430 Onslaught Along The Way (1/2)

The scorching Flame of Red Lotus could make an Immortal Level Overlord capitulate in a heartbeat, much less Paul. The Russian War Bear quickly told Chen Fan the names of all those who were involved in the attack.

”North Division, The Blood Wolf Guard of KGB and the leaders of Russia. I see… I will make all of them pay.”

Chen Fan said lightly. He flicked his finger and shot out a golden flame from his fingers that landed on Paul. The golden flame quickly devoured Paul, reducing him to ash. After he had erased the memories of his bodyguards, he walked out of the bar with Natasha in tow.

When the two were out of the bar, Chen Fan paused and turned around to look at the girl. He linked his hands behind his back and asked.

”Now you know who my enemies are. Are you sure you want to help me still?”

Natasha hid behind Chen Fan, eyes gleaming with admiration. To her, Chen Fan might as well be a superhero in the movies.

”Of course! They have done you wrong first. You didn't harm Russia, but they attacked you out of jealousy and fear. Of course, you should hit back.”

Ever since Natasha learned what the Russian government did to Chen Fan, she had been feeling indignant.

Although Paul had only offered bits and pieces of information, Natasha had connected the dots and painted a shocking picture in her mind.

The Dark World, snow wolf clan, The Three Lords of the Dark Roll, Blood Wolf from the KGB… These were all the stuff of fiction. Yet, not only they turned out to be real, but they were all up against Chen Fan.

How powerful exactly was Chen Fan?

”So your name is Chen Beixuan? May I call you by that name, Sir?” Natasha asked quietly under her breath.

”Sure.”

Chen Fan paused a second and noticed that the girl was trembling in the cold wind.

”Let's go buy you some clothes and I need to change as well. we have a lot to do afterward.”

In early February of 2010, while everything stilled seemed ordinary on the surface in Russia, a dark undercurrent rose inside Russia's North Division.

February 15th, the captain of North Division stationed at the City of Yakutsk was found unconscious in the house of his mistress.

February 17th, a couple barged into the City of Alxin and kidnapped the general who was in charge of the missile unit stationed nearby. They walked away from the camp under all the other soldiers' disbelieving eyes.

February 19th, a Major was attacked in his home at Neryungri and was turned into a vegetable.

February 23…

”What are those idiots at the Intelligence Department up to? Haven't they find out who did this?”

Lieutenant General Scherchen Malenkov slammed the table in a fit of rage and shouted at the other officers at the meeting. They were sitting in a meeting room at the headquarters of the North Division located at Khabarovsk, the largest city in Northern Russia. The other military officers looked at each other in fear and offered no answer to Lieutenant General Malenkov.

The North Division had lost nearly twelve officers in less than half a month, including nine majors, two Captains, and one General Major. The attacker didn't kill them, instead, he had turned them into vegetables.

This was a blatant insult and humiliation to the North Division.

The news of these incidents got out, it shook the entire North Division.

Rumor had it that the incidents had even stirred the Department of National Defense at Moscow. They had started their own separate investigation into the incidents. The intelligence department's northern branch also worked round the clock to collect as much information as they could.

”General Scherchen, we have found out that there are two attackers. One male and the other female. The female is around twenty-seven, Caucasian, blonde. We have searched the national database and found a hundred and seventeen suspects. The male attacker, on the other hand, we know very little about him because none of the cameras could capture a good image of him. But we know that he is Asian.”

”All of their victims so far were officers of the North Division, so I wager they are targeting us directly. Based on anecdotal evidence, the two were nearly bulletproof. Some soldiers tried to stop them with a gun, but the bullets simply bound off of their bodies. They moved in and out so fast that when our soldiers finally readied the heavy weapons, they were already gone.”

”Considering their extraordinary abilities, the KGB had also sent out the Blood Wolf. Blood Wolf had already looked into it and concluded that they were either Martial arts grandmasters from China or Kendo Masters from Japan. Blood Wolf suggested using military force against them.”

A young strategist briefing the general on what they had learned so far.

”I already knew all of that. But who exactly is our enemy? Why are they targeting the North Division? I need to know.”

Scherchen slammed his fist on the table again.

”Grandmaster from China? Could it be someone seeking revenge for what happened last year?”

A young General Major put in.
