Chapter 300 Master-level Assassin
Thankfully, William had considerable strength and heightened senses, far beyond that of an ordinary person. That's how he narrowly evaded the sneak attack with the small knife.
However, after failing with the knife, the assassin leaped towards William, wearing a mask depicting a bull's head, and dressed in a tight gray outfit that concealed his identity.
This assassin was incredibly fast, with the sound of air being torn apart around him.
"Die!" The assassin's movements were uncanny, and a fierce surge of superpower energy was released with each punch. This was clearly a master-level practitioner who could emit superpower energy externally.
This realization alarmed William greatly. To think that there was a master-level expert trying to kill him. How much money did this person spend to target his life?
Fortunately, William wasn't someone who was easily intimidated. Faced with a formidable enemy, he swung his fist with all his strength and charged at the assassin. It was a desperate moment, and William didn't care about preserving his strength anymore.
As the superpower energy surged in his wrist, a powerful force erupted from William's fist, directly colliding with the assassin's superpower energy-infused punch.
The collision of the two surges of superpower energy created a shockwave in the air, causing the stage to shake and leaving the audience astonished.
Both the assassin and William were pushed back several steps by the force of the shockwave.
Antony and Ralph finally reacted. The scene had unfolded in the blink of an eye, and most people hadn't even realized what happened. It was only because of William's heightened senses and his exceptional strength that he could instantly react and counterattack.
"Security!" Antony immediately shouted anxiously. If something happened to William right under his nose, he would likely have to pay the price too.
Ralph was even more frantic, sending his own bodyguards forward.
In the midst of their panic, the assassin was taken aback by the strength displayed by William.
"You actually achieved external emission of superpower energy..." Clearly, the assassin hadn't expected William, who seemed so young, to possess such terrifying strength. It was truly beyond his expectations.
"Surprised, aren't you? Do you want to try again?" At this point, William was however, already at the end of his strength. He said these words purely to intimidate the assassin.
He hadn't reached the level of external energy emission himself; he was just bluffing.
Because the energy was suddenly boosted several times with the Inch Punch method, it created the illusion of super energy release.
"Wow, impressive! I'll let you go for now, but I wonder if your fiancée has the same strength as you?" Seeing many security guards approaching, the assassin promptly jumped off the stage and disappeared into the crowd after a few leaps.
"What do you mean?" William took a few tentative steps forward, suddenly feeling a sense of danger. It seemed that the assassin was changing targets to Sophia. He immediately instructed Antony and Ralph.
"Go protect Sophia. The assassin is going after her. I'll change my clothes." After leaving these words behind, William quickly ran to the secret room. He was worried that the assassin would change direction and go for Sophia.
Antony didn't waste any time and quickly ordered someone to protect Sophia. He then brought a few strong bodyguards to follow William. Their top priority now was protecting William, afraid that the assassin would target him again.
He was almost scared to death by the scene just now. Thankfully, William's strength was formidable enough to fend off the assassin.
Feeling very anxious; William arrived at the secret room and immediately took off his mask, changed his clothes, and hurriedly went to find Sophia. At the same time, he pondered on the motive behind the actions of the grandmaster-level assassin. After failing to assassinate him, the assassin immediately went for Sophia.
It seemed that this assassin still targeted the alliance between the Brown family and the Smith family, but this time, they didn't know who sent them. Their methods were even more ruthless than the Graham family's. Directly attempting an assassination instead of a kidnapping.
Or perhaps it was still the Graham family's doing, perhaps they were furious because William destroyed the Graham family's influence on Long Island, and in response sent a grandmaster-level expert to assassinate him.
While rushing to get back to check on Sophia, many thoughts flashed through William's mind.
However, at the moment, William's body was weak, his face pale. He could feel that there wasn't much energy left in his body. If he were to encounter that assassin again, he wouldn't be able to withstand their attack like before.
"Sophia, please be safe!" William ran hastily, praying silently in his heart.
Meanwhile, Sophia and the others were surrounded by layers of security guards sent by Ralph and Antony, making it impossible for anyone to get close.
Yet Sophia and the others were completely clueless.
"What's going on? Why are there so many security guards surrounding us all of a sudden?" Kylie looked around, perplexed and a bit nervous.
"It seems like something happened! They seem to be here to protect us," Sophia said, observing the situation.
"Why are they only targeting us? What about everyone else?" Kylie noticed that Michelle and Julia were pushed out by the security guards, and she knew that this situation was aimed specifically at them.
"It could be that someone is trying to kidnap me again!" Having experienced several kidnappings before, Sophia immediately guessed the situation when she saw what was happening.
At that moment, Sophia suddenly remembered William. Every time she faced a kidnapping, William would always be the first to come and protect her. Sophia missed William especially right now. Without him, she didn't feel safe.
Meanwhile, William was rushing over. Just before he arrived, Ralph suddenly appeared, holding a bull head mask and a gray bodysuit.
"Sir, we sent people to chase after the assassin and found these items in a corner." Ralph handed the bull head mask and gray bodysuit to William.
Naturally, William recognized these two things. The assassin who had tried to kill him before was wearing this gray bodysuit and bull head mask.
"It seems like this assassin has changed disguises, just like me. At this moment, he is likely hidden among these corporate elites. Hurry and get them to sign the agreement to join WE ARE Chamber. Once it's signed, make sure they leave immediately," William ordered, thinking about how he couldn't let the attempted assassination ruin the event. Otherwise, his disguise today would be in vain.
"Understood, I will handle it right away!" After Ralph replied; he quickly went to find Antony to deal with the matters of joining WE ARE Chamber.
Meanwhile, William squeezed through the security guards and arrived next to Sophia. Seeing William finally showing up, Sophia breathed a sigh of relief.
"William, you finally came. It seems like someone is trying to kidnap me again."
"Perhaps it's not a kidnapping this time, but an assassination..." William said with a serious expression.
"Assassination?" Sophia and Kylie's faces turned pale, instantly frightened.
