams alone could kill three godâclass experts.
The most terrifying thing was that they did not even see the person, let alone know how far the sword beams had crossed before the three men died.
He wondered, âWhat kind of powerful technique was this?â
He now realized that the attacker had sent the beams from afar, killing his men from a distance.
Suddenly, his expression changed again as he quickly dodged once more.
Whoosh!
A sword bearn flew from the end of the road, its speed still incredibly fast, too fast for him to react.
He gritted his teeth as he raised the saber, hoping to block the next attack.
The sword beam collided with the saber, unleashing a thunderous roar.
