Eternal Thief Chapter 161 - Rain

The very next mont thereafter the sudden slash, ten human streams of blood rose!

The ten living baits' heads were rolling on the muddy group as their eyes were filled with incredulity.

No one expected this gushy outco.

All the people in the living bath group thought that these nobles only needed so of their blood and after they will let them go

But the reality differed completely from what they expected. From the start, these nobles didn't plan to spare them at all.

And why would they? If the news of this huge conspiracy got out, the outco would be disastrous!

After all, if people were to find out that the institute leaked the test nature beforehand then its reputation would take a trendous hit!

Moreover, these nobles would be despite by many and there is a very big chance of rebellion!

That's why these aristocrats didn't have any plan to spare anyone from the start. Even if there are other nobles in these baits.

As long as, there are not from the capital city, they're not important!

After seeing the deathly fate of the first ten living baits, the others didn't stay still and let that guy butcher them!

Everyone in the living baits group quickly grab their weapons in panic and attacked those two nobles' footn with no hesitation!

"Humph! aningless struggled!" The boy who killed the first ten sneered after seeing those living baits' bloodshot eyes.

The boy with scholar looks also didn't put these ants' dying struggles in his eyes and didn't move from his position showing any hint of fear.

However, sothing unexpected occurs when those hundreds of Qi-less attacks reached those two nonchalantly standing footn.

The boy with a raptor in his hand was going to attack like before since he had the imnse advantage of being in perfect condition and these attacks being without ant Qi!

But before he could move his hand, he saw a beam and before he could make head or tail of it, this beam brushed past his neck!

He felt nothing first and thought it was just his imagination until he felt sothing warm and wet on his neck.

This is the last thing he felt before his head was rolling on the floor and dying in confusion.

The scholar boy also ets the sa fate, and he also dies because of that mysterious beam!

When those living baits saw this astonishing scene, they were bewildered.

"RUN!"

So in the living baits roar out loud.

Everyone snapped out of their stupor and began fleeing in different directions!

This was their chance to escape. Even if the odds were against them they were not willing to die like this!

When Mark and Leo's parties saw those two peaks fifty Qi gate lackeys' unexpected deaths, their hearts sank!

They didn't take any action because killing soone with those two lackeys' capabilities in a flash is not a laughing matter.

They could tell sothing went extrely wrong!

"A powerful expert is hiding in those living baits!" Leo grimly said.

"Whoever it is, they didn't seem to co in peace." Mark narrowed his eyes.

"Your highness, please leave this place as quickly as possible! There is sothing extrely wrong!" A tall boy in green robes grimly said to Mark!

"Let's wait, since that person didn't attack us it ans it didn't want to kill us. We just happen to be captured the wrong person!" Haley calmly speaks at this mont.

Mark frowned and said, "What do you an we caught the wrong person?"

Haley nonchalantly said, "It's manageable, we caught soone who was hiding its capabilities. Didn't you see it just killed two of our people when they kill? We can assu that it was a warning and now that every living bait is running it will also get away without giving away its identity. All we had to do is just not prove it."

"And how are we going to do that?" Mark asked in bewildernt. He had to admit his sister's guess was almost on point. That's why he asked for her opinion this ti without rebuking.

"It's very simple, we just have to let all the living baits escape." Haley reply.

Mark grimace after hearing Haley. It was indeed the only thing they can do, but in doing so they will also have to let go of their chance of obtaining Phantom Horn Lizards easily!

Because they had spent 3 whole days to collect these living baits and if they let go of them, then this ans they had to find those lizards like everyone else!

"You heard the Princess. Don't go after them let them die on their own!" Leo's calm voice resounded at this mont.

Mark's face fell when he followed this annoying voice and saw Leo has sneaked closer to Haley in this disturbance!

"Who gives you the permission to co here?" Mark glared at Leo with a hint of anger in his voice.

"My heart." Leo smile at Hailey and replied. But he didn't look at Mark.

"YOU!" Mark wanted to hit Leo when he saw Leo teasing his sister so bluntly.

Those beside them had a wry smile on their faces. They knew this White Ghost was a womanizer but hitting on the princess and doing it in front of the Prince nonetheless, just show how gutsy he was.

'Tip, tip, tip…'

At this mont droplets of water dropped on the aristocrats.

"Fine, we're not chasing those slaves, this thod is as good as impossible in this rain anyway." Mark pursed his lips and said with deep resentnt in his eyes.

"Young Prince is wise." Leo chuckles while nodding.

Mark clenched his fist tightly, he could tell Leo was making fun of him.

Haley spoke to her brother who was on the verge of exploding, "Royal Brother, how about we continue our alliance with Young Duke? Now we need every alley we can get since we're going deep in this forest."

Mark hatefully looked at Leo before taking a deep breath. He soothes his anger because he also has the sa opinion as Haley.

"Who said we're going deep in this forest?" Leo chuckles at this mont.

"Oh, I wonder what Young Duke has in mind?" Haley impassively looked at Leo as a hint of interest flashed past her beautiful eyes.

Leo smile broadly while Mark's face sank, but he didn't retort since he also wanted to hear Leo's plan.

"Who said all the living baits are gone?" Leo smile slyly and said, "I knew where Young Duke Anthony and his minions are."

"You wanted to ambush Anthony?" Mark frowned.

Leo sneered at this mont, "Don't tell our Young Prince is concerned about his subjects?"

"We can't do anything in this rain." Mark coolly said.

"So, did Anthony. We just have to wait for this rain to stop." Leo gloom the next mont, "But if the black water swamp flooded this forest, then we have to work extra hard."

Leo knew once the black water swamp floods this area many extrely toxin demonic beasts will co with it. This forest is the only area where one can find Phantom Horn Lizard easily but it was whole another story when it was flooded.

The most frustrating thing was the living bait thod also only worked in this area since those Bloodthirsty Earth Mantis were founded in this place.

Although this thod might work in water, the blood will draw even more vicious beings and it is very difficult to see in black water.

But Leo knew that Young Duke Anthony too well, and he knew Anthony will take his chance and might pull off the impossible because Anthony had a very precious detection treasure of his family.

As for how Leo know about this information, it is very simple because he seduced and sleep with Anthony's younger sister!

On the other part of the poisonous forest,

Ace was pretend to be fleeing with his party of eight after the chaos.

Although Ace's party mbers' conditions were not optimal, they were still unwilling to die.

When the first drop of rain fell on Ace's face, he was instantly thrilled because the ti has finally co when he can use his abilities to so extent even if that expert didn't give up and keep using his martial sense in this rain.

But to Ace's astonishnt the mont the first drop of water fell on the group the martial sense completely vanished!

'Hahaha, so you also have limits.' Ace was ecstatic, but he didn't let this sudden joy cloud his judgnt and kept pretending to be a helpless living bait.

Because there was a possibility that this is a trap so he could make a mistake. Since the rain was still slow Ace didn't want to take any chances.

Just five minutes after the rain, Ace was still moving while supporting Dewan and Nola was leading the way weakly.

Crosby was not with them as he was slipped away long ago since he knew it would court death to stay with this group.

"Stop, right there!" At this mont an authoritative and powerful voice resounded in the vacancy out of nowhere!

When Ace felt this soul signature, he nearly had a stroke!
