Under The Veil of Night-Chapter 654 Start of the Battle 2

Outside the gate, the soldiers and police officers were waiting. They had called Ferdinand to get out, but so far, there was no response from people in Lima School.

"Sir, there's no one answering."

"I know," the leader replied.

"Sir, there are a group of people coming here. They seem to be gangster," one of the soldiers reported.

The leader frowned. He knew that Kevin had called the reinforcement from the street, but he didn't know the exact amount of people they called. He glanced sideways. "How many people?"

"There seem to be hundreds or thousands," the soldier answered.

Hearing the answer, the leader nodded his head. He tried not to think too much about the power behind Kevin Kalin as he focused his attention back to the barrier before him. Frown appeared on his forehead when he saw a man walking leisurely to them.

"Freeze!"

"Don't move from your place!"

The man, Jeff, stopped. He looked at the soldiers and smirked. "Aren't you the one who wants us to come out?"

"Place your hand above and get out slowly."

"Fine," Jeff leisurely put his hand up as he walked closer to the gate. He eyed the barrier before him. Cain had warned him before that there might be some resistances, but it wouldn't hinder his movement to get out completely.

The leader has a dark face when he saw Jeff walked out nonchalantly. In his eyes, there must be something wrong for this man to not have any fear. The moment Jeff walked out of the barrier, he shouted.

"Capture him!"

"Oh? You're really violent," Jeff smirked. "Heed my voice or you'll face the consequences, follow my instruction and start fighting with those around you. This is your master giving the order."

The soldiers were stumped when they heard Jeff talked strangely. Has this man gone crazy?

Before they could finish their thoughts, they realized to their horror that they were not aiming for Jeff. Each of them were pointing their gun or other weapon to their comrade.

"Wait! What are you doing?"

"Don't!"

"No! The enemy is over there!"

As the fight started, Jeff just stood there leisurely. He merely uttered a few rubbish remarks here and there, which was the same as giving orders for the people around him.

"Continue to fight, this is only the beginning," Jeff smirked.

The leader tried to break through to reach Jeff, but his subordinates blocked the way. As they were being controlled by Jeff, their action became the opposite of what they wanted to.

"Captain, help us!"

"I'm trying!" the leader himself could feel that his head was hurting so much. It might not be apparent, but he knew that he was being swayed. Right now, he completely realized that his decision to wait on Jeff got out of the barrier was for naught.

He gritted his teeth in anger. Seeing his subordinates killed by their comrades made his blood boil.

"JEFF! You!" he bellowed angrily.

Jeff just laughed. "Don't be too early to call my name. I'm not going anywhere…"

BANG!

Before he could finish his words, a bullet passed the chaotic soldiers, reaching towards his shoulder. If he didn't move in time just now, it would have hit his heart and killed him without mercy.

"Who?" Jeff's eyes narrowed. He saw a car coming with a man leaning on the window, ready to shoot him again.

His brows furrowed and his feet kicked on the ground hastily.

BANG!

The bullet grazed on his hand as he went back inside the barrier. He felt the barrier blocking him for a second, which nearly scared him out of his wits. Thankfully, Cain acted in time and allowed him to get inside.

"Che, I miss," Neo complained. His hand was still holding the long gun on his hand. He wanted to shoot Jeff again, but the man had moved back to behind the barrier.

"You're really useless," commented Dean.

"Do you want to pick a fight?" Neo's face darkened. Trying to shoot the man by passing the hundreds of people blocking his way was already hard enough. He managed to lock into the heart, but Jeff sensed him at the last moment. His attempt became a failure as he only managed to wound the man a bit.

"It's already good enough," Kevin said solemnly. His eyes watched the barrier in front of them. "We'll have to pass the barrier."

"Boss, do you want to wait for the men you call to arrive or not?" Mike asked. The army from Black Street wouldn't arrive soon enough, so they might need to wait for some time.

"No need."

As the car stopped, the five of them alighted from the car. They saw the relieved faces of the soldiers, who seemed glad that they had arrived in time. Without the voice of Jeff controlling them, they were free to do as they wished.

"Many thanks, Clan Head Kevin," the leader bowed down.

Kevin nodded his head. "The others will arrive in a few more minutes. We'll get inside first."

The leader's face changed into surprise. He knew that the reinforcements from Black Street would arrive soon, but he didn't expect Kevin to volunteer for getting inside the school first.

"But the barrier…"

"Uncle."

"With pleasure," Patrick grinned and stepped forward. His spear has been polished repeatedly yesterday, ready for him to use as he wished. Seeing Jeff glared at him, he merely smirked.

"You won't be able to get pass the barrier!" Jeff snorted.

"Oh? We shall see."

Behind Jeff, a large and bulky man appeared. The soldiers immediately recognized that person as Ayres. The fact that he had lost one of his arm confirmed their suspicion.

"When did Ayres lose his arm?" Mike turned his head to Neo.

Neo laughed. "Kanae cut it off when she and Boss went to Ainge Hidden Clan. It seems, they don't have any medicine to grow a limb."

"If they have one, I believe they're going to be extremely famous by now."

"At least, this is beneficial to us," Neo took out a large bag and put it on his back. The weight made it hard for him to move, but he would not fight a close distance fight too. "You're the one who will make the way and I'll follow behind you."

"Got it."

As they spoke, Patrick readied himself and thrust his spear forward. It reached the barrier, who tried to block it, violently. The shock caused ripples to appear in the surface of the barrier, making it visible in violet light for a few seconds.

Seeing that his first attempt ended in failure, Patrick snorted. He pushed back his spear and tried a few more times. The barrier shook continuously until it broke down completely.

"Now, that's what I say successful," Patrick nodded his head in satisfaction. "Let's go."

"My lead," Kevin said coldly. His eyes glinted with ruthlessness as he stepped forward into the school.
