Chapter 915
Chapter 915: Stepping Forward
The six experts around Samuel, who had all been crippled by Jordan, were all lying on the floor and unable to get up.
But there was an intense murderous intent in Samuel’s eyes, as if it wouldn’t take much effort for him to kill Lucas.
The surrounding guests were speculating about what kind of treasure Samuel would use. Even Ezra was slightly excited.
Then everyone saw Samuel suddenly pull out a heavy pistol from his waist and aim the shiny dark barrel at Lucas!
Many people in the hall gasped subconsciously with panic and horror on their faces.
Although many powerful families had their own channels to get guns and ammunition, very few would use them in public like Samuel did.
Moreover, most people had a natural fear of weapons such as guns.
Almost no one in the banquet hall dared to speak for a long while. Even the crowd’s breathing became much softer.
Everyone couldn’t help staring at the gun aimed at Lucas.
But everyone was shocked to find that even though the pistol was aimed at him, the expression on the young man’s face remained almost unchanged. There wasn’t the slightest trace of tension or fear on his face.
…
Was he not afraid of the pistol?
Could it be that he was already shocked out of his wits by the gun?
“Hah, punk, no one can escape from bullets, and I can honestly tell you that I used to specialize in shooting. So you’ll definitely die today!
“If you have any last words, hurry up and say them. Otherwise, I’m afraid you’ll never have the chance to speak again!” Samuel said arrogantly with a look of superiority while gripping the pistol tightly.
In his eyes, Lucas was already dead. That he was still willing to give him time to say his last words was already a great act of kindness.
But the fear, awe, and regret he hoped to see on Lucas’s face weren’t present at all, making Samuel feel rather disappointed.
Lucas looked extremely calm, and there was even a smile on his lips. “You know what? Many people have pointed guns at me, but I’m still alive and well now. Do you know why?
“Because that thing in your hand is just a pile of scrap metal to me, and it won’t have any effect against me at all. I suggest that you put it away. Otherwise, you’ll be the one who dies,” Lucas said indifferently, but his words were the truth.
It was only a small gun. Even if there were dozens of guns aimed at him, Lucas wouldn’t even frown. These things that seemed terrifying to ordinary people couldn’t hurt him at all.
Unfortunately, Lucas was telling the truth, but no one present believed him.
“He must be joking. How dare he say that Samuel’s gun is just a pile of scrap metal?”
“Haha, he’s way too arrogant! Does he think he can dodge bullets? What a braggart!”
“Hmph, Samuel’s marksmanship is impressive! We witnessed it with our own eyes when we visited the firing range together. He basically hit the bull’s eye every single time! Now that he’s at such close range, that punk will never be able to dodge the bullets!”
“Hah, he’s still pretending even when things have come to this? I refuse to believe that he can survive the bullets Samuel shoots!”
…
The crowd began discussing. Of course, apart from sucking up to Samuel, they didn’t believe what Lucas said at all.
Standing beside Lucas, Jordan was the only one calm. He looked at Samuel as if he was looking at a fool.
For some reason, his expression made Samuel feel extremely uneasy.
Are they… really not afraid of guns?
Why are they so calm?
It doesn’t make any sense at all!
No, they must be pretending so that I’ll be too scared to fire!
“Hah, since you don’t want to leave any last words, you can go to hell and repent there!” Samuel roared and was just about to move his finger on the trigger!
An icy cold glint appeared in Lucas’s eyes. As long as Samuel made a move, he wouldn’t be polite. The person who died the next moment would be Samuel!
Ezra stared intently at everything in front of him. He was so agitated that his breathing began to quicken!
Yes, that’s it. Start fighting! It doesn’t matter who dies! Ezra screamed maniacally in his heart.
“Dad, quickly stop!”
Just in the nick of time, an anxious voice suddenly sounded in the middle of the hall. At the same time, a figure dressed in a light green evening gown hurried over and resolutely blocked in front of Lucas!
“Pamela, what are you doing?!”
Seeing the actions of this person, Samuel’s pupils constricted for a moment, and he didn’t pull the trigger.
He had almost fired, but his daughter suddenly rushed out and blocked in front of Lucas!
“Pamela, are you out of your mind? Do you know you almost got killed?” Samuel shouted at Pamela in exasperation and fear.
Pamela’s face was pale, but she stretched out her arms and blocked in front of Lucas. She gritted her teeth and said, “Dad, you can’t kill him. You won’t be able to do so anyway! You’d better put the gun down!”
Pamela knew very well that a pistol wouldn’t be able to do any harm to Lucas.
When Lucas saved Pamela in that remote town abroad just over a year ago, the dozens of terrorists were holding various pistols and submachine guns. But Lucas wasn’t daunted by the bullets at all. He had even bravely rescued her from them!
A small pistol had no effect on Lucas at all!
Pamela had to stop her father from doing something foolish to save his life.
Lucas looked at the young woman blocking with her arms spread, and his heart trembled!
He knew very well that Samuel’s finger was already on the trigger just now, and with just a bit more force, the bullet would have shot out of the gun.
At such a critical moment, Pamela actually came forward and used her body to shield him!
If Samuel hadn’t controlled himself or if he had been a little slower, Pamela might have been shot to death by the bullet!
Thus, Lucas was extremely shocked by Pamela’s action and couldn’t help being touched.
