1631 Yu's End
Like lightning, one person piggybacked Nicolas while 4 others accompanied them out.
Each unit had its own medical team, no matter where they chose to begin their attacks.
"This is A1-Prime, calling all A1-medical staff on standby for emergency operation. Victim is Sir Nicolas Kelper. Age, 31."
This was an energy situation, and they didn't have time to dilly-dally. Thus, Landon explained all the visible external injuries he spotted. When Nicolas reaches the surface floor, the medical team will take him away with medical stretchers.
They had to time his rescue well since the heavy winds were still not over. And I'm the matter of the prison, they also had a lot to consider.
This prison didn't belong to them, so they didn't know much of its prisoners that were here before Adonis's attacks.
Nonetheless, they couldn't leave things as they were. So whether a captive was a true criminal or an outright citizen being to Soma didn't matter.
They only freed the heavily injured prisoners for medical assistance and those Payne recognized.
As for everyone else, they will have to stay out until the war officially ends. It is then that they would start sorting the identities of these people. According to Payne, all Riverre prisoners had files, as should be. So they would go through them to separate the innocent from the guilty.
Of course, Colin, Brentford, and the others that Payne recognized and freed should also be able to identify their subordinates locked up here.
Sure enough, as they passed, the duo would stop them occasionally, pointing at several others too.
Alright…. Time to speed things up.
Their reunion was good and all, but there was still a war outside.
Payne tightened his grip on his sword sheath, feeling the need to release his turbulent emotions. How can he be happy when they haven't caught the main leader running operations here?
Everyone they met worked underneath that one man.
From Colin's information, they called him Kardinal Yu. As for his description, they also had that too. The information was passed to every single Baymardian scattered across the entire Riverre.
No matter where he is hiding, so long as it's in Riverre, he's destined to be captured.
Hehehhehehe~
Several giants clashed their fists provocatively.
It's time they find the dear Kardinal.
...
Ahhhhhhhh~"
Kardinal Yu heard the ear-deafening cries of his men but didn't move an inch. He was hiding under several dead bodies within the wall.
Dammit!
What sort of monstrous enemy have they made for themselves? Kardinal Yu wanted to curse but dared not open his mouth.
How to escape?
Boom!
The thunderous sound mapped out again, sending an oddly primitive warning at the back of his mind.
His Kardinal senses were tingling. And he felt that should he move, he would be caught in a split second.
However, he couldn't stay here all the time, could he?
Kardubal Yu knew more than any that the best time for an escape was now and not later.
The more his people die, the freer these villainous intruders.
Soon, they will start checking all dead bodies, perhaps slicing off the heads of all who died, lest someone gets 'resurrected.'
That was how they, Adonis's warriors, and several other people in this world handled matters after the war. So was it when the war was over that he would be thinking of freeing himself?
Alright. He was going to do it… It was now or never, Kardibal Yu told himself while feeling his chest grow tight.
He slowly opened his eyes into a thin squint and carefully observed his surroundings.
F***! Why were there 5 intruder guards standing not too far from him? Dear Adonis... Was this some kind of joke?
'No. No. No... I can still do it. I need to eliminate the closest one without the others noticing.'
[Baymardians with heat goggles]: (-_-)
His title as a Kardinal wasn't for naught. He was even better than many assassins in the world.
Very slowly, he raised his body and slowly got to his feet.
At this moment, it seemed like he vanished. Technique and experience had taught him how to make use of every little detail in a room. And the closer he got to his target, the creepier his smile became.
'I've got you now.'
Yu's hands moved like flexible spears as he plunged them without mercy. But to his surprise, the guard suddenly ducked, swirling around and blocking his attack.
He has been discovered. He had to finish his fast, giving the guard no energy to yell.
Pah! Pah! Pah! Pah!
The duo moved crazily, each blocking attacks from the other. Legs flared, hands moved, and bodies swirled as they attacked in utter silence.
Swish!
The Baymardian's cheek was struck to the left. And when he turned his face, one could see a freshly made slash mark and a thin strip of blood slowing down his cheeks.
Hahahahaha~
Yu was ecstatic, seeing as he got the damn bastard good.
'If I increase my strength, I should be able to finish him, switch clothes, and vanish.'
A moment of shock flashed across his face. He had to admit that against Yu, he was struggling to maintain his form.
He, Captain Osman, was struggling against this Kardianal. Osman clenched his fist, not satisfied with his results.
If he wanted to fight noisily, he would be on an equal footing with the Kardinal. But his sent battle made him aware of how lacking his assassin techniques and skills were.
There was a big gap... One he wasn't pleased about.
When he got back, he would double his training. But for now, it was time to end this.
Kardinal Yu was shocked, seeing his opponent's change in fighting style.
F***!
This bastard will alert the others this way.
Osman grabbed Yu's attacking hand, lifting himself in the air and smacking Yu in the face with his knee.
Ahhh!
You son of a b**ch!
Yu was furious after seeing his own. He threw his hands up but was again used as a pole by the disposable Osman.
What the hell was this? Are you a monkey? Yu has never seen a fighting style like this. Do men need to train such flexibility?
'Aren't you ashamed? Do you still call yourself a man?'
Yes. [Osman]
'...'
