Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 481

“Damn!” Lone Wolf, who was hiding in the southeast corner, cursed, “You’re so damn good! You can even sniff out the alcohol I drank last night. Ah. Bro is right. I should quit drinking.”

Hadley was under a lot of stress at that moment.

I don’t think I would’ve discovered them if not for their terrible drinking and smoking habits. That means their hiding skills are comparable to mine. In that case, I doubt they are weak in combat. Zeke Williams is crazy. He gathered so many strong followers by his side.

Hadley was not confident that she could defeat the two of them at the same time.

However, she had come fully prepared.

Hadley took out her gun and aimed at Lone Wolf. “Release the other assassin from Necro now or let me kill him in this place. Otherwise, you will die in this place today. Don’t tell me the two of you are quicker than the bullets in my gun.”

Lone Wolf and Sole Wolf were at ease even when they were held at gunpoint.

Lone Wolf said, “No one said we are the only people here in this casino.”

“There’s more?” Hadley was at the brink of despair.

Why are they assigning so many professionals to guard a mere assassin from Necro? This is such a waste of talent and resources!

Hadley recomposed herself and concentrated on observing her surroundings.

But she did not detect any other presence in the room.

Then she sniffed around the air again.

But she did not smell anything extraordinary.

Hadley was almost certain Lone Wolf and Sole Wolf were tricking her.

They are the only people in this place. If there is a third person in this casino, I would have caught his scent. Any living person will have a unique smell on their body.

She sneered at Lone Wolf, “Hmph! Cut your act. The two of you can either die here today or release the assassin.”

Sole Wolf said, “Does that mean you fail to detect the third person’s presence?”

Hadley answered, “Bullshit! You’re obviously tricking me.”

Lone Wolf and Sole Wolf sighed simultaneously. “Bro, we admit defeat. We concede. You can come out now.”

Clap!

A crisp sound sounded from the northeast corner of the room, which happened to be closest to where Hadley was all of a sudden.

Hadley shuddered at the unexpected noise. She quickly turned to look at the southeast corner of the room.

Someone was lighting a cigarette.

The faint light from the flame partially illuminated the person’s face.

That man’s face appeared to be menacing as the flickering flame danced across his face.

Hadley’s heart skipped to her throat.

There’s really a third person in this room! And I am certain he’s much more capable than I am. At the very least, his hiding skills are better than mine. My skills are considered to be one of the best in the Necromancer Assassin Organization. But this person is even more formidable than I am. Who is he?

A surreal thought popped up in Hadley’s mind. Why do I feel as if I am being cornered? Damn you all! Why did they hire so many top-tiered individuals to guard an insignificant assassin? Perhaps these people are not here to stand guard. They were waiting for me to walk into their trap!

Hadley was frightened by that thought. Her hands tightened around the gun.

That person who was puffing on a cigarette walked out from the dark swiftly after.

Hadley exclaimed in surprise after she discerned his appearance. “It’s you! That kept-man! Why are you staying as a kept-man with those capabilities of yours? Perhaps you’re harboring an ulterior motive toward Lacey Hinton.”
