The hall became silent.The people were still so aggravated that they wanted to kill Socrates just now. But before they departed, they saw an open provocation like this. Most importantly, it seemed that they really could not do anything to Socrates.This was really annoying!The annoyance even could not be vented!This anger would injure their internal body!Aries cast a glance at Thomas before he looked at the people under the stage. He smiled bitterly as he shook his head.Socrates’ runaway was arranged by Thomas as compensation for him. Thomas wanted to thank him for taking all the heat for the Nolan family.However, those people below the stage were pitiful as they had no target to release their anger, especially Laura.She even said she wanted to kill Socrates, but what now? He was overseas now, and she could not catch him. When Socrates went back to his family, that meant he went back to his territory. She could not do anything to him. She looked at Thomas, and she was
As soon as the press conference ended, the doctors from the medical industry in Summer Land rushed to the place where the Nolan family stayed. They presented pennants, fresh flowers, and fruit baskets to apologize for what they had done, especially to Jacob.This man had knelt at the door for fourteen hours. He knelt from morning till night. He did not drink or eat at all, and he knelt under the sun.He initially looked like a gentleman, but he now looked very horrible.“Oh my, Jacob, please get up.”Everyone rushed forward to help Jacob to stand up. They immediately gave him the relevant treatment. Since the doctors there were famous and top, Jacob recovered very quickly.“You’re willing to kneel down here and beg for mercy. The men from the Nolan family are really incredible.”“To show our apology, we’re willing to take out more money to support the reconstruction of the Nolan family.”“The Nolan family is the role model for the medical industry in Central City. You can’t fall
“I don’t know. I asked him, but he didn’t want to tell me. He just said you’d know who he is when you meet him. I nearly wanted to call the police. This man is really strange.”“Okay. Where is he now?”“In the reception room.”“Okay.”Thomas directly walked to the reception room. He reached out to open the door only after he stopped at the door for two seconds.As soon as he opened the door, he saw a man whose figure was tall, big, and muscular. He was sitting upright in a chair in the reception room, and the cups in front of him were arranged neatly.When Thomas saw this, he knew that it was a soldier who had been properly trained for many years.“Tigris?”“Commander!”The man was a member of Power of Almighty. He had followed Thomas and fought in different wars for many years. Plus, he had a lot of achievements.In every war, he must lead and rush at the first. He did not care about the danger. His biggest wish was to die in the war. He was a real man.Tigris immediately g
Thomas’ expression changed slightly. He could not simply talk about this.“Tigris, be careful of what you say.”Tigris immediately explained, “Commander, don’t worry. I’m not asking you to commit any crime. There’s really a precious opportunity in front of you now.”“What opportunity?”“A qualification trial!”It was the first time that Thomas heard about this term. He felt puzzled, and he asked, “What’s that?”Tigris explained, “Commander, since you gave up the position, it has been vacant. The superiors were in a hurry, so they wanted to choose an outstanding successor. The problem is, all powers are aiming for this position. Choosing someone from any side would offend the other sides. So, the superiors decided to use a competition to decide the successor, which is the so-called qualification trial.“Shawn is the candidate appointed by Mr. Clark, and he is also a candidate who is expected to be the successor.“Do you know why Shawn is desperate to defeat you and prove he is b
Purgatory Dojo was the most famous dojo in Central City. The most excellent experts from various martial arts in Central City were in this place.There were fistfighting, judo, Muay Thai, wrestling, sumo, and taekwondo.As long as you had one skill, you could come to this place. There were ten floors in Purgatory Dojo, and there was an examiner on every floor. After you defeated the examiner, you could move on to the next floor.People who could reach the tenth floor were the outstanding experts.Beyond that, there was still the legendary Room of God.That was the room that you could enter only after being recognized by all the experts on the tenth floor.The room was vacant for a long time because nobody could be recognized by everyone on the tenth floor. If you wanted to be the elite and expert among all the experts, it would never be possible to achieve.It was until a person appeared. That was Capricorn.He just used one day to get to the tenth floor from the first floor.
