YM778.TV Chapter 72 - Attack 1
They thought they must be wondering or talking to their colleagues. But, as time passes more and more intel came towards them the security team got alarmed. They started to verify through Monitor\'s Screen.
The Team of Auction Authorities also moved at the same time.. Usually, they don\'t have much work. But this time they are facing an enemy higher than their level.
Meanwhile, The old man found Max Stewart. Max stopped his movement turned back and asked, "Who are you?" The old man is now in a different disguise. Didn\'t hesitate to answer.
"Sir, I\'m one of the staff here, Your friend asked me to stop you." Hearing the old man\'s answers. Max was confused. He already told Zack that, he will be waiting at Leki Restaurant.
" What happened now?" Max commented in his heart. Max looked at the old man for a moment. He was a bit confused. Seeing Max is hesitant.
The old Man further convinced Max by saying Zack had some issue with the transaction. Max Stewart let down his last guard. After hearing the transaction issue. He didn\'t know that this decision might lead him to his death.
"Let\'s go" Max uttered. And he followed the old man. The old man leads him to a particular room. From the start, he didn\'t leak out his aura. So, Max couldn\'t suspect him.
After entering the particular room. Max looked around found the room is empty. His senses suddenly alarmed him. Max\'s heart starts to beat faster. He is having difficulty in breathing. He is having a bad premonition.
He wanted to turn back and take a look at the old man. But, his instincts giving him danger signals. While he is having sweats beads appear all over his face. The old man closed the door behind him.
He preplanned and arranged this room earlier. Now, he had a wide grin on his face. Which looked devilish. Seeing Max stopped like a statue. The old man continued to smile. He moves towards Max slowly. From looking from outside.
It will look like the person is walking on water. There is no noise. It is like a smooth walk. This time Max generated some courage to turn back and look towards the exit. But he was stunned for a moment. Seeing the old man face to face.
He is having a devilish smile. Max wanted to say something but there is no word coming out of his mouth. His face looked horror-stricken. The old man said, "Looks like Now you understand." Then he released his special trainee aura.
Max Stewart then plummeted on the ground completely. His face is facing towards the floor. His being an early apprentice doesn\'t pose much of a challenge to the special trainee.
Meanwhile,
Zack completed his transaction. As I exited room number nine. I found there is not much human activity here. Except there is one guy. I doubted about this guy earlier. Don\'t know why my guts still tell me something wrong about him.
I didn\'t want to wait any longer. Max must be waiting for me at leki restaurant. As I decided to move. The staff who was quite earlier suddenly turned towards me. I didn\'t care about it. And continued to move forward. But, the staff quickly moved.
It was so quick that, I was surprised and failed to do anything. Because he came so close to me. The staff is none other than a robber. He used his right fist to attack me. The punch was super fast.
Due to instinct, I used my hands to defend myself. But, still, it was too late. The punch landed on my face.
"BANG"
I was thrown to the floor. I covered my head with my left hand, the attack still landed on my left hand. Due to that impact, I was heavily thrown and landed on the ground.
"Ahh" A cry escaped my mouth. I felt my left hand is broken. This was the first time, I felt powerless. "The staff no.. He is not staff, he might be an assassin" crazy thought ran through my mind.
Uncle James earlier warned me about this. The assassin is usually one level higher than their target. If Uncle\'s Words were true. Then this guy might be a special trainee.
The Special trainee, this is the first time I\'m facing an attack of such a warrior. The normal fist punch is so powerful. It broke my left-hand bones. I couldn\'t imagine if I\'m not being a double mid-level trainee apprentice.
The attack would have left me half dead. I tried to get up from the ground. The staff aka robber got surprised seeing that. He used a normal fist to attack him without elemental power.
Usually, This physical attack is enough to make apprentice warriors get injured. But, this bidder was not injured. Maybe I didn\'t use enough power. The robber then releases his special trainee aura.
He didn\'t want to use elemental power inside the building. It will trigger security alarms. Then it will lead to bigger trouble. And it will compromise the whole robbing plan. He didn\'t want such a scenario to occur.
Then the robber unleashed his whole aura. Zack is trying to get up from the ground. I can\'t use my left hand for now. So, I used my right hand to get up from the ground.
Then suddenly I felt a wave of aura submerge me. The aura was so dense. I struggle to breathe for a moment. It\'s making me further difficult to get up. I saw the assassin moving towards me. Sweat starts to appear on my forehead.
"Come on Zack, think something!" I comforted myself in my heart. I have to do something. I tried looking around the hallway to search for other people. This entire thing happened a minute. I felt it like a day.
