Chapter 1200: Word had spread
BOOM!
The explosion made the ground shake, taking everyone off guard except Hera. As the dust and rubbles descended on the great hall, Hera slid forward to the nearest soldier within her reach. Taking advantage of their shock, she pulled the rifle strapped around his body.
"Heh." A maniacal grin plastered across her face. "Too late to switch sides now."
The second those words rolled out of her lips, she quickly slipped her finger into the trigger. With the man’s finger still on the trigger, she pulled it and shot him straight to his chin. Hera quickly jumped from the floor, holding the rifle, and let it slide off the soldier’s body.
"She’s armed!" a soldier yelled, snapping back to the current lapse upon hearing the deafening gunfire. But alas, because of the sudden explosion, everything in their surrounding was now fogged by dust. Before they knew it, all they saw was sparks from a direction, taking them down in one shot.
The sound of gunfire continuously rang in the great hall. Along with it were shouts from all directions, knowing there was only one way for them to communicate.
"Protect the madam!"
"Take her away!"
"Don’t let them get away!"
"Your bandanas!"
"Hera Cruel..." Florence shuddered in both anger and shock before a hand suddenly grabbed her shoulder. When she looked back, she nearly twisted his hand, but then saw it was one of her soldiers.
