Chapter 212 Killing The Ultimate Rage (Part Two)
It was obvious that Philip's men were unable to fight the mercenaries' severe and well-trained attack. One after the other, his men were defeated and fell down in no time. Shawn stood there and watched them fight. Suddenly, he burst out laughing. He was amused by the bloodbath. The XK Intelligence Agency mercenary stood beside him, shocked by the inhumane laugh.
From the moment the killing began, Shawn had not averted his eyes. He was absorbed into the fight, which was now becoming more and more thrilling and it fascinated him. After a short gunfight, the mercenaries were no longer using their weapons. They started tussling with Philip's men, who were now utterly scared and distressed by the fight. But as soon as the killing started, there was no way they could escape. The mercenaries also made a perimeter around the place, pushing back anyone who struggled to break through. There was not the slightest hope for Philip's people. They were all but doomed.
The killing did not last long. At the end, everyone in the perimeter were down except Philip himself. Some of the injured were crawling on the ground on their bruised hands and knees, still struggling to escape with their life. The rest were either dead, or unconscious or just too injured to get up again.
"Oops, what cruelty! Do you think Brian would be mad?" Shawn mocked. He was very much intrigued by the sight which was unfolded in front of him. His enchanting eyes filled with indescribable thrill and obsession. "Looks like Little Brian is far more cruel than Richie. No doubt he could defeat anybody who stands in his way. He was born to rule and dominate," he replied to his own question.
As he stood there, watching the fight come to a close, Shawn's mind drifted away to how Brian had behaved earlier and what had happened to Molly today. And the moment Molly's face came to his mind, his eyes narrowed and his brows knotted in dissatisfaction. For more reasons than one, he did not appreciate Molly being with Brian. He snorted lightly at the thought.
"Philip is one tough guy," said one of the mercenaries, as he watched Philip tussling with two mercenaries simultaneously. With all the other men down, Philip was the only man left whom the mercenaries needed to take out. And taking out Philip obviously wasn't going to be easy. Though Philip could not gain any advantage while fighting the two mercenaries, he wasn't ready to show any signs of defeat.
"Yes, he is," Shawn sneered coldly at the sight. No doubt that a man who could easily auction the world's most precious antiques and collections publicly was bound to have prominent strength and power, both mentally and physically. 'Only if he had just minded his own business and carried on with his 'career', all of this wouldn't have happened. He overreached and provoked Brian, the last person he should have provoked, ' Shawn thought, feeling pity for Philip's fortune. As far as he could remember, no one had ever gotten a happy ending after provoking Brian. Ever since he had known him, he had always been so vindictive.
He would even scheme to get even with Richie one day, eventually.
Shawn remembered their childhood when Brian used to bully him. A sudden chill ran through his veins. His wicked, yet enchanting face slowly turned to show an uncanny, vicious side of him, 'He is bound to pay his debt one day, ' he gnashed his teeth, determined to get back at him.
Shawn got bored after watching Philip's struggle for a little while longer. He rotated his gun habitually around his finger. His gun had the words "K Soul" engraved on its barrel. He put it away, adjusted himself and walked slowly towards Philip.
Philip noticed Shawn approaching him. He knew that Shawn had been on the island for merely more than a month. Philip had also dispatched several men to check his background, but no one ever returned and Shawn's identity remained a mystery to him.
Philip glanced at Shawn, who was advancing slowly towards him. With some effort, Philip pushed back the two mercenaries who were still entangled in the fight with him.
"Who the hell are you? What does any of this have to do with you?" he asked coldly to Shawn. Shawn shrugged slightly, but did not respond. As he approached, the corners of his eyes lifted with sly contempt and arrogance.
As far as Shawn could tell, Philip had always been supercilious. With so many years of experience in secret and illegal auctioning, who knows how many lives he had taken? He would have never thought that someday he would be the victim, caught in such a situation. What he was going through at that very moment was the last thing he would have ever imagined happening to him.
"Nothing has ever frightened me. Come on and show me what you got!" jeered Philip. He strove to control his outburst of rage as he thought about the damage to his place and his men who were killed. Also, his life was at stake. This might be the last day of his life. His lips quivered with intolerable rage and fear.
Seeing how infuriated and afraid Philip was, a cunning smile came over Shawn's face. "Well, I will just let you know this before you die. You have been doing pretty well here, on QY Island for so many years. But you were never satisfied. You thought that you could always get your hands on whatever you wanted eventually, no matter who you had to confront. You know, when you walk barefooted for too long, you are bound to step on something sharp at some point. You got to stop and avoid the sharps before it pricks you. Just like how in your life, there are always some people...certain people whom you should never offend."
Philip's eyes narrowed in humiliation,"What do you mean?" he asked.
"What do I mean?" Shawn rolled his eyes and sighed; he was almost insulted by such a stupid question. "I mean, you offended someone that you shouldn't have offended! You understand?" He
raised his voice as he spoke the last sentence,"You didn't have to drag so many people into trouble, you know. Look how this has ended now. You should never have offended Brian in the first place," he continued.
Philip's eyes became dull and gloomy. Looking at Shawn's wicked, shifty face and hearing him gloat over his tragedy, Philip had a sudden urge to rip apart his pretty face.
"I know you only did all this for money. Then why did you go beyond what was necessary? Why didn't you just take the Pluto and leave? What was the need for taking her and drugging her?" A shadow of pity swept through Shawn's face as he spoke,"Look how this has ended for you. You should know that there is no escape for anyone who hurts or offends him. He always wins in the end. Just like how he has won now." He stopped talking and looked at the men on the ground.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
