Revenge

The corkscrew plunged right into Jack's right eye with precision and blood gushed out instantly!

"Ahh!!"

Jack rolled about on the ground as he screamed and wailed.

In that instant, the eldest son of the Zoffs of L.A. became a cyclops!

"What are all of you doing?!"

"Good-for-nothings! All of you are good-for-nothings!"

"Kill him! What are you doing standing there in a daze?! Kill him right now!"

Jack had already given the order, but no one dared to move.

To be more precise, out of the sixteen bodyguards, fifteen of them had blocked Heller's way just now when he attacked Jack. However, all of them had fallen to the ground in an instant and died on the spot!

The last remaining bodyguard who moved the slowest had luckily survived, but he took several steps back instead with a look of horror all over his face.

Heller forcefully pulled out the corkscrew in Jack's eye, thereby also gouging out his damaged eyeball along the way. He held it in Jack's face and said indifferently, "So, you're the one who wants to kill my daughter?"

Splurt!

Heller plunged the corkscrew down once more.

This time, he stabbed Jack's left eye instead.

"Ahh!!"

Together with the scream, Jack became completely and permanently blind!

Heller had gouged out both of Jack's eyeballs and held them in his hands as he said coldly, "So, you're the one who wants to violate Ruby?!"

The freshly gouged-out eyeballs covered Heller's hands in blood.

Jack screamed again and again, frightening the last bodyguard out of his wits.

"Y-you! Stop that!"

The bodyguard took out a pistol from behind him. Perhaps because the pistol gave him enough courage, he looked at Heller and said grimly, "Let go of Mr. Zoff immediately! Otherwise, I'll shoot!"

Heller slowly got up. He held the two eyeballs and asked calmly, "You want these? Here you go, then!"

Heller threw Jack's eyeballs straight at the bodyguard!

The bodyguard's scalp went numb and he pulled the trigger immediately.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

With a flash, the Hades Swords appeared and gleamed in the light.

With a whoosh, the bodyguard's right hand, which was holding the gun, was neatly cut off at the wrist.

"Uh!"

The bodyguard let out a muffled cry and fell onto the ground with his face pale.

Heller was still standing where he was as if he hadn't moved from there at all. However, the bodyguard's pistol was already in Heller's hands!

Then, Heller turned the muzzle around, aimed it at Jack, and pulled the trigger!

Bang! Bang! Bang! …Click, click!

Heller emptied the magazine of bullets in an instant.

Immediately after, Heller casually took out a new magazine from a bodyguard next to him who was long dead. Then, he aimed the gun at Jack and pulled the trigger again!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Gunshots rang out unceasingly.

Bullet after bullet struck Jack, and Heller emptied two full magazines.

During the whole process, before Jack could even scream, innumerable terrifying bloody holes had formed on his body.

What came after the intense barrage of gunshots was dead silence.

The night breeze whirled in from the window, causing chills to go down the spine of the bodyguard whose hand had been severed, and he felt cold all over.

He couldn't do anything at all. He could only widen his eyes and watch as Heller accurately emptied two magazines of bullets into Jack one by one.

Every time a gunshot sounded, he would tremble along with Jack, whose body was close to falling apart. It was as if every bullet was striking him in the heart.

It was as if his pulse and his heartbeat were about to break free from the shackles of his body!

The bodyguard looked at Heller as if he had seen a ghost and said shrilly, "D-do you know who he is?! You actually shot him! Heller, you're in big trouble! You've thrown L.A. into a huge mess!"

Upon hearing his words, Heller suddenly smiled. His smile was very genuine and even seemed exceptionally friendly and peaceful.

"I didn't kill him."

Heller glanced at the bodyguard and explained, "Don't get me wrong, he isn't dead yet."

"What?"

The bodyguard was stunned for a moment. Then, he took a deep breath and blurted, "He's taken more than twenty shots, yet you're telling me he isn't dead?!"

Heller replied calmly, "Taking twenty gunshots and dying are two different things. You may not believe this, but I'm actually a doctor and I know the human body very well. I avoided all his vitals just now."

"This…"

The bodyguard only felt an even colder sensation quickly permeating his entire body.

He glanced at Jack—his body was close to falling apart because of the bullets. However, his hands and feet were still twitching slightly, which proved that Heller wasn't lying.

Jack was indeed still alive!

At the very least, he was still alive for now.

It was just that the more that was so, the more fearful the bodyguard became.

He was very sure that this was definitely not Heller's kindness! He just didn't want to let Jack die so easily!

"Killing him straightaway is going too easy on him."

Heller looked at the bodyguard and said dispassionately, "Do you know why I didn't kill you? Because I still have a use for you. Tell me, from which roof did Jack push my daughter down the building?"

Fifteen of the sixteen bodyguards had died. Just one was spared. It was by no means because Heller couldn't finish them all off, but because he had done so deliberately!

The bodyguard quietly swallowed. He pointed out the window with a trembling finger and stammered, "T-the building next door!"

"Very well!"

Heller grabbed Jack with one hand and instructed, "Lead the way."

The bodyguard led Heller to a small six-story building next door. After that, Heller dragged Jack up to the top of the building alone.

Heller was already gone. Nevertheless, the bodyguard didn't secretly escape—he didn't dare to!

Immediately after, he saw a dark shadow falling from the sky.

With a thud, Heller had thrown Jack off the roof and he landed hard on the ground.

Heller also jumped down from the top of the building. However, he didn't suffer any injuries. It was as if he was walking on flat ground!

Next, the bodyguard watched as Heller took out a set of silver needles and pierced Jack with them at high speed.

What was he doing?

Was he trying to save Mr. Zoff?

He was right—Heller was indeed saving Jack's life. Or at least, he wanted to keep Jack alive.

He was the man known as Hades!

With the Thirteen Needles of Death, he could take back anyone's life from the ruler of the Underworld himself!

He didn't allow Jack to die just like that. Jack absolutely mustn't die!

Not long after, Jack woke up and gradually regained consciousness.

Although he was in an extremely weakened state; although both his eyeballs had been gouged out by Heller; and although he had bloody holes all over him;

he was still alive!

"Are you awake? Great!"

A big smile appeared on Heller's face.

His smile was very bright and one could almost say that he was overjoyed. But in the eyes of the bodyguard, it was tantamount to a devil's smile!

"W-what exactly do you want?!"

"Heller, let me remind you that I'm the eldest son of the Zoffs! You can't kill me!"

Heller nodded and said calmly, "Thank you for the reminder. I know who you are."

Heller picked up Jack with one hand and quickly walked up to the top of the building. He dangled Jack in the air and said, "It was here where you pushed my daughter down, right?"

The next moment, Heller let go and gave him a light push.

Boom!

Jack fell from the top of the building once more!
