Chapter 166
Chapter 166
Dustin walked in front of the sovereign grade fighter and removed his mask.
With just one glance, his face darkened.
He could not see the fighter’s face at all. The poison had not just taken his life but had also corroded his face rapidly.
Dustin had seen this sort of poison before in his medical books. Assassination organizations often used it to kill people and silence them.
This person’s corpse would be reduced to a pool of blood within a short period of time and leave nothing behind, which also meant that Dustin would not be able to get any clues.
The knowledge was a sobering burden on him.
An organization capable of training such powerful assassins was certainly something to be feared.
Soon, a Hell Guard showed up and greeted Dustin.
“My Liege, Blake and Jennifer were ambushed,” the Hell Guard said.
Dustin did not even listen to what had happened to them. He headed straight to where the Torell siblings were.
When he arrived, Blake and Jennifer were pale, but they were not injured.
Drake stood by the side. He looked quite beaten.
“My Liege, a sovereign grade fighter appeared. He was a really difficult opponent. Both of us were severely injured, …” Drake said grimly.
If Drake was admitting something like that, the assassin sent here must have been extraordinary.
“I was incompetent and could not capture him. Please punish me as you see fit,” said Drake apologetically. He felt ashamed.
Dustin waved him off.
“He was a top assassin from a global assassination organization. That’s all there is to it. It’s not your fault,” he said indifferently.
“I know about all the assassination organizations in the world, but I’ve never seen such assassins before,” Drake said.
Dustin thought about that.
The mastermind was far too mysterious. The assassins he sent left no clues behind either. He would not be able to figure anything out like this.
“Mr. Fox, please keep us safe!” said Blake pleadingly. He was worried. “If you protect us, I’m willing to hand over the leadership of the Panther Gang!”
Dustin said nothing. He told Drake to protect Blake and his sister at all times.
He wished for the assassin to turn up again. The more times he did, the likelier he was to leave clues behind.
“Send word to the headquarters of Hell Hall to keep an eye on the movement of all assassination organizations in the world. If they find anything, they are to report to me immediately,” Dustin said.

While Dustin had his subordinates track the assassin who fled, the assassin had already fled from the Panther Gang’s territory.
He dragged his injured body to a secluded area and hid there for a long while. He remained as silent as a corpse. During that time, a few groups of people searched through the area repeatedly, but they did not find any traces of him.
When the sun rose, he left his hiding spot, removed his black subterfuge gear, and blended into the crowd like a normal person. Anyone else would be hard–pressed to find him.
The assassin walked to a bustling area in Somerton and got into an arcade.
The arcade was lively and had a specialized contact zone. He met a person here.
A person wearing half a metal mask showed up on the screen.
When he saw that something was off with the assassin, he looked shocked.
“How did the mission go?” asked the man in the mask, codenamed Metal Mask.
“I failed…” the assassin whispered in reply.
Metal Mask froze momentarily in shock.
While the Aquila family was among the top families in Lannopolis, in all of Lovellia, it was only considered a second–rate family.
With two sovereign grade fighters that were sent after them, all of them should have died already!
Only a short time had passed since they had been sent on a mission, and he was told that they had failed?
“Why did you fail?” Metal Mask asked.
“Blake and Jennifer Torell had a sovereign grade fighter protecting them. We both ended up severely injured, but I couldn’t kill them,” the assassin said. His forehead was covered in cold sweat.
Metal Mask was shocked.
After all, Somerton was a small place, and sovereign grade fighters were practically nonexistent there.
“Do you know the identity of their protector?” Metal Mask asked.
“I don’t think that person’s name is listed in the sovereign grade fighters‘ list in the Divine Hall…” The assassin did not sound certain.
Metal Mask frowned in displeasure.
“Assassin E3 has died by suicide,” the assassin whispered. He felt unsure of everything.
This time, Metal Mask was absolutely dumbfounded.
That person had made a sovereign grade fighter take his own life? How powerful was that person?
“Who is he?”
“He’s a twenty–five–year–old young man who’s from the Wyatt family of Rivenesco, Lannopolis. His name is Dustin Fox, and he was the only student of Lucas Wyatt, the previous patriarch of the Wyatt family.”
Metal Mask frowned.

Nice one...
Shitty ending but considering overall I give the book .05 out of 5 stars. You used the same plot to many times, too many translation errors, even at the end you screwed around with the font and color because who knows why, the title had nothing to do with the story do I need to continue...
Just move to the enemy and let the snipers kill him for you Dustin. Use him as your shield easy peasy Mac n cheesey....
Tell hell hall said get his ass out here now or I will kill everyone here you have 10 seconds to do what I said. 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1,0 to late...
Why does Dustin still think he owes his adoptive dad a debt? Sure he saved his life and help raise, taught martial arts etc... till his death but Dustin stayed on and put his life at risk and invested his time and money into his 5 daughters up until they came across their biological brother and kicked him out. Treat him like a thieving dog and have attempted numerous times to kill him. He finally showed some common sense by imprisoning the 1 sister and killing her cousin yet he lets the others slide. With his status and power I would have already killed them off or at the very least taken them and imprisoned them like the 1 and tortured the mom into spilling everything she knows and getting my rightful inheritance, but the author has to drag it out....
He said to mutilate the body and burn it why not start with beheading it and taking it back to show the city and place it as an offering to his family? That's what a great MC would have done....
Lame you change the name of the characters and use the same ole trope how many time are you going to use it? First it was the Langley sisters, then the McCall girl I believe this is the second or third time with Shawna. You need new material author...
Oh my not the weak who the MC showed mercy by not killing him because of some honor bound duty to a dead guy makes a comeback and forces the MC into a corner before the mc finally kills him arc 🤣...
🤣 now this is better just because I took her virginity doesn't mean I'm responsible for her. Love it....
When will he introduce his one eye willy for them to pet, stroke and kiss?...
