Chapter 836 Beauty and Poison

"Who the hell are you? Show yourself, fucker!" Those men looked around and shouted.

"As you wish." Maximilian stepped out and said.

"Well, you think you are a tough guy, don't you?" The man threatened Maximilian with a kitchen knife in his hand, "Fuck off, and mind your own business, loser!"

Maximilian plainly answered, "Not until you guys let the girl go."

"Shut up!" Those men were obviously ignited by Maximilian and shouted at him with a sullen look on their faces.

"Let's just not waste our time and take him down, boss!" Said one of the fellows.

"Sure thing. I could even take down dozens of men provided the knife was in my hand. That why everyone called me a high hand good at using kitchen knife as a weapon years ago!" The leading man licked his mouth and grinned evilly.

"Hail Eli!" The men behind him then highly raised their arms and applauded for boosting his morale.

The girl turned to Maximilian and yelled, "No, my knight! Just leave as soon as you can!"

The weird and old-fashioned title heard from the girl seemed dumbed Maximilian. However, Maximilian chose to forget about it and focus on the man standing in front.

Eli, looking at Maximilian in his eyes and breaking out into a cold sweat on his forehead, was actually not willing to fight. While he had no choice but to do so since he had to get the job done.

Finally, he gritted his teeth, raised his knife above his head and rushed to Maximilian. On the other hand, Maximilian was standing still as before and seemed not going to move a bit.

Both Eli and his fellows were wondering why he was just standing and looking. Was he scared, stiffened with fear, or hiding his true strength?

It was the moment when Eli was one meter away from Maximilian that Maximilian bent down and kicked down Eli with a leg-sweep. Eli then uncontrollably fell to the ground together with his knife.

Stretching on the ground, Eli could barely tell what was going on just now because the moves of Maximilian were so fast that his eyes could hardly catch up with them.

In a second, Maximilian bounced up and stomped on Eli's back. A clear sound of crack was at the same time heard from the inside of the Eli's body. It was obvious that the strike of Maximilian had broken Eli's ribs.

Eli's fellows were frightened by the strength of Maximilian and felt lucky not to get involved. The overwhelming pain of his broken ribs made Eli cry on the ground and thought that the loss of this job really outweighed the gain.

Though the girl first looked at Maximilian with admiring eyes after everything was done, a sense of evilness suddenly flashed cross her eyes.

"Please forgive me, sir! Just let me and my men go!" Eli cried out, begging for mercy from Maximilian.

Maximilian raised his feet, and Eli soon scrambled up, left his weapon and got away along with his fellows. He then turned to the girl, and when he looked at her, he was kind of amazed by her wild beauty.

"It seems that you are from the west of the country, lady." Maximilian said curiously, looking at the girl's face and her exotic clothes.

"You are right, dear mister." Answered the girl as she slowly and secretly reached into her pocket.

As Maximilian turned around and showed his back to the girl, the girl turned into a spiteful look, took out a blend blade and was about to attack Maximilian sneakingly.

No one around them would dare to yell out to remind Maximilian seeing the vicious look in the girl's eyes. However, it was the moment when the western girl was about to attack him that Maximilian bowed down to pick up something and was about to turn around, leaving the girl no chance to continue. She then quickly put back her blade as if nothing had actually happened.

Maximilian picked up the phone on the ground, gave it back to the girl and said, "I think this is yours."

The sudden move of Maximilian disconcerted the plan of the girl, leaving her in bewilderment and not knowing what to do next. "Well, I think you are safe now. It's time for me to go."

The western girl subconsciously went to the side of Maximilian and asked, "Wait, what's your name? I'm Grace Barnes."

"I'm Maximilian." Said Maximilian, turning to Grace again, "By the way, why are they after you?"

"I don't know. They just fixed their eyes on me and kept following me." Answered Grace.

"Really? It sounds like they're just a group of hooligans hunting for beauties." It seemed that Maximilian had figured out something while conversing with her.

Suddenly, Grace saw a man in black standing not far away and urging her to finish the job.

"Thank you for saving me, Maximilian. While forgive me," Grace took out a little bottle of liquid from her pocket and splashed it on Maximilian, "I have to do this."

Though Maximilian had subconsciously dodged, the green viscous liquid was still splashed on his arm, and soon the liquid had eroded his skin and made it become squamous.

Maximilian looked at the girl, silently. The girl plainly said, "Sorry, I'm just doing my job. Within an hour, you will die of this kind of poison from the west."

"Impressive. It is even comparable to that from Mia Territory." Maximilian laughed and said.

Seeing that Maximilian was not in fear at all, Grace was confused. At that moment, she saw the man in black not far away raise his pistol and shoot a middle-aged man dressed as exotically as her.

With a single shot rang out, the man fell down, and such scenes shook and stunned Grace, making her uncontrollably step backwards and be about to fall down.

Maximilian went up to support her, and soon located the man with gun.

"Those bastards! How dare they break their promises!" Grace gritted her teeth and said in a resentful tone.

At that moment, the suited man turned his gun right to Grace, and seemed like he was going to kill her too.
