V4C93 – Mystical Employer (1/2)
Edited by: Supreme Doge
“Nicolas, do not open fire!” Tom knew of my strength – someone who was all right even after getting shot by a Desert Hawk at point blank would certainly not be afraid of guns. Even more, when he heard me say that the bullets can turn around, his heart immediately turned cold. He feared that his partner won’t believe his words and might open fire on impulse. If that happened, then…!
“Oh! Why? Tom, were you forced by him?” Nicolas said what had been on his mind, “Don’t be afraid as I will certainly save you! But first, I need to open this guy’s head into a bloody flower!”
As Nicolas said this, he pointed the gun to my forehead and pulled the trigger.
“Bang!”
“No!” Tom and Jerry both closed their eyes at the same time.
Nicolas and his companions were waiting for my head to bloom into a flower of blood, but they saw a scene that they would never forget in their entire life. The bullet appeared as if it grew eyes and, instead of shooting into my forehead, it made an elegant curve and hit the gun in Nicolas’s hand.
As Nicolas saw the bullet fly towards his hand, he wanted to escape, but before the immense speed of a bullet, how could he escape?
“Thud!” The gun in Nicolas’s hand fell to the ground as Nicolas stood there with blood flowing from his hand. But he was still a man, even after having his hand pierced by a bullet, he didn’t scream!
I just wanted to teach him a lesson, so I didn’t kill him.
“Guests from East, I am the boss of this place, Jake C. Douglas! Please forgive my people for their bad hospitality and accept my sincere apologies!” At this time, an old man wearing a white vest came over.
“Lieutenant Colonel!” All the men gathered around us immediately put down their guns and made way for the old man.
I looked at the old man – thin, short, with a beard and a white vest with dark blue pants! It was impossible to imagine that he was the boss of this mercenary company! People who don’t know him will think that he was just a retired worker.
If I didn’t know his identity from Tom’s mind already, I would have definitely thought that he was a fake!
So at this time, I didn’t show any surprise on my face and simply said, “Hello, I am Liu Lei.”
When I looked at Jake, Jake was also looked towards me! He had seen everything that happened just now from the monitoring system from his office!
Moreover, he had seen the recording of us appearing out of thin air without any sign! This shocked Jake so much that he thought that it was some sort of camouflage trick I used, therefore, when the men came gathered around us, he didn’t come out to stop them! But when he saw the bullet shot at me taking a turn and going back to Nicolas, Jake finally knew that he had met a Supreme authority today! {ED: Do I count as a Supreme authority?}{TL Note: I think you do.}
The East had already been a mysterious place to these Westerners, so when he saw that I was Eastern, he naturally linked me to the supernatural, cultivators and so on! {TL Note: I am one of the so-called Eastern – how mysterious do the Western readers think I am?}
Not only were people like me strong, they could also resist weapons, so Jake didn’t want to sacrifice his men unnecessarily. Who could guarantee that a second and even third person will shoot at me and will I still be merciful to them? So he quickly appeared in front of us to stop that from happening!

With Jake’s current appearance and attire, he had thought that the man before him would suspect or show a surprised expression, but he discovered that I didn’t have any change in my expression, appearing as if all this was natural to me!
