Chapter 47 47:Superhumans

Just as Dawson exited the room, a loud boom came from inside startling him. He reacted immediately looking for cover in case of an explosion but after a moment, he was baffled hearing no more sound or flames bursting out through the door.

A brief silence ensued that was broken by panic and horror-stricken cries.

Dawn, who took cover by lying down on the floor a bit away from the room, was baffled, sensing an explosion or flames wreaking havoc.

"What the hell happened?"Dawson cursed aloud as the sudden sound almost made his balls rise to his mouth.

"Did one of the bodyguards make a move and kill someone? It might be.%

Dawson, after careful contemplation, entered the room and paused seeing a dozen bodyguards shouting in panic holding Nathan who sat in his place lifelessly with a huge hole over his head.

"He...He is dead....Who did this?"

The bodyguards instead of answering looked at the large window wall glass.

Dawson assessed the situation and commented in disbelief. This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

"The sniper killed the target who was surrounded by a dozen bodyguards with one shot."Dawson's face tensed up on seeing the hole in the bulletproof glass.

"How is this possible? Just which bullet and rifle did he use?"

"Do you have the bullet?"Dawson asked indifferently. He was more interested in the sniper than the dead guy.

As Dawson asked this question, one of the bodyguards shouted, horrifying him.

"That's the problem...There is no bullet here. It's as if it disappeared."

"What the fuck?"

........

Using the information given by Blood Net and keeping tabs on the Marionette Group Pharmaceuticals, Leon finally got to Nathan who cooped in his home quite persistently.

He wasn't a cultivator and his guards were fairly weak except for Joe whom he had nurtured with great difficulty. Leon traced his meeting schedule and stationed himself from the top of a high-rise building a hundred meters away from the meeting place.

In the past few days, Leon had experimented crazily with that rod which after not-so-deliberate thinking was named Exitus meaning departure.

And he was truly astounded by the results. Exitus can take any form and change into anything according to his imagination.

Its changing shape isn't limited to weapons only. It can take any form as long as it's not a complicated structure.

With theoretical knowledge, one can turn its shape as one wishes with exact precision. He tried to change its shape into a bullet after studying them.

Moreover, it copies the exact sharpness, and shape with more advanced lethality. With vivid imagination, it can also copy the internals like changing a part of the inside into dust of gunpowder.

The restriction on it was that it could only exist in one piece and couldn't be split.

Secondly, Leon can't tame any weapon with spirit or ego.

The weapon tier begins at Mortal Tier followed by Earth Tier, Sky Tier, Epic Tier, Mythical, and Divine Tier.

And both women looked a bit similar.

"Why do I feel as if I have seen this woman somewhere?"Leon muttered rubbing his chin as he looked at Queen of Spades

It's as if he had met her previously.

Amid this, the helper came back with the phone.

"Mr.Noel, one of the initiators of the mission, wanted to talk with you."

Leon's brows furrowed as he contemplated whether this was a trap or something

Most of the people who issue the mission try to remain anonymous and rarely engage in chat until it's a private mission. As per the payment, if they didn't do it, Blood Net would personally make a move blacklisting them bringing endless trouble.

"Okay!"Leon got up and took the call.

"Hello!"

"Is this Mr.Noel!"

"Yes, but can you perhaps give your identity," Leon spoke in a raspy voice that was neither polite nor overbearing"

"I can only say that I am from one of the rival companies of Marriott Pharmaceutical Group and my name is Silver."

The man named Silver paused a bit and then spoke"I received the assassin report and after checking a bit, I am impressed. I am curious about what you use to kill but I will keep my curiosity in my bag."

"I have also read your record and heard that you are accepting several missions on the assassins of the Marriott Group and you have already taken down 3 directors of the board besides Nathan so I wonder if you have any personal enmity with them."

Leon raised his brows looking at the phone.

Last week, he had been tracking the Marriott group and was surprised by their operation.

On the surface, they stood in 8th position in the Pharmaceuticals group in Mystara and 23rd in the whole world but in the underground organization, they were the biggest seller of drugs.

Tracking them, Leon found that they import expired medicine and sell them after relabeling the medicine cover by extending the expiry date for a few more months as the medicine might still be potent but that also comes with risk.

And those who raised their voice were either killed off or disappeared.

Leon grasped his phone tightly and asked with a solemn voice.

"I have some grievous enmity with them due to which I might be targeted by them soon so...."

"That's wonderful...I mean that's bad. That's why I think I can extend some support to you."Silver spoke joyfully, cutting Leon's speech.

Leon gave this guy a weird look and asked

"Why are you going to such lengths, Mr.Silver?And what do you want?"

"Me. Noel, I will tell you a secret to show my faith."

Leon paused anticipating what secret this guy was talking about.

"How much do you know about Superhumans?"
