Chapter 520 Vincent's Death
Chapter 520 Vincent\'s Death
Without hesitation, he extended his hand and grabbed Vincent by the color of his shirt. Then, he pulled him backwards.
Due to the speed that this happened, the shirt was not given a chance of tearing. So, Vincent who had been rushing forward rapidly suddenly had his legs that were still rushing forward to rise into the air, while his upper body remained behind.
Bang!
Jack did not hesitate to knock Vincent onto the ground harshly. And, although it was true that currently, the ground within the stronghold domain was quite strong, but, it was not capable of handling the pressure that was placed on it.
Several cracks began extending with Vincent\'s body as the center. Vincent on the other hand coughed a mouth full of blood as he momentarily lost his breath.
Although Jack was currently handling an old man, he was not lenient at all. After all, it was not as if he was the one that had gone ahead and provoked him. It was the other way round.
Immediately after he was done with knocking the old man onto the ground, Jack did not spare him. Currently, Derek had already provoked him twice. Although it might be true that currently, they did not have any killing intention towards him, that more so applied to this old man, but, that could not be applied to Derek.
That implied that if Derek was given a chance of killing Jack, then, he was not going to hesitate. Additionally, although he did not understand the reason why, but, Jack could feel that the amount of killing intent that Derek possessed towards him was too much.
After all, Jack did not know about the incident where Alicia was involved. So, he did not know that the main source of hatred towards him was the fact that, all the two women that Derek had set his eyes on or actually somehow related to Jack. And, both of them seemed to be in love with him, completely ignoring him.
Bang!
A kick landed onto the old man, making his body roll for a few meters. The old man did not have a chance of retaliating in this situation at all. He was completely helpless in front of Jack.
What was happening currently had already attracted the attention of the passing pedestrians. So, a crowd slowly began forming around.
But, they began moving far away from where the fight was happening after they suddenly detected the aura that was coming from the old man. A superhuman aura was definitely way higher than that of an ordinary human.
Still, although they felt that there was a lot of danger in this fight between the two people, they did not go away. Instead, they stood a distance away as they watched the show.
It was not that easy for them to be able to find a fight where two people wanted to kill each other. Though, in this situation, it seemed that there was only one person that was intending in killing the other.
Jack was not holding back when he was attacking. So come at the moment that he attacked the old man, he immediately broke several bones. Since he was no longer going to stay hidden, then, he was not going to spare the enemies that were going to cause him trouble in the future.
Vincent rolled onto the ground before coming into a halt. But, he did not let out a sound. Although he was struggling, there was nothing that he could do in this situation. The pain that he was feeling was intense, but, he managed to hold on using his sheer willpower.
At this moment, he was already regretting allowing Derek to provoke Jack. Had he known, then, perhaps he might have actually gone ahead and created a friendship between him and Jack. This way, it was going to be easy for them to complete the mission.
But from the looks of it, he had failed in his mission as a guardian. Not only was he going to fail the mission that was given to Derek, but, it seemed that he was no longer going to be capable of protecting Derek from Jack, if Jack wanted to kill him.
Jack approached him with steady steps. He had already decided to kill the old man, so, he was not going to play around with him. But, the old man was quite kind of resilient, something that surprised him.
If possible, he really would have wanted to recruit this guy to join his organization that was going to be built in the future. But, it was different. It was clear that this old man had already put his loyalty somewhere else. So, it was not going to be easy to change his mind.
Had It been a young man, then come up there would have been a chance of doing that. But, it was going to be a very difficult task for him to be able to convince this old man to join him.
"Can you… Can you spare… the young master?" Although he was undergoing a lot of pain, Vincent looked at Jack who was approaching and asked, with blood leaking from the sides of his mouth.
"I had already left him to live. When he was after my fiancée, I did not kill him. That was already lenient enough. But, it seemed that that was not enough that he came after me again after I spared him.
Then, here you are, trying to attack me. Do you think that I am going to continue keeping trouble around? It does not as if I have much time to deal with you group of annoying flies." Henry snorted as he responded.
Then without giving the old man a chance, he struck again. This time, he targeted the neck. And, currently, since the majority of the bones within Vincent\'s body had already been broken, he did not have a chance of resisting at all.
Crack!
His neck was swiftly broken. He twitched a little bit before finally stopping. And just like that, Vincent\'s life had ended here.
The moment that Jack killed Vincent, the surrounding crowd was stunned. It was not as if it was something new for people to be killed within the stronghold. But, that mainly applied to the normal people being killed by ordinary humans in secret.
But this time, they had actually seen a person so strong getting killed easily by a youth. They did not know this youth as this was the first time that the majority of them were seeing him, and neither did they know the old man.
But still, they knew one thing, and that was, nobody was allowed to kill within the stronghold. That especially applied to ordinary humans and above.
Jack did not care about what others thought about the situation. So, he went ahead and searched the old man, but, he was surprised that he did not find anything of value on the old man. It was as if the old man did not carry anything with him this time when he came over.
And, that was actually the truth. The old man thought that he was going to deal with Jack first, and after that, he will go back to the Panthers organization to watch over Derek to ensure that he had healed.
And, after Derek came out of his coma, they were going to leave this stronghold and go back to their own stronghold. But, he had not expected that he was the one that was going to die here, instead of being capable of taking care of Jack.
After realizing that there was nothing of importance on the old man, and even after picking a few useless things, the system did not give him any prompt of the income getting multiplied, Jack turned around and left.
As for the body, he did not care. After all, he believed that within the stronghold, there was definitely going to be a person that was going to be taken care of the corpses.
After Jack left, it was only then that people finally came over. Of course, these people were from the several organizations that were within the stronghold. They themselves had been observing the fight from the sides.
But, they did not have the guts of intervening. Just the strong pressure that was being emitted from the two people was enough to scare them off. So, after making sure that Jack had actually left, they went ahead and took a look at the old man.
The people from the Panthers organization immediately realized that this old man was within the Panthers organization not long ago. So, with slight hesitation, they carried his body and put it inside a car that had been driven over. Then, they rushed back to the organization base.
…
On the other hand, after realizing that Jack had actually chased after the old man, Watson immediately rushed towards Smith. He supported him from the ground, before trying to rush out of the store.
But, it seemed that he had forgotten about something. Although he had focused on Jack the most, since he was actually way stronger than Smith, he ended up forgetting about the fact that not long ago, he had actually been injured by Celine.
To him, since the greatest danger was gone, he decided to get out of here as soon as possible. Additionally, he was not even planning to go back to the Force organization base that was present within the stronghold, instead, he was planning to leave the stronghold in its entirety.