What a joke. With Thomas’s ability, even ten examiners would not be able to defeat him. Was there a need for the fight?Thomas went straight upstairs without looking at him.As he stared at Thomas’s back while he went upstairs, the examiner wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to himself, “Darn it, what kind of monster is this?”Stomp. Stomp. Stomp.Thomas came to the second floor without much trouble.What happened on the first floor was repeated on the second floor. Thomas took no effort to defeat everyone, and the examiner was knocked out before he could even touch Thomas’s clothes.Next was the third floor.The fourth floor, fifth floor, sixth floor…The higher he went, the more capable the fighters were. However, it was only applicable to ordinary people. In front of Thomas, these people were simply as weak as kittens.In just ten minutes, Thomas fought from the first floor to the tenth floor.“Oh, a newcomer is here.” The experts on the tenth floor were very happy
The tenth floor of the Purgatory Dojo was a mess.The so-called experts were all lying on the floor, and they were unable to move. They watched Thomas walk towards the Room of God.Monster.He was an absolute monster.They had never seen such a powerful man in their lives.They thought that the certain one in the Room of God had abnormal strength, but they did not expect someone with even more abnormal strength to appear. They wondered what the results would be when these two people fought.They wanted to see it, but they did not even have the strength to get up.Over there, Thomas took a few breaths and said to the experts lying on the floor, “You guys are truly not bad since you guys kept me here for nearly ten minutes. This is truly praiseworthy.”So, these people were just “not bad”.There was still such a huge gap to become a real expert.Thomas did not stop to catch his breath and walked directly to the legendary door. He extended his hand and pushed the door. Then, he
“You can’t defeat me at all in your current state.”Capricorn sighed and said, “My goal in life is to defeat you, but it is not to defeat a rusty you. Commander, I don’t know what you’re hesitating about. I just hope you can get out of this state as soon as possible.“Because you’re really weak now.”After Capricorn finished speaking, he turned and was about to leave.“Wait.” Thomas stood up.Capricorn said, “I said that you can’t be my opponent now, so why bother…”Before he finished speaking, Thomas appeared behind Capricorn in the blink of an eye. The speed was so fast that he could not keep up with his eyes.The omnipotent Thomas seemed to be back again.“Is this it?“Great. Now it will be interesting.“This is the God of War I want to defeat.”Capricorn did not become timid because of Thomas’s awakening. He became more excited instead. He had been practicing for a lifetime in order to defeat Thomas in this state.“Come on. Let’s fight. Let me see the power of the real
No one knew how far down the title Emperor of Luck was inherited.They had finally caught Luck.Following that, Eric leaped into action and reeled in his haul as fast as he could. With that, all the remaining accomplices of Luck were caught in one fell swoop!The two million innocent citizens were saved, as all of them took the antidote.Once again, Thomas saved the day.In order to express their gratitude, the citizens decided to erect statues of Thomas in Celandine City and many other cities as well.In the House of Vistaria.Phoebe ran towards her father hurriedly. She then smiled at him and said, “What did I tell you, dad? Thomas will definitely turn things around, right? I won!”Declan was so agitated, that he started tearing up.Thomas was really too amazing. He was capable of turning things around, even in such a predicament.At the same time, the curse that had plagued the Mars family for over a thousand years was finally broken. From then onwards, Declan was finally
Luck was dumbfounded. Why was Thomas still alive and kicking?“No need to doubt your own eyes. I am indeed still alive.”The crowd parted, making way for a very familiar figure. It was Thomas, the very Thomas whom the public watched him die.As he walked, he said, “Our previous research has already reached ninety-nine percent completion. But no matter how hard we tried, the final one percent remained out of our grasp. At that time, I thought that perhaps the only way was to drink the Ancestral Water and experience the poison itself, which would allow me to have a breakthrough for the final one percent.“And that was what happened. I managed to do it.“After drinking the Ancestral Water, I finally understood what the one percent was and successfully created the antidote for Ancestral Water. Now that the antidote has been created, it will sever your connection with the Ancestral Water.“You will not be able to kill anyone anymore.“You have lost, Luck.”Lost?Luck's eyes were wi
It was obvious that Eric could not afford to take a gamble this time. But he had no choice. His only choice was to listen to whatever the other party said and prepare a helicopter in twelve hours’ time.That was not all. He was also supposed to request for his superiors to help Luck get out of the country.The thought of it made Eric furious.“Damn it!”He left in anger to deal with the rest of the matter.The sky of Celandine City was covered with clouds.The patriarch, Declan, was in his garden in the House of Vistaria. He stared at the withered flowers as he grieved.His entire life was spent supporting Mr. Cole in hopes that he would be able to create an antidote to Ancestral Water. But at the end of the day, Mr. Cole accomplished nothing.His two disciples — Capricious Holy Hand Elliot, and Thomas — were both dead.There was no one in the world who was capable of creating the antidote for Ancestral Water anymore.“Alas...” Declan sighed. It seemed that it was impossible
