Chapter 211: Terrifying
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Stanley’s horrified expression remained on his face just as he was about to leap over and protect Lucas. He discovered to his astonishment that Lucas, who was just standing near him, had suddenly vanished!
Immediately afterward, Stanley felt a force tugging at his collar. His body couldn’t help but propel into the air as the scene in front of him began to spin and become blurry.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
…
The nearly 30 pistols fired at the same time with gunshots that resembled the sounds of beans exploding. All of a sudden, the space at the entrance of the Brooke residence was awash with the sounds of gunshots, making people’s hearts palpitate.
But when the sound of the gunshots stopped, everyone looked over at the entrance, only to see Lucas and his men, who should have been unable to escape, standing right there unscathed!
Lucas still looked as composed as ever. But Stanley, whom he was lifting by the collar, had an indescribable look of astonishment on his face.
The Brookes looked at each other and blinked, dumbfounded and shell-shocked.
The elite henchmen who fired shots from their pistols just now looked as though they had seen a ghost.
If not for the deep bullet holes left in the ground, the surrounding walls, and the tree trunks, they would have suspected that they were dreaming or wondered if there was something wrong with the guns in their hands.
But how exactly did Lucas Gray and his men manage to remain unharmed despite the blizzard of bullets?
“How exactly did you dodge the bullets?” Andrew was stunned and furious as he asked this question.
Lucas naturally wouldn’t answer his question. He simply smiled faintly and said, “Since you guys are done, it’s my turn now.”
He raised his hand and waved it. Countless rays of green light darted out of his hand. Numerous pine needles that were as thin as needles stabbed into the eyes of the henchmen holding guns!

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
“Ahhh! My eyes!!”
“Waaa!”
“Argh! It hurts!”
…
Miserable shrieks filled the air.
The gunmen dropped their pistols one by one and covered their eyes with their hands while shrieking in misery.
“They’re… pine needles!”
Finally, someone saw what was stuck into the eyes of the gunmen, and they immediately shrieked in disbelief.
Their jaws dropped in shock as they stood rooted to the ground, dumbfounded and suspecting if they were still dreaming.
The flying needles and hidden weapons used to hurt people only appeared in action movies!
In particular, the pine needles Lucas threw were plucked from the pine tree at the entrance just now!
With a wave of his hand, he threw out dozens of pine needles and accurately shot them into the eyes of the thirty people. This wasn’t something that normal people could do.
All the Brookes, except for those covering their eyes and rolling around, were dead silent!
Andrew’s face was twitching, and he felt as if his body had plunged into a freezing pond. Even his teeth were chattering as he quivered.
Lucas’s move was simply too intimidating, extraordinary, and terrifying!
The densely packed bullets hadn’t been able to hurt him at all, and no one could see clearly how he had managed to dodge the bullets so swiftly!
In fact, he had not only dodged the bullets, but he had also carried Stanley in his hand, allowing him to be unscathed.
The even more terrifying thing was that he had merely used pine needles to accurately poke them blind in the eye!
Besides, he had launched not only one but dozens of pine needles at the same time. None of them missed!
It… it was completely beyond their imagination!
Lucas was simply… beyond human!
Even Stanley was looking at Lucas in astonishment.
Just now, Lucas grabbed him by the collar and dodged the bullets. But due to the fact that Lucas was too quick, he could only see a blurry scene before his eyes while the loud and dense sounds of gunshots rang in his ears. But he didn’t get shot by any of them.

