Meanwhile, seeing that his henchmanâs head flies so easily, Rahul Soniwal becomes shocked. He couldnât believe what happened just now.
Seeing this he realized that he had overthought everything. His homemade makeshift gun, his trump card, had no chance against the person in front of him.
However, as the boss of the Shelter, he did not show fear.
He merely spoke slowly, "May I ask who are you? When did my Savage Wolf Shelter ever antagonize you to the point where you need to deal with us like this?"
After a brief thought, Rahul Soniwal still decided to probe first. Lest the other party just killed him without a word.
In the current situation, he might not necessarily lose to him. After all, his Shelter had dozens of people, and a human-wave tactic would be enough to take them all down.
The prerequisite was that he couldnât die first, otherwise everything would be over.
Vikram then signalled him to come inside, Rahul Soniwal agreed and with his six higher-ranking personnel entered inside.
Looking at Vikram, they all adopted a stance as if facing a formidable enemy.
It must be said, the Savage Wolf Shelter was truly wealthy in terms of supplies.
It was visible that every member held alloy standardized weapons.
It seemed that during the last relic incident, although the Savage Wolf Shelter arrived late, they still gained quite a few benefits.
However, Vikram maintained an optimistic attitude about this.
"Arenât the things in your Savage Wolf Shelter my things?" he thought to himself.
Regarding Rahul Soniwalâs question, he answered with a smile, "Did you forget who I am? I just came here to witness the famous Savage Wolf Shelter."
"You all were claiming that, you guys are bigg Boss, and shit like that, and warning me. And even after I arrived here, the people in your Shelter were so hot-headed, all wanting to chop us to death? But killing them was even easier than the Crimson Creature."
Vikram answered Rahul Soniwal, by mocking him, then spread his hands, as if to say it was all their fault for seeking death, and it had nothing to do with him.
"Stop spouting nonsense! How do we know who you are, and if you hadnât trespassed into our Shelter, how could our people have attacked first?" One hot-tempered Survivor angrily retorted to Vikramâs answer.
"Yeah, so what? Havenât you guys done this kind of thing before? Donât tell me youâre still trying to reason with me about this?" Picking his earwax, Vikram rolled his eyes at the man.
Hearing this, the anger in the eyes of the person who spoke earlier intensified, and he was about to say something more, but Rahul Soniwal stopped him.
"Alright, shut up." He turned his back and glared at him with his eyes, while also very subtly winking at him.
After receiving the feedback, Rahul Soniwal turned around to face Vikram and the two others, and said, "Gentleman, I donât know who you are, but I donât think you came here to cause trouble. How about you become our guest, and we can have a good talk?"
Even when Vikram didnât tell them his identity, while saying they have grudges, Rahul Soniwal could only go along with it till his other members didnât arrive, and then everything would turn around.
He had just given one of the higher-ups a look, signaling him to call back the fools who had run away.
His side wouldnât be so passive; if they wanted to shoot, theyâd have to consider whether they could handle the influx of members.
"Youâre waiting for those idiots downstairs to rush back, arenât you?" A sudden question, accompanied by a light chuckle, came from Vikramâs mouth.
Through his monitoring device, he can easily find the scattered Savage Wolf Shelter members suddenly starting heading back. He didnât even need to think to know what had happened. Although they also feared him, humans were weird beings.
Sometimes, for little benefit, they didnât even care about their deaths.
Vikram decided to directly expose Rahul Soniwalâs charade, who was still feigning composure.
When the truth was discovered, his first reaction was surprise. Vikram could clearly see Rahul Soniwalâs expression change.
The muscles on his face, which had just relaxed, tensed up again.
Immediately after, came a shout, "Attack!!"
Knowing he couldnât keep up the act, he decided to fight to the death rather than sit by and wait for it. It was better than doing nothing.
Perhaps his few people could even stall until the fools downstairs came back to help.
The six people heard the command and knew it was unlikely they could run now. Without hesitation, they swarmed Vikram at Vikram.
Rahul Soniwal himself, however, kept retreating, lingering far behind, seemingly with another trick up his sleeve.
"Haha," Vikram chuckled, while sitting in his place, he didnât care about this weakling.
And before the six people reached near him, suddenly six vines appeared and caught all of them.
And before they understood what happened, the vines pierced their bodies, and when it vanished, now the six people had turned into corpses.
And it was not a normal death, holes appeared in many places of their bodies.
"What the fuckkkkkkkkkk?" Rahul shouted in shock and fear, looking at the gruesome death of his people.
