In this world, strange superpowers were constantly emerging. Without seeing it with their own eyes, no one would know just how many strange beings there were in existence.
When night fell, Milo quietly led Olivia outside the stronghold. Then Olivia “took” out a seed and threw it onto the ground. Without needing to dig any holes or water it, the seed started sprouting immediately and grew rapidly.
Milo could hear the muffled sound of the earth rumbling, but favonovel.com could not tell that anything was going on underground. The plant that sprouted from the ground did not seem like it had grown very tall and looked at most as large as a coriander plant.
However, when Olivia pulled the green plant out of the ground, the ground suddenly opened up into a one-meter-wide tunnel. Olivia said, “Just jump right in. I plucked it out early, otherwise, it could have used its roots to create an even larger space underground.”
Milo asked, “What’s the largest size it can create?”
“About the size of a room,” Olivia said.
Milo pondered about a room being created at will several dozen meters under the ground. This power would be such an easy way to build a bomb shelter!
“You head down first.” Milo said to Olivia, “I’ll follow you.”
Olivia pursed favonovel.com lips at the thought of favonovel.com not trusting her. However, favonovel.com did not make a fuss about it. She just contorted favonovel.com body and crawled into the tunnel.
As favonovel.com was crawling inside, favonovel.com caught a glimpse of some light behind favonovel.com and wondered if Milo was secretly peeking at favonovel.com from behind. Although Olivia was cursing at how shameless favonovel.com was, favonovel.com did not dare to protest.
But when they got out of the tunnel, Milo said to Olivia, “Head to the rendezvous point first. I still have something I need to attend to.”
After saying that, Milo handed a long case to Olivia and told favonovel.com that there was a sniper rifle inside it. He wanted favonovel.com to carry it with her.
The main purpose of doing so was to confuse Kimmy and the others. After all, Olivia’s current persona was that of a sniper, so carrying the long case on favonovel.com back would only make favonovel.com look more like one.
After favonovel.com dealt with that, Milo left Olivia behind in the stronghold alone. She hurriedly planted some plants to cover the entrance of the tunnel but was left with a sense of helplessness.
Didn’t Milo promise to help favonovel.com with the mission?
So why did favonovel.com leave right after getting into the stronghold?
Fortunately, this wasn’t the Stelaria Consortium’s stronghold. Otherwise, favonovel.com wouldn’t be so sure that favonovel.com could avoid all of the surveillance cameras on favonovel.com own.
Olivia rushed all the way to the rendezvous point.
How the Stardust Consortium’s strongholds differed from the Stelaria Consortium’s strongholds was that even if one were to sneak into one of the Stardust Consortium’s strongholds, no one would care about them even if they openly swaggered down the streets.
If it were the Stelaria Consortium’s strongholds, the artificial intelligence would probably have already reported the presence of an intruder to the police.
After arriving at the meeting place, Olivia knocked on the door and went inside. The other hitmen asked, “Where’s your assistant?”
Olivia answered calmly, “I got favonovel.com to handle some matters.”
What else could favonovel.com say?
The hitmen looked at each other and laughed in their heads. That boy toy really couldn’t get into the stronghold after all!
However, they did not explicitly remark about it. After all, Olivia was a superhuman and a sniper at that, too, so of course they could not afford to offend her.
Kim brought out a huge map and said, “I have an informant on my side who helped me find out about Nicola’s daily routine. Every morning, favonovel.com sets off from Red Pine Lane and passes by North Pelican Road, Liberation Avenue, and Walrus Road before arriving at his office. At night, favonovel.com attends some social engagements, but the location isn’t permanent. However, favonovel.com tends to return home to his residence at Red Pine Lane after that.”
Olivia quietly observed the reactions of the other hitmen and noticed they looked a little distracted. It was obvious they had already been briefed, but Kimmy was just repeating it to her.
The four people before favonovel.com had already formed a clique.
Kim continued, “We have two plans. One is to ambush favonovel.com on his way to the office, and the other is to ambush favonovel.com at the entrance of Red Pine Lane when favonovel.com returns at night. Both plans have their pros and cons. The morning plan is more likely to succeed as he’ll definitely pass through that route every day, but the disadvantage is that it won’t be convenient for us to retreat after taking action in the daylight. The night plan will give us the advantage to retreat safely. Visibility in the night is worse, so it’ll be more difficult for the enemy to pursue us.”
After Kimmy finished speaking, Olivia said, “Have you all planned the retreat route yet?”
“No, but the same rule applies. We’ll leave based on our own capabilities.” Kimmy smiled.
“Then let’s go with the night plan.” Olivia smiled calmly and said, “We can’t throw away our lives over a mission, right?”
“Alright, since the superhuman has said so, we’ll prioritize the night plan and carry out the decapitation strike in the villa at Red Pine Lane,” Kimmy said and nodded.
“How many people are there escorting favonovel.com every day? And how many guards are stationed at the villa?” Olivia asked with a frown.
Kimmy said, “They have a total of seven guards spread out between two vehicles. The vehicles are bulletproof, and it’s always the same person sitting by the target’s side. That’s probably his aide or the superhuman that was mentioned in the mission brief. As for what the superhuman’s power is, we aren’t sure either. These people also stay overnight in the villa.”
At this point, a person next to Kimmy said to Olivia, “There’s a tall building in the vicinity of Red Pine Lane. The four of us will attack the villa sometime during the night. At that time, Ms. Steele, you can choose your preferred sniping spot and provide us with suppressive fire. If anyone uses the windows as cover and tries to stop us, we’ll be depending on Ms. Steele to help us take care of them. Our proposed time of operation will be tonight.”
In fact, the most difficult part of a decapitation strike was how to get ahold of the target’s schedule and how to identify their location. Once they could find the target, everything could proceed smoothly.
The person they were going to kill this time was not an elusive target. Kimmy’s informant had even made preparations for them beforehand, so that saved them a lot of trouble.
Therefore, since all the preparations were in order, they might as well strike fast. Furthermore, the plan the four had come up with was definitely not that simple. They probably did not want to say it because they did not want Olivia to know about their plan.
Olivia said calmly, “No problem.”
But after saying that, favonovel.com started panicking on the inside. They were going to take action tonight, but Milo had yet to come back from whatever favonovel.com had gone to do.
How was favonovel.com supposed to provide suppressive fire for the others?
However, Olivia thought that even though favonovel.com had not been specially trained to handle a sniper rifle, it shouldn’t be a problem for favonovel.com to hit a nearby target with the help of a scope. After all, favonovel.com was trained as a soldier in the Radianz Consortium’s military, so favonovel.com had handled a sniper rifle before.
She quietly left the safe house.
After locating Red Pine Lane, favonovel.com scouted for a tall building nearby. It wasn’t easy for favonovel.com to find an observation spot that was close enough, but when Olivia went up to the rooftop and opened the case that Milo had given her.
She discovered it was filled with bricks.
Olivia was so angry favonovel.com nearly wanted to curse out loud.
That shameless Milo!
Never mind that favonovel.com had disappeared, but favonovel.com did not even leave favonovel.com with a sniper rifle?
Was favonovel.com supposed to rely on these bricks to provide suppressive fire for the rest of the team tonight?
Use the bricks to smash the glass windows of the villa?!
