That evening, Ivy also sought out Micah. During the banquet to reward the Yaren tribe subordinates, Ivy offered Micah a drink. After he drank it, he immediately began coughing up blood.Ivy's face turned pale with shock. "Brother! What's happening to you?"Micah squinted at Ivy, scanning the crowd as he did so. Everyone looked worried, but the poison in this drink had to have come from someone close to him.Grabbing Ivy's wrist, a cold smile crossed Micah's lips. "What do you think?""Brother, I'm innocent! You're my brother. I would never harm you," Ivy said, her face full of innocence.The Pharaoh also stepped forward. "Micah, you can suspect anyone, but Ivy is your sister.""Is she?" Micah took a step towards the Pharaoh, but before he could say more, he collapsed backward. Ivy caught him.Micah tried to push her away, but his eyelids grew too heavy to keep open. Eventually, he lost consciousness.Micah was carried away, and the Pharaoh ended the evening's banquet.Ivy stay
Micah's lips curled into a deep, mocking smile. "Bring them into the trap."Mr. Joker didn't say anything, but he understood Micah's intention perfectly....Nash once again approached the vicinity of the Yaren tribe. He had changed his appearance, using the same old tricks.However, before he could infiltrate the Yaren tribe, a call from a Yaren tribe number came to his phone. Remembering that Nina had used Micah's phone to call him, he quickly answered."Are you looking for Nina?" A woman's voice asked.The fact that someone from the Yaren tribe knew his number so well led Nash to intuitively suspect it was Micah's sister, Ivy.Nash's expression darkened. "What are you two up to?""That's none of your business. If you want to get Nina back, you'll do as I say." Ivy's voice was tinged with satisfaction and calculation.She was confident Nash would agree for Nina's sake.To her surprise, Nash hung up the phone without a word.The only person he had negotiated with was Micah.
Over the past few days, he had endured all the experiments. As a healer and the Pharaoh's most successful test subject, he had developed a resistance to Seth's experiments.Seizing the moment when one of Seth's men approached to give him an injection, Wilfred fought back. He grabbed the syringe and plunged it into the man's neck.Then—Wilfred dragged the man under the table, stripped off his protective suit, and quickly put on a mask. Then, he threw the body into the container, creating the illusion that he was still inside.Wilfred's deepest memories were in the lab, and he knew the place inside out. As he moved cautiously through the lab, he suddenly spotted Nina not far away!Panic surged through him, and he rushed over in a few quick steps. "Ivy," he called.Hearing the familiar voice, Nina looked up sharply. She could not see Wilfred’s face, but she recognized his amber-like eyes.Nina was shocked. "Wilfred, you... you came here?"She hadn't expected Wilfred to be in the
The person blocking their way was none other than Micah, the very man everyone believed was too poisoned to wake up anytime soon.Wilfred instinctively shielded Nina behind him. "I'm taking her out of here."Micah didn't respond immediately. With a gesture, Mr. Joker and others surrounded them.They were taken to another secure location. But just as they arrived, a dire report came in. "Mr. Micah, it's bad! Seth has rebelled!"Micah's lips curled into a cold smile. Seth's rebellion was inevitable, but Wilfred and Nina's escape from the lab had accelerated the process."Whatever happens in the Yaren tribe is none of our concern. You don't want Ivy trapped in this hellhole, do you?" Wilfred gripped Nina's hand tightly, his brows furrowed with worry. His expression was grave, shadowed with a sense of urgency.Micah didn't reply directly. Instead, he instructed Mr. Joker and the others, "Everyone, defend—""Mr. Micah, the tribesmen have been swayed by Seth. We don't have many people
Nina noticed the blood streaming down Micah's face, her eyes widening in shock. She wanted to speak, but it felt like an invisible hand was choking her.Before she could say anything, Micah forcefully pushed her away. "Go find Nash! Don't come back!"Nina stumbled, nearly falling, but a strong hand caught her around the waist. Before she could react, gunshots rang out, deafening her.Wilfred grabbed her and kept moving forward.Micah, meanwhile, was surrounded by Seth's men. Mr. Joker fought with all his might but was forced to stop.Seth, covered in dirt, wore a triumphant smile. His white teeth stood out in stark contrast. He looked smug and confident."Micah, I didn't think you had such a deep mind. I really thought you were poisoned. I underestimated you."He had planned to make his move at the banquet, but Wilfred and Nina's escape attempt had accelerated his plans. Nonetheless, he was impressed by Micah's tactics.Micah sneered.As Seth approached, Micah struck quickly.
Seth initially intended to pull the trigger and end Micah's life, but reconsidered and stopped himself. Squinting, he looked at Micah with a sneer, "I'll make sure you and your father experience the fall from grace to the depths of hell."With a gesture, his men dragged Micah and Mr. Joker away.Seth issued an order, "Wilfred and Nina won't get far. Bring them back to me. I want to them alive or see their bodies if they're dead!""Yes, sir," his men responded in unison.......Taking advantage of the chaos, Nash infiltrated the Yaren tribe. He understood the importance of targeting the leader to disrupt the opposing force effectively.Micah had many people with him, but Nash saw an opportunity with Ivy. He pointed his gun at Ivy's head. "Don't move. Take me to Nina!"Ivy was sitting at her desk, in front of a painting she had completed—a sea of roses. It wasn't very lifelike, but the outlines and colors revealed the artist's state of mind.She had long noticed the footsteps app
Nash didn't even glance at her. "Do I need to spell out your relationship with Seth?"He had already investigated and uncovered the connection between Miranda and Seth. Seth's attacks on him and Nina weren't just driven by ambition and Nina's identity, but also by Miranda."Indeed, one can't keep secrets forever. But now that you've walked right into my trap, I won't let you leave. Nash, you've always looked down on me, and you even allowed Nina to scheme against me. You're so arrogant. I'm going to drag you down and make you my prisoner!" Miranda sneered.Nash's gaze was icy and filled with disgust.Suddenly, Nash’s soldiers rushed in, surrounding Miranda. Only then did she realize that Nash had tricked her. Of course, Nash wouldn't charge into enemy territory alone when his main goal was to rescue Nina.Nash slowly stood up, seemingly unaffected by the powder Miranda had used. She stared at him in disbelief. At this moment, she realized that Nash had only used her as a hostage,
Nash had his soldiers around him and also sharp instincts, so Seth's attempt to harm him failed. However, in any battle, casualties were inevitable.Seth didn't care about Miranda, and while Nash knew she was no longer a useful hostage, he wouldn't spare her either.Seeing the unfavorable situation, Seth waved a white flag to negotiate with Nash. "Nash, you came here for peacekeeping, to find an antidote, and to locate Nina. You have no deep hatred for the Yaren tribe, and there's no unresolved enmity between us."I can help you meet your demands. I don't want to be your enemy."Seth's primary goal was to rule the Yaren tribe and become the master of this land. Opposing Nash without leverage made him the weaker party.Nash dismissed Seth's pleas. "I want Nina."The antidote? The war? Life and death? None of that mattered. He needed to see Nina safe in front of him. Everything else was secondary.Miranda's heart ached as she looked at Nash. She felt foolish, still caring for Nash
