“Boss, all of these ten are death row inmates. That I assure you. So you can use them as your shooting targets without any remorse.”
A man in a black suit with black skin wearing dark shades led Adam Spencer to the backyard of a huge mansion.
In the backyard, there were ten men covered with a black sack over their faces tied up on a wooden pole. Several meters in front of those ten men was a table filled with different types of guns as well as boxes of ammo.
Furthermore, there were several men in black suits guarding the perimeter of the backyard as well as snipers stationed in the mountain a few kilometers away from the mansion to ensure Adam Spencer’s safety.
All of Adam Spencer’s bodyguards were either retired armies or were the best members of bodyguard agencies. They were the cream of the crop and hiring them was too expensive but for Adam who was a billionaire, he could easily pay these bunch of men to die for him with just his money alone.
Since their loyalty was already ensured by Satania, Adam didn’t doubt the loyalty of his subordinate since Satania had already done a background check as well as a personality and loyalty test for all of his subordinates.
When Adam walked into the backyard, one of the men in a black suit handed a pistol to him. “Boss, I have already loaded this gun and turned off the safety pin. You can use it to shoot those damn criminals at your discretion.”
Receiving the pistol from one of his subordinates, Adam pointed his pistol toward one of the ten criminals who were tied to a wooden pole.
Although those criminals had a black sack over their faces, they could still hear the words of Adam’s bodyguards so they knew that their life was coming to an end. The black sack only restricted their vision but not their hearing.
Adam’s mansion was located only several kilometers away from his previous house but it was in a deserted location. In other words, his mansion was on private property without any neighbors aside from himself.
Although that may a problem to most people, that was only a boon for Adam since his only neighbors were his bodyguards. So if someone unauthorized were to enter his private property, he would be alerted of it.
And since there were only his bodyguards and him in his mansion as well as his maids and butler, even if he killed the ten criminals or fired his gun, the sound of the gunshot wouldn’t alert the police. And even if it did, those ten criminals were already legally acquired by Adam through various means including but not limited to bribery.
With Adam’s status as a centibillionaire, even the government and president had to respect him since he was one of the biggest taxpayers in the US, let alone a mere policeman.
Of course, Adam didn’t care much about that since his attention was focused on killing the ten criminals in order to unlock his Ultimate Sharpshooter talent.
As much as he wanted to save Amelia Wallenstein, he was too weak to go up against the assassins from Serpent Hand.
His Ultimate talents weren’t meant for a physical battle. So his goal was to obtain the Ultimate Sharpshooter talent first and then the Ultimate Bodyguard talent afterward.
With those two Ultimate talents, he would finally have Ultimate talents suited for combat.
After Adam familiarized himself with his pistol, he pointed it at one of the criminals and placed his index finger on the trigger.
-Bang!
Without waiting for anyone’s orders and such, Adam pulled the trigger of the pistol and the bullet flew out, heading toward the criminal. But as a rookie gunman, the bullet that Adam had shot missed the criminal which made him frown.
It took him some time to get used to the recoil of the pistol as well as aiming his gun correctly. So after he was prepared, he pulled the trigger again and this time, although the bullet didn’t kill the criminal in a headshot, it still managed to penetrate through the criminal’s neck, killing him.
“One down, nine more to go.”
Adam commented as he aimed the pistol at another criminal.
Adam observed how the criminals struggled while being tied up but their efforts were rendered futile. After all, his bodyguards were professionals. Since the criminals were tied up by his bodyguards, it was impossible for them to break free without any tools in hand.
-Bang! -Bang! -Bang!
Several gunshots reverberated in the backyard of Adam’s mansion. The scent of rusted iron wafted but even after killing those criminals, Adam didn’t feel sick or the need to vomit.
As someone who was already beaten by society, Adam no longer cared about something that didn’t concern him such as the lives of other people.
-Ding!
[Talent achievement task completed successfully!]
