By the time Chris Shelby arrived at East Coast Securities, the scene was chaotic. The entrance was littered with debris and bloodstains, with thousands of East Coast Securities members lying injured or dead on the ground. Bull approached with a look of deep remorse. “Mr. Shelby, I’m sorry. It’s my fault that East Coast Securities has suffered such heavy losses!”
As the current head of East Coast Securities, Bull felt an immense burden of guilt. Chris Shelby, frowning deeply, asked, “Where is Dull? Where did he go?” Bull replied helplessly, “Dull is too cunning. After attacking us, he immediately fled the scene.”
Hearing this, Chris Shelby’s expression turned grim. Dull had indeed played a clever trick, striking where they least expected. Although Chris Shelby had managed to eliminate tens of thousands of members from Knights’ Liberty, East Coast Securities had also sustained severe casualties. This was the first major setback since the establishment of East Coast Securities, and Shelby was furious.
At that moment, the only thought in Chris Shelby’s mind was to kill Dull.
The next day, a major news story broke in East Coast. There had been a chaotic battle in the suburbs last night, causing widespread panic. Fortunately, Chris Shelby had previously coordinated with Lightning from the East Coast Constabulary, who quickly held a press conference to announce that the incident was merely a drill, calming the public.
Chris Shelby learned that Dull, along with thousands of mercenaries who had attacked the security company, were not easy targets as they were elite members of Knights’ Liberty. Soon after, Phoenix called. “I’ve spotted a cruise ship off the East Coast shore. It’s likely that Knights’ Liberty’s leader, Dull, is on that ship.”
“Immediately gather the Guards of Death and head to the East Coast docks!” Shelby ordered.
Within minutes, Shelby and his men arrived at the docks. Based on Phoenix’s information, Dull was aboard a cruise ship in the sea, surrounded by numerous armed speedboats patrolling the area. Dull was clearly on high alert, fearing an attack.
Determined to eliminate Dull, Chris Shelby personally requisitioned a warship. Soon, tens of thousands of Guards of Death soldiers boarded the warship. Before long, they located Dull’s cruise ship, a luxurious vessel over a hundred meters long and dozens of meters wide, heavily armed and guarded. The deck was swarming with thousands of Knights’ Liberty members, all armed and patrolling.
Despite the heavy losses inflicted by Chris Shelby, the Knights’ Liberty still had thousands of fighters left-Dull’s last stand. Without any hesitation, Shelby launched the attack.
“Enemy attack!” the cries echoed across the cruise ship as the battle commenced.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Phoenix led the Guards of Death in storming the cruise ship, sparking fierce combat. Meanwhile, in the ship’s grand hall, Dull sat on a sofa, his expression grim. Last night’s annihilation of ten thousand Knights’ Liberty members by Chris Shelby was a devastating blow for Dull.
Although Dull led an attack on East Coast Securities, he was forced to flee to a cruise ship. To his surprise, he found Chris Shelby was also at East Coast, a miscalculation on his part. Had he known Chris Shelby was there, he would never have ventured there. Now, his only goal was to leave East Coast as quickly as possible. Dull knew Chris Shelby was ruthless; staying meant certain death.
“Boss, we’re in trouble!” At that moment, a bloodied mercenary burst in. Dull quickly stood and asked, “What happened?” “Death has led a large force onto the cruise ship, we’re about to be overrun…” The mercenary collapsed dead after speaking.
“What?” Dull’s face paled; he hadn’t expected Death to come so quickly. Bang! Before Dull could react, the door was kicked open, and a figure entered. “Death!” Seeing the figure, Dull narrowed his eyes.
With a fierce look, Dull shouted, “Death, I’ll kill you! Attack!” At his command, dozens of Knights’ Liberty practitioners charged at Chris Shelby. Chris Shelby smirked and, with a dagger in hand, fought back. Bang! Bang! Bang! In moments, the Knights’ Liberty practitioners lay dead.
“Impressive, truly impressive. You indeed make the western underworld tremble, Death!” Dull glared at Chris Shelby. Holding his dagger, Chris Shelby said, “Dull, I spared you once out of mercy, and yet you dare challenge me in Amerosia. Today, you will surely die.”
“Ha ha ha!” Suddenly, Dull laughed loudly. Staring intensely at Chris Shelby, he gritted his teeth and said, “Death, you killed my father years ago, now it’s time to settle our scores!” With that, Dull drew a sharp military knife. “Death, today I will kill you to avenge my father!” With those words, Dull charged at Chris Shelby with the knife.
Chris Shelby smirked and charged with his dagger. The two moved incredibly fast, clashing almost instantly. Clang! Clang! Clang! Their weapons continuously collided, ringing out.
“Death, you can’t kill me! Ever since my father died, I’ve been enhancing my strength, just for the day I could kill you!” “Is that so?” Chris Shelby sneered. “Dull, in my eyes, you are but an ant, easy to crush.” With that, Chris Shelby’s speed surged.
Chris Shelby’s dagger thrust viciously. Dull, unable to dodge, could only block with his knife. Suddenly, Dull’s face turned pale. The dagger had deeply penetrated his chest. “Death, you…” Dull, looking down in disbelief at the dagger in his chest, fell to the ground with a loud thud.
