The Death List Novel - Chapter 161

Chapter 161 Guarantee
“Sigh!” Just as she reached the front of the last compartment, Liv’s feet slipped as if she had stepped on a soft layer of cream cake.

“Liv, be careful!” Dean David responded quickly and grabbed her arm. They were now at the junction of two carriages. If they fell here, they might fall off the train and be pulled under the tracks and shattered.

“What happened inside?” Liv covered her mouth and shouted softly. Even though the carriage in front of her was separated by a wooden door, she could smell a strong smell of blood. A pool of blood was slowly expanding through the crack in the compartment partition door, dripping down onto the tracks under the train like an unshut faucet.

“Liv, Elaine, Mira, Lucy, you guys go back to the central carriage. There’s no need for you here!” Director David pressed his hand on the carriage door and said slowly.

“Principal, you must be careful!” The few fairy tales exchanged glances and did not insist on staying.

Originally, they were the scientists who came to pick up the carriage, but they weren’t enemies with the old man. But judging from the current situation, it was clear that the scientists were no longer in need of them. Moreover, the old man’s fighting style was quite special, making it difficult for others to cooperate. Staying behind would hinder him.

Just as Liv and the others turned around and left, Dean David’s face tightened. He retracted his hand from the carriage door as if he had been electrocuted. At the same time, he shouted, “Spread out!”

“Boom!” The carriage door in front of them seemed to be filled with high explosives, and it suddenly exploded. Countless sharp metal and wood fragments pounced towards the five of them like a violent storm, even mixed with some of their limbs and meat.

“Humph!” In Dean David’s clockwork pupils, only one hand started to spin wildly. In an instant, it was unable to recognize its movement track. The entire clockwork pupils turned into a black hole as deep as an abyss.

With the old man’s black hole pupils as the core, space rippled like water rippled from a stone, rippling towards the surroundings. The metal and wood fragments that touched the spatial ripples slowed down strangely. In everyone’s eyes, it was as clear as a snail crawling, as if it had become the playback of a slow motion movie.

The Fairy Tale Girl Group had already reacted the moment the old man reminded them.

The red cannon behind Liv instantly spread its wings and transformed into a death scythe. The tip of the scythe circled around the front door of the rear carriage, hooked the last carriage window from the side, and jumped out of the carriage connection. The young girl’s body drew a beautiful arc in the air, using the Reaper Sickle as its axis of rotation, with the help of centrifugal force, like a merry-go-round, she pounced into the rear carriage through the side window of the train.

The black-haired girl Mira’s weapon was a blade whip. With a flick of her hand, she hooked the window on the other side of the carriage and threw herself into the carriage in the same position. The two fairy-tale girls who rushed into the carriage did not immediately find cover for themselves. Instead, they flicked their weapons and the Reaper Scythe and Blade Whip once again poked out of the carriage window like poisonous snakes.

Elaine twisted her waist nimbly in the air as she pointed at the blade of the Reaper Sickle and leapt through the window. Lucy grabbed the whip with one hand and asked Mira to pull her into the carriage. Lucy’s weapon was steam steel gloves, and the whip wouldn’t hurt her palm.

After the four fairy tales girls were safe, Dean David extended his hands and gently waved them. The metal and wood fragments that were slowly moving in the air seemed to be carried aside by a gust of wind, revealing a hole that the old man could pass through.

At the same time, the black hole in Dean David’s eyes returned to the shape of a clock. However, there was a strange addition of one needle to the black hole, turning it into two needles.

“Bang, bang, bang!” The spatial ripples in the air disappeared, and the broken pieces of iron wood returned to their berserk posture, turning the carriage behind Dean David into a sieve like a rain hitting a banana. However, with the door blocking them, they were no longer able to harm the fairy tale girls in the carriage.

“Pa pa pa pa!” Clapping sounds rang out in front of the old man.

“Time ability, or some kind of domain? What a formidable old man!”

Three people were exposed in the last carriage where the door had exploded through the junction of the carriages. Standing at the front was a gigantic figure. The carriage that was 2.7 meters tall could not even make him stand up straight. He could only lower his head and bend down. From his face, he could vaguely recognize Dr. Leo’s appearance.

Behind the giant, a fierce young man wearing a German military uniform was standing side by side with a beautiful young woman. The young man stuck out his tongue and licked his lips. His scarlet eyes did not conceal the viciousness in his eyes and were greedily staring at the old man.

“Who are you?” Dean David frowned slightly. He knew both the giant and the young woman. They were the Roberts who had surrendered to the Allies, but the other young man in front of him gave him an indescribable strange feeling.