[Talent: Ultimate Sharpshooter]
[Description: One shot, one kill! With various shooting techniques and gun modifications, you are a master sharpshooter. Whether it’s to shoot bullets in a curved path or intercept an enemy bullet with another bullet, they are nothing but child’s play to you!]
[Characteristic: Bullet Time]
After Adam received the Ultimate Sharpshooter talent, he was astonished to notice that his vision became blurry. But after remembering that he wore glasses, he took them off and was shocked to find out that his eyesight was no longer faulty!
In fact, it was drastically improved to the point that he could see farther than most humans!
What a joke! If the Ultimate Sharpshooter had faulty eyesight, then he might as well retire early!
So Adam discovered that his Ultimate Sharpshooter talent had not only cured his defective eyesight but also improved his vision!
To test his shooting skills, Adam pointed his pistol at a tree but before he pulled the trigger, he shook his pistol rapidly. When the bullet left the muzzle, its trajectory looked normal as it flew toward the tree.
But just a meter away from the tree, it immediately changed course and defied the laws of physics as it avoid the tree and shot the tree beside it!
In other words, Adam’s bullet changed trajectory in mid-air after it was released! It was a feat that defied the laws of physics!
“Damn, forget the Serpent Hand, even the number 1 assassin organization might not be able to pull this off!”
Not only was Adam shocked, but the rest of his bodyguards and the snipers near his mansion were shocked!Since they were professionals, they knew how difficult it was to achieve such a feat!“Boss, have you practiced shooting before? I thought this was your first time doing this?”Out of curiosity and astonishment, one of Adam’s bodyguards who had prepared the criminals and guns before asked Adam.“Nope, I haven’t. It is my first time but to think that I am a prodigy in shooting…”When Adam proclaimed himself as a prodigy in shooting, none of his bodyguards retorted since they also agreed with his statement.And Adam’s proclamation was even an understatement!Ultimate Talents were even above the talent of a prodigy! It was a talent that existed to surpass all experts in a certain field.With his Ultimate Sharpshooter talent, Adam immediately became the number 1 in gun shooting.“Okay, now that my shooting practice is over, please clean up all of these trashes.”Adam reminded his bodyg
Adam had already familiarized himself with all of the guns that he had modified and would use in the future. The only problem left was that he realized that although he was very proficient in long to mid-range battles, he was trash in close-range battles.The Ultimate Sharpshooter had only improved his eyesight as well as minor improvement in his physical capabilities but mostly his hands so that he could handle the recoil of guns.But his current physical strength wasn’t sufficient to fight against even the weakest mercenary in the dark web. Of course, he was confident that he could kill any of them as long as it was a gunfight since no one could escape his bullets.“Sigh, it would be a problem if someone managed to enter my range and fight me in close combat. I really need to finish my talent achievement task and obtain the Ultimate Bodyguard talent so that I can finally have an improvement in my physical attributes and close combat fighting skills.”Adam knew that in terms of close
While a man in a black suit announced that, Adam who was standing on the side of the room seemed to have attracted the attention of an infamous mercenary. “You runt, you should go back to drink your mother’s milk. You are still wet behind the ears to even attend this death battle. Did you really think that by equipping two snipers and many guns and ammo on your body, you would scare off veterans such as myself? Laughable!” Adam heard the ridicule and mocking that was directed towards him from a mercenary with a bald head and a scar on his right eye. On that baldy’s left eye was covered with an eyepatch which meant that his left eye was either removed or was blind and could no longer be used. And with that baldy’s tall stature and a bulky build, he looked very imposing. But Adam wasn’t intimidated by that baldy since Adam was confident in his skills as the Ultimate Sharpshooter. With a gun alone, even a weak teenager could kill the strongest martial artist in the world. Let alone Ad
