Bluebird did not deny Liam's abilities. However, she could not accept that just because Liam was exceptional, he could act so arrogant and say such conceited things.The competition for the Special Forces was not about the instructors' abilities. It was about the strength of each Special Forces team in their respective war zones!Bluebird was genuinely puzzled. How could the so-called 'Grandmaster Burrey' transform their Central Military Region's Special Forces team in just three short months? After all, whether it was physical fitness or military skills, both required time to accumulate."First place?"Even Gabriel was stunned when he heard Liam's words. Like Bluebird, he also found Liam's words somewhat unrealistic. Despite knowing that Liam's abilities were profound and unfathomable, he thought Liam would still not understand the complexity of the Special Forces competition. Competing among all the Special Forces teams in Hestia was truly not that simple!Initially, Gabri
After confirming the relevant situation, Gabriel prepared to return. Although the Special Forces squad competition was important, other matters in the Central Military District required his attention.Bluebird nodded slightly after hearing Gabriel's words.After arranging a few more things, Gabriel left the Special Forces squad’s base without giving the team members another chance to speak. The faces of the other squad members grew increasingly grim after his departure."Introduce your Special Forces squad and the competition," Liam said calmly, looking at Bluebird."Central Military District's Special Forces squad is named Nine Nether. There are currently twelve active members, and I am the captain, Bluebird..." Despite her dissatisfaction, Bluebird began to introduce the team. As the captain, she was efficient and straightforward, using no unnecessary words. In a few short sentences, she provided a clear introduction."The Special Forces squad competition involves Special Forc
Chimera looked up, his face livid as he spoke. "You don't even know how to use a gun, and you want to be our instructor?"He could not fathom what Gabriel was thinking.How could someone unfamiliar with Special Forces teams, unaware of the competition projects, and unable to use a basic firearm be chosen as their instructor? Was it solely because of Liam's reputed personal strength?However, what good was individual prowess in that situation? What could Liam accomplish in just three short months?Chimera was not the only one. The other members of the Special Forces team also displayed expressions of anger and disbelief.Liam's response to Chimera's accusation was calm and composed. He shook his head slightly and said, "I admit I don't know how to use a gun, but I can learn. Once I've learned, I can teach you.""What are you thinking? How can you even say such a thing?"Yeti, the sniper of the Nine Nether squad, widened his eyes in astonishment. Firearms proficiency required time
However, Liam did not respond to Yeti's words. He had already positioned himself behind the shooting platform and began fiddling with the firearms. The variety of guns on the platform was extensive. Liam picked up an assembled assault rifle and examined it."This is ridiculous!"Yeti's face was full of ridicule as he watched Liam's clumsy movements, clearly indicating it was his first time handling a gun. Barehanded, Yeti might not be a match for Liam, but Yeti had supreme confidence when it came to firearms. Not to mention, Liam's reaction made it obvious he was a complete novice with guns."Watch closely and see how the gun is assembled!"Yeti stepped behind the shooting platform and cast a cold glance at Liam. In the next moment, he grabbed the firearm components from the platform, and his hands moved swiftly. With a few crisp clicks, the gun parts flew together. In just 20 seconds, the assault rifle was assembled.Yeti could not help but sneer when he saw Liam still stan
Yeti stared at Liam with wide eyes in disbelief. Do you think you have what it takes to compete with me?"Yeti could not comprehend who had given Liam the courage to utter such bold words. Gabriel respectfully addressed Liam as 'Grandmaster Burrey', but did Liam truly believe himself to be a master?Liam spoke calmly, his expression unchanging. "Let's begin. Do you want to go first, or should I?"Yeti sneered at Liam's display of confidence. Shaking his head, he stepped up to the shooting platform. "Watch closely and learn," he said, glancing at Liam.On the shooting platform were various firearm components. Like last time, Yeti chose to assemble the most challenging assault rifle. He reached for the bare gun body, and his hands began to move swiftly.Yeti's speed was remarkable. Many parts were assembled without him even looking at them. His confidence stemmed from over a decade of intimate familiarity with firearms.Quickly, he loaded ten bullets into the magazine, and the
The gun parts suddenly trembled, seemingly pulled by an invisible force. Then, with a crisp 'click', the parts floated and landed on the bare rifle frame almost simultaneously.In less than a second, the assault rifle was fully assembled."Impossible!" Bluebird stood up abruptly in astonishment. The scene before her was beyond her imagination. How did the so-called 'Grandmaster Burrey' achieve that?Liam paid no attention to the reactions of the Nine Nether squad members beside him.Liam picked up the assault rifle after assembling it. However, his posture with the gun was strange, clearly untrained. He held the assault rifle with one hand, yet his grip was exceptionally steady, as if he were holding a delicate instrument, not moving a millimeter.As soon as Liam raised the gun, he pulled the trigger without hesitating.Bang! Bang! Bang!Gunfire rang out.Unlike Yeti's rhythmic and paused shooting, Liam fired ten shots in one go.The rifle's massive recoil seemed non-existen
