Chapter 1182

Author: Dreamy Fire
"Felix, this young man is a descendant of an old friend of mine. He's been spoiled rotten and doesn't know when to shut up. Please don't take him seriously."

Felix watched Laurent, who still looked defiant despite being slapped. Now he understood the arrogance—this man had connections to the Protector.

"Let me ask you, sir. What's more important—your feelings for an old friend, or the fate of our nation? I don't understand why such an important place as Newtown would be handed to this triple-threat of incompetence.

"He has weak powers, zero emotional intelligence, and not a brain cell to spare. Have you turned foolish too?"

Already fuming, Laurent roared, "Felix Zeller! How dare you lecture the Protector himself? This is treason! Arrest him now!"

Laurent's men just looked at each other awkwardly. Arrest him? With what, their mouths? Come on, everyone knew how powerful Felix was. Did this idiot even have a functioning brain?

The Protector did not seem angry at all. He just l

    "We do!" The crowd roared in unison. Felix's actions today proved they had not made a mistake following him to the capital. Nothing about this felt staged, and they weren't foolish enough to miss that. As the crowd dispersed, Felix remained troubled. He had been blind to something obvious all along—people can be real pieces of work when given the chance. If this situation had continued, wouldn't people have lost faith? Everyone understood that voluntary cooperation would beat forced compliance any day. At least he had stepped in. He had sent a clear message by bringing down the hammer without even sparing the Protector's feelings. Nobody would dare try the same tricks again; making an example of one person was always the most effective way. "Alistair, you all knew about this already, didn't you?" From Alistair's arrival to the prepared evidence against Laurent, Felix could easily connect the dots. "Yes, Lady Summers arranged everything. You know that when the Protector is

    Barry asked, "So Felix, have you faced those Malevolent Phantoms yet?" Felix nodded. "Yeah. They're not as scary as you might think. The first time is rough, but it gets easier. That said, the powerful ones are really terrifying." Upon hearing these words from someone like Felix, Barry felt a chill. After all, Felix's power was already off the charts in everyone's eyes. Good times always flew by, and the days of rest vanished in a blink. At ten in the morning, Felix stood at Newtown's airport. "Stop acting like we're saying our final goodbyes. You two are something else." Cordelia wiped away tears, giving Deborah the same reproachful look. "You can't imagine how much a mother would shed tears for her son. I'm just making up for lost time." Deborah was speechless, though secretly excited. After years of hard work, she could finally relax without worry. "Hey, what a coincidence! Are you guys heading out too? Where?" Bern and his daughter Natalie appeared suddenly, and Ber

    There was a woman standing in front of the car despite the downpour. What gave Laura the creeps was the woman's bright red dress and matching red umbrella. Her face wore a smile that spread an eerie atmosphere around her."Should we go around her, Felix?"The rain was coming down so hard that no other cars were visible on this stretch of road. Laura figured the woman might have some mental issues."I'll go check it out."Upon hearing this, Laura considered another possibility. "Could it be a Malevolent Phantom?"If so, Laura needed to stay alert. This would be her first encounter with one. Even if she wasn't qualified to fight, she could at least observe carefully."Not sure." Felix thought there could only be two explanations for the current situation. Either this woman was mentally disturbed, or she was indeed a Malevolent Phantom. The heavy rain and lack of surveillance cameras made this an ideal spot for murder, though the location was somewhat unexpected. As Felix steppe

    Based on the essence fluctuations, they were probably an Aetherial Realm martial artist. The fact that they could kill a C-tier Malevolent Phantom shows they'd made real progress with soul techniques. "What a waste of talent, throwing themselves away like this," Felix muttered.Felix had a bad feeling. Was this a test run, or did they actually think this creature could take down a Grandmaster like him?He pulled out his phone and called Xena. "Did Elliott's experimental data get leaked?"Xena's response was firm. "Impossible! That data is extremely valuable, and the headquarters considers it top secret. It's classified beyond even us warlords' clearance, so there's no way it leaked."If it hadn't leaked, what was going on? The helmet, the C-tier Malevolent Phantom—everything pointed to Westorio Order's research. Had some other accident happened without their knowledge?"I'm sending you an address.

    The flute's melody carried a murderous intent. This could only mean one thing—Karina was locked in battle with someone. This kind of flute sound was inaudible to ordinary people. Only those with significant power could hear it. Felix did not hesitate for a second. After a quick warning to Laura, he bolted out the car door. In a nearby park dense with greenery, Felix had barely arrived when he heard a voice. "Who's there?" Felix could only laugh. Despite being a Grandmaster with his essence concealed to perfection, Karina had still detected him. "It's me, Karina." Karina stood there holding her flute, clearly surprised. "Felix? What are you doing here?" Before he could answer, Felix looked toward a spot where a man's head was swinging back and forth, laughing with a sinister edge. "Hehehe, you think you can kill me like that? Keep dreaming!" As the head spoke, a body grew beneath it, taking the form of a full-grown man. Without a word, Karina played her flute again. The

    That made sense. A Malevolent Phantom's body was not nearly as fragile as a normal human's. While Felix and Karina could make them explode with minimal effort, weaker martial artists would find it extremely challenging. "I finally get a chance to relax in the park, and this thing tries to kill me. Hmph! Talk about ruining my mood," Karina huffed.Felix was speechless. What was this Phantom thinking? Of all people to pick a fight with, it chose Karina? "What brings you to Kashmere, Karina?" he asked.Karina suddenly felt a flush on her face. She turned away and asked, "Since when do I need to report my whereabouts to you?" Felix knew better than to push the question. He quickly changed the subject and said, "Now that Phantoms have appeared, hasn't Mr. Hoffman asked you all to learn soul-reading techniques?" Among his nine fellow apprentices, only Naomi had trained in soul-related abilities. The others had not. "No. Mr. Hoffman made it clear long ago that we shouldn't learn oth

    The woman had big wavy curls and wore a white mini-skirt. She was beautiful, especially those large eyes that seemed designed to entice with every glance. Felix asked, "Do I know you?" She propped her legs up on the table without crossing them, just laying them flat. She was wearing a mini-skirt, and Felix was sitting directly across from her. From this angle, she was showing off everything possible, but she did not seem to care at all. "You can call me Bonnie Wildmare. I'm also one of the Ancient Sage's Eight Guardians." The Eight Guardians! Felix tensed up. He never would have guessed that a woman like this worked for the Ancient Sage. "Ashton insisted I tag along in case something unexpected happened. He was worried he couldn't handle you alone, and it turned out he was right—you had such a powerful fighter by your side. Hehe, Ashton's in for some trouble this time." Since she was one of the Eight Guardians and Ashton had called her, Felix was surprised but not afraid. "

    As Felix's hand touched the piece, it felt like it was being sucked in. In an instant, the chess piece became as heavy as a mountain and was impossible to move. What was more terrifying was that Felix felt something inside him being drawn into the chess piece. It was his soul energy! The chess piece was actually absorbing his soul energy, which was something unheard of. Looking at Bonnie, she was caressing her pale neck, her expression one of extreme pleasure. She even let out moans. "So there is something wrong here. You're actually trying to absorb my soul energy! How dare you!" Felix activated the Phaeron Codex. All restraints instantly vanished as he placed the red piece where the red light glowed. "Huh?" Bonnie, who had expected to enjoy the sensation much longer, was stunned that Felix had broken free so quickly. Her reaction was delayed because of that, and she hurriedly placed her piece after regaining her composure. After that, Bonnie's expression soured. Felix w
