Chapter 549: Scarface of the Kingstons
No one had expected that the two top families would go to war just because of this!
Once war broke out between the Kingstons and the Coles, they would go to war in all aspects, such as business, reputation, the stock market, public opinion, personal connections, resources, and even actual combat. It would be a large-scale war that would result in a massive impact.
Regardless of the final outcome of the war between the two families, it would greatly impact the economic market of San Francisco.
Lucas glanced at Edmund.
He hadn’t expected that Edmund would really declare war with the Kingstons without hesitation just for his sake.
He was emotional and touched, finding Edmund to be truly righteous and loyal.
After the Coles and Kingstons declared war on each other, Damon, Connor, Joe, and the others on Lucas’s side, who had gone out of their way to come all the way here, also expressed their stand.
“The Parkers declare war on the Kingstons too!”
“The Hales declare war on the Kingstons too!”
“Little Atlantis City stands against the Kingstons too!”
…
The group all looked extremely determined as they stood behind Lucas.
Lance’s face became even more gloomy. “Since all of you want to stand against the Kingstons, then you will all stay here today. None of you will leave!”
He hollered at the top of his voice, issuing orders to the thirty or so men in black around him, “Attack immediately!”
After hearing the order, the men in black standing around the crowd started taking action. They raised their weapons and attacked.
“Go!”
“Kill them!”
“Kill!”
…
On the other side, Damon, Connor, Joe, and even Edmund had all brought the top powerhouses of their families.
There were around 150 people. Although their combat abilities were inferior to that of the Kingstons’ henchmen, they weren’t outnumbered.
Seeing everyone fighting, Lucas was touched.
They were all fighting for him.
Edmund took Lucas’s arm and admonished, “That top expert from the Kingstons hasn’t struck yet, so be careful! Beside me is Iron Wolf, the elite guard of the Coles. He will protect you!”
Edmund pointed to the middle-aged man beside him and said, “You must protect Mr. Gray’s safety. No mistakes allowed!”
He sent his personal elite bodyguard to protect Lucas.
Iron Wolf took a casual glance at Lucas and said indifferently, “As long as you don’t stray too far from me, it’ll be fine.”
He looked rather arrogant, seemingly not taking Lucas seriously at all.
But in fact, Lucas didn’t need his protection. He smiled and said, “Protect Mr. Cole and Miss Cole. You don’t have to care about me!”
Then Lucas headed straight toward Marc.
Iron Wolf immediately frowned and roared from behind him, “Hold it right there! The black-clothed man with a scar on his face behind Lance Kingston is very powerful, and even I am not confident I can defeat him. Are you rushing to die?”
He looked extremely displeased.
He had initially only needed to protect Edmund and Alexis. But now, Edmund suddenly put him in charge of Lucas’s safety. He was full of discontent for Lucas for causing all of this. Seeing Lucas charging toward the experts working for the Kingstons, he criticized Lucas for being brainless and reckless.
Edmund and Alexis panicked and hurriedly said, “Lucas, don’t be impulsive!”
Lucas turned around to look at them with a smile before dashing forward.
A mere expert of the Kingston family wasn’t enough to intimidate him!
Lance also noticed Lucas unexpectedly rushing out from the crowd and charging toward his grandson Marc. He narrowed his eyes. “You’re courting death yourself!”
“Scarface, kill that punk right now!” he bellowed coldly.
The man in black named Scarface charged at Lucas without making a single sound.
There was no doubt that he was the top expert of the Kingston family. He moved at lightning speed and appeared in front of Lucas almost instantaneously.
Edmund was astonished. Afraid that Lucas would be hurt, he immediately ordered, “Iron Wolf, go save him immediately! Don’t worry about us!”
Iron Wolf’s heart tensed up. The moment he saw Lucas in critical danger, he wanted to go forward and save him.
But he was too late. By the time he started rushing toward them, they had already started fighting!
“Shit!” Iron Wolf’s expression instantly changed drastically.
The Coles and the Kingstons had been at odds against each other for years and knew each other rather well, so they were naturally familiar with the strongest experts of each other’s family.
Iron Wolf had said earlier that he might not be able to defeat Scarface of the Kingston family, but that wasn’t him being humble at all.
In terms of combat abilities, they might be considered equal. But once Scarface entered battle mode, he would become extremely ferocious, as though he was on steroids. In particular, when he saw blood, he would almost go berserk like a menacing beast that didn’t feel any pain.
Iron Wolf had only fought with Scarface once a few years. But since then, he never wanted to fight with that madman again.
He thought that the tall and thin Lucas, who only had ordinary martial arts, was probably going to end up in a miserable state!
Scarface appeared in front of Lucas almost instantaneously. A cold light appeared in his hand, followed by a dagger stabbing toward Lucas’s chest.
This blow was extremely swift, and the people in the distance could only see a cold glint, let alone Lucas, who was right in front of him. How could he react in time?
Indeed, Lucas didn’t dodge at all. He remained in place like a fixed target.
Oh no! This thought quickly flashed in Iron Wolf’s mind, and his eyes immediately sank. Lucas Gray failed to dodge in time, and Scarface’s dagger will definitely stab him at such close range. He’s dead!
“Hahahaha! Lucas Gray, you claim you want to destroy us, but your strength is so mediocre. You can’t even block a single blow from our family’s top expert!”
“Hehehe, Scarface is the strongest person in the Kingston family, and Lucas Gray is going to die from being stabbed by Scarface’s dagger!”
“He deserves it! How dare he kick up a ruckus in our home with that mediocre strength of his? But he’s getting an easy way out by dying just like that!”
Lance, Marc, and the others laughed out loud with relief.
Seeing this scene from a short distance away, Edmund and Alexis were furious and shouted, “Lucas!”
Damon, Connor, and the others also immediately yelled, “Mr. Gray!”
