Ruby, who was hidden in the shadows, did not notice anything unusual. When she heard Mr. Chardon’s words just now, she knew that he had already activated his pineal gland, and she instantly heaved a sigh of relief.Although she did not get along with Mr. Chardon, the death of Mr. Jothurn gave her a feeling as if they were interconnected. Now that Mr. Chardon had activated his pineal gland, he could be considered to have escaped from the clutches of death!At this moment, Mr. Chardon’s expression became even more ferocious at an extremely fast pace! It only took a second or two for his pineal gland to be activated, and he felt a blazing and incomparable raging fire ignite in his brain. This fire, like a supernova explosion, rapidly expanded and strengthened! The pressure on his pineal gland was also increasing!It felt as if a huge mountain had been forcibly stuffed into his brain! The excruciating torment was comparable to the eighteen layers of hell!Charlie also realized the enor
The intense and thunderous explosion instantly reverberated throughout Aurous Hill, even waking up the entire city from its nocturnal slumber. The valley where the explosion occurred had its dense vegetation obliterated, forming a circular blank space with a radius of several hundred meters.Mr. Chardon had completely vanished without a trace, his entire being vaporized, leaving no residues behind.The notion of ‘a soul surviving despite the death of the physical body’ was nothing but a deception. It was an empty promise given to them, luring them to sacrifice themselves generously.Mr. Chardon only realized at the moment of his death that the formation the British Lord had left inside their pineal gland thirty years ago was not something capable of preserving a strand of their souls. Instead, it was a tremendously powerful self-destructive formation. In a critical life-or-death situation, what they believed to be a hope for being reborn had turned out to be a means to perish with t
She knew that today's explosion after Mr. Chardon had detonated his pineal gland meant that both he and Charlie were now dead. This presented the perfect opportunity for her to disappear without a trace. At this point, she had no desire to return to the Qing Eliminating Society or continue serving the British Lord. In her eyes, this person was extremely terrifying, and staying by his side would likely lead her to an outcome that was no worse than Mr. Chardon’s fate.Instead of that, she thought it would be better for her to seize the opportunity to vanish from the world. After recovering from her injuries, she could find a suitable place to live in seclusion and make the most of the remaining two years of her life. For her, living freely for two years would be much better than living for another two hundred years with the British Lord.With this thought in mind, she endured the intense pain and continued to crawl laboriously into the depths of the mountains.-Three minutes ago, at
Having said that, Albert, who was in a state of panic, immediately rushed out and jumped onto the helicopter waiting in the courtyard directly. He then anxiously told the pilot who was on standby, “Quick! Take off!”At this moment, a figure quickly ran out, and Merlin jumped onto the helicopter with just a few quick steps, saying, “Mr. Albert, I'll go with you!”Albert hurriedly said, “Chief Lammy, I am acting on Master Wade's orders to ensure the safety of you and the Acker family members. It's better for you to stay here!”Merlin shook his head and said, “Mr. Albert, don't forget that I am a police officer. If there's any unexpected situation, especially in investigating the scene, no one is more professional than me!”After some consideration, Albert agreed and said, “I’ll have to trouble you then, Chief Lammy!” After saying that, he turned to the pilot and said, “Take off!”The helicopter increased the throttle and rose from the ground, speeding toward Willow Manor. As they
Merlin’s heart suddenly skipped a beat when he heard Albert say that the shell fragments in his hand belonged to Charlie. He muttered to himself, “Charlie’s belongings? Doesn't that mean he has met with a mishap?”With that said, he quickly lowered his head to carefully examine the traces left by the explosion. By observing the direction of the explosion shockwave, he then found more fragments of the Tridacna on the ground.His face turned pale, and he muttered, “Charlie’s belongings are so close to the center of the explosion. Doesn't that mean he was right in the line of fire when the explosion happened?!”Upon hearing this, Albert’s eyes welled up with tears, and he burst into tears. He was in disbelief as he said to Merlin, “Chief Lammy, Master Wade is incredibly powerful. This kind of explosion shouldn't harm him at all, right?”Merlin squatted on the ground, picked up a piece of hardened black soil, rubbed it forcefully, and then sniffed it. He had a worried expression as h
Isaac did not say anything but instead held his cell phone screen in front of her.When Rosalie saw the words on the phone screen, tears instantly welled up in her eyes. The words on the screen read: ‘Young Master is in trouble. Please keep it quiet and help gather the Harkers to search for clues together!’Rosalie did not speak but nodded heavily. Soon, more than ten Harker family members hurriedly gathered, boarded a helicopter, and flew back to the scene of the incident.When Rosalie saw the horrifying scene at the scene, she felt as if her heart had been torn apart, and her tears were uncontrollable. However, she wiped away her tears and searched for clues on the periphery of the circular explosion area together with the Harker family members. The dozen or so people kept expanding their search range, even covering a radius of one kilometer from the explosion center, but they still found no traces related to Charlie at all.Not a single one of them uttered a single word from t
From the moment he lost consciousness, Charlie had no idea how long he had been drifting in the void until finally, a faint light suddenly appeared before his eyes.At this moment, along with the faint light came intense pain and an extreme sense of weakness. This sense of weakness was so overwhelming that he could not even muster the strength to open his eyes.Soon, he felt that his body seemed to be enveloped in a warm sensation, and this warmth seemed to provide some relief to the intense pain all over him. He then discovered that the warm feeling was lifting him upward.Afterward, he heard a familiar voice exclaiming in his ear, “Charlie!” This call allowed Charlie’s vision to gradually return.When the weakened Charlie opened his eyes and saw the person in front of him, he was utterly stunned because he suddenly discovered that the beautiful girl soaking in the hot spring pool, revealing only part of her beautiful shoulders, was none other than the mysterious Vera!Charlie wa
Charlie felt that his brain was completely exhausted, and he couldn't make sense of the logic at all. At this moment, he suddenly remembered that Vera had used the name ‘Veron’ during her visit to Aurous Hill, but after meeting him, she referred to herself as ‘Vera’.Although there was only a slight difference between the names ‘Vera’ and ‘Veron’, the meaning was extraordinary for Charlie.He almost instantly felt a chill down his spine and weakly asked in shock, “No… Do… Do you remember me?”Vera nodded and struggled to hold the weak Charlie as she moved toward her bedroom. She said softly, “Charlie, you saved my life in Northern Europe. I’ll never forget that!” Charlie was extremely shocked. He muttered, “Why… Why can you still remember? Could it be… Could it be that you’re a cultivator as well?”Vera smiled shyly and said, “Charlie, I’m not a cultivator, but my body is a little special, so you can’t erase my memories…”After saying this, she felt the physical contact between
