Chapter 705 - "Ready To Hunt"

Since Ainsley wanted her people to pretend to not know anything, Marietta and Candea were quick to respond. Both of them looked at Ainsley with a serious look. 

"I think there are intruders, boss. But maybe there are only those four intruders that I just killed. My vines haven't detected any living beings after that case." 

Marietta was really skilful. Her acting skill was comparable to Ainsley's Oscar-worthy performance. 

Even Candea also tried to adjust. 

"Same here, boss. The people I blocked using the marble wall should be the four that Sister Marietta just killed. I don't sense any other intruders…" 

Hearing this, Paul and the others let out a sigh of relief. 

See? That must be a coincidence, indeed. There's no way the Sloan Family could see our location or sense our presence. 

As long as we are careful not to touch the vines, we will be alright! 

Alas, when Candea made the marble wall before, she was already sure that there was a group of intruders, and their number should be more than just four. 

Thus, she connected her ability to the connecting hall's entire marble floor. It means that when the intruders stepped onto the floor, she already knew their numbers and location. 

It's just that she didn't bother to tell the others because they're pretending not to know. She's also sure that Ainsley already knew the intruders' existence. 

If not, why would she ask them to be prepared for a battle early on? The boss must have a scan or detection-related ability! 

With the duo playing dumb, the rest of Ainsley's people in the hall also played dumb. 

They couldn't sense the intruders nor see them, but from Candea and Marietta's words, they believed that there should be more than four intruders. 

If so, they only had to stay vigilant and wait for the boss to issue a command. After all, they thought that Ainsley already sensed the intruders' presence and had even tracked their every movement. 

Even though she looked like she was busy looking at her tablet to monitor the surveillance camera's footage all over the mansion, in fact, she must be tracking the intruders' movement, right? 

Indeed. Ainsley was currently watching the live 3D map floating in front of her eyes. 

From what she saw, Paul's group mainly consisted of stealth-type ability users, some defence-type and offence-type ability users. 

The rest were support-type ability users. 

Ainsley couldn't determine which one was the group-stealth ability user or which one had an important role to play, but she could guess some people's role in the party. 

The one at the front should be defense-type ability users, the tankers. Those behind should be close combat ability users, and those at the back should be long-range combat ability users. 

As for the supporters...are they the ones surrounding Paul? Hummm…

Ainsley was a bit amused by what she saw through the 3D map. So far, Paul didn't make use of the group-stealth ability to assassinate her people. 

She could throw a wild guess that there must be a range limit to the group-stealth ability, and it didn't cover the entire Connecting Hall. 

If it covered the entire Connecting Hall, they wouldn't stay close together like that and would have gone to kill some of her people in silence. 

After all, they're currently invisible and have no presence or aura. Even the sounds of their footsteps, breathing, and heartbeat were gone. 

This is definitely a good thing. Ainsley didn't need to worry about her people getting assassinated. 

Of course, even if the group-stealth ability could cover the entire Connecting Hall, she could still protect her people thanks to the radar ability's 3D map display. 

Thinking again...her decision to evolve her keen hearing into sound-type radar ability plus upgrading the power was a good decision. 

While Ainsley patiently watched the intruders through the 3D map's display, Paul and the others were already close to the flag's location. 

The fifty people, excluding Paul, were currently divided into ten groups. 

Each group had five members consisting of two offence-type ability users; close and long-range, one defence-type, one support-type and one assassin-type. 

Each group moved around two meters from each other, creating a long line of people. 

Of course, they didn't dare to get too far from the group-stealth ability user who was currently right beside Paul, on his left side. 

On his right side were the group-telepathy ability user and his vice commander right in front of him. 

The vice commander seemed to be a tanker type, looking at his large build. In this case, Paul acted as the offensive long-range ability user. 

The other two, the group-stealth and telepathy ability users, were assassin-type and support-type, respectively. 

It seemed that the vice commander acted as a close combat-type ability user too. 

Seeing the group slowly surrounding the flag behind her, Ainsley curled the corner of her lips. 

Hum, hum. We should let these people touch the flag first before tackling all of them in one go. 

Ainsley was busy sending messages through her Airpods without the intruders hearing her. 

After all, she lowered her voice until it only sounded like a non-audible whisper akin to a mosquito's annoying buzz. 

None of Paul's people had enhanced hearing sense, so they didn't hear a thing. 

The group, who were still approaching a flag a few meters behind Ainsley, didn't know that the guards in the hall were already glancing their way. 

Yes, Ainsley told her people Paul group's rough location and now, Candea and Marietta were already prepared with their marble floor and vines hidden beneath the marble floor itself. 

Countless camouflage vines also slurred around the intruders, with some dangling from the ceiling yet looking transparent and hard to detect. 

The hunter is ready to hunt the prey!
