Supreme Mars

Killers

Hearing that, everyone around was stunned with eyes wide open.

Especially Nadine, who stared at him with a dumfounded expression.

“My lord, what did you just say? He’s Hunter?”

Obviously, the name of ‘Hunter’ was known to everyone here more or less.

He had been the one behind all kinds of conspiracy. Five years ago, it was he who kidnapped both Leo

and Lydia. And it was he again who filmed what Leo had done to her that night.

While Leo happened to hear Bertie mention about the name of ‘Hunter’ recently. But no one knew

exactly how he looked like.

In order to confuse Leo and others, a fake one was made—Homer Gibbs, a former warrant officer of

Emerdale Military Region.

But now the real ‘Hunter’ finally showed up.

Ted paused for seconds. Then he sneered, “What Hunter? I don’t know what you are talking about.”

“But there’s one thing you get it right. It was I indeed who filmed the video five years ago. And I sent it

to Bertie and asked him to keep it safe so as to make it a stepping stone for my next move.”

Leo still remained composed, unspoken. However, Nadine had been filled with murderous look on her

face. If it weren’t because Leo hadn’t given out the order, she would have rushed over to attack.

Though Ted didn’t acknowledge being the real ‘Hunter’, Nadine could tell that he must be working for

Phantom.

While Marcus still stared at Ted, looking blank with great disbelief, “Ted, what do you mean? You took

advantage of my family as a mere part of your plan?”

“You’re right.” Ted no longer covered up his own intention. Then he continued, “I only follow the order of

my superior. My plan has started ever since I sent the video to Bertie five years ago. While the Wilson

Family is just a pawn of my chess game.”

“What…what do you mean?”

“Still confused?” Ted cast Marcus a cold glimpse. Then his chilling voice sounded, “I faked both my

humbleness and loyalty in the old days. In my view, both you and your grandpa are nothing but

disgusting cowards.”

What he said struck Marcus like a bolt from the blue. His face went ghastly pale with his eyes frozen.

Even till now he could never believe that the most trustworthy butler of theirs actually killed his

grandpa.

“I have been working with Marco for twenty years, while during the beginning fifteen of which I worked

as his business partner. And I turned to be the butler five years ago. Do you know why?” asked Ted

with a horrible smile while looking at Marcus.

But Marcus only shook his head, looking confused still.

“That’s because Phantom has been keeping an eye on this city long ago. We wanna make it our first

stronghold. In order to achieve it, we would have to control the top 1 family in this city. So we made the

Wilsons our first target.

So we started our plan with a form of business partnership so as to take control of the Wilsons.”

“The plan went on smoothly. But I did overestimate your grandpa too much. At the very beginning, I

had planned to make your family the top 1 in Emerdale in ten years. But I have never expected that the

Wilsons still stayed as one of the top 4 only. You really disappoint me so much.”

Marcus still remained silent. But he started trembling more violently.

He once heard about how his family started the business from his grandpa.

They grew the business from internet industry, while the opportunity of which to start was provided by

the commercial partner of Marco.

In 1990s, the economy just started to show the signal of being thriving. While internet back then was Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

much less widespread than it was today. But Ted had noticed the potential long ago and he led the

Wilsons to reclaim this land before anyone else realized its value. And the business kept going till now.

Actually, if it weren’t because of the efforts of Ted, the Wilsons would still have been a family of nobody.

“You took advantage of my family for all these?” Marcus could never believe that.

“That’s right.” Ted stood still with hands resting behind his back. His face still remained indifferent,

“When I was totally disappointed with the Wilsons, something jarring the whole city suddenly

happened.”

While saying that, he looked at Leo.

Then everyone here suddenly realized what he was referring to—it was the wedding of Kate back then,

while at that night the bridegroom disappeared.

“It’s you behind all these…” Leo glared at him with horrible eyes.

“No. I am not that powerful enough.” Ted shook his head to say seriously, “Someone else is behind all

these. But you will never figure it out for the rest of your life.”

Leo turned to be a bit sullen. But he held back his anger to wait for Ted to finish the rest.

“When I learned that you disappeared from the wedding, I hurried to the spot and happened to film

what you were doing to Lydia. While my instinct told me that what I filmed would work effectively

someday.”

Ted added emotionlessly again, “But as I still needed to keep my identity in the dark, keeping it on my

own would be a bad idea. So I sent it to Bertie so as to plant another pawn among the Stewarts. As

exactly as I expected, both the Stewarts and the Lawsons started to decline. However, it has never

occurred to me that Marco, that old bastard, actually gave away the business we have been working for

two decades. If so, all my efforts will go in vain!”

“So you kill him?” Leo sneered.

“Yeah. His value has gone ever since a tinge of his intention to give away all the property popped out in

his mind.” Ted sneered with horrible voice.

Hearing all these, Marcus seemed to be in the middle of obnubilation. He couldn’t collect himself after

being struck so greatly. While Leo also turned to be smoldering as he hated such a betrayer even more

than Marco and Marcus.

“You shouldn’t have shown your real identity so soon. Now I know every detail about your plan.” Leo

said to Ted.

“Don’t worry. Because everyone of you has to be dead right now.”

Ted grinned at him, “Dead people will never talk.”

“Really?”

Composed still, Leo said casually, “You seem to be confused about the situation. Both I and Nadine

should be able to defeat you when we fight together.”

Ted shook his head, “The number has never been the factor to decide the result. I know both of you are

strong. But I am much stronger.”

As soon as he finished, he let out a strong aura, much stronger than that blind Demon. Even Nadine

turned to be more serious as soon as she noticed that.

“So what now?”

Ted sneered, “It will never change the result even if you both fight me together. You, both, will end up

as two dead bodies.”

Marcus shivered even more because of his arrogant words. He had never expected that he would have

to rely on Leo to save his own life one day.

After all, he could probably still stay alive if Leo stood till the last moment. However, Ted would

definitely kill him to keep the secret.

However, Leo just let out a casual smile while looking at him, who had withdrawn his aura, “Well, you

know nothing about what’s the meaning of being strong.”

“What?” Leo stared at him, looking a bit confused. He did show a much stronger power than Leo, he

reckoned.

When Nadine was about to attack, Leo stopped her and then smiled, “We don’t need to fight him

ourselves.”

Before Nadine could utter, Leo looked at Ted again, “You are wrong about one thing. Sometimes the

number indeed decides the final result.”

After saying that, he made a snap.

Suddenly, countless shadows of figures gathered around from all directions. Then they landed on the

branches of the trees around.

When everyone present took a second look, they noticed that there were actually all kinds of people

varying from appearances to figures. But there was one thing in common—they were all bearing

bloodthirsty look in their eyes.

“They…they were all assassins? Killers?”

Countless killers all gathered around at the same time. Even Ted himself was rendered pale-looking.

“You’re right.”

Leo smiled and then added, “Let’s play a game, shall we?”
