My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 997

Chapter 997 Taking The Lead

With a deafening boom, the tank opened fire, releasing its shell.

The artillery soon landed and exploded, creating a large crater as it blasted all the enemies away and stained the earth red.

Unadulterated fear surged through the hearts of those who were lucky enough to escape the disaster, for they had just had a brush with death.

“Honey!” Lucas did not expect Ashlyn to be so radical and violent.

I can't believe she just ordered the tank to open fire!

“Apart from us, Dixon and Wilson, there are still two other forces out there in the forest eyeing us.” Ashlyn pursed her lips, her voice ringing in Lucas' ears. “Can't you just put a little more trust in my abilities, Honey?”

“I just don't want you to get hurt,” Lucas said as a shudder ran through his body.

His fear came from the fact that he had someone he loved.

Anxiety and terror gnawed at him, not because he was cowardly but because he instinctively wanted to keep Ashlyn away from danger and face all the remaining perils alone.

He had prepared himself to stay behind and provide cover for Ashlyn's retreat.

However, he didn't expect that not only did his beloved not want to retreat, but she wanted to fight back as well.

Given the current situation, we are now the ones taking the lead. As for all those dead illegal immigrants in the old factory building, they have become the most compelling evidence for us to use against Dixon. If the evidence falls into the hands of any other forces or is destroyed, Dixon may once again escape justice. Apart from that, we could also become cannon fodder for any of these forces.

With that thought in mind, Lucas no longer hesitated and sprinted toward a tall tree before making his way to the top of it. His eyes were gleaming with fierce determination as he pulled out his gun and raised his binoculars.

He then raised his gun and aimed at the leaders of the newly arrived forces, shooting them one by one with deadly accuracy.

The sudden barrage of fire caught the other party off guard, and almost everyone started to retreat. Unable to get any closer, they could only lie down on the side and shoot from a distance.

Cassandra gaped at Lucas, stunned beyond words. Those people were at least fifty or sixty meters away from us, yet he was able to take them out with a single shot each?
