Quentin possessed a chillingly icy voice that sent shivers down the spine. His gaze exuded a sinister energy and a palpable thirst for blood, like a predator stalking its prey. He emanated a real sense of danger, filling the air with menacing energy that left everyone on edge.
Even Primate couldn’t help but feel a sense of intimidation when confronted with Quentin’s unfiltered and menacing
energy.
Despite being just a lowly captain within the ranks of the mercenary group, he knew that Quentin, always lurking, had the potential to replace him at any given moment.
Hence, he dared not provoke Quentin, cautioning, “Quentin, cut the nonsense. Let’s wait for Mr. Payne’s orders.”
Quentin’s rage boiled over as he jabbed a finger at Haylan, “You better watch yourself!”
Haylan remained unmoved, his icy gaze locked onto Quentin as if staring at a lifeless body.
If it weren’t for the risk of revealing his true identity and inviting unnecessary complications, this lowly mercenary would have wasted no time in cutting down the insolent fool who dared to provoke him.
“Alright, go back to your position, and don’t interfere with Mr. Payne’s plan!” Primate said in a deep, commanding voice. Quentin seethed with anger, but upon hearing the words ‘Mr. Payne, he reluctantly swallowed his pride and returned to his position, no longer causing a further commotion.
However, his gaze toward Haylan still brimmed with menacing energy.
Only then did Primate turn his gaze toward Haylan, his eyes narrowing with a chilling intensity as he spoke, “Ben, have you gone mad?”
“At a time like this, no longer any prey belongs to you.”
“These individuals are the wealth of our organization, the Bloody Devil!”
“You can have all the wealth, but this woman belong to me. Haylan declared.
Primate’s expression hardened as he walked over, luis voice low and intense. “Ben, have you lost your mind today? Quentin’s cousin is highly respected in Mr. Payne’s inner circle.”
“You’re playing with fire by going after his woman, right?”
Haylan couldn’t help but let out a chuckle at those words.
Mercenaries have always been an organization that valued strength above all else. Still, it was laughable to see how these personal connections played a role within the ranks of the Bloody Devil.
While speaking, Primate glanced at Christine, and a slight shift in his gaze was evident.
This woman was undoubtedly stunningly beautiful, captivating hearts with her irresistible charm.
No wonder she had Quentin and Ben at each other’s throats, willing to shred their bonds in a fierce competition!

Primate took a deep breath, channeling his energy as he pushed down his desires. He locked eyes with Haylan and spoke firmly, “While the woman may hold allure, life takes precedence. I’ve said my piece; now it’s up to you to make your own choice.”
With those final words, he turned on his heel and made his exit.
After they had all left, Haylan spoke softly, comforting her, “Don’t worry, I’m here with you. Everything will be alright.” Christine instinctively shrunk back and sought shelter behind Haylan.
“Get over here!”
Haylan assumed an exaggeratedly rough demeanor as he snatched Christine, escorting her forcefully to a spot near the window. Setting Christine down carefully, he spoke hushedly, “You stay put here, and don’t worry. I might have to step out for a while.”
Knowing that Reign was under the protection of Xander, he figured there wouldn’t be any significant issues. However, he still felt a lingering unease and had the urge to go and see for himself.
“Don’t leave me. If you go now, I’ll be doomed Christine’s eyes filled with terror as she tightly grabbed Haylan’s clothing. unwilling to let go..

Fletcher’s eyes gleamed like a cold blade as he sneered, “We, the Bloody Devils, have been plotting this for ages. Without our cunning orchestration, do you think the high and mighty Zabel family could have pulled off this extravagant gathering?”
“Now that things have gone awry, they believe they can simply run away? Well, how utterly naive!”
He smirked coldly, his face shrouded in unsettling darkness.
“Mr. Yuler, what’s our course of action now?” one of the mercenaries inquired.
“Relax, let’s make our way to the casino. That’s where the real action is about to kick off, and I can’t wait any longer.” Fletcher’s face twisted into a sinister grin as he turned to the mercenaries behind him. He spoke in a deep, menacing voice, “Keep a tight watch on everyone. If a single person goes missing, I’ll personally hold every one of you responsible!”

“Expert? Can you tell that just from their footsteps?”
Sybil turned her head, her eyes wide with amazement and disbelief. She remarked with a sense of wonder. “It seems Mr. Sullivan’s s were not exaggerating. The experts from Longhard Kingdom are remarkable, with everyone displaying extraordinary skills.”
“Forget about them. Hurry, come with me. Let’s find a hiding spot and wait to see how things unfold.”
Xander made a quick decision, pulling the two women along as he hurried to a nearby location, seeking refuge.
As they sought refuge, the sound of the explosion sent a collective shiver down the spines of everyone in the casino. Their faces turned ashen, and screams echoed through the air.

The situation descended into utter chaos, with panic spreading like wildfire.
Josef, who was among the crowd in the casino, was struck with terror at the sight. Frantically, he turned to his bodyguard and pleaded, “Hurry, find a way to get me out of here, now!”
The bodyguard he had brought along was a formidable middle-aged woman named Victoria Morgan. Possessing immense strength and skill, she was a one-star General expert.
Victoria had an impressive background as a mercenary on the extraterritorial battlefield, accumulating vast combat experience.
He had unwavering faith in Victoria, confident she would be his ticket to escape from the chaotic scene.
“Mr. Josef, come with me.”
Victoria’s gaze turned icy as she drew her concealed battle knife. With quick precision, she guided Josef through an adjacent side door.
A heavily armed contingent stood their ground at the side exit’s doorway. Eight mercenaries opened fire, mercilessly gunning down numerous fleeing individuals.
“Get the hell outta here!” Victoria bellowed with authority.
She skillfully used her blade as a shield, deflecting the bullets fired by the attackers.
With lightning speed, she dashed forward and materialized before the group of eight mercenaries..

The eight mercenaries’ eyes widened in terror as their pupils constricted in fear.
Whoosh!
But before they could even blink, Victoria took the initiative and struck first.
