Chapter 391 - Face Off

*Whizzz!*

Suddenly the sound of something sharp cutting through the air sounded beside Veroz's ears, making him freeze his hand right before he was to inject the drug into Lana.

But it was too late when he saw a large sharp blade cutting through his wrist like butter before the blade completely passed through his wrist, leaving behind a severed wrist that had a gaping bloody surface.

"AARGHHH!!!" Only after a few moments of shock, the pain kicked in as Veroz stumbled back while holding his arm, howling in pain. He was feeling as if a thousand knives were cutting away at his nerves.

The cut was so clean, blood only started to gush out after a while, but that didn't make him feel any better.

But his survival instincts made him quickly jump to the side upon realizing that there was an intruder, even though he didn't see their face.

"Guards! What the fuck are you here for?!" Veroz shouted in rage as he looked at these dumb motherfuckers standing around with their mouths open as if they were looking at a ghost.

But any normal person would feel as if they lost their wits upon seeing a woman wearing a hooded suit jumping in with double custom-designed sabers and, more shockingly, a woman with a goddess-like aura and appearance floating in thin air, looking down upon them as if they were nothing but filth.

Just her figure and the pure light radiating from her dazzling figure made every single of them feel mesmerized to the point they even forgot what was going on.

But upon hearing Veroz's shout, they quickly came back to their senses as they loaded their guns.

Taya wasn't worried about their guns since she knew Umilia had her back and thus focused on cutting off the restraints around this poor girl who was shocked by what was going on.

Still, she didn't care how crazy things were right now as long as she wasn't going to die, and apparently, this woman dressed in such a strange suit saved her life.

"T-Thank you…" Lana somehow choked out words of gratitude as tears continuously slipped down her cheeks.

"It's fine. Just stay behind me till we get out," Taya hurriedly said as she helped her get off the bed and then looked at the other beds to see if she could save anybody else.

But as expected, it was too late as all of them were already injected with the Rebirth drug. Still, she decided to get something out of this as she took out a syringe of her own while glancing at Umilia for a brief second, telling her to buy her just a few more seconds.

Umilia nodded as she spread a thin barrier of light around Taya as some of the mercenaries were aiming at Taya already.

All the mercenaries in the room began to fire their automatic rifles as bullets whizzed through the air toward both Taya and Umilia.

They were expecting these two to get mowed down by their bullets, but the mercenaries had their mouths go wide upon seeing their bullets turn into dust the moment they collided against the thin film of light surrounding these two women.

This just completely broke their common sense. How could pieces of pointed metals traveling at supersonic speeds turn into dust upon touching nothing but a thin film of light? It just didn't make sense!

Still, they didn't stop firing as they felt a very bad feeling and instinctively had their fingers squeezing the trigger of their guns.

Umilia was casually hovering in the air, looking down at them and shaking her head at seeing their desperate attempts, seeing how they were adamant about not accepting reality and still putting up pathetic attempts to take her down.

She didn't feel like entertaining them anymore as she snapped her fingers together and bright rays of light struck each of them, turning them into ashes before they could even realize it.

The three men with sunglasses who were standing above jumped down to deal with Taya. They saw Umilia getting rid of those mercenaries like they were nothing. Still, they walked forward to stop Taya and help Dr. Veroz.

Umilia turned her attention towards the three men and was about to get rid of them since Taya was still busy doing her thing.

But right at that moment, her eyes widened as she quickly shifted her body a few meters to the side as a black blade of energy whizzed past her.

"What a shame. You really don't learn, do you? Pushing you into the arms of death almost wasn't enough?" A cold chilling voice came from the side, and Umilia turned around, already realizing who unleashed that attack on her.

"You again…" Umilia mumbled with a frown upon seeing a woman clothed in a dark gray catsuit descending down from the air, her face hidden by a half-face mask that covered the upper half of her fair oval face. Her lips, a jet-black that seemed to only heighten the deathly aura surrounding her. Her long brown hair extended till her waist, and her deep black eyes seemed to lack all emotions as before.

Umilia hoped that the worst scenario she had thought would not happen, but here it was, this woman appearing right when they were almost done.

If it weren't for this woman, this mission would have been a cakewalk. But now, she will have to deal with her first before she can think of getting out with Taya.

Still, she decided to get rid of those three pseudo vampires for Taya's sake and sent three rays of light towards them, but the mysterious woman quickly flashed forward and dispersed them using her own hands, "Ah, ah. Your opponent is me. Once I take care of you, then I will take care of your friend as well. You don't have to worry about that," She said with a sharp gaze while Umilia was worried for Taya since those three men were not ordinary humans, but at the same time, she couldn't help Taya without making herself vulnerable.
