After dealing with the three lackeys in the kitchen, it only took Qin Hua a few more minutes to deal with the other two men on the floor.

With them taken care of, she had successfully dealt with 14 of the 20 men team. In fact, she was so close to gaining another level.

But Qin Hua did not rush anything and attack blindly.

As she was now prowling on the ground floor, she could see that all the guards here had higher levels ranging from 12 to 14. There was even one Level 15 muscular lackey.

She had a feeling that one or more of these thugs might have awakened abilities.

It made sense for the weaker lackeys to guard the upper floors and the stronger ones to guard the base. Not to mention, the one guy who definitely had the ability to bend metals and fortified the whole base.

Qin Hua waited and watched when finally one of the guards wandered into the bathrooms at the far end of the corridor.

[Got you! Woof!] She ducked under the shadow of the door and entered the bathroom as well but immediately she turned around with an unsightly look on her face.

[Aiyooo! My eyes. My eyes. This damned villain took my innocence!!!] Wearing a stiff face, she rolled around in the darkness, bile rising up her chest.

Meanwhile, the bulky muscular middle-aged man finished his business and whistled as he washed his hands in the washbasin, taking a few gulps of the water.

As he was gurgling the water and swallowing it, suddenly blood spurted from his throat, and a dog had pushed him onto the ground, jumping out of nowhere.

Qin Hua did not realize but her attacks were extra vicious as he mauled the guy without giving him a second of relief to even gather his thoughts. He tried to wrestle the dog away but she was glued on top of him, weighing him down like a mountain.

[You scoundrel! How dare you soil my eyes! Bad man! Bad uncle! Die. Die. Die.]

<Ding. 1 Level 10 Human killed>

<Ding. 500 Experience points have been rewarded>

Qin Hua panted, stepping away from the corpse only after hearing the notification which popped up. She didn't know if this particular person was awakened or not. The fight was over too fast for the opponent to react.

She took a step back and looked at all the bloody mess around her. She considered hiding the body in her inventory space but then she would also have to clean up the blood on the floor, which seemed like a time waste.

So she didn't bother with either of those and quietly walked out, ducking back into the shadows.

As she observed the surroundings, trying to pick out her next victim, suddenly loud noises sounded and a group of three men walked forward, the one in the center doing some movements with his hands.

Immediately the big slab of metal split apart into two and a group of people walked in. There was a total of 5 beefy men, along with a couple of familiar faces.

"So that's how it is… See. What did I tell you? It is better to stick around with us." A tall and lean middle-aged man walked inside, smoking a piece of cigarette.

He had his one arm around Xu Meilin who was clearly not comfortable with him touching her casually. Alex, the fat leech of the group, and another small kid whom Qin Hua did not recognize also closely walked behind him.

[Was this the leader of this group?] Qin Hua pondered.

No matter how she looked at it, the man didn't seem capable at all. He acted very flashy and seemed to be only focused on inappropriately touching Xu Meilin.

So Qin Hua had difficulty in believing that someone like him was capable of accomplishing something like this. Her eyes then casually flitted over to the small kid as a thought popped up in her mind.

[No. Not possible.] Qin Hua shook her head. The kid only seemed like a middle schooler. How could he be capable of doing such heinous things?

But weirdly enough, except for the two of them, everyone else was buffed and stacked similar to the muscular lackeys guarding the apartment complex.

Hmmm… Qin Hua licked her lips and quietly moved through the darkness, positioning herself closer to the group and ready to jump in and attack at any instant.

Meanwhile, the group walked in, settling in the lounge area. The tall guy sat down, while everybody else was standing. The little kid as well sat down but he sat down on the floor.

"So what do you all think?" The leader chuckled, taking another puff of his cigarette. Before he could say anything else, one of the lackeys stepped forward and announced. "Boss Benan, we got a few more applicants."
