Chapter 236: Chapter 232: Bodyguard Hummingbird Chapter 236: Chapter 232: Bodyguard Hummingbird After recruiting Hummingbird, Fang Xiaocao also breathed a sigh of relief.
Now that Taotie and Tom, two formidable warriors, were not by her side, and she didn’t know whether Wan Xiaozhou was alive or dead, it was very fortunate to have the capable Hummingbird to protect her own safety.
One-on-one, Xiaocao could rely on hypnotism for so self-protection, but in a group fight, her hypnotism wasn’t very effective.
Friends who often play with hypnotism all know.
It’s easy to control the emotions of one person.
But a group of people’s emotions, that’s difficult.
Even the most precise computer cannot accurately calculate what each person is thinking in their hearts.
What’s more for a human?
If they were just ordinary people, Xiaocao could still try mass hypnosis, forcefully controlling them for a while.
But the ti under forced control would certainly not be long.
If it ca to those who had undergone consciousness training, let alone how difficult mass hypnosis was, even if it was successful, it would be even shorter than for ordinary people.
So short that Xiaocao wouldn’t have ti to escape.
And wouldn’t have ti to do anything!
Therefore, Xiaocao’s hypnotism was like a miracle skill one-on-one, but in a one-on-many situation, it seed sowhat lacking.
“Hummingbird, I need to go here.”
“Find a safe route and take there.”
Xiaocao took out the terminal, pulled up the route planned by Tom, and showed it to Hummingbird.
Looking at the route on the terminal, Hummingbird nodded.
“Princess Your Highness, please follow !”
Hummingbird spoke to Fang Xiaocao in a deep voice.
Xiaocao nodded and gestured for Hummingbird to lead the way.
Following behind Hummingbird, Xiaocao sent a ssage on the terminal that she was safe and en route to the planned eting point.
The reason Xiaocao dared to send the ssage so openly to the terminal was that after realizing Wan Xiaozhou might be captured by soone, and after the terminal provided a fake secure route here, Tom had already cut it off.
Now, the ssage Xiaocao sent could be received only by Tom and Taotie.
Tom, who was hurrying to find Xiaocao, took a breather and felt sowhat relieved when he saw the ssage on the terminal.
“Phew—”
“I underestimated Princess Your Highness…”
Tom muttered to himself.
“Since she’s not in danger, there’s no need to hurry too much.”
“First, let’s deal with the little tail behind us.”
Tom murmured, stopped moving forward, and climbed up an ancient tree, squatting on a branch, quietly waiting for the Ragnarok rcenary following his trail to co.
The rcenaries didn’t keep Tom waiting too long.
Five minutes later!
A ten-man Ragnarok rcenary squad appeared in Tom’s view; they were fully ard, advancing continuously in tactical formation, looking very professional.
On their fatigues, the arm badge bore the mark of Ragnarok.
“Heh—”
Seeing this, Tom gave a cold laugh.
“Ragnarok, huh?”
“Quite a few people ca!”
Tom murmured to himself.
“Given the situation, it’s ti to find an opportunity to pay Ragnarok a visit with Taotie and teach them a lesson.”
Tom decided that after finding the treasure, he would take Taotie to Dahan, teach Ragnarok a lesson or two, and help them change their leader.
Tom squatted on the tree, staring coldly at the Ragnarok rcenary getting closer, reached into his pocket, and pulled out a tal pumpkin grenade he had made.
With a light press, the tal pumpkin grenade was activated, and the countdown began to tick down.
Watching the countdown on the pumpkin grenade, Tom sneered and, when the tir dropped to five seconds, flung it toward the Ragnarok rcenary.
“Grenade!”
Soone in the Ragnarok rcenary shouted.
But the discovery ca too late!
Before the rcenaries could react, the pumpkin grenade exploded instantly, shrapnel scattering like a rain of pears, piercing through everyone.
All ten Ragnarok rcenaries, without exception.
All dead.
Seeing this, Tom gave a cold laugh.
They deserved it!
People from Dahan are as annoying as Foot Basin Chicken.
Not many people are content with this kingdom.
Tom waited on the tree for a while.
He made sure no one else was coming.
Only then did Tom jump down from the tree.
Tom dusted his hands, turned his back on the bodies of the rcenaries without a glance, and went to look for Fang Xiaocao.
Tom ran quickly through the woods and soon picked up the trail belonging to Fang Xiaocao.
“Eh?”
“Why is there another footprint next to that of Princess Your Highness? Could it be that the Princess has been captured?”
Looking at the footprints next to Fang Xiaocao’s belonging to Hummingbird, Tom murmured to himself.
“It doesn’t seem quite right though!”
A puzzled expression appeared on Tom’s face.
“Let’s catch up and see,”
muttered Tom, quickening his pace.
Soon, the figures of Fang Xiaocao and Hummingbird ca into Tom’s view.
Not knowing Hummingbird’s identity, Tom didn’t rashly approach to et with Fang Xiaocao.
Instead, he followed the two covertly and observed in silence.
Fang Xiaocao followed Hummingbird for a while.
Hmmingbird, walking ahead, suddenly stopped.
Quickly turning around, Hummingbird looked back.
With a “clash,” the katana was drawn from its sheath.
Seeing this, Fang Xiaocao was startled.
She thought her hypnosis had worn off.
But the next second, Fang Xiaocao breathed a sigh of relief.
“Show yourself!”
The katana in Hummingbird’s hand wasn’t pointed at her.
Fang Xiaocao imdiately stepped aside, following Hummingbird’s gaze to look in that direction.
Tom, who was hidden, was slightly taken aback.
“Did she notice ?” he murmured to himself.
However, Tom didn’t move.
Maybe it was a bluff?
Tom examined his surroundings carefully.
Convinced there was no one else around but him,
Tom still did not reveal himself.
What did it matter if he was spotted?
Even if he was, not going out ant he wasn’t discovered.
After a standoff, no one appeared.
Fang Xiaocao cast a doubtful look at Hummingbird.
“Hummingbird, could you have been mistaken?” asked Fang Xiaocao, puzzled.
Hummingbird shook her head, took up the katana, and walked toward where Tom was.
Seeing this, Fang Xiaocao drew her gun.
Hummingbird walked faster and faster, eventually breaking into a run.
The next second!
Hummingbird leapt up, and the katana in her hand, with a whistling force, slashed towards Tom.
“Wow!”
“So she really did discover !”
Seeing the katana coming straight at him, Tom was sowhat surprised, pulled out the black Dagger at his waist, and parried Hummingbird’s katana.
When Hummingbird failed to land a hit, she imdiately withdrew her sword.
Quickly spinning around, she slashed at Tom once more.
Seeing Tom’s familiar silhouette, Fang Xiaocao breathed a sigh of relief; it was like a flood sweeping through the Dragon King Temple – family mbers not recognizing each other.
Tom dodged the katana, and his black Dagger aid to slice at the hand Hummingbird held her sword with.
Hummingbird reacted quickly, very skillful.
Tom’s probing strike, naturally, did not injure Hummingbird, who took the opportunity to spin and kick at Tom’s groin.
