Chapter 271: Chapter 188: Dying in Front of Her_3
Usually, no matter where it appeared, this was an extremely formidable force.
Seeing this, the last trace of unease in Tiya’s heart also dissipated.
At the moment, the limb connector had been caught red-handed, and there was no room for reversal.
Just as she was silently pondering what might happen next, a voice suddenly came from beside her.
“Should I say it is truly befitting of the Holy Daughter? Just like Big Brother Xiya, you deal with matters decisively and efficiently, and now you have scored a head start and are about to receive His Majesty’s commendation. It really is enviable.”
This voice sounded very familiar.
It seemed to belong to one of Xiya’s old acquaintances from the Military Department.
However, apart from one person, Tiya held an uncontrollable aversion and disgust toward all other men.
Therefore, she was naturally not pleasant toward the owner of the voice, and replied indifferently, “The Fourth Prince is still not out of danger and needs help.”
After saying this, Tiya was ready to ignore the other party.
But unexpectedly, a sudden change drastically altered the course of events.
“Don’t rush.” The voice came from afar, moving through the darkness and shadows like a serpent, rapidly closing in on Lynn, “We just received an order to temporarily change the established strategy for the limb connector.”
“Change the strategy?!”
Tiya felt it was ridiculous.
The man was already captured; what was there to change?
For some reason, a terrible guess flashed through the girl’s mind.
The next second, a killer from the Military Department, hidden in the shadows, suddenly appeared, hovering midair.
“That’s right,” the person looked down condescendingly at the young man bound to the ground by the Moonlight Chains, “change from ‘capture alive’ to ‘execute on the spot.’ These are the exact words from the higher-ups.”
“As a soldier, obeying orders is my sworn duty, so…”
Under Tiya’s incredulous gaze, the Military Department Extraordinary slowly lifted the long spear-shaped Military Dagger in his hand.
At this moment, everyone was at a considerable distance from them.
And regarding the newest command this man had received, nobody had heard anything.
They were so persistent in trying to capture Lynn alive for Saint Laurent VI’s reward; how could they possibly switch tracks just because of a command from the Military Department?
Some people didn’t want to see this guy continue to live, even if it meant waiting until the day of the Judgement!
Accompanied by the shrill sound of slicing air, the sharply pointed Military Dagger, enveloped in Extraordinary Power, fiercely stabbed toward Lynn’s chest.
At that moment, realizing it was too late to save him, Tiya felt her heart skip a beat.
But she suddenly remembered, that guy always seemed to have a life-saving ace up his sleeve.
That time-based Extraordinary Ability.
It was just that she couldn’t use it because of the Sealed Object she carried with her.
Thinking of this, Tiya instantly lifted the effect of the Sealed Object and raised her hand to disperse the Moonlight Chains, releasing all restraints and restrictions on Lynn.
If it’s you, you can surely make it in time…
Such thoughts had not fully emerged when the sound of sharp blades piercing flesh entered Tiya’s ears.
Unlike the shallow scar left on his chest last time.
This time, the blade completely entered the young man’s body, piercing through the chest, with the blood-stained tip appearing on his back.
Blood splattered out as if it had a life of its own.
Seeing this, the assassin from the Military Department looked down at the black-haired young man, whose pupils were gradually losing their luster.
At that moment, he noticed what Tiya had done.
This made him very puzzled.
“You should have had a chance to dodge just now, right?”
He asked casually as he pulled out the Military Dagger and wiped off the blood.
However, at this moment, the young man lying in a pool of blood had absolutely no ability to respond to him.
Tiya stared blankly at the scene before her.
He had the ability to dodge that strike.
That should have been the case.
But what exactly prompted him to stay in place, unmoving even in the face of the threat of death?
It was because she had just coldly ordered him to conserve their energy and stay put.
And this guy actually took it as a commitment, foolishly following it to the end.
For some reason, Tiya, known as the Silent Saintess, suddenly felt that the world had reached the pinnacle of absurdity.
Her heart felt as though it was being clenched by something, and for the first time in her life, she experienced the sensation called “suffocation.”
Meanwhile, in a corner unnoticed by everyone.
The rustling sounds faintly echoed from all directions, as if limbs were scratching on the ground and walls.
