Of the Updike stories I have ever read, perhaps the most impressive one is Wolves, Maces, And Blood. The story is too good, leaving me with many doubts. Currently, the manga has been translated to Chapter 61 General Wolf was angry. Bleeding. Let's read the author's Wolves, Maces, And Blood Updike story right here.
The security guard swallowed hard and went pale. He recoiled, looked at Sean in horror, and waved his hand, “What do you want?”
“Don’t come over…”
His voice was shaking!
He worked in a bank and oversaw security. Although he was a little bullying and domineering, he never used a knife.
This was the first time he had ever met someone like Sean who took a knife when there was disagreements!
“Aren’t you trying to hit me?”
“Come on!”
Sean kept walking, his voice like thunder, his strength like alarm.
In the blink of an eye, he cornered the security guard.
There was no going back!
“Don’t you want me to get down on my knees and call you Grandpa?”
“Come on!”
Sean looked at the security guard like a hungry Wolf with indescribable ferocity and violence. One close look at him made the security guard feel like he was falling into an ice cave.
His soul trembled!
Could you understand the feeling of despair?
It was as if the eyes of death from hell were fixed upon him, and he was enveloped by an immensity of darkness and fear, his scalp bursting and his guts breaking!
That was the look in Sean’s eyes!
General Wolf of the North’s eyes!
Five years of bloody expeditions, five years in the field, Sean killed a lot of enemies. He had been tempered by fire and blood, and overcome by life and death!
As the saying went, “the achievement of a general cost many lives!”
The man who climbed out of the dead, the hero who stepped on the mountain of dead blood. He looked good on the surface, but when General Wolf got angry, he killed like a demon from hell.
Under Sean’s pressure, the security guard held on for about ten seconds, then, his trembling legs bent uncontrollably and he knelt in front of Sean.
“Sorry, I…I just…”
His tongue seemed to be tied up and he could not speak clearly, “I was wrong. I know I’m wrong! I was just talking nonsense. You... You’re a hero!”
“Please spare me and let me go!”
The scene made everyone’s eyes flutter and their hearts chill.
He got down on his knees?
Sean’s back was to them, and they could only see Sean’s burly back, but they could not see his demonic eyes. But from Sean’s roar just now, they still felt a huge psychological pressure.
Sean was howling like a Wolf!
“Mr. Young, is it…”
Mr. France and the female clerk looked at each other and saw the boundless fear on each other’s faces. After all, those two security guards did what they told them to do to Marcia.
What if Sean gave them a hard time later?
Luke Young, of all people, stood there and didn’t move.
They had no idea what he was thinking.
Mr. France could not help but pat Luke Young on the shoulder and whispered with a black face, “Mr. Young, this guy is so violent, he probably has a criminal record, and you can’t stand by while you’re here.”
“Mr. France, are you telling me how to do things?”
Luke Young turned his head and glared at Mr. France.
Luke Young, who had been watching but not intervening, had his pupils shriveled suddenly and was startled by Sean’s crazy behavior. He gave orders to the two policemen, who were on standby.
“Yes, sir!”
Without hesitation, the two cops kicked off and rushed at Sean for the first time.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
There was not a single person in Hilshire, let alone the two of them, who could match Sean’s speed.
Bam!
At the next moment, Sean stabbed the fruit knife in the right palm of the security guard in the eyes of the shocked people. The tip of the knife cut through the flesh of his hand, cut through the bone, straight through the palm. The residual force was still there, and it pierced into the back wall.
Like a thick and long steel nail, it nailed the guard’s right hand to the wall!
As the security guard screamed, blood rained down on the face of another security guard lying on the ground. The security guard was so scared that his scalp was numb. So, he tilted his head sideways and closed his eyes...
He pretended that he had fainted.
However, despite his excellent acting, he could not hide his fear. Although he was perfectly still, pretending to be dead, one of the taps below failed at the crucial moment.
His pants were wet all over the place!
Marcia froze there, solid as a rock, her heart dying. She felt dizzy and her brain buzzing at the bloody scene before her.
She had never dreamed that it would come to this!
She didn’t expect that Sean would do anything to protect her!
Stabbing someone in front of a cop was against the law. Sean just got out of jail yesterday morning. He was not going to be thrown in jail again, was he?
Marcia regretted it very much!
The two policemen stopped and looked back at Luke Young, waiting for his next instructions…
