Chapter 199 Shot Fired
When Lei Zhen pulled out a weapon from his inventory, Peter Heisen was astonished slightly.
pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ His body began to panic as he struggled to break free from the stun and the attack of Candice.
"You dare to kill me secretly???!" Peter Heisen suddenly roared aloud.
"Don't you know my big brother would avenge me even if I had committed a heinous crime? Are you sure you can bear that responsibility?" He added.
From his tone alone, Lei Zhen could tell he was starting to become desperate.
Peter Heisen never thought that even if he regained his full strength, it was no match for Lei Zhen who was proficient in disabling his opponent.
His disabling skills were magnified tenfold with the unique effect of the class, Crowd Controller. Thus, Peter Heisen could barely break free of the stun before another one was cast right at him.
During this time, Lei Zhen also ordered Candice to stop her magic as he finished loading the weapon.
Indeed, the weapon that Peter Heisen was trying to transport was an old-school firearm.
Some might even refer to it as a musketeer pistol.
"This kind of pistol is already outdated from what I know and it's really limited. It could only store one bullet, so I have to make everything count, right?" Lei Zhen took off his mask and flashed his evil smile.
He gently walked forward, one step at a time. And with each step Lei Zhen took, Peter Heisen felt like his life was draining.
He was immovable and had no way of countering the annoying Stun's effect.
And when his eyes locked on Lei Zhen's appearance for the first time, he knew it was a big mistake to ask his big brother for help.
'I'm dead…' Peter Heisen thought to himself.
His eyes could only see the bullet being fired off from Lei Zhen's musketeer pistol. The bullet was like a slow-motion trajectory, aiming straight for his forehead.
BANG!
With one shot fired accurately at the forehead of Peter Heisen, blood started leaking out of the spot as he collapsed to the ground, lifeless.
Just one bullet was enough to take a man out like Peter Heisen, who had posed quite a problem for his fellow crewmen.
As for Lei Zhen, his eyes were crystal clear, almost as if the dead body in front of him did not affect his mood or emotions at all.
Placing the musketeer pistol back into his inventory, Lei Zhen put his mask back on and turned around.
"Have some of the crewmen clean a dead body here and tell them to finish off the other three people." He calmly ordered.
Candice was dazed as she merely nodded her head unconsciously. It was clear that she had never seen such a ruthless and cold-blooded Lei Zhen before.
Meanwhile, Lei Zhen didn't pay attention to her reaction and made his way toward the Steering Room.
'If you want to blame anyone, then you can blame your big brother, Charter. The nerve of him to try to fool me and attack my ship. I'll let him follow you soon enough.' Lei Zhen thought to himself.
The reason why he took off his mask and revealed his appearance to Peter Heisen was to warn him that if he ever reincarnated. This is the face that he should never want to offend in his next life.
Sometime later, at the Steering Room, Howard had already begun operating the ship.
"How's the situation, Howard?" Lei Zhen asked from behind after entering.
"The situation is quite grim. I already see numerous ships pointing their cannon at our ship." Howard replied.
"They sure worked fast." Lei Zhen sneered coldly.
Based on the gunshot sound from earlier, Charter most likely knew what he had done already.
With that in mind, it was clear that Charter would block his path at all costs, and prevent him from going to the higher-ups to explain the matter.
Nevertheless, Lei Zhen did not regret his action of killing Peter Heisen immediately. His strength had recovered and if left untouched, their ship would have been attacked from the inside and outside.
It was a big dream and a fat chance for these two brothers to think he was some soft-hearted brat.
If one had to talk about who's ruthless, then they are wrong to even pick a fight with Lei Zhen.
"Continue to go forward, I'll have Candice use her Telekinesis power again to increase the ship knots. I want to make it a blast at the Tris Port and let everyone know about this." Lei Zhen commanded.
There was no need to hold back the firepower and pent-up frustration that he had gotten throughout the sea.
He was going to be peaceful and amicable, but Charter just had to spoil everything with his lies.
Time slowly passed by, and cannons were soon fired from both sides, causing a huge tremor at the dock and the sea.
When the bystander of Tris Port realized that ships were attacking each other, panic and chaos erupted right away.
Never did they expect someone would have the courage to bring their ship to attack a port of the Athea country.
Of course, Lei Zhen knew Charter would quickly misinform the public that they are an invader.
After all, what better way is there than to misdirect the public to support him and attack his ship?
Luckily though, Lei Zhen had anticipated such a move from Charter since it's common sense and logic to rally up support for you.
From the Steering Room, Lei Zhen opened a window and yelled out to one of the crewmen, "Lift the flag of Yors Castle!"
With that said, the flag of Yors Castle was soon revealed, and the bystanders were able to get a clear look at the supposed invader ship.
"Huh, isn't that Yors Castle's flag?"
"Why would Yors Castle suddenly want to invade us?"
"Could this be a mistake?"
Soon, the public opinions were divided, and Charter held a grim expression as he realized his justification for shooting at Lei Zhen's ship might be questioned.
