Gu Ran's words, like Caesar's, inexplicably made Zhen trust them. She had suffered from a weak heart since childhood, so she would faint whenever she encountered a stressful event.
But at this moment, she felt no fear beside Gu Ran, after all, this man had just saved her life by catching her from the sky.
She didn't close her eyes either, but simply hid to the side, refusing to look at the miserable state of the bad guys over there, nor to listen to their cries of agony.
In reality, all she could hear was the sound of raindrops, as if it were just a quiet rainy night, concealed by the downpour.
At this moment, Lu Mingfei was tightly hiding in the cover. He had two cars on the ground, and the engines of the vehicles could stop bullets. Moreover, most of the bikers were armed with shotguns, which had average penetrating power. Therefore, Lu Mingfei was still quite safe for the time being.
"Capture the monkey-faced man alive! I want to interrogate him about who's behind him!" Caesar yelled at Gu Ran beside him. "You protect Miss Zhen!"
Then, he began to lead the charge.
Justice be with me!
With three magazines, Caesar was a god on the battlefield. Paired with a high-precision rifle like the M4, he could hit every shot. As long as someone dared to show their head, he could hit them with a simple shot.
He was moving closer to Lu Mingfei at that moment, and the bikers couldn't rush towards Lu Mingfei to fire their guns.
In no time, nearly a hundred biker gang members on the field had been shot, mostly in the left and right hands, rendering them unable to pick up their weapons.
Gu Ran then added insult to injury, not by actually killing anyone, but by firing two shots at the knees and elbows of the bikers.
Being shot in the joint area is equivalent to having both hands severed at the elbows and both legs cut off at the knees.
Killing someone is simple; all it takes is one bullet, and the person is dead.
But it would take eight bullets to cripple their limbs, leaving these thugs with lifelong disabilities, confining them to wheelchairs or hospital beds for the rest of their lives.
Which one would cause them the greatest pain?
Of course, they should live a life worse than death, a life of constant suffering!
The monkey-faced man, hiding in the car, made a phone call to a mysterious person: "Sir, we...we can't hold on any longer!"
Yes, he wanted to retreat.
Caesar was already terrifying enough with the gun, but there was also Gu Ran secretly finishing him off!
But during the phone call, the mysterious person calmly told them to launch a suicide charge, saying that this was their way of upholding righteousness and justice.
Then, the call was hung up.
The monkey-faced man understood that he had been abandoned.
At this moment, he only had two choices: surrender or fight to the death.
Fighting to the death would mean certain death.
But surrendering also means death, because betraying the master behind him will attract endless killing intent, and he will be hunted down to the ends of the earth even if he escapes to the ends of the earth.
The monkey-faced man gritted his teeth, took out a test tube from his pocket with his only remaining hand, and poured the liquid inside into his mouth.
Caesar had already met up with Lu Mingfei by this time. He shielded Lu Mingfei in front of him and said, "You did a great job today. You did a fantastic job suppressing the firepower just now!"
As the team leader and a nobleman, Caesar would always show care and praise to his team members when appropriate.
“From now on, you will be behind me, and I will protect you!” Caesar said.
Chapter 401 Leader of the Weak?
"Oh, oh, oh!" Lu Mingfei was somewhat moved by Caesar's words. He knew that Caesar was that kind of person, someone who would stand up for the weak.
Lu Mingfei... was also used to being protected.
Under the command of the monkey-faced man, the thugs opened fire on Lu Mingfei together, seemingly for no particular reason. Perhaps they saw him as the weakest and wanted to use him as a hostage to negotiate with Caesar and Gu Ran.
As for the group of female internet cafe employees who were initially taken hostage, they have now scattered and are looking for places to hide.
But Lu Mingfei still saw quite a few girls trembling on the side.
Suddenly, Lu Mingfei remembered what Yuan Zhisheng had said: that the underworld is the leader of the weak, which Gu Ran had ridiculed at the time.
Looking at what these gangsters are doing now, they're nothing but weakling leaders, clearly just thugs who loot, vandalize, and burn.
As Gu Ran said, the so-called protection of the weak is nothing but a hypocritical excuse, just like the slogan of the Heaven and Earth Society to overthrow the Qing and restore the Ming.
The gunfire gradually subsided.
Both Caesar and Gu Ran were top students in the practical training courses at Kassel College. They were first-rate in both shooting and hand-to-hand combat, and their tactical skills were even more proficient than those of the Marines.
