Reboot: Mechanic

Chapter 115 Target Practice

Mary was completely nonchalant after seeing Layn plopping to the ground, lifeless. She already knew he was going to attempt to kill her again, but she didn’t bother.

Her attitude might seem nonchalant, but she was wary from the start and was ready to strike the moment he made a move.

She merely waited and pretended to relax because she wanted to see how long Layn could remain composed while torturing his former subordinate.

“What a shame that you still chose this route. If you had only decided to torture this Kyle person, then I might have played with you a little longer.” Mary sheathed her dagger and shook her head.

She then glanced at Kyle, who was coughing and wiggling around. His bottom part was filled with blood, and his other flesh was nearly burnt to a crisp.

However, that wasn’t even the worst part as his face was turning green from the lack of oxygen, in addition to the toxic substance that is now entering his body.

Without gas mask protection and a strong physique to withstand the toxic substance in the atmosphere, it wouldn’t take long for a person to die.

“K-K-Kill me please.” Kyle clenched tightly on his throat, hoping to stop the toxic substance from entering his body as he begged Mary to kill him.

“Kill you?” Mary raised an eyebrow and chuckled softly.

“Had it been me that fell to your hand, would you have listened to my request?” She then asked amusingly, finding it hilarious that enemies like them always thought they would get a swift and clean death upon failure.

Ignoring the unsightly appearance of Kyle, Mary smiled and called out, “Nathan, I’ll have another challenge for you. From that position, let’s see if you can aim at this person’s head.”

A few seconds later after her calling, Shi Tian walked out from the back of the Iron Sentinel and asked, “Did you know I was here the whole time?”

That’s right, he was hiding behind ever since he heard a loud blast from the traps that Kyle had triggered. And when he came out, he saw this scene and decided it was best to not interrupt Mary.

After all, Mary seemed to be having a thrill from deflecting these attackers.

“If I can’t even tell whether someone was spying on us or not, then do you think I would have been assigned as your trainer?” Mary responded with a question instead.

Shi Tian nodded his head, finding her response logical.

“Who are these people?” He then asked, pointing at the three corpses and the nearly dying person.

“They’re Night Intruders, specialized in targeting people that are camping in the wilderness for their loot.” Mary casually said and explained the gist of what happened while he was still asleep.

“I see… then I must say these Night Intruders have lost their mind to choose to attack you. Just the Iron Sentinel alone should have been enough information to be cautious of us.” Shi Tian exclaimed, ridiculing this group of people for their dumb decision.

Meanwhile, Kyle, who was already suffering in unimaginable pain, heard Shi Tian’s words and truly wanted to smack him.

‘Do you need to gloat even further at a dying enemy?’ Kyle cursed inwardly.

Alas, because his gas mask was taken off by his deceased boss, Mary could see his facial expression.

And seeing that grudgeful look of his, Mary clicked her tongue and gave him another fierce kick on his private part.

“What makes you think a defeated loser like you can make that look?” Mary sneered coldly and gave him another kick just because she could.

Kyle grunted in pain, and could only wiggle his body in pain. He was no different than a worm that could only wiggle around slowly.

“Anyway, take this, and let me see you aim from there.” Mary grabbed the gun that the deceased Layn was trying to use and threw it to Shi Tian.

Shi Tian held the gun and was dumbfounded by her action.

It seemed like human life to Mary was truly worth nothing. But then again, they were enemies, so he would react in the same way as well.

These enemies wanted to kill them for their loot, so why would they still act like some saint and spare them? That would just be the most ridiculous action and thought process ever.

Leaving an enemy alive was no different than sending them back to call for their allies to get revenge. It would be beyond troublesome at that point.

Holding the gun tightly, Shi Tian understood Mary wanted to see if he could be cold-blooded or not, and whether he had sharpshooter skills.

After all, he proclaimed to kill a few variants of the Gilaso monster, so if his aim was trash, then there might be doubt rising in her mind.

“Do you want me to just blast his head off?” Shi Tian asked, raising the gun and aiming at Kyle.

“Hmm, actually never mind.” Mary suddenly thought about it and shook her head. 𝐞𝗼𝐯𝐞𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

“You don’t want me to shoot anymore?” Shi Tian raised an eyebrow in confusion.

And even Kyle was confused by Mary’s sudden change.

Wasn’t she going to finish him off?

Mary chuckled a bit and kicked Kyle on the chest, turning his body around.

And in Shi Tian’s perspective, Kyle was now lying in a horizontal line.

“Alright, the view should be much better now.” Mary clasped her hands in joy, acting as if she had done an achievement.

Kyle also wanted to scream in pain with the constant torment, but Mary kicked the hand that was cut off from Layn and stuffed it in his mouth, preventing him from grunting.

“Now that this loser could no longer interrupt me, I shall continue with what I was originally planning. Nathan, you shall shoot at whatever place I point at, and this can be considered another test, a target practice to be precise. So make sure you do your best and shoot it on the first try.” She then commanded.
