Chapter 1625: Chapter 1625

Taniel, who knew well the terror of a five-tier 'professional', found it hard not to be tense.

"If it's a five-tier 'professional', a conservative estimate would be that you could hold out for half an hour!"

"But now it seems... Maybe a few minutes at most."

Lorde's words made Taniel's heart sink.

The situation was far worse than what this Deer Academy teacher and the second advisor of the Lorde Police Department had estimated.

Luodeni also wore a helpless expression.

Against one five-tier 'professional', he was confident he could go down with them.

But against two five-tier 'professionals'?

It would be a random choice ranging from minor to severe injuries.

"It depends on fate."

Lorde took a deep breath and said this.

He took out a scroll once more, waiting for the moment when the door would be smashed open.

Lorde was never one to sit still and wait for death.

So, he turned to look at Taniel. For more chapters visıt n0velfire.net

"Can you hold off one for me?"

"Can you take down one?"

Taniel seemed to answer a question with a question.

Lorde nodded slightly.

After a moment of silence, Taniel also nodded in response.

After that, the two had no more conversation.

There were only the sounds of clanging and banging.

The bulges on the metal door became more and more numerous.

And more concentrated.

Finally, as some positions began to overlap, a bulge turned into a hole.

An opening about the size of a human's little finger.

The separation of the inside and outside.

It was pierced through.

Taniel and Lorde could see the people outside.

The people outside could also see Taniel and Lorde.

Two middle-aged men with strikingly similar faces stood outside, their black uniforms, solemn demeanors, and sharp eyes made Lorde's eyelids twitch.

"The Giwos brothers."

He had never heard of these brothers' names.

"They are the two hidden five-tier 'professionals' within the royal family, loyal neither to Sewock VII nor inclined towards Prince Ruitai, representing others within the Sewock royal family."

"Got it, fence-sitters."

Then, Lorde saw the Giwos brothers' faces change on the other side of the hole.

Immediately, they raised their war hammer and rapier.

The elder brother, who wielded the war hammer, was a 'warrior', a unique five-tier 'barbarian warrior'.

The younger, with the rapier, was a 'special assassin', a five-tier 'Shadow Swordsman'.

Unlike 'Shadow Warriors', they leaned more towards swordsmanship skills.

The little finger-sized hole instantly turned into a fist-sized one.

Lorde did not hesitate, unfurling the scroll.

Taniel also prepared to uncork the bottle again.

This was the last chance, or else they wouldn't even have the chance to make a move.

Clear footsteps sounded.

A figure emerged from the shadows at the end of the corridor.

Steady and powerful steps, neither hurried nor slow.

The Giwos brothers immediately turned around, and Taniel and Lorde could also clearly see the figure through the hole.

Seeing the figure clearly, Taniel shouted excitedly.

The newcomer wore a cloak, held a double-edged longsword, clad in scale armor, with a stern face, showing no smile. Even upon hearing Taniel's call, his eyes remained unperturbed.

He simply swung his longsword at the Giwos brothers.

The elder Giwos, with a wild laugh, charged with the war hammer.

The watermelon-sized war hammer whirred in a dull wind.

'Barbarian Warriors', unlike usual five-tier 'warriors' who utilize weapons and armor to the utmost capacity, rely solely on their strength.

Or more accurately, brute force!

The strength of 'Barbarian Warriors' is unmatched among five-tier professionals.

So when Jason, unmoving, continued to slash forward, the elder Giwos laughed even louder.

Sparks flew as the longsword clashed with the war hammer.

The longsword stood firm.

The war hammer flew high.

The elder Giwos cried out in pain, his palm torn.

The 'Barbarian Warrior' lost the strength contest.

It wasn't just strength that was lost.

Alongside, his life was also lost.

The longsword slashed past the elder Giwos's neck, even as the younger's rapier stabbed into Jason's back, it couldn't stop Jason's sword.

The elder Giwos's head fell straight to the ground.

Though stabbed in the back, Jason was unharmed, turning to strike again.

The younger Giwos, startled, withdrew his rapier to retreat.

But Jason's double-edged longsword missed.

The younger Giwos easily avoided the attack, then his surprised expression quickly turned to a grimace, as he thrust his rapier.

That was the 'Shadow Swordsman's' pinnacle skill; the longsword split into three in an instant, one aimed at Jason's throat, one at his chest, and one at his abdomen.

All three strikes landed.

But such a skill was useless against Jason.

The blades failed to penetrate Jason's defense.

Instead, Jason seized the blade.

Then, with a forceful tug.

The younger Giwos stumbled.

When he regained his footing, a sword had already slashed across his neck.

The battle ended in a flash.

"I'll handle the people outside."

Jason said to Taniel before turning to leave.

Taniel and Lorde could hear clearly the sounds of skirmishes and gun and cannon fire coming from the end of the corridor, and the ground.

"Is this the 'Blood Hunter'?"

Lorde exclaimed in admiration.

But beside him, Taniel wore a serious expression.

He lowered his voice to a whisper that only the two of them could hear and said—

Lorde immediately realized something.

And his expression changed.
