Salute To The General

Chapter 2408



Other than accidentally stepping on a fallen branch in the backyard earlier on, the intruder did not make any noise at all, behaving just like a quiet nocturnal creature, who was an expert in moving around in the dark.

Just when Nathan realized that the intruder was someone extremely powerful, he noticed something strange about the wind blowing out of the air- conditioner in the room.

There seemed to be an unusual scent in the air.

Nathan's expression changed immediately as he held his breath.

Not only was the intruder highly formidable, but he was also very scheming. He had even thought of making use of the air-conditioner circulation system to sedate everyone in the house.

After inhaling a small amount of the spiked air, Nathan had identified the substance as one that was used to knock someone out but was not lethal. As such, he did not react immediately but continued lying on the bed quietly, waiting for the intruder to show up.

A few minutes later, the leaves of the tree outside the window rustled before a figure flashed past. Just like a phantom, someone entered the room through the window and landed on the floor lightly.

Kneeling on one knee, the intruder fixed his gaze intently on Nathan, who was on the bed, and stayed completely still.

Meanwhile, with the help of the moonlight, Nathan had managed to get a clear look at the intruder's face when he flitted through the window earlier
