The Bodyguard System

Chapter 348 A Trap!



Jaden was amazed by the skill that this person that he had just killed possessed. Maybe it was not skill, but patients. After all, while the others had been moving around slightly, he had been in the same position for quite a while without moving at all.

Since he was not moving, and his breathing was regulated, Jaden was not able to tell that he was there. And that was the reason why he was able to attack the moment that Jaden went through the door.

It was just that Jaden's reaction speed was extremely high. Additionally, the moment that he began making a move, Jaden who was already cautious immediately noticed him, managing to dodge.

As for the attack that he had launched, even though it did not use his full strength, it consisted of almost half of his strength. That was the reason why Jaden did not doubt that he had already killed the other party.

After all, he could clearly feel the moment that his fist crushed the bones of the other party. It was clearly impossible for him to be able to survive, considering that the bones would puncture the lungs, and there was a possibility that even the heart might end up being wounded.

In that situation, it was obviously impossible for this person to be able to survive. And, he had also crashed through the wooden walls of the building. Just from that, it would be impossible for him to be able to stand up again.

Mouse and John looked at Jaden, before looking towards the figure that was currently collapsed on the ground together with the wooden splinters. They could not believe what had just happened. Could it be that the wooden walls were not that solid?

Maybe the type of wood that had been used here for the construction of this building was quite poor, leading to the wooden walls easily breaking?

After all, according to them, it was impossible for a person to be able to break through the wooden wall just like that. Additionally, there was another thing that surprised them. That was, how strong was Jaden, to be able to send a person flying like that?

Even if it was true that the wooden walls were extremely weak, it was clear that Jaden had sent the other party flying. That was definitely not something that just anybody could do.

And at this point, John's doubts about Jaden began increasing. He began doubting Jaden's identity even more, while quite curious about his intentions of becoming a bodyguard.

And after experiencing the skills that Jaden possessed, John was more inclined to believe that Jaden had some form of grudge with the Bloodhound Mercenary group. Otherwise, why would he even bother to become a bodyguard with such an ability?

Jaden did not care about what the two people were currently thinking. After all, currently, they were inside the enemy territory. And so, they had to make sure that they had eliminated everyone, before finally being able to relax a little.

Thinking about that, he began walking down the corridor, heading towards the staircase. Currently, they were on the ground floor, and so far, Jaden had seen that the staircase in front of them led towards the next floor.

As for the mercenaries that might be within the ground floor, Jaden decided to believe that Oliver and the other team members were capable of taking care of this issue. Otherwise, if they were eliminated, then there was no need for them to be referred to as a special unit.

John wanted to say something when he realized that Jaden was showing the intention of going upwards. But, he decided against it. In any case, it was not as if Jaden was planning to do something different, other than what had brought them there.

Since they were going to eliminate the mercenaries anyway, they could deal with those on the top floor, before finally coming back down. Additionally, he believed that even if they were not as skilled as Jaden was, the other team members would definitely be capable of taking care of the rest of the mercenaries.

Additionally, considering the size of this stronghold, John believed that the number of mercenaries here was not that high. And since they had already killed 13 of them, it was clear that not many of them had remained.

After all, even if it was true that the Bloodhound mercenary group possessed many mercenaries, it was impossible for them to be able to station many mercenaries here, considering that they had other tasks that had to be handled in other cities, not just one of them.

Even if it was to take care of John, it was impossible for them to use the entire manpower of the entire mercenary group. Instead, they would simply send a small group that they believed was capable of taking care of John.

The three of them consecutively moved towards the staircase. But just before they started climbing the staircase, Jaden suddenly stopped, leading to both John and Mouse to stop as well.

While the two of them were curious about the reason why Jaden had stopped, Jaden looked at the small string that was nearly invisible. Clearly, this was a trap that had been set by the mercenary group.

And the moment that Jaden saw this, he believed that it seemed that this mercenary group had already been waiting for the Eagle team to come over.

Jaden frowned for a moment. From this, he could infer that there was a possibility that this was just a trap that had been set by the mercenary group. It was clear that the activity that they had been involved in before, was just a method the day were using in order to attract John over.

Additionally, Jaden could tell that there was a possibility that this mercenary group possessed much more information than John and the others believed.

Considering the investigation that he had carried out, Jaden realized that the Bloodhound mercenary group had only carried out an activity recently, and considering this building, it is clear that they had been stationed here for quite a while.

From this, there was a great possibility that they had taken action just in order to attract John and his team over. Additionally, there was a possibility that the other team members of the special unit were currently occupied with other matters.

And if that was not the case, there was a possibility that they already knew that John and the Eagle team would be the ones that would be coming over instead of the other teams.

"There is a trap here. It seems that they are targeting you." Jaden suddenly said while looking at John.

John was momentarily stunned. Why would they target him? Of course, he understood that there was a conflict between him and the second in command of the Bloodhound mercenary group.

But, how was it possible for them to be able to set a trap for him, considering that even the information channels of the special unit were regulated in such a way that they were not connected to any online platform.

In this case, it was obviously almost impossible for a person to be able to hack into the information system, and get the information about the rotation of the special unit.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

As for the members of the special unit, not many people really knew about them. For instance, for John, only his family members knew that he was part of the special unit.

As for those that had been rushing over in order to become his bodyguard, so that they could earn greater reputation, it was simply because they had already got an information that John was being targeted by the Bloodhound mercenary group.

Jaden did not explain despite seeing the perplexed expression on John's face. Instead, he pointed towards the small string that was currently blocking their path.

And upon carefully observing, John and Mouse were finally able to notice the string. If they had actually rushed forward, they might have triggered a trap.

Of course, they knew this kind of trap. They had already experienced it several times, when they were dealing with the mercenaries that already knew that they were being targeted by the special unit.

This string, the moment that someone touched it, it would immediately trigger a bomb. And, in most cases, the magnitude of the explosion was not something to be underestimated.

At this point, John suddenly understood. It seemed that this was actually a trap, just like Jaden had said. And, there was a great possibility that there was actually nobody upstairs.

As for the others that had remained and had already been killed, perhaps they were the ones that had been assigned to eliminate John. And just to be sure that they eliminated him, they even set up a trap for him.

"I believe that if an explosion goes off right now, this entire building is going to be leveled to the ground. We should not touch it at all!" John said, his voice trembling slightly.

It might be true that he was quite brave, but in the face of death, even the bravest of warriors would obviously show some hint of fear. Just thinking that he had actually avoided death, finally, John began taking the threat of the Bloodhound mercenary seriously.

It might be true that he might be able to fight them, if he was asked to, and he believed that if he had to fight one-on-one against the second in command, or even the leader of the Bloodhound mercenary group, he would be able to fight, things were completely different now.

If traps and other underhanded methods were used, it was clear that he might end up dying without even knowing how he had ended up dying.

"Let's get out of here. There is no need for us to continue being here." Jaden said, as he began walking away.
