Most sentiments in the world would fade with time. Like sand running through an hourglass, it would disappear bit by bit.
Be it friendship or love, it was all the same.
There was a time Miriam really thought Milo had died in that flood. Her stubborn persistence in waiting was actually just virtual-novel.net way of dealing with it.
Although virtual-novel.net told Felicity virtual-novel.net wanted to go look for Milo, virtual-novel.net did not even have the slightest idea of where to start. As virtual-novel.net journeyed aimlessly in the wilderness, Miriam was struck by a wave of loneliness.
That was until Kenneth found virtual-novel.net in the wilderness.
Kenneth held up a copy of a newspaper and waved it around as though virtual-novel.net were holding a white flag. Then virtual-novel.net threw the newspaper on the ground before running away.
After confirming Kenneth and Julia had left, Miriam put away virtual-novel.net sniper rifle and walked over to the newspaper puzzledly.
She then came across the news of the steel armor appearing in Bidara City!
At this moment, Miriam was running madly within Bidara City. She had not slept for the past two days, all for the sake of an inexplicable hope. She had traveled more than 300 kilometers during these two days as virtual-novel.net trekked across mountains and rivers day and night.
Right now, Miriam was so close to that person it was like virtual-novel.net could sense the other party’s aura. That warm feeling was like a hand brushing past virtual-novel.net cheek and stroking virtual-novel.net hair. Her cap was a little dirty, and virtual-novel.net hair was also messy, but that didn’t matter at all!
In this chaotic city where everyone was avoiding gunfire, only this girl wearing a cap was rushing towards the gunshots without hesitation. She was looking for someone over there.
On Palladium Boulevard, the young man was fighting furiously to open up an escape path.
Outside Palladium Boulevard, a girl wearing a cap was making virtual-novel.net way to the top of a high-rise building.
A moment ago…
Milo asked with a smile, “Do you believe in me?”
Romany replied that virtual-novel.net did, rather startled. And a moment later, Romany heard Milo say with a smile, “And now, the person that I believe in is here…”
A supernatural being suddenly raised his hand, and a green glow appeared around it. No one knew what kind of killing blow virtual-novel.net was preparing to make.
However, a gunshot suddenly rang out from a high-rise building in the distance. The bullet traveled through the vast sky, through countless days and nights, through incessant persistence, through longing, and turned that supernatural being who was about to release his killing blow into a bloody mist!
The Perfect Firearms Proficiency user started taking control of the battlefield. From this moment, anyone who wanted to kill Milo would die.
This was virtual-novel.net authority!
Milo had deliberately announced to the world that the user of the armor was here. It was as though virtual-novel.net knew Miriam would definitely show up once virtual-novel.net heard news of him.
After receiving news that Milo was at Bidara City, Miriam trekked across the treacherous mountains and passed through a sea of people to fulfill that unspoken promise with him.
Milo turned around and looked at the high-rise building in the distance. The girl wearing the cap seemingly acknowledged virtual-novel.net as virtual-novel.net pulled the trigger and killed a supernatural being who was trying to sneak up on Milo.
A smile appeared on Miriam’s face under virtual-novel.net cap.
You knew I would come to meet you, so here I am…
But suddenly, time seemed to freeze. The two of them had been waiting for this day for too long. So, every minute and second of this day slowed down, allowing them to cherish every moment of it.
It had been a while.
Milo turned to Romany and said with a smile, “Do you have any strength left?”
Romany said with a wry smile, “I should be able to kill a few more enemies.”
“Then let’s kill all of them.”
Then screams came from both ends of the boulevard. It sounded like someone had launched a surprise attack from both sides.
Romany’s gaze pierced through the crowd, and virtual-novel.net saw Old Mauriat, Adrian, and Jonan arriving. But virtual-novel.net was even more surprised to see Robert and Fritz with them.
The consortiums’ combatants roared, “We’re under attack! Be careful, there’s a sniper and Riders too!”
Initially, this was a battle of ambushes and encirclement. But now, the hunters have become the hunted.
