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
The legendary leader of the Crimson Order, a figure shrouded in mystery, was unexpectedly stabbed to death by the infamous Stealthbane.No surprises were left—Eric knew that the Crimson leader was deader than dead. Even the best medical skills couldn't bring him back. It was futile for anyone to attempt resuscitating him—not even the Ephemeral Vitality Technique could revive the Crimson leader.Eric's mouth twitched as he watched Stealthbane wipe the blood off his knife with his clothes. "I say, you won't stab me too, will you?"He was genuinely a bit worried.If Stealthbane turned on him now, Eric could still muster the strength to fight back.Stealthbane grinned. "Mr. Johnson, you're joking."He pointed at Shadow. "That guy isn't dead yet. Should we finish him off too? I bet he can't take me now."Eric glanced at Shadow. "Forget it, let him go. At least for the sake of Michael."Stealthbane was puzzled. Was this Eric's way of doing things? It seemed... rather saintly.
Ruth was almost in tears, "Master, it’s not true! It's just to deal with my father pressuring me to get married."Pierce laughed. "No need to explain. I totally understand!"-At Phoenix City.Eric and Stealthbane had already returned to the villa.Michael knew they had taken action. Upon seeing that Shadow hadn’t returned, his eyes turned slightly red. "H-He... is gone?"Such actions can result in death.This seemed to be within Michael's expectations.Stealthbane spat on the ground. "Don’t mention him, that traitor! Mr. Johnson kindly took him in here, and he betrayed us!"He exposed our actions. Dozens, Mr. Ortega! Dozens of legends attacked just the two of us. If it weren't for Mr. Johnson being invincible, we wouldn't have made it back!"Michael looked at Eric with confusion. 'Did Lucius really betray them?'Eric nodded. "He’s right. Shadow leaked information and notified the Crimson Order. But don’t worry. I didn’t kill him. I had someone extradite him to King City. Wh
Upon waking up in the morning, Eric felt some soreness in his body, but it wasn't a big deal. If he didn't feel anything, that would be a bigger problem. After all, he had fought the Crimson leader until both of them were exhausted, and his body was severely overtaxed."Why are you up so early? Don't you want to sleep a bit more?" Sylvia, who was getting ready for work, saw that Eric was also up early and was a bit puzzled."I couldn't sleep," Eric replied. "Wait for me. I'll wash up, and we can go to the office together."He couldn't stay idle. Although he had only been away in Phoenix City for a few days, there were plenty of things happening at the Innova Group.In addition to the ongoing progress in the pharmaceutical department, the Innova Group also had new projects being initiated.-During the morning meeting, Sylvia brought up the issue of new projects. "It's rare to have so many executives and core technical staff together. Let's talk about our new project. Artificial i
