Chapter 86 Hector Runs Away
Chapter 86 Hector Runs Away
Radmilo decided to leave the wooden house as soon as possible. He recalled the times when the IRO had ordered him to kill people. They advised him to have no worries.
The IRO had a solution for every issue they had. And Radmilo had no clue about it. Most people in IRO did not trust each other even though they could work well together.
As a result, some people created circles in the IRO and only shared their secrets with their circle. Radmilo and Maido joined in the same circle. It was a group of influential individuals without any privileges.
Although the IRO trusted Radmilo to handle the dirty work, it did not follow that they gave him full access to the organization. He was sure that everyone was hiding their full power.
The IRO would put one of those people in the wooden house. If he did not use a teleportation item to escape from there, he might encounter an opponent he did not know about beforehand.
"Damn. I still have to join the IRO to find out about it, huh?" Radmilo talked to himself after leaving the wooden house.
The man did not enter the conference building because he wanted to monitor the situation from the outside. The archery squad turned their bows on him as soon as he arrived behind them.
However, the arrows could not pierce their target precisely. It took Radmilo minimal effort to evade the archery team's strikes. They had a hard time as arrows were not a weapon for close combat.
The archery team put away their bows and replaced them with daggers and swords. Leroy was the only one with a magic gun since he was unit B's archery team leader.
Leroy stayed where he was as his team started attacking Radmilo. They were on the roof of the building, which overlooked the conference center. Radmilo threw the people he defeated regardless of their screams.
"Are you just going to watch?" Radmilo asked when he saw Leroy busy talking through the magic earpiece.
The archery team attacked more intensively, thinking the masked man's attention was distracted by watching Leroy. However, Radmilo kept his focus and put his attention back on the archery team.
He fought many people with his dagger, which had two curved blades. So he could attack from all directions. In the fight, Radmilo also used the hilt as a shield to protect himself and deflect enemy blows.
His cloak armor was also quite effective against the attacks. Even though he was stronger than the archery team, they did not give up. They still believed they could win because they used a sword to attack Radmilo. After all, the masked man was only using a dagger.
"I don't like it when people underestimate my dagger," Radmilo said and suddenly moved faster than before.
He appeared behind the archery team. At that time, he slashed the back of several people's necks. This caused blood to gush out like a fountain and their heads to fall limp.
The few remaining people were not fast enough to stop him or turn around to avoid his brutal attacks. These people crumpled to the floor after being seriously injured.
Then, Radmilo turned to face the other people standing close by. His eyes flashed with enthusiasm as he suddenly grabbed their necks. Then he started slitting them to death. It looked like he wanted to kill them without even looking at their faces.
However, their fight was interrupted by a loud noise from above the sky. When Radmilo raised his head, he saw two helicopters circling the building. When someone from the helicopter shot magic bullets, he fled in a zigzag pattern.
The man chose to open the door that connected the roof to the building. However, that did not let him off the hook. The security team went after him right away. Soon after, the security personnel got out of the helicopter as well.
The second fight took place inside the building. Since people were being tossed out of the windows, it attracted attention. The reporters was not blind to this. They would also report on it.
However, they only had a moment as the security team became less and less. They were forced to leave there to avoid attacks from Elena, Chester, and Flint.
The three of them managed to overpower all the security teams after some time. Nonetheless, new security teams kept showing up to hold them.
"The new leader instructed us to leave if things got out of hand, right?" Flint asked during the fight. Although he was quicker than the others, he believed his stamina would eventually wear out.
"You can go if you want. I'm here waiting for Kai and Muramasa," replied Elena, who took out a fan to fight the security team. The fan could block their attacks and injure them if she flicked it.
Flint rolled his eyes, knowing Elena had a close relationship with Kai and Muramasa. His gaze shifted to Chester as he wished he could go with him. However, that would not happen because Chester seemed to enjoy attacking the security team.
Inside the conference building, Hector watched the security team that had come with him fall to the floor. They were unconscious after Kai's power was extinguished.
"Your power is quite interesting," Hector spoke after noticing the smoke from Kai's fire contained poison. That caused some of the people in the conference hall to lose consciousness.
Hector even received a warning from the system because his Poison Resistance detected a lethal poison. He would perish if he continued to breathe in the smoke, just like his security team.
"Even though you're wearing a mask, I can feel your murderous gaze. Are you one of the people who lost their closest because of the kidnapping?"
Kai gritted his teeth when he saw the mocking look on Hector's face. He swung his wand to shoot fire at the man. However, Hector did not dodge as flames flew toward him.
A council head like Hector wore special armor under his clothes. Fire magic could not burn him because of it. Moreover, his <Regeneration> power was still active. He did not need to worry about the attack Kai gave.
"Even if I die, my power keeps me alive. There's no use attacking me," Hector smirked as Kai's attacks did not affect him.
Nevertheless, Kai kept his mind calm. "I know your power is extraordinary. But I believe your power has a time limit since you're copying someone else's power instead of having it completely. If so, all I have to do is keep attacking you until you run out of time."
Hector no longer had the smirk on his face. He only had one hour to use <Regeneration> and not to mention his cooldown.
Kai used his wand to cast larger flames at the same time. The flames burned down the entire hall where he and Hector were standing. The fire was put out after three swings of his wand.
The smoke that followed covered the hall, costing Hector his loss to Kai. Nevertheless, he remained calm because he could still hear. When he detected the direction of his opponent's attack, he dodged to the side.
Kai worked hard to bring Hector to his knees. However, Hector was powerful because his HP increased every second. He could easily defend himself against Kai's attacks without taking any damage.
"Are you sure you can hold me until my time is up? You appear to be going to exhaust yourself," Hector replied in mock.
However, Kai ignored that and focused on attacking Hector with his magic wand. He finally succeeded in making a few stab wounds after some time. However, it was not enough to hurt his opponent.
Hector could stand up straight. "I want to fight you but I know very little about your new leader. Let's continue our fight another time," he sighed after speaking.
A moment later, Kai found Hector nowhere. He was sure the man did not use a teleportation item because there was no magic explosion. Feeling strange, he quickly cleared the smoke from the hall and could not tell where Hector had gone.
Kai put that out of his mind when he heard screaming from the conference room. It reminded him that Muramasa was there. He went into the conference room to see what was going on.
However, Muramasa looked fine, unlike what Kai had thought. The man in the fox mask grumbled about how cowardly Daryl was to escape the fight.
"Wait a minute," Kai interrupted Muramasa, still grumbling in annoyance. "Did Daryl just leave here?"
"Yeah, he and some people did. I think they don't want to deal with the mess we made. Or perhaps they recognize my Cursed Tiger Claws as a threat?" Muramasa replied, proceeding to explain the superiority of the weapon he had created.
Kai did not listen to Muramasa because he was trying to process what had just happened. When he made the hall covered in poisonous smoke, he could still see other people.
Therefore, he was sure Hector only used items to leave the conference building. That meant Hector and the others left because of someone's power. However, the IRO had never announced a member with such power.
