Chapter 406 An Expert Sniper


    "Don''t worry. I trained for this in military school." Daisy knew that Edward worried about her. She would


    do the same if Edward were in her position. They both cared a lot about each other.


    "Promise me: stay safe. If not for your own sake, at least do it for me. Be careful, "


    Edward urged, his eyes full of concern and affection. Yet Daisy suddenly jumped out just after he


    finished his words. She was as quick as a viper''s strike that no one ever saw her. Not even Edward


    who sat beside her had expected her sudden and fast action.


    But she was right. She was trained for this. She wrapped herself in a coat, assessed the angle, opened


    the door, and she was out, rolling. She got up and trotted up the hill with no time to check her grazed


    skin. As much as she had used all her skills, she still moved slower than usual due to the inconvenient


    outfit. That was a performance gap she didn''t want to see.


    Yet she was also aware that she had no time left to mourn this painful disparity. At this moment, time


    meant life. She found a vantage point to set up the rifle.


    She set up the sniper rifle, got down on the ground, found the target, pulled back the bolt, and got


    loaded. With the target aimed at and all other factors calcted, she adjusted her breath, then


    squeezed the trigger. Her moves were smooth and skilled. The bullet she fired hit the driver of the


    leading car in the head.


    She was bold and quick. After her first target was down, she now moved onto the next car. With the


    curl of finger, she shot out the second bullet right into the moving car.


    "Crap. There''s an expert sniper hiding somewhere. Ry that to the boss," said a man in the car that


    was about to lose control and hit the tree beside the road. But his reasonable analysis was toote.


    Their car ran into the tree and died, so did the men in the car.


    Daisy curled her lips and formed a cruel smile. Yet she dare not underestimate her rivals. She was


    good, but someone else in the group could be just as good -- or better. She picked up the rifle and


    moved to a different firing position.


    "Mr. Mu, are you alright?" Edward followed Daisy''s instructions and parked his car in a more secluded


    spot. But even so, Luke still found where he was by the dim light from the streemp.


    "I''m okay. Go find a ce for us to fight back." Edward sneered and ran into the bushes beside with


    guns in both hands.


    See that Edward was all safe and sound, Luke also entered the grove with both a gun and diamond-


    shaped darts which could kill people in short distance without making any noise.


    "Fuck! Where are they? They flee so fast." Daisy had climbed up the hill at full speed, yet two cars still


    escaped before she started shooting.


    "Be careful. I saw the car light go off over there. So they must be hiding somewhere around here. Pull it


    together. The Boss is quite interested in that woman. If you find them, kill all the men, only capture the


    woman for our boss''s pleasure." A man ordered. His conceited tone implied that they thought of Daisy


    only as some weak girl. They underestimated her.


    "Exactly, our boss has had almost all types of women. But he''s never slept with any woman in the army,


    let alone a female colonel. He''d have a great time," The other man said,ughing loudly. ''What a sick


    man! And lusting after my wife? Yeah, I''ve got a bullet with his name on it, ''


    Edward thought, sneering. He might be no good sniper, but that didn''t mean that he was lousy at


    shooting. To Edward, that man''s days were numbered the moment he fantasized about Daisy. Without


    thinking about it further, he squeezed the trigger and gave the man what was due.


    "Ambush! Watch out! Split into groups and root them out one by one," the gang leader ordered. It was


    quite intimidating to see a man speaking andughing one minute ago and then cold and dead the


    next.


    ''Huh. Split up? Then it''s easier to deal with you, '' Luke figured and threw a diamond-shaped dart. It


    buried itself in the throat of the man nearest him, leaving that underling no chance to breathe, let alone


    to call for help.


    Edward, at the same time, also waged his one-man war. He fired several shots at the gang, a disdainful


    look still on his face. He found it hard to believe that these horrible cowards could survive the cutthroat


    world of gunrunning. Their boss must be either a moron or a careless yboy. Or maybe he''s a


    licentious fool, or he wouldn''t have wanted toy a finger on Daisy.


    Edward''s intense shooting spree soon gave away his hiding ce. Then the gang fought back violently.


