2024-10-29 19:42:56The scout was sandwiched between the clones of the captain and he had no way of retreating. At the same time, the two clones clawed at the scout. One reached for the scout's head while the other aimed at his waist. Their goal was to subdue the scout as quickly as possible.
The power in the clone's claws carried a menacing tearing force, and their strike was very vicious. If the scout was struck by the clone's attacks, he would be severely injured and, most likely, directly crippled.
It seemed like this was the end for the scout and his rescue attempt had already failed. The attacks of the clones were about to land on him. But it was at this moment that the scout pulled off an almost impossible feat.
Just as the claws of the clones were about to hit the scout, using very bizarre and strange footwork, the scout's presence seemed to waver and paused for a moment as he stood in place as he twisted his body in a very peculiar kind of way.
The scout was in this

Protogene Assimilation Time Is Up
"This scout is definitely not an ordinary person..." Trapp thought to himself."No ordinary person is able to learn such powerful techniques... he is definitely from a powerful background!" Trapp concluded this.He was actually right. There was indeed no way an ordinary person without any background could ever learn such a powerful technique unless, of course, he got it by chance as an inheritance from somewhere in the universe.But then again, even if the scout learned this technique by chance, it would be very difficult to practice it because it would need to consume a lot of resources just to gain basic mastery of such a powerful technique. It was not something a lone commoner could learn on his own like that.As for why somebody with a powerful background would need to join a squad where the risk of death was very high like this... just like how Trapp's squad members suspected him to be the son of a bigshot in the Avalon family who was sent to the fro
Protogene Assimilation Surrounded
Nobody was moving as the situation below Trapp came to a standstill. The only two people standing were the captain and the female captive who had just been released. The rest were still on the floor. As for the scout, he was holding his abdomen to staunch the bleeding in his stomach.In order to stop the scout, the captain had taken back the energy in the bodies of the other two clones dressed as guards and used it to quickly deliver a brutal blow to the scout.Trapp scanned through the people on the ground, paying more attention to the scout, the captain, and the woman who the scout had risked everything to free.Trapp was more curious about this woman than the rest. For the scout to take such a risk to free her and not their leader, it was clear she wasn't a simple person at all. She was most probably this squad's trump card that they relied on to get out of a sticky situation.Trapp first of all observed the scout know what his condition was like. From
Protogene Assimilation Emotionless Assassin
The invaders were surrounded once again, and this time, all their members were present. The guards of the base aimed their weapons at the squad and especially at the only woman left standing. Slowly, the guards came closer and tightened the encirclement on the invaders. They didn't want to give them any chance to escape at all.Once again, the captain said to the woman that was standing, "Give up! There's no way you can get out of here alive. Just surrender now and let us take you in. If you do that, you will be regarded as prisoners of war and will receive the corresponding treatment befitting that status. If you refuse to comply, then we will have no choice but to attack you with extreme prejudice."The captain spoke clearly, and he calmly stated the benefits of surrender as well as the consequence of resistance. His eyes never left the woman, and he gave her a wary look as he quietly signaled his men to get ready to act at any moment.For some reason, this wo
Protogene Assimilation Phantom Trace
The floor in the hall below Trapp was filled with blood and corpses. Apart from the captives, there was no one left alive, as they had all been instantly killed by the woman. None of the soldiers or even the captain had been able to resist at all before death had come to claim them.The captives had a terrified look on their faces as they watched the blood flow out of the soldier's throats and pool at their feet. They all looked at the woman responsible for this massacre in horror and trepidation.Their eyes didn't look like they were looking at a human and a comrade of theirs. Instead, it looked like they were seeing an unfamiliar monster. there was fear as well as a hint of awe at the woman's strength.From the very beginning, the woman's face remained blank. Not a single expression could be seen on her face as she cut down the lives of all these people. Those eyes of hers were cold and contained complete disregard for the lives she had just ended. It was as i
Protogene Assimilation Assassins Mission
"What is this top assassin doing here?" Trapp wondered to himself.It was very suspicious that a top assassin for hire would appear on this small team that was sent to conduct dangerous missions for the Avalon family. It was very clear from the way the members of the team treated Phantom Trace that she was not a part of their original squad and was probably only just a temporary addition to the squad.The members of this squad treated her respectfully, and there was worship and awe in their eyes every time they looked at her. But at the same time, they were not close to her and even subconsciously avoided meeting her gaze. This showed that they were very afraid of her and didn't want to interact too much with the assassin.Out of all of them, the only person that had the best relationship with the assassin's phantom trace was the scout. He was the only one who approached her and could talk to her normally. But even for him, their relationship was very subtle. He
Protogene Assimilation Deep Waters And Hidden Undercurrents
Trapp looked at the people gathered together below him with a strange expression on his face.'Are they talking about me?' he wondered.'Come to think about it, it does seem they were implicated after I started killing in the base... I had wanted to draw out the guards and their superior so I would be able to get out of here and move to the central area. But it seems I ended up fishing out something more instead."Trapp considered things for a moment and he felt he was directly responsible for this squad being discovered as they were carrying out their mission.. but he didn't really care about that...It was not like Trapp was going to go down and apologize to them now. Besides, by doing this, Trapp was able to discover something very interesting.Trapp looked at the squad members that were strategizing for a moment, but he quickly turned away as they weren't saying anything that interested him. Instead, Trapp's eyes followed the scout who was walk
Protogene Assimilation Don't Offend The Young Master
Trapp watched as the scout, Ryder, made his way towards the assassin, phantom trace. His gaze was especially focused on his every movement as he tried to see if he would behave abnormally and make any hidden moves. But the scout's actions were normal and Trapp didn't notice anything out of the ordinary. When the scout was almost 3 meters away from the assassin, Trapp immediately withdrew his senses from him, not daring to pay too much attention to the scout lest he be discovered by the assassin. Every assassin had a powerful perception, and they could notice it when they were being spied on. It was naturally the same for a top assassin, like Phantom Trace. Trapp did not dare focus too much on Phantom Trace, and he only dared to listen to the movement of the wind if he wanted to capture any sound from their conversation. Also, he didn't dare to look at the assassin directly because that could trigger a reaction from her. if Trapp tried to stare at any part of
Protogene Assimilation Moving On To The Next Section
More than ten minutes had passed since the assassin, Phantom Trace, had killed the guards of this base section, including their captain. By now, everybody had gotten a good rest, and the injured had been treated.At this moment, the assassin finally moved. She stood up from her place in a corner of the hall where she had been leaning against the wall with her eyes closed.As soon as she moved, the rest of the squad members and the scout immediately perked up. They quickly got to their feet after seeing her making her way over to them.During the time the squad had been resting, they had always kept an eye on the assassin, paying very close attention to her every movement. It was mainly because they were naturally wary against having a powerful assassin staying so close to them. Also, their current mission now relied heavily on the assassin to be completed.Now that the squad had been exposed, it was certain the base would definitely prepare countermeasure

