“What the hell happened!”
Inside the Baccarat Farm Estate, a middle-aged man was playing chess with the estate owner when suddenly two loud booms came from outside.
A bodyguard answered in a low voice.
The middle-aged man stood up abruptly and slapped him across the face, “Useless! What are we paying you for! Hurry up and check it out! If anything goes wrong, Miss Lopez will have you dead without a place to be buried!”
“Yes, Brother Beaumont!”
The bodyguard covered his swollen face and hurried toward the direction of the gate.
“There are surveillance cameras here.”
The manor owner picked up a remote control nearby and pressed a button on the TV a short distance away.
“Crap! Where’s the gate!”
He was initially stunned, then rubbed his eyes, “Damn. Where’s my iron gate that weighed over a hundred pounds?”
“Why is the wall down too?”
He turned to the bodyguard behind him and asked, “Was there an earthquake?”
He was playing chess with the man now known as Brother Beaumont and hadn’t felt any tremors at all.
So what happened to the gate and the wall?
“Isn’t that the gate, on the ground?”
Thunder Leocadia took off his sunglasses and looked at the dark object on the screen.
It was nighttime, and the farm’s surveillance wasn’t very advanced, so it was difficult to see things clearly.
Once pointed out by him, the manor owner observed carefully and slapped his thigh, “What the hell is going on! How did the perfectly fine gate fall over? And why did my wall collapse?”
The gate was newly custom-made this year, and the wall was newly built.
Even the farm estate was newly opened not long ago.
He opened it following the trend after seeing others making money, but no one visited his place.
Three months passed, and just when the manor owner could barely hang on, a group of people dressed in black came along.
They brought with them three hundred thousand in cash, demanding to rent the entire farm estate.
Seeing the god of wealth arrive, the manor owner naturally treated them with great enthusiasm, handing over the management of the entire farm estate to these people in black.
All he had to do was look after the case filled with three hundred thousand in cash.
“Brother Beaumont, the people Miss Lopez wants have arrived!”
The bodyguard hurried back and gasped out the message.
“Great! Where are those three people? Why didn’t they call me?”
Thunder Leocadia took out his mobile phone and found no missed calls.
“Boss, the guy came by himself!”
The bodyguard pointed toward the location of the gate: “Bro, they’re all dead!”
Thunder Leocadia’s heart tightened, and he drew a dart from behind his waist, “What the hell happened?”
“You… What kind of people are you…”
Seeing the box of hidden weapons, the manor owner collapsed to the ground, scared out of his wits.
He had seen enough movies to know that those who carried boxes of hidden weapons were definitely bad guys.
“Sorry, but I will have someone burn your money for you.”
Thunder Leocadia walked up to the manor owner, crouched down, and stuffed the sharp end of the dart into the manor owner’s mouth.
“No… Please… have mercy…”
The manor owner knelt on the ground, his cries muffled and unintelligible, tears in his eyes.
Thunder Leocadia gave a faint smile, with one hand gently blocking the manor owner’s view.
Blood splattered everywhere.
The manor owner’s body slumped to one side, lifeless.
It is said that a person’s eyes are the only evidence after death.
Thunder Leocadia was superstitious; he didn’t want to be haunted by vengeful spirits.
After doing all this, he wiped the blood off the box of hidden weapons, picked up the case filled with three hundred thousand, and strode toward the door.
The group had just left the room when they saw two bodyguards falling from the sky, landing hard on the ground.
They twitched once and died immediately.
“Are you Thunder Leocadia?”
Around the corner, Julius Reed walked in from a small path and clapped his hands.
“How do you know my name?”
Thunder Leocadia looked around warily, muttering softly, “Is there an ambush?”
“No, there’s no one within a kilometer; he’s all by himself.”
An employee spoke up.
“Is your name that hard to know?”
Julius Reed, with hands clasped behind his back, smiled and walked up to the group, stopping ten meters away: “I broke one of your employee’s legs, and he spilled everything.”
Upon hearing this, everyone present felt a chill run down their spines.
“Julius Reed, you really have guts! You know there’s an ambush and yet you still come alone on horseback, carrying your hidden weapon case, to seek death?”
Thunder Leocadia took a deep breath.
Indeed, just as Miss Lopez had said, this man is hard to deal with.
But no matter how good the backup is, can it be quicker than a flying dart?
Now they still had more than thirty men, nine hidden weapon cases, and not to mention, a master backing them up.
Julius Reed laughed and shook his head: “Today, I am here to see you off.”
“Really arrogant! But today I don’t plan on killing you, Miss Lopez wants a live capture.”
Thunder Leocadia sneered coldly, pointing the dart at Julius Reed’s leg, “But she didn’t say we need you in one piece, I can choose to remove either your arm or your hand, as I please.”
His weapon spun in the air before finally coming to rest between Julius Reed’s legs: “Or perhaps, something unique to men.”
Julius Reed suddenly stated out of the blue.
This statement completely confused Thunder Leocadia. What kind of timing was this?
A life and death situation!
With both sides on edge and after exchanging harsh words, he actually said he was hungry?
He even suspected he had heard wrong.
Could it be that the scene earlier was too bloody, and he was hallucinating?
“I said, I’m hungry.”
Julius Reed repeated.
As he spoke, he touched his stomach.
When he wasn’t concerned with the Mortal World’s affairs, he never felt this sensation.
But ever since he lost his memory and joined the Radcliffe Family, he became just like a normal person.
Thunder Leocadia pointed the dart at Julius Reed, “This isn’t a restaurant, would you like me to cook something for you?”
He felt he was being insulted.
“I’m hungry, so I’m in a hurry.”
Julius Reed looked around, pointing at the bodyguards, “Now, I’ll give you a chance. Those who put down their weapons and leave, I won’t hold it against you, but Thunder Leocadia is the exception.”
“Do you still dream of your last moments?”
Thunder Leocadia viciously released the safety on the hidden weapon case, pointing it at Julius Reed, “I’ll break one of your legs first, let’s see how cocky you can be then!”
With the sound of something tearing through the air, Thunder Leocadia only felt his arm go numb; the hidden weapon case fell to the ground.
Before he could react, Julius Reed charged at him like a ferocious tiger!
“Release the flying darts!”
Thunder Leocadia, with a shock to his heart, shouted frantically.
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Bang…”
His men didn’t react in time, and by the time they released the flying darts, Julius Reed had already surged forward.
The hidden weapon cases were fired wildly, not a single dart hitting their target.
After that, Thunder Leocadia just felt something tighten around his neck, and found himself lifted off the ground by Julius Reed!
Before the others could figure out what was happening, Julius Reed stomped his foot, and the dart in Thunder Leocadia’s hand flew up, which he caught effortlessly.
With each sound of a dart, a bodyguard fell to the ground.
And at that moment, with Thunder Leocadia shielding Julius Reed, who dared to release flying darts?
After a volley of darts, all the bodyguards holding hidden weapon cases lay dead on the ground.
The air was deathly silent.
