Chapter 717:
The Mafia and Verruckt might have been nearby, but this was a rough neighborhood, where gunfights were a common occurrence. The sound of gunshots didn’t even make people flinch. The street was used to it.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The warehouse erupted into chaos. Gunfire filled the air, blending with the smoke and confusion.
The thugs had underestimated the woman before them. What they thought was a soft target quickly turned into a nightmare. Allison moved with lightning speed, effortlessly dodging their attacks and striking back with precision.
She dispatched them one by one, taking them out with expert efficiency. It was like a game to her, playing with her prey before delivering the final blow. She snapped necks in close combat, her movements almost too quick to follow.
By the time the last thug crumpled to the floor, the room fell silent. The once-chaotic scene now seemed eerily still.
Not a single drop of blood marred Allison’s clothing.
She wiped her fingers with a wet wipe, the calmness of the moment contrasting with the deadly violence she had just unleashed.
“Gordon, the people following me, they should be gone now, right?”
Gordon’s voice came through the earpiece, relieved. “Yeah, they couldn’t keep up with you. Allison, I’m in the mobile van nearby. I can pick you up whenever you’re ready.”noveldrama
“All right, but not yet,” Allison replied, her eyes scanning her phone. “I need to confirm something first.”
She checked Verruckt’s location, and Gordon’s tone shifted, sensing her intentions.
“Allison, don’t tell me you’re planning to go after Verruckt,” he said, concern evident in his voice.
Allison could tell that Gordon had overheard their conversation, so she didn’t try to hide her intentions. “Yes, they mentioned the Mafia, and I have some old ties with them, so I need to check something.”
The memory of the recent kidnapping case on the Burned Islands lingered in her mind. That day, she and Kellan had barely escaped with their lives after taking down several Mafia members, but the real leader, Daniel, had remained elusive.
As long as she held the key to the Hacker’s World, she knew Daniel wouldn’t leave her alone. But rather than wait for him to make the next move, Allison preferred to take action herself.
Gordon exhaled deeply. “Alright, but be careful.”
