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
Although Adam said that he likes to be free, it was true, but that was not the main reason. He only became a mercenary just to complete his talent achievement task.If not for that, he wouldn’t even bother becoming a mercenary when his net worth was already in the hundred billion and even in the trillion if his cryptocurrencies and stocks were included.Adam was the second major shareholder of Zeria, but that doesn’t mean he wasn’t a shareholder in other top conglomerates. He had already obtained some shares in other top conglomerates such as Orange, Saudi Armaco, Arpabet Inc., and even Savannah.But of course, his shares were not as exaggerated as in Zeria since he was only a minor shareholder in those top conglomerates with at least 5% shares. Although, the accumulative net worth of those shares was enough to make Adam a trillionaire even if his cryptocurrencies weren’t included.And since he was already that wealthy, why would he risk his life to become a mercenary and earn mere mi
“Your name is Adam Spencer, is it?”“Yes, Father.”Adam replied politely to William while drinking a cup of coffee afterward.Both Adam, William, and Amelia were currently having a private conversation inside one of the guest rooms in the Savannah Branch Building.Two sides were sitting on two couches with a table in between. On the right side was William while on the left side were Adam and Amelia. On the table were three cups of coffee.Adam at this time had already taken off both of his two snipers but still had equipped his two pistols as well as his bulletproof vest and jacket filled with ammo and grenades.William and Amelia didn’t mind Adam’s weapons on his body since they knew that Adam wouldn’t kill them using them. And they were well aware that the assassins of Serpent Hand hadn’t given up yet so it was better if Adam was equipped with weapons so he could protect the two of them.The bodyguard team was already cleaning up the aftermath of the battle while the tech team was r
