The crimson afterimage shot forward like a lightning bolt tearing through the night, moving with a speed that surpassed the limits of visual perception.
Before the figure even arrived, a pressure as heavy as a mountain had already descended.
It was as if an invisible giant hand had tightly gripped every inch of space in front of the Emperor's palace, paving the way for this long-planned, deadly strike!
Five figures.
All of them were Hero Rank powerhouses carefully trained by the Killer Guild!
Before taking action, they knew well that Aurek would be surrounded by formidable protectors.
Their original mission was to cooperate with Elder Bloodblade to hold back and distract the guards.
Now, though Elder Bloodblade was engaged with a powerful enemy, he had successfully drawn the attention of most of the palace's defenders.
They had no choice but to take a risk and infiltrate the heart of the palace, striking with a thunderous blow to the Emperor.