With the added advantage of their bloodline, these petty thugs who hadn't even finished high school and only knew how to threaten the weak with guns were utterly powerless to resist.
At this moment, the thugs all collapsed to the side, groaning in the heavy rain.
"You protect yourself, I'll go and bring the monkey-faced man over!" Caesar patted Lu Mingfei on the shoulder, preparing to bring the monkey-faced man over and interrogate him about the person behind the scenes.
Caesar had only taken two steps away from the cover when suddenly a huge figure descended from the sky, his hands transforming into enormous claws that lunged at Caesar's face.
Caught off guard, Caesar only paused instinctively, dodging the attack on his face, but the dragon's claws pierced his arms.
It was the monkey-faced man. He had drunk some kind of gene serum and had completed his dragon transformation, launching a final, desperate attack.
The monkey-faced man who had completed his dragon transformation possessed physical abilities comparable to Caesar after his blood surge, and he was also covered in scales, giving him incredible defensive capabilities.
Caesar threw away his rifle, knowing the bullets wouldn't hurt his opponent. He endured the pain, drew his Dick Tudor hunting knife from his waist, and retaliated against the monkey-faced man.
The blade struck the monkey-faced man, but he seemed oblivious to the pain, still gripping Caesar's shoulder tightly. Then, he opened his mouth wide, revealing sharp teeth that had sprouted from his dragon form, and tried to bite Caesar's neck.
Gu Ran, who was not far away, was about to come over to help when she heard Caesar say, "Don't come over, protect Miss Zhen!"
He wouldn't allow that girl to suffer any more accidents!
Caesar used his knee to hold down the monkey-faced man's upper body, but he couldn't hold out for long, because the monkey-faced man's fighting style was clearly aimed at mutual destruction!
Gu Ran only had ordinary military ammunition, which had limited effect on the monkey-faced man after his dragon transformation. He took out a kunai, imbued it with wind-style chakra, and was about to shoot it at the monkey-faced man's head.
But suddenly a black figure jumped out from inside the fire, holding a long knife, and stabbed it directly into the monkey-faced man's heart.
Unfortunately, the monkey-faced man had already completed his dragon transformation. His body was covered with dense, large scales, so ordinary blades couldn't hurt him at all!
"Senior brother, catch the knife!" Gu Ran took out his catfish tail knife and threw it to Chu Zihang, whose clothes were tattered.
The catfish tail dagger landed right beside Chu Zihang, and he could catch it with a slight raise of his hand. Then he drew the dagger and plunged the blade into the other man's back, piercing his heart.
"Ah! Ouch!" The monkey-faced man let out a wail. Chu Zihang pulled out his knife, and a large amount of blood gushed out from his back. The monkey-faced man, who had lost a lot of blood, suddenly lost all his strength.
Caesar then broke free from the monkey-faced man's grasp, glanced at Chu Zihang, and said, "It's good that you weren't burned to death."
"There was water in the bathtub at the Turkish bath, which saved my life," Chu Zihang said calmly. "He seems to still be conscious. Should we interrogate him?"
The Molotov cocktail, a genetic drug, doesn't completely turn a person into Deadpool; some of their consciousness will remain.
The monkey-faced man took out a pair of underwear from the pocket of his tattered clothes. It belonged to Miss Zhen. Caesar was immediately furious when he saw it. He couldn't forget the lewd look on the monkey-faced man's face when he smelled Miss Zhen's underwear before.
For a nobleman, the inability to protect the women around him was a disgrace.
He held the hunting knife to the monkey-faced man's neck: "Tell me what you know right now. I know that dragon blood won't kill you so easily. It will amplify your senses. I have a million ways to slowly torture you!"
The monkey-faced man opened his mouth, seemingly wanting to say something weakly.
Caesar was about to listen when, without noticing, a gunman suddenly emerged from the ruins, pulled an old-fashioned revolver from his pocket, and aimed it at Caesar's back.
Lu Mingfei reacted the fastest. He immediately stood up, lunged at Caesar, and pushed him away. The gunman opened fire instantly.
The bullet grazed Lu Mingfei's carotid artery and struck the monkey-faced man squarely between the eyebrows.
Lu Mingfei felt a sharp pain and then fainted, collapsing onto the rain-soaked ground, blood gushing from his neck.
