Boom!
Shaun's words struck Wesley like lightning as he and Tobias turned pale in shock.
As Wesley turned to look at Nathan, an overwhelming sense of fear began to creep through him.
Terrified, he dropped to his knees in front of Nathan and apologized in a trembling voice, "General, I really didn't know it was you. I was being blind to the truth, please punish me..."
Meanwhile, Tobias could feel his blood pressure rising as a gush of blood flooded his head. He was so stressed that he could have a heart attack anytime.
Everyone else at Fort Green trembled as their faces were filled with terror.
As for the mastermind, Dominic, he collapsed onto the floor as his legs turned into jelly.
Meanwhile, his face turned ashen gray while his lips became pale. With his eyes filled with despair, he mumbled to himself, "It's all over.”
Meanwhile, Nathan pulled Wesley up and lectured coldly, "A man's pride is a precious commodity. You have to remember that the warriors of our nation are made of steel and you should not kneel easily to others next time."
Staring blankly at Nathan, Wesley was overwhelmed by emotion. He couldn't help but stand at attention and salute. With a reinvigorated voice, he replied, "Yes, Sir!”
Next, Nathan turned towards Tobias while pointing at Dominic, "Now, I'm going to deal with him. Do you have any problems with that?"
With a trembling voice, Tobias answered, "No, none at all. We will leave him to your discretion."
Nodding, Nathan ordered in an impassioned tone, "Men, execute this a ****** i"
Upon hearing Nathan's instruction, Colin whipped out his pistol and shot Dominic at point-blank range.
By executing Dominic in front of them, Nathan struck fear into Tobias and his men. Other than punishing Tobias for his crimes, it was obvious that Nathan was showing them who was boss.
Indeed, after killing Dominic, Nathan said to Tobias coldly, "I know that Fort Green has a long history, but the underworld has its own rules. As the saying goes, only the righteous can serve the people."
"Only the righteous can serve the people!"
"Whoever commits evil will be removed!"
"All of you better watch yourselves going forward!"
