CHAPTER 254
Elsewhere in the city.The leader of the group whom Kevin had defeated returned to the base, which was a five-floored private restaurant.The ground floor was practically empty, not counting the receptionist.“Is the commander here?” the leader asked.The receptionist nodded. “You failed the mission, huh. You shouldn’t have come back.”“If I don’t come back, my entire family will be killed,” the leader said and then took the elevator and reached the fourth floor.There were close to forty people of both genders, sitting at different tables, drinking and eating at a snail’s pace.Some of them briefly looked at the leader.He went and stopped at the biggest table in the hall, where a man with a big mustache and a scar on his nose was sitting.He kneeled. “Forgive me, Commander Shane. I failed the mission.”Shane stopped eating and wiped his mouth before glancing at the leader. “This is the first time you failed a mission in over two years, right?”“The opponent did not have aura, but hi
CHAPTER 253
Inside the car store.“Did you see the news, sir?” an employee was talking with the manager. “The president has come to our city for the funeral of a billionaire.”“What’s special about that?”“He didn’t come with his security. He came with a driver and some hot chick. It’s become a hot topic online.”“Well, you gotta be rich or powerful if you want to pull chicks like magnets,” the manager said. “Or at least you gotta look like one.”“I wanted to see the president once.”“Wait until the next elections, and you’ll see him when he comes here to campaign,” the manager was saying, and just then, Shevron entered through the front door.The manager chortled. “Look, I’m seeing the president come into our store. I guess I didn’t get a good sleep last night.”“Mm?” the worker looked toward the entrance and said, “I can see him, too, sir.”And that’s when it hit them.“M-M-Mr. President!” the manager and the employee ran over to him.“I want to buy a car, but before that, I want to get changed
CHAPTER 252
Kevin returned to the car.“Don’t get in,” Sariyu told him.“Why?” he frowned. “Did something happen to the president?”“Yeah, he wet his pants,” she looked the other way. “We should stop another car.”They waited a minute.A car finally came in their direction.It was an old toyota corolla.Kevin asked for a lift, but Sariyu stopped him.“What are you doing?” she hissed at him.“Didn’t you want me to ask for a ride?” Kevin asked back.“Yeah, but look at that car? It’s a relic,” she retorted. “You expect me and the president to get into that thing?”Kevin’s eyebrows raised together. He didn’t want to argue with her, so he said, “Hey, think about it. If we go in such a car, no one will doubt us.”Just then, the car stopped.The driver, an overweight guy, looked out. “What’s the matter?”“We need a ride. There’s three of us,” Kevin said.“Ride to where?”“To the nearest car store,” Sariyu added. “That’ll do.”The driver thought about it and nodded. “Hop in.”Kevin then called for the pr
CHAPTER 251
The swarm of military drones descended.Not like birds or machines but like a storm that had chosen their targets.Red targeting beams snapped on.Hundreds of thin lines painted Kevin’s body from every angle.The hum sharpened.Then—FIRE.A barrage of bullets tore through the air.Kevin did not move.The bullets struck his upper body and shred his shirt to pieces, but they could not pierce through his skin that was tougher than steel.Kevin flexed his muscles and repelled them.The bullets flew back and struck some of the drones, but these drones tanked the bullets and kept going.Kevin moved.He blurred sideways and dodged the laser beams that struck where he had been.The drones relentlessly targeted him with laser beams, but they could not land a hit on him.He kept shifting like a dancer in the zone.And he never lost his sight of any drone.“There are too many of them,” Kevin thought. “I thought they’d come down, but they’re all attacking me from a height. How can I destroy all o
CHAPTER 250
“Your durability isn’t bad, but even a boulder will break if you strike it enough times,” the leader said. “You shouldn’t have uttered the name of that organization. Because of what you did, we’ll have to take both the president and Sariyu Shamus.”“Why? You’re gonna wipe their memories?” Kevin asked.The leader frowned visibly. “You… just how much do you know?”“Well…” Kevin got back up. “Not much, but enough to know that I can beat your ass.”“You are still talking shit after I cut open your waist,” the leader snorted. “You’re going to lose your blood every second, and I don’t even have to defeat you.”“This wound?” Kevin touched his waist. “It’s no big deal. I can fight all day with these types of wounds.”“There’s a limit to how much you can brag in a battle,” the leader leaped like a gazelle.Kevin stepped forward instead of back.The razor thin blade stabbed toward his chest.The leader thought he got his man.But Kevin caught the leader’s wrist.The blade stopped an inch from h
CHAPTER 249
The laser swords screamed toward Kevin like twin comets.One aimed for his throat, the other for his ribs.Kevin twisted sideways.The blades shaved the air so close to his skin that he felt the heat biting him.He grabbed one attacker’s wrist, pivoted on his heel, and slammed his elbow into the man’s jaw.Bone broke, and teeth flew out.But the second blade carved across Kevin’s side before he could pull away.A line of blood spilled across his shirt.Kevin staggered back three steps.“First blood of the king,” one of them sneered.Kevin pressed a hand against his side and looked at the blood on his palm. His lips curled into a sharp smile. “Good. You aren’t regularly prey. I’ll give you that.”Then he lunged.The sword thrust toward his chest.Kevin side-stepped briefly while keeping his movement forward. His fist smashed into the man’s stomach like a literal cannonball.The impact lifted the man off his feet and sent him packing into the hood of the nearest SUV with a thunderous de
