Taking the Mafia to the Magic World
chapter-154

Not knowing that Vicente had secretly left this place, eager to kill him but also overestimating their own abilities, some of the assassins in this town, looking for the biggest local bounty, acted against Vicente's men and fell.

With Vicente's upgraded weapons, his men could threaten even level 3 Acolytes, even if their weapons were damaged after only two or three shots.

And so the sounds of gunfire echoed around the estate.

Bang!

Several shots rang out from a machine gun on the south side of the building, where two assassins had entered from underground using a special spell.

But when they encountered them, the guard standing by unloaded his machine gun on them, surprising them with dangerous attacks.

Even level 3 Acolytes had to be careful with these shots. Even if one of them was prepared to deal with it, it was too complicated and risky to stop it or even counterattack.

"Aaaagh!"

As the shots rang out, the screams came mostly from the mouths of the enemies invading this building, suffering at the hands of Vicente's men.

"Stay in your places! Don't let the bastards get on our property! This is self-defense!" One of them shouted loud enough for people outside the building to hear.

They had to have a justification for killing people and not having a problem in the city.

Meanwhile, Vicente's men knew that the more they killed today, the less dangerous this city would be for their group and especially for their boss.

When Vicente's men over there heard one of the Acolytes shout such a thing, they stood firm in their positions and aimed at the weak points of this building, deliberately left that way for their traps.

Bang!

...

Bang!

Those outside Vicente's building had already realized what was happening inside, as very loud shots were coming from that place.

But this was only the first test for Vicente's group!

After the first attacks and deaths that day, their main opponents would soon appear with different strategies than the first assassins that appeared there!

Unaware of Vicente's absence, the leaders of Defiant Tyranny appeared in the area but did not act immediately.

The Scarlet Syndicate men in the area to protect Vicente's group were too busy to stop the top echelon of this other local faction from advancing there.

But as soon as they noticed the chaos inside the building, which was being attacked by level 2 and 3 Acolytes, the level 4 and 5 men of this group quickly realized that their target wasn't there.

"The fucking Cesar isn't in the area. Only the weakest of his men are here." A level 4 Acolyte said as his eyes glowed brightly with a red pentagram over one of them.

This person could see through walls. With this special ability, he could see that Vicente wasn't there.

"Where did that bastard go?" Another asked as an ugly expression appeared on his face.

The tracker of the group said. "Boss, don't worry, I already found his tracks."

The face of the faction leader, this man who had received disturbing news from some of his local allies this morning, changed to a smiling expression after those words.

"All right, let's go after that damned Cesar!"

...

As a battalion of the royal army approached Vicente's building to raid the place in search of a wanted man, the last of the groups of assassins arrived just before the soldiers.

"Shit! The army is coming!"

"Let's unite and invade this place before the royal soldiers do!" One of the six remaining assassins outside the building shouted to the others, seeing that this was their last chance.

Instead of trying to enter the area, these last assassins agreed to use a more violent strategy by attacking the entrance of this building.

If they didn't act now, they would never have a chance to get their reward!

Boom!

They simultaneously attacked the entrance of this place, destabilizing the defenses of Vicente's group.

Vicente's group was spread out around the place. By concentrating their attacks on a single point, these six individuals were able to quickly break through the front defenses of the building and enter together.

Some of Vicente's men there focused their weapons on shooting the men, but with six level 3 assassins acting together, even the group's powerful weapons did not have the desired effect.

These men formed a defensive formation and faced the enemy fire, holding out long enough to see their opponents' weapons lose their effectiveness until they were no longer a threat to them.

Realizing this, the men in this group didn't miss their chance to kill the men in front of them.

"Hurry, a bloody battalion is only 30 seconds away from us!" One of them shouted, noticing the mana disturbance caused by the movement of soldiers.

With that in mind, their group was soon there. Instead of focusing on killing the men on their way to Vicente, they headed to the only place Vice could be, ignoring all the men in the area.

When they realized that Vicente wasn't in the building, they cursed their luck, but since some of them were wanted by the army, they soon began their escape.

Knowing Vicente couldn't have gotten far, they weren't ready to give up.

"The bastard escaped through the tunnel in the basement of the building we broke into!" One of them commented as he ran.

"Let's follow in the footsteps of other groups in the city. I'm sure someone has already discovered this and is after the bastard." Another bounty hunter commented.

As they fled, the group of soldiers finally arrived in front of this building, devastated after so many enemy attacks.

As they quickly surrounded the place, one of the Captains there shouted. "Come out of the building and surrender. We'll consider everyone in this place an enemy when we enter!"

Their group couldn't fight the army, or they would become rebels and be hunted across the state. So it wasn't long before the first of Vicente's men left the building with their hands up.

With room to move, the soldiers moved quickly through the surrounding rubble, ignoring the wounded being carried through the area.

With their skills or weapons ready, these soldiers would soon search Vicente's entire building until they discovered their target was no longer there.

"Captain, there's no one here." The leader of this group said as he informed another group on the outskirts of the city that was already taking action because of Cesar's sudden movement.

Then a female voice said. "I know. We found his tracks, and we're on our way to the bastard. Don't worry, we'll catch Cesar tonight!"
