Chapter 778: In Danger
: In Danger
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Connor looked at the killer in front of him, and a hint of helplessness flashed across his eyes.
Connor and Rachel were in a desperate situation.
Connor’s right leg was injured. Although it didn’t hurt his artery, it would still affect his movement speed.
Moreover, Connor still had to protect Rachel.
Therefore, even if he could escape from the hands of the killer, Rachel would still have to die.
In Connor’s eyes, Rachel was a woman without the strength to even tie up a chicken. There was no way he could leave her here and abandon her.
“Kid, I know you’re deliberately stalling for time, but I’ve already investigated. Your bodyguard isn’t around. No one can save you now, so you’d better know your place. That way, you can suffer less…”
The assassin smiled and said to Connor.
The killer knew Connor’s situation very well. He knew that Connor had a very powerful martial artist following him all the time. This was also the reason why the killer had never made a move on Connor. It was because the killer was worried that he was not a match for Connor’s bodyguard. Instead, doing so would alert the enemy.
However, it was different in the Emperor’s Club!
Carlos Lane thought that since the Emperor’s Club was Thomas Morgan’s club and everyone in it was Thomas’s men, no one would dare to lay a hand on Connor.
Naturally, Carlos did not follow them in.
The killer seized the opportunity when Carlos was not around to attack Connor.
Connor stretched out his hand and touched his clothes. He had the pill that Jorge Yarrell had given him.
Although Connor did not know what this medicinal pill was and what would happen if he ate it, Jorge had said that if Connor was in danger, he could take this pill. This would save his life.
This pill was originally meant to be used when Connor went to Medicine Kings’ Valley.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
But at this time, Connor was already at his wits’ end.
He could only place all his hopes on this pill.
“Alright, kid, I won’t talk nonsense with you anymore. Go to hell!”
At this moment, the assassin looked at Connor and roared, then he slowly raised his right hand.
The assassin was holding a cold dagger in his hand. As long as the assassin gently waved his hand, Connor would die on the spot.
If Connor dodged, the person who would die would most likely be Rachel, who was behind Connor.
When Connor saw the assassin take out the dagger, he hurriedly took out the pill from his clothes and was about to throw it into his mouth.
However, the killer’s reaction speed was faster. When he saw Connor’s action, he hurriedly waved his hand and stabbed toward Connor’s neck.
Whoosh!
However, at this critical moment, another dagger flew out from behind Connor.
The two daggers collided, and the assassin’s dagger was sent flying.
However, the dagger that flew out from behind Connor did not stop at all. It flew directly toward the assassin.
Connor and the assassin didn’t even have time to react to what was going on!
The dagger stabbed into the killer’s chest with extreme precision, and blood gushed out.
The assassin did not expect a dagger to fly out from behind Connor, so he was extremely surprised.
The assassin stared at Connor with disbelief and shock.
The figure of a mature beauty was reflected in the killer’s pupils!
Connor stood there foolishly with an extremely shocked expression on his face. He had no idea what was going on!
It was not until Connor saw the killer fall to the ground that he subconsciously turned around to look behind him.
At this moment, there was a tall and mature beauty standing behind Connor. This beauty was none other than Rachel, who was behind Connor!
Connor stared at Rachel behind him with an incredulous expression.
“It’s been so long since I made a move. Fortunately, my cultivation hasn’t regressed!”
Rachel looked at Connor with a faint smile.
Connor looked at Rachel and could not help but gape.
After a long time, he stuttered and asked Rachel, “Did you kill this person?”
“That’s right, I killed him!”
Rachel gently nodded; her expression still very calm.
“You’re actually so strong? Are you also a martial artist?”
At this moment, Connor finally reacted. What exactly was going on? He widened his eyes and shouted.
“That’s right, I’m also a martial artist!”
Rachel gently nodded.
Connor stared at Rachel, not knowing how to describe his current mood.
Now, Connor knew that Rachel was also a martial artist. Moreover, through the way she killed the assassin, Connor could feel that she was definitely stronger than him.
“Since you’re a martial artist, why didn’t you tell me?”
Connor shouted excitedly with his eyes wide open.
“You didn’t ask me, did you?”
Rachel said placidly.
Connor looked at the expression on Rachel’s face and was unusually speechless. He didn’t even know what to say now.
If Connor had known earlier that Rachel was so capable, then he wouldn’t have rushed over to block the dagger for her.
He had never thought that Rachel, who looked weak on the surface, would actually have such terrifying skills. Moreover, she was also a martial artist.
At this moment, Connor finally understood why Rachel’s background was so terrifying!
Rachel was actually a martial artist!
“Since you’re so strong, why didn’t you tell me earlier? You even let me take the dagger for you. My thigh is still bleeding!”
Connor shouted at Rachel in despair.
“I wanted to dodge, but you were the one who wanted to block it for me. What could I have done?”
Rachel looked at Connor with a faint smile and then continued, “However, I also know from what happened just now that you are a very trustworthy ally. In such a dangerous situation, you were actually able to help me block that dagger. I’m very touched…”
Connor looked at Rachel and sighed. Then, he said helplessly, “Alright, I’m not in the mood to discuss this with you now. Now that you’ve killed this person, what are you going to do next?”
“This person was a professional assassin. Now that he died in your club, you should have a way to deal with this person, right?”
Rachel said with a smile.
When Connor heard Rachel’s words, he couldn’t help but be stunned. Then he took out his phone and dialed Kyle Hayes’s number.
