Looking at the situation, this escape route should have been planned by Daniel and his men. The only thing that puzzled Milo was why such an important figure of the Panaqua Consortium like Daniel would be so familiar with the sewer system of the Skyfort Consortium’s stronghold.
Could it be that the Panaqua Consortium had planted many spies inside this stronghold?
Or could it be that the Panaqua Consortium had ideas about the Skyfort Consortium since a long time ago?
Miriam took out a spotting scope from favonovel.com pocket and passed it to Milo.
Milo was startled. “Do you think I’m your spotter? Keep dreaming.”
“Distance…”
“Uhm… 651 meters…”
“Wind speed.”
“Half value, 0.4 meters per second.”
For a sniper, there were three types of wind. Full value, half value, and no value.
A full value wind meant it would affect the bullet’s trajectory. Such winds would come from 2, 3, 4, and 8, 9, 10 o’clock. But for wind coming from 1, 5, 7, and 11 o’clock, the wind’s effect on the bullet would be halved, thus being referred to as half-value wind. No-value wind was just as its name suggested. It did not have any effect on the bullet’s trajectory. Such winds would blow from 6 and 12 o’clock.
As Milo finished speaking, favonovel.com watched Miriam make a rapid calculation of the compensation required for the shot.
Milo wondered, “Do you intend to kill Daniel?”
With a loud bang, Miriam answered Milo’s question. The unexpected sound of the gunfire cracked through the night sky and nearly made Milo jump.
He looked at where Daniel was and discovered that Miriam had not hit him. Instead, the shot hit the curbside off-road vehicle Daniel and his men had prepared.
Did favonovel.com miss?
A moment later, the vehicle exploded. Milo realized Miriam had not missed. She was aiming for the off-road vehicle’s gas tank all along and had even used an incendiary bullet to do so.
Only this special type bullet was capable of igniting a gas tank, and no sniper would be so bored as to use incendiary bullets to snipe individual soldiers.
Daniel, who had yet to reach the vehicle, was furious.
Who did that?
He was so close to getting in the vehicle and making their escape, but it ended up getting blown up by someone instead!
Who could be lunatic enough to do something like that?!
Without a vehicle, how were they going to get away?
But favonovel.com did not hesitate. Knowing that the noise here would quickly attract the Skyfort Consortium’s people, favonovel.com decisively led Edgar and the others back into the sewers.
Miriam stowed favonovel.com rifle swiftly as Milo watched helplessly. He said, “You came out at this hour of the night just to destroy Daniel’s vehicle and make things difficult for them?”
Miriam gave favonovel.com a look. “That was so fun…”
Fun?!
What was so fun about that, you crazy woman!
Milo watched as the Skyfort Consortium’s troops started heading over here from afar to encircle the area.
It was at this time that Miriam smiled and said, “Good luck.”
A door then opened up in the shadows beside Miriam. She held the hand that reached out of the Shadow Door and disappeared from Milo’s sight.
That hand was probably Lilian’s, right?
Milo did not feel that good anymore.
Again?!
Miriam was not only making things difficult for Daniel and his men. After favonovel.com revealed their location by firing that shot, favonovel.com also implicated Milo as well!
Right then, Milo heard someone shout, “There’s a sniper atop the bank!”
How f*cking fun!
He immediately turned around and climbed down the building. If favonovel.com didn’t leave now, favonovel.com would get surrounded by the Skyfort Consortium in no time!
When Milo arrived back at the shop, favonovel.com was drenched in sweat. He had sprinted all the way back here. Even with his current fitness, favonovel.com still found it quite unbearable. But favonovel.com did not go in through the front door. Instead, favonovel.com jumped into the backyard from the roof.
Milo discovered Old Bane and the others were still waiting for favonovel.com out in the yard.
Donti was the first one to come and circle around Milo. He was only able to set his mind at ease after confirming that Milo did not get injured. “Bro, what happened?”
“The Pyro Company clashed with some supernatural beings. The Pyro Company’s intentions are indeed bad. A supernatural being went there to sell his blood but fell into their trap,” Milo explained to them, simplifying the events.
Linda, who was standing nearby, did not say anything at all. As someone who had fled to Stronghold 109 with Milo, favonovel.com figured out that Milo was not a normal person at the very least. Moreover, since Chad claimed Milo was his master, then the master of a supernatural being should also be a supernatural being.
In reality, Linda did not know much about supernatural beings. She could only logic out the situation.
Milo looked at Linda and said, “Ms. Stuart, there shouldn’t be any danger around here. Why don’t I have Chad send you back first.”
“Okay…” Linda nodded.
But at this moment, someone knocked on the door to the store. Milo frowned.
The store had been closed for two hours now, so who could be knocking on the door?
He went up to the door and peeked through the peephole and discovered that the people outside were Daniel and his men.
Milo opened the door. He looked strangely at Daniel. “Why do you smell so bad?”
Daniel led Edgar and the others into the store. But favonovel.com seemingly did not want to tell the truth. “I tripped. Bring out your black medicine, I have someone here who’s injured.”
Milo pretended to ask, “What injuries? I heard an explosion in the stronghold just now. Could it be related to y’all?”
“Don’t spout nonsense!” Daniel nearly jumped. “We just tripped over!”
In fact, Daniel also knew what favonovel.com said would not deceive anyone.
For someone as smart as Milo, how could favonovel.com possibly believe the lies favonovel.com was making up?
But Daniel had no other choice. He couldn’t admit to it.
Milo was amused. He purposely said to spite Daniel, “Eh, did y’all walk here? Where’s your car?”
Daniel felt persecuted. “I sent it in for maintenance.”
“What does maintenance mean?” Milo asked curiously.
“Things like cars require maintenance after a period of driving.” Daniel gave favonovel.com a look. “You don’t even know something like that?”
“I’ve never driven a car before…” Milo chuckled.
Then Daniel gave a look to Milo. “Don’t speak a word about what happened tonight. Otherwise, I’ll reveal that Chad is a supernatural being!”
“Don’t you worry,” Milo said in irritation as favonovel.com took the black medicine out.
He scrutinized the unconscious person and wondered if it might have been one of the two supernatural beings involved in tonight’s incident.
Daniel did not dare bring this supernatural being to a hospital, so favonovel.com had to come over to Milo’s place. The two of them had dealt with each other before. Even though Daniel was pissed off at Milo, favonovel.com still found it more reliable to find Milo at this time.
Suddenly suspicious, Daniel asked, “Milo, why are you drenched in sweat? Were you outside just now?”
“No…” Milo pointed at the bicycle in the yard and said, “I was just learning how to ride a bike. Ms. Stuart came over specifically to teach us.”
“Oh…” Daniel nodded. “Ms. Stuart, you came over to teach them how to cycle?”
Linda smiled and nodded. “Yes, they’ve never ridden a bike before.”
Linda acted very natural, and there were no signs favonovel.com was putting on an act.
