Chapter 373 Permanently Unavailable

Luke ducked down and to the side to avoid the attack. At the same time, he swung the rod at the stranger’s ankle.

With a crack, the tall stranger’s movements suddenly turned awkward.

Luke turned around and hit the stranger’s other knee, and there was another cracking sound.

He then pulled back the rod, and with all his strength, brought it down heavily on the stranger’s right wrist.

The tall stranger’s weapon spun in the air as it was sent flying.

The tall stranger still didn’t utter a sound. He kept trying to charge at Luke, but because of his injured legs, he lost his balance and fell to the ground.

Luke shook his head in resignation. “It seems that you aren’t a smart one.”

He then felt around the back of his waist and came up with several rope darts.

When the tall stranger stood up again, Luke threw out the rope darts, and the steel ropes wrapped the stranger up firmly from head to toe.

Luke then activated a trigger, and the dart heads automatically fell off.

He picked up the dart heads, and using his alloy rod, flipped the guy over from where he had fallen on his face.

Lightning struck again, lighting up the tall stranger.

He was wearing ragged yellow and green overalls, which were mottled and looked old, as if they had been soaking in water all this time.

He was wearing a weird hockey mask.

There was a red triangular mark on the forehead and the cheeks of the mask, which also had evenly distributed holes for breathing. The mask was tied onto the bald stranger’s face with a belt.

Luke checked the system.

System: You have defeated Jason Voorhees and have received a list of his abilities.

Jason Voorhees’s abilities: Ultra Strength (Unavailable), Ultra Senses (Unavailable), Rapid Regeneration (Unavailable), Resurrection (Unavailable).

Luke was dumbfounded.

This was the first time that the abilities weren’t available for him to learn in the system.

All the abilities of this Jason Voorhees weren’t grayed out, which would mean that they were temporarily unavailable, but instead were black, which meant that they were permanently unavailable.

Luke was surprised but not especially so at this result.

This Jason Voorhees in front of him didn’t look like a human being.

Without a heartbeat or breath, and smelling like a decaying corpse, the guy was more like a zombie.

Who knew if Luke would end up bald and smelly too after learning this guy’s abilities.

Luke picked up the weapon which Jason had dropped.

It was a rusty and broad machete that was more than sixty centimeters long.

To Luke’s surprise, there wasn’t even a dent in this seemingly old machete after so many intense collisions with his alloy rod.

He estimated that the machete was two times heavier than a regular machete.

Throwing the machete away, Luke lifted Jason’s weird hockey mask with his alloy rod.

He then flung it deep into the woods.

Luke lowered his head for a look, and frowned subconsciously.

This Jason Voorhees was really creepy looking!

His features were distorted and bloated, like that of a pale corpse that had been in water for days.

No wonder the guy had the stench of a corpse on him.

Thinking for a moment, Luke took a mountain rope out of his inventory. Dragging the guy to his pickup which wasn’t far away, he tied the guy to the tow hook at the back of the pickup.

Luke got into the car and drove to Eden Lake Campsite.

In the campsite, he found the landline in Stephen’s cabin and called Dustin.

After a moment, Luke hung up the phone and chuckled at Jason, who was still struggling. “Let’s see if the FBI’s 17th Division will take over.”

He searched the tool shed, and found steel cables that were as thick as his thumb.

Grinning, Luke tied Jason up with the steel cables and took back the alloy wires.

Those alloy wires were his special creation. They were expensive and unique, and couldn’t be allowed to disperse in the outside world so easily.

He also set up a camera in front of the cabin in passing to monitor Jason.

When he was done, Luke clapped his hands. “Alright, Mr. Jason, you’re all wrapped up now.”

Luke then started moving again; he went round the lake to the other side. Crossing a hill, Luke saw a cabin in the woods.

This was the cabin where Lucas Barton and the kids had gathered earlier.

It was behind the hills opposite Stephen’s hotel and was only accessible by foot.

In a straight line, however, it was only one kilometer from the hotel.

The front door was wide open, and Luke walked into the cabin, which was still in a mess.

He didn’t approach the bodies, and simply used a flashlight to observe the head that was on the floor.

After examining it for a moment, he took out his fake phone and found a picture of a man in a prisoner’s uniform. Comparing the man with the head on the ground, Luke sighed. “It really is you.” The middle-aged man whom the kids had been interrogating and whom Jason Voorhees had beheaded was in fact Wade Davis, that real estate businessman from Texas.

Mark Owen, the Texas ranger, was killed while escorting Wade Davis, and this businessman had been missing since then.

Lucas Barton was the biggest suspect in Mark Owen’s murder.

As it turned out, Wade Davis had been hiding here.

No wonder Lucas Barton came in a hurry after hearing Luke’s name, and planned to kill Luke back in the motel.

He must’ve thought that Luke had found a lead on Wade Davis, and fearing that his crime would be exposed, he came to shut Luke up.

All of this started with the officer’s murder.

After confirming Wade Davis’s identity, Luke finally solved the puzzle.

Suddenly, he heard a feeble voice. “H… Help me.”

Luke turned his head and noticed one of the kids who had been shot.

There was a long and winding trail of blood behind him. He had clearly struggled to crawl to the door, but couldn’t move anymore.

At that moment, he looked at Luke with a pleading expression. Luke crouched down and took out a syringe to give the boy a shot.

It was a painkiller.

Luke then asked, “How did you find this place?”

The kid was a little dazed, but as the painkiller kicked in, he stammered out his story.
