He was not worried about any dangers on the trip.
More than the danger, he feared that someone might lose control and kill them all.
"I see."
Ines responded softly and then disappeared into the shadows.
……
Anliu finished the internal meeting and walked around the factory's grounds.
"Something feels off about me today."
A sharp pain shot through his forehead, and this strange feeling hadn't subsided since tonight.
Even with my companions present, the pain continued to flare up.
"Am I being too sensitive lately...?"
Dark Current looked around again but still couldn't find anything amiss.
"No, this feeling is too abnormal. I need to be careful. We can't afford to make any mistakes now."
They just had a meeting because of the failed assassination attempt this morning.
This failure will inevitably lead to a purge of the integration faction within the safe zone.
During such a special period, no one would want to put themselves in danger.
As he spoke, Anliu concealed himself in the surrounding environment.
His intuition has always been very accurate; he is very sensitive to any slight disturbance in his surroundings and can detect the danger that may be present.
Even if it wasn't discovered.
He will also use the safest and most advantageous methods for himself to ensure that he lives until the moment he feels safe.
This is why he was able to remain in the safe zone and his identity as a Fusionist was not discovered.
Rather than doubting and denying himself, he preferred to put in the effort to trust the intuition he had developed since childhood.
Even after he concealed himself, this feeling showed no signs of abating.
"That's strange, it shouldn't be like this normally."
Anliu scratched his head, feeling inexplicably uneasy. "Am I being too sensitive today?"
But the moment he stepped around the corner, a black dart, solidified from magic, flew straight toward him.
"who!"
Anliu hurriedly swayed his body, trying to dodge the attack coming from behind, but the high-speed attack still grazed a corner of his body.
"Your intuition seems very sharp."
A voice came from the darkness, but when Anliu looked in the direction of the voice, he could not find any trace of it.
Clearly, the other party has also entered a state of concealment.
"what do you……"
When he wanted to shout loudly to attract attention from those around him.
A short knife was already silently placed against his neck.
"Don't try to call your companions. Guess if I can get your corpse into the shadows before anyone else finds it?"
A cold, female voice came from behind him.
"when!?"
An Liu shouted in his heart and hurriedly tried to break away and escape.
Considering he's currently invisible, the fact that he could attack so precisely and put a knife to his neck proves that the person behind him...
Not only can it become invisible, it can also detect invisibility!?
Is there really such a good thing in the world?
But just as his mind was racing, he suddenly realized that his body, which he wanted to escape from, was now completely still.
"No, I... I can't move!"
Anliu cried out in alarm, realizing his intuition had been right.
Even if this situation only lasted a few seconds, it was enough to make Anliu break out in a cold sweat.
The other party... actually has control methods?
That now.
There's only one way left!
"Spare me! We have no past grudges or recent enmity. I don't know what you want, heroine. If it's robbery, I have cash in my wallet..."
Before Anliu could finish begging for mercy, his eyes widened as the blade slid across him, and he finally collapsed helplessly to the ground.
"The first target has been resolved; the other party did not use any special sealing methods."
After saying that, Ines disappeared into the darkness.
Only one sentry was left nearby to check on the whereabouts of others on the road.
Over time.
Every member of the integration faction who left the park disappeared silently from the spot.
No one can be seen alive, and no body can be seen dead.
Even the surveillance cameras didn't record any trace.
All of the unification faction members who attended the meeting disappeared without a trace the moment the meeting ended in the early morning.
……
2:25 AM
"Where the person is?! Tell me the hell where the person is?! Even if they were eaten by a ghost, at least leave me some bones!"
A furious curse and the sound of a table shattering echoed throughout the office building.
"Boss, I asked the people over there... it seems that no one has gone back yet."
Seeing the boss's furious expression, the secretary who had just entered the room answered timidly.
"Didn't you go back?"
The man addressed as "boss" almost laughed in anger. "Don't you even know what time it is? Even a dead stray dog on the street would bark twice, wouldn't it?!"
Typically, after the meeting concludes and everyone returns safely, they should contact their secretary in different ways.
He also needed to know that everyone had arrived safely before he could go to sleep with peace of mind.
But now?
No one has sent me a message!
Doesn't this almost prove that they were completely wiped out outside?
"Boss... what do we do now?"
"What should we do? Let's just wait, they'll be here soon."
The boss sneered, having no intention of running away at all. Since the other party had already done such a thing, they would definitely come looking for him.
Whether they live or die depends on the other party's methods.
however.
No sooner had he finished speaking than his office door was forcefully pushed open.
"You're right, your companions were indeed all captured just now. It was a wise choice for you to wait for me here."
"At least... it will allow you to finish what you have to say to me with some dignity."
The visitor stepped through the doorway like an elegant spring breeze.
The first thing that catches the eye is his pair of exquisite leather shoes and his well-tailored black suit, which looks as if it were made to fit him perfectly.
His attire was impeccably tailored in every detail, from the collar and cuffs to the hem and even the shine of his shoes, all exuding an impeccable sense of refinement.
But this very formal, even business-like attire was accompanied by...
"What kind of ridiculous design is this?"
The boss rubbed his eyes and looked at the man's clothes again.
I always feel like my eyes have been exposed to strong alkali.
Because the businessman who was leisurely walking into his office... was dressed very formally from the neck down.
but……
On his head, however, was a huge, heavily armed chip.
The patterns on it look like they were deliberately drawn with a marker! Making this reinstalled chip look like a person.
