Chapter 1335 It's Not Just One Person

The black shadow said, "Leonard has transferred most of his forces to the royal palace. Even the woman beside him has dispatched a large number of people. Together with the people of the Ye Lv Royal Palace, they have surrounded the entire palace tightly. If we act rashly now, we will definitely alert the enemy."

"Then find a way to draw those people away," the woman's voice clearly carried a hint of displeasure.

The black shadow knelt on the ground nervously. "Master, give me three more days. I will definitely make these two people die in the Ye Lv Royal Palace. Then, no one will stand in the way of your great cause."

The woman remained silent for a long time.

Suddenly, she turned around sharply and faced the black shadow with her masked face. "Fine, three days. I want to see their corpses."

"Don't worry, Master!"

The black shadow said.

The woman looked up at the dark sky, and a vicious smile curled up on her lips.

After waiting for so long, she never expected that this day was finally coming!

Just like when she came, the woman disappeared without a trace. After she vanished from Xiangyuan Garden, the black shadow leaped onto the roof. His sharp eyes, like those of an eagle, carefully scanned the surroundings.

Although he was hiding very secretly, he could clearly see the dense crowd of people, all of whom were elite figures sent by Bradley.

The black shadow knew the abilities of these people. They were by no means ordinary.

Therefore, he would never engage with these people unless it was absolutely necessary.

The black shadow quickly withdrew his gaze and finally looked at the room where Bradley and Freya were resting. It was more than a hundred meters away from his position. Using a sniper rifle might not guarantee a sure hit, and it would easily attract attention.

So he approached at an eerie speed. While running, he took out three darts from his body and shot them towards the window.

There was a loud "bang" sound, and an explosion rang in his ears.

The two people who were keeping alert rolled out of the bed at the same time. One leaped out of the window, and the other opened the door and chased after the attacker.

However, the black shadow flashed past in front of their eyes and quickly disappeared in the eastern direction.

"Chase!"

Freya was about to give chase, but Bradley reached out and stopped her. "Be careful of a trap. Don't chase."

After saying that, Bradley pulled out a dart from the glass. The glass, which had only had a small crack before, now made a "sizzling" sound as cracks spread across it.

The next second, the glass shattered like sudden raindrops, making a series of "bang bang bang" sounds.

Bradley reacted immediately. He quickly hugged Freya and protected her in his arms. The broken glass mercilessly scratched his back, leaving a series of bloody wounds.

Freya clearly smelled the fresh scent of blood. The feeling of dizziness hit her again, accompanied by nausea. She raised her hand to cover her mouth and retched continuously.

This lasted for a full thirty seconds. The entire window was left empty, and the ground was covered with broken glass shards.

The night wind blew in gusts, biting at their bodies. Even though Freya was hiding in Bradley's arms, she was still shivering from the cold.

"It's okay. It's all over now!"

Even though his back was as full of wounds as a hedgehog, Bradley still protected Freya well and kept soothing her emotions.

Freya tried her best to control this discomfort, but the smell of blood still made her feel very uncomfortable.

"I'll be fine after a while."

Her condition seemed to be getting worse. Any pungent smell could make her feel nauseous and dizzy.

Bradley picked her up lovingly and carried her back to the bed as quickly as possible. Then he carefully examined her entire body. After confirming that she wasn't injured anywhere, he let out a sigh of relief.

"You have a good rest. I'll go and check the situation around us."

Ignoring the wounds on his back, Bradley returned to the window and picked up the three darts on the ground.

The blue tail fins emitted a dazzling luster, and they were actually made of peacock feathers.

The crucial thing was that the tips of the darts were very thin, much thinner than an ordinary needle. Just a light touch with his finger, and Bradley got a cut on his skin.

The sharpness of these darts was truly beyond that of ordinary weapons.

At this moment, Blue Book came back to report the situation.

As soon as they heard the commotion, all the members of the Dark Web were alerted. They immediately set out to pursue the man in black, but the other party had used a smoke bomb to shake them off.

"Lord of the Country, the person has escaped."

Blue Book apologized.

Bradley waved his hand to indicate it was okay. "That person has extraordinary skills. Moreover, having been deployed in the Ye Lv Royal Family for so long, he is naturally very familiar with the situation here. It's not that easy for you to catch him!"

The other party had acted quickly and fled even faster.

In addition, who knew what kind of crises were hidden in this royal palace? If they chased after him and fell into the enemy's trap, wouldn't that be exactly what the enemy wanted?

"Also, I need you to disguise yourselves as the guards and maids of the royal palace and secretly figure out everything in this palace. I suspect that this person is proficient in the art of disguise and is moving around in the palace with countless identities."

Bradley calmed down and thought carefully. The direction from which the shot was fired at Si Shenglin before was clearly from among the guards. That is to say, the mastermind behind the scenes might have disguised himself as a guard and lurked among them.

Later, Freya was lured to Xiangyuan Garden in the north by a maid who came to invite her.

So, in this royal palace, there was not just one mastermind.

They were scattered among the guards and maids, watching their every move with strange eyes.

Bradley felt that they couldn't just wait passively any longer. Tonight, the darts hit the window, but who knew if someone would lose their life next time?

Therefore, before the mastermind behind the scenes took action, they had to take the initiative and disrupt all of their plans.

Blue Book said with some difficulty, "Lord of the Country, we can disguise ourselves as guards, but being maids... How can a group of us big men play the role of maids?"

They were all tough men who had undergone strict training, with rough skin and large builds. It was not appropriate for them to disguise themselves as maids, and the key was that it was easy to expose them.

Bradley raised his eyebrows and said, "The people from Raven Pavillion are also here. Let White Fox make the arrangements."

This plan had to be carried out.

Hiding in the dark was no longer effective. So, he would have his people also disguise themselves with various identities and lurk in the palace.

"Okay, I'll go and do it right away!"

After saying that, Blue Book turned around and left. Bradley was still staring blankly at the three darts.

Just by looking at the blue feathers, one could tell they were special. Moreover, they were from a rare peacock species. One could imagine that the identity of this man in black was not simple.

Putting away the darts, Bradley ordered a maid to come and clean up the broken glass and then went to check on Freya's condition.

She had suddenly become weak and vomited, and her face had turned pale. It was obvious that her dizziness had flared up again.

When he arrived, he saw that Freya had already sat up.

Bradley quickly approached and frowned. "You're not feeling well. Lie down and rest."

Freya, however, said, "It's okay. Let me take a look at your wound first."

At the moment when the glass exploded, Bradley had protected her well with his chest, but his back had endured the ravages of the glass shards.

Even if he didn't say anything, Freya knew that his injuries were not minor.
