Chapter 276 - Chapter 264: Late Night Mission, Acting Alone

An hour later, after an examination and a shot of painkillers, Perkins had fallen into a deep sleep.

Hunter returned to sit on the sofa in the Safe House, looking at his newly awakened First Aid skill, the smile on his face impossible to suppress.

In the blink of an eye, it had been half a year since he transmigrated to this world.

Relying on the Proficiency System, Hunter had successively activated and awakened dozens of skills.

Although he had only upgraded two of those skills to the maximum level so far,

as he activated more and more skills, the benefits Hunter received were immediate.

His five-dimensional attributes were already nearly five times those of an average adult male.

Along with that, as he mastered more and more new skills,

Hunter also found himself getting closer and closer to being omnipotent.

This visible sensation of getting stronger bit by bit made him very fascinated.

"Next, it's time to complete my own mission."

Hunter hadn't originally planned to cause another scene tonight.

However, not long ago, in order to save Perkins,

he had used a large number of grenades and explosives in Charles Tower.

Vera Tseleski, whom they had eliminated, was also one of the casino moguls in Las Vegas.

After tomorrow morning, as the news was exposed and spread,

Hunter worried that Willy Banks, the target of the mission Diana had commissioned him for and a fellow Las Vegas casino mogul like Vera Tseleski,

might temporarily leave Las Vegas or significantly increase the security around him!

When that time came, even with Hunter's extraordinary skills,

it would be much harder to complete this mission.

Therefore, Hunter prepared to eliminate Willy Banks tonight as well.

Once he thought of it, he immediately acted.

Hunter had a massive amount of weapons and equipment in his private space.

Thus, he wasn't worried about the issue of insufficient preparation.

After confirming that Perkins was asleep, he left the Safe House.

He soon mounted a motorcycle and, after skillfully changing to a fake license plate,

started the motorcycle and rushed toward Willy Banks's residence.

Yesterday afternoon, while taking a rented helicopter for sightseeing over Las Vegas, Hunter had already scouted the location in advance.

The intelligence Diana gave him, while not entirely complete, did include Willy Banks's residence.

Unlike Vera Tseleski, who didn't stay in Las Vegas for most of the year,

Willy Banks and his family had been operating casino businesses for over two generations.

His family had a massive estate in Las Vegas.

The estate was located in the southwest of Las Vegas, covering about seventy-four acres, which was nearly three hundred thousand square meters.

It was surrounded by the desert, yet the entire estate was filled with green plants.

Although most of it consisted of low lawns and gardens, there was no lack of various tall trees and flora.

One could imagine that to maintain the operation of such a massive estate in water-scarce Las Vegas, the cost of water alone would be no less than a million us dollars a year.

Of course, these weren't things Hunter needed to concern himself with.

The information Diana provided him showed that after Willy Banks inherited the casinos from his family, he began using various means—including commercial fraud, deception, and schemes—to continuously annex the casinos of partners and others.

He also knew he had offended many people, so the security for all his casinos, including the protection of the estate, was outsourced to a very powerful security company.

For this, Willy Banks needed to pay over seventy million us dollars every year.

And his expenditure was naturally worth it.

All of Willy Banks's casinos, and even the estate, had top-tier security in the entire US.

Conservative estimates suggested that at least over twenty retired military personnel, or even special forces, or Security Personnel with several years of mercenary experience, protected his safety day and night.

"Truly a troublesome fellow."

Driving the motorcycle, after more than half an hour, Hunter arrived near an estate located on the edge of the desert, about twenty kilometers away from the city area.

Because he had scouted the location in advance using a rented helicopter yesterday afternoon,

Hunter was familiar with the general layout of Willy Banks's estate.

He parked the vehicle about two li away from the estate.

Because the estate was surrounded by desert and yellow sand, there was no cover at all.

There was only one road leading toward the estate.

This meant Hunter needed to approach on foot.

He chose a high sand dune and, after climbing up, took out a night-vision telescope from his private space to quietly observe the main gate of the estate.

Although Willy Banks's estate was surrounded by desert,

as a super-rich man worth billions or even tens of billions of dollars, he naturally didn't lack money.

The entire estate was protected by perimeter walls.

The main gate of the estate was an alloy door over two meters high and at least five meters wide.

The lights made the main gate stand out remarkably in the dark night, but the situation inside could not be seen clearly.

It was also thanks to Hunter flying around this area in a rented helicopter during the day and taking the opportunity to memorize the general layout of the estate.

He remembered that inside the main gate of Willy Banks's estate, there was a guard room on each side.

There were many buildings within the entire estate.

However, most of the buildings were recreational facilities.

The true core building was a villa complex located in the center of the estate, covering an area of nearly two thousand square meters.

The information Diana gave Hunter wasn't complete.

Therefore, exactly how dangerous it was inside the estate would depend on Hunter himself once he entered.

After standing on the sand dune and observing for a while,

Hunter quickly chose a spot far from the main gate. He fast-walked across the desert and arrived outside a section of the estate's wall.

He looked closely at the wall; there were no high-voltage electric fences or surveillance cameras.

Instead, many pieces of broken glass were densely embedded on top of the wall.

This couldn't stop Hunter. He took a few steps back and performed a short sprint and jump.

With a slight push of his foot against the wall, Hunter vaulted directly over the nearly three-meter-high brick wall and landed inside the estate.

The moment he landed, the Sniper Laika Crossbow appeared in his hand.

He cautiously looked around, and after finding no danger, he made his way toward the helipad that wasn't too far from him.

Keeping his body low all the way, using the flowers and shrubs in the estate as cover, Hunter moved in a stop-and-go fashion.

Before long, with the help of the moonlight,

Hunter could see a helipad about a hundred meters away, surrounded only by a patch of low lawn, with a helicopter parked there.

And on the lawn about twenty meters away from that helipad, there were currently two large dogs tied to the left and right sides of the helicopter.

Although Hunter couldn't see clearly whether they were Malinois or German Shepherds, since they were from a team sent by a powerful security company,

they were likely raised to military dog standards, even if they weren't retired military dogs.

To avoid being discovered, Hunter decisively raised the Sniper Laika Crossbow in his hand.

He first aimed at the head of one of the dogs and immediately pulled the trigger.

*Swoosh!*

A specialized crossbow bolt shot out!

A hundred meters away, the large dog resting on the lawn seemed to sense something; it suddenly opened its eyes and lifted its head.

In the next instant, the crossbow bolt pierced through its neck.

"Whimper... whimper..."

Only having time to let out a low, mournful sound, the dog immediately twitched and soon lost all signs of life...
