“What’s that?” Franklin walked over to the window and leaned out curiously, but nothing was amiss.
A slender figure stood on the roof. As the wind blew, the person squinted.
Three drones were flying towards the tower in a triangle formation. One of them paused, and a launch

“Damn it!” The person on the roof growled as a small missile whizzed from the drone.
With a humming sound, a beam of silver light sliced towards the missile.
Bang! The missile was sliced in half before it could detonate.
Back in the room, Franklin furrowed his brows. “Suzie, did you hear a noise just now?”
“A noise?” She shook her head. “You must be hallucinating.”
He tilted his head to the side and listened for a moment. “I must have heard wrongly. The wind is strong

anything involving the outer districts will be your responsibility.” Willow said as they walked away from

Thud! A featherless iron arrow was embedded in the bricks on the ground where Willow was standing

“Kill them!” With a yell, the pedestrians around the hotel rushed towards them with knives in hand.
Franklin smiled. “I went to ask Rich to help us out tomorrow, but he came just now in the afternoon. I
