1195 Mystery 1 (2/2)
Swoosh!
What remained of his sabers suddenly flashed white.
One of the men on another speedboat was flung straight into the sea. The other man voluntarily jumped into the sea, diving down for his life, fearing that he could not escape in time.
”This monster!!” One of the attackers yelled out in fear.
All of the attackers rapidly started retreating, leaving behind dozens of corpses without a second word. Within a brief moment, all of them had retreated at least ten meters away from Garen, desperately praying that he was not pursuing them from behind. They just kept on moving and running for their lives.

”Even High Explosives couldn't harm him…”
Inside a submarine under the sea.
In the darkness, a figure said lowly whilst facing at the surveillance screen. He looked at Garen who was standing on top of a speedboat without so much as a scratch on him.
”Any counter-strategies?” Another person in the darkness asked softly.
”This guy seems to be like the Four Great Cornerstones, maybe a new Cornerstone?” The man facing the screen asked suspiciously. ”At the beginning, Slayer was the same. High Explosives basically had no effect on him.”
”Impossible. Cornerstones would have specific Sacred Sigils, but he doesn't have any,” the person in the darkness replied.
”So what's the plan?”
”Let's go with number three,” the person in the darkness answered, ”No matter how strong his individual potential, there will eventually come a time where he's powerless.”
”That's true.”

”Are you fine?” Nine-Tailed Fox, Li Hua and Garen gathered together back at the cruise ship. At that moment, the cruise ship surprisingly did not have any major damages, it only had a few scratches and burns here and there. The surviving members of the special agents were rapidly putting out the fires along with the crew members. The battle was over. There were even some passengers who dared to peek out to check on the situation.
”It's fine. I didn't get hit that much, it's only a scratch,” Garen shook his head as a gesture signaling that he was fine, at the same time, his gaze moved towards a point afar.
This caused Nine-Tailed Fox and Li Hua to also shift their gaze in the same direction.
”What are you looking at?” Just as Li Hua finished asking her question, she was immediately silenced.
Honk…
At this moment.
A small warship appeared in the distance. It was in the shape of a fish, completely white, with a silver-white crab logo on its sides.
On the side of the warship, a white robot with a metal exterior was stationed. Its three-meter tall body lifted up a person with a single hand in a chokehold. It was a beautiful girl with a nice figure and long hair.
The girl was being choked at her neck, her body struggling mid-air. She was desperately hitting the robot's arms with her fists, but to no avail.
”Ah Xue…”
Nine-Tailed Fox's voice suddenly turned icy cold.
Garen and Li Hua had also recognized who the struggling girl was. It was definitely Ah Xue. Although they had already prepared for Kong Xinxue to be captured as part of their original plan, the problem was that the one who captured her was not Slayer and his men, like the plan intended, but rather another completely unknown force.
What were their goals? Why did they know their situation so well? All of these factors remained unknown to them. At this point, all three of them were quite sure that there was definitely a spy in their midst.
At this time, the escaped attackers on speedboats were rapidly getting onto the small warship, climbing in from behind the ship.
”Do you want to save her?”
A husky male's voice rang out loudly from afar.
”Then come and meet me… Sword Master, you must come alone. Or else…”
Rip!
The robot just ripped of the white one-piece blouse Kong Xinxue was wearing, revealing her stark nude body that was going commando.
Her snow-white body looked almost as if it was glowing in the distance. Garen could even here the passengers behind him exclaiming and gulping.
”Heh… This is getting interesting,” he carelessly tossed his two broken sabers away, they were no longer of any use anymore. ”You guys head back.”
Without even looking back, he ordered, ”I will deal with him by myself.”
”They obviously know us very well. Be careful,” Nine-Tailed Fox lowly warned.
”Do you have confidence?” Li Hua asked softly.
”No clue,” Garen chuckled. With a light leap, he dived into the water causing a splash, almost like a pelican diving into the sea. Then he started swimming towards the warship, his movements as natural as a fish. His speed was almost comparable to the speedboats earlier, leaving a white trail behind him as he zoomed towards the warship.
