The Formidable Son-In-Law: The Charismatic Lucas Gray Chapter 711 - Traces Vanish

Chapter 711: Traces Vanish

After Gaia and Herman heard what Lucas said, they both threw their heads back and guffawed loudly, as if they had heard the greatest joke ever.
“Hahaha, punk, I have to say, you’re really brazen! You can actually still crack such a joke in front of me while being held at gunpoint by Gaia. Hah, your courage is really rare! It’s a pity that you seem to be lacking a brain!
“Don’t forget. Your life is in my hands now. And if I want you to die, you’ll drop dead in front of me right away! Where do you get the guts to negotiate or threaten us?”
After mocking him coldly, Herman paused for a while before continuing, “I know your martial arts are good. But in the face of the power of bullets, your mere body made of flesh can never dodge them!
“However, it would really be a pity if I killed you. How about this? I’ll give you another chance. If you surrender to me and pledge your allegiance to me, I won’t kill you and instead offer you some benefits! Think about it!” Herman said arrogantly, as if he was being benevolent and offering Lucas some kindness.
He had indeed wanted to kill Lucas directly, which was also the task Vince had given him.
However, now that the elite expert often by his side had been killed by Lucas, whose physical strength was even stronger than Freddie’s, he reckoned that his family would become even more powerful if he could recruit Lucas.
Herman believed that if Lucas wasn’t a fool, he should know what the better choice between death and allegiance was.
Hearing this, Vince immediately frowned.
He had clearly given Herman the task to kill Lucas, but he didn’t expect that Herman would actually dare to defy him and take Lucas under his wing.
Even though Herman was smart, Vince was displeased with him for behaving presumptuously.
Besides, Herman knew very well that his action would definitely irk Vince to a certain extent, but he couldn’t care less at the moment.
Herman wasn’t a fool, and he had long been able to tell that the Smiths just wanted to choose an obedient family in California to help them control the entire state. The reason Vince chose him was due to the Walkers’ status. But in fact, Vince could also abandon him at any time, just like he had abandoned Lance, whom he had used as a pawn.
In that case, why should he obey all of Vince’s instructions?
If he could rely on his own abilities to make the Walkers become the true hegemon of California, he would have what it took to deal with the Smiths even if they were against him.
After all, the Walkers dominated California, while the Smiths’ roots were far away in DC.
As the saying went, one could never beat the local tyrant. Once his family dominated California, the Smiths wouldn’t be able to do anything to him even though the Smiths were one of the eight giants of DC!
Lucas’s expression became bizarre after he heard Herman’s request for him to pledge allegiance to him.
The Walkers were really brazen!
There was probably no one who could make Lucas, the respectable captain of the Falcon Regiment, who was also known as the God of War, pledge allegiance to them!
Lucas shook his head. “I’m afraid you’re not qualified to make me pledge allegiance to you.”
Herman narrowed his eyes threateningly. “So, are you rejecting me? In that case, just die! Do it!”
Hearing the sudden command, Gaia, holding his pistol aimed at Lucas’s head, immediately pulled the trigger without any hesitation.
Bang!
The loud gunshots immediately caused many people in the hall to scream.
They were all familiar with guns. But if Gaia accidentally misfired, it would be easy to accidentally injure the people here.
But after a short commotion among the panicked crowd, everyone was even more shocked to find that Lucas, whom they all thought would be shot dead, actually didn’t die!
He not only dodged the bullet fired by Gaia that was almost impossible to avoid, but he even appeared behind Gaia, several meters away, as if he had teleported!
No one could see how Lucas had actually moved!
At this moment, the most shocked person was none other than Gaia himself!
The important reason that Gaia could earn himself the title of ‘Sharpshooter’ was his amazing dynamic vision.
For example, the vision chart that people looked at during vision tests was a typical static vision chart. Almost everyone had static vision, but the strength of dynamic vision varied between individuals.
Dynamic vision was an extremely important component of human vision, and it referred to the human eye’s ability to capture moving images and observe the details of moving targets. This ability was accompanied by processing the information of the captured images in the brain within a short period of time and the organism’s corresponding reaction.
This was why Gaia could quickly capture the trajectory of moving objects in front of him and shoot accurately in time. It was also the reason for his outstanding performance in many professional tournaments and his title of Sharpshooter!
But under Gaia’s dynamic vision, which he had always been proud of, he discovered Lucas had vanished out of sight almost at the instant he fired!
Yes, it was as if he had disappeared abruptly!
Gaia had imagined the scene of the bullet from the pistol in his hand rotating at high speed while flying toward Lucas. Its trajectory was very clear, but the target had vanished without a trace!
It was almost Gaia’s first time encountering such a situation. Excluding supernatural powers and so on, the only plausible reason was that Lucas was faster than the bullet, so much so that even his sharp eyes couldn’t capture his traces!
But was it really possible for humans to be so terrifying?
Gaia was astonished!
But the next moment, a breath that gave him the creeps had already appeared on his neck, giving him goosebumps!
Lucas’s indifferent and cold voice sounded as if the reaper had descended.. “The thing you’re holding is useless to me!”