    But Edward had already thought of that and hid behind a big tree. He was smart about it, and managed


    to evade their shots. But the bullets mming into the bark so near his head still frightened him.


    Seeing Edward was in danger, Luke stopped lurking and began shooting back to divert their attention


    away from Edward. He didn''t kill any, but helped drain their ammo and distracted them, giving Edward


    better odds of survival.


    The worst thing you do in a gunfight is giving away your position but still having no clue where your


    enemy is hiding. This was what the gang was doing. Half of their men were gunned down, but Luke,


    Edward, and Daisy were nowhere to be found. They were hidden killers, striking from the shadows then


    ducking back into the darkness. The gang figured out they were at a disadvantage and searched for a


    hiding ce as well. If they couldn''t find one, they had to stall for more time. They had to wait for the


    reinforcements to show up and save them.


    Indeed, the gang also had snipers. Daisy found out that fact when a bullet flew past her ear. So under


    the cover of the dark night, she changed to another hiding ce. She was close to where Edward


    parked. And she must make the best use of her small unit tactics until the backup forces came.


    Daisy was covered with hay dregs and dirt. But it didn''t make her look any less beautiful. She was even


    more eye-catching with that wildness on her.


    "The trap we set may be of no more use. They choose to fight here. Then let''s show our true power in


    this gun fight. We''re gun runners. We can''t lose with all these advanced weapons," the big boss said,


    stroking his chin in contemtion. He looked at these luxurious cars burning in the sea of fire without


    the slightest sympathy for his dead underlings.


    "Boss, they have an awesome sniper. We''ve lost so many people just because we haven''t found out


    where he''s hiding." As all the gang cars stopped, Daisy began to worry about Edward. There were too


    many of them. She had destroyed quite a few of their cars, but there were still a dozen more. So it was


    not hard to estimate how many people were up there.


    Unlike her, Edward had never been trained for fights like this. Nor had he faced any situation this


    dangerous. She didn''t know whether Edward could deal with all this. She had to get to Edward as soon


    as possible, or she would remain concerned. And that was a distraction she could''t bear.


    "Mr. Mu, what should we do? There are more of them, and we''re running out of bullets," Luke slid


    toward Edward and said in a low voice.


    "Don''t worry. We''ll find Daisy first. Let''s go to the foot of the hill and meet her there," Edward answered


    while shooting another potential killer dead. As messy as he was, he was still that gorgeous man, as he


    had always been.


    "Okay. Our people are on the way. We just need to hold out until they get here," Luke said. They


    deserved to be arms dealers. The weapons they used were all superb and advanced. Besides, the


    gang outnumbered Edward and Luke, thus turning them from offense to defense.

    The moment Luke finished his words, the man nearest to him had been shot dead and the bullet aimed


    at him now flew to the sky. The man copsed on the ground.


    "Watch out!" Daisy''s elusive figure slipped to their side. The smoking gun in her hand told them that it


    was her that shot the man dead -- and saved Luke''s life.


    "Thank you, Mrs. Mu," Luke knew that he had been too careless just then. If not for Daisy, he would


    have been seriously injured, or even worse, be a corpse. He needed to stay alive, if only to


    protect Edward.


    "Honey, are you alright?" Edward was thrilled to see that Daisy was all safe. But his heart instantly fell


    when he saw the blood on her face. She was a mess, so she must have tussled with those arms


    dealers at close range.


    "I''m okay. Now quick! Behind the hill! I need to set a sniper point there. Hurry!" Daisy felt so lucky that


    she knew all about this city, its terrain in particr, only because she could find out the best shooting


    points there so quickly.


    With the bright Moon, they could see clearly what the gang members were doing. And the gang''s car


    lights actually made them more visible in the dark night.


    "Is it heavy?" Edward felt so bad that Daisy had to carry such a heavy rifle, yet he couldn''t help her


    carry it. For snipers, the rifle must be brought with them. So he just looked at her affectionately.


    "I''m used to it. Come on, find your hiding ce." Just like Edward thought, by the time Luke and him


    had found decent hiding ces, Daisy had set up the rifle, got down, aimed at the target, loaded and


    shot. She did all these in mere handful of seconds. She was quick and smooth.
