Stealthbane was genuinely loyal to Eric because the latter had defeated him with sheer strength. However, he was extremely dangerous and treacherous toward others, especially his enemies.Back when he escaped from Erweston, several legends had surrounded him. He had managed to injure a few and still escape unscathed, which was a testament to his formidable skills.Now, in a one-on-one duel, he had the upper hand.He had no regard for honor or fair play, unlike the chivalrous tales. His methods were ruthless, focused solely on defeating his opponent, even killing them if necessary.To him, any means that could eliminate an opponent was a good method. He didn't distinguish between fair and foul play.It was precisely this approach that allowed him to catch the Crimson legend off guard with a sucker punch, giving him an advantage.The Crimson legend spat blood and lost his vigor. Being killed by Stealthbane was only a matter of time.The Crimson duo hadn’t anticipated running into
Stealthbane’s face turned pale. His opponent was much stronger, and he couldn't beat him.When the leading legend charged at Stealthbane, Eric had already made his move.He attacked from the side, his momentum incredibly terrifying.The leading legend sensed the fearsome power of Eric’s punch and temporarily abandoned Stealthbane to confront Eric instead.Stealthbane was so close that he felt like the wind from the punch would blow his hair off.The clash between the two was immensely terrifying!After a muffled sound, Eric stood still while the leading legend of the Crimson Order staggered back, knocking over the pot, which scattered all over the floor.He didn't stop until he collided with the tempered glass window.Looking at the glass now… it was covered in cracks!Eric's punch was incredibly powerful!The leading legend stared at Eric in horror, struggling to suppress the blood that threatened to spill from his mouth.After a long while, he finally spoke. "In these year
Eric pondered deeply.He was considering the possibility of handing these two people over to Shadow for disposal.Shadow would definitely kill them, and to Eric, these two legends seemed to have lost their value.Whatever they knew, Shadow should already know!What use were they to him?He didn't want to do the killing himself, so it was better to let Shadow handle the dirty work."Alright!" After thinking for a moment, Eric nodded, "Then I'll leave these two to you."Shadow grabbed the two people and left.Stealthbane popped a meatball into his mouth, swallowed it, and looked at Eric. "Mr. Johnson, why didn't that guy deal with them right here?"Why do I feel like they're all the same? If he doesn't kill them in front of us, won't he let them go?"Eric chuckled, "Let him be. He and Michael may seem at odds on the surface, but they actually don't want to see each other suffer."Michael was hurt so badly by them, so I don't think Shadow will let them go. Michael once asked me
Perhaps it was because there were many legends there and not much security that they were soon dispatched elsewhere.Eric and his two companions scaled the wall, landing on the grass as they sprinted toward the ancient castle.Stealthbane glanced at Shadow beside him and asked, "Are you sure the leader of the Crimson Order is in there?""Absolutely!" Shadow squinted. "They said tonight's operation was legendary. He’ll definitely be here waiting for news. The leader doesn't care about other news, but if it involves a legend, he’ll be here!""Let’s go!" Eric quickened his pace. His heartbeat accelerated as they approached. Tonight, there might be a fierce battle ahead!The three swiftly moved toward the brightly lit castle.There were still two guards in front of the castle."Leave them to me!" Stealthbane shouted.He pulled out two throwing knives from his coat, and with two swift motions, the guards clutched their throats, their eyes widening before collapsing to the side.S
The leader of the Crimson Order had long known about a person like Eric, who had caused them significant losses.Today, he finally met Eric in person and took him very seriously, proceeding with caution. He didn't immediately order his men to capture Eric and his two companions, as he was wary of Eric's reputation."You guessed right, it's me," Eric said, scanning the people in front of him. "Logically, you shouldn't have such a defense set up. Even if Stealthbane's men were exposed, your arrangements shouldn't have been this quick."Let me think, do we have a traitor among us?" Hearing this, Shadow felt a jolt of panic.'Eric Is that clever? There Is no time to waste!'At this thought, Shadow twisted his body and threw a punch.But he didn't expect that Eric was already on guard. His punch felt like it hit a steel plate, and with a scream, he flew out like a broken kite.Not far away, the leader narrowed his eyes.He had seen Eric throw that punch—the speed was astonishing,
Stealthbane glanced at Eric, feeling both awe and fear. "Damn! Knocking out one legend with a single punch? This is insane!"He had witnessed Eric's full power in action.He considered himself lucky to be standing on Eric's side.The opposing side, however, wasn't as fortunate. After spending a lifetime reaching the legendary level, they were defeated by a single punch.Who could they complain to?In just two punches, Eric had eliminated two legends. Including Shadow, that made three.Seeing Eric take down two legends with just two punches, the Crimson leader narrowed his eyes. "You two, join the fight!"The two legends who had previously gone to the villa to kill Michael also stepped forward.Though injured, they were still legends!Their participation only added four more fists to the fight.But Stealthbane was struggling to keep up."Mr. Johnson! Save me!" he shouted.Eric punched one legend back, and with his other hand, he threw two silver needles into the air."Watch
Only one person remained—the leader of the Crimson Order.The legends who had previously battled against Eric now lay silent, without even a groan.Stealthbane, although bearing some injuries, laughed heartily. "Damn! Mr. Johnson is a killing machine! I'll just cheer him on while he does all the slaying!"He was too excited, convinced that Eric was invincible.In a one-on-one fight, perhaps no one could be Eric's match.No one had ever been this powerful.Now, the question was whether the Crimson leader could withstand a few moves from Eric.Stealthbane was quite curious.The Crimson leader glanced around. Everyone else was down, and only he remained standing.He looked at Eric and said in an almost electronic voice, "You're much stronger than I imagined. It seems tonight's setup was useless against you. Only a fistfight will reveal the truth!"As soon as he finished speaking, he propelled himself into the air and charged at Eric. His entire body emitted a crimson aura, looki
The Crimson leader was beginning to feel afraid.Eric's martial arts skills were nearly on par with his own."Fine!" Eric clenched his fist. "If you take your own life in atonement for your sins, we won't have to fight. Otherwise, who will answer for the lives of so many in Dortmund City? We must capture the mastermind!"The Crimson leader shook his head. "You're so stubborn! With such martial prowess, you could rule the world. Why don't you have any ambition?!"He couldn't understand it.He felt Eric had no real aspirations.With such incredible skills, it was entirely possible to control the whole world. Why not pursue that?Eric took a deep breath. "Let's continue!"He launched another attack.The Crimson leader gritted his teeth and fought back, though he was already struggling.But Eric's punches were like a relentless storm.This was a battle of equals.With their skills being so similar, it was a matter of who could endure the longest.This was a battle of good vers
