Chương 93: Massacre

When the person speaking came closer, Lucas could finally see that it was Gerard.

"You are so eager to die?" Gerard chuckled at his remark.

"On the contrary, we came to send you off." Gerard looked around at his men.

"I told you that I will have my revenge. Now you are surrounded." Lucas glanced around him; he could see ten men. Then he looked deeper in the forest, smiled, then focused his attention back on Gerard and his men. He grinned when he saw Gerard retreating behind his man. He was no fool. Then Lucas glanced at his gun.

"What a pity…just 3 shorter."

"What do you m…" Bang! Before Gerard could ask further, the man standing beside him fell to the ground with a bullet hole in his head. Gerard's face turned cold, then he shouted at his men.

"What are you waiting for?! Fire!"

"Tat-tat-tat-tat!" The rifle fire echoed through the forest; the relentless sound chopped through the humid air and, for a few brief seconds, illuminated that piece of the forest. When they finally stopped and looked over for Lucas, they were stunned. There was no one standing there. The men looked around in panic, fearing a bullet might fly in their direction.

"Help!" A short sound was heard followed by a "Crack!" When they looked over, they saw Lucas, who had just snapped the neck of their teammate. Lucas held the lifeless body with one hand, and the other held the gun. Suddenly, he put the body as a shield, as a rain of bullets came in his direction. The bullets cut continuously into the dead man's body, making his flesh fly around. After a few more seconds of enduring this, the man's body was unrecognizable. Lucas glanced at the man and smiled.

"I thought you could heal…my bad." Without giving them a chance to take a breath, Lucas fired exactly two bullets. This content has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.

"Bang! Bang!" The shot from the Desert Eagle resounded through the forest as two more of Gerard's men fell down. Now there were only six remaining people in front of him. Lucas didn't stop; still using the body as a shield, he ran in their direction. Although the fire was raining down on him, Lucas didn't stop. Suddenly, he threw the body at one man. The man panicked and barely dodged, but unfortunately, that was followed by a bullet to the back of his neck.

"Only five to go!" He smirked and looked at Gerard. Because he threw the body, the hunters finally got the chance to shoot directly at him. Lucas lunged at the next target as a few bullets made holes in his clothes. Before the man could struggle, Lucas punched him straight in the throat.

"Cough!" The man's mouth began filling with blood before finally dying.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Click!" Lucas shot his 3 remaining bullets, hitting all their targets perfectly. Now there was only one man besides Gerard. Gerard looked around in complete silence; all of his men were dead. Besides him stood a trembling young man.

"Please! I have a kid!" The man begged, as even pointing his gun felt like he was lifting a mountain. Lucas observed the man carefully, then bent down and reached for something from the dead body.

"Take it like a man!"

"Wh.. at..?" Before the man could continue, a knife flew through the air, embedding itself straight into his eyes and reaching his brain. Blood splattered directly onto Gerard's face. By now his face had completely lost its earlier confidence, and his head was trembling. Seeing this, Lucas spoke with a warm voice.

"Do you need a diaper?" Seeing his face become even more ugly, he continued with a reassuring smile.

"It's understandable, you're old."

"Do…you…think that you've won?!" Gerard spoke as he gritted his teeth.

"Why?! If you just weren't here, my plan would have worked by now!" Lucas gazed at him with mockery in his eyes.

"What? Your grand plan of becoming an alpha?"

"How?!" Gerard took a few steps back in shock; he never told anyone about that.

"You're dying. I can smell it." Gerard's eyes were filled with apprehension, then he shouted loudly towards the surrounding forest.

"What are you waiting for?! Because of you, all of my men died!" Crunch! Lucas could hear steps all around him; this time he was truly surrounded from all parts. He sensed that the number was more than double than Gerard's men. Flashes of light illuminated his figure, making it seem as if he were in a spotlight. The men were even more armed than those of Gerard's.

"You should have stayed far from here, Lucas Ashford! Now you will pay for what you have done!" Lucas stared at the man in front with a scrutinizing look. He was expecting the leader of the Calavera, but he couldn't see her.

"Did they hire a homeless person to kill me?" Although the man didn't move, Lucas could see his face showing some anger. Glancing with the corner of his eye, he couldn't see Gerard anymore.

"What? You want to chat?" Lucas grinned at the man. He then opened his arms as if embracing death.

"Come on!"

"Tat-tat-tat-tat-tat!"
