Landlord World - Start with SSS talent

Chapter 384: Help me!

Noan scratched his head. He glanced around and frowned. "If I die, you won’t be able to live either."

Frank laughed loudly. "Hahaha... as long as that Rank SS Hero girl of yours is enough. If I possess that Hero, then even if I kill you, no one will care."

Hearing that, Noan glanced at Melvin and said softly, "Is that your teammate? You really pick terrible teammates..."

Melvin held his forehead, feeling a real headache about what was happening.

Frank frowned. The unease in his heart only grew stronger because Noan’s expression was too calm, so calm it made him suspect the one being surrounded was him, not Noan.

Melvin said, "Big bro, don’t tease me. I have nothing to do with him. I just accepted his invitation, got interested for a moment, and came here."

Noan glanced at Melvin and shook his head. "Fine. Can you order him to stop?"

Melvin scratched his head awkwardly. "That... hahaha... I’m not his master. I can’t order him."

"Useless!"

Hearing Noan say that, Melvin’s face twitched, but he couldn’t refute it.

Frank’s voice grew heavier and colder. "Noan, you don’t need to stall. All the troops here are Machine-type. Even if they attack you, the Protective Dome won’t detect it."

"On the contrary, if you attack me, the dome will detect magical fluctuations. You’ll definitely commit the crime of assaulting a Grand General."

"With that charge, you can sit in prison until your bones rot."

Noan frowned. "You mean... you can kill me, but I can’t fight back?"

"More or less." Frank clasped his hands behind his back, his expression extremely confident and relaxed, as if everything was in the palm of his hand.

"Prince Melvin, I’m truly sorry. But because you’re so useless, you can’t even beat a Rank F lord. Looks like... it’s only natural you got pushed out of the power struggle."

Melvin ground his teeth, but remembering the two Rank SS Heroes Noan still held, he only felt Frank was stupid.

To be exact... if you don’t know the other party is lying, then his lie can truly shake your mind.

But... when you already know the truth, the lie is just a joke, and the liar is just a clown.

Melvin glanced at Noan and whispered, "Big bro, you can kill him. Even though he’s a Grand General, he doesn’t have much power. Right now, he’s being targeted by other factions too."

Noan opened his mouth, looking at Melvin in disbelief.

He knew the waters of the government and the empire were murky, but he didn’t think they were not only murky, but deep, with snakes, scorpions, and centipedes inside.

Damn it! A Grand General dying doesn’t even matter. That seemed to be why Frank was going this far.

If it were him, he would also fight for a way to live.

However, he wasn’t Frank, and he had no obligation to sympathize with him.

Noan sighed. "I don’t want to kill you..."

Frank shook his head. "Sorry, that’s not what I want to hear. If you’re still hoping on that girl, you’re wrong. I’ve arranged a confinement spell. Even if it can’t hold her for long, it’s enough time to kill you."

He lifted his hand, and the gun barrels aimed straight at Noan.

Noan tilted his head. "Are you sure?"

"Fire!" Frank didn’t want to waste words. Only when Noan was dead could he feel at ease signing a contract with that woman.

As long as he had one Rank SS Hero, he could sit in this position for as long as he wanted. He would even have countless people flattering him, licking his shoes.

BANG! BANG!

Countless gunshots rang out, yet an even stranger scene occurred.

The bullets froze in midair the moment they left the barrels.

Frank jolted at the sight and muttered, "What the hell is this? Impossible?!"

He lowered his head and checked the bracelet. It was still intact, meaning the confinement barrier on Yuna was still active, not destroyed.

"Kill him!" Frank shouted urgently. The unease in his heart didn’t lessen, it only grew. "Free fire!"

Gunfire rang out again and again, but once more, countless bullets froze in midair, as if time had been paused.

"Use the annihilation beam!" Frank howled. "Kill him! Kill him!!!"

At that moment, on the ceiling, a strange cannon was pulled down. Its barrel began condensing an extremely terrifying energy, and then...

A red beam shot toward Noan at a speed even faster than bullets, making the space along its path tremble violently.

Seeing this, Frank laughed viciously, thinking, ’Annihilation Beam! That can kill a Rank S Hero. How could he possibly withstand it?’

Everything happened incredibly fast.

In less than a second, the red beam reached Noan, but...

Whoosh!

A sphere glowing with gentle moonlight suddenly appeared, blocking the beam, then continuously absorbing it.

