The information received by his eyes was converted into electrical signals in less than an instant's timeframe, creating nerve impulses that traveled to his brain!
Before the brain could receive the nerve impulses, the body, which had been professionally trained and had already developed fighting instincts, had already reflexively made a counterattack to kevin's attack!
The cervical vertebrae were still executing the turn back command given by the brain in the previous instant, turning backward, not yet fully deflected, and the more immediate, more efficient nervous system within the torso had completed a closed reflex loop, and the body, as an effector, made the movements that had been incorporated into its instincts during training!
At the same time as the cervical vertebrae turned and twisted his head, his five fingers had quickly lifted up, and in the rapidly swinging air, he cupped them into an iron fist and punched it straight out!
Strong killing intent was infused into this punch, the training of professional soldiers centered on subduing the enemy in the first place, and the safest subduing was nothing more than making their enemy, stop all life activities!
As a result, the concept instilled in them during their training was to kill with one blow, and every punch and kick would carry a strong killing intent!
It was the strong killing intent contained in the guard's punch that stimulated Kevin's body, forcing him to react instinctively under the chi sense!
The arm that was originally raised violently took control of the guard's shoulder before he had the chance to fully turn his head, and the entire body was instantly flipped over with this arm as well as the guard's shoulder as the fulcrum!
The tremendous force directly deflected the guard's punch, and kevin's other arm, had already looped over the back of his neck!
The short sword in his right hand had completed the exchange as kevin's body flipped three hundred and sixty degrees, and with the strength provided by the guard's body, kevin's feet stomped on the ground without making the slightest sound!
The guard's body, on the other hand, was uncontrollably driven up as kevin flipped over, spinning in place and falling face-first into the air on top of kevin's half-kneeling thighs!
Kevin's left hand, on the other hand, looped around the back of his neck and pressed the blade of his unmatched short sword, close to the guard's throat!
Through his dark goggles, kevin's keen vision in the darkness was able to clearly observe the shock in the guard's eyes, as well as the fear that was rapidly growing and dilating in his pupils!
"Pfft!"
In the instant that kevin's consciousness had just returned, the dark and deep short sword in his hand had subconsciously wiped across the guard's neck!
Only a soft thud was heard, and the incredibly sharp blade easily sliced through the layer of defense on his collar that was barely better than none at all!
The thin skin, the layer of fat behind a few millimeters, the fragile carotid aorta as well as the larynx were sliced right through the sharp blade the moment it descended, as if it had cut through the air without resistance!
Hot, fishy red hot blood gushed out, splashing more than a meter high, as if a fountain filled with rust, emitting a strong fishy smell!
The emotion in the guard's eyes froze instantly, the luster quickly dimming, and even the sound of fear that had momentarily built up in his throat before it had a chance to spread was frozen forever in the middle of his slit throat!
Gently putting down the body, kevin could hardly help but sit down on the ground, it had been such a thrill just now, just one moment away from their plan falling apart completely!
But thankfully, he made it!
kevin managed to pull off his first assassination!
After the high level of tension, kevin welcomed an involuntary relaxation, and in the midst of that relaxation, there was an intense exhilaration!
Looking at the rapidly cooling corpses at his feet, kevin's eyes flashed with a trace of undisguised excitement, recalling the gentle touch of the arterial trachea slicing open as he slashed his own short sword across his throat, the sword blade bringing out the demonic and mesmerizing mournful blood splatters, as well as the unshakable fear in the eyes of the guards.... Everything about it was so beautiful, mesmerizing, and it made one can't help but want to try again!
The thrill of controlling the life and death of others and harvesting life easily was simply stronger and more ethereal than the stimulation brought by drugs, addictive and uncontrollable!
Licking his somewhat dry lips, kevin resisted his urge to lick off the beads of blood that kept sliding down and dripping like pearls on top of the short sword, an impulse that made him instinctively disgusted, and turned his gaze to Alice's side.
The moment KEVIN got his hands on him, Ellis and Matthew also stormed up at the same time, ringing out a couple of slight crunching sounds in quick succession in less than two seconds!
The necks of the remaining four guards had been snapped by all of them!
Originally, Matthew had wanted to come with Ellis one by two, who knew that Ellis, whose physical quality had already reached several times that of a normal person, had already cleanly snapped the necks of the remaining three at the same time that Matthew had finished off one person!
"Good job."
KEVIN never mentioned his near miss earlier, not that he wanted to hide anything, but he didn't feel the need to, the short sword that had already seen human blood would never hesitate for a millionth of a second the next time he swung it!
"Let's go over."
With a wave of his hand, kevin's torso suddenly lowered to meet a few bright lights slowly coming from his right, the bodies of the five guards, laid out just where they had been attacked and killed!
Ten minutes was too short for them to have time to clean up the bodies, and they had to grab the other patrols and finish them off before they found the bodies!
And, also, to compress the distance between them and these bodies as much as possible! If the bodies are too far apart, it will greatly increase the likelihood of detection!
Finally, the three kevin's ambushed themselves fifty meters from the bodies of the first wave of patrolling guards!
This distance, for a dark sentry with night-vision goggles, might be able to spot those corpses, but it was absolutely safe for the lax bright sentries whose light would only shine up to ten meters in front of them at most!
The hidden sentries were still left to kevin to deal with, and he ambushed them, again about ten meters away from the two Ellis!
When the four bright sentries from the front walked past from less than five meters away, kevin, who was crouching behind the grass, could hardly resist pouncing out and slitting their throats one by one to watch the scene when that delicate and fascinating flower of blood blossomed.
"Huh?"
The fourth guard at the end of the walk suddenly stopped in his tracks and suspiciously swept his flashlight around, trying to spot something.
"What's wrong?"
The movement behind him was naturally noticed by his teammates, and the three who were walking in front stopped at once.
"I just suddenly felt something staring at me ..."
The guard whispered.
"Don't be ridiculous, since the spread of those damn viruses, this area doesn't even have insect song anymore, it's normal for the atmosphere to be weird, weren't you startled by a mouse just now?"
The other guard spoke, unimpressed, and kevin keenly heard a hint of displeasure in his tone.
Obviously, as nervous as the enemy is, finally popping out a mouse with the most survivability and the least guts, anyone would feel disgraced, right?
Especially, there are a few of their own to accompany this guy two ...
"Okay, okay, let's go!"
At the urging of one of the guards, the four guards formed a line and slowly walked away.
The tense muscles of kevin finally sighed in relief, and this one little interlude snapped him out of his murderous frenzy!
"A true assassin is never a bloodthirsty butcher; killing is just a means to accomplish a task, not a perverted pleasure!"
kevin was alerted in his mind, his slightly reddened eyes gradually regaining their composure!
However, in the depths of the pupils, that little bit of secretive fishy redness settled down, so thick that it couldn't be melted away!
As the last of the shadowy guards passed by the grass where kevin was hiding, kevin moved slowly, hiding himself amongst the blind spots of his visual blindness, approaching quickly, yet silently!
That hidden in the darkness of the dark sentry suddenly felt his helmet side seems to have some strange, subconsciously inclined his head, but suddenly felt his chin was a strong force steadily upward support, will be fragile throat, directly exposed in the air!
Too late to have any reaction, the short sword that had long been poised for firing was gripped by kevin squarely in his hand, the blade wiped against the skin that had already been irritated by the morose coldness of the breath with a bit of goosebumps!
