I Am the Ruler of All

Chapter 324

"They're all armed and dangerous! I don't think they care who you are!" Serena smiled seductively. "And you're a regiment commander, aren't you? Just leave and come back with reinforcements!"

"Yeah, in Seavale! I'm miles away from my turf!" Paige pursed her lips.

"Cleapolis' northern urban village is due south from where we are, and Diosna's southern rural area is due north. Maybe I can get someone from Solaris to bust us out?" Paige shook her head. "No. We're under different districts. General Ignatov won't help us out for private reasons, unless we have permission."

Serena accepted her fate and smiled. "You should leave, Paige. It's too late for reinforcements now. I'm a killer. We dance with death every day, and sometimes we fall. I knew this was coming."

As she spoke, she teared up. "Paige, if you see Kingsley next time, tell him I can't get him his car anymore. Tell him I've always loved him."

"Serena—" A gunshot flew through the air and smashed the glass window before Paige could finish. Shard flew everywhere, drawing lines of blood on the ladies' bodies. Paige gnashed her teeth. "Nobody's staying behind, Serena. We live and die together!"

Someone in the yard whispered, "Hey, boss. I don't hear anything. There's no way a woman can stay so quiet after that gunshot."

"She's no ordinary woman! She's an assassin! She almost killed Mr. Norton!" someone hissed. "Look alive, lads! I don't want you dying to a girl, hear that?" NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

Serena's assassination failed last time, but she managed to take out one of Xanxus' most trusted lieutenants, so these guys knew how skilled and cruel this woman could be.

While the men were wasting their time in the yard, the ladies had snuck out through the backdoor. The house might be dilapidated, but it had a secret backdoor that led to the woods. That was why Serena chose to hide in this house.

"Where did you park your car, Paige?" Serena was bent over and leaning against the wall. She whispered, "How much further?" Her forehead was covered in sweat, but she looked calm.

"Not much further." Paige pointed at the woods. "It's right—"

She shut up and made a gesture to tell Serena they had company ahead. Xanxus' men had noticed Paige's car as well, and they had sent two guys to guard it, just in case Serena tried to escape in it. They might be hiding in the forest, but Paige still saw them. She could see through enemy units even when they were in Ghillie suits, and that was on the battlefield, not to mention these lackeys, who had no idea about camouflaging.

Serena pointed to her left and right. She wanted Paige and her to flank the men and pin them down.

Paige nodded and tiptoed to the other side. The ladies might be alluring and adorable, but one of them was a cold-blooded killer, while the other was a commander who had survived the battlefields. Taking down one enemy unit was as easy as pie for them.

The breeze brushed across the woods, rustling the leaves in the trees.

One of the men in the bushes asked his companion nervously, "Did you hear that, Buford?"

Buford shook his head. "It's just the wind. Stop overreacting, Ga—" Buford's eyes widened, for he saw an alluring silhouette popping up behind his friend. She was none other than Serena.
