Chapter 267 Hit The Target

Finished

Adelar reported truthfully, “Boss, there’s a rumor going around that Sebastian, who’s engaged to Ms. Thornton, had one of his subordinates kidnapped by Hellfire Creed. Both parties have agreed to a trade- off tonight at the abandoned Red Cross hospital on the outskirts. Violet’s currently a celebrity in Hellfire Creed, so she’s likely to make an appearance…”

Grimo’s countenance became incredibly gloomy.

These two incidents had unexpectedly connected. It was the perfect opportunity to take care of them all at

OUT.

“Adelar, gather enough manpower immediately. Don’t pare anyone in Hellfire Creed, including Violet!” Grimo’s gaze hardened as if he was a predatory beast targeting his prey, an aura of slaughter emanating

from him.

“Got it” Adelar nodded.

At that moment, Madelyn suddenly said seriously, “I’m going too!”

Grimo gave her a nonchalant glance and said indifferently, “Why are you meddling in this? You should just stay put in the hotel.”

“No, I must go!” Madelyn declared with unwavering determination, “I can be of help.”

“Ms. Thornton, I’d advise against it,” Adelar suggested. Your last stunt of pretending to be Morgana was crazy enough. But this time, things are even more terrifying. A blood war is about to break out, and your life could be at stake. Besides, and pardon my bluntness, you’d only be in the way.” He genuinely thought this woman was too impulsive and reckless.

To his surprise, Madelyn became agitated. “Adelar, how could you say that? Granted, my impersonation of Morgana last time was indeed inappropriate, but that was in the past, and this time is different! I specifically came all the way from Clusia just to help out. If you won’t let me go, you might as well just shoot me right now.”

Moreover, Sebastian’s in deep trouble this time. How could I not try to save him? If anything were to happen to him. how am I supposed to live?

Seeing Madelyn’s unwavering stance, both Adelar and Grimo were stumped.

But this was a matter of life and death, not something to be taken lightly.

Adelar explained, “Ms. Thornton, I’m just concerned about your safety. The people we’ve deployed for this mission have all undergone rigorous tests by our organization. You, with no particular combat skills, would only be in the way.”

“Who says I don’t have skills?” Madelyn retorted defiantly, raising her voice. “Tell me, how are you

test me?”

Adelar was taken aback.

He glanced at Grimo, who appeared to be at a loss. Let with no choice, he nodded at Adelar.

Adelar asked, “Ms. Thornton, do you know how to use gun? Tonight’s situation is extremely dangerous,

joining us.”

Madelyn didn’t show the slightest hesitation. She was well aware of the danger she was in, but since she had come all the way here, she had mentally prepared herself.

Confidently, she said, “I can do it. Back in Clusia, I practiced shooting quite frequently. I believe my skills are up to par. If you have any doubts, feel free to put me to the test.”

Defeated by Madelyn’s stubbornness, Adelar reluctantly nodded. “Since you insist, I’ll test your strength then.”

With that, he led Madelyn to a deserted stretch of road

The road was eerily quiet with hardly any pedestrians in sight. Adelar thought it was the perfect place to test her, so he pointed to a street lamp and said, “Ms. Thornton, if you truly wish to demonstrate your strength, knock that lamp down.

Madelyn followed the direction of his pointing finger. The lamp was about ten meters away, seemingly easy to hit So, she nodded. “All right.”

Following that, Adelar drew a gun from his waist and handed it to Madelyn. “This gun is a standard issue. from our arsenal. Use it to shoot.”

Madelyn accepted the gun without any objections.

Adelar intuitively took a step back, providing her with ample room to shine. Grimo, too, stood aside and watched Madelyn.

Madelyn didn’t hesitate at all. She lifted the gun, shut her left eye, and used her right one to aim at the streetlight. Then, she pulled the trigger.

Following a deafening bang, the bullet whizzed past the streetlight, creating a metallic clashing sound.

It went astray.

Madelyn gazed at the streetlight and felt vexed. Looks like there’s a significant difference between the air gun used during training and a real firearm. The recoil of a real gun is slightly greater than that of an airsoft gun, making it a bit harder to control. However, Madelyn didn’t mind. She figured that if she aimed a little lower, she should be able to compensate for the difference.

So she turned around to face Adelar. “Adelar, that was my first time using this gun and I’m not quite used. to it. Could you give me another chance?”

Adelar acquiesced.

Following that, Madelyn lowered her aim slightly, not allowing herself time to hesitate before she pulled the trigger.

With a loud bang, the once intact lightbulb was instantly shattered. It broke into countless glass fragments. scattering across the floor and creating a crisp sound as they fell..

Her shot had hit its mark.

Adelar was taken aback by the scene, but upon reflection, he dismissed Madelyn’s success as a mere fluke. Nonchalantly, he pointed to a streetlight twenty meters away. “Next, please try hitting that one.”
