2024-10-29 19:42:56The assassin, Phantom Trace, was locked in fierce combat. She was being surrounded on all sides by more than twenty opponents, and she was having a difficult time dealing with them. They were very relentless, as they constantly attacked her with everything they had.
Fortunately, although the corridor was large, it wasn't big enough to support more than twenty people fighting at the same time. Of the more than twenty opponents that besieged the assassin, phantom trace... only about ten of them could attack her at the same time. The other ten or so opponents stayed at the back to support the main attacks and prevent the assassin from slipping away.
The assassin, Phantom Trace, was fully capable of dealing with more than ten opponents at the same time. Her phantom apparition ability was the perfect counter to human wave assaults and she could fight multiple at the same time. Fighting twenties was not a problem for her not to talk often. The only problem was that she could

Protogene Assimilation Bursting Out With Unexpected Strength
The giant apparition that the assassin had materialized charged forward with her and with the shield placed in front of its chest, it was like a bull charging forward with powerful momentum. In an instant, the apparition collided with the pursuers in front. Anybody that came in contact with it was knocked flying back, spitting out a long trail of red blood that dyed the surrounding walls and floor red.By this time, some of the pursuers had already come to their senses, but it was already too late. They stared in shock and horror as their comrades were sent flying and spitting blood from a single blow.None of them ever expected the assassin to hold such a powerful card in her hands, and she had kept it hidden until now to deal a powerful blow to them."Damn it, we were too careless!" one of the pursuers gritted his teeth in anger as he complained."Quick... stop her! She is heading for the control room!"Immediately, this command was given. The re
Protogene Assimilation Blaming Max
This sudden burst of strength seemed to exert a great toll on the assassin because after she sent her pursuers flying, she also collapsed on the ground and spat a mouth full of blood. The giant apparition above her also seemed to become faint, as if it was about to disappear.It seemed like the assassin had fainted after losing her strength, but looking closely, one could actually see her breathing shallowly on the ground as she tried to catch her breath and gather strength back into her limbs.Although it might seem that the giant apparition was going to disappear completely, it still stay over the assassin, stubbornly protecting her from anything that may bring harm to her.The squad was watching everything that was going on outside, and they had caught a brief look at the assassin once before she was covered by the giant apparition. But they had not gotten a clear look at her as she was being surrounded by two pursuers then.The squad members saw how t
Protogene Assimilation Facing Potential Repercussions
When Max said those last words, some of the squad members actually hesitated because it made sense. If Trapp was really the person who was fighting outside and he was so powerful, how could it be easy for Max to scheme against him and send him to another side of the base? It didn't make sense that such a powerful person would be able to trick like that. Some people were confused by this, but others didn't think much about it. They still looked at Max and were blaming him for the current problem. "Maybe he was fooled because he didn't expect you to meet a petty and foolish person like you," somebody said. "I mean, think about it. We have already been promised a lot of benefits to allow Trapp to join us in this mission. The benefits are even almost equal to the rewards we will get from this mission and all we have to do is let a single person join us and tolerate him for a while. If you were the one involved in this, you wouldn't expect to meet a person
Protogene Assimilation Tenacious
With various worries in his heart, the leader decided to end this matter here quickly before it got out of hand."Listen, now is not the time to deal with this now. We can settle who is at fault later, but right now we need to make sure we aren't discovered and we can complete the mission without any problems developing. Do you hear me, all of you?"The leader shot a piercing glare at all the people that were causing trouble. His tone revoked any chance for disobedience and he exerted his authority as the leader to completely end this topic. None of the squad members dared to disobey the leader because he still held a lot of prestige among the squad members and they respected him very much. They simply lowered their heads and said nothing after that.Seeing as the matter had come to an end, the leader was pleased.Nodding his head, his expression became serious once more before he started addressing a more important issue."What are we going to do
Protogene Assimilation We Meet Again!
Until the assassin's figure disappeared into the other side of the door, the squad members stared silently in disbelief. They were amazed at the tenacity that she showed as she trudged forward without stopping in pursuit of her goal.Even at the end, the squad members could still not confirm if it was Trapp or another person they were watching. But they were clear of one thing...Whoever it was, they were very formidable, and it wouldn't be good to have him as an enemy. This was the impression the assassin had left on the squad and it was embedded deep within them.Finally, after the assassin could no longer be seen, the leader eventually spoke to Nina again and asked, "What about the guards... how are they doing now?"Nina quickly stopped paying attention to the assassin when the leader asked this question. She was also looking for a clear angle to determine the state of the guards.The smoke and dust in the air were clearly steadily, so it didn't
Protogene Assimilation Hiding In Wait... Everything Is Exposed Before My Eyes
Trapp was hiding in a corner and he didn't make any moves at all as he silently watched everything before him. When Trapp and the scout arrived, the assassin and her pursuers were already at the decisive moment of their battle. The assassin had just condensed the giant apparition and used it to critically injure a few of her pursuers after catching them off guard. As the assassin was being pursued, most of the guards and soldiers on the bases had been sent to deal with her. They were ordered to capture her if possible and if not; they were instructed to kill her. While she was being chased, the number of enemies she had to deal with was much more than the twenty or so pursuers that were on her tail at the end. Most of the people who had gone to intercept the assassin had been killed by her after underestimating her. Their bodies were left to grow cold on the ground as the assassin ran away. Nobody stopped to take care of them and they were completely ignored.
Protogene Assimilation Time To Blow The Joint Up
A few of the guards were still awake when the squad members moved out to kill them. They were just severely injured and weak, so they couldn't move. When the squad members appeared, these guards wanted to resist, but they were badly wounded to do anything and ended up getting killed.Everything ended almost immediately. As soon as the squad members moved, they killed all the guards lying on the ground. Not many of them put up any resistance, and those that did were immediately dispatched before they could cause any trouble. After they were done, the place fell silent once again.Once everything was done, the leader nodded at the rest of the members and then took the lead and went to the open door. Standing in front of the door, the leader felt a sense of irony, like somebody was playing a joke on him and laughing at him behind his back. It was because this door that had given his team a lot of trouble was finally opened, but they were not the first ones to pass through
Protogene Assimilation Unexpected But Exciting Development
"Is it reinforcements?" Trapp asked himself."No, it doesn't look like it is...""Why do these people look very familiar?" Trapp looked at the approaching group and asked himself.When Trapp wanted to follow the previous squad through the door and towards the control room, he suddenly stopped short because he noticed movement coming from one of the corridors in the hall.To be more accurate, Trapp had not yet seen them but because his senses were extended to a great distance away from him, which was how he monitored his surroundings, Trapp could already hear that people were coming before they even arrived. That is why he went back into hiding.Trapp decided to wait and see who was approaching before deciding on what to do. Although he could not yet see them, so he didn't know who was coming, Trapp could still roughly make guesses on their identity based on what he heard.Listening carefully, Trapp knew that there were multiple people headin

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! Even if you are powerful and capable,

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.
