America: John Wick 1924

Chapter 50 The Hunt! The Hunt! Annihilate the Black-Robed Patrol! [Breaking News, Please Vote!]

The color drained from his face in an instant, and he hurriedly turned to look behind him.

The ghostly figure vanished—in its place a blade of light that filled his field of vision!
Phew!

Half of a head flew into the sky.

A fountain of blood gushed onto the ceiling.

……

……

Most of the Black Robe Patrol members were still drinking and making merry in the hall, the strong stench of alcohol filling the air.

Creak... Suddenly, the east door was pushed open—Li Yu, carrying a lever-action rifle, swaggered in and entered the view of everyone in the hall.

Li Yu gave them no time to react—he picked up the lever-action rifle in his hand and yanked the trigger!

boom! boom! boom! boom! boom! boom!
He fired all the bullets in his chamber in one go, and every shot hit its mark! All six bullets struck! The heads of six enemies were pierced through!

The glistening liquor mingled with the crimson droplets of blood, splashing everywhere.

Those who were still alive stared blankly at all of this.

It wasn't until thick blood splattered on their faces and the pungent smell of gunpowder filled the air that they awoke as if from a dream, screaming in alarm and hurriedly crouching down to find cover.

"Aaaaaaaah! Blood! It's blood!"

"Who is this guy?!"

"It's him! He's Qingchong, the one who disguised himself as a priest!"

"Why is he here?!"

"Never mind him! Kill him!"

Led by Louis, they eagerly drew their sidearms, cautiously peeking out from behind cover, aiming at Li Yu's location, and unleashing a barrage of bullets.

Their bullets merely stirred up the air in vain, hitting the empty floor.

Before they could return fire, Li Yu had already rolled away and taken cover behind a pillar, calmly reloading his ammunition.

Click—He pulled hard on the guard, loaded the gun, grabbed a beer bottle from beside his feet, and threw it away forcefully.

Louis and his companions were in a state of utter panic, like birds startled by a horrible explosion.

Seeing the unidentified object fly out, they were all startled and immediately raised their guns to shoot.

Bullets crisscrossed, forming a dense barrage that tore the bottle into countless fragments, the glistening liquor scattering like a shower of petals.

The falling water droplets clearly reflected Li Yu's swift figure—in the instant that Louis and the others' attention was drawn to the thrown wine bottle, Li Yu burst out from behind the pillar where he was hiding like a whirlwind!

"Hey! He's charging at us!"

"Fire! Fire!"

"Never mind that bottle!"

Belatedly realizing what was happening, Louis and the others hurriedly turned their guns around and fired all the bullets they had left.

"Bullet Time Lv.B", activate!

While dodging the incoming bullets, Li Yu raised his lever-action rifle again.

With the "Lever-Lever Rifle Mastery Lv.A" buff, he can hit any target within a 200-meter radius!

Therefore, it was no use for these guys to hide in the bunker—even if they only showed half of their heads, they couldn't escape Li Yu's bullets!

boom! boom! boom!
Three more people fell to the ground.

A bullet flying through the air.

A broken wine bottle.

A bloody storm that devours lives.

The swordsman, dressed in a black robe, sped through a hail of bullets.

What was once a peaceful hall was transformed into a slaughterhouse in an instant!

In the blink of an eye, Li Yu, as swift as lightning, had moved from one end of the hall to the other, closing in on someone.

His right hand gripped the vajra at his left waist—whoosh!
The blade, which sprang from its sheath, swept across the man's body! Blood spurted out, revealing white bones!

While killing this man, Li Yu multitasked, rapidly swinging his lever-action rifle with his left hand—ejecting the spent cartridge, loading, aiming, and pulling the trigger—shooting down another man not far away.

After penetrating into the heart of the enemy ranks, Li Yu's fighting style became increasingly fierce!

He skillfully used the knife in his right hand and the gun in his left to kill enemies, sometimes running close to the ground, sometimes leaping, jumping from one enemy to another, from one pillar of blood to another!
Any enemy who got close to him was reduced to a mangled corpse.

One person clutched his ripped-open chest and fell backward.

One person's lung was punctured, and blood clots kept gurgling out of his mouth.

One person's upper and lower body were only connected by a few bits of flesh and blood. Due to inertia, his lower body staggered forward a few steps before collapsing.

This is exactly what is meant by "cutting the Gordian knot"!

Having lost all will to fight, he took advantage of the chaos to run towards the nearest door, trying to escape.

But when he turned the doorknob, he was shocked to find that the door in front of him was locked!
"Damn it! Who locked the door?!"

He wasn't the only one to let out such a scream.

Others who wanted to escape in the chaos also found that the doors in front of them were locked—except for the door where Li Yu had just appeared, every door in the hall was locked!
Forget about the door Li Yu just appeared through; if you want to escape there, you'll have to get past Li Yu first...

Therefore, if one wishes to leave this place, there is only one way to go—a corridor located on the north side of the hall leading to the entrance.

Seeing that there was no hope of opening the door, the person had no choice but to give up.

However, before he could turn around and find another way, he saw a dark shadow, exuding a strong bloody stench, looming over him from behind, enveloping him and the doorway in front of him...

……

……

"Haa...! Haa...! Haa...! Haa...!"

Led by Louis, the six people scrambled and rolled down the corridor, rushing towards the entrance without daring to look back.

After a fierce battle, only six members of the Black Robe Patrol remained.

With Lady Luck's blessing, they managed to escape the hall without incident while Li Yu was busy killing others, and fled to the corridor leading to the entrance.

As they looked at the entrance hall that finally appeared before them, tears of joy welled up in their eyes.

However... after discovering that the doorknob was completely stuck, their hard-won glimmer of hope quickly turned into despair.

"Damn it! This door is locked too!"

"Anyone else have bullets? Smash this lock!"

"No! We're out of bullets!"

"Then smash it open!"

Driven by their will to survive, they all mustered all their strength and slammed their heads against the door repeatedly.

However, the door was much sturdier than they had anticipated.

No matter how hard they rammed it, the thick door panel remained completely unmoved.

Snap, snap, snap, snap, snap...

The sound of footsteps, damp with liquid, drifted eerily down the corridor.

Louis and the others felt as if they had heard a demonic voice from hell. After shivering several times, they turned around cautiously to look—at the other end of the corridor, in the thick darkness, a tall and terrifying figure gradually appeared.

He dragged the smoking gun barrel and the blood-dripping long knife, leaving a long trail of blood on the ground.

The chanting, devoid of sorrow or joy, echoed throughout the entire corridor.

“‘O Lord, your right hand displays power and glory.’”

“‘O Lord, your right hand has shattered your enemies.’”

“‘You display your mighty power and overthrow those who attacked you; you unleash your fury like fire, burning them like straw.’”

As the black-clad swordsman drew closer, for some reason, Louis suddenly recalled a sentence he had said in his speech earlier—the black robe is the symbol of death!
