Glory Real Estate, Chairman’s office. Zion sat on the sofa, trembling from head to toe, not knowing if it was from fear or nervousness.Sitting in his chair and dissatisfied, Warren slammed his hand on the table and scolded, “Zion Krammer what were you doing? You took a billion bucks from me to do this and this is the result?”Zion gritted his teeth and snarled, “You shut the hell up! I lost a hundred and fifty troops because of that and the Viper Gang has been wiped out clean. I’m angrier than you right now.”“Hoho, I don't care if you're angry or not, all I care about is whether or not my money is being wasted,” Warren said angrily. “Your members definitely won’t be able to get out, and the Viper Gang will never exist again. So, you won’t be able to deal with Thomas now, right?” Zion lifted his head and looked at him. “What are you trying to say?”“Huh, you don’t get what I’m trying to say? Since you’re unable to deal with Thomas now, quickly return the money. A billion dolla
Zion fished out his phone. “Then I’ll tell the rest of the lackeys to prepare right away. Shalom Technology, Thomas Mayo, none of them should dream about surviving!”......Right now, inside Shalom Technology.Thomas sat in the chairman’s office, and near him sat Anna Caspian and Ryan Hudson.After a while of silence, Thomas said, “Even though Uncle Ben is not here, Shalom Technology can’t be abandoned, as the company still needs to develop. Ryan, from now on, the position of general manager is yours. You must help me in taking care of Shalom Technology.”Ryan stood up and said, “Yes, sir!”He was well aware of the significance of the duty entrusted to him.At this moment, there was a knock on the office door.“Come in.”The door opened, an underling walked in and whispered into Ryan’s ears.Ryan nodded and dismissed him.“What happened?” Thomas asked.“Boss, the spy I sent out just came back with the latest information that Warren and Zion had just met. Zion contacted his
Ryan and Thomas were both extremely intelligent, and they did not require much conversation because they could understand each other with just one or two sentences. But that was not the case for Anna.She took a glance at Ryan, then at Thomas, but she was still confused because she had no idea what they were trying to do.Anna was quite speechless. “What’re you guys trying to do? Can’t you make it any clearer?”Thomas and Ryan exchanged a glance and smiled but did not say anything.Immediately, Thomas told Anna, “Anna, don’t just stand there. Quickly return to Scott’s Remembrance Cultural Arts Entertainment and gather up the influential mainstream media, then go wait near Glory Real Estate.”“Why?”“You’ll know there’d be big news if you wait there.”“Please elaborate.”“It’s no fun if I go into too much detail. Go ahead, this news will definitely be a hot issue for a few days.” Anna left the office confused. She had no idea what Thomas and Ryan were planning to do from the
Zion Krammer stood up, and he gave a crooked grin. “All the vipers have been released. I would like to see how Thomas deals with this incident.“The whole of Shalom Technology is finished now. They won’t be able to survive this.“Even if Thomas survives, his company would be ruined!”Warren and Zion exchanged glances, and they were both very satisfied with it.Undoubtedly, Zion could really be described as an “extremely cruel and merciless” individual. This kind of sinister idea that arose from him was not what ordinary people could think of.Even if anyone could think of the idea, no one was able to execute it.After all, not everyone was as crazy as Zion, who usually played with vipers in his free time.Warren lit a cigarette and started smoking. He said delightfully, “Then, we just have to wait patiently now. The only flaw is that we won’t be able to see those vipers going on biting people. This won’t be exciting at all.”Before he finished speaking, they heard a commotion o
“Don’t come close to me, don’t come close to me!”“Don’t you know who I am? I am your master. I feed all of you with meat every day!”“All of you have to take orders from me, you can’t hurt me, you know?”‘How absurd this is.‘Is he talking to a group of cold-blooded animals? They would not care about him at all.’Zion was able to avoid one or two of the snakes. However, when all the snakes were swarming up at him, he could not avoid them all at once.With a clicking sound, a viper had bitten his calf firmly.“What…”Zion fell to the ground in pain. Before he had time to examine the wound, he saw a viper swimming into one leg of his pants.“No, get out, get out now!”Zion reached out to stick his hands down his pants. However, the more he tried to get rid of the snake, the faster the snake slithered.He was so frightened that he quickly loosened his belt to open his pants. As soon as he opened his pants, he saw a dark, brown triangular-shaped tongue popping out that bit his
“Ah…”One of them picked up a chair and leaned against the wall tightly. He made a threatening sound at the vipers that were attempting to approach them.But all that proved to be useless. In the vipers’ eyes, they were unworthy creatures.At that moment, not far from the periphery of Glory Real Estate, Anna arrived with a crowd of reporters.These people were all reporters of Scott’s Remembrance Cultural Arts Entertainment, or reporters who were very close to her.They were all full of curiosity, ‘Why did Anna bring them here?’Not only did they not know, but Anna herself was not sure of the reason they were here in the first place. Thomas and Ryan had not told her much.But just after they got out of the car, everything became clear.‘My goodness, there were shattering shrieks, screams, and calls for help from the entire office building of Glory Real Estate.’The ear-piercing screams were truly unbearable.They quickly ran to the office, but they all came to a halt after a
Warren and Caleb were leaning against the wall. They were scared out of their wits. Their bodies were shivering and they were experiencing cold hands and feet.Hearing the other staff screaming in pain outside, the two of them cried out in fright.Just when they were at their wits’ ends, the door was forcibly knocked down. A large group of heavily armed police broke in and captured the venomous snakes.When they saw the police, Warren was so excited that he became speechless.“Dear police officers, I’m so glad that you have finally come to my rescue! I was almost bitten to death by these snakes.”Warren sat down as he was feeling vexed and feeble all over his body. He breathed a sigh of relief after all the venomous snakes in the house were captured by the police.“Retreat. Retreat quickly.”Warren left the scene with Caleb and they ran away from the office building.In a split second, a large group of reporters rushed up, wanting to conduct an interview.Warren did not care t
He thought it was impossible.Just as the two were sighing, suddenly, the butler came holding a box.“Master, someone has just sent you something.”“Who?”“The man did not say anything but signaled me to give you this item. He said that it was a surprise.”Warren frowned and thought, “Who is this mysterious guy?”He received the box curiously, stretching out his hand to open and uncovering it.What he saw was a dark brown viper with a triangular head in the box!“Ah…”Warren and Caleb were scared out of their wits. One guy fell directly to the ground. The other guy squatted on the ground like a dog with arms crossed over his head and started shaking terribly.But after a long while, the viper remained motionless.Only then Warren discovered that the viper in the box was not a real viper. It was just a realistic toy that could only move at the push of a button.He breathed a sigh of relief and patted Caleb, who was crossing arms above his head, “It is just a fake.”“Huh? It
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