“Dean, he is the Nazi officer who killed Professor Catherine!”

Liv shouted angrily from behind David through the sieve-like door of the carriage. Joey fought Little Red Riding Hood face to face, and from Indiana Jones’ description of the enemy, the fairy tale girl could easily identify the murderer of Professor Catherine.

“You killed Catherine!” Dean David’s aged body trembled slightly as he asked in a painful tone.

“Catelyn … You mean my work in Casablanca? Sorry, I don’t remember it for a while. I don’t remember its name very well.” Joey tapped his temple with his finger and laughed cruelly, “Here, it’s called Venus the Decapitated!”

“Director, let’s join the battle. We need to avenge Professor Catherine!” The tattered carriage door behind David was pushed open, and the fairy-tale girls stood at the door with red eyes.

“No, Liv, it’s time for you to go back. Dr. Jones needs you more!” Dean David took a deep breath and turned to look at Joey. He slowly said, “Killer always kills. So, are you prepared to be killed by someone else?”

“Haha, as long as you can do it, I’m not afraid of death!” Joey’s pupils shrank as he grinned wildly.

“Dr. Leo, Dr. Keller, what about you? Are you still on the side of justice?” David stopped paying attention to Joey and turned to the giant and the young woman.

“Director David, it’s too late” Giant Leo glanced at the carriage, a trace of pain flashing in his eyes. “I’ve already done something unforgivable!”

David scanned the carriage and sighed as he looked at the corpses on the ground. Most of the scientists’ limbs were twisted, as if they had been torn apart by violence. The German officer in front of him was a sniper in the intelligence. He obviously did not possess this kind of power. They were all killed by giants.

These scientists were of such high standing in the Allies that no matter if Leo Robert was coerced by the Germans or not, he could not be forgiven. As Leo said, they had no choice.

“Dr. Leo, even if you can’t fight for the Justice Alliance, please do nothing. My enemy is only the German Nazi in front of me. Personally, I’m not willing to attack you!” David said expressionlessly.

“Leo!” Behind the giant, Dr. Keller pulled on his husband’s sleeve and shook his head at him.

The Roberts had already made a deal with Joey. Leo turned into a giant and killed the scientists in the carriage, cutting off their path to the Alliance Army. They promised to return to Berlin for a military trial, while Joey released Dr. Keller and freed her.

The giant looked at his wife behind him with a hesitant expression. He understood what Dr. Keller meant. This was to make him give up fighting the old man and not help Joey.

Help Joey, they can get leniency in the military trial, not help Joey, can let them get the redemption of the soul. If the Gentlemen’s Alliance failed in this operation, they would not even have to return to their homeland and find a neutral country to live in seclusion for the rest of their lives.

Seeing Leo’s hesitation, Joey’s eyes flashed with cunning. He could no longer use Dr. Keller to blackmail and intimidate Giant Leo. Their previous deal had ended, and if he did not keep his promise, he would instead push Leo Robert to the Justice Alliance.

Moreover, fighting against experts was different from killing a group of powerless scientists. If Leo was dissatisfied and rebelled at the critical moment, it would be better for him to stand by and watch.

“Dr. Leo, kill this old fellow. I swear to the Iron Cross medal on my chest that I will use this merit to erase your betrayal so that you don’t have to go to court!” Joey raised his hand to hold the Iron Cross Medal and said indifferently.

The Roberts trembled. Giant Leo turned around and glared at Joey with his bell-sized bull eyes. “Promise?” He said in a low voice.

“I promise!” Joey said solemnly with a sullen face.

Dr. Keller sighed and took a step back, letting go of Leo’s arm. She knew very well that the German sniper’s words had completely strengthened her husband’s willpower to swing left and right. They could not turn their heads back.

Unlike her, Leo Robert was more patriotic. Ever since she betrayed the Gentlemen’s Union without telling her husband, Leo had been depressed and dissatisfied with her. Even though Joey had intimidated and killed so many Allied scientists just now, it wasn’t as if Leo was venting his grievances.

From JEM’s feedback on the Battle of Casablanca, Dr. Keller knew that the German sniper in front of him had accumulated significant merits in the battle. While credit and crime are not offsets, Scolzny will not pursue betrayal in the report as long as Joey is determined to defend the Roberts.

Moreover, they still possessed the perfect Giant Potion, which was extremely important to the empire. As long as someone protected them, the military trial would not be impossible to accommodate.

“Alright, I believe you!” Giant Leo’s eyes shone brightly. It was as if a brand new energy had been injected into his decadent body. He let out a long howl and stood up. With one arm, he tore off the roof of the carriage above his head like a rag and threw it at Dean David.