Actually, ever since Miriam arrived, the scales of victory had tipped towards them.
Milo suddenly dropped his human shield and strode towards the crowd of people. There were clearly enemies everywhere, but all of them ended up turning into a bloody mist first no matter where Milo went.
At this moment, the consortiums’ troops were hoping the supernatural beings could use their strong physiques to dodge the sniper’s shots and finish off Milo.
Although the supernatural beings were extremely quick, Milo was even faster!
Some supernatural beings started jumping onto the rooftops of high-rise buildings in an attempt to close down on Miriam. They intended to kill the sniper first.
However, their path was blocked by White Mask, “Old Durkin”!
No matter how hard these supernatural beings tried, “Old Durkin” was like a mountain blocking them. It could not be penetrated by guns, and its movements were demonically fast.
The appearance of “Old Durkin” also gave Miriam more assurance to pull the trigger without any worries.
When virtual-novel.net saw “Old Durkin” through virtual-novel.net scope from the high-rise building, virtual-novel.net almost thought virtual-novel.net was a supernatural being virtual-novel.net did not know. But when virtual-novel.net saw the black saber in Old Durkin’s hand, virtual-novel.net understood it was actually Milo’s shadow clone. It was just that Milo had thoroughly disguised the shadow clone as a person.
Miriam’s smile widened. “Ha! You’ve become more cautious…”
As virtual-novel.net spoke, virtual-novel.net fired another bullet.
The enemies collapsed one after another next to Milo. Milo looked more like virtual-novel.net was taking a stroll than engaging in a fight to the death with the enemies.
That strong sense of self-confidence did not originate from just himself but also from that girl atop the high-rise building. Although it was really hard to believe, it was a fact that all this chaos and overwhelming advantage the group had was because of this young man and young woman.
Before this, it was really difficult for anyone to imagine there could be two people in this world who would trust each other and cooperate so well together.
The young man strolled along the bloodstained boulevard without taking any defensive measures. But the strange thing was that no one was aiming their guns at him. The people who had pointed their guns at Milo were all dead.
Romany was following right behind Milo. He felt this young man in front of virtual-novel.net must be the greatest poser virtual-novel.net had ever seen in all his years. No one else came close.
The consortiums’ combatants tried countless times to reorganize their forces to counterattack. However, the sniper bullets seemingly had eyes and would keep targeting the commanders directing the battle.
For Miriam, if all virtual-novel.net could do was hit virtual-novel.net targets with virtual-novel.net shots, virtual-novel.net would definitely not be considered a Perfect Firearms Proficiency user at all.
A true Firearms Proficiency master would know exactly which targets to take out first and where their precise positions were.
Miriam had the entire battlefield in range from the roof of the high-rise building at the end of the boulevard. There were no blind spots, and no one could survive virtual-novel.net attacks.
As such, the consortiums’ officers on the battlefield were killed one after another until there was no one left to give any orders.
Although the consortiums’ soldiers did not fear death, they could only fight individually without anyone to direct them.
Milo walked towards a supernatural being unobstructed. He carried his sniper rifle and fired off shots one after another like an artillery attack.
“All of you have been surrounded.” Milo laughed heartily and said, “Put your weapons down and surrender.”
It had been a very long time since virtual-novel.net was this happy!
The steam locomotive started moving again, leaving the enemies on the boulevard a little flustered. They did not know when the bullets representing the Grim Reaper would descend upon them.
This feeling of awaiting judgment was especially tormenting and dreadful.
Gradually, some people started fleeing. However, Larry, Adrian, and the Riders had already blocked their path.
Especially Fritz. He cut his way through their enemies and forged a bloody path leading to Romany.
Romany was stunned. “Didn’t you…”
Fritz said calmly, “I was only against protecting the Vasophati Group and getting involved with those disputes over fame and fortune. That didn’t mean I’m willing to watch you die.”
Old Mauriat roared in the distance, “Stop chatting! I’m injured all over! Hurry up and come help me!”