When his feet landed on the ground, he was amazed to find that he actually remained unscathed in the face of so many bullets!
The scene of Lucas’s flying needles piercing the gunmen blind had utterly frightened Stanley!
At this moment, Stanley finally understood that Lucas’s abilities had already far surpassed his. They were completely beyond his imagination!
Jordan was the only person among the people present who wasn’t surprised by Lucas’s terrifying skills and strength.
Looking at the shocked and horrified Andrew, Lucas suddenly smiled and walked toward him.
Andrew watched as Lucas approached him step by step. It was almost as if he was looking at a terrifying beast as he started trembling violently. If not for his pride keeping him hanging in, he would have probably turned limp and dropped to his knees in front of Lucas.
Lucas walked up to Andrew and said with a faint smile, “Mr. Brooke, as I said just now, you’re even more foolish than I imagined. What do you think?”
Andrew’s heart quivered, and he felt as if he had taken a strike to his head.
Yeah! I’m just a fool!
I clearly knew long ago that Lucas Gray isn’t a simple person, but I still self-righteously disregarded him and repeatedly offended him. I even tried to exploit and kill him!
I’m really foolish!
The sense of pride within Andrew’s heart vanished, and he could no longer hold on. He dropped to his knees with a loud thud and knelt in front of Lucas with a despondent look of despair on his face.
“Mr. Gray, Mr. Gray, I know that I was wrong! I was blind and foolish to have offended you! I-I’m willing to pledge allegiance to you on behalf of the Brookes, and I vow to never offend you again! Please give us a chance!”
Kneeling on the ground, Andrew pleaded desperately in pain and agony.
Lucas said indifferently. “Your grandson harbored designs on my wife previously, but I didn’t pursue the matter and instead gave you a chance to serve me. Yet you guys didn’t behave and even betrayed me time and time again. You guys ruined the chance you were given. Do you think I’d give you another chance to betray me?”
“No, no, no, we won’t dare to do it again! Mr. Gray, I really know my mistakes. As long as you’re magnanimous enough to forgive us once, we’ll definitely willingly become your subordinates and do everything you want us to in the future!”
Andrew repeatedly promised while looking at Lucas with his wrinkly eyes. He wished he could take out his heart and show it to Lucas to prove his sincerity.
At this moment, Andrew was indeed truly full of regret!
After witnessing Lucas’s terrifying strength, he immediately understood that even without his incredible background and the power of the military, Lucas would still be able to destroy the Brookes with his individual strength.
Only now did he finally understand why Stanley had told him that they had offended someone they shouldn’t have and that they would soon vanish.
He now understood that Stanley was referring to Lucas!
Unfortunately, he didn’t believe it at all at the time, and now it was too late for regrets!

The Destiny of a Mortal God (Hiatus)
Currently on hiatus, in part because I'm unsatisfied with how the story was starting to develop, and even though I had ideas how to run it, I still made mistakes far too big to correct them. Secondly I'm currently stressed about university, and sincerely, I don't see myself keeping this project. I may or may not retake this project or even start a new one, but one thing's for sure, it isn't happening anytime soon (Meaning until june, aprox, or until I can keep up with class). ... Lyon Ironblood, 19 years old and orphan, is taken by Kronos from the present Earth to another world, where he shall fight and struggle to get stronger so that he shall acomplish the mission Kronos assigned him. He shall fight gods, demons, dragons and monsters and even mortals who surpass those. But to do so he shall receive, though only after he proved himself worthy, a power beyond imagination. This power will not be handed freely to him, and he'll have to work hard to develop it. He shall receive the X-Men System. A magic system designed to enhance Lyon and give him the mutations from the X-Men serie. He shall start from scratch, with powers that will seem less than a mere human, and develop them with effort, to surpass the gods. [I don't claim ownership of any of the X-Men powers or characters, neither the cover, only thing I claim are the ideas which make the story and put together their powers, how they'll develop from scratch to even higher worlds than they were suposed on the series, other than that, all X-Men characters named (which I'll try to avoid to a certain point) are not of my property]

World Master
Hey! I once lived on your world back in 2056. But that was a long time ago and there’s probably no records of my existence. Or, maybe, I haven’t even been born yet… …I’m still figuring out of the timelines correspond. Anyways, I was or will be, or whatever you want to call it (maybe I am?), John Pitcher, a resident at St. Jude’s Hospital for the Mentally Ill. I was a computer programmer and my parents had me admitted there because I was convinced that I had been contacted by Set, the Egyptian god of chaos, about creating a world. Well, apparently, I’m something akin to the great times a hundred grandson of over 10 000 gods, and they didn’t want me to live an ordinary, dull life (well, except for the god of normalcy, but he doesn’t count). Set gave me three years to prepare myself. This begins right at the end of those three years. [participant in the NaNoWriMo Royal Road challenge] I originally had this as part of the prologue, then I realized that it made a better synopsis. Please note: this might seem a bit clunky because I haven't done a lot of writing, and this is supposed to be a kind of prequel to another story that I plan on doing in the future. I will not be fully explaining everything but instead will be explaining things in that other story. This is mainly to help fill in the lore of the world so that people will have at least a basic idea of how things function. Regardless of that, that story won't be written for at least another year, so deal with it. Note: I am using ideas from several different authors in order to make sure that this can be a proper story. You may or may not recognize where I got them. I am not writing a Fanfiction and do not claim these as my own. I will add to a list of titles below as I find myself using those ideas. World Keeper (obviously) The Wandering Inn The Legend of Randidly Ghosthound (not yet, but eventually) A bunch of others that I haven't thought of yet
