Chapter 1243 The Showdown
Bam!
Just when both of them were standing at the museum entrance, a gunshot rang out all of a sudden.
Before Sasha could even comprehend what was going on, Kingston had grabbed and pulled her to
hide behind a lion statue.
“Be careful! He’s already here!” he yelled at the top of his lungs.
Sasha’s face turned white as a sheet. Holding her head and cowering behind the lion statue, her entire
body trembled in fear.
Bam!
Just as expected, the moment they took cover, the bullet shot right into the museum.
After an agonizing cry was heard, she saw the usher who was standing at the entrance collapse onto
the ground.
“Murder! Murder!”
“Ahhh…”
Screams rang out from everywhere.
In a few short seconds, the museum erupted in utter chaos.
Crouching in shock, Sasha stared at the tumultuous museum before turning her attention to the car that
was a short distance away.

For a split second, she was torn between two minds.
Coincidentally, Kingston suggested, “All right, Sasha, it’s safe now. Let’s leave this place quickly.”
When he saw that the gunshots were concentrated on the museum, he led her out at once and wanted
to use the opportunity to help her escape.
However, it would have been better if he hadn’t said a word. The moment he did, she turned around
and glared intently at him with her obsidian eyes.
“Why do you want to take me away? Since I have foiled his plans, aren’t you supposed to kill me? Why
do you want me to leave with you?”
“I…”
Kingston was at a loss for words.
When Sasha saw his response, she no longer hesitated. Springing to her feet, she dashed back into
the museum.
“Sasha! Sasha! Come back!” Pale in shock, Kingston had no choice but to run after her while calling
out at the same time.
In truth, there was really something fishy going on inside.
The gunshots in the museum were fired by Eddie when he realized that his plan was stymied. In his
rage and frustration, he had started the hunt early. The prey this time was none other than Sebastian.
“That old b*stard! He does have some smarts, after all.”
Watching everything from the security control room upstairs, Sebastian almost flipped over his table in
anger when he saw the situation going out of his control.
When Devin saw the same, his expression drastically changed.
“If he has already predicted our plan, that means the museum is no longer safe. Considering how
ruthless he is, he must have even planted nuclear wave bombs inside.”
“Huh?”
Karl broke into cold sweat the moment he heard Devin’s comment.
“Isn’t that terrible? With so many people here, it would definitely be a catastrophe if the bombs
exploded. How many people have to die?”
He expressed his unwillingness to see an incident like that happen.
In truth, no one wanted it to happen, regardless of whether they were from Devin’s special squad or the
Hayes Corporation team from SteelFort.
That was the difference between them and the cruel Eddie.
Finally, Devin led his squad into the museum and swiftly spread out. Their objective was to evacuate
the crowd and rapidly locate the explosives that had been planted.
As for the men from SteelFort, they were in charge of eliminating the enemy.
Before Karl left, he reminded his boss, “Mr. Hayes, stay here and don’t go out no matter what. From the
way Eddie walked into our trap willingly, he must have something else up his sleeve waiting for us.
Also, with regards to Mrs. Hayes, don’t worry about it. Between Mr. Devin and me, we will definitely
rescue her.”
We have no other choice. In terms of combat prowess, the boss is the weakest among the three of us.

brains of our operation. Or else, we might lose everything in the end.
After leaving a few of the elites from SteelFort with Sebastian, he led the rest out at once.
Meanwhile, Sebastian continued to stay in the security control room.
Watching the screens, he saw both sides clash in the museum with greater intensity. Bullets were flying
all over the place while bodies were dropping like flies.
At the end of the day, Devin’s squad was made up of actual special forces.
The moment they charged out with their assault rifles, they counterattacked with great ferocity. As they
swept through the museum, they gunned down many of their fearsome enemies.
“Evacuate everyone! Logan, take some men and make sure everyone leaves safely.”
Devin’s goal wasn’t to kill as many enemies as he could but to save the innocents from being
slaughtered by the enemy.
Having received his instructions, Logan led his men and swooped into the lobby downstairs. The
moment they arrived, they began evacuating the distraught guests.
Meanwhile, Karl and his men battled with equal ferocity.
Although they weren’t army regulars, their combat prowess was not inferior in any way.
One by one, they stole through the darkness like phantoms, only to appear behind their enemy to either
crack their necks or blow their brains apart. In less than five minutes, Sebastian saw that they had
disposed of many of their foes on the screen.