Soon, Chimera joined the rest of the Nine Nether squad members.Bluebird's expression turned even more grim when she saw the anxious Chimera standing before her. "What on earth is going on?!"Chimera was supposed to be at the firing range, watching the targets. He was only allowed to return after receiving a notification, so why did he dare to come back on his own?Chimera, panting heavily, did not bother to explain much and answered quickly."Captain... Something went wrong during the target practice."Bluebird's face flashed with a hint of dissatisfaction. "What went wrong?" Chimera hurriedly handed the target paper in his hand to Bluebird. "Grandmaster Burrey's results... There's a problem!""A problem?"Bluebird's brows furrowed even more as she opened the crumpled target paper. Apart from the mark in the center left by Liam's lucky shot, the rest of the paper was clean!Bluebird looked up, her voice cold as she addressed Chimera. "One hit, ten points. What's wrong with t
The Nine Nether squad was in a state of utter bewilderment!They knew how difficult the shooting task was. Even the best Special Forces teams from other military districts scored only 97 points in the shooting competition!As for a perfect score of 100 points, the members of the Nine Nether Squad had never seen or even heard of such a feat. However, Liam achieved it in just 36 seconds using a method they had never seen!What was even more shocking was that just a few minutes ago, Liam was a complete novice who did not even know how to use a gun.Thinking back to everything that had just happened, the squad members could not help but tremble. They finally understood the meaning behind Liam's words!However, they also realized that even after Liam had learned to shoot, they might not be able to master it themselves.In the military, there is always admiration for the strong.If Liam's first jump from a high altitude shocked the Nine Nether squad members, then the latest situation
"You... what do you mean by that?"Upon hearing Liam's words, Sebastian was momentarily stunned. He had no idea what this young man was suddenly talking about!What did he mean by saying that once the bodyguards returned, Lloyd Group would cease to exist?Lloyd Group, which spanned across the entire Qyn Province with a powerful background, had been doing booming business lately. How could it just disappear like that?Sebastian knew that Liam’s idea was, in theory, quite good. After all, if Lloyd Group were to disappear, the Nosh family would suffer a huge blow, and they would have no time to cause trouble for them in the short term.However, the idea of Lloyd Group disappearing was nothing more than a beautiful fantasy. It was impossible!It was not just Sebastian.Charles and Janell were also stunned after hearing Liam’s words.To be honest, after experiencing the events earlier, their impression of Liam had already changed quite a bit.As the current head of the Hensworth fa
"Sigh…"Sebastian listened to Liam’s words, hesitated for a moment, and then sighed heavily before speaking, "But even if you want to take action, you should leave no trace!"Although he had not expected Liam to suddenly take such drastic measures, Sebastian still understood the situation to some extent. After all, even he, an old man, was so furious at Godfrey’s earlier words that he could barely contain himself. It was needless to say how someone like Liam, a young man, would feel!Moreover, Godfrey had been threatening Liam not long ago. But Sebastian still felt that Liam had not thought this through completely.Sebastian, after all, was the man who had built the Hensworth family’s foundation, and he had a certain ruthless streak in him. He believed that now that Liam had already taken action, he should not have let those two bodyguards go back."Leave no trace behind!" he thought. Even those two bodyguards should not be spared. Who knows, the truth of Godfrey’s death might s
"Ugh…"Godfrey's body shuddered, his eyes flashing with intense unwillingness. He struggled, as if trying to say something, but not a word escaped his lips.Finally—Bang!A dull thud echoed as Godfrey’s body slammed heavily onto the ground, lifeless.Even in his wildest dreams, he could not have imagined—In South City, someone would actually dare to kill him!In Godfrey's mind, with Union Finance's status in the Qyn Province, it was inconceivable that anyone would dare act against him. Liam had broken his leg earlier, which was already outrageous enough!Otherwise, he would not have arrogantly declared moments ago, threatening to grind Liam's bones to dust unless he fled immediately.Who could have guessed—From the very beginning, Liam had no intention of letting Godfrey go!What Union Finance?What powerful connections in Juneau?To Liam, none of that mattered in the slightest."What now?"Liam stood up, casually tossing the dagger to Bluebird before turning to face
