Chapter 16 (1/2)

When the five shots are fired, Floyd has started to change the magazine of his sniper rifle.

The customized sniper rifle uses a 5-round detachable box magazine. Each bullet is 7.62mm. The bullet is also specifically made to increase the piercing, so the bullet is narrowed at the front and has barbs on the side.

With it, he has taken out about right people, five dead and three so injured that they can no longer participate in the fight.

The ȧssassins from the Leviathan don't care about their dead or injured companions. They head for their target, that is, the Allens family.

With that goal in their mind, they continued forth. Although their target is a new billionaire family, none of their agents could enter the house, no matter what method they use. So they are still vigilant before coming here and are even more so when many of their people died.

They know they are found so they started to use the foliage around them to hide. They are the ȧssassins under Talia who is the daughter of the founder of League of Shadows.

When Floyd has changed the magazine of his sniper rifle, he looks to see that they all have disappeared.

But he isn't anxious, for the long-range battle is over and the frontal battle will begin soon.

It isn't that he is careless but something Thomas has told all the ten enhanced bodyguards under him.

It will put too more limelight than necessary on them. If the guards themselves fight and kill the ȧssassins, even if there is a loss on Thomas side, it is acceptable to everyone.

After all this round if the ȧssassination isn't something about hardcore animosity between people, but a test to enter the top ranks of the capitalists.

As long as the Allens survive till sunrise, that is, about four hours, the ȧssassination will turn thanks and void.

Thomas hope is to kill some and leave the rest to tell the tales. These killers will be the only ones living for the spies sent by other organizations and groups will pay with their lives to calm the anger.

As such a siren rang through the mansion ground which woke up every sleeping soul in the mansion.

It also meant that the killers are reaching the mansion area and will soon arrive at the walls.

Floyd packs his things while mumbling, ” My job is done. It is time for Ron, Derek, and Gareth to deal with these people now. By that time, Michael, Bill and Clark would return from their posts to support the fort.”

Floyd work is done for now. His next post is inside the mansion and makes deal with the remnants who manage to enter the fort.

Only Thomas and his parents know about the existence of Skynet and the terminator robots under his command. They have no idea about the next level of defense which the mansion possesses.

In Thomas room,

After the siren rang, Thomas has also woken up along with the other inhabitants of the mansion.

He looks outside his window and sees the occasional flashes and explosive sounds from outside. This shows that there is a big battle going on between his security guards and the killers from the Leviathan organization.

He looks at the beautiful ornamental and antique wall clock hung at the wall of his room. It is around one o clock and so they only need to last a few hours more.
