章 300: Confusion
When Rick heard these words, he instantly grabbed his Colt from his waist, but soon the sound of loaded pistols was heard in his ears, followed by Gareth's leisurely voice.
"Haha, you're someone really very cautious. There are only three people on your side and the others are hiding in the woods, do you think we're stupid?"
Seeing that he was surrounded, Rick calmed down, looked at the situation around him and found a group of people slowly coming out of the forest, led by the rest of his companions.
Eugene walked to the end of the line, his facial features were almost scrunched up, when had he ever been targeted by so many guns while being protected the whole time? His eyes flickered, and he finally noticed the strong red-haired man in front of him standing to one side of the door.
Abraham was surrounded by more than a dozen people who appeared around him at this point, and he reluctantly put the gun down in his hand. He also looked around, but saw Eugene behind him with a cowed expression. In the past, this caused an impulse to rise up from deep inside his body, but Rosita quickly gave him a wink to signal him not to do anything impulsive.
"Hey, this gentleman is a bit more aggressive...":
With an expression on his face that he was sure to win, Gareth walked not too far away from Abraham, but still kept a distance of two meters, looked at Rick and his group with a smile, and said in a strange tone.
"Everyone, you have to learn to respect the winner, you understand, especially you big men!"
After speaking, he winked at the few people behind him and they stepped forward to collect the weapons from Rick's group.
But at the same time the deep voice of Rick, who was trying to change the current situation, rang out.
"You are making a big mistake. We belong to a big organization, if we don't get back in time they will look for us and if they find out soon they will discover you."
"Hehe, do you think I care?"
"We can talk."
"I don't think so."
Rick didn't know why this guy was so confident. He lowered his head slightly, but his eyes were watching Gareth's position. The other side wouldn't agree to negotiation, so there seemed to be only one way out of the predicament.
Gareth turned his eyes to the other side. He realized that this was an opportunity. At this moment, Gareth was only two meters away from him. As long as the opponent was not careful, he could run to the enemy's side in less than a second.
At this moment, the person who picked up the weapons on the other side had already looked at him, and the opportunity was fleeting.
Whoosh!
Rick's body became a blurry shadow, and he threw himself at Gareth. The distance of more than two meters was reduced in an instant. With a hook to the neck towards the enemy, his muscle strength immediately exploded, and with his right hand also pressed against Gareth at the same time.
"Do not move!"
Rick's shout attracted the attention of everyone around him. The members of the group who were a bit frustrated were surprised by Rick's sudden success, but Morgan and Abraham reacted quickly and quickly stepped forward. They pointed behind Rick with guns in their hands.
About a dozen guns were pointed at them at this point, but the three had already gathered. Rick's front was blocked by Gareth, and his back was protected by Morgan.
Rick hid his body behind Gareth as much as possible, and the people around him couldn't find the opportunity to shoot.
"Get your men to put their guns down!"
"Rick, Rick, Rick, you know what, this is a bad move!"
Seeing Gareth's relaxed expression, thinking he didn't dare shoot, Rick's tone became more stern.
"You think I'm kidding?"
"Listen to me...!"
A burst of laughter interrupted what he was about to say. Not only Gareth, but also the people holding weapons around him couldn't help but smile. Gradually, his laughter grew louder and louder, and the walkers walking not far away were attracted.
"You really don't know the current situation. If I were you, I would obediently put down your guns."
"Rick, something's not right."
Morgan's two also realized something was wrong, and when they were getting more and more nervous, Gareth finally couldn't help but speak up.
"It's okay, I don't want you to get upset, we already knew you were coming, do you understand Rick?"
After waiting a few breaths, seeing that the force on his neck hadn't diminished in the slightest, he rolled his eyes involuntarily.
"Your wife is in our hands! Was her name Lori?"
"What!"
Not only Rick, but even Guillermo, not far away, looked to this side with an expression of disbelief.
Both sides saw a trace of surprise in each other's eyes, how did these guys know Lori?
This sentence was like a bombshell to Rick, when he heard his wife's name, his mind buzzed and the strength in his arm relaxed involuntarily.
Feeling the strength in his neck had lessened, Gareth didn't take the opportunity to fight back, but continued to speak.
"Do you want to see her? I can take you there, but you have to let me go.".
"No, you have to let them go!"
As he spoke, Rick tightened his arms again and pressed the gun in his hand against Gareth's head. He understood that this person was his hope, and if they let him go, his last bargaining chip would be lost.
Feeling the strength in his neck return, Gareth's expression finally became a little impatient, and he signaled to the people at the door.
The other party seemed to understand something, and two people turned and ran into the courtyard.
Not long after, some people came out of the corner of the courtyard. Rick looked and saw the person in front of him at a glance. It was his wife Lori.
"Rick!"
"Lori!"
Prompted by his wife's appearance, with increased strength in his hands Rick whispered to Gareth.
"Let them go, or I'll kill you right now!"
"Shut up! You don't have bargaining chips now, understand?"
Waving again, Lori was kicked to the ground, and then the man put his foot on her and held a gun to her head.
On the other side, at some point, someone snatched Katie, who was buried there, from Elen's arms, and then pointed the gun at the girl's forehead.
"See, you want these people to die! If you don't let me go, they'll all die because of you!"
Hearing his wife's screams, and the exclamations of Elen and Noa, the voices around him seemed to disappear in an instant, he looked around and could only see his companions opening their mouths and shouting something.
The pained expression of his wife, the terrified eyes of his companions and the proud expression of the other party flashed before his eyes like scenes in slow motion.
All he could hear was the sound of heavy breathing and the sound of his heart beating. As Rick thought carefully, is this all up to me?
Gareth's screams sounded faintly in his ears, and then his five senses returned again, and the surrounding voices gradually grew louder.
"Do you want to see your wife beaten to death? Do you have the heart to see this child die because of you?"
"Please don't hurt her, Katie!"
"Get off me! Get off me!"
"You won't end well!"
...
Rick lowered his colt, and Rick's dull eyes finally settled on his wife not far away.
A smirk appeared on Gareth's face, even though this guy was tricky, he finally got it done.
After stretching his neck and rubbing the spot where he was strangled, he looked at the people behind him.
"Everyone, welcome to the Terminus and sorry for hurting you!"
