An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 2150

Dustin didn't dodge when the three assassins attacked him. He simply lifted his foot and lightly stomped the ground.

A dull thud resounded as his foot left a deep imprint in the ground.

At the same time, a surge of powerful energy burst forth from his body, and it quickly formed a translucent protective shield in front of him.

The three assassins swung their swords, but they struck the shield instead.

A low hum filled the air, accompanied by a deep rumble.

Despite their relentless efforts, the assassins couldn't breach the shield. All they managed to do was push it back by a mere three inches.

Dustin's protective shield was as strong as steel wire mesh. Even when swords pierced and bent it, it remained intact.

"What?" The man in black's face went white when he saw his attacks weren't working.

After taking a miracle cure earlier, he reached the level of grandmaster. Armed with a shadowsteel sword, he was accompanied by two elites halfway to becoming grandmasters.

The man in black thought Dustin wouldn't stand a chance against their attacks without strong defensive gear.

To his surprise, Dustin could effortlessly block their attacks with only his energy armor. It left him wondering just how powerful Dustin really was.

"Break it!"

The man in black refused to back down. With a furious roar, he summoned all his energy and thrust forward with all his might to break through Dustin's defense.

The other two assassins aided the attack upon seeing this.

The three swords trembled violently and unleashed waves of sword aura toward the protective shield. As the tips of the swords pressed against the translucent barrier, they edged closer to Dustin's chest, now a mere foot away.

The three assassins clenched their teeth and gripped the sword hilt tightly as they kicked against the ground with all their might, aiming to intensify their assault.

However, the protective shield remained intact despite the ground crumbling beneath them and sweat drenching their faces.

Dustin didn't even budge an inch and stood there with a calm expression.

After a minute of stalemate, he finally made a move. He slowly raised his hand and flicked at the protective shield before him.

A powerful shockwave surged as the shield erupted with a thunderous explosion.

The three swords immediately shattered into fragments. The assassins were hurled six miles away and landed hard on the ground, coughing up blood.

They were left incapacitated, unable to rise to their feet.

"You probably won't be able to kill Aldric with your skills," Dustin said. He stood with his hands behind his back and looked at the three assassins.

Although Aldric may come off as arrogant, he possessed exceptional swordsmanship and had achieved advanced cultivation. At a young age, he had already attained the rank of grandmaster.

After all, the man in black was the only assassin who could be considered a grandmaster, while the other two were far from reaching that level.
