Kieran turned around and looked at George.
The cab driver was stunned when he saw the dead body come back to life and then get killed again. His face was filled with disbelief.
However, he wasn't panicking anymore.
When the cab driver noticed Kieran's gaze, he asked in panic, "W-What happened?"
Panic returned to the cab driver's face again.
He was even more terrified than before.
However, in Kieran's eyes, it was too deliberate.
So, Kieran pointed his gun at the cab driver.
The cab driver was stunned.
He then laughed.
"I've been exposed?
Although I've practiced it many times, it really isn't that easy to do it!
But Hon. 2567, your observation is really sharp.
Should I say … "
"As expected of a shaman.
You can see what others can't and solve things that others can't understand. "
There was no inflection, but the similar tone allowed one to instantly confirm that the person before them was the mastermind behind the scenes.
At this moment, he was no longer cowering like before. He stood there calmly, and his aura had become strange and oppressive.
Especially when he turned his head and showed a smile at Kieran, it sent chills down one's spine.
"Can you tell me when you noticed?"
The man asked with a smile.
He didn't even have a gun pointed at him, he was just having a chat with a friend over tea.
"Don't you think you're a little extra?"
Kieran said calmly.
"Extra?
Hah, that's right, extra!
"An emissary like me should have been killed a long time ago after I completed my mission as an emissary. I shouldn't have stayed here."
What an oversight.
"But I really want to see a close-up performance!"
"2567, did you know that when you appeared on the screen, my whole body was excited? It was more excited than any other time!"
The man's smile widened.
Then, it stuck out its scarlet tongue and licked its lips. Its eyes shone with an indescribable light.
"I said, don't you think you're a little extra?"
Kieran ignored the disgusting man and repeated his words.
At the same time, he placed his finger on the trigger.
"Ha, you're not thinking of shooting, are you?"
"Are you sure you still have bullets in the gun?"
"Also …"
"Have you forgotten that I still have a bomb strapped to my body?"
"Unfortunately, I have to tell you that its control button is a reverse detonator. In other words, once I die and my finger leaves this button, it will explode!"
As he spoke, he took out the reverse detonator and showed it to Kieran. The disgusting smile on his face was replaced by a sense of pride.
"In fact, I already knew that you would find out."
"That's why I prepared this."
"I just want to see your helpless expression."
"Compared to how you solve everything in an orderly manner, I'm more looking forward to seeing you show such an expression …"
Bang!
The gun went off.
The talkative man's head was blown off by the powerful impact of the bullet. His brains splattered everywhere, and his proud expression stiffened.
Until the moment of his death, the man did not believe that Kieran would really dare to shoot.
Is he not afraid of bombs?
Of course he is!
Of course Kieran was afraid of bombs at the moment.
Just like how he could tell that the gun was loaded with bullets from the weight of the gun, if he were to be hit by the bomb from a close distance, he would be blasted to pieces.
Without the protection of his items, his B rank Constitution was not enough, even with [Secondary Armored Skin] and [Secondary Elemental Damage Resistance].
So, the moment the gun was pulled, Kieran dashed towards the small door beside him.
KABOOM!
The whole underground building felt like it was going to collapse at that moment.
Intense flames burst out in the hall, wreaking havoc in all directions.
The more terrifying thing was the impact from the explosion.
When Kieran dashed through the small door, the blast wave from the explosion blew his body away, sending him crashing hard on the opposite wall.
If it wasn't for his B rank Constitution and [Secondary Armored Skin] as a buffer, the blast would have taken Kieran's life.
Although his life was saved, Kieran wasn't in a good state either.
"Cough, Cough, Cough."
Blood gushed out as he coughed. Kieran could feel the burning pain all over his body, especially his right hand, which was acting as a buffer. It had been crushed to pieces.
Dragging his right arm, Kieran held the gun in his left hand and walked step by step towards the hall.
The hall that was luxurious a few seconds ago was now in ruins, charred walls, pillars, and lingering flames.
George's body was nowhere to be found.
Just like what the masked man said, the bomb he made was enough to flatten the villa that Kieran was staying in temporarily. The masked man was in the center of the explosion, so the moment the explosion happened, he was torn to pieces.
The masked man wasn't slow either. When Kieran fired, he ran towards the small door on the other side of the hall.
Unfortunately, the other party's speed seemed to be a little slow, and he was directly affected by the aftermath of the bomb.
Not only was his body charred, but his limbs were also missing.
Bang Bang!
When Kieran saw the body, he fired twice without a second thought.
The heavily charred body's head was crushed and its body was torn to pieces. However, after Kieran added another shot, he turned his attention to the small door.
Step by step, he approached the small door.
Behind Kieran, the headless, almost broken body moved all of a sudden. It was like a ferocious beast that had been lying low for a long time, throwing itself at Kieran's back.
Kieran, who was already in front of the small door, didn't turn around. He leaned his body forward and launched a kick with his right leg. The gun in his left hand was pointed forward and he pulled the trigger.
Bang!
The bullet was fired and hit the man who dashed out from the corridor.
Kieran wasn't a stranger. It was one of the cold male waiters.
The man fell to the ground after being shot.
At the same time, Kieran staggered as well.
The body that threw itself at Kieran was stronger than he had expected, but after Kieran's kick, it was crushed to pieces.
However, the man who was shot didn't.
Although he was dead, he wasn't crushed to pieces.
The next moment, the man struggled to get up and charged at Kieran.
Bang!
With a sweep of his leg, the man's neck was accurately hit. The body was sent flying away by Kieran like a rubber ball.
Then, Kieran didn't care about the body anymore and walked forward.
He wasn't looking for the man.
The man's existence was like George's, unnecessary.
Unnecessary to the point that it exposed the real goal of the mastermind.
Dak Dak Dak!
Just as Kieran was about to step over the small door with only a corner of the cement wall left, the rest of the male waiters appeared.
They were armed and formed a human wall in front of Kieran, blocking Kieran's way.
Or rather …
They were protecting the person behind them.
The person that Kieran was looking for.
Over the human wall, Kieran locked his eyes on that person.
