The Deadly Assassin Robin novel Chapter 239

Chapter 239 The Hellclaw
"Urghh!"

In that split second, Talia let out a desperate scream.

Like a fierce leopard, she swiftly drew her military dagger and raised it to block the assassin's incoming dagger, bracing for one last struggle.

A thunderous clang rang out as the two blades collided, sending sparks flying.

However, it was clear that Talia's strength was no match for the burly assassin before her.

The dagger slipped from her grasp and clattered to the ground.

A wave of panic gripped Talia. "F*ck! I'm done for!"

In that instant, she caught sight of more cold, lethal auras closing in from all sides—both to her left and right, and even behind her.

The assassins who had been lurking nearby were now charging at Vera and Robin.

The advancing killers quickly knocked down Tobias and Dustin when they attempted to intervene.

That's it! It's over!

Despair washed over Talia as she glanced desperately toward Vera.

She had never imagined that during this mission in Harmonfield, not only would she fail to apprehend the assassins, but she might also lose her own life here.

The thought that she would have to watch the target be murdered right before her eyes was unbearable!

Such humiliation had never plagued her throughout her years in this profession.

No matter how unwilling she was, there was nothing she could do.

In that moment, the assassin's blade was dangerously close to her neck.

Just a fraction of a second, and it would be all over!

Just as Talia braced for her final moments, a loud crash echoed through the air.

What unfolded before her was astonishing.

Robin had wrapped his arms around Vera.

With a casual wave of his hand, he sent the muscular Rashea assassin hurtling backward, as if he had collided with a truck.

"Thud!" He crashed into a tree across from a restaurant, falling to the ground with a thump.

His massive body lay twitching, every bone shattered within.

The assassin lay on the ground, twitching like a pile of mush.

Was this some kind of illusion?

The other four assassins reacted. The two at the front were thrown back as if they had hit a steel wall, howling in pain.

The remaining two came to an abrupt halt, their eyes locked onto Robin in shock.

Grizz, a Rashea assassin, teamed up with them.

He was reputed to be the strongest and most ruthless member of their organization.

Yet Grizz couldn't withstand a light blow from Robin.

Could this seemingly ordinary young man be a hidden combat expert?

After a brief moment of horror, the two assassins took a step closer and asked, "Brother, which path do you walk?

"We are assassins from Hellclaw. You've ruined our mission; do you not fear Hellclaw's retribution?

"Hellsclaw? What's that?" With a smirk, Robin patted the startled Vera in his arms.

His gaze drifted toward two shadowy figures lurking in the crowd.

He felt their faint, concealed presences and was in the middle of gathering all of their strength.

Those two were preparing to launch a lethal strike at any moment.

When Robin first entered the restaurant, he had discovered a few hidden assassins.

At the time, he thought they were members of the Dark Night Alliance benefiting from the Phoenix Vanguard's bounty.

Now, it seemed purely coincidental.