Powering Up And Life Orders
Right now, Constantine was in a very mysterious state. His body was covered in lightning, and a thick pillar of lightning surged from his body and shot into the sky, looking like it wanted to sunder the heavens apart. A lightning storm was being brewed with Constantine at the center and powerful electromagnetic forces clashed with the might of the sandstorm that was formed with the combined strength of multiple dooms.Right now, Constantine really resembled those anime characters that were undergoing a power-up, and in a sense, that was exactly what Constantine was doing.Constantine was currently in a state where he was digging deep within himself in an attempt to tap into the full potential of his powers to go beyond the limit of what he was currently capable of.In other words, Constantine was trying to call onto his future powers, which he did not currently possess, in order to go beyond the limit of his current strength.This is basically what a power-up is all about.

Advancing Toward The Final Goal 2
There was a short hallway from the door leading into the control room that Trapp and the others had to pass through. It didn't take long before the group was at the end of the hallway. As soon as he reached the end, Trapp stopped, and the others followed soon after. Nobody knew what was waiting for them on the other side of the hallway, so they tried to prepare themselves for the worst. Trapp exchanged looks with the assassin and he could see the serious expression on her face as her eyes went sharp with focus. Turning around, Trapp saw various signs of seriousness and focus on the faces of the others from the two squads as they prepared themselves for what would likely be an uphill battle. Wasting no time, Trapp nodded his head at the assassin, who blinked and nodded back at him. 'It is time!' This was what Trapp was trying to convey to the assassin, and she naturally understood him. Without saying anything else, both of them rapidly shot forward with a blast and crossed the thres

Advancing Toward The Final Goal
Trapp, along with the assassin, Phantom Trace, and the other two squads, were standing in front of the doorway leading to the control room. All of them were already well rested and had recovered a significant portion of their strength. Even the ones that were injured the most, the second squad, had managed to recover 50% of their combat power so they wouldn't be a hindrance in the next step of the plan.As everybody looked ahead, various thoughts went through each of their heads and no one took the initiative to step forward first. Finally, Trapp was the first to move. He took a few steps forward and then stopped before turning around to look at the rest.Looking each of them one by one in the eye, Trapp finally spoke up and said, "Alright then, we've already come to this point and you're all well rested. I understand that all of you have your own objective so I am not asking that we cooperate together. Just remember the plan we made and stick to them. As long as nobody tries any funn

