Chapter 46: Who's the Target?
He could not help but raise his brows at that, but nevertheless, he acted immediately and jumped down the trance.
The momt that Scarlet saw the person who had come over, she immediately realized that it was an emy. After all, she had already communicated with Lucas, and he was not coming over at the momt.
As for the group that they were waiting for, they were supposed to come over, but according to the fact that they had not responded until now, he believed that they were definitely afraid of coming over.
During the past few minutes, she had be trying to sd messages to them, but of them responded. It was as if they had come to an agreemt that of them was going to respond to the messages, despite both of them being online.
So, she believed that it was going to be impossible for them to come over at the momt. And now, there was another person that had come over. Due to the fact that he was acting so hastily after realizing that the two of them had noticed him, it was clear that he was not here with good inttions.
So, the momt that he landed, the two of them made a move. They rushed up the stairs, to deal with the guy. Jad was the one in the lead, considering that he was supposed to be protecting Scarlet. So of course, he could not let her take the vanguard position.
Currtly, he did not know the abilities of the emy that had appeared. Nevertheless, he hoped that the abilities of the emy were not that high, and the emy did not have a weapon.
This was the exact reason that had led him to rush up the stairs, despite knowing that by holding a lower position, he was going to be at a disadvantage wh facing the emy.
In case the emy in front of him possessed a gun, he was definitely going to be passive. So, he had to close the distance betwe the two of them as soon as possible, before giving the oppont a chance of taking out the gun, in case they had one.
Thud!
The man who had arrived landed heavily on the g. But at that momt, he realized that Jad had already arrived in front of him. So without hesitation, he launched a kick towards Jad who was finally climbing the last step of the stairs.
Wh facing the attack, Jad could not help but be surprised. Just from the speed of the attack, Jad could tell that they oppont that he was facing right now was extremely formidable. It was a good thing that currtly, he possessed intermediate combat skills.
Without hesitation, he paused his movemts, stopping going further up. Th, he immediately bt backwards slightly. Of course, he could not bd much, considering that if he did so, he was definitely going to lose his balance due to the effect of the gravity.
Immediately after bding backwards, he raised his hand, to parry the attack upwards. The momt that his hand connected with the leg of the other party, he could not help but be surprised once again wh he realized that the attack contained much more power than he had expected.
Nevertheless, he was capable of parrying the attack. The momt that he succeeded, his right foot that was on the upper step of the staircase immediately exerted strgth. Th in the next momt, Jad moved upwards, completing his movemts and arriving on the platform.
At this momt, he had already closed in on the oppont who was just managing to stabilize himself after a momt of surprise from the fact that Jad had be able to block the attack that he had launched.
Nevertheless, Jad did not give the oppont the time to attack again. Instead, the momt that he arrived on top of the platform, he launched a kick towards the emy.
The kick was heading towards the man's thighs. The speed and explosive strgth that Jad had utilized wh attacking was unimaginable, as Jad was not holding back at all at this momt.
The emy that he was facing at the momt was extremely formidable. So, it would be idiotic for him to hold back. So, wh he attacked, he attacked with his full strgth, with the inttion of taking care of the emy as soon as possible.
He did not have any information about the emy, and so, he did not know if this guy actually came over with a few companions. If that was the case, and each and every one of them was as strong as this guy, it was definitely not going to d well for him.
In the face of the attack from Jad, the man could not help but raise his brows a little. At the same time, he became extremely serious. To say the least, he was not expecting that Jad was this capable.
Nevertheless, he managed to push his body backwards, slightly dodging the attack that slightly grazed on his trousers, only touching the skin as it wt past.
Since Jad did not manage to hit the target, it was clear that he would definitely move with the momtum of the kick considering that he had attacked using his full strgth. The good thing was the fact that he was expecting that his emy was strong, and so, there was a possibility that he would be able to dodge the attack.
So, the momt that he realized that he had missed, he forcefully reduced the speed at which his leg was moving, before making it land on the g. Th using the momtum that was brought over by the movemt of his leg, he managed to throw a house kick.
Due to the fact that he had not managed to stabilize himself, he was not able to put much more power in that attack. Nevertheless, the attack was definitely not to be underestimated.
Wh facing the attack, the man raised his hands and crossed them in front of his head, making sure that each hand was on each side of his head.
Bang!
The attack landed, and the man was forced to stumble sideways. Just like Jad, he had just managed to dodge the attack, and was preparing to attack Jad. He had not expected that Jad was going to launch another attack.
So, it was impossible for him to dodge the attack this time, and could only take it head on. But nevertheless, it seemed that the strgth that the young man in front of him possessed was extremely high, and it was impossible for him to be able to block the attack while standing in the same position.
The momt that the man managed to stabilize himself, he immediately retreated a few steps backwards. At the same time, he looked at Jad siltly. Jad on the other hand wanted to attack, but he did not do so, as he continued to observe the movemts of the emy in front of him.
In case the man in front of him wanted to make a move, Jad would immediately launch an attack. His muscles at the momt were extremely tse, ready to exert strgth, to attack.
Scarlet on the other hand had arrived a little early on, but she did not participate in the battle betwe the two of them. She had already realized that she was definitely not going to be capable of matching the two of them.
Additionally, she could not help but be surprised by the fact that Jad was this skilled. It seemed that he had always be holding back, and the level of his strgth was definitely not something that she could compete against.
But ev th, a competitive spirit immediately rose in her. She dreamed to become the strongest person, stronger than ev Sylvia. But now, she had completely changed her goal, intding to train as hard as possible so that she could go beyond Jad.
Poor Scarlet. She did not know that Jad possessed a cheat, and he was basically cheating in life. The abilities that he currtly possessed were definitely not what he had acquired from training for a long time, but instead, just a reward from the system.
Jad did not know about Scarlet's thoughts, but nevertheless, he continued looking at the emy in front of him. At the same time, he could not help but wonder why the system had not giv him the mission, despite the fact that there was an emy here.
As if the system could see through his thoughts, which was actually true, a prompt appeared in front of him.
[The system only grants mission to the host if they are related to guarding the host. So, if an emy attacks and the target of the attack is not the clit that the host is protecting, th a mission will definitely not be gerated. At the d of the day, this is the bodyguard mission, and only the clit can befit from it, and so does the host, as long as the clit is attacked.]
Jad immediately frowned. It seemed that there was some kind of misunderstanding betwe them. After all, if this person was not here for Scarlet, whom could he be here for? Or could it be that he was here for the hall?
Just as Jad was contemplating on the reason why this man had attacked, the man finally decided to speak. The man himself was quite dect in appearance, with black eyes, and a bald head. He looked like a middle-aged man.
"I'm not here to kill you. Instead, I am here to ask you about something. But now, it seems that we will have to change our plans." The man stated in an indiffert tone.