At that moment, the general public was suddenly dumbfounded, as if struck by lightning. Everyone was down in the dumps.Many of those with poor psychological strength directly collapsed on the ground.They believed Thomas' death could be exchanged for their own safety, but who knew, in the end, they got nothing, and Luck, as usual, used their lives as a bargaining chip to force the authorities to listen to His Majesty's words.No antidote to Ancestral Water would ever be created by chance.The lives of people were still in His Majesty's hands.Whenever luck wanted them to die, they would die without any ability to resist.However, this was not the most frightening part. What was even more frightening than this was that the only person who could create the antidote to Ancestral Water had been forced to die alive by them.It would be impossible to create the antidote to Ancestral Water without Thomas.Mr. Cole and Elliot had all died, Thomas was the last person who mastered the
Eric sighed deeply, "Thomas, even though things have reached this point, you still remain so kind.""I have nothing to say except to choose death because the research failed." Thomas let out a long breath. "Before I die, I want to talk to my family on the phone."Originally, Emma and the others came to Celandine City because they wanted to be reunited with Thomas.Who knew it had turned into a life and death situation?The world was like a chess game; everything was unpredictable.When Thomas was video calling with his family, Emma was already bathed in tears at the other end. She was crying and shouting at Thomas to not be impulsive, and saying perhaps there was still room for things to turn around.That was what she thought, but it was not the case.Every minute Thomas dragged on, more people perished as the result of Ancestral Water, and the crowd’s fear and rage grew.Thomas’ life no longer belonged to him."Honey, take care of the baby."I love you."Those were Thomas’
For such demanding research, half a day was really too short.Thomas had recruited the best doctors and researchers he could find to work on a detailed study of Ancestral Water.In the past, it was difficult to achieve breakthroughs in the research on Ancestral Water. That was because figuring out how to create an antidote for the Ancestral Water was challenging. On the other hand, it was also because obtaining the Ancestral Water was incredibly difficult. Because they only had a few samples, the results were underwhelming.However, it was different now. Because the entire city's water supply had been turned into Ancestral Water, they were able to collect the samples at their convenience. This made it much easier for Thomas and the others to get the materials.With Thomas in charge, hundreds of researchers were conducting a massive study in just half a day. Unfortunately, things did not go according to plan.Thomas still failed. “We almost got it.“We were so close to makin
How sinister. “All we want is nothing but—safety.“As long as we’re safe, we definitely won’t make it difficult for everyone. If we’re safe, no one will die.“Now then, I have a small request to make to ensure everyone’s safety.“I demand that Thomas drink Ancestral Water immediately! This person is a real hassle for His Majesty, and we must keep him under our control for our own protection. Please forgive us for the inconvenience.“We'll only give everyone half a day to consider this. The emperor will begin killing people if Thomas does not step forward and drink Ancestral Water by this afternoon.“Okay. I've said everything I wanted to say. Goodbye.” The TV screen went dark, and so did Eric's face.He kicked the trash can over and said fiercely, “What is this? You're the only person in the world who can create an antidote for Ancestral Water’s poison, Thomas!“Once you drink Ancestral Water, you’ll be controlled by them!“Won't you have to obey Luck's every command by the
After listening to Thomas’ description, Eric also displayed a look of shock and said two words, “As expected.”What did he mean by, as expected?Was it possible that Eric knew that Luck was behind it from the start?“Thomas, follow me.”Eric took Thomas into an empty ward and locked the door. The two sat in the corner of the ward.He whispered, “There is a piece of news that I haven’t announced to the public, that is, besides Celandine City, there are more than ten cities that have problems. Do you know which cities they are?”Thomas’ eyes lit up. He already knew what Eric wanted to say.At the previous meeting, Eric had clearly stated that more than ten cities across the country had been controlled by Luck. Now, there happened to have more than ten cities where residents had been poisoned.Was there such a coincidence?Thomas said, “The residents are poisoned by Ancestral Water. Over ten cities are all under the control of Luck’s forces, so it is almost a certainty that Luck
“I didn’t. I saw the news early in the morning and was shocked. I haven’t dared to drink a sip of water until now.” Pisces took a deep breath and said, “Is this a natural disaster or a man-made disaster? It’s really terrible.”No matter whether it was a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, it was no small matter.Soon, Thomas drove to the hospital.Eric had been waiting here for a long time. As soon as he saw Thomas coming, he quickly let him enter the ward.He saw a patient lying on the hospital bed with his eyes closed, and his body was trembling. Although it was very hot, he was as cold as if he had just been lifted out of the freezer.A doctor walked over and said, “Mr. Mayo, let me tell you the general overview of the current situation.”The virus was spread through water sources.After drinking water with the virus, the virus would lurk in the human body.However, lurking did not mean that it would cause an outbreak.At present, over one hundred thousand people had b
