The rascal did not know much and thought that Cadell was trembling due to the freezing cold temperature tonight.He continued pointing his fingers at Thomas and said, “Little bastard, didn’t you hear me? I order you...”Before he could finish speaking, Cadell let out a yell, “Shut up!!!”The little rascal hurriedly shut his mouth, and he dared not to utter a word. However, he still looked very arrogant, thinking that Cadell was about to explode with rage.What happened next stunned everybody at the scene.Everyone saw Cadell tucking up his sleeves and knelt down!In front of so many people, Cadell was kneeling down before Thomas!!!The rascals were dumbfounded. ‘What’s the situation here? Not only did my boss not show his temper, but also he has admitted his defeat?’“Mr. Evans, what are you doing?”Cadell kowtowed twice in front of Thomas and said respectfully, “Mr. Mayo, I really did not know the target tonight was you. If I knew it was you, I would not have blocked your way
‘It turns out that my help had made him into my enemy.’Thomas smiled and said to Cadell, “Okay, I am clear about the matter. By the way, you won’t be able to go back and explain this to Larry, right?”Cadell smiled bitterly.‘Is there a need to explain?’He would be considered very polite if he did not go back to beat up Larry. That bastard was simply pushing him into the fire pit!Cadell said, “Don’t worry, Mr. Mayo. I will teach Larry a lesson as soon as I go back.”Thomas waved his hand, “No, you just cut off all ways of contact with him after you go back, and don’t care about other things.”Cadell nodded his head, “Roger that.”Thomas stood up, wiped the dust off his body, went straight back to the car, and drove away.Thomas did not want Larry to retaliate against Cadell because he had his own plan.After all, Larry was the captain of the team. Without the captain, the team would be instantly falling apart, which was very detrimental to the team.Thomas could not do an
Thomas became speechless. ‘How on Earth can this woman think in such weird ways?’On the contrary, Emma was still very immersed in her own world. Her eyes had become bloodshot, and said in a choking voice, “No wonder you haven’t had any physical intimacy with me for so long... Thomas, how dare you give all your energy to those rich women?”“You really disappoint me.”“Although our family is short of money, we don’t want this dirty money!”She pointed to the two Ferraris and said, “These are what you exchange for after selling your body? Drive these cars away. I don’t want to see them. They’re disgusting!”Thomas looked dazed.Although he was the God of War, he felt that there were also difficult problems he could not solve for the first time.His wife was good in every way, but she was a person with too much temperament. She also had an extraordinary way of thinking, and she could always think of things that he could not even think of.He coughed embarrassingly, “Emma, in fact,
Thomas shrugged. “Being a racecar driver is very dangerous, you know? I’m worried that you’d be worried.”“Then, why did you want to become a racecar driver?”“For money.”“Huh?”Thomas answered in resignation, “You know that I have a low salary. There are plenty of times where I will be looked down upon when I walk together with you. That’s why I want to earn more money so that you can puff out your chest with pride. This race will let me earn around one million dollars a month. If I get ranked, I can even get more than ten million dollars a month. If I do well, then we will no longer need to be troubled by monetary issues.”Emma’s heart melted when she heard this. She went over to hold Thomas’ hand. “Honestly, as we spent time together over this period of time, I understood something. There are plenty of times where money will not solve everything. Companionship and true love are much more valuable than money.”Thomas smiled and said, “Then, can I not go out and earn money?”
Glorious Sun was the place with the worst security in Southland District. No one was to come out at night in this place. Even during the day, the chances of someone being robbed, getting their valuables stolen, or getting scammed were really high. This was especially prominent in train stations, bus stations, and other such places. The good and bad people mingled together, and all sorts of people could be found. The average person would not dare come to this place. Even the criminals from other places would not dare to readily step into this place. Only demons could survive in this place. In an office of the Hill family’s office building were Richard, Jade, and Harvard. They were gathered together with smiles on their faces. Richard stared at the message on his phone and laughed before he said, “Emma has already departed. I wonder how she’s going to come back this time!”Jade said, “Glorious Sun is a place where even a strong man will be ripped off when he’s there, and a w
The feeling was terrible.Was this still the world that they were living in? Was this really not hell?Thomas looked calm. Before he came, he already knew how Glorious Sun looked like. Therefore, after he saw the situation, he kept his cool. “Follow me.”“Okay!”Emma followed Thomas as they walked in the direction of the factory’s office building. Luckily, Thomas had come with her. If she had arrived alone, she really would not have known what to do.Although she had heard that Glorious Sun’s security was not very good, it should not be that bad, right?While they walked, they could feel wicked gazes from everywhere. Meanwhile, a perverted-looking worker could no longer suppress his desire. He clapped his hands, stood up, and walked behind them.He pretended to walk past Emma, but he secretly extended his arm toward the small of Emma’s back.All the workers stared at the sight.They kept on staring and looked forward to hearing Emma’s scream. It was the most beautiful “mus
Ruthless methods and excellent skills... When Thomas acted, he immediately let those people know that he was absolutely not a kind person.However, the smell of blood would not get said “wolves” to step back. It would just trigger their ferocity.After one man fell down, more men rushed forward. All of them emitted a strong desire in their gazes, as they were desperate to own Emma.The woman! They only saw the woman.Emma was so scared that she kept screaming and her body trembled. She lived in a peaceful environment. When had she experienced something like that before?She was terrified by the situation to the point that she felt that a shiver run down her spine.That was a normal person’s response.Normal people usually did not put up resistance in such a situation. It was also one of the reasons why the workers were fearless. They had dealt with a lot of people like that before, and none of them could escape from these men.So, they naturally thought Thomas and Emma would be
“We’ll stop fighting now. We’re not fighting anymore.“Please, we beg you. We’re so sorry.“We dare not take your woman. Please leave. Don’t harm us, okay?”It was too late!Thomas ran toward the workers swiftly and swung his fists.Crack! Crack! Their bones were broken. In the worst condition, a person’s arm was twisted by Thomas before it was pulled out!His blood spurted out, and it was a miserable sight.A depressing scene was unfolding, and all the workers were groaning, as well as screaming while running away.But, where could they run to?Screams could be heard, and the floor was full of blood. Thomas’ eyes also turned red.Emma was his taboo. This bunch of people had touched his taboo today, so they were destined to have a sad ending as a consequence.While Thomas was excited to kill, a muscular man walked over and scolded them loudly, “Stop it!”Thomas paused for a second before he stepped on a worker’s belly and shattered his kidney into pieces.Thomas looked aro
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
