Chapter 775



.

The lobby was completely dark.

Nora turned on her phone as soon as she entered. On the screen was the layout of the bank.

Although her mother had deposited things in the bank more than twenty years ago, the location of the safes remained the same even though the layout of the bank had changed over the years.

Thus, her mother’s things were still there.

Nora clearly remembered that it was safe no. 06 and that the password was her birthday.

She walked noiselessly towards the safes.

There were no personnel inside, only security agents patrolling back and forth. However, it was very difficult for them to detect her.

Nora was completely dressed in black, so she blended in with the darkness.

Light and agile, she headed straight for the safe deposit boxes. But after passing two rooms, she suddenly heard footsteps behind her.

Nora’s pupils shrank and she suddenly ducked into the next corner. When she looked behind her, she caught a shadow speeding past.

It seemed that tonight the place was very unsafe.

And she wasn’t alone here!

The thought made Nora bite her lip. Her first thought was that she hadn’t managed to avoid the people following her and they had followed her.

Other than professionals like Morris, the only people who could follow her without her noticing were people more skilled than her in the martial arts.

Someone more skilled than her in martial arts?! Was it Jude’s boss?

Could that person be one of the five children who had survived in the genetic serum lab?

It could only be one of them!

Nora frowned.

Her mind was racing, what should she do?

Since he had followed her here, he must have already known something was going on at the bank. Even if she turned around and left, it would be difficult for her to dispel the other party’s suspicions.

Even if she didn’t know that the safe in question was No. 06, now that she had closed the bank, all she had to do was check all the safes and she would find the clue.

Therefore, she had no way out.

Tonight, she, Nora Smith, had to retrieve the V16 her mother had left behind. Otherwise, it was very likely that the other party would get it.

With this in mind, Nora took a deep breath.

Then, she stopped suddenly and went on the offensive.

First she would test the black-clad man’s skills.

Bam!

The moment she launched her attack, the two engaged in a fight. The other party responded very quickly. Before her fist could connect, he was already blocking her attack and counterattacking.

In a single exchange of blows, Nora came to the conclusion that this was someone whose genes had been modified with the genetic serum.

Because his physical strength was too great!

Nora had been practicing martial arts for a long time. Ever since she was a child, she had relied on her natural talent to get her this far. Moreover, she became the Big Sister of the Quinn School of Martial Arts.

This was the first person in her life to give her premonitory pressure.

Her almond-shaped eyes opened wide and round as she stared at the person in front of her.

In the darkness, the man’s eyes glowed green. He wore a baseball cap and a face mask that revealed only his eyes. The way he was staring at Nora was as if he had just spotted his prey.

As he was blocking Nora’s attack, the man laughed and said, “That’s all you’ve got?”

He had an accent. It was obvious he was a foreigner.

In that instant, Nora felt a little angry at herself for not training properly. If she had been a little more diligent, she might have had a chance if she went at her opponent with full force.

She took a deep breath. “Who are you?”

“You don’t need to know. Hand over the V16 obediently and I will spare your life.”

The man approached her step by step. “Resistance is futile. All my genes have been enhanced and I have no flaws. I am now the most powerful fighter on earth. Without firearms, you will be no match for me at all.”

The man spoke with confidence and arrogance.

However, how could he use firearms here? If he did, all the security agents would come running in an instant.

Nora squatted down, ready to strike.

She knew she was no match for the man, but she couldn’t go down without a fight.

The V16 would be Xander’s, he would never give it up to anyone else!

She took a deep breath and sneered, “Try me.”

The man seemed a little surprised by her reaction. However, he let out a chuckle and said, “Trueman is right, you are too stubborn. You hold out hope until you are faced with the harsh reality. In that case, I’ll show you how strong I am.”

The man stepped forward abruptly and closed the distance between him and Nora.

Nora had just exchanged a punch with the man, so her fingers were still sore. How could she dare to continue fighting him head-on?

So, the moment the man approached, Nora tucked and rolled. A scalpel suddenly appeared in her hand, going straight for the man’s throat.

The scalpel was her weapon.

She had always been a tough woman who met challenges head on. She didn’t think the man was really stronger than she was.

But the next moment…

Clang!

The man not only evaded her attack, but even hit her wrist. Nora had always had a lot of physical strength, but her hand was in severe pain at that moment, as she lost all strength in her hand instantly.

The scalpel fell to the ground.

She really couldn’t beat it!

This thought flashed through Nora’s mind. By this time, the man behind her had already approached again. Just as it seemed he was about to reach her, a sneer appeared on Nora’s lips. Instantly, she turned around and brandished her hand.

A puff of white smoke burst into the air.

It was a drug that rendered one unconscious.

The man froze for a moment.

However, Nora did not take the opportunity to attack. She wouldn’t be able to beat him anyway. Besides, her goal today was not to kill the opponent but to find the V16.

So… if she couldn’t beat him, then she would simply run away. There was no problem with that.

He made a turn and slipped into the corridor beside her. Then, he ran forward.

She didn’t look back, but she could sense that the man was catching up to her.

The genetic serum had enhanced her body, so that her physical capabilities exceeded those of ordinary people. The drug he had just taken had only a minimal effect on him. There was no way to subdue him.

Therefore, Nora ran like the wind. The tables and chairs on the bench also hindered the man during the chase.

The man was getting closer and closer to her. Just as he was about to catch her, Nora dodged him and ran into the room where the safes were.

Then she locked the door.

Instantly, the sound of someone trying to break the lock sounded at the door. However, Nora’s goal was precisely psychological warfare.

She ran to safe no. 06 to get her hands on V16 before the man could enter.
