Chapter 231 - 107 Red Baron 3
This small mistake was not a big issue.
After all, demons pay no attention to such light footprints, and most of them had been attracted to another direction.
The forest was so vast that it was not easy to be found.
But the one who found it was Leonard Churchill.
When he saw the footprints, he was already a hundred percent certain of his judgment.
“It seems that young Master Kane is not far away…”
Leonard Churchill muttered to himself.
After observing the direction of the footprints, he did not delay and continued to pursue them.
He was not worried about traps or anything of the sort.
Setting up traps on the road would risk getting triggered by the demons, thus revealing their position.
It would be a loss.
In no time, Leonard Churchill suddenly stopped running.
His wolf eyes filled with vibrant blue light stared at the pitch-black dense forest ahead, revealing a sense of seriousness.
The Wolfman’s heightened sense of danger made him aware that the crisis was closing in.
“Been discovered?”
Leonard Churchill felt that he had hidden himself very well, but he was not surprised to be discovered.
He had seen the tactics of the Fierce Beast Legion before, and it would be strange if he remained undetected after getting so close.
“Must be a stealth assassin…”
Leonard Churchill’s eyebrows raised slightly.
Such proficiency in hiding could only belong to a skilled assassin.
But if the opponent did not initiate the attack, he would find it hard to discover them.
Leonard Churchill could not afford to let his guard down.
Those who stayed beside Young Master Kane would be the elite of the elites; the moment he exposed himself, he might be taken out by an inexplicable technique.
But right now, the one sneaking around was not Leonard himself.
Since he suspected that he had encountered someone, he was already sure that the people of the Fierce Beast Legion were nearby.
Therefore…
The rest would be left to the Demon Corps!
Thinking of something, Leonard Churchill grinned and suddenly took out his signal gun. He fired twice into the dense forest.
Not bullets, but flares!
“Biu~”
“Biu~”
Two flares exploded in the forest and another broke through the canopy, illuminating the sky.
In a blink, white light brightened a large area nearby.
It also brightened the astonished eyes of the two stealth assassins!
At the same time, two kilometers away, under the cover of the relics, over twenty people who were moving in secret were also greatly shocked.
Looking at the sky, the dazzling flare lit up, the fox-like commander of the Fierce Beast Legion had an ashen face, surprised and furious: “How is that possible…”
As soon as the flare went off, he knew that their position had been exposed.
And his roundabout strategy was ruined!
Without a doubt, it must have been the work of the person who had infiltrated their ranks earlier.
“Damn it, how did that guy know?”
The face of the fox-like commander was deathly pale.
Sawtooth Forest is so big, how could anyone accurately track us?
They had sacrificed more than a dozen teams as cover to get here.
They thought they had tricked the demonic spies.
They didn’t expect to be cornered by two flares.
For a moment, he even suspected there might be an issue within their own legion.
But now there was no time to consider this.
Their position had been made known, and hiding no longer had any meaning.
The fox-like commander roared: “Everyone prepare for battle!”
On the other side, after firing the two shots, Leonard Churchill also revealed his position.
The two assassins lurking nearby no longer continued to hide, but decisively rushed toward him.
If they didn’t quickly kill this guy, the trouble would be bigger in the back.
One in front and one behind, their forms were swift as specters.
This was the advanced body technique of the assassins, the Phantom Step, which seemed like teleportation during short-distance rushes.
Before Leonard Churchill could even put down the flare gun in his hand, the assassins’ poisoned daggers were already at his neck and heart.
It was considered top-tier existence in the first-tier card masters, whether in terms of cooperation or strength.
However, facing the two incoming opponents, Leonard Churchill was not anxious at all, his eyes reflecting a flicker of light.
The blade was about to pierce the skin.
With a swish, Leonard Churchill’s figure disappeared on the spot.
On a second look, the tall body of the werewolf had incredibly appeared behind the assassin, and then the wolf claws fiercely struck down.
In that instant, it felt as though time had slowed down a hundred-fold.
With an impassive face, Leonard Churchill slammed the assassin into the ground, sending pebbles flying.
With his hand in action, the sharp wolf claws emitted a chilling glint as they plunged into the uncovered neck of the assassin.
Blood beaded and sprayed out in an instant, floating slowly in the air.
A faint crunch of bone breaking was heard.
On the other side,
The assassin, who failed to hit with a single blow, was mid-air and his eyes widened: so fast!
Leonard Churchill lifted his head, giving him a cold glance. While he severely hit the assassin beneath him, his hand was already free.
Clearly, the actions of the two assassins seemed to be slowed down, but the blade in Leonard Churchill’s hand seemed unaffected and remained fast.
With a backhand, he stabbed the prepared assassin in front of him in the neck.
At this moment, it was as if time had just returned to normal.
With a thud, the muffled sound of the assassin being crushed to the ground was finally emitted from the ground.
With a spray, blood splattered wildly.
Almost at the same instant, it happened.
One assassin lay lifeless on the ground, and the other’s neck was spewing blood.
Leonard Churchill stood calmly at the scene, holding a bloody surgical knife in his hand.
Leonard Churchill instantly killed the two, glanced at the bodies and showed little emotion.
Such elite assassins may have been a huge threat when he first entered the space.
He would feel a chill on his skin when facing them.
But now, he did not have such feelings.
Even if these two assassins had already reached the peak of the first tier, their agility attribute was probably only around thirty points.
Leonard Churchill, after his beastly transformation, had over forty points in agility attribute, surpassing the average second-tier Curse Card Master!
