Chapter 74 I Serve Mr. Smith
Chapter 74 I Serve Mr. Smith
Back on the twenty-fifth floor of the Kingsang Building, Matthew flung the female assassin to the
ground.
"That hurts!"
The female assassin woke up from the fall and felt a sore back, but when she looked up her eyes
widened.
Her target was in front of her.
"You guys!"
With a jolt, the female assassin got up and struck a starting pose, only to find that the dagger was not
on her.
Turning back again, she found the familiar dagger being played with in her target's hand.
"Atlantic Empire Field Dagger Hammett III, you've got some skills."
Crane spoke leisurely.
A slight shudder ran through the female assassin's mind.
This dagger, a new combat equipment developed by one of the Atlantic Empire's military industry
companies, was reasonably limited to certain areas of circulation, and even those military enthusiasts
in the country would not be familiar with it, but the man in front of her was able to tell its details, and a
thought came to the female assassin's mind -
There's been an intelligence error!
A subordinate whose strength crushed her own, coupled with this amount of knowledge, how could he
be an ordinary office worker!
"What the hell are you?"
The female assassin gritted her teeth and asked, suddenly remembering a movie from a certain
country. Would these guys rape her before killing her, after all, many rich men seek female assassins to
assassinate themselves for the purpose of enjoying this pleasure.
But she was wrong about Crane.
"From Hammett?"
Crane asked instead of answering.
He had been fighting outside the country for several years, and had seen too many fighting factions,
among which the fighting style of the Hammett Company was unique. Although Crane did not look up
to it, he remembered some of it, the fighting style that this female assassin had used against Matthew
previously was the style of the Hammett Company.
The female assassin's eyelids fluttered slightly.
"You know about Hammett?"
By Hammett, she was referring not only to the military-industrial side, but also to the assassin
organization that Hammett kept, and she had retired from Hammett and was now back in the country
as a part-time assassin.
Crane smiled and said, "Of course I know about the Hammett Killer Company, you sent quite a lot of
people to snipe me back then, and one of them is called Hammett I, who is working under me now."
"What!"
The female assassin's face paled.
"What are you kidding? Hammett I went to assassinate Dragon Lord of Cryptoclidus Palace, and his
whereabouts are still unknown, how is it possible ......" Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
Suddenly, the female assassin's words came to a screeching halt as she looked at Crane with an
incredulous expression, "You, you, you are Dragon Lord of Cryptoclidus Palace?"
"You are right."
Crane flung his hand and tossed the dagger back to the female assassin, "Do you want to try it?"
"I!"
The female slayer swallowed hard.
Having the dagger back in her hand did add a lot of security, but she wouldn't dare to attack Crane.
Even if he was not Dragon Lord of Cryptoclidus Palace, his subordinate alone was so powerful, who
dared to guarantee that Crane's skill would be inferior to hers?
"Oh," Crane gave a lighter laugh, "Have you ever thought about changing careers."
"What?"
"I mean, do you want to consider not being a killer? It's nice to be a bodyguard, isn't it?"
"You want me to protect you?"
The female assassin froze, and then a chill went down her spine.
A female bodyguard is of the same nature as a female secretary.
In the mind of the female assassin, Crane was undoubtedly this category of disgusting character.
She could see it clearly, before this man was still with his wife, and then he had motive on her as soon
as her wife left.
There's no good man in this world!
But Crane stared at her with interest.
"It seems you have some misconceptions about me, but you can rest assured that I wouldn't have
interest in you, and it's my wife I want you to protect."
"How about if you can keep my wife safe and I can keep you safe from Hammett in the future?"
The female assassin's grew more and more horrified at his words.
Indeed, she did not quit Hammett's informally.
No, to be more precise, Hammett's rule is that unless you die, you have to work for Hammett for the
rest of your life even if you are crippled. She couldn't stand Hammett's hellish life back then and quit
halfway through the year. Over the years, she had changed her name, but she had almost got killed by
them for several times.
The man in front of her was clearly making an offer she couldn't refuse, but she still said with some
distrust, "Can you really guarantee my safety? If the Hammett's top assassin comes forward, you may
be killed too."
Surely he had mentioned Hammett I before, but Hammett I was only an ace assassin a few years ago,
and if his strength hadn't declined too much, he wouldn't have been sent as a scapegoat to assassinate
Dragon Lord of Cryptoclidus Palace, so Hammett's top assassin wasn't something Hammett I could
compare to.
Unbeknownst to her, Hammett I had now changed his name and was ranked as the thirty-seventh
Dragon Guard, not only back at the top, but also at a higher level of strength.
"Don't worry, with me around, not to mention Hammett, even Purgatory wouldn't dare to take half a step
into the East!"
"Great Eastern Kingdom, Mercenary Forbidden Zone!"
Crane said with great arrogance.
The female assassin couldn't help but swallow.
Indeed.
She had also encountered Hammett's assassin two years ago, but since that battle back then, the
powers and even the major powers outside the country did not dare to cross half a step, only because
there was Cryptoclidus Palace in the East, and Cryptoclidus Palace had Dragon Lord!
This place is, indeed, a no-go area for the mercenaries and the killers!
"But in that case, it doesn't seem necessary for me to protect you."
The female assassin was acutely aware of this.
Just being able to choke Hammett into not going after her didn't seem to convince her.
Crane naturally understood this and smiled lightly.
"Do you want to get stronger?"
"Do you want to be strong enough to destroy the entire Hammett?"
"If you want to, stay with me, if not, I'll kill you."
Lucrative.
A threat.
Crane had never been an indecisive man who liked to haggle.
He wanted to take in the female assassin just because he saw that she did have some skills and was
considered a teachable talent.
But if she didn't convince, Crane wouldn't let go of anyone who tried to kill himself and might threaten
the safety of his wife's life.
"My name is Sienna Mitchell."
The female assassin spat out her name, meaning clearly that she was willing to serve Crane.
"Very good."
Crane nodded slightly and asked in a deep voice, "Tell me, who is the one who hired you?"
"Bernard Scott."
Sienna told the truth.
It's not a matter of interest or not, it's simply because she disliked Bernard.
This guy had previously hired her and tried to insult her, and she nearly destroyed one of his arms.
