Even as Marx was retrieving the gun,he did not hesitate or stop. He marched forward and when he took the corner of the stairs, he opened fire but so had his enemies. But the difference was the speed.
Marx's bullets were almost ten times faster than their bullet. Marx was also faster than them. He had no defenses yet but he could see exactly where the bullets were targeting. Also, he had very good fleeing skills.
With Halo Steps, he had both air and ground advantage. His bullets reached the attackers first and wiped all those who were waiting at the entrance. He then activated Back Thrust and was pushed him and higher above the bullets reach.
Back Thrust propelled him forward and instantly, he was above the entrance. The bodies he had killed rolled forward down the stairs. Around ten of them. Marx then appeared at the entrance.
He opened fire and stood at the entrance. His main advantage over them was that he was fast. They were yet to reach the entrance and even for those who had their fingers on the triggers, they were slow to react for the bullets reached almost immediately after they were fired.
They died a painless death and around the fifty who had been waiting for Marx in the first floor all died as though they had been standing. Marx realized the power of the 45⁰ bullets and it amazed him.
The reason he had not used 45⁰ back on earth was because the enemy had weapons made almost of the same caliber as his. For these guys,the bullets easily pierced through them and reached a person or two behind the shot person.
In short they did not stand a chance as Marx walked over the dead bodies. He the walked to the other side and for those who had remained in the rooms and had tried to stage an opposition, were killed right at the doors.
Marx had hesitated when in a room he saw five men coming out fully naked. He had hesitated 1. Because of the risen huge 'excaliburs' that made his eyes almost pop out and 2. Because he saw the single female on a bed in the room. She had her face plastered with white cream like fluid.
She was completely naked and her legs were open such that with a glance, Marx was able to see the two 'holes' flexing in and out like they had just been dug out. Her face showed that she was yet to have enough of whatever she was having with the five men.
"Just get rid of the distraction already. I might get turned off," the girl was petite but one thing about her was that she was beautiful. The men glared at Marx as they all marched towards him.
Marx's eyes kept falling on the five rods that shook as the men marched forward. He could have thought of this of a rape case but it seemed that they were in 'it' all together. So this was how they had degraded their morals in these regions.
He fired five shots at the men and sighed. Just how dumb were they to face a gun with not a single weapon? They really did not use their brains to think but the huge things between their legs. He was in a dilemma after killing them.
The lady was now panicking. She was screaming and was heading towards a closet. Marx thought that she was just prostitute and he let her pick clothes and leave.
She removed a red dress and when she turned, she fired bullets from a pistol she was hiding inside the dress. Marx had had thoughts of sparing her but he just shook his head as he declared that he was going to leave no survivors.
He wasted a shot on her and he walked away. Even her shooting accuracy was beyond rookie level. It seemed that it was not only between her legs that had holes but maybe her brain had an even larger one.
That was the last room on this floor. He stopped at the stairs and sighed.
"I know that you saw that. Please forgive my rude eyes." Marx said as he waited for the gun to charge.
His mind went back to the scene he had seen. He was still shaken by the giant excalibers. It haunted him for obvious reasons. The last time he had awakened was back with Mia.
She was actually the only one who would just awaken him easily. He slapped his face and retrieved his gun again. This was not the time to be thinking about when he last awakened.
He marched upwards the stairs and it seemed that these guys only had one strategy. Wait for him everytime at the entrance and shoot at sight.

When Dan approached the last room in the first floor, he realized that the kid was probably undergoing trauma. That scene was enough to traumatize someone like Marx who had never even had sex in his life at his age.
That was to mean that he had never known that men could all come together and gang bang on lady. But he could get over the acts but not the giant rods between their legs. Dan closed the door and chuckled.
If the lady was dead, then it was to mean that the lady had attacked him. He could not help but commend the kid. Virgins like him could stay in a state of shock for few seconds.
If only Dan knew that the kid he was thinking about had not even had his man awakened after seeing all he saw, he would think of him as impotent but Marx was faithful. Only one person could awaken his man. And that person was dead.

Marx grossed over the second, third, and fourth floor. But on his way, he had gotten bullet shots. Two on his thighs and one on his chest. But he was still in perfect condition.
It happened in the fourth floor. The guns were powerful than he had expected. They were half as fast as his bullets. He had a 1% chance of evading his bullets which made it that he had a 2% chance of dodging the bullets.
He had miscalculated and he received the first shot on the right thigh and another one on the left thigh as he was evading. He had hesitated when a kid stood in front of him with a gun and the kid shot him at the chest.
This had reaffirmed his thought to leave no survivors no matter whether it was an infant. He killed the kid who had been wearing a white vest and black short. Even if he killed the kids, there were still many more in other places who were going through the same.
He was doing this for it was a mission but he did not enjoy what he was seeing. He was hesitant but he still ended up killing the kid. He somehow felt that if he completely wipe this organization, he would not have the heavy heart.
He wanted to make sure that other kids were not going to get introduced to these acts. Some people were merciless and could kill the kids without hesitating. The real reason why Marx took the bullet was so that it would be a reminder of the kid.
He made it that it was a punishment for killing the kid. He took a step forward and he squatted next to the kid. The kid died with his eyes open and Marx closed the eyes and vowed in his heart.
He was not just doing this because it was a mission anymore. If no one stopped them, more kids could still suffer the same fate. Marx stood up and headed towards the stairs. He was in perfect condition for he was sure that he could take down more.
But his agility had received a massive amount. He had thought that he could get out unscathed but that was just wishful thinking. He felt the itching pain as he walked and the chest pain as he breathed.
He was about to take a step to the fifth floor when Dan appeared. Marx removed the helmet and glanced at Dan.
"Kiddo, I appreciate that you are a decisive person. Many people would have died by now if they were in your position. But it should not bother you about the kid. They are beyond redemption.
" Once a kid witnesses all this, he gets affected psychologically. What you can do is to make sure that none of them leaves this world without their revenge exacted.
"I know that you took the bullet as a punishment for killing him. But do you think that that is enough to justify you killing him? Well, if it helps put your mind at peace, you can think of it that way," Dan said. The words were enough to shake someone's will.
" I don't regret anything. If I did not come here, they would still be alive and I would still be at my room doing nothing. I don't need to justify my actions to anyone. For those who dare to cross me, their fate has been sealed.
"It does not matter who you are. Whether it is a kid or an old man. I know that there is only one rule in the situation I am in. The moment I chose to be an assassin, it was kill or be killed.
" I have been in hundreds of life and death situations. And in all those, I have done things that I should feel bad because I have done them but I have never felt bad. I won't start now.
"I took the bullet because of my recklessness. The bullet is to remind me never go easy on my enemy. It also serves as a reminder that there are kids being exploited here. But I cannot save them all. All I can do is to make sure that no more kids are to go through such," Marx said.
Midway his speech, his mind drifted back to the sandworms. He had killed hundreds of foetuses. That was the first time he stopped to think about his rashness. He knew that he could not get over it. He looked at Dan and smiled.
"I don't know whether I regret it or not but it was my fault that day. If I had realized it earlier, I would have given answer when she could hear," Marx said as his smile faded to a sad one.
"It's time to end this darned mission."