In the very next moment…As soon as Charles and the others processed what was happening, they hurriedly turned to Liam, frantically urging, "Liam, you need to leave now! This time, you’ve really gotten yourself into trouble!"Even though Charles and his companions still had not figured out what exactly was going on in front of them, and they had no idea who the woman who suddenly appeared was or what her relationship with Liam might be, they were absolutely certain that this time, Liam had truly stirred up major trouble!Despite Liam and the mysterious woman who appeared behind him both displaying impressive skills, they were still only two people.When faced with United Financial, Liam wouldn’t stand a chance of resisting.Not to mention—breaking Godfrey’s leg had completely severed any chance of reconciliation with United Financial. With Godfrey’s vengeful nature, this would undoubtedly escalate to a fight to the death!In Charles’s eyes, Liam’s only option was to flee immedi
"Don’t! Don’t you dare interfere with me!"Sensing the bodyguards' movements, Godfrey suddenly snapped awake. His face twisted with fury, his eyes bloodshot as he roared, "Kill him for me! Kill him!"The searing pain in his leg distorted Godfrey's features, but none of it could mask the blazing anger inside him.He, Godfrey, had been beaten into this state by a mere useless ex-convict!Even the Lloyd Group, the former backer of that useless ex-convict, Liam, wouldn’t have dared to treat him this way!Who gave him the nerve to do this?At the instant Godfrey's order rang out, the two bodyguards who had initially rushed toward him abruptly turned around. They swiftly drew retractable batons from their waists and aimed them straight at Liam’s head!"Yes! Beat him to death for me! I want his skin peeled off!"Godfrey's body trembled as he screamed madly at the scene before him.However, just as the two batons were about to strike Liam from both sides...A flash of cold light strea
Charles could not just stand by.However, Liam had not continued speaking yet.The moment Godfrey heard Charles’s words, his eyes widened abruptly, and an exaggerated grin appeared on his face."Liam?"Godfrey extended a finger, pointing straight at Liam, his tone dripping with sarcasm as he asked, "You wouldn’t happen to be that Liam, famed in South City, would you?"It was clear he had heard of Liam’s exploits."I don’t know anything about being famed in South City."Liam looked at Godfrey calmly and said, "I am Liam Burrey.""Hahaha!"Hearing Liam’s response, Godfrey burst into uncontrollable laughter, clutching his stomach. His laughter was saturated with ridicule. "I can’t take it! You’re killing me!"I thought the Hensworth family found someone reliable to back them up, but it turns out it’s just a useless piece of trash!"And you dare spout nonsense about breaking my legs?"Shaking his head, his face was full of disdain. "Now it’s clear—you people have lost your mind
"Liam…"Seeing the scene before her, Valerie trembled.When she first heard Godfrey’s merciless words, her heart burned with grief and indignation. Yet, Valerie also understood that in the face of this situation, she did not have any viable solutions.The moment she realized Godfrey was from Union Finance, Valerie knew the Hensworth Group was nothing in comparison.What’s more, the Hensworth Group was currently on the brink of bankruptcy and had to rely on Godfrey for help!She never imagined Liam would step up at such a moment.After all, she had only asked Liam to pretend to be her boyfriend; there was no real relationship between them.And Union Finance wasn’t just powerful. Its background was incredibly mysterious.There were long-standing rumors that Union Finance in Qyn Province had connections to Juneau.Otherwise, the Nosh family could not have dominated the vast financial market and remained unshaken for so many years.Even if Liam might be capable of resolving this,
"I…"Hearing this, Charles was momentarily stunned.But in the end, he shook his head and said, "Mister Nosh, if Union Finance truly can't approve a loan for the Hensworth Group, then so be it."We'll figure out another way…"Charles's voice was low and heavy. At first, he genuinely believed Godfrey wanted to be with Valerie. But now it was clear Godfrey had no such intentions—he only wanted to toy with Valerie. How could Charles possibly agree to this?At the same time, his heart was filled with regret. He had almost become the one to push his daughter into a pit of fire!"You'll figure out another way?"Godfrey's expression darkened. He glared at Charles coldly and sneered. "Ten billion in loans, just to have Valerie play with me for a while! I really didn't know that any wh*re on the market could be this expensive!""If you don't agree, I'd like to see which other financial institution in Qyn Province would dare lend to you without Union Finance's approval!"The entire orde
"What’s wrong with you?"Hearing this, Godfrey furrowed his brows and said in a dissatisfied tone, "How long has it been? How could you not handle such a simple matter?""You still want that loan from the Hensworth Group approved, don’t you?"He immediately reprimanded Charles."Whether or not I’m with you is my business, it has nothing to do with my father!"Upon hearing this, Valerie immediately understood the implication behind Godfrey's words. Although she had just been angry with Charles, she could not allow Godfrey to speak to her father like that."Then what exactly are you thinking now?"Hearing Valerie's words, Godfrey turned his head, his eyes flashing with an inexplicable light as he looked at her. "The other day, I asked you to go out for drinks. Why didn’t you go?"The reason Godfrey had come in and started pressuring Charles was that he sensed that Valerie seemed uninterested in him.However, he had not expected Valerie to suddenly speak up at this moment."I did
