Chapter 92 - Who Would Dare to Kill Her Today?
The people in the stronghold were immediately attracted by the sudden appearance of the trio.
These three people were just like Lucas, emitting a faint aura of a powerhouse.
Immediately, those who knew the inside story exclaimed.
“Damn, the other three founders also came out?”
“I didn’t expect that the matter of Lucas’s brother would alarm so many people!”
“Engel, who is ranked 62nd, Gungart, ranked 65th, and Yvette, who is ranked about the same as Lucas! Such a gathering was probably when our stronghold was created!”
“Hehe, do you think Yvette will help Daphne? After all, her teammate is Daphne’s father! Moreover, they are both great beauties!”
“I doubt it. After all, the one who died was Lucas’s younger brother!”
With the appearance of these three figures, the discussions of the crowd once again became boisterous.
At the end of the stone platform.
“Yvette, I have given you enough face by publicly judging Daphne this time. You won’t fall out with me over this matter, right?”
Lucas, who was dressed in a yellow robe, slowly spoke.
“Since I appeared here, I naturally won’t say anything!”
A woman wearing tight-fitting leather armor said faintly.
She was tall, and her leather armor accentuated her perfect curves.
Her long hair was tied into a bunch and draped over her back.
Without the cover of her hair, the woman’s facial features were even more exquisite. Especially her seductive eyes.
However, after she said this, she frowned and didn’t say anything more.
This person was one of the founders of this stronghold, Yvette.
“Hehe, Brother Lucas, please don’t be too sad. Your Brother’s death is really a pity! However, since we were able to catch the criminal today, it is naturally something worth celebrating!”
An elder who was almost 50 years old said with a smile.
He was Engel, one of the top 100 powerhouses on the leaderboard. He was also one of the people who had joined hands to create this stronghold.
“Brother Lucas, Ling Tian’s method is indeed not bad. The original intention of creating this stronghold was to obtain more resources from these ordinary people. Of course, we will also give them a certain degree of safety.
“Now, Brother Lucas, according to the restrictions that we set back then, we will punish those who violate it. This will not only relieve the hatred in Brother Lucas’s heart but also show our deterrence!”
Beside the old man, a man who was nearly two meters tall and was full of muscles said in a deep voice.
He was also one of the founders of this stronghold, Gungart!
The moment Gungart spoke, everyone’s eyes couldn’t help but shake.
That was right. They had created this stronghold for the sake of benefits.
Places with many people, resources, and information were never lacking.
Especially since they were the founders, the benefits they obtained from this weren’t something ordinary people could imagine.
However, if they wanted to continuously obtain these benefits, they had to have a deterrent effect!
Without whipping them once or twice, who would do things according to their constraints?!
“Gungart’s words are indeed correct. Since I put this matter out in the open today, firstly, it is for the benefit of the stronghold, and secondly, it is to give some people an explanation!”
After Lucas finished speaking, he did not say anything more and directly walked to the side of the cage.
“Say, who is the person who killed my brother?!”
Lucas’s voice wasn’t very loud, but it seemed to be filled with power as it spread across the square.
The crowd immediately quieted down and listened.
“I don’t know.” A trace of a cold smile appeared on Daphne’s face as she spoke.
“Colluding with others to kill my brother, you violated the number one restriction we set up!”
“This is a capital crime! Do you know that?!” Lucas’s face gradually turned cold.
As soon as these words were said, everyone on the scene couldn’t wait to give Lucas a thumbs up.
In the apocalypse, they lived in the stronghold for the sake of their safety.
Naturally, they were happy to see Lucas enforce the law fairly.
“I didn’t kill him. If you have the ability, go find the murderer yourself, Hehe!” Daphne replied coldly again.
“Since you don’t want to say it, then I won’t force you. Pay for your sins!
“It’s all thanks to my brother who said he liked you before he died! But, forget it. I didn’t ask anyone to hurt you. It’s enough respect!
“Now, you can be at ease to accompany my brother!”
Lucas’s voice turned cold.
As soon as he finished speaking, on the platform, dozens of archers appeared.
The arrows were already nocked, ready to be let loose at any moment!
With Daphne’s strength, under the attack of ten archers, she would die almost instantly!
“Kill!” Lucas said mercilessly.
The longbows in the archers’ hand started to tremble.
At this moment!
“Whoever dares to kill her today, I will not let them off!”
In the crowd, a loud shout was heard!
A man suddenly appeared in front of the stone platform and threw a powerful punch.
“Boom!”
The stone platform was hammered with a loud bang.
The cracks spread to the top.
The archers instantly lost their balance, and their attacks were intercepted.
“Damn, who is this person with such great strength!”
“Who else could it be? Lunad, Daphne’s father!”
“F*ck, no wonder this guy is so strong. If this punch landed on me, I would probably shit myself if I didn’t die!”
“It’s over. Is he rebelling?”
The crowd suddenly became noisy.
“Yvette, what does this mean?!” Lucas’s expression changed. He looked at Yvette who was beside him.
“It has nothing to do with me. He is just my teammate. It doesn’t represent my opinion,” Yvette said calmly.
Although she could not help her teammate and protect his daughter, she did not stop her teammate from saving his daughter, either.
“Hmph! Then don’t interfere!”
Lucas snorted coldly. He looked at Lunad and shouted, “Lunad, how dare you? Your daughter broke the rules herself. Do you still want to rebel for her?!”
“Lucas, my daughter said she didn’t kill him, so what’s the crime? Since you want to kill her by force, how can I not care!”
Although Lunad was Daphne’s father, he was not as kind as Daphne. Instead, his face was full of hostility.
However, everyone knew that he was doing this to save his daughter!
“Hehe, are you in charge here, or am I? Since you want to die, then I’ll fulfill your wish!
“Men, kill him for me!”
Lucas shouted loudly.
Instantly, a group of soldiers surged out from the crowd and pointed their weapons at Lunad.
In the stronghold, in order to maintain order, there was naturally no lack of troops.
Moreover, as long as there were some benefits, many people in the stronghold were willing to become soldiers.
“Lucas, these people can’t kill me. I think you should know better.”
Lunad’s gaze was fixed on Lucas.
“What about us!” At this moment, Engel and Gungart’s expressions changed.
One had to know that this was the time to show off the authority of the founders of the stronghold. If Lunad came to cause trouble at this time, it would not only damage Lucas’s face but also theirs!
However, even in the face of the oppression of the two powerhouses on the ranking list, Lunad said slowly and calmly, “I don’t mean to offend you. I just want to save my daughter!”
