2024-10-29 19:42:56Fear filled the heart of the squad leader as he thought of his close brush with death just now. Right now, he could only thank his lucky stars that the assassin had reacted quick enough and killed all the ambushers.
Thinking of the assassin who had just saved them, the squad leader's face immediately burned red with shame. Just a few seconds ago, the squad leader had been calling her names and rebuking her just so he and his squad could selfishly leach in her. But she was still the one who had saved their lives when they had been in danger.
The squad leader could not bring himself to look the assassin in the eye, so he lowered his head, feeling repentant.
At this moment, the squad leader had completely given up on being able to follow behind the assassin, and he didn't dare bring up this matter anymore. Even his squad members knew that they shouldn't go too far in this matter, and they simply waited for the assassin's reaction.
As for the assassin, after

Protogene Assimilation A Game Of Cat And Mouse With Between Two Assassin
With the departure of the squad, the hall suddenly became silent and empty. The only occupants of the hall were a bunch of corpses that littered the ground and stained it with a pool of blood.A few minutes after the squad had left, a blurry figure suddenly condensed inside the hall. The figure slowly became corporeal, eventually revealing the slender figure of the female assassin, Phantom Trace.Currently, the assassin was looking in the direction the squad had just left through, and she was silent for a while before sweeping her gaze around the hall.She also muttered to herself, "Was I really thinking too much?"There was a doubtful look in the assassin's eyes as she looked around suspiciously for a short while. In the end, not finding anything strange with the environment, she eventually shook her head in the end."It seems I was really thinking too much. I should just forget about it and leave. I still have a mission to complete."After
Protogene Assimilation Smug Max... Almost At The Finish Line
While Trapp was chasing after the scout...In another section of the base, the previous squad that Trapp was using as a cover... the members of this squad had been proceeding smoothly through the corridors of the base and they had passed by multiple sections to arrive and the intersection leading to the central command level of the base.Due to the commotion caused by Trapp when he started killing the guards in the base and the subsequent matter with the second squad and the assassin, the base was too busy dealing with them and they had not had the time to deal with other things. Also, the base was already making preparations to evacuate a long time ago. Adding to Trapp's matters, as a result of all this, nobody had discovered this squad at all and they had not encountered any trouble that they couldn't deal with without drawing attention to themselves.Because of this, Max, who had been reprimanded strongly by their leader, was carrying a smug expression on his
Protogene Assimilation Max's Insurbodnation
Nina had a frown on her face as she was interrupted by the leader. With an impatient look on her face, Nina answered scathingly."Don't interrupt me. I will be done in a minute. The algorithm of this lock is very delicate and demands my full attention to be able to crack it. If I lose my focus for even a second, minutes of hard work would be lost in an instant and I would have to start from the beginning all over again. So just stand there and do your job protecting me while I do my job."After speaking, Nina ignored the leader and went back to cracking the lock. As for the captain, he had an apologetic look on his face as he felt embarrassed for disturbing Nina.Although Nina's words sounded harsh, the leader was not annoyed. He knew how important her work was, so he didn't take her harsh words to heart at all.The leader even wanted to apologize for disturbing her, but seeing as she had resumed working, he thought better of it and instead focused his at
Protogene Assimilation The Leader's Frustration
Friction was developing between Max and the leader and the two of them were unable to see eye to eye at this moment, making their relationship appear tense at the moment. Due to this, the rest of the squad members were uneasy. They didn't know what would happen to Max and the leader or how it would affect them later. To be honest, the squad members liked the current state of their mission. Since they had infiltrated the base successfully, everything had been smooth sailing for the squad and they hadn't come across anything they couldn't handle at all. All of this could be attributed to Max's scheme against Trapp that unintentionally drew the base's attention to him, which later ended up benefiting the squad. For this, the squad members were naturally grateful to Max. Although he had not planned for this to happen when he schemed against Trapp, it was still because of him that the progress of the mission could be so relaxing. On the other hand, the squ
Protogene Assimilation Temporary Retreat
As the leader spoke to Nina, she suddenly snapped and said in a very curt tone of voice."Didn't I say you shouldn't disturb me? You're distracting me and I am not able to focus on my work!?"The leader flinched a little when he heard Nina's harsh words and he hesitated a little. In the end, because the situation was really urgent, the leader had no choice but to say to her once again."I know what you said, but we really need to know when the door can be opened. The situation is very urgent right now, so if you are not confident about opening it soon, let me know. If that is the case, we can only give up and try another time when the situation has settled a little."The leader spoke gently to Nina, trying to implore her to give an accurate timeline on when she would be able to crack the lock on the door.In the end, probably knowing how urgent things were, Nina eventually calmed down and said to the leader."Fine, I have heard. I am almost
Protogene Assimilation Relentless Pursuit
There were sounds coming from outside the room, and the leader and everybody else listened quietly in silence as they attempted to make out what the situation was like outside.Pata Pata!Clang! Clang!Boom!Bang!Outside, the sound of hurried footsteps could be heard as multiple people ran all over the corridor. This was followed by the sound of fighting as weapons clashed against each other, causing small scape explosive sounds to echo in the corridor and through the rooms.The squad did not know what was happening outside exactly, but they knew the battle going on was very serious. It seemed like multiple people were fighting against each other. This was somehow different from the report sarge had made where he said a group of people was surrounding and attacking a single opponent.The leader turned to sarge and quietly whispered to him, "Hey Sarge, I thought you said a single person was being surrounded and attacked. Why, then, do
Protogene Assimilation Charging Forth
The 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

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.
