Back to Back!

Just as Victor scratched his abdomen, one of the robbers struck him with the butt of his rifle, causing him to stagger backward. However, Victor did not fall to the ground. Instead, he quickly regained his balance and waved his hands wildly around, preventing the three robbers from getting too close and chasing after him to attack.

However, there was one exception!

The burly man who was first attacked by him had a sudden flash of inspiration the moment Victor was hit by the butt of the gun. He stepped forward, gripped the axe handle tightly with both hands, and swung it down hard towards Victor's head.

Although Victor was wildly swinging his claws around his body, the strong man was tall and had long arms, and with the length of the axe handle, he wasn't worried about being attacked.

Just as the Speed descending axe was about to strike Victor, with its powerful momentum, once it hit, Victor's head would surely be smashed to pieces.

Victor, with his back to the burly man, was unaware of the danger emanating from behind and above him.

The heavy axe, carrying a strong wind, swung down Speed, getting closer and closer to Victor's head. Seeing that he was about to have his skull split open by the axe, a sinister smile appeared on the burly man's ferocious face.

However, just as that smile appeared, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his back, as if he had been stabbed by several sharp blades at the same time, and his heart and lungs also felt a tearing pain.

The burly man looked down and saw six sharp, white bone spurs emerging from around his chest, as if several bone spurs had suddenly grown from his own chest. However, the waves of pain in his body told him that these six bone spurs had been pierced through his body from behind and emerged from his chest.

With his heart and lungs pierced, the burly man's eyes quickly lost their sparkle, and the arm that was wielding the axe instantly lost its strength.

Although the burly man was killed by James's bone spikes, the axe continued to swing toward Victor's head due to inertia.

James, standing behind the burly man, watched helplessly as the axe continued to fall. His eyes widened in frustration, and he shouted anxiously.

"Victor, get out of the way!"

Victor, who was waving his claws to stop the three robbers, heard James's voice suddenly behind him and turned around to look.

As soon as he turned around, he saw a heavy and sharp woodcutter's axe coming down on his head!

Victor's eyes widened in horror. Living at the foot of the Rocky Mountains in a region where logging was the main industry, Victor knew all too well the power of this kind of axe.

A strong lumberjack can swing his axe and cut a six- or seven-centimeter-deep gash in a hard tree trunk with one blow. If someone is hit by this axe, their head will definitely explode like a coconut that has been chopped open!

Even the fierce and arrogant Victor couldn't help but reveal a hint of fear and despair in his eyes.

Just as the sharp blade of the axe was less than twenty centimeters from the top of Victor's head, a crisp gunshot rang out again.

"When!"

A loud metallic clang rang out above Victor's head, making his eardrums ache. The axe that was originally falling on his head was deflected by the impact and crashed to the ground at an angle, creating a rather shallow crater.

Because his view was blocked by the burly man in front of him, James only saw the axe continuing to fall and did not see the final result. He thought that Victor had been hit by the axe, and his eyes turned red. He suddenly pulled the bone spikes from the burly man's body and let the lifeless body fall straight to the ground. He looked anxiously ahead.

With the strong man's body no longer blocking his way, James finally saw Victor on the other side. However, Victor was not hit by the axe as James had expected. Instead, he was standing there An Ran. The axe that had been swung at him was now lying on the ground to the side, without a trace of blood on it.

Recalling the familiar, crisp gunshot that had just rang out, James couldn't help but make a guess.

Victor naturally heard the gunshot and knew that someone had fired a shot that deflected the axe aimed at him. The only person present who would shoot to help them was Chen Mo. Moreover, when the two first met Chen Mo, the incredible speed he displayed when he jumped off the carriage proved that he possessed strength far beyond that of ordinary people, so it was not surprising that he had such accurate marksmanship.

However, the two men had no time to think about these things. The other three robbers also noticed that their burly accomplice had been killed from behind by a child who looked to be about ten years old.

"That kid killed Tom!"

"Kill him!"

The remaining three robbers were enraged and immediately charged at the two men while cursing.

Seeing this, Victor and James also quickly waved their claws and rushed towards the three. James had been somewhat fearful before, had become accustomed to the fighting state after killing two people. At this moment, even though he was facing three fierce adults, he did not back down. He raised his arms and stretched out his bone claws forward, pouncing on the nearest robber who was holding a shotgun.

However, he was able to kill two people in a row earlier by taking them by surprise. This time, the other party was prepared, and James himself had no fighting experience. When he roared and rushed in front of the robber, he was knocked to the ground by the butt of the robber's gun.

Looking at James lying on the ground, the robber's eyes flashed with intense killing intent. It was this kid who had just ambushed and killed Tom from behind!

With himself lying on the ground, he didn't need to worry about accidentally injuring his companion, so the robber immediately raised his gun with a fierce expression and aimed it at James was lying on the ground.

Victor was shocked to see this and immediately tried to rush forward to push away the gun barrel, but he neglected his defense and was kicked to the ground by one of the robbers next to him. He didn't have time to stop him. Victor lay on the ground, ignoring the pain, and looked up at James not far away and shouted.

"Jimmy!"

Just as the robber was about to pull the trigger, the crisp gunshot rang out again.

"Bang!"

Just like the first robber, the one was shot in the back of the hand, screamed, dropped the shotgun, and clutched his hand in pain.

Victor and James were taken aback at first, but then quickly reacted, scrambling to their feet and rushing to each other.

"Back to back!"

Victor yelled at James.

Although they had never rehearsed before, James quickly understood what was going on. The two rushed together and then turned around and stood back to back, baring their claws and looking fiercely at the enemies around them.
