162 The First Extraordinary Trait (Two in One)

Translator: 549690339

Inside the Giant Serpent Tribe market.

Boris Holt burst through the door of an inn near Dean McKenzie’s establishment, his face ablaze with excitement.

“Gentlemen, I just received news. Bruce Hodge has completed his trade with the Giant Serpent Tribe.”

The news brought by Boris was undoubtedly thrilling for the five-men group gathered in this room.

“Finally, it is completed!”

With this deal done, he should leave the Giant Serpent Tribe, right?”

“Our business can officially start now!”

The leader of the group immediately ordered, “Old Four and Old Five, keep a close eye on that kid. The moment he plans to leave the Giant Serpent Tribe, report back immediately! Be careful not to let him slip away. If he escapes, you’ll be skinned alive!”

“Don’t worry, that kid won’t be able to escape!”

Affirming with excited nods, Old Four and Old Five left the inn right away, heading straight towards Dean McKenzie.

They were rubbing their hands, eager to deal with Dean McKenzie.

And Dean didn’t disappoint them.

On the very night he completed his trade with the Giant Serpent Tribe, Dean packed up his belongings, disguised himself, and stealthily left the inn.

Yet, Dean’s actions did not escape the notice of the five-men group.

Old Four and Old Five saw through Dean’s disguise right away.

The group quickly trailed him.

The moment they saw Dean opening the door of the Giant Serpent Tribe with their emblem and leaving, the five-men group swooped in.

AU exceeding fifth-turn professionals.

The guards of the Giant Serpent Tribe seemed negligible to them; they effortlessly bypassed the outer wall and followed suit.

Not long after they left the Giant Serpent Tribe premises, the group sprang into action.

“Old Five, Old Six, you flank him. Old Two, Old Three, watch the front and back. Attack simultaneously in ten minutes. Don’t let the kid escape!”

“Yes!”

At the command of the group leader, the four men dispersed and quickly surrounded Dean.

Precisely after ten minutes, the group leader ordered the attack.

“Attack!”

His command was met with silence.

A cold, dead silence!

The leader furrowed his brows, “What the hell are you guys playing at, I told you to…Who!”

Just as his words trailed off, the leader’s complexion abruptly changed. A ring in his hand lit up, creating an invisible wave that rippled out. At the same moment, Doggy Two appeared less than a meter behind him.

“Damn it!”

The moment Doggy Two was spotted, the leader’s face instantly drained of color.

Instantly realizing that he walked into a trap, underestimated the enemy’s strength, and likely lost his underlings in that moment, he quickly reacted. Ignoring Doggy Two who was behind him, he activated his skill fervently, attempting to escape!

But at this juncture, escaping wouldn’t be an easy feat.

He’d barely made a move.

The surrounding air filled with the clatter of bones.

Soon after, the leader found skeletons surrounding him. He didn’t know when but they were all fifth-turn skeletons. Judging by their aura, none of them were less than excellent quality.

It’s over!

In the moment he saw the group of skeletons, the leader knew survival was slim.

Though he was a sixth-turn expert with a perfect quality template.

But against these hundreds of fifth-turn skeletons, he lacked confidence.

As he succumbed to despair, the skeletons parted, giving way to Dean McKenzie, guarded by a few skeletons.

The moment the leader saw Dean, he knelt.

“Esteemed sir, I accidentally passed through here. If I have offended you in any way, I am willing to…”

“Spare me your unnecessary words. You just want a chance to live, right?

I’ll give you this opportunity, Doggy Two!”

At Dean’s command, Doggy Two, wielding the Dragon Bone Sword, walked forth.

If you can defeat him, I’ll spare your life!”

The leader was taken aback.

Before he could even react, Doggy Two attacked!

“Boom!”

The Bone Throne descended instantly, Doggy Two charged.

Already at level 9, Doggy Two crossed the two hundred meter distance to the leader in a split second, swinging the Dragon Bone Sword menacingly towards the leader’s head.

The leader was evidently a melee fighter.

With a stretch of his hand, a Ghost Blade appeared, promptly blocking the Dragon Bone Sword.

Just with that block, the leader’s face darkened.

Mainly because the strength bursting from Doggy Two’s sword was far beyond his expectations. The sudden block nearly made him drop his weapon.

Nevertheless, the leader was a sixth-turn professional.

It was essential for a professional to cultivate up to the sixth-turn with skills, luck, and combat experience.

This leader had extensive combat experience; a single block was enough to gauge Doggy Two’s skill level. In the ensuing fight, he avoided going head-to-head with Doggy Two.

Dependent on his exceptional speed, he entangled with Doggy Two.

For a moment, he even fought Doggy Two equally.

However, Dean knew very well that the leader’s strength was much more than that.

Because the moment Dean caught sight of him, his attributes were laid bare in Dean’s eyes.
