Salute To The General
Chapter 3415 I Will Avenge You

Nathan said coldly, "The other day when I was looking at the site for the cathedral, were you the invisible rats scurrying about in the dark spying on me?"

The expressions on Holmes and the others' faces subtly changed.

It was them, indeed.

They had been tailing Nathan recently.

But who would have thought that Nathan was going to discover them so quickly? They had clearly underestimated Nathan's abilities.

They were unaware that ever since Nathan discovered that he was being spied on the day before yesterday, he had ordered the Headquarters of the Chief Military Governor to select their best men to track these people down. Just as Nathan was leaving, the Headquarters of the Chief Military Governor sent a message to Colin, indicating that they'd found the people who had been secretly tailing Nathan.

The information about Holmes and others, including their current locations, had already been sent over.

At the same time, the Headquarters of the Chief Military Governor also announced that the special troops assigned to arrest Holmes were already on their way.

It was just that Nathan noticed that Holmes and his party were at the exact location that he had just left. Remembering that Hepburn was still there, Nathan instructed Colin to turn around and return the way they came. Nathan returned initially just to see if the Curia was indeed in collusion with Wolfric.

But what Nathan didn't expect was that upon his return, he found Hepburn had been maliciously harmed.

A wave of inexplicable anger surged within him.

Holmes looked at Nathan as if facing a formidable adversary, and his voice was deep and serious as he said, "Mr. Cross, I don't understand what you're saying. We are not from Eurasia, so I have diplomatic immunity. You have no right to interfere with my passage, nor can you subject me to the laws of your country. I've had a bit of a disagreement with Ms. Hepburn here. If you don't mind, I'd like to take her with me. We'll part ways here, all right?"

Nathan replied icily, "I'm sorry, but the concept of diplomatic immunity does not apply to foreign secret agents operating in our territory, Mr. Holmes."

When Holmes and his party came to Eurasia, they all used fake names and identities.

At this moment, when Holmes heard Nathan accurately state his real name, he realized that Nathan had thoroughly investigated him and knew that he was the head of the Ariarica's secret agents.

His expression turned dark as he subtly signaled at his subordinates with a glance.

Clearly, they were ready to take a desperate gamble.

However, instead of rushing to settle the score with them, Nathan quickly walked over to Hepburn, knelt, and asked with furrowed brows, "Are you

okay?" ne

Hepburn was on her last breath, yet as she gazed at Nathan, who was close at hand, and a contented smile graced her beautiful face.

She strained to lean toward Nathan, whispering in a voice only the two of them could hear, "I... I can't hold on much longer. They are from Ariarica, also probing into your background, Mr. Cross. They vaguely suspected that Thad uncovered some secret. They tried to force me into

submission, but I refused, choosing instead to take matters into my own hands..."

Upon hearing this, Nathan could not help but widen his eyes in shock.

A hint of sadness was added to his handsome face as he slowly asked, "Why did you have to do this?"

Hepburn struggled to say, "I'm almost at my limit, but I was able to see you before my passing... The heavens have been kind to me."

Nathan lowered his gaze, looking at the dagger embedded in Hepburn's chest.

A hint of bitterness welled up in his heart.

How much determination must she have had to choose suicide so resolutely?

For a moment, any resentment Nathan had toward Hepburn for testing him with the Tear of God had disappeared completely.

He said quietly, "Just wait a moment. I'll take care of these nuisances here first to avenge you."

Having said that, Nathan stood up, turned around, and charged at the group of men led by Holmes.

Holmes had long heard of Nathan's renowned reputation and was well aware of his impressive combat achievements.

Before coming here, he never thought about having a showdown with Nathan.

Now that he had to face Nathan as

an enemy, Holmes was a bit panicked. He shouted at his subordinates around him, saying "All of you, attack together! I refuse to believe that so many of us can't beat the two of them."