He felt too much fear looking at Vikram, who was still sitting on the chair, and didnât care about anything.
Even the odd-looking weapon, the crudely made gun, which appeared in his hand, fell on the ground because of seeing that fear.
And then, the Phantom Druid appearance became clear, looking at his face, Rahul Soniwal canât believe how a cute looking child can have terrifying powers.
But just as he despaired, the commotion downstairs gave him a glimmer of hope to survive.
"Boss, weâre here! Where are the villains? Watch me help you take them down!"
A group of people rushed up from the first floor, swarming in.
The leading member hadnât even clearly seen the scene on the second floor when his words came out prematurely.
But when he saw the scenario of inside all other high members gruesome bodies. A fear started awakening between them.
And he slowly began to retreat, blocking the path of other members who were a step behind him.
"What are you doing? Why are you walking back? Havenât we arrived?"
"Uh... I suddenly remembered something urgent. I... Iâll be leaving first." With that, he turned to run back without looking.
But before they left a few vines appeared there, which blocked their way.
"Anyone who dares to leave today, Iâll be the first to blow their brains out."
"And those few downstairs who havenât come up yet, donât think about trying to take advantage of the chaos. Stay put."
As soon as these words were uttered, the entire room fell silent, not because they were willing to listen to Vikram, but because no one wanted to die.
Looking at these minions, Vikram nodded with satisfaction, then looked at the person who was sitting on the opposite side of him.
He stood up from his chair, and started arriving near them.
"Tsk tsk tsk, Rahul Soniwal, it looks like youâre screwed this time~"
"Youâve taken in so many members in your Shelter, but they donât seem very useful, do they?"
Hearing this, he only gave a dejected look and sighed softly.
"Alas~"
The Savage Wolf Shelter he had founded was originally just a small-time operation, built by deceiving other members to join and acquiring supplies.
As for the loyalty of his members, he thought it wouldnât be a big problem as long as he had strength.
Now it seemed, he had truly raised a bunch of good-for-nothing slobs who could only do manual labor.
As soon as he asked them to fight for their lives, they ran faster than anyone else.
Knowing that he had no escape today, Rahul Soniwal looked up at Vikram, "Who exactly are you? Let me die understanding."
"Me? You want to know?" He chuckled, then reached to remove the black cloth covering his head.
"Who am I? Iâm your damn father, Vikram," He said looking at him, and kicked him in his chest.
"Aaaaahhhh," Rahul shouted, as he flew from the chair and collided on a wall before falling back on the ground.
He felt his chestâs many bones had broken, he even tried to stand up, eventually, he lost the strength to even stand, collapsing weakly to the ground.
He canât believe that his one kick was so powerful.
"Haha," He laughed looking at Vikram coming towards him, "I canât believe, just one mistake of my life will end my rule and life."
"At least you understand, now go and repent in hell," Vikram reached out and caught his neck, before strangling it.
His bicep muscles bulged slightly, and a crisp sound echoed in the somewhat quiet space.
Rahul Soniwalâs wicked life came to an end.
Afterward, he didnât forget the few people on the ground who hadnât died yet. Vikram also swiftly and cleanly dealt with them.
The other survivors looking at the scene also started fearing him. Few even pissed in their pants.
"Big brother, can we leave now?"
"Yeah, big brother, you killed our boss, so donât kill us too."
As soon as these words were spoken, a dozen or so people behind him began to plead.
Vikram looked at them, and asked, "Are you really members of the Savage Wolf Shelter?"
"Yes, big brother, we are."
"But why did I hear that you were all a bunch of big villains? Have you reformed now and become so honest?"
"Youâve misunderstood us. Joining the Savage Wolf Shelter was purely a choice we had to make because we couldnât stay in our own Shelter."
"Those heinous acts, we only carried them out under orders. Itâs not what we wanted to do ourselves."
Although Vikram has thought that he will need to kill many people, but looking at the group, who were pleading to him, he isnât able to do it.
Although he was not such a kind saint, still, he was not a cruel guy.
"Wait here," He said, and went back towards the Warehouse room, where he had still tied the Shalini.
According to the information Abhishek provided, Shaliniâs status in the Savage Wolf Shelter was not low, she was even Rahul Soniwalâs step-sister.
So she must know some of the truth, who of them are good, and who are still bad guys.
Shalini had already secretly witnessed everything that had happened outside.
As Vikram slowly walked towards her, the only expression she showed was fear.
A hand quickly reached out to her. Just as she thought her life was over, she realized he had only removed the cloth from her mouth.
"You heard what was said outside just now. Tell me, were they lying?"