An Hour Elapses As Everybody Recovers
There was a brief moment of silence between Trapp and the assassin, Phantom Trace. Eventually, the assassin gritted her teeth and said to Trapp."Alright, fine, I will bite!"The assassin stared at Trapp resentfully as she said, "You really give a compelling argument, I will admit. I, too, cannot stand the thought of being used. If it is as you said, the Avalon family is just playing me, then I have to know the truth. Even if what you said is not true, it won't affect me in any way if I investigate. In any case, I have to enter the control room in order to complete my mission so it won't conflict with anything if I investigate with you.""That's good," Trapp responded in delight. He was fairly certain that he would be able to convince the assassin to join his cause and, as he expected, she really decided to follow him. Trapp was very happy with this outcome.Suddenly, the assassin looked at Trapp seriously and said, "Don't be too happy yet. I am not done speaking.""Go on," Trapp urge

Decoys
The assassin, Phantom Trace, quickly shook herself mentally and removed the stray thoughts from her mind. Although she didn't know what had suddenly come over her that caused her to detect such an irrelevant detail, she was not willing to dwell on that matter anymore, so she focused on more important matters that were currently on hand.Looking at Trapp, the assassin directly said, "I admit that, based on what you said, things are a bit strange. In that case, what do you think is happening here?""Why did the Avalon family gather all of us here, and what could their true objective possibly be?"Since the assassin could not figure it out on her own, she felt it was better to directly ask Trapp and hear what his thoughts on the matter were.Trapp did not waste any time as he quickly answered, "Believe it or not, I think all of us here, that includes me, you, and those two squads are merely decoys and the scout is the one who was assigned with the mission to

Phantom Traces Suspicions
The assassin, Phantom Trace, was frowning very hard. Her brows were deeply furrowed, and her expression was slightly unnatural. Listening to Trapp's analysis, she could not help the feeling of shock and surprise that overwhelmed her.Trapp's analysis was spot on and accurate to a fault. Just like he said, the second mission had greater priority over the first. As long as she completed it and retrieved the item that she was told to, she would still get paid regardless of his, she completed the assassination mission or not.This was a clause that had been added to the contract that she signed when she came under the employ of the Avalon family.Although assassins like her and Trapp mostly worked in the shady and gray area of society, there was still a need to keep accounts clear in case of any problems during the course of a mission. For example, signing contracts had now become necessary in order to prevent either party from breaching the terms of the contract. I

Trapp's Suspicions
"What is that supposed to mean?" the assassin looked at Trapp suspiciously as she asked that question."What exactly are you insinuating?"The assassin could not understand what Trapp meant by his question. It was he was insinuating that he wasn't the cause of her recent failure up until now.Trapp's question made this whole mission seem like a conspiracy. To the assassin, Phantom Trace, Trapp was just mystifying things in order to shirk responsibility and avoid blame. She wasn't going to fall for his schemes."If you think for one second that I am going to let you off just because you want to sound profound when you are not, you've got another thing coming, mister!"Witnessing the assassin's reaction, Trapp rolled his eyes at her. Then he shook his head as he said to her."Alright calm down and stop being overly dramatic. Will you at least let me finish what I was going to say.?""Sheesh, women!

Rookie Crushing
"So you are the famous ending maker... the rookie who has been making a lot of waves recently in our circle?" the assassin, Phantom Trace, said to Trapp after learning his identity. Naturally, the identity that Trapp revealed to her was his assassin monicker and not his real identity.Phantom Trace looked Trapp over from head to toe before she continued speaking, "I hear you currently have a 1000% mission completion rate and that all your targets have been successfully assassinated since you began your debut. nice track record... it's almost as impressive as mine. Your codename is a little tacky, I would say, but apart from that, you're definitely promising."The assassin, Phantom Trace, evaluated Trapp as she observed him, stating his past record since he became an assassin. From her words, it seemed like she was praising Trapp, but if one listened carefully to what she said, one would know that there was a hidden meaning underlying her every word.Although the

Assassin's Code
None of the squad members doubted Trapp's ability to defeat and kill them. They were able to feel a suppressive pressure from him that made them weak and unwilling to face him. This kind of pressure was something that people naturally exerted over those who were weaker than them.It was a subconscious fear that was exerted over other people who were weaker than oneself, forcing them to be unwilling to face you in combat. If a person could exert this kind of fear and pressure over another person, then when fighting that person, it would feel like their hands and feet were shackled by an invisible force and they wouldn't be able to display their full power in combat.There were a lot of factors that could lead to another person being able to have suppressive pressure over their opponents and it wasn't a hard fact simply based on if you were stronger than the other person or not. Things like confidence, will, and courage could also cause people to suppress others.
