Chapter 893
“Ugh…”Ano Eagle stared at Joseph, blood spilling from his mouth. He tried to speak, but no words came.The damage to his body was catastrophic.A man renowned for the sheer toughness of his physique had been unable to withstand even three of Joseph’s punches.Just how terrifying was Joseph’s strength?By then, Neil Foster and the others had come down as well.As Neil reached Joseph’s side, Ano Eagle breathed his last.“That’s it? He’s dead?”Neil stared at the corpse in disbelief.“Compared to most assassins, he was indeed resilient—strong, too. Unfortunately for him, he met me.”Joseph regarded the body calmly.“It’s fortunate you stepped in, sir. Otherwise, we might have been at it for hours—and lost a few brothers along the way.”Neil spoke with lingering unease.“Cut off his head.”Joseph instructed.“Understood.”“Do as the sir says.”Neil gestured to one of his men, who immediately set to work.“I wonder how Old Adams is faring.”Joseph found a tissue somewhere and began wiping

“Yes. We chased him for over an hour, then kept him pinned down here for another.”“The brat’s like a turtle in its shell—refuses to come out no matter what.”“If we weren’t in Nova City, where explosives are off-limits, I’d have blown him to pieces already.”Neil Foster spoke through clenched teeth.“Leave it to me.”As he spoke, Joseph removed the rest of his gear and tossed it to Neil.“Sir, you’re not thinking of going in through the second-floor window, are you?”Neil asked.“That won’t work. Didn’t you say he’s covering both the stairwell and the windows with a heavy machine gun?”“Going in that way would make you a sitting target.”Joseph gave a cold smile.“Exactly. So what’s your plan?”Neil pressed.“Where did he even get a heavy machine gun? In a place like Nova City, how did he manage to bring something like that in?”Joseph asked, puzzled.“He must’ve ambushed one of the Nova City Guard’s heavy-weapons posts after entering the city.”“With most of the Guard focused on the

“I know. I simply have no interest in this sort of collective endeavor.”“Beasts of prey walk alone; only cattle and sheep move in herds.”“You didn’t take part either. In temperament, we are much the same—equally independent.”Mosang drew a deep breath before speaking.“You should leave. After decades as an assassin, you’ve earned more than you could ever spend.”“If I were you, I’d wash my hands of it all and go enjoy the comfort of family.”Joseph sheathed the military blade in his hand.“What did you say?”Mosang could scarcely believe his ears.“I said, you may go.”Joseph repeated himself.“Why? You won. You should kill me.”Mosang was utterly perplexed.“If this had been years ago, you would already be dead.”“But now, I have no desire to kill you. Leave while you can—if I change my mind, you won’t get the chance.”“I have a family. So do you. They must be waiting for you to return safely.”Joseph turned his back, his voice tinged with quiet reflection.Hearing this, Mosang—sti

At that very moment, Joseph gave the roof of the car a light tap and launched himself into the air.His gaze sharpened, locking onto the direction from which the disturbance had come.With a subtle shift of his footing, his figure blurred forward, racing toward the source of the sound.Using the surrounding trees for leverage and the height of his leaps, he moved swiftly through the forest canopy.As he pursued, he sensed something fleeing ahead of him—the rustling growing louder, more urgent.Soon, he caught sight of a dark silhouette darting through the trees.Joseph accelerated. He was faster—noticeably faster.The distance between them steadily narrowed.At last, the shadow halted in a clearing. Joseph descended lightly onto the open ground, standing opposite the figure.“Mosang. I knew I wouldn’t need to look for you—you would come to me.”A cold smile curved Joseph’s lips.“Autumnless. You vanished for years, and yet I still could not take your place. What a pity.”“It is the gr

“I suspect reinforcements do exist. The reason they haven’t arrived after two or three days is simple—they’re still deciding how much they can siphon off.”“Supplies worth ten million? We’ll be lucky if a tenth of that actually reaches the front.”Neil Foster gave a bitter smile.“The Central Council is controlled by a handful of powerful families. They’ve never represented the nation’s interests—only their own.”“That’s why, when my master fought and bled on distant battlefields, he was ultimately framed and driven to his death. He was too upright—he despised those who sold out the country’s interests. And so they were eager to see him gone.”A cold smile touched Joseph’s lips.“The General will not have died in vain. Aren’t we still here? We will restore clarity and justice to Elysia.”Neil Foster’s gaze sharpened.“Well said.”Brian Adams nodded in agreement.“Young master, among the three top targets, we can track all except Mosang in real time.”“We can only approximate his locat
Chapter 888
After leaving the house, Joseph drove straight to the Night Rose Nightclub.At present, the Night Rose Nightclub served as the de facto headquarters of Dragon Abyss.For the command center of the world’s largest assassin organization, it appeared almost modest—unremarkable, even shabby.Yet it was also the most discreet.After all, true concealment does not lie in isolation but in plain sight. Who would ever suspect that amid the neon lights, the music, and the endless tide of revelers, the nerve center of the world’s most formidable assassin network lay hidden?Around five in the afternoon, Joseph arrived. After parking in the underground garage, he entered the base through a concealed passage.By then, Neil Foster and Brian Adams had been occupied in the conference room for hours.As Joseph stepped inside, the meeting had just concluded, and the management personnel were filing out. Each paused to greet him respectfully.“Old Neil, it’s settled. I’ll take Mosang. The young master ca
