The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 440

Chapter 440 

Josef’s heart leaped joyfully as he witnessed Victoria swiftly eliminate the obstacles. Seizing the opportunity, he emerged from his hiding spot and charged forward. 

“Make a run for it!” 

Victoria stood protectively by Josef’s side as they made a daring dash toward the door. 

“Thought you could escape, huh?” 

“Aim and shoot!” 

The mercenaries standing guard outside the gate fixed their icy gaze on Victoria and Josef as they charged forward. Without hesitation, they raised their guns and unleashed a relentless storm of bullets, intent on stopping them at all costs. 

Gunshots echoed through the air, creating a symphony of metallic clangs. 

Victoria swiftly raised her blade, forming a protective shield for Josef from any harm. 

Victoria was a one-star General expert, showcasing remarkable mastery even with cold weapons. Her knowledge was awe-inspiring, delivering devastating strikes and defending with unwavering strength. She was an unstoppable force, leaving no room for compromise in her defense. 

Her blade and shield effortlessly deflected even the relentless onslaught of bullets. 

“What the heck, is that Deadpool? Did a character from Marvel comics just come to life?” 

The sight before them left the onlookers dumbfounded, their eyes wide with disbelief. 

Expertly blocking bullets with a blade was a feat accomplished by only a few experts. By keenly observing their opponent’s shoulder movements, they could anticipate the direction of the gunfire and promptly deflect it. 

Yet, with a fast rotation of the blade, they transformed it into a makeshift shield, effectively warding off the hail of bullets. 

It was an unbelievable feat, beyond anything anyone could have imagined! 

Not only were the ordinary folks in awe, but even the gun-wielding mercenaries stood frozen in disbelief. 

“Take them down!” 

Amidst the mercenaries’ stunned disbelief, their fingers frozen on the triggers, Victoria burst forward like an unstoppable 

storm. 

The blade shimmered! 

A swift and fleeting flash! 

The mercenaries all met a brutal demise, their heads severed and lifeless bodies strewn across the ground. 

In a blink of an eye, in a mere ten seconds, Victoria unleashed her fury, taking down eighteen mercenaries with lightning speed. She carved a path of blood, cutting through the enemy forces. 

She moved with the speed and grace of a cheetah, her actions precise and fluid, radiating a captivating blend of beauty and raw power. 

Victoria’s eyes darted around with unwavering vigilance. With her sword firmly held, she sternly commanded, “Mr. Josef, let’s get moving, and let’s do it fast!” 

“Alright, Victoria, once we escape this time, I promise to give you a raise.” 

Josef’s face lit up with delight, and he wasted no time dashing toward the door. 

He had shelled out a jaw-dropping six million dollars annual salary to secure Victoria as his bodyguard, thinking he had gotten quite a steal. 

Now, witnessing the sheer terror of Victoria’s unleashed power, he couldn’t help but burst with delight. 

This hefty six million dollars investment paid off handsomely! 

He was willing to offer not just six million dollars but even 10 million dollars or 20 million dollars to ensure his survival and make it out alive. 

Just as Josef was on the verge of making his escape, a sudden shift in the atmosphere caught Victoria’s attention. Her face hardened with concern as she swiftly shifted her gaze to the left. 

Ablinding streak of sword light cut through their line of sight. 

It was swift, vicious, and unstoppable! 

The figure closed in on Victoria in a split second, forcing her to instinctively raise her blade for defense.
