Wilderness Redemption Tour
Chapter 67 Leviticus Cornwall
From the moment the barrel of the gun hit his chest, John raised his hands high, backed away, and pretended to be timid and panicked as he explained:
"Hey! Brother, this is not a toy, be careful..."
"...Have we met before? I'm just a worker at a nearby ranch. You may have mistaken me..."
He said a lot of gibberish, but the other party turned a deaf ear to him. No matter what he said, he remained unmoved and still held the gun steadily with both hands.
Only after forcing John back to the dirt road in front of the tavern did the thin-haired leader take two steps forward and ask condescendingly, "Where is Dutch van der Linde?"
John replied without hesitation: "I don't know any Dutch van der Linde, you got the wrong person, I'm just a shepherd who drives sheep to the auction..."
Perhaps because John was too noisy, or perhaps because he blamed John for not telling the truth, the gunman who pointed the gun at him hit him hard in the chest with the barrel of the gun. John groaned in pain, and the rest of his words were blocked in his throat.
The big shot in Lin Yan's eyes didn't even look at John. He took out a pocket watch with a pure gold bracelet from his vest pocket, opened it to check the time, and said nonchalantly: "You think I can't find out who you are because you look different from the one on the wanted poster? Huh? John Marston."
John's expression remained unchanged when he heard his name being called, but his heart began to beat wildly. Lin Yan, who was standing behind him, was also startled. He clearly remembered that Arthur had said before he left in the morning that John's appearance was very different from the one on the wanted list, and even people who had seen him before would find it difficult to recognize him now.
"John Marston?" John repeated in surprise, then shook his head and denied it: "No, no, no, I'm not John Marston. Rip Van Winkle is my name."
"Okay, I don't have time to listen to your quibbling." The other party closed the pocket watch cover impatiently, and then stuffed the pure gold pocket watch back into his vest pocket.
The next moment, he half turned around and walked towards Valentine Bank, instructing his men as he walked:
"First, capture these guys, then spread the word in town and lure Van der Linde out. It would be best if we can capture him alive, but dead is fine too. I want to let them know that Leviticus Cornwall is not someone they can afford to mess with."
Cornwall!
Hearing this surname, Lin Yan was shocked. The coal tar factory next to Valentine was named after Cornwall. Could he be the owner of the factory? Was the oil carriage that Arthur and I robbed that day his?
Could it be that he discovered the carriage robbery and brought people here to settle the score with us?
Lin Yan's mind was racing with thoughts, and as soon as this idea came out, he rejected it.
No, it shouldn't be this. It's just an oil truck, he shouldn't go to such great lengths. Besides, the person he was looking for was Dutch, but Dutch had nothing to do with this matter, it must be something else that I don't know about!
All the thoughts happened in just a moment. After Leviticus Cornwall said that he wanted to capture all three of them, Lin Yan decisively opened the Eye of Death and launched the attack without any warning.
When John completely left the tavern, Sadie had hinted to Lin Yan whether he should take action, but Lin Yan's idea at the time was that since things had come to this, there would be almost no difference between taking action early or late, so it would be better to let the plot continue and find out who the other party was and what they wanted to do.
Now that the "villain" Cornwall has left the stage, it is obviously time for the protagonists to fight.
As for why I didn't give Sadie a hint before I started, please, they are now almost surrounded by the Cornish people in a fan shape. If you make any small moves, not only your companions can see it, but the enemy can also see it. Instead of letting the enemy prepare, it is better to clear a wave yourself first, just as a signal to Sadie and John.
The Eye of Death was activated, and the originally smooth game world was immediately "stuck" into a PPT with only one frame per second. Except for Lin Yan, everyone's movements became extremely slow, even the bullets fired.
Lin Yan pointed the muzzle of his revolver at the head of the gunman who was pointing at John, and the next moment, he pulled the trigger without any hesitation. Because he was worried that the shotgun in the other party's hand would go off accidentally and hit John, he also thoughtfully fired a shot at the position of the shotgun trigger.
Then, he turned his gaze and swung his gun, sweeping at the enemies who were pointing their guns at Sadie and himself in turn. Every time he looked at someone, a ball of fire lit up from the muzzle of the gun.
After firing all six rounds, he put the revolver back into his holster and pulled out another.
After shooting at the other two armed enemies in front of John again, Lin Yan closed the Eye of Death.
Everything happened in less than a second. Anyone who surrounded the three people and pointed a gun at them was rewarded with a "peanut" by Lin Yan.
Among the three, Sadie was already holding a gun and ready to go. Seeing Lin Yan launching an attack, she also fearlessly launched an attack on the enemy closest to her.
John was being pointed at with a gun, and his nerves were extremely sensitive. The moment he heard the gunshot, he suddenly threw himself to the side, and as he fell to the ground, he pulled out the revolver at his waist and shot the gunman who was pointing at him.
After the flow of time returned to normal, Lin Yan and his two companions miraculously reversed the situation when they were surrounded and almost in a dead end, and no one was injured.
After killing the last enemy who attempted to resist, the three looked in the direction where Leviticus Cornwall had left. The streets were empty at this time, and there was no sign of Cornwall.
"That old bastard runs really fast." John spat with disdain.
"Don't worry about him. If we don't leave now, we won't be able to leave later." Lin Yan stared at the police station at the end of the street with some worry.
John looked in the direction of the police station, then turned his head to look at the grocery store, and said regretfully but firmly: "Let's go!"
Fortunately, the horses of the three were in front of the grocery store nearby. In order to save time, John didn't even take the carriage and the three sheep tied to the carriage. He cut the rope with his dagger, rode on the horse, and fled from Valentine with Lin Yanshadi.
It was not until he escaped from the town that Lin Yan heard the sound of police whistles in the town.
The packhorse under John's crotch was the slowest. In order to take his speed into consideration, Lin Yan and Sadie did not blindly urge their mounts to use their full strength.
Seeing that the two were waiting for him, John changed his usual slow and unhurried manner and shouted anxiously, "Go back quickly! Go back and tell Dutch about this! We can't stay near Valentine any longer, the camp must be moved as soon as possible!"
