North American Detective: I am Proficient in All Kinds of Gun Quick Draws-Chapter 556 - 319 The Downfall of Lucifer Part 3

Amon's eyes flashed with sudden realization. So that's how it is!

Ignoring the general's unpleasant expression, he continued to issue orders, "Find the island's power supply equipment and disable it!"

With that, he led a group of his men, preparing to land on the island himself. Without those materials, there won't be any good outcome when we return. Amon was ready to risk everything!

...

"Wow, what's going on here?" Dean wondered, looking at the warship on the sea and scratching his head. If he hadn't seen the soldiers on the island in a surrounding formation, he would have turned around and left immediately.

"Little Mike said that a signal was constantly being sent from Spider Woman's body to the satellite overhead, reporting the cruise ship's location. She must be from another organization, so these warships might also belong to a force outside the Lucifer Organization."

"First, let's land on the island and find Little Mike to get a handle on the situation."

Dean crawled up from his hiding spot. Using the properties of Subspace, he dried the seawater from his body, changed into high-end gear, and donned the mask he had prepared. He was just about to take out the communication device Little Mike had given him to contact the other party under a different identity.

Just then, WHIRR...

Several speedboats appeared on the distant sea, carrying around twenty or thirty men in suits as they approached the small island. The distance was considerable, so Dean took a telescope from Subspace and looked in their direction.

The next moment, his hand trembled. Amon? He thought he was hallucinating. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Dean would never have imagined encountering Amon here! Wasn't this guy supposed to be neck-deep in trouble with that terrorist-loving Holy Heavenly Kingdom organization? Why would he show up here?

Unmanned drones filled the air.

Dean pondered for a moment, then took out the communication device Little Mike had provided from Subspace and pressed the call button.

..

「Los Angeles.」

Little Mike was watching the events unfold through the base's surveillance. He had already copied all the digital information hidden in the base. As for the paper records, there was nothing he could do about those.

Just then, a crude tablet in front of him began to flash. It was the satellite communicator with a built-in positioning system he had prepared for Dean's mission; in a crisis, it could be used to call for rescue.

Little Mike tapped the screen lightly. It lit up, displaying a satellite map where a red dot flashed at a certain coordinate—the exact island Little Mike was currently monitoring!

Dean? An uncharacteristic flicker of emotion crossed Little Mike's usually impassive face. Then, he shook his head. Dean is over a hundred nautical miles from the base; it's impossible for him to have reached it. Besides, the boarding inspection was strict, so he wouldn't have had a chance to bring the device I gave him. So, this must be someone collaborating with Dean, or another faction. A pity. I destroyed the cruise ship's surveillance. Otherwise, I could see what Dean is up to right now.

Little Mike gently tapped the tablet screen. "Who are you?"

"You can call me Zero!" a deep, authoritative voice boomed from the tablet's speaker.

His real voice? Little Mike noted down the caller's information and voiceprint, then continued, "What do you need?"

"I'm a friend of Dean's. I've taken over your task. Now, I need you to provide intelligence on the base and the locations of key individuals! As compensation, I'll bring you what you want!"

"Just moments ago, hundreds of fully armed marines went in, and now they're all food. There's a magnetic field inside the base, rendering all metal weapons useless. The passage to the innermost area is occupied by a group of extremely powerful test subjects controlled by a separate system that I can't influence. Are you sure you want to go in?"

Although Little Mike believed this 'Zero' was walking into certain death, it was none of his concern. It would be best to get more comprehensive data, but it didn't matter if he couldn't. Based on the scattered research data he had already obtained, he was confident he could replicate and even surpass the original findings.

"Cut the crap. Give me the route inside!"

"Alright, the route is..."

「The Small Island.」

After listening to the detailed route provided by Little Mike, Dean tucked the earpiece into Subspace.

Amon, I hope you're not looking for your own death, he thought.

He cracked his neck, and with a flip of his hand, a heavy Gatling gun appeared. He slung the ammunition belt over his shoulder, aimed at the drones in the sky, and pulled the trigger.

His killing intent was set. Whoever stands in my way dies!

..

A torrent of bullets instantly filled the sky. Drone after drone, as if precisely targeted by an expert sharpshooter, plummeted from above.

"What's happening?!"

On the speedboat, Amon and his men stared wide-eyed as the drones were shot down one by one.

Nearby Marines reacted swiftly; two squads immediately rushed toward the sound of gunfire. However, by the time they arrived, there wasn't a soul in sight, not even a shadow. If not for the strong scent of gunpowder lingering in the air and the shell casings littering the ground, they would have almost believed it was all an illusion!

Just as they were wondering how to report this, screams erupted from their pagers:

"Fuck! Someone's trying to get into the base!"

"A Gatling gun! My God, that man is wielding a Gatling gun!"

"Requesting backup, request—"

BOOM!

The sound of explosions followed. The screams had come quickly, but they vanished even faster.

By the time all squads converged on the position near the base entrance, they found only the mangled remains of their comrades, strewn haphazardly everywhere...

Everyone who witnessed this scene felt a cold dread creep into their hearts.