The next second, a kunai fell from the sky and struck the gunman between the eyebrows, killing him.
Gu Ran brought Miss Zhen over, touched Lu Mingfei's neck, quickly tore open his cotton T-shirt, and used strips of cloth to press and stop the bleeding. At the same time, he used his palm magic to treat him slightly.
"His carotid artery was lacerated, but not severed, so he won't die immediately. This kid is just too afraid of pain and has fainted."
Caesar glanced at the monkey-faced man's corpse and tossed him aside: "It was a brass armor-piercing bullet. The gun must have been modified. The gunman came to silence him."
“But Lu Mingfei thought the gunman was going to kill you.” Chu Zihang looked at Lu Mingfei, who was pale-faced, and then glanced at Caesar.
Everyone in the school knew that Lu Mingfei had a crush on Caesar's fiancée. Caesar wasn't stupid; he knew it too, but he just didn't care.
Caesar said nothing, but asked Gu Ran, "Is he alright?"
"We still need to find a place to treat him. I'm afraid he'll lose too much blood if it goes on too long, and he'll be more likely to lose his blood in the rain," Gu Ran said. "You and Senior Brother Chu go first. I think the people from the Snake Clan headquarters have arrived. I'll hold them off for you."
Lu Mingfei was determined to hit the target with this shot, his goal being to make Caesar owe him a favor. Therefore, Gu Rancai did not stop him, since the young boss was by his side and he wouldn't die anyway.
Just then, a speeding car drove into the end of the blocked street. Caesar's Kamaitachi heard the sound of a Ferrari, Genji's Ferrari.
Although he had many things to say to Yuan Zhisheng, he and Chu Zihang were exhausted and hungry, and they were also carrying a seriously injured man, Lu Mingfei. It wasn't the time to seek revenge yet.
"Let me hold him." Caesar picked up Lu Mingfei like a little princess.
Gu Ran gave the remaining gun pouches to Chu Zihang to carry, and also gave him a keychain: "There's a tracker inside, so I can find you."
Chu Zihang nodded, took back his long sword, and returned the catfish tail to Gu Ran.
Caesar asked, "What about Miss Zhen?"
"If I hand her over to the giant tortoise, hiding her away might make her vulnerable to being shot by strange people. It's better to hand her over to the giant tortoise openly. I believe the giant tortoise won't make things difficult for Miss Zhen."
Caesar nodded, agreeing with Gu Ran's words, and finally said to Miss Zhen, "Don't worry, after this period is over, I will definitely be able to arrange for you to go to university in Italy. This is Caesar Gattuso's promise."
After saying that, he and Chu Zihang left with the injured Lu Mingfei.
Aso looked deeply at Caesar, unsure of what to say, and simply nodded and bowed slightly, whispering, "Sayonara! (Goodbye, indicating a long separation)."
Gu Ran took off his coat and draped it over the ragged Miss Zhen.
Aso said thank you and followed Gu Ran.
Just then, Genji arrived at the scene with Sakura, followed by Crow and Yasha.
"I didn't expect to meet you again so soon, the great young master of the Yuan family." Gu Ran was shirtless, because he was only wearing two clothes. His undershirt was torn open to stop Lu Mingfei's bleeding, and his coat and cloak were draped over Zhen.
The torrential rain continued to fall, washing away the dirt from Gu Ran's body. His handsome face now appeared unusually resolute as he silently confronted Yuan Zhisheng and the others.
Yuan Zhisheng ignored Gu Ran's sarcasm. He looked at the devastated ruins around him, the raging fire that even the heavy rain couldn't extinguish, and the badly injured biker gang members on the ground.
"Are you alone?" He looked at Gu Ran, because the information he had received earlier was that he thought Caesar had come here.
Gu Ran followed his words and said, "You should be glad that I'm the only one here. If Caesar and Lu Mingfei had almost died here, the academy headquarters might have mobilized bombers from the US military base to burn this town down."
Although Genjiro will find out that Caesar and the other two are also there when he interrogates the biker gang members, they haven't gone far yet, and Gu Ran still needs to buy some time.
“Oh, by the way, those people lying on the ground were there because they were molesting girls. I saw vulnerable young women being hurt by so-called ‘leaders of the weak’ and no one cared, so I had no choice but to act as a righteous judge!” Gu Ran said. “But I was very careful and spared their lives. You can go back and interrogate them to see if what I said is true.”
