Fear and death: at that moment, countless negative emotions enveloped Wells and his men.

They had never imagined that they would be driven into a desperate situation by a single person.

"Don't kill me! Don't kill me! I'm just helping them drive. I've never hurt anyone..." At this moment, a younger bandit finally couldn't bear the fear any longer and knelt down with a thud, raising the shotgun in his hands above his head, weeping bitterly, "I confess! Let the military police arrest me!"

The collapse of a psychological defense often starts with the collapse of one person, and then triggers the collapse of a group of people.

Although these bandits had been robbing food and hurting people around the town, they were not professional killers. They were just a bunch of inhuman bastards, far less ruthless and resolute than the big bandits in TV dramas.

They were fine bullying ordinary people who had no ability to resist, but once they faced a strongman who could crush them, their humbleness and fear were completely exposed.

They couldn't even be considered qualified desperados.

Just a bunch of bullies who feared the strong and preyed on the weak...scoundrels!

"Please, don't kill us! We surrender..."

"We won't dare to do it again..."

"Spare our lives!"

Seeing this, the few remaining bandits, except for Wells, lost the courage to confront Li Tianran, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing.

If the opponent was only Li Tianran, then they might still have the idea of resisting, but at this time, there was also a sniper hidden in the dark that they couldn't see!

"You bunch of trash! Get up!" Wells was furious, kicking and punching the bandits. "Even if he adds that sniper, there are only two of them, two guns. There are eight of us. Can they kill us all in an instant?"

Li Tianran laughed.

Just like Wells said, if these people wanted to resist, he really couldn't kill them all in an instant.

He would only have to pay the price of two lives, and the other party could launch a counterattack.

But the question was... who would be willing to give up their own life in exchange for their companions' chance to counterattack?

Soldiers with faith in their hearts would.

Warriors with a homeland in their hearts would.

But these bandits, who gathered together only for profit, would not!

Their thoughts were very simple.

That blonde pig Wells made it sound easy, but what if one of the two people killed in the counterattack was me?

If I die, I'll have nothing left. Why should I use my life to let you escape safely?

If we're going to be caught, we'll be caught together. If we're going to die, we'll die together!

This was the most realistic portrayal of the bandits' psychology.

"Put down your guns." Li Tianran looked at Wells expressionlessly. "Kneel on the ground, answer my questions, and I'll give you a complete corpse!"

Li Tianran didn't hide his intention to kill Wells. Wells was the leader of these bandits and had to die!

He wasn't afraid that Wells would hear this and launch a frantic counterattack.

That adult-level combat warrior had already aimed the gun at Wells' head. As long as Wells showed a hint of wanting to resist, 0.5 seconds later, his head would explode like a firework, evenly distributed on the ground within a five-meter radius.

"Yellow-skinned pig, I will never surrender to scum like you..." Wells' eyes were bloodshot, and he raised the shotgun in his hand, ready to fire.

He knew very well that once he surrendered, others might have a chance to survive, but he would definitely die.

Surrendering meant death, and resisting meant death, so he wanted to fight for a chance of survival!

But he was thinking too much.

Before his finger even touched the trigger of the shotgun, Li Tianran had already raised his hand, and a 0.45 caliber bullet from the M1911 directly hit his gun-wielding arm!

Bang!

Wells let out a shrill scream, his right arm drooping weakly, blood gushing from his elbow.

His right arm was crippled.

Bang, bang, bang!

Li Tianran reloaded and fired three more shots, hitting Wells' knees and the other arm with extreme precision.

Wells fell backward, crashing heavily to the ground, his limbs broken. He twisted like a worm, screaming miserably.

The sound was so terrible that it made people shudder with fear!

The other bandits almost collapsed to the ground in fright, trembling violently, burying their heads in their crotches like quails, shivering.

"Now, are you willing to cooperate with me and answer my questions?" Li Tianran walked in front of Wells, looking down at Wells' face, which was contorted with pain: "If you don't want to, that's fine. I haven't had enough fun yet..."

Li Tianran's delicate face combined with his murderous words caused a great shock in Wells' heart. At this moment, he finally began to fear, and his psychological defenses were no longer firm: "I'll cooperate... I'll cooperate!"

"Wouldn't it have been over sooner if you'd done this earlier? You had to suffer. You're so cheap." Li Tianran cursed sarcastically, then squatted down and asked in a deep voice, "Is there anyone else behind your gang?"

Li Tianran wasn't afraid of a small-scale grain-robbing gang, but he was afraid that they belonged to a larger organization.

"I only contact my direct superior... I don't know who the real boss is!" Wells gritted his teeth, his face pale, and said, "He distributes weapons and assigns tasks to us! There are at least dozens of gangs like us in Handong Province!"

Li Tianran's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.

The worst-case scenario had still occurred.

This was a large-scale, organized criminal group with a strict hierarchy. Low-level lackeys like Wells didn't even know the real identity of their boss, only who their direct superior was.

This level of confidentiality was definitely not something ordinary criminal groups could achieve!

"After you rob the grain, where do you plan to transport it to?" Li Tianran asked again, narrowing his eyes.

"H City!" Wells gritted his teeth and said, "After we complete the task, we will send the grain to H City, where a cargo ship will meet us at the dock."

H City was the coastal city on the edge of Handong Province, where Nan City was located, and across that sea, the corresponding location was F State on the edge of the European Union!

Li Tianran suddenly seemed to understand something.

This grain might be transported abroad!

"Did your superior ever tell you the use of this grain?" Li Tianran asked in a deep voice.

Wells hesitated for a moment, seemingly considering the importance of the matter.

Li Tianran frowned and pressed the muzzle of his gun hard on the wound on Wells' right arm.

Instantly, Wells screamed like a pig being slaughtered. Da Feng Novel Network

"It's... Eden!" Wells' forehead was covered in cold sweat, and he shouted, "He once said that word unintentionally, but I really don't know the specific use!"
