She could even see the remaining flesh and hair on the barbs and spikes.
Just looking at the chains sent a chill down the woman's spine; she could almost feel the souls of countless people who had suffered under their torment.
Just as the woman was shocked at how the chains appeared, she suddenly realized that the two people who had just fallen straight down were not dead, but were firmly bound by these illusory chains.
Only then did she realize that the two people who had just fallen had not broken the poison, but were unable to move because they were bound by the chains.
"What the hell is this?!" The woman stared at the illusory chains, her heart filled with shock and a faint sense of fear.
Seth took two steps forward and stood in front of the two men.
At this moment, two people could be seen firmly trapped, with the vicious spikes and barbs piercing their flesh without leaving any wounds or bloodstains.
The eyes that were visible through them were filled with terror and fear, and the sweat constantly seeping from their foreheads showed that they were enduring intense pain.
Seth still had a smile on his face, but now his smile was filled with horror and terror.
In the hazy light, the two saw a figure dressed in a special uniform and covered in blood standing in front of them.
This person was entirely crimson, as if he had been bathed in the blood of countless people.
He wore a mask, held a menacing chain in his hand, and was also equipped with various grotesque weapons.
Those instruments alone were enough to chill countless people to the bone and instill fear in them.
This is the chief executioner under the Desert Emperor!
Chapter 0317 The Prince and the Priest
The woman standing nearby could also vaguely see that terrifying figure.
"What...what is this thing?!" The woman was, after all, a veteran of many battles.
But at this moment, the woman felt a deep-seated fear, and her hands trembled uncontrollably.
The twisted, brutal, and bloody aura emanating from this shadow is beyond human description.
While the woman was stunned, she suddenly heard a terrifying sound that sounded like something out of hell.
The gentle voice from before was gone. The handsome, mild-mannered, and elegant man now wore a cruel and twisted smile. He looked down at the two men and said, "You can see the instruments of torture behind me, right? Come on, choose one. They've always craved blood."
At this moment, the two of them covered their mouths with their hands and shook their heads desperately.
But as they shook their heads, causing the muscles in their backs and shoulders to twitch, the woman noticed that their bodies began to convulse violently, as if they were enduring indescribable, terrifying pain.
Seth looked at the two men with interest and said, "Move your hands away yourselves, then tell me your purpose and your master. I'll give you five seconds. If you're too slow..."
As he spoke, Sass raised his hand, and a hook covered in blood and barbs landed in his hand.
"I really enjoy watching it pierce through flesh and blood, hanging you up like that."
Waaaaah!
Their eyes were practically bulging out of their sockets, and tears were streaming down their faces uncontrollably.
Seth began counting to “1”.
The two of them seemed to hear a death knell coming from hell.
The moment they heard that sound, their eyes turned bloodshot. Enduring the excruciating pain, they struggled with all their might to move their hands under the chains full of spikes and barbs.
Sweat, tears, pain, fear, and trembling filled the entire process.
The woman standing nearby twitched at the sight. She couldn't imagine the pain of being bound by those chains, causing two death-defying warriors to suffer like this.
Most importantly, this thing did not cause any harm to their bodies.
“4,” Seth said, raising the hook in his hand.
Upon seeing this, the two men went berserk. Ignoring the inhuman pain, they immediately removed their hands, revealing their mouths, and exclaimed, "Our master is Polly! Elipoli!"
Then, the two of them started talking non-stop, like machine guns.
“We’ve been watching Marion for a long time, but we haven’t been able to find a suitable way to kill him. So we’re going to make our move here. On the one hand, we can get rid of this thorn in our side, and on the other hand, we can suppress Charlemagne’s prestige and direct all the hatred toward the Charlemagne family!”
The woman asked, "What is your purpose?!"
The woman said with a sob in her voice, "In the past two years, the Polly family has risen rapidly and many of its businesses have gradually overlapped with those of the Charlemagne family, creating a conflict of interest."
"Since the Charlemagne family does not have a true head of the family, the heir in two years will only be a distant relative, at which point there will be no need to worry."
"But now that Charlemagne has returned, our master knows Charlemagne's abilities, so he wants to ruin the entire Charlemagne family before he takes over the business!"
"That's all! That's all! Please! I'm being tortured, let me die!"
At this moment, the two of them were pleading with snot and tears streaming down their faces.
Their spirits have completely collapsed, and they now wish to end their lives.
Upon hearing this, Seth lowered his hand, and as the phantom dissipated, the chains binding the two also disappeared.
“The rest is up to you, madam,” Seth said, raising his hand and gently placing it on the woman’s shoulder.
Upon hearing the voice, the woman reacted as if bitten by a venomous snake, taking a step back, drawing her weapon, and adopting a fighting stance, while staring at Seth with extreme caution.
Seth smiled slightly: "Don't be so formal, we're all family, and we'll all be working for Mr. Charlemagne in the future, won't we?"
After saying that, he walked out with a smile, leaving behind two devastated people and a woman who was still in shock.
"What the hell is that damned monster's phantom?!" the woman thought to herself, slowly raising her hand to hold the weapon.
But they found that the hand was still trembling.
"Damn it!" The woman struggled to control her hand, but when she turned her head, she found that the two people had already been poisoned and were foaming at the mouth and dead.
Meanwhile, in the shadows of the northeast corner, Renault and Gloria calmly shook the blood off their hands.