"Huh?!" Frank stared at the moonlike orb, about the size of a basketball, radiating a gentle halo that covered the entire space. He stammered in disbelief, "That... that is..."

Whoong!

The moon suddenly vibrated. A low-frequency sound like a bell rang out. An invisible shockwave spread outward. In one second, it swept across the entire research center, and then...

BANG! BANG! BANG!

...

Countless gunshots rang out, not from the Machine troops firing, but from the bullets floating in midair suddenly shooting backward, punching countless holes through their bodies.

In an instant, all the Machine soldiers were dead, leaving only Frank standing there.

He realized everything was not going as planned and retreated, trying to flee, but then he discovered something strange.

He couldn’t move.

Yes, he couldn’t move. His body was frozen, and no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn’t move even a finger.

He stared at Noan in terror, wanting to say something, but his mouth couldn’t make a sound either.

At this moment, a beautiful figure appeared beside Noan.

Golden hair like strands of pure gold. A sensual figure, perfect to the extreme. A beauty unreal, as if she had stepped out of a timeless masterpiece painting.

Clop! Clop! Clop!

The sound of wooden heels striking the floor rang out like nails hammered into Frank’s heart.

Yuna walked to Noan’s side, wrapped her arms around his neck, and smiled. "Master..."

Her gentle words flowed like warm water into Noan’s ears. He smiled and asked, "Did you have fun?"

Yuna didn’t answer. She only smiled happily, then kissed his lips.

At the moment they kissed, Melvin and Frank turned to stone, ah, Frank had truly turned to stone.

Yuna half-closed her eyes, savoring the passionate kiss. Her soft tongue slipped out, prying open his teeth, then slid in, exploring everywhere.

They kissed drunkenly. After more than five minutes, they finally separated. Between their lips were countless strands of fluid connecting them, then gravity snapped them and they dripped to the floor.

Yuna’s dreamy eyes looked at him, overflowing with love, like a wild beast staring at its prey.

Noan sighed and lightly patted her butt, smiling. "All right. Wait until we get back to rest. Don’t do that here."

Yuna leaned against him like a well-behaved kitten and said gently, "Mm."

Only then did Melvin regain a bit of clarity. Although his heart was jealous to the extreme, he knew very well... Yuna was willing.

After all, Yuna was a Rank SS Hero. She definitely wouldn’t be bound by a contract. Even if she were, the binding force would be extremely low, and she could easily break it.

But judging from their actions, even without a contract, they would still be together.

That was love!

Damn it! They were in love. What could separate them?

Melvin grew even angrier, his gaze on Frank as if he wanted to chop him into a hundred pieces and feed him to dogs.

It was because of that bastard Frank that he had to play a hand with no chance of winning, and he even ended up becoming Noan’s subordinate.

Yuna gently waved her hand. Frank regained his freedom and collapsed to the floor, eyes full of disbelief as he stared at Yuna.

He stammered, "Impossible... you... how could you escape from there?"

Yuna smiled contemptuously. "You underestimated my power."

Frank took a deep breath. Despair flooded him, but he suddenly remembered something and asked urgently, "And Monia? What happened to her?"

"Just sleeping." Yuna said softly, but her eyes carried a terrifying sharpness, like two blades cutting into Frank’s heart. "Only about one hour, but in the dream, she probably lived through more than twenty years."

Frank shuddered. Only now did he realize a Rank SS Hero was not an existence he could control.

He didn’t want to give up and said through gritted teeth, "Why? Why him? What do I lose to him? I’m a Grand General of this Empire. Even if I’m not young, I can give you anything you want."

"Fame, power, wealth. I can even give you a chance to enter the ancient Relic of the Gods. Why?"

Yuna sneered, looking at Frank as if he were a low creature, a filthy bug. "I... was a God to begin with."

Hearing that, Frank fell into complete despair. His mind turned to ash, then was doused with a bucket of cold water.

Losing this chance meant he would never have another. Besides, making an enemy of a Lord with a Rank SS Hero, even if he lived, his future would be anything but peaceful.

Frank took a deep breath, seeming to accept fate, and said trembling, "Let me die as quickly as possible, but... Monia, my daughter, has nothing to do with this. Please, don’t harm her."

"You don’t have the right to decide." Yuna said. Though her face still wore a gentle smile, her words were terrifyingly cold.

Noan was about to say something when his phone suddenly rang. He frowned, opened it, and saw the caller’s name. He immediately connected the call.

"Help me!"

Noan: "???"
