The Deadly Assassin Robin (Tristan Storm) novel Chapter 596

Chapter 596 Wisdom Could Kill 

An eerie silence filled the free–fighting arena at Wolfsbane Summit. 

The soldiers present were all stunned and completely confused. 

What is Colonel Cross doing? 

She looked like she was running away–was she trying to deceive her rival? 

Or had Gavin’s overwhelming presence intimidated her? 

The War Wolf’s soldiers were even more puzzled, their minds clouded with questions. 

The hearts of the 60 elite special forces soldiers hung in suspense. 

Talia’s behavior suggested she might be running away because she couldn’t fight Gavin head–on. 

Gavin had never faced an opponent like her since joining the free–fighting competition. 

What kind of move is this? 

Is she just playing around by herself? 

Talia kept running, her pace unrelenting.

When she heard Gavin’s roar, she stopped, hands on her hips, and stood facing him. “How I fight is my business. If you’re so capable, come fight me! What’s all the yelling if you can’t even hit me?” 

Gavin almost choked on his own breath. 

Talia was right! 

But d*mn, it was getting under his skin! 

The younger generation these days had no respect for combat honor! 

Gavin’s frustration bubbled up with no place to release it. He decided he was going to teach this rookie a lesson! 

With a roar, he charged at Talia. 

As Gavin rushed toward her, Talia immediately turned and ran. 

In an instant, everyone saw the once–feared war hero, Gavin, frantically chasing Talia as she zigzagged across the ring! 

The thousand or so soldiers in the stands watched this bizarre scene in stunned silence. 

Several times, Talia nearly got hit by Gavin’s punch. 

Yet Gavin couldn’t land a single blow, only grazing past her!

It was incredible. 

Finally, Gavin ran out of steam. He stopped in the middle of the ring and growled, “Are you going to fight or not? How long do you plan to continue running like this?” 

Talia stopped, facing him with a sneer. “General Brooks, how I fight is my business. If you can’t beat me, you can surrender now!” 

Exasperated, Gavin shouted, “Then stop running and fight me! If I can’t even land a blow on you, what’s the point of continuing this fight?!” 

Talia snorted and rebuked, “Hmph! Now you’re admitting that you can’t defeat me! Let me tell you, this is my strategy! Strategy, do you understand? 

“Didn’t you learn in your military theory classes that when the enemy is stronger and you’re weaker, you can use tactics like retreating when they advance, disturbing them when they pause, attacking when they tire, and pursuing when they retreat? It’s guerrilla warfare! 

“Until you’ve worn your opponent down, making them too weak to continue fighting! 

“This is the most important part of the entire competition! 

“Don’t you get it? How can you win if you don’t even understand this? 

“In this world, strength alone doesn’t make someone truly powerful! 

“The weak can be unbeatable with intelligence and wisdom! 

“Our army has risen from nothing, from weakness to strength! 

“Only with enough wisdom can you defeat those who seem invincible but without substance!” 

Gavin was stunned by Talia’s logic. 

Did she actually apply guerrilla warfare tactics to this? 

Suddenly, a wave of enthusiastic applause erupted. 

At that moment, Colonel Talia Cross, who represented War Wolf, had completely taken control of the rhythm of the entire match. 

With her sharp mind, she had won the support and admiration of every soldier in the arena. 

By now, it was clear–this final challenge match had turned into Talia’s show, and her, popularity was on 

the rise. 

Before Gavin could react, Talia leaped into the air and delivered a powerful kick. 

The kick landed squarely on Gavin’s shoulder. 

Had it not been for Gavin’s impressive combat skills, that kick might have ended the fight. 

Stumbling back a few steps, Gavin broke into sweat.

Looking down at the arena floor, he realized that if he took even one more step back, he would fall right off the edge. 

“You! You little brat! How dare you use such a dirty trick to ambush me?” Gavin growled. 

Talia stood on the opposite side of the ring, hands on her hips, coldly laughing. “This is called a surprise attack! Or as they say, all is fair in war! 

“Looks like you need to retake your military theory class! 

“An officer who doesn’t understand tactics–how are you supposed to win a battle? 

“Mr. Robin told me this! 

“There’s no battle that can’t be won, only fools who don’t understand methods and tactics! 

“Underestimate your enemy strategically, but respect them tactically! 

“If you don’t understand strategy, you’ll never form a top–tier team and a top–tier fighter! 

“In this world, the truly powerful aren’t just strong physically; it’s the strength of the mind that matters!” 

Talia’s words once again triggered wild applause from the audience. 

Gavin nearly rolled his eyes in frustration. “You young people lack respect for the honor of battle! 

“Today, I’m going to teach you what real strength is!” 

Talia struck a fighting stance. She challenged, “And I’m going to show you how thoughts can destroy everything!” 

Gavin stood his ground, summoning all his strength. 

This time, he was determined to use his brute force to teach this rookie who had repeatedly challenged him a lesson. 

Talia stood still haughtily. Suddenly, she began to throw punches and kicks in the air, as though striking at Gavin from a distance. 

Her actions stunned the soldiers in the arena. 

Is she really going all out? 

She was a few feet away from Gavin, and all she was doing was throwing punches and kicks at nothing.
