Thomas took a step forward, facing Austin. Both Horace and Tigris were worried about him.They were wondering why Austin had dared to challenge Thomas.It turned out that he had known that Thomas was injured. He was really vicious.Was this character worthy of the title of God of War?He had the same temperament as Shawn.It was terrible!“Commander, be careful,” Tigris reminded worriedly.But now, it was too late to say anything. Everything could only be decided by Thomas. He had to figure it out himself.Thomas took a deep breath.“Let’s start.”“Are you ready?” Austin smiled evilly. “I won’t hold back then.”Austin rushed forward and punched wildly. The fist contained enormous strength, and it was beyond the reach of everyone.However…It was a powerful punch for ordinary people, but for Thomas. It could only be said to be average.Tigris said with disdain, “The commander could easily block such a punch without blinking his eyes.”In normal times, it was perhaps just
“Huh? What three moves?”Thomas explained, “Back then, Franklin deceived you. Although this matter was done behind my back, I still benefited from it in the end. I owe you one, and I have to pay it back. So, in this battle, I’ll let you attack one hundred times without counterattack. You have made ninety-seven moves just now, so you only have three moves left. You have to grab the opportunity.”What?Austin almost fainted.After fighting for so long, it turned out that Thomas was not counterattacking on purpose.He would not counterattack for one hundred moves?After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that this was really the case. Thomas had not fought back apart from avoiding and blocking the attacks.Tigris smiled.This was the God of War he knew.No matter what the situation was, Thomas would never lose. It was this spirit of never giving up that supported him until now.“Commander, you’re really the strongest!”Tigris was so happy that he almost jumped.Austin clen
Less than thirty percent?Austin cried his heart out while propping himself upon the ground with one hand.What on earth had he been doing all these years?He remembered when he lost to Thomas the last time, there was not that much of a difference between them compared to now. But after so many years of training, why did the gap increase instead?He did not realize that he was not the only one who had improved.Thomas’s speed of growth was far from what Austin could compare to. Thomas was stronger than Austin at that time, and now, he had even reached a height that Austin could never touch. That was the difference in terms of talent.Austin was sobbing uncontrollably.“Mr. Sparks, I’m really useless!”“You were inviting trouble on yourself!” Horace sighed as he observed his dejected demeanor. “Why did you have to keep a grudge toward Thomas when I had told you to stop challenging Thomas a long time ago? You assumed that just because Thomas was injured, you would be able to de
After looking into a bunch of trivial matters, Thomas was finally able to return to Sterling Technology to take a little break from his busy life. He stood by the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, overlooking the landscape of Central City, and felt a lot more relaxed.But it was just a moment of peace for him. Thomas was soon reminded of his responsibilities, and he could not help but feel the pressure weighing down on his shoulders.He had to reclaim the position of God of War. First and foremost, he had to tread carefully around the Gomez family, find another dependable “new force” for Sterling Technology in the shortest time possible, and break free from the Gomez family’s control.Only after that, could he face the Gomez family’s head, Nicholas Gomez, in a battle.He had to win this battle for the sake of Uncle Alden. Thomas sighed heavily as he stood in front of the glass. Things were piling up on his shoulders one by one, but even Superman needed to take a break now and
That was what happened to the Science and Technology Alliance recently. To sum it all up, the authorities no longer wanted to be in charge of the alliance, so they planned to elect a leader to manage it.They had stumbled upon the Scepter of Athena project by chance. As a result, they came up with the idea that whichever company completed the research, their chairman would become the alliance's leader.Naturally. It sounded like it was a good deal, but it was actually a big hoax.“First, you have to finish the project research, which could cost up to a hundred million dollars,” Diana stated dryly. “Not all companies could fund such a high-priced project.“Now, what do you get in exchange for a hundred million dollars? Only a five-million-dollar prize and the position of alliance leader.“Five million dollars is nothing compared to the cost of research. No one would be that stupid and complete the project for the reward. Would anyone even want to be the alliance’s leader then
At Central City’s South City Airport. Outside the airport, a dark blue Lamborghini was parked. Laura, a woman with a wonderful figure and a stunning face, was standing by the car like a supermodel, patiently waiting.Strange looks were cast her way by people passing.Many men even brought out their phones to take pictures in secret. They did not know when they would get another chance to experience this spectacle of beauty and a luxurious car.After a while, a tall man approached her while dragging his luggage. He was coughing a lot and walking with a handkerchief over his mouth, and his face was as pale as paper, indicating that he was really sick.Laura greeted the man with a smile on her face as soon as he walked out.There were not many people in the world who could make Laura laugh, let alone men. “It’s been a long time, Kerry.” Although it was a simple greeting, Laura said it with a happy tone. They had been separated for almost a year and had finally reunited. The s
In the end, Laura decided to confess. She told Kerry all that had happened during this period.Kerry remained silent for a while after listening to everything.He leaned against the car seat and looked out the window. No one knew what he was thinking about.Much later, Laura could not help and said, “I told you I could not tell you about all of this, but you insisted on me saying it. This—"“Laura. ”“Yes? ”"Weiss’s death, Godfather’s illness, and your sadness, I’ll remember them. " Kerry looked out the window and said, "Thomas, right? Even if he is immortal, I want him to die without a grave!"Laura was shocked and said, “Kerry, don’t you mess around. I didn’t tell you this so that you can fight ‘against’ Thomas. He is very powerful, and you’re a seriously ill man.”Laura was really panicking.She would not have said those things if she had known.However, Kerry calmly continued, “Don’t worry, I’m not the kind of person who doesn’t have a brain. Weiss’s defeat might have be
In the blink of an eye, time passed.The ‘Scepter of Athena’ project conference led by the Science and Technology Alliance was held the next afternoon.All of the executives from major corporations who had a certain standing in Central City had arrived.Despite the fact that not everyone was interested in that project, they attended the conference to show respect to the Science and Technology Alliance because of their official standing.People began arriving one after the other.There were rows upon rows of seats. The huge arena was fully crowded.Many business directors took advantage of the opportunity to exchange business cards and become familiarised with other directors.Sterling Technology and Pivot Technology were the only two companies that stand out among so many others.Both of these companies were extremely powerful at the time, and they served as the "face" of Central City. Even though Pivot Technology’s stock had fallen off sharply earlier due to some negative news
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
