Chapter 146

Lucky 146

"Kuh, I swear, I will find that asshole!!"

Leon spat blood as he writhed in pain. If he was not wearing a battlesuit, perhaps his shoulder was already blown away. He didn't expect the shot so he didn't activate his power to deflect it. Who would have thought that a stray bullet would hit him anyway?

"Shit!"

The bullet's trajectory slightly altered because it hit walls and blockades along the way. Still, the fact that the bullet hit Leon was enough to infuriate him. Now, Leon was mad. 

He called for one of his lackeys to heal him. His team had a healer in case something like this happened. The healer healed him shortly and he could move his shoulder again. 

"If not because of this high-end battle suit…"

He was quite intrigued and frightened about it. He was curious about what weapon that the unknown man used to damage him. His battle suit was one of the newest versions that Cudgel Tech released. It was a shrunken battle suit with improved mobility, strength, and defense. Yet it still received damage from the unknown weapon. 

"But it's obvious that it's an energy gun, a high-class IBM. Probably a rifle."

He gritted his teeth. The bullets from energy guns are made of pressured energy, they would disappear after a few minutes once they were fired. 

"Sir, we received a report that the hostages are missing!"

"I know that already!! That's why I'm trying my best to complete this! What is Orca's situation? Did they catch the pink-haired girl?"

"Sir, we lost contact with them."

"What!?"

Leon's eyes widened, almost his eyeballs popping out. Then, his already paled face turned grim. Orca was not a 2nd Advanced but he had a good mind, that's why he was the second in command. 

He glanced at the engineers who were sweating a lot, tired and sleepless.

"Is it still not finished!!?'

He had to leave this place. His real mission would be completed once he had taken Marianne, their primary sacrifice, to the headquarters.

"Give us five more minutes!!"

"You fools!! How many times did you say that, huh? It's been three days!!"

"You know that fixing a teleportation device is not that easy. First, we need a great amount of energy to turn it on. Then, we had to set the location to the other teleportation device."

"My baby has already done that. You guys are the only ones who are getting slow! Fucking trash!"

Leon's boyfriend already accomplished that task. They were just waiting for Leon's side to finish theirs. 

'I should have contacted Puti and Sergio... Damn it! Because of the jammer, I can't contact them!'

He was getting pissed. Their hostages were gone and they didn't have any way to negotiate with the government. At any moment, this flying ship might get nuked. 

Their plan was to settle the Flying Ship over the Capitolium and detonate the bombs while the government was trying its best to negotiate. Leon and his group would escape using the teleportation device and they will witness how the Capitolium shower on with fire and explosions. 

'This is the reason why we need Kimberly Cudgel! Fuck Timmy and Sacko, they failed and almost compromised our mission!'

Kimberly was enough to finish the teleportation device if she was here. They were eager to kidnap her and used her brain to accomplish their plans. Sadly, Timmy and Sacko died and the Cudgel Tech started filtering their men to make sure that no spies will dare to enter their Clan. 

The Council of Torment had far more vicious plans, and they needed talented people to accomplish that. 

One of them was Kimberly and Marianne. Although in Marianne's position, her job was to die. 

"Sir, at last, we finished it."

The engineers wiped their sweat and Leon smiled. He nodded and stood up to give them their rewards. 

"Good, now you can rest in peace."

"B- but this is not what we discussed!"

"Yeah, but you're too slow. So I will find another batch of engineers, much faster and younger than you old folks."

"You bastard!!'

The engineers tried to attack him but they flew around instead. Their bodies were ruptured by the force, humans are indeed fragile. Leon smirked. 

"Bunch of fools. You don't know how many years I've endured just for this mission. Being loyal to the Francine, trying to find the best person as our sacrifice, working under her even though she has an awful attitude, and getting her loyalty. You don't know how much I suffered!!"

Leon screamed like a rabid dog. Everything, all for this very moment of abducting Marianne.  

"And this bitch!!"

"Ack!!"

Leon pulled Marianne's hair who was sleeping peacefully. The woman yelped and opened her eyes. It was the most awful way to wake up, she felt like her scalp was getting torn. 

"Leon, you bastard!!"

She glared at Leon and tried to scratch him. But because she just woke up and her body was weak, she couldn't even lift her arms properly. 

"Hah!"

Leon scoffed and slammed her face against the floor, Marianne's head was bleeding and Leon's smile turned wider. 

"I don't have time to chit-chat with you, Marianne. It's either you will follow me peacefully, or you will follow me black and blue. For the record, it doesn't matter if you have injuries, as long as you're alive everything will be fine. That's the reason why I don't care if Calix stole your chastity! Hahaha, serves you right!"

His bloodshot eyes were so intoxicated. 

"Oh, if you're talking about Calix, he's dead. I killed him, putting him in the water tank and letting him drown. I'm a good person, right? I gave you revenge right?"

"It's because of you why I was raped in the first place!"

"Shut up!!"

"Kah!"

Leon grabbed her hair and pulled her to the teleportation gate. He wanted to leave this place as soon as possible. He knew that the government would send reinforcements or rockets. 

He didn't care about his underlings, they were disposable in the first place. If they successfully escaped before the teleportation device lost its energy, then they'd be lucky. 

"Hehe, I will meet my baby again ~~ Sergio, my ass is ready!!"

He hummed, believing that he succeeded.

However, a person stopped his plan. 

*Bang!

Just as he got closer to the device, a bullet pierced it and the teleportation device lost its function. It crumpled like a sandcastle.

"What? What happened?"

He was dumbfounded. Where did the bullet come from?

"What kind of stupidity is this!!!"

He roared. The teleportation device was shot. 

"Isn't it obvious, I destroyed your little device."

"Y- you!!"

Calix showed up with his handsome scratch-free face. He grinned, mocking Leon's stupified expression. 

"What's up motherfucker! How was it? How sweet was your moment of hope?”
