Chapter 436
After seeing Petes’s tattoo, Han knew the Bloody Devil mercenary group was about to strike.
He did not expect them to act so quickly. After just two hours, they began to take action. The rich
people hadn’t yet started their discussions.
“What do you mean an attack? Bandits havee to the ship to attack us?”
Christine saw the explosion, and her expression changed drastically. She was so terrified; she quickly
put on her clothes.
In the past, while on a mission to a small war-torn country, she was attacked and was almost killed by
stray bullets and explosions.
She would have died in that country if her boss had not spent all that money to hire Han to protect
her.
Now that it was happening again, she was overwhelmed with fear as she recalled memories from the
past.
“That’s right. A gathering of millionaires is the perfect ce for bandits to attack,” Han said.
BOOM!
As they spoke, they heard another earth-shattering explosion.
The entire Swan Cruise ship began to shake and sink, causing many ss bottles in the room to fall to
the ground and
shatter
Christine lost her bnce as the ship shook: she fell into Han’s arms.
Han held onto Christine He had a solemn expression as he stood firm and steady. It was as if his
feet were rooted to the ground
No matter how much the ship plunged, he did not fall. He was as stable as a mountain.
After a little while, the ship stopped rocking and finally stabilized
The room was a mess, and all the items that had fallen to the ground were nowpletely broken.
“W-What’s going on? Our ship is also being attacked? Christine looked even more frightened. She felt
uneasy and gripped Han’s hand even tighter
Im here. Don’t be afraid,” said Han.
Suddenly, they heard footstepsing from outside, and their door was kicked open
A mercenary appeared at the door masked and fully armed. He raised his gun and pointed it at Han
and Christine. He then shouted. “You two, get out immediately!
There was an emblem of a skull and crossbones on the left side of his shirt.
It was the Bloody Devil mercenary group!
Han grimaced at the mercenary
“Bastard, are you refusing to leave? You are begging to die!”
Just as Han was hesitating whether to obey or resist, he heard another mercenary next door shout.
The sound of gunshots and screams followed
“You don’t know what’s good for you. You want to die””
That’s what the mercenary yelled after the gunshots and cries.
It was clear the mercenary had murdered the person in the next room!
When Christine heard the person scream, she was even more shaken. She grabbed Han even
harder.
The mercenary standing at their door sneered and raised his gun at Han. “Did you hear that? Im
warning you, raise your hands now and follow my lead or else I will do the same thing to you”
“Where are you taking us?” Han asked.
Just then, a cold voice came from the mercenary’s earpiece. “The boss has instructed us not to show
any mercy. Kill anyone who dares not to leave or asks useless questions!”
As soon as the mercenary heard this, he gave Han a deadly look and aimed his gun at Han
again.
Puff!
The moment the mercenary raised his gun, it felt like a thin silver needle had pierced his palm.
Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.
The mercenary lost control of his finger and could not pull the trigger.

“Wh-what?” The mercenary looked confused.
He tried to use whatever energy he could muster, but his fingers still couldn’t move. He thought quickly
and tried to use his other hand to pull out another pistol from his waist.
Before he could strike, Han had already appeared before him like a ghost. With one blow to the
neck, Han shattered the bones in the mercenary’s neck.
The mercenary’s eyes were wide open, and his mouth was filled with blood. He was dead when he fell
to the ground. Han took the clothes off the mercenary’s body and put them on himself.
Then, he threw the mercenary’s corpse into the bathroom and turned to Christine. “Stay here and don’t
move. I’lle back for youter!”
“I’m scared. Don’t leave me!” Christine said as she grabbed Han’s hand. Her eyes were filled with
fear.
After what just happened, why would she stay in the room alone?
Her intuition told her it was safer to stay by Han’s side.
“Alright, you cane with me, but I need you to pretend I’m holding you hostage. Do you
understand?” Han said. Christine nodded willingly.
Without hesitation, Han covered her face, pulled her close to him, and dragged her out of the room
like a hostage.
They exited the room and realized how many mercenaries were on the ship. Some were dragging
people out of their rooms and into the spacious corridor.
Other mercenaries were forcing people out of the rooms with guns held to their heads.
There were too many mercenaries, more than thirty of them.
Each one of them was fully armed.
Han and Christine managed to blend into the crowd without looking suspicious.
One of the millionaires began to resist but was immediately shot in the head by the mercenary next to
him. Blood sttered around the corridor.
The security guards that the Zabel family hired had all been killed, and their bodies were lying in the
corridor in pools of blood.
The scenes were tragic; the ship looked like hell on Earth.
The situation had all the tycoons and millionaires so petrified that their faces turned pale, and no one
dared to resist again. Han looked around and frowned.
There were too many mercenaries on the first floor. Knowing that this ship had at least five or six floors,
there must have been at least 200 mercenaries.
This fleet had three ships, so there could have been at least 600 mercenaries altogether.
Han scowled at the thought of this.
Where did the Bloody Devil mercenary groupe from? They were known to be active in Aestica.
They obviously had many general-ss experts and could even mobilize over 600 at one time.
This was the full strength of a battalion
More importantly, how did they get to this fleet of ships in the first ce? There were so many of them.
How did the Zabel family’s personnel and security not notice theming?
These mercenaries appeared out of nowhere with so many weapons. They killed the Zabel family’s
staff and security. Their n to take over the ship was well organized; it was an evident pre-nned
attack.
“Where did the Zabel family’s general-ss experts go?” Han thought. “Han, where are we going
now?” Christine whispered.
Han said quietly, “Don’t worry. For now, let’s follow them and see what happens.”
There were too many mercenaries around them; they all carried letha a lot of casualties.
For now, Han could only improvise.
He pretended to drag Christine as he followed the group of mercenaries.
They arrived at a spacious warehouse.
weapons. If they attempted to attack, there would be
The ce was heavily guarded!
There were fully armed mercenaries at every corner of the warehouse.
“Get in!”
The mercenaries were quite rough. They pushed people into the warehouse and locked them up.
People walked in one after the other. Eventually, the ce was filled with more than a hundred people,
men and women.
All the hostages were millionaires and all part of society’s elite.
Sadly, they were all reduced to prisoners. They were trembling and looking at the mercenaries in fear.
What they saw some of the mercenaries do had disturbed them. None of them dared to move.
“Get in!”
Han also pushed Christine into the warehouse. He then stood at her side and observed everything
quietly.
He needed to figure out what was happening, so he decided to wait and watch patiently. He would only
take action once he understood the situation.
Just then, another mercenary walked in holding an old man.
The mercenary guarding the door stopped both men and said. “All the people locked up here are worth
six million dors. Mr. Thomas is worth more than ten million dors alone. Take him to Warehouse 2.”
