Chapter 273: Anderson Raymond

Anderson Raymond could not help but frown as he looked into the distance. This was completely unusual. He had never expected to see a person that could move at such an incredible speed, especially in such a small city.Nevertheless, he remained composed, as he looked through the scope of the sniper rifle that he was holding while lying on the ground. He was currently on a small hill, that was covered in bushes.

He was currently inside the bushes, hiding him from the target's vision. It was from this position that he was shooting, but he had not been lucky.

For the first shot, he had actually missed. He attributed that to the other party being lucky, and having such an instinctive reaction to danger. If he was just a few microseconds late, Anderson would have definitely hit the target.

But the thing that surprised him the most was how this target managed to move from one hiding spot to another at such an incredible speed. This time, he could not attribute this to him being lucky, as this was pure capability.

Despite the surprise that he was having, he was intent on completing the mission. To him, as long as a mission was taken, it had to be completed.

So, he continued watching the target from the location that he was in, hoping to see the target making a move. And soon, he suddenly spotted ahead that was appearing from behind the tree.

Bang!

Without hesitation, he aimed and pulled the trigger. But he was once again left speechless when he failed to hit the target. Just when he was pulling the trigger, the other party actually managed to retract their head, leading to him failing to hit the target.

It could be said that this was the second time that he had ever missed a target ever since he became a professional sniper. And all the two times were on the same target, something that had never happened to him. Sёarch* The Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

At this point, Anderson became wary of the other party. He decided to make sure that he would not be spotted by the other party. Even though he felt that the possibility of the other party being able to find him, and attacking him from such a long distance was low, he never liked taking chances.

Additionally, there was another possibility that had budded inside his mind. Even though he was not sure, still, it filled him with trepidation. If it was actually true, then he was in danger.

Even though it was something that might lead to the end of his life, it was nonetheless an opportunity as well. If he managed to take down the target, the reward that he would receive would be more than he had ever received before.

As he thought of that, he kept on looking through the scope, hoping that the target would emerge. But even after waiting for more than 5 minutes, there was no any action from the other end.

And had it not been that he had seen that the bullet had hit the ground, he might have ended up thinking that he had actually hit the target, and the target was currently dead, not being able to move.

Despite the time moving, without the other party making any movement, Anderson was not impatient at all. As a sniper, he had already learned how to become patient, and wait for the right opportunity to strike.

Just as Anderson was planning on continuing to wait, he suddenly noticed movements through the scope of his sniper rifle. It was just that the movements were not coming from the target, but instead, from an area a little distance away from the location of the target.

Anderson's expression changed immediately. He understood what this meant. This clearly indicated that the others had already got an impatient, and were planning on taking action as well.

He could not help but feel a little disgruntled. He felt that his pride as a sniper was going to be shattered if they actually managed to kill the target instead of him.

Previously, he had boasted to them that he would be able to take down the target in less than a minute after they had arrived. And after that, they could enjoy the rest of their vacation while using the money that they would have received after completing the mission.

But now, it had already been more than 20 minutes, but he had not completed killing the target at all! Additionally, he had already shot several times, but he had not managed to land even a single attack on the target.

Even though he could blame it on the skills of the other party, if the target was still killed at the end of it all, there would be no excuse at all. He would definitely be mocked for the following few days during the time that they were out for a vacation.

They were mercenaries. They had just received a vacation from the main group. But just as they were about to go out and enjoy themselves, they found that there was a mission that had been posted.

Considering that the mission was quite easy, and it was in the same area that they were going to spend their time, they decided to take it. It was going to give them a few bucks, and at the same time, they could enjoy themselves while there.

The mission was quite simple, to kill a youth. Even though the information claimed that he was quite skilled, what was the use of being skilled in combat in front of a bullet? In any case, they believed that any of them was capable of killing the other party.

To them they believed that the skills that they possessed was way beyond what an ordinary youth could possess. So, they thought that even if they fought with the youth without using the guns, they could simply take him out.

But now, observing the current situation, it was clearly not as easy as they had thought. Still, Anderson did not believe that it was impossible for them to be able to kill him.

So, while feeling anxious, Anderson continued looking towards the area that the target was in. But, the agitation that he was feeling kept on increasing as he realized that the others were already getting closer.

Bang!

Getting a little frustrated, Anderson pulled the trigger. Even though the target had not shown himself, Anderson could not allow him to continue hiding.

He was intending on using the same method that he had used before, to ensure that the target would rush out of his hiding place. But this time, he was not going to be careless, as he was waiting for the target to come out of the hiding place. Enjoy new adventures at M-V-L

The moment that he fired, he realized that the others had seemingly stopped. This immediately made him to feel a little relieved. Since they were no longer moving, it was going to be an opportunity for him. He was definitely not going to miss it.

Bang! Bang!

Anderson continuously shot. This was the advantage of the rifle that he was having. Completely different from ordinary sniper rifles, this rifle could actually should consecutively 20 times before needing to be reloaded.

This was the technology that was being used by the mercenary group that he belonged to. The only disadvantage that it had was that it could not fire rapidly like an AK-47 gun. Instead, this could continuously shoot with a gap of one second after shooting each bullet.

And other than that, this gun possessed tremendous firepower. Even the bullets that it was using were all high caliber bullets. That was the reason why the gun was currently standing on the ground, while he was holding it from behind.

It was actually impossible for him to be able to use this gun while he was standing. It had to be supported, otherwise, the rebound from the gun would throw him off, something that might end up making him miss the target.

As he continued shooting, he could see that the tree was about to break. This made him excited. He believed that within a frame of two seconds, he should be able to aim for the target, before shooting.

That was the confidence that he possessed in his capabilities. So, while preparing to shoot for the last time before the tree remained only a single shot before collapsing, he took a deep breath.

According to him, it was impossible for the target to move in the same direction that they had come from, considering that the tree that they had used before was about to fall in just a few shots.

So, he believed that the target would be moving to the tree that was not that far away from them, just about 3 meters away.

Anderson believed that it was going to be impossible for this guy to be able to move within 2 seconds, to cover 3 meters. Even if it was possible if he was alone, it was impossible for them to be able to do that while having someone with them.

A small smile suddenly formed at the corners of his lips. In Anderson's mind, he could already foresee himself shooting the target, before the target collapsed onto the ground.

Then, to vent his frustrations, he would shoot a few more bullets, even though they were precious, to make sure that the target would not die with a full corpse.

Then, he prepared to pull the trigger. But just before he could pull the trigger, he was shocked.

Bang! Bang! Bang!
