The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection

Chapter 880

Impressed by Jesse's loyalty, Helena teased, "How many Scarlet Cardinals can you gather on such short notice?"

Jesse fell silent, realizing the impracticality of the suggestion. The 12-mile perimeter in the desert was too vast. It would require over 20 Scarlet Cardinals for complete coverage, and there were not even that many in all of Guneria.

Helene continued confidently, "Don't bother. No one who could overpower me exists yet, so let's not make a big deal of this. Neither Reagan nor that facility would have such a person."

She had completely dismissed Felix as just an ordinary person, thanks to his masterful use of the Nightshade Discipline technique borrowed from Darren. With Felix's skill level, using it perfectly masked his martial artist aura, making him seem utterly unremarkable.

As they approached the facility, Felix felt elated when he noticed all traces of the powerful guards had vanished. Elliott was telling the truth-the Westerio Order really would not dare come near, which meant the plan was close to succeeding.