There are four corpses here: two are young men in black suits, and two are bandits in black bodysuits.
Lisa rushed over with her entourage, and her eyes narrowed when she saw this scene.
Both of the dead guards were level 13 superhumans.
Judging from the wounds on the two guards, both of them were sneaked up behind them and stabbed in the neck, resulting in their deaths.
To be able to kill these two guards silently and successfully bypass the entire manor's defense system, these two guys must be at least level eighteen superhumans.
By this time, both of them were already dead.
One of the assassins was crushed into a bloody pulp, with broken bones mixed with flesh, and a large amount of blood splattered everywhere.
It's hard to imagine what kind of terrifying power could mold a superhuman of at least level 18 into this form.
The other assassin's body was covered in sores, his skin, flesh, and internal organs had all turned into pus, leaving only bare bones.
Keep in mind, how much time has passed since this incident occurred?
It didn't even last thirty seconds!
Lisa looked at the two of them with extreme caution and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"
The tall and handsome Renault casually said, "We found two thieves. We just happened to be passing by and saw that the two guards here had been killed, so we killed the two thieves as well."
Beside her, with curly hair, exquisite makeup, and wearing a dark red evening gown, Gloria smiled and said, "Ms. Lisa, your defense system seems to have quite a few loopholes. It was so easy for someone to sneak in and even kill two guards."
Upon hearing this, Lisa's face immediately darkened: "Whether we have loopholes or not is none of your business to judge."
Renault, standing to the side, scoffed, "If you guys weren't so unreliable, letting so many people in, do you think we'd want to be here judging? Tch, seeing this scene, I've lost my appetite for dinner today."
Lisa flicked her arm, and a dozen or so dark objects flew straight over.
Snapped!
These things were immediately blocked by the sudden appearance of sand. Renault sneered, "What? Bowing and scraping to the enemy, but striking hard on your own people? You're quite the showman, Ms. Lisa! No wonder you're one of Mrs. Charlemagne's subordinates!"
Chapter 0318 Judy's Analysis
Hearing Renault's sarcastic and mocking remarks, Lisa's face immediately darkened. She clenched her fists but remained silent.
Now she and he have seen the situation very clearly. Charlemagne's return this time was definitely well-prepared. The nine people he brought back this time are definitely not just stage actors. They are very likely all superhumans!
Gloria, holding Renault's arm, said with a smile, "Alright, Renault, don't be so difficult with a lady. Where's your gentlemanly manners?"
With that, Gloria smiled and said to Lisa, "I'll leave this place to you for now, Ms. Lisa. We need to take care of the other two before they cause any trouble."
After saying that, the two left leisurely, leaving Lisa and the others with gloomy faces and clenched teeth.
"Immediately issue the order to activate the highest level of alert. We must take care of those guys before they get here!"
As Lisa spoke, she turned and ran out quickly.
Meanwhile, the hostess, Charlemagne and Judy, returned upstairs after two rounds to change into their third outfit for the evening.
While Judy was changing, Lisa walked over quickly and whispered a few words in her ear.
Upon hearing this, Judy said coldly, "Let Mary go help you."
Lisa's face turned very ugly after hearing this, but she dared not disobey and left in accordance with the order.
"What is it, my dear lady?" Charlemagne asked with a smile.
Judy, with a blank expression, took off her clothes and said, "I didn't realize Arkham really went all out this time."
"Oh?! How do you know?" Charlemagne asked with a curious look.
Judy: "Those eight people you brought back, they were all carefully selected superhumans, right? Judging from tonight's situation, none of them are below level 20, and they all seem to have special abilities. Their overall combat strength should be above level 20."
"They actually sent such elite troops to bring you back. Now that he's left Arkham, isn't he afraid someone will attack his stronghold?"
Charlemagne sighed inwardly after hearing this, "Sorry, level 20 is just the level of us Arkham police."
Of course, Judy wouldn't be told these true facts.
Charlemagne removed his bow tie and chuckled casually, "I'm not some elite, don't overthink it. I just came back to see you."
Judy sneered: "Charlieman, I didn't expect you to start playing coy now? To match your identity, these eight people are all proficient in acting and drama. Judging from their performance just now, they must have needed at least three years of training."
"Superhumans learn much faster than normal people, but even at this level, it would still take at least a year of study and practice. Do you think I'm stupid to have eight level 25 superhumans spend a year learning acting and drama just to cover for your return?"
Charlemagne, seeing Judy's reasoned analysis and earnest expression, really wanted to say, "These guys don't need any training; they're all seasoned stage actors. They just became this good in less than four months," to give Judy a good slap in the face.
However, in order to conceal the true situation of Arkham, Charlemagne could only sigh and say, "Well, your insight is still so sharp. This group is indeed elite, but the mayor had already made arrangements before leaving, so there is no need to worry."
Seeing that she had gained recognition, Judy's eyes flashed with satisfaction and confidence. She then said, "Arkham really does have some tricks up his sleeve to be able to gather so many elite talents. He is also quite cautious. With your current fighting strength, you can sweep away all the organizations in Massa today."
"Including you too?" Charlemagne asked.
Judy didn't bother lying: "Gathering so many level 25 talents with special abilities isn't easy, otherwise how could your people be ahead of us in every aspect of the defense here!?"
