Chapter 995: Saving His Father-in-law
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
As the former successor of the Huttons, Jace wasn’t an uninformed person. He knew that there were many industry experts in this world.
For example, there were some bigwigs in casinos who could tell the number on the dice based on the sounds they made or easily roll the number they wanted.
For example, people proficient with firearms could easily control the desired slot when turning the cylinder of the revolver.
But such people were extremely rare, and only those who had spent countless years using guns would be able to do it.
Thus, Jace had to suspect that Lucas had already mastered this technique to be able to get an empty shot every single time.
!!
Although Jace definitely didn’t want to believe that Lucas had such a terrifying ability, he definitely didn’t think that Lucas would be so lucky that he could perfectly avoid the bullets more than fifty times in a row!
Lucas smiled. “I don’t know what you’re talking about, but this gun is yours, and so are the bullets. Even your man has checked the gun. Do you still think that I tampered with it?
“I said it earlier. Maybe I’m lucky enough, and G.o.d doesn’t want me or my father-in-law to die under your despicable means. That’s why he’s been so kind to me and letting Lady Luck s.h.i.+ne on me.”
“Shut up!” Jace shouted furiously. He stared straight into Lucas’s eyes and expression to try and find out something.
But Lucas looked extremely calm, and there was even a trace of contempt in his eyes.
Jace was furious.
He would never believe in Lucas receiving G.o.d’s favor or that he was lucky. It must have been because Lucas had tampered with the gun or was really a firearms expert!
While Jace was hesitating about whether or not to continue making Lucas play Russian Roulette, the ringtone of a phone suddenly sounded in the room.
However, the ringtone didn’t belong to Jace but Lucas.
Lucas ignored it. The ringing was extremely short, and the caller hung up after only three seconds.
But after hearing the ringtone, there was a drastic change in Lucas’s expression as a menacing aura emanated from his body. It was as if he was a cat whose claws had been bound had transformed into a terrifying beast!
Standing in front of Lucas, Jace suddenly felt an immense horror that made his breathing stagnate and his face turn deathly pale.
“What… what are you trying to do? Are you trying to scare me? Don’t forget that two of your family members are still in my hands!” Jace shouted fiercely to regain control over Lucas.
Lucas smiled slightly. He suddenly raised the gun in his hand, pointed it at a gunman next to William, and pulled the trigger without hesitation!
Bang!
This time, a bright flash of light appeared at the muzzle, which had fired a bullet for a long time. The next moment, a bullet hole appeared in the head of the middle-aged gunman beside William!
The middle-aged gunman didn’t expect Lucas to suddenly shoot him, so he was completely caught off guard and lost his life.
The shot was too sudden. Not only did the middle-aged gunman fail to react, but even Jace and the other gunmen in the room were dumbfounded. They didn’t expect Lucas to shoot him!
But before the middle-aged gunman’s corpse fell to the floor and the rest could react, Lucas suddenly vanished right on the spot!
Whoos.h.!.+
The next second, Lucas’s figure appeared almost instantly next to the gunman at the windowsill. His movements were unbelievably fast!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Immediately afterward, the sounds of flesh being shot echoed in the room. Jace felt his vision turning blurry, and before he could get a clear glimpse of what was going on, he saw several figures being sent flying and landing in every corner of the room, sending bursts of dust flying into the air.
Once everything settled down, Jace was shocked to find that the five gunmen he had brought and his four personal bodyguards had already collapsed to the floor.
The only person still standing was Lucas!
There were several guns next to his feet on the floor, all of which were taken from the gunmen!
This scene agitated Jace greatly!
As an heir meticulously nurtured by the Huttons, Jace was naturally surrounded by top experts.
Jace’s gunmen were all top marksmen selected from the army. Not only did they have excellent marksmans.h.i.+p, but they also had top physiques and reflexes. Yet they were all knocked to the floor by Lucas before they could even shoot. They even got disarmed by Lucas!
The four personal bodyguards following Jace were also top experts the Huttons had carefully selected. They could easily deal with the experts of some big families, but they were just like weaklings who didn’t have the ability to resist at all. Lucas dealt with them all!
How is that possible?!
How can Lucas have such terrifying strength?
Jace was so stunned that he was completely speechless. It was as if he had seen a ghost.
Lucas didn’t bother to pay attention to Jace’s reaction but went straight to William. He quickly untied the rope on him and put him carefully on the floor.
He did a quick check and found that William was still alive and had merely pa.s.sed out from his injuries and being hung on the windowsill for a long time. His life wasn’t in danger for the time being.
After confirming that William was fine for now, Lucas heaved a long sigh of relief.
Fortunately, William was fine. Otherwise, Lucas wouldn’t know how to explain things to Cheyenne.
Lucas stood up and glared at Jace with a murderous look. “Now, it’s time to settle the score between us!”
