The Legendary Man Chapter 243

Take Them All

“See those guys out there, standing like idiots? I want them all arrested. If anyone tries to resist, you have my permission to kill them on the spot.” Jonathan shot a cold, murderous glare at Derrick. When Derrick saw it, he felt a chill run down his spine, and terror welled within him.

The fact that Jonathan would really kill them if they tried to resist made him blanch, and his legs started to tremble in fear.

“Yes, sir!” Andrew had his orders, and he would not hesitate to execute them. He waved down and commanded his army, “Divine Dragon Guards, heed my order! Prepare for battle! Immediately!”

“Yes, sir!”

The sounds of the army assembling their guns roared across the room. The armored soldiers quickly reloaded their firearms and pointed them at everyone on the scene.

“Will you be coming with us without resistance, or shall we do it the hard way?” Andrew looked coldly at Derrick and everyone around him. Whenever anyone met his gaze, they averted their eyes by staring at the ground.

Derrick started to ask questions, but his voice was trembling from sheer terror. “Y-You have no right to arrest us! You have no grounds to do that!”

“Irrelevant. We need no reason to arrest you. We do as we please,” Andrew snapped, his voice as harsh and cold as the winter air.

The Divine Dragon Guards needed no reason to arrest anyone they wanted. All they had to do was raise their guns, and they would either come back with the target, or they would drench their hands with blood. Such was the lawlessness of the so-called ‘land of peace’; a band of murderers and tyrants posing as bearers of justice, justifying their murders with ‘national security,’ and branding those they deem as threats as ‘traitors.’

“T-That is just—” Derrick wanted to retort, to defend himself, but before he could manage to get even a whimper out, Andrew cut him short, “You have until the count of three. Either you get into the car, or I’ll get my men to take you in.”

“One!”

“Two!”

“Three!”

Once Andrew had reached the count of three, all the Divine Dragon Guards, as if on cue, raised their guns once more, but this time, they were prepared to pull the trigger.

If Derrick refused to comply, they would shoot him without any hesitation.

“I-I’ll go with you! Don’t shoot me!” Derrick raised his hand without any hesitation and showed a gesture of surrender to the army. The moment he raised his hands in the defeat, his team of burly men put down their steel pipes and bats immediately.

They decided to give up fighting. After all, their chances of getting out of the fight alive were slim to none. They were armed with nothing but steel weapons, but the Divine Dragon Army had firearms. Going up against them would be a suicide mission unless they were gods.

“And what about you lot? Will you surrender, or will you fight?” Andrew looked at Damien and his team of police officers. After all, Jonathan also included them in the list of people to be arrested.

“I-I am a police officer.” Damien was starting to get a little nervous after Andrew turned his sights on him. “Y-You have no authority to arrest me.”

“I am not here to hear your nonsense.” Andrew didn’t even give him a chance to defend himself like he did Derrick. Instead, he waved his hand forward, “Guards! Take this sorry lot back.”

“Yes, sir!”

Hundreds of armored soldiers equipped with firearms quickly came toward the group of policemen, which struck fear within them, and they raised their hands in defeat.

“D-Don’t shoot us! W-We’ll come with you, we promise!” The police officers could not find it within themselves to go up against an army of fully armed soldiers.

“Trash! All of you are trash!” Damien insulted his team of officers after realizing that they were going to go down without a fight. But the moment he opened his mouth, he saw hundreds of guns turning to him as if they would shoot if he even said one more word.

“Shut up and get in.” One of the soldiers smacked Damien’s head impatiently with the gun he was holding, which silenced Derrick immediately.
