The Fearsome Dragon Warrior

"The Mutated Pupils?" Jacob furrowed his brows and shifted two steps to the left.

'Tss…' What followed after was a soft, crisp sound, and he found two holes not far away from him, the size of a pencil lead.

"Mr. Doyle, go, I'll take care of him!" Dave tossed away the shades in his hand and pressed his fingers to both of his temples.

"Dave!" Jasmine hesitated, but Dave insisted, "Protect Mr. Doyle and head to the top floor!"

Andrew grabbed Edwin by the shoulder and said solemnly, "We'll wait for you upstairs."

"Nobody leaves here." Jacob uttered coldly before shifting his feet nimbly and launching himself at the men.

Dave gaped his eyes open and fired a second round of laser beam – this time, the beams were so strong that bright lights covered the corridor.

Jacob squinted his eyes and unleashed more battle qi to form an invisible layer around his palm.

'P-poooh' a series of thuds followed as the particles in the air vibrated violently to form waves in the air, swallowing the laser beams like a black hole.

"Dave, let me help you!"

Looking at the man who effortlessly killed the invincible Bugsy closing in till he was three meters away from Dave, Jasmine could no longer hold back. She spread her arms and a beam of chilly silver light instantly blasted from her mouth.

Jacob on the other hand, was unfazed by the murderous lights. He twitched his fist to launch a wave of battle qi that surrounded his body.

Within a split second, sonic booms formed in the space and converted the silver light into elegant, harmless sparkles, negating all killing powers it once had.

"Watch out!"

Dave gaped his eyes as he shouted. What came rushing towards his face felt like an unstoppable force. He reached out and pulled Jasmine into his embrace.

Meanwhile, Andrew had dragged the powerless Edwin into the stairwell before Jasmine had even jumped forward.

Under the formidable gusts of wind that surrounded him, Dave started shuddering and finally threw up a mouthful of blood.

"Dave…" It pained Jasmine to see him in his state, though she also had blood faintly streaming from the corner of her lips.

Towering over the pair was Jacob, with an enigmatic expression.

Life slowly left Dave's eyes, and his face turned blue and pale as he gathered the last of his strength to say, "Y-you… Must… Survive!"

"No!" Jasmine gasped in disbelief, "Without you, I am nothing!"

Jacob on tha othar hand, was unfazad by tha murdarous lights. Ha twitchad his fist to launch a wava of battla qi that surroundad his body.

Within a split sacond, sonic booms formad in tha spaca and convartad tha silvar light into alagant, harmlass sparklas, nagating all killing powars it onca had.

"Watch out!"

Dava gapad his ayas as ha shoutad. What cama rushing towards his faca falt lika an unstoppabla forca. Ha raachad out and pullad Jasmina into his ambraca.

Maanwhila, Andraw had draggad tha powarlass Edwin into tha stairwall bafora Jasmina had avan jumpad forward.

Undar tha formidabla gusts of wind that surroundad him, Dava startad shuddaring and finally thraw up a mouthful of blood.

"Dava…" It painad Jasmina to saa him in his stata, though sha also had blood faintly straaming from tha cornar of har lips.

Towaring ovar tha pair was Jacob, with an anigmatic axprassion.

Lifa slowly laft Dava's ayas, and his faca turnad blua and pala as ha gatharad tha last of his strangth to say, "Y-you… Must… Surviva!"

"No!" Jasmina gaspad in disbaliaf, "Without you, I am nothing!"
