Chapter 278
Kingsley wordlessly glanced at him with a cold look before he and Lancer went to the bed of the truck.
Tyler was a dead man to him. There was no need for him to waste his energy talking to someone like that.
Creak! Bam!
After Felix instructed two tough men to open the rear door, he began to walk them through the explosives available. "There are five boxes of primary explosives and 10 boxes of high explosives. The primary explosive is highly susceptible to initiation, which is why the generated detonation wave can set off the high explosives. The high explosives have an even higher detonation velocity and stronger destruction power. Of course, you are welcome to go in and take a closer look." Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
"There's no need for that." Lancer shook his head as he turned to Kingsley and informed respectfully, "From my experience, the scent from the cargo indicates that the primary explosive is fulminated mercury, whereas the high
explosive is TNT."
Felix and Tyler were at a loss of words when they heard that. The jaws of everyone from Tyler and company dropped to the ground as they looked at the monster of a man.
He can tell what kind of explosives by the scent alone?ls he even human?!
"M-Mr. Houston." Felix's voice trembled. "May I be so bold as to ask you what kind of work you do?"
"You will find out in a short while," Lancer replied with a smug smile.
Tyler pursed his lips when he heard that. "You are probably cheating. You are not a goddamn dog, so how is it possible for you to have such a sensitive sense of smell?"
"I will remember that you said that to me." Lancer threw him a glance. "You will regret your words." "F*ck! Are you trying to scare me by threatening me?" Tyler glared angrily at Lancer. "You and Nicholson are birds of a feather! You both just love acting tough, don't you?!"
After complaining about them, he dismissively waved and urged, "Hurry up! You have seen the goods, now pay up! We will hand it over at the same time you pay us!"
Tyler probably would have served them humbly if the buyer was someone else.
Kingsley, however, was someone he looked down upon and detested from the bottom of his heart.
Although he knew that Kingsley could bring him a three-million profit, he still couldn't muster a good attitude.
He even thought that Kingsley was giving him alms!
Lancer proceeded to ignore him as he looked at Kingsley and asked, "Boss, is the order correct?"
Kingsley nodded in reply, which meant that this was the exact kind of explosives used to blow up the Nicholson Family Cemetery!
After getting confirmation from Kingsley, Lancer turned to Felix and declared, "Your goods are of good quality. I will give my men a call and have them deliver the money now." "You will have someone deliver the money over?"
Felix and Tyler's face immediately fell when they heard his words.
In a hushed voice, Felix warningly uttered, "Mr. Houston, you are breaking the rules by having someone send the money mid-transaction."
"Worried I will double-cross you?"
"Worried, my foot!" Tyler chided, "We have more than 30 professional bodyguards here! What are you talking about?! You're surely as broke as ever and not sincere!"
A flash of killing intent glinted in Lancer's eyes then. "Since you are not scared, what is wrong with me asking someone to send the money?"
With that said, he took out a walkie-talkie and barked,
"Everyone! Get fully armed! Surround the perimeter!
After all. Tyler was a firearms reseller. He and his men probably had weapons on them.
That was why Lancer had specially instructed Hades and Lev to make sure the warriors were fully armed when they acted.
However, Tyler was utterly confused when he heard the command.
Get fully armed?Surround the perimeter?lsn't he supposed to get someone to bring the money only?!
"You punk, what are you trying to do?!" Tyler was stunned for two seconds, but he quickly regained his senses, and rather angrily at that. "Are you really trying to swindle us?!"
Felix's face was also twisted when he said to Lancer, "Mr. Houston, black market transactions run by certain rules! Are you not afraid that word would spread and you would enrage the people by doing this?!"
"Not at all," Lancer answered without missing a beat. "Because word won? spread."
"What do you mean by that?!" Tyler gasped.
He took two steps back, and pointed at Kingsley as he scorned, "Kiddo, don't think that you can win against me with two imbeciles!"
After he said that, he commanded the bodyguard behind him, "Hurry! Take out the bad boys and shoot the punks!"
"Yes, Young Master!"
Following that, the bodyguards pulled out handguns from the back of their waistbands and aimed them at Kingsley.
Five seconds had passed by then, but the bodyguards remained in the same position without moving.
"Open fire!" Tyler boomed. "What the f*ck are you idiots posing for?!"
