Things had been quiet for a while. Wilbur was able to find out from the news that there had been a huge change throughout Cametra in the past few days, and the medical industry was completely uprooted. The medical industry was one of the strongest pillars of Cametra, and the revolution was a huge blow to many businesses big and small. The news spread around the world quickly enough, and even the people from the Cultivators Association found out about it. Wilbur thought that the weather would clear up by the fifth day after so much rain, but the skies remained dark and cloudy, and the rain continued to rage on. Wilbur was about to get some beer to drink up a storm with Demetra once more, but Kyra came looking for him before he could head downstairs. Kyra looked at Wilbur with a serious expression. "Mister Penn, Mister Paul would like to see you." "Mister Paul? Where is he?" "Come with me." Kyra brought Wilbur to her room, where Paul was. Paul was wearing a coat, a wide-brim
Now, it was going to take someone to go underwater to restore the cables so that the cage could be opened to free the ocean beast. "The Dark Messenger's far more powerful than me. Why are you looking for me instead of him?" "The Messenger has a mission of his own to complete, and he has left Cametra. You're the only one who can help with this, Mister Penn. Of course, we'll compensate you handsomely for this once it's done." "I've just got one request," Wilbur said. "Take care of Tina and her mother. As long as you agree to that, I'll go." "Of course. That's no problem at all." That afternoon, Wilbur drove out of Aidementon with Paul. They sped all the way to the beach, driving into the Greensource Corp building by the water. Paul had the technicians show the structure of the cage hidden in the sea. The 3D image was pulled up onscreen, and Paul pointed something in front and a little to the left of the cage. "This is where the cables broke. Please help us restore them once y
The ocean beast was enormous. Wilbur looked like an ant in front of it. However, the beast seemed to be extremely sensitive to its surroundings in the water. When Wilbur appeared, the sleeping beast slowly opened its eyes. It got up abruptly when it saw Wilbur, striking its tail against the cage and letting out a series of deafening noises as if to show its hatred for humans. Wilbur had never seen a creature this big, and a chill ran down his spine as he froze at the sight before him, unsure what to do. Bang! Bang! Bang! Just then, the loud thrashing shocked Wilbur out of his stupor. He did not hesitate any longer, looking around him in search of the cable. According to the template, it should be in front of the left corner of the cage, but it was nowhere in sight. Upon making a round, Wilbur realized that the cable was behind the beast. The cage was a massive thing, but the unplugged cable had completely fallen into the mud at the bottom of the ocean. Wilbur swam to th
However, releasing the beast would require connecting the cable, or it would continue to rain heavily in Aidementon and even lead to a flood. Wilbur glanced at the cable that had fallen into the mud. He looked up at the beast, only to see that the beast was looking at him as well. From the size of the ocean beast, it was obvious that it usually fed on larger marine animals such as whales or sharks. Human beings seemed impossibly tiny in comparison, but the beast was looking straight at Wilbur right then, sending a chill down his spine. After all, no one would enjoy being stared at by such a huge creature. Wilbur did not know how to express to the beast that he was trying to help it and could only swim once again to where the cable was to pull it up. Wilbur originally planned to stay away from the beast and approach after bringing the cable up to a suitable height. However, the space he had to maneuver the cable around was not much to work with, so he could not go further than t
Wilbur saw that and leaped straight onto the beast's back as it continued to switch directions. However, Wilbur's gesture also made it so that the beast could not attack him effectively. Wilbur stared at the enormous creature below its feet, and a spark of murderous intent entered his head. He was trying to save the beast, but it was trying to kill him instead. What a foolish creature! Wilbur wanted nothing more than to have it killed. Yet he thought of his agreement with Paul, and the murderous intent promptly disappeared. Upon second thought, who knew how much torture the beast had had to endure since Greensource Corp had trapped it here? It was no wonder it hated human beings. It was not exactly surprising for the beast to act this way. Wilbur opened his heart and was about to think of a way to restore the cable. Just then, the countless spikes on the beast's back lit up with electric currents. The currents joined together, striking in Wilbur's direction. Countless electric
Wilbur looked down at the beast every now and then as he rose. The enormous creature was currently lying at the bottom of the ocean as if it were worshiping Wilbur. The beast's demeanor confused Wilbur. Despite the fact that Dashan myths spoke of dragons ruling the ocean, they were still considered fictional at the end of the day, and Wilbur did not particularly believe in them. Now that he was seeing an ocean beast in real life laying at the bottom of the ocean meekly bowing to him, Wilbur realized that those Dashan legends might be real after all. The dragons might have actually been the ruler of the ocean, else the ocean beast would not have bowed to it so obediently. Within a minute, Wilbur had returned to the shore from the bottom of the ocean. The staff came over to take the chains and clasp off of Wilbur. The staff in charge of taking off his special oxygen tank took a look at the data and gasped in shock. "That was close! The oxygen would have run out if you had stayed ju
Paul felt that it was only a matter of time before the beast returned to its senses. Thus, after giving out a few orders to the staff, he sent Wilbur back to Aidementon. Wilbur returned to his room and closed the door. At last, blood trickled out of the corner of his mouth. The battle at the bottom of the ocean had far surpassed Wilbur's limits. Despite the fact that he had exploded with power in time and released the electrical currents back into the water, his body was still greatly affected and the dragon's head mark on his back had not stopped burning. Wilbur did not mention it so as not to cause a fuss, but now that he was back home, there was no need to hide anymore. Wiping the blood away, Wilbur hastily took out a Thunder-type Healing Pill and swallowed it. He sat cross-legged on the bed resting after that and remained in that position until he was fully recovered in the evening. Wilbur was able to restore his health and powers significantly faster than before, and tha
Before Tina could speak, her mother replied, "Kyra and Demetra have left. Demetra said that he was leaving Cametra to look for Miyah and that you would always be a good friend of his. Oh, he also left you this letter." Tina's mother handed an envelope to Wilbur, which he did not open right away. "Thank you, ma'am. Let's eat." After dinner, Wilbur returned to the attic and opened the letter. Demetra was not particularly good with his words, but he expressed his gratitude towards Wilbur and brought up something. It turned out that Tina had cried the entire night after her mother had told her how she felt. Tina had no choice, and Demetra hoped Wilbur would not blame her. Wilbur sighed after reading the letter. Just then, Tina came into the room with a handkerchief she had finished embroidering. "I heard that Dashans like embroidery, and the dragon symbolizes luck and happiness. I thought of making you a handkerchief so you can carry it with you. Do you know how charming you look w
