Chapter 456: Safe Room
Three of Benjamin’s men, however, weren’t so lucky. They had paid the price for the operation with their lives, taken down in the heat of battle. Their bodies were still scattered through the hallways.The survivors, including the four men of Darnell who had been working for Benjamin, gathered in the central room. They stood silently, waiting for Benjamin’s next orders. The four men who had switched sides stood with a calm demeanor, knowing their roles in this final move. They had seen it through, and now they were part of the new order.Benjamin scanned the group, his eyes falling on the three men who had survived the assault. They had done their jobs well, and their loyalty had proven invaluable.“Darnell is inside,” Benjamin said, his voice cold and direct.One of Darnell’s men spoke up. “He must surely be in the safe room, sir. Whenever things go south, he runs there. It’s his last line of defense.”Benjamin nodded, his mind already shifting into the next phase of the operation. H

Benjamin’s eyes flicked to the side, realizing the threat, but Cipherella didn’t give him a chance to hesitate. “Their position is at the left, just past the hallway intersection,” she continued. “Move fast. They’re about to fire.”Benjamin didn’t flinch, his movements as calm and deliberate as ever. He had been in situations like this before. But Cipherella’s words pushed him to act quicker. He shifted his stance, eyes scanning his surroundings more carefully as he moved forward, his gun raised and ready.Seconds later, just as Cipherella had predicted, the two men opened fire. Puff puff—the sound of suppressed shots echoed faintly in her ear, and she saw Benjamin’s body jerk slightly from the impact. One of the shots grazed his arm, but he didn’t falter. His sharp reflexes kicked in, and he fired back instantly, taking down one of the attackers.Cipherella exhaled sharply, her heart racing as she saw the second man scramble to reload. “Benjamin!” she shouted in his comms, but there

On the other side of the hall, another one of Elijah’s men heard the gunfire and immediately moved toward the pillar where his teammate had fallen. "Covering you!" he called out, pushing forward.But just as he rounded the corner, a sharp burst of gunfire erupted from behind a set of double doors. A loyalist of Darnell’s, hidden and waiting, opened fire. “Shit, we’ve got company!” he shouted as the first bullet struck the man in the leg, sending him crashing to the floor.“Dammit!” he grunted, trying to return fire, but before he could lift his weapon, another shot hit him square in the chest. Puff puff—the suppressed rounds were deadly silent, but the impact was violent. He fell to the ground, his body going limp, the blood pooling beneath him.Inside the comms, Elijah’s voice cut through the chaos. “Status? Report!”One of his men, moving through the hallway, responded with a quick, grim tone. “Two down. One hit in the shoulder, the other in the chest. They were taken out fast.”Eli
Chapter 453
The silence of the hallway was shattered when one of Darnell’s men, stationed near a hidden doorway, saw something that didn’t quite fit. Through the crack, he caught a glimpse of a shadow moving too swiftly, too silently. His eyes narrowed, scanning the figure. It wasn’t one of his own. It was a man in dark tactical gear, the kind of uniform worn by someone who didn’t belong.His pulse quickened. "Hey!" he shouted, his voice a mix of surprise and suspicion. "Who are you?"The figure turned, but before the man could react, the silent gunfire of Benjamin’s men erupted. A suppressed shot rang out, puff puff, and the guard fell, his eyes wide in shock, his body crumpling to the floor.But in his final moments, panic flooded his mind. With his dying breath, he managed to pull the trigger of his own rifle, sending a spray of bullets into the air, a cascade of sound that rang throughout the halls. The shots echoed, ricocheting off the marble floors, breaking the tense quiet.Inside the mans

The men she designated quickly shifted to the right, their movements quick and calculated as they reached the fountain, ready to take their positions.“Now,” Cipherella’s voice sliced through again, her focus never wavering, “two men at the back. There’s a small storage shed at the corner behind the estate. Position yourselves there and keep your weapons at the ready. They’re behind a small structure, but you’ve got clear line-of-sight to take them down as soon as they make a move.”As she finished issuing the final orders, Benjamin's eyes swept over the grounds, watching as the men took their places, spreading out to cover the three key points Cipherella had identified. Every man knew what to do. They were trained to execute this flawlessly.“All positions are set,” Cipherella said, her voice now low and sharp as she addressed the final step. “Everyone, wait for my signal. On my mark…”Benjamin's hand tightened on his rifle. He didn’t have to look at the men; he knew they were in pos
Chapter 451
Since there were silencers on the gun, the night air was broken only by the soft, almost imperceptible sound of suppressed gunfire—puff puff, like distant whispers in the dark. The first guard at the left flank dropped instantly, the quiet impact of the bullet barely audible as it pierced his chest. His body crumpled to the ground without a sound.The second guard, standing near the gates, barely had time to react before another suppressed shot rang out from the right. Puff puff—a clean hit, straight through his head. He collapsed, his body folding unnaturally as he hit the ground.The third guard, further back, turned toward the noise, his eyes wide in confusion. But before he could even process what was happening, the soft puff of the next shot found its mark. Puff puff—the bullet struck him in the neck, and he fell, clutching his throat for a brief moment before his body went limp, lifeless on the ground.Everything moved in a fluid, silent symphony—controlled, precise.
