An Understated Dominance
by Marina Vittori
Chapter 178
There was pin–drop silence in the private room.
At a loss for words, everyone was aghast at what had happened. No one expected the twist of events.
Just a minute ago. Nigel was their hero, flaunting his strength and skills, but now he was lying helplessly on the ground like a dead dog.
How could this bald guy be so powerful?
“H–how dare you hurt me? Do you know who I am? I’m Nigel Lin—”
“Shut the hell up!” With a crack, the bald man stepped on Nigel’s leg and broke it.
Nigel wailed in pain, with cold sweat appearing on his forehead.
“If you’ve got the nerve, tell me your names!” Nigel gritted his teeth, his eyes flashing with rage.
“Listen up! My name is Brent Garcia, and this is my brother, Wade Garcia!” The bald man in green announced loudly.
“Brent Garcia, Wade Garcia? Could it be…are you guys the Four Scoundrels?” Nigel’s pupils shrank in fear.
“The Four Scoundrels!” Everyone was shocked at the revelation.
The Four Scoundrels was a notorious group of merciless and vicious outlaws that terrorized the Southern province.
These ruffians were infamous for their ruthlessness, and they would stop at nothing to achieve their goals!
Wherever they went, destruction and calamity followed. Countless elites in the Southern province were terrified of the Four Scoundrels, living in constant fear and anxiety.
After learning the identities of the two men, all the girls panicked.
“This is bad!” Claudia furrowed her brows.
The Four Scoundrels were all martial artists with incredible internal energy. Brent and Wade were said to be even stronger than Thor.
It was already difficult enough to deal with one person.
Now, there were two of them at the same time, undoubtedly making things worse. If she were alone, she might still have a chance to escape.
The problem was that she had to protect Sheila as well.
With her previous injuries, Claudia had no chance of winning if she had to go up against two villains simultaneously.
“Brent! I’m warning you, everyone here Is of elite status. You’d better not mess around!” Nigel shouted bravely.
“Who cares if we cause trouble? You’re nothing but a plece of shit!” Brent kicked Nigel forcefully, sending him flying into the crowd.
Amidst the screaming and chaos, Claudia suddenly sprang into action!
She drew her dagger and lunged like a cheetah toward Brent’s throat, hoping to take out one of the two opponents.
In a fair fight, she knew that she was no match for either of them.
By taking out one person, her chances of winning would significantly increase!
Although it was a good plan, Brent was no fool.
As the dagger came at him, he quickly dodged aside and slammed his shoulder into Claudia’s chest.
She grunted and staggered back, but before she could regain her footing, Brent punched her again with tremendous force.
Desperately, Claudia lifted her arm to block the blow. There was a loud thud as Claudia was thrown back once more.
Her arm hanging limply, she spat out a mouthful of blood. Her internal injuries had opened up again.
“Ms. Doyle, if you were at full strength, you might be able to put up a fight with me for a few rounds. In this state, however, I suggest you surrender,” Brent sneered at her.
Claudia’s face darkened, and she rushed at nim again with her dagger.
After they exchanged blows for a few rounds, Claudia was punched heavily in the stomach.
She fell to the ground, unable to stand on her feet.
“It’s over, it’s all over!”
“Even Mr. Lincoln and Ms. Doyle were defeated. Who else can stop them?”
“What should we do? I don’t want to diel”
Seeing Claudia defeated, the girls were on the verge of tears. Their last glimmer of hope was now gone.
“Wade, take Ms. Murray away. I want to have some fun with the beautiful ladies here first,” Brent said with a wicked grin.
“Listen up. all of you. If you don’t want to die, take off your clothes. Otherwise, you’ll have to bear the consequences of inciting my anger!” As soon as he spoke, all the girls turned pale with fear.
Were they going to be violated by this pervert?
“Ms. Murray, come with me.” Wade, the bald guy in black, stepped forward and approached Sheila.
“Stop right there!” Suddenly, Ruth grabbed a fruit knile and stood in front of Sheila.
“I’m warning you, don’t come any closer, or Ill stab you!”
“Get lost!” Without saying another word, Wade swung his hand toward Ruth.
The energy gathered around Wade’s hand was strong enough to whip up a wind around them.
At the crucial moment, a hand suddenly reached out and grabbed Wade’s wrist. Wade’s palm was frozen, inches from Ruth’s face.
“You can bully the others, but you can’t touch these two,” Dustin said calmly.
“How dare you meddle in other people’s business? You’re asking for it!” Wade’s expression turned ugly, and he raised his other fist to strike at Dustin’s head.
Dustin snorted lightly and made the first move. He punched Wade in the chest, his moves as quick as lightning.
With a dull thud, an invisible beam of energy pierced through Wade’s back, shattering a wine bottle several feet away.
Wade shuddered and slumped to the ground, unconscious.
“Wade!” Brent’s face contorted with anger.
“How dare you hurt my brother? I’ll send you to hell!” He charged forward like a wild bull and threw a punch directly at Dustin’s face.
Dustin caught his fist with one hand and squeezed it gently.
With a loud crack, the bones in Brent’s fist shattered. Blood and flesh splattered everywhere.
Before he could register the pain. Dustin grabbed his collar and slammed him hard against the wall like a sandbag, creating a gaping hole.
Brent hung helplessly on the wall, bleeding profusely and unable to move.
“I wanted to have a decent conversation with you guys, but you had to resort to violence.” Dustin patted the dirt off his clothes indifferently, as if defeating both of the bald guys was a trivial matter.
Everyone present was dumbfounded was stunned at Dustin’s nonchalance, including Sheila, Claudia, and Nigel.
Dustin managed to defeat both of them with just two moves.
It was unthinkable that two of the invincible Four Scoundrels would be trounced and beaten up by a thin, frail guy like Dustin.
Were they dreaming?
Was he the cowardly and useless guy they were making fun of before?
