Chapter 86 Lethal Defiance

It was way too quiet

Their private encrypted channel was a total graveyard.

Every single operator seemed to have vanished into thin air without a trace.

It took them a minute to realize the boss hadn’t checked in, instantly putting them on high alert.

The two scouts guarding the entrance traded a sharp look in the dark.

Their features hardened as they aggressively backed away from the main road.

It wasn’t that they were giving up their tactical ambush.

But the escalating crisis left them with absolutely no choice.

Finched

If their internal command node was blown, maintaining a watch at the village throat was completely useless.

They had to double back and figure out exactly what went wrong.

“You think that Powell chick is actually running a fast one on us?

“God d*mmit, we need to locate the Carter kid and drag him out right now.

“Let’s double back to the compound and check out the situation!”

Their voices dripped with malice, dropping their playful banter about Isabella to pour out pure rage.

At the end of the day, these men were nothing but cold–blooded killers.

They could maintain a smooth composure as long as they held all the leverage.

But the split second they flagged a compromise, the predatory cruelty in their eyes surfaced with full force.

Tightening their grips on their live firearms, they took massive strides, racing straight back into the village.

As their heavy silhouettes came charging down the trail, Isabella’s eyes turned to absolute ice.

Melding into the shadows where the path narrowed, she held her line until they breached her sector. launching an immediate ambush.

“Who the-”

A heavy impact resounded across the trail.

Feached

The blunt weapon struck with enough kinetic power to crack his ribs, pinning the operator flat against the dirt.

He let out a succession of shrill, agonizing screeches.

Without a trace of emotion softening her gaze, Isabella closed the gap, pinning her captured blade straight against the remaining shooter’s sternum.

“Hands where I can see them.”

Despite her clear leverage, the operator refused to throw his hands up and submit.

A vicious glint danced in his eyes as he sized up her petite frame, counting on his massive physical bulk and close–quarters training to overpower her.

“You got some decent tricks, b*tch.

“But if you think a little girl can push me around, you are dead wrong!”

Snarling with rage, his heavy frame lunged straight toward her coordinates.

He paid zero attention to the triangular blade pinned against his chest.

There was zero chance in his mind that a coddled princess would ever have the guts to bury live steel into human flesh.

Even if she tried to follow through, what could she actually execute?

How deep could a teenager even drive a blade?

With those slender arms, she’d be lucky to score a minor scratch.

The man was a seasoned powerhouse, fully confident he could snap her arm like a twig the exact second she made a move.

As for her earlier flawless neutralization metrics, he wrote them off as flashy martial arts stunts designed for a rich girl’s game, completely looking down on her threat level.
