Chapter 44 I Am Also A Monster

"Jane Wallace." Heine's voice pressed against the air like a dark tide. Xiao felt caught between two storms about to collide.

"He is the only tech soldier. We both have need of such support." Jane then chuckled as his finger slid around Xiao's neck. "Maybe I should just strangle him, then it will be fair. Up to you."

Mark and Liv immediately pulled their blades from their back and advanced on Jane. The atmosphere was now fraught with tension.

Xiao swallowed against the force of Jane's fingers . This maniac was not joking. Ah, he is just a rookie tech. No need to be so serious.

Sharon clearly had no intentions of stopping Jane, in front of them was a completely opposite reaction from Mark and Liv, who are readied for battle.

Heine was silent, Xiao could sense the malice coating his eyes, his steel gaze seemed as though it could cross the space between then and break Jane to pieces.

God! Aren't they in the middle of an extremely important task as the moment? They don't even know if they will leave this base alive. Xiao felt that he would only be a burden to whoever he followed. Ditching him would improve the probability of success.

Xiao's terminal display indicated that several Surge killers are heading in their direction.

"Liv, Mark, let's go."

Heine suddenly turned around and headed down the opposite channel with his team.

Xiao Yan stood stunned, he wasn't sure why, maybe it was because he gave in so easily. Heine didn't seem like the type to concede ground to anyone.

Jane released Xiao and squeezed his cheek, "How was that, are you angry?

.Xiao looked at him and frowned. The madman smiled as if nothing had just happened. But it wasn't that he was angry, he didn't have the level of insanity needed to be angry at a maniac.

"Let's go, Sharon." Xiao Yan didn't waste any time appeasing Jane's nonsense. He said nothing and continued down the passage.

At this time Mark, who continued on with Heine, spoke in hushed indignation. "Why did you just hand the rookie over to Wallace? That guy won't protect him. He just wants to mess with us.

In Marks heart, since Xiao first flight when they rescued him and he followed them on their missions, Xiao Yan was their team's tech. No matter what.

Heine said nothing, but Liv murmured to Mark, "If the boss were to fight with that maniac, do you really think he was joking about breaking Xiao's neck?"

Mark fell silent.

"Anyway ... if Jane Wallace had done anything I would take the crazy bastard's head off."

Liv looked worriedly at Heine's back. She could feel the air thicken around him, spreading all through the channel and wrapping around her. She struggled to breathe through the atmosphere that radiated off of him. She couldn't understand how Mark was oblivious to it. She waited a bit and then said crisply,

"Mark don't you think you are a thousand years too young to take Jane Wallace's head?"

Xiao Yan and Jane's troops silently crossed the channel and came to a circular opening. They raised their heads. Jane suddenly pulled Xiao behind him and several assassins dropped in from above. Sharon barely had time to react. Jane began to step back. Xiao Yan, who was behind him, was pressed against the wall. Jane continued to push backward and Xiao's spine is flush with the metal. His chest is smashed against Jane's back and he is so tightly pressed between the two surfaces, he can barely breathe. He tried to push against Jane's shoulders.
