Chapter 30: Evil Shadow
"Henry, why haven't you made a move yet!"
Outside the old Miller family estate, a hidden location displayed the situation within the Miller family on a screen.
Sofia was shocked when she saw it, realizing that at some point, the Miller family estate had been filled with surveillance equipment. Every move of the Miller family members was under Henry's observation.
Before she could accuse him, she saw the arrival of the Evil Shadow assassins, forcing the Miller family members to kneel together on the ground.
Seeing that the Evil Shadow assassins were about to take action, Henry remained cold and indifferent. Sofia couldn't help but become angry. "You have so many subordinates, and those from Evil Shadow in the Miller family estate are no match for you, but you are not doing anything"
Not far behind, hundreds of fully armed soldiers, their eyes concealed behind dark sunglasses, stood silently, holding assault rifles of an unidentifiable model in their hands.
"Why did the general choose to save them? Are you deaf? Didn't you hear what the old man from the Miller family said?" Stefano arranged for his elite subordinates to stay behind in Ravinia after seizing the millennium blood ginseng. He hurried back to Henry's side upon hearing Sofia's continued accusations, growing more and more annoyed as he scolded her.
Sofia's voice faltered, and then she defended herself, "Regardless of anything, they are still members of the Miller family. I believe my Grandfather. He was only deceiving Evil Shadow, everything he said was false."
"All members of the Miller family?" Henry said coldly. "Then what about my sister, Isabella? She is also a member of the Miller family."
"When Elena tortured her, where was the Miller family? Still hoping to establish connections with the Lewis family! It's better to save a few dogs than to save them!"
Henry's eyes were cold, and if he didn't want Isabella to wake up and seek revenge personally, he would never let these people from the Miller family go.
Now, Evil Shadow is fighting against the Miller family, and he looks on, feeling amused!
"How cold-blooded are you!?" Sofia's face turned red with anger, and she ran out, ready to go inside the Miller family's old mansion.
Henry just watched silently; his eyes filled with a faint mockery and amusement.
Sure enough, after running a few steps, Sofia realized that Henry had no intention of chasing after her, which made her embarrassed, and she turned back.
"Don't think that I value you and will go with you to save people," Henry said indifferently. "If you think so, then you're ignorant."
If it weren't for Uncle Carlo's reasons, he wouldn't even bother with someone like Sofia.
"No, no!"
A cry of despair came from the screen, followed by a continuous stream of screams.
Sofia glanced at the screen once, her face turned pale, and she quickly averted her gaze.
Blood splattered, and several members of the Miller family were lying in a pool of blood, including Master Miller, Simone, and Fabio.
Henry's gaze was indifferent as he took a glance and walked out.
"General, they've only just chopped off one of their arms. Shouldn't we wait a little longer?"
Stefano's eyes flickered with cruelty, feeling a sense of satisfaction.
If it weren't for the fact that they were indeed members of the General's family, he would have wanted to have them all killed!
They were nothing but beasts! He felt like he shouldn't say that, after all, the General also had the blood of the Miller family...
"The game has just begun, and the interest should be taken slowly. If we don't leave them a glimmer of hope, how can we make them more desperate?" Henry said coldly.
In the courtyard, Fabio's face was covered with tears and snot, and intense pain radiated from his arm. "Dad, my arm hurts so much."
Simone was also pale, clenching his teeth and unable to speak. He feared that if he opened his mouth, he would scream.
"Complaining that your arm hurts? Your arm is right here, how could it hurt?" Evil Shadow killer raised Fabio's arm and shook it, then threw it far away.
After a few rolls, the severed arm was stepped on by a foot, and after a pause, the owner of the foot stomped down, cutting the arm into two pieces.
The Miller family members and the Evil Shadow killer looked over and realized that a big group of people had come in at some point.
All the soldiers raised their rifles, stern and silent.
Stefano kicked away his trampled arm and stepped aside.
"Henry!" Master Miller and Simone, father and son, exclaimed simultaneously.
"Are you Henry?"
The Evil Shadow assassins quickly dispersed, each finding cover. The female captain hid as well, her voice sharp as she asked, showing no fear.
If these soldiers had started shooting as soon as they entered, the assassins would have suffered heavy casualties.
Now, with cover, the female captain felt more confident.
The Evil Shadow assassins moved with strange agility. Despite facing assault rifles, their shooting speed couldn't compare to the masters’ quick dodges.
After causing so much chaos in Freton, they had clashed with the military before.
With the assassins on the scene, it wasn't difficult to handle over a hundred fully armed soldiers.
Henry smiled, remaining silent. His gaze swept over the kneeling Miller family.
After Simone's face turned pale and then red, he finally managed to force a smile. "Henry, you've finally come. Sofia informed you, right? Quickly kill these assassins."
Master Miller slowly stood up, his arm broken and his shoulder in severe pain. However, it didn't hinder him from wearing a serious expression befitting an elder. "Henry, you're too late. They've cut off your grandpa's arm!"
"It's not too late to make up for it now. Eliminate these Evil Shadow and then send Grandpa to the hospital. Your grandpa is getting old, and the Miller family will rely on you young people in the future."
Saying this, Master Miller took a few steps forward, intending to position himself behind Henry.
During the upcoming firefight, he, as an old man, wouldn't be able to dodge easily. However, as he walked, he noticed something was amiss. The soldiers that Henry had brought with him were moving their gun barrels along with his movements, constantly aimed at him.
"Henry, what does this mean?"
"Are you my grandpa?" Henry nodded, repeating the question. "You dare say you're my grandpa?"
Master Miller grew furious, gripping his cane, ready to strike.
Two gunshots rang out, freezing Master Miller in place. His cane was shattered by the bullets, and there was a bullet hole just centimeters away from his toes, still emitting heat.
The warning was evident. He suspected that if he took one more step forward, the next bullet would hit him.
Master Miller's facial muscles twitched, and he slowly forced a gentle smile.
"Henry, have you forgotten? When you were young, grandpa used to buy you toys."
Henry sighed. "Yes, I know. That's why the bullet from just now didn't hit you directly."
"I guess I killed too many on the battlefield..."
"There are countless people, but; when it comes to cold-blooded and unscrupulous means, we are far behind compared to you elders."
Master Miller froze for a moment and forced a smile, saying, "You are still young and there are some things you don't understand. We, the older generation, also have our difficulties."
"Now the most important thing is to deal with the assassins of Evil Shadow. You have been away from Freton city for seven years, so you have no idea how formidable Evil Shadow is. Let's focus on resolving these matters at the old mansion first, then we can discuss together how to deal with the other assassins of Evil Shadow."
