Rin howled angrily and rushed towards Richard. Richard trembled with fear and immediately hid behind the guards.
“Beat the grey one! It is the leader of these wild wolves. As long as it dies, the wild wolves won’t have any commands to follow,” Richard said viciously.
When Sylvia heard this, she immediately rushed over to Rin.
However, Rin was stronger than we had imagined. And its size was inherently its advantage. It knocked out two guards with its huge front paw.
Many guards also turned into wolves and began to bite the wild wolves, making the scene bloodier.
“Where are our other men? Call all the guards outside! They must all die today!” Richard shouted at his subordinates again.
“Yes, Prince Richard!”
The wild wolves attacked ferociously, but they were outnumbered.
As things stood, the chance that the dispute would be settled was slim. I was afraid there was another deadlock, and we might not be able to escape by that time.
So the best thing to do was catch Richard first.
I teamed up with Sylvia and slowly approached Richard.
But Richard reacted quickly. As soon as he saw me approaching, he immediately shouted at his men to surround and protect him.
The constant stream of guards made it impossible for me to get close to Richard quickly, so I had no choice but to deal with them first.
Rin was a good comrade-in-arms. Thanks to it protecting Sylvia, I could fight without any scruples.
But Richard still had so many people. I guessed he had dispatched everyone he could mobilize here.
He really went through so many troubles just to kill me. Wasn’t it so ridiculous?
My eyes turned bloodshot and cruel. My clothes were soaked in sweat, and the smell of blood that permeated the air made me feel disgusted. And the sight of Richard made me feel sick.
Suddenly, the rain started falling again, adding poignancy to the endless fight.
I glanced at Sylvia. After ensuring that she was safe, I started fighting again.
I quickly got rid of the people surrounding Richard. But when I was about to approach him, he took out a black pistol from his pocket.
He gave me a wicked grin, pointed his gun at Sylvia, and mouthed at me, “Three. Two. One.”
Sylvia was fighting with an enemy, so she was not aware of the situation.
My mind went blank in an instant.
Then without a second thought, I turned into a wolf and ran towards Sylvia.
There was a loud bang. The gun was fired.
I felt like the whole world quieted down. All I could see in my mind was Sylvia’s face.
“Rufus!”
Sylvia’s voice rang out in my ears. She looked at my wounded shoulder in disbelief with tears streaming down her face.
I reached out and wiped away her tears and gave her a reassuring smile to comfort her. “Don’t be afraid.”
Sylvia covered the hole in my shoulder with her trembling hand. “What… What should I do?”
I wanted to reassure her that I was okay to calm her down. But I found that I was in so much pain that I couldn’t speak.
The bullet pierced through my shoulder. Although it deviated from my heart, I still felt the strong burning sensation throughout my heart and the wound.
It was worse than I thought. I realized that I was hit by a silver bullet, a deadly weapon against werewolves.
Sylvia’s POV
When Rufus hit the ground, I felt the entire world around me collapse.
I rushed to hold Rufus in my trembling arms.
I tried my best to stop the wound on his shoulder from bleeding with my hands, but blood just continued to flow out no matter what I did. Quickly, my hands were stained with blood and my eyes turned into a similar shade.
“It’s okay. The bullet didn’t hit my heart, just my shoulder…” Rufus tried to smile and comfort me, but I could tell he was having a hard time.
I was not convinced either. Tears streamed down my face and I trembled in fear. “Rufus, don’t waste your energy talking. I’ll take you to the doctor right away.”
Rufus took my hand in his and held the wound on his shoulder with his other one. He nodded slowly, his eyes filled with pain. He tried to get up on his own, but he was too weak and helplessly slumped back into my arms.
His body was growing alarmingly cold and even his face was beginning to turn deathly pale. It was a sharp contrast to witness- a burning wound in his cold body.
Then, I also discovered that Rufus was actually hit by a silver bullet! This was a werewolf’s deadliest weapon. Once hit by a silver bullet, the wounds would begin to spread throughout the entire body, burning the victim to death. It was the most painful way to die. A bullet like this was forbidden in this country. I couldn’t believe Richard would dare to procure such a thing just to kill Rufus!
“Are you crazy?” I roared at Richard, my heart surging with the intent to kill.
Holding his pistol, Richard let out an arrogant laugh. “Look, I already warned you and even offered for you to die on your own terms, but you were just too stubborn.”
“I’m going to kill you!” I gritted my teeth, glaring at Richard.
My head was now buzzing with a desire for violence, which heightened all of my senses. The surroundings seemed to have lost all color in my sight. Only black and white.
I locked eyes with Richard, who was still staring down at us. The idea of killing him became clearer and clearer to me.
Richard sneered and smiled in amusement. “Who will? Just you? Even if you were fast enough, do you think you could outrun my bullet?”
He raised his hand and pointed the pistol at Rufus. “Suppose I shoot another bullet into Rufus’ body, do you think he could still survive?”
