Chapter 10

Because he had previously seen information about Todd Elsey, Todd Elsey was just an ordinary person. But what had happened this time, and also the previous time, had changed his perception of Todd Elsey completely.

Although Juliet Hazlitt believed Todd Elsey’s claim from last time, others might not believe it. How could it be a coincidence that the police arrived just as she lost consciousness?

Perhaps what happened last time was also related to Todd Elsey. Since she was worried about Shangguan, Hazlitt Shangguan didn’t think much about it and simply followed Todd Elsey’s lead, running towards the area being demolished.

After they passed through those dilapidated abandoned buildings, there was another unfinished, ruined building behind them. It’s unclear what exactly happened there.

Just at the entrance here, there were two foreigners, each holding a short blade, carefully watching their surroundings.

“You go and distract them. I’ll take care of the rest,” said Todd Elsey.

But at this moment, Todd Elsey didn’t make any move. Instead, he leaned forward slightly. The two foreigners also noticed Todd Elsey right away. Just as they were about to act, they suddenly felt a slight chill on their necks. In the next moment, their bodies went limp and they collapsed to the ground.

If you look closely, you can see that both of these people have silver needles about 6 cm long inserted into their necks. This is likely one of the reasons why they’re unconscious.

At this moment, Shangguan had a furrowed brow. He followed reluctantly, his eyes filled with an unimaginable sense of confusion. What kind of person could bring about such drastic changes in Todd Elsey? After all, these techniques used by Todd Elsey were beyond the reach of even these people.

At this moment, on the second floor of the unfinished building, there was a windowless room made of old cement boards. Several foreigners sat on chairs. They stared at the beautiful woman, their eyes filled with greed.

At that moment, the beautiful woman was Juliet Hazlitt. Juliet Hazlitt’s hands were tied. Her eyes were filled with fear as she looked at the people around her. Her body trembled non-stop, as if she was suffering from some terrible fear.

“This girl looks pretty, doesn’t she? It’s a shame to kill someone like her, isn’t it?”

“Unfortunately, our mission is to kill our own mouths. We can’t take them back. If we could get them back, we’d abandon this mission.”

“Even if the task doesn’t cost much money, let’s still have fun first.”

A few people were talking, but just as they were about to leave, they heard a thud coming from the cars downstairs. The leader was a middle-aged man with a stern expression and a few strands of hair on his head.

Upon hearing this voice, his expression changed instantly, his brows knitting together. His eyes darkened as he said, “What’s wrong? Jess, go take a look.”

After that, the bald man looked at a man who was thin but muscular. When Jesse heard these words, his expression also changed. But there was nothing he could do. He was carrying a dagger as he went downstairs.

However, at that moment, a figure suddenly appeared at the door of the room. Jesse was also very scared. Before he could do anything, he was kicked out by that person and slammed into the wall. There was a trail of blood at the corner of his mouth, and his face turned pale. There was a look of disbelief in his eyes.

He couldn’t believe that such a thin young person could cause him such serious injuries if he kicked him.

As we knew in Changzhi, we stared at the person before us in astonishment, our eyes filled with confusion. Although Jesse wasn’t as powerful as them, he was still a strong man. He certainly couldn’t be defeated by someone so frail.

Juliet Hazlitt turned pale with fear. With a piece of transparent tape over her mouth, she hadn’t cried for a while. But when she saw that it was Todd Elsey who had come to see her, tears streamed down her face immediately.

It can be said that every girl dreams that one day, her hero will come to save her by riding on colorful clouds. Clearly, Todd Elsey is her hero now.

“Who are you?” With his eyebrows completely shaved, he frowned and gave a signal to his subordinates. He noticed that the foreign young man beside him was holding a dagger and slowly approaching Todd Elsey.

But at that moment, Todd Elsey seemed unable to see what was happening. He allowed the other person to get close. When the person was less than half a meter away from him, the young man’s cold dagger quickly pierced Todd Elsey’s chest.

But at that moment, Todd Elsey’s right hand was like a dragon’s claw. He tightly grasped the young man’s wrist. As he turned around, he heard a crisp snap. The broken bone pierced through flesh and skin, and blood gushed out. But it wasn’t over yet. Todd Elsey kicked the young man in the shoulder, sending him flying away.

It hit the wall, leaving a trail of blood on it. Blood and fragments slowly spilled from its mouth. Those were pieces of internal organs. Clearly, it wouldn’t live much longer.

Behind him, another young man rushed forward. At that moment, Todd Elsey was like a warrior. He fought with his fists, breaking bones along the way. The young man collapsed unconscious. It wasn’t until then that Shangguan came to help Todd Elsey.

Todd Elsey slowly walked toward Juliet Hazlitt, tore the tape off his mouth, then hugged her tightly, a murderous glint in his eyes.

The bald man’s face suddenly turned extremely pale. He had never seen anyone as fierce before. Even the captain of the Devils probably didn’t possess such great strength.

“I won’t touch you,” Todd Elsey said calmly.

At that moment, Juliet Hazlitt felt a little relieved, but her hands still clutched tightly at the hem of Todd Elsey’s shirt. She stared at the bald man before her with utter terror.

The bald man also wore a scornful smile on his lips. He said to the person before him in a contemptuous tone, “Kid, do you know who we are? You dare to touch my men. I guess you’re tired of living.”

Todd Elsey frowned and whispered to Juliet Hazlitt, “Close your eyes!”

After saying that, I saw Todd Elsey hand Juliet Hazlitt over to Shangguan, then slowly walk toward the bald man. Every step he took was deliberate and solemn. The sound of his footsteps seemed to echo within the bald man’s heart, nearly making him vomit blood.

“What do you want to do? Are we demons? If you do anything to us, you’ll surely face retribution in fear. You won’t be able to endure it next time.” The bald man slowly backed away, speaking as he retreated.

It’s the sixth floor now. It can be said that he deliberately chose a higher location from where he could enjoy the view outside the window while doing whatever he was doing. But this also presents a slight disadvantage for him if he wants to escape.

“A demon, aren’t you? What does that have to do with me?” Todd Elsey narrowed his eyes and said coldly.

“If you dare to touch me, I’ll kill you! Kid, if you have any strength at all, don’t think you can do anything!” the bald man sneered.