When he noticed that all of the mercenaries pointed their guns toward him along with their bodies that reeked of killing intent, Adam sighed.‘Bullet Time!’When Adam activated bullet time, he felt his heart beating as if he had run multiple marathons at once! It was beating at a speed that overwhelmed Adam and it caused his body to increase in temperature every millisecond that passed.But, it wasn’t all for naught.Adam noticed that the world around him became slower. Although not that slow to the point that it was as if he was in stopped time, but slow enough to see that volleys of bullets were shot towards him.When the bullets reached a meter away from him, Adam didn’t dodge but unfastened his Beretta 92 from his bullet. With a Glock 17 in his right hand and a Beretta 92 in his left, Adam didn’t use both guns to shoot the bullets in front of him.After all, it was only a meter away from him. So he opted to use the body of his pistols to intercept bullets in front of him as he swa
Adam was completely oblivious that he had attracted Amelia’s attention. Although he didn’t hide his appearance, he still had hidden his true identity. He had used a code name in his mercenary profile. Of course, it was also impossible for someone to use his appearance to find out his identity since Satania didn’t exist for nothing. Satania would block all attempts of any identity checks on Adam. At least, identity and background checks regarding Adam would be blocked by Satania and only those that were allowed by Adam would not be blocked by Satania. So even if William Wallenstein had ordered his tech team to find information about Adam, they could only find his mercenary profile on the dark web. They could never use his appearance or any other means to find out Adam’s true identity. Of course, it was still impossible for Adam to truly hide his identity especially when someone in real life knew about him. So he couldn’t hide his identity if Amelia had found out about him in his sc
“I know that compared to those experienced assassins, a mere student like me can easily be fooled and tricked by them. But no matter how I console myself of my incompetence, it still is frustrating to be tricked by an assassin that I could easily kill with my guns.”When Adam gnashed his teeth and spoke furiously, he took out a grenade from his jacket. Pulling the pin on the grenade, Adam immediately hang the grenade on the doorknob of the locked door.Stepping back to the edge of the room, Adam took cover behind a bookshelf to shield himself from the impact caused by a grenade’s explosion. After taking cover, only several seconds had passed and Adam immediately heard a loud bang behind him.After waiting for a few seconds, Adam came out of his hiding spot and saw that door was completely obliterated with even the surrounding wall being pulverized. Cracks spread on the wall and even the explosion had caused the floor to be destroyed, revealing the first floor below it.Yes, currently,
“You, a poor man?! The chairman of a top conglomerate proclaims himself as poor?! Who the fuck do you think you are fooling?!”A man dressed in the bodyguard uniform of the Savannah Conglomerate wildly yelled in anger as he threw his knife like a dart toward William, but the knife purposely avoided a centimeter away from William’s face.But it was still enough to cause a minor slash wound on William’s cheek as blood trickled out from it. The sharp pain on his face made William know that the assassins from Serpent Hand were starting to lose their patience.Yes, the man dressed in the bodyguard uniform of the Savannah Conglomerate was not part of the bodyguard team of the Savannah Conglomerate but one of the assassins of Serpent Hand who had infiltrated the bodyguard team of the Savannah Conglomerate.And in the command room aka the 25th floor of the Savannah Branch Building, there were a total of three assassins of Serpent Hand. Joshua who was also an assassin of Serpent Hand was taske
“How did you come here? Weren’t you locked by Joshua in the second-floor guest room? Even if you had come out of it, the elevator had shut down and it would take a long time for you to ascend here.”Hearing William’s question, Adam knew that William and the rest of the people inside the command room were already informed by the assassins that the examiner was replaced by Joshua.But since Adam planned to keep Satania’s existence a secret until he was powerful enough to protect himself, he decided not to answer William’s question.“It’s a trade secret. You only need to know that I haven’t failed any commissions yet.”‘Because this is my first commission. So of course, I have yet to fail it.’Hearing Adam’s reliable words, William and Amelia didn’t mind if he didn’t tell them about it. After all, all mercenaries had their own secrets and they would overstep their boundaries if they forced Adam to tell them about it.Of course, they didn’t know that Adam’s words were him finding a loopho
