Tonight, the Martin family had won it all, and so had Thomas.In Sterling Technology’s office, Diana caressed Flame’s head while she said, “Mr. Mayo, are you happy now? You’ve won it all. The ratings of ‘Good Voice of the Summer’ are at an all-time high. Who knows how much you’re earning?“Earning is not the most important thing, though. Most importantly, Mr. Mayo, you finally vented your anger and humiliated the Gomez family ruthlessly. I believe you can avenge your Uncle Alden very soon.”When she mentioned Uncle Alden, Thomas felt a little uncomfortable.He smiled faintly as he shook his head and said, “The Gomez family is not easy to deal with. They won’t collapse because of one failure. The success of ‘Good Voice of the Summer’ will definitely trigger the Gomez family to maliciously exact revenge on us. The most important thing for us now is not to feel happy, but to be careful. We must be aware of the Gomez family attacking back.”Diana chuckled and said, “Since you’re so ca
It should be known that Asura Hell actually belonged to the Diaz family!Thomas had helped Lyla and rescued her dog before, so Lyla had given Asura Hell to Thomas for free to express her gratitude.It was said that the area could generate an income of a few billion dollars every year.Thomas had originally been quite happy, but he now felt quite dumbfounded.After receiving it, he had not earned any money, and now, he was being charged with the crime of endangering public security. The police were even going to bring him away. He could not express the bitterness that he felt. Thomas frowned slightly.The other day, he had accompanied Lyla and Georgia to the site and looked around. That area really contained more dangerous animals like centipedes, scorpions, and toads, but they were safe enough to pet. It was impossible to go against the law.If it were against the law, the manager should have figured it out and stopped it.There had to be… a problem.Thomas turned back and gl
In the police station’s small dark room, Thomas sat in the iron chair alone. A while later, the door was opened, and a man walked inside.The man was the deputy director of that precinct, Aden Hartley.He instantly sat opposite Thomas, seriously stared at him for a few seconds, and burst out laughing.“God of War, did you get arrested?“Haha! If our superiors discover this, they would laugh their butts off.”Thomas sighed and said, “Stop joking. How’s the investigation? What’s going on?”Aden said, “I already investigated it thoroughly, but God of War, you’ll have to treat me to a meal later. I put in a lot of effort for you.”Thomas chuckled in resignation. “Okay, you can eat anything you want.”Aden did not waste any time talking again. He opened the document and told Thomas everything about the incident.First of all, the Gomez family had arranged for someone to report Asura Hell. Secondly, those dangerous animals had also been placed inside by the person that the Gomez fam
After that, she even set up a big trap for Thomas.Thomas did not earn any cent but he lost some money because of this, and he was even at risk of being jailed.Thomas really did not understand why Lyla would be so ruthless toward him. He had saved her dog, and she was not grateful for that. It was fine. Why did she repay his kindness with revenge?He really could not understand it.“Okay, I got it.” Thomas stood up and said, “My assistant will pay the bail of $10,000,000. Can I leave now?”“Sure.”Thomas got up and walked out. From the back, Aden added, “God of War, remember you owe me a meal!”Aden sighed slightly when he stared at Thomas’ back as he left.He muttered to himself. “The Gomez family and the Diaz family have cooperated to deal with him. Gah! Even though he’s the God of War, it’s also hard for him to resist being attacked by the two big families, right? I wonder if I can have a meal with him.”After Thomas left the police station, he got into Aries’ car.Aries
Lyla’s words stunned everyone. They did not understand what she was talking about.Thomas also looked stunned.Honestly, Thomas had offended a lot of people, but he did not remember when he had offended Lyla, especially when it concerned Lyla’s husband and son.Lyla’s husband was the head of the Diaz family and Georgia’s brother, Issac Diaz.Thomas did not have any involvement with that man at all.There was no kindness or grudge.So, how could Thomas have possibly sent Issac to jail?Besides, everyone knew that Lyla did not have a child. The so-called son she had was just a dog. So, how could Thomas send a dog to jail?It really made it hard for people to believe.Georgia also said, “Lyla, have you gotten anything wrong? Why don’t I understand anything you’ve said? My brother is on a working trip now. How can he be in jail? Also, you don’t have a kid.”Lyla finally spoke the truth while everyone felt puzzled.She laughed first before she glared at Thomas and questioned him.
Thomas chuckled in resignation and said, “I really sent Brad and Merrick to jail, but they killed innocent people and sold human organs. If I were to choose again, I’d still do it!“Madam Duncan, if you insist on avenging them, I have nothing to say. Goodbye.”He turned back and left.Lyla angrily threw the glass from the table to the ground.Georgia looked at Lyla before she glanced at Thomas who left. She subconsciously sighed and said, “Lyla, you really did wrong this time. Brad and Merrick deserved to be arrested based on the crimes they committed.”After she spoke, she got up and left to catch up with Thomas.“Mr. Mayo, please wait.” Georgia caught up with Thomas, sighed, and said, “Mr. Mayo, although Lyla made a mistake and offended you, I still hope you can forgive her.”Thomas smiled faintly and said, “I can only guarantee that I won’t take the initiative to provoke her. But, if she insists on forcing me, I won’t sit still and do nothing.”“Gah…” Georgia sighed and said
In the private room of a high-end nightclub in another state, the colorful lights shone brightly, and there was melodious singing. The head of the Diaz family, Issac, was lying on the big couch in the private room. He held a glass of red wine with one hand and held a woman in a coquettish outfit with the other.The woman was Bianca Knight. Her nickname was Drunk Flora, and she was the most famous woman in the area.She just served one man, and that was Issac.Whenever Issac went on a business trip, he would go there and find Bianca to have fun. He had even bought her a villa just to keep her. He would give her money and the manpower she wanted, and he loved her so much.Bianca looked very flirtatious. She was only in her twenties, which was still a youth. She was good at singing and dancing, so she easily captured Issac’s heart, just like Lyla in the past.Differently, Lyla was a prideful princess, while Bianca was a coquettish young girl.Bianca caressed Issac’s chest with her
“Did you slap me?” Lyla covered her face with her hand, and she was so angry that she shook.“I did slap you, w*nch!”Lyla did not understand why Issac wanted to scold her. What did she do to make Issac unhappy again?Georgia stepped forward as well and said, “Why do you start a fight as soon as you come back? Okay, let’s calm down, everyone! Stop fighting!”She did not expect it to be so awkward either.Although she knew that the married couple had a pretty serious relationship crisis, she did not expect Issac to slap Lyla as soon as he returned. It was too humiliating!Issac said, “Georgia, it’s none of your business. You can go and do your work. I’d like to settle the accounts with this w*nch.”Lyla hmphed angrily. She pointed at Issac and said, “You keep calling me a w*nch. What wrong have I done to make you insult me like that?”“What wrong have you done? Look at this yourself!”Issac took out a letter from his coat before he threw it on the tea table. The letter had been
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
