Chapter 509

작가: Dreamy Fire
"Who's this fellow?" Dalton asked. He was confused at the sight of Felix. After careful thought, he realized that he had never seen him before.

"Dad, he's Felix Zeller," Brock answered. "Just now, the people from Martial Alliance—"

Before he had even finished speaking, Dalton's expression darkened.

"Martial Alliance came again?" he asked in distaste. "Do they really think us Meyers are pushovers? Why didn't you call me?"

Brock smiled wryly. "Why else, other than that we were afraid you'd worry?"

What would they achieve by calling Dalton anyway? They had already exhausted their connections. Who would dare help them once they heard that the Meyers had offended Xerxes' personal subordinate?

"Although this may sound shameless, when Curtis arrives later, I'm going to ask him for a favor even if I have to beg for it. The situation with Martial Alliance is ridiculous!"

Xena was the Phoenix Warlord. Handling a minor issue like this would be child's play to her.

"The matter's already be

    Curtis frowned, asking, "He's the person you were talking about?""That's right," replied Dalton.Sometimes, situations arose in which one needed to exercise discretion.Felix spoke up at that moment. "Mr. Meyer Senior, Mr. Summers Senior, I'm expecting a guest back home. I'm afraid that it's not an appointment I can reschedule, so I'll take my leave first."After Dalton had escorted Felix out, Curtis started questioning him again."Are you sure he was the one who helped your family and that he didn't ask for any reward?"Whatever the two old men discussed regarding the situation with Martial Alliance, it was no longer Felix's concern. He had already achieved the outcome he wanted—although he knew that Curtis wouldn't change his mind about him due to this incident alone, it was still a good start.…At that moment, there was an electric scooter lying on its side on a street in Canraville, and not far from the scooter lay an old man. There were many onlookers gathered around, an

    "Who the hell's trying to play hero now?" Damon turned around, and his face immediately dropped. "Dr… Dr. Leonard?" Murmurs rippled through the crowd. "Isn't that the specialist from Mercy Hospital, Leonard Ziegler?" "It really is! Just last month, I waited two weeks to get an appointment with him for my mom." "Could this young man be some kind of medical prodigy? Even someone like Dr. Leonard is vouching for him." Clearly, Damon recognized Leonard and started stammering, "W-Well… if Dr. Leonard vouches for him, I have no objections." Felix was puzzled. He did not know Leonard. Given his own young age, it also seemed incredible that such a distinguished expert in modern medicine would vouch for a stranger in a life-or-death situation. Nevertheless, saving Arthur was the priority. Felix immediately began the acupuncture treatment. Within minutes, Arthur opened his eyes and managed to stand up with Felix's help. "Dad!" Damon exclaimed joyfully. The onlookers were amazed. A

    The note read, "Felix, I've mastered the forbidden technique. Do you dare face me again tonight at the peak of Eastern Mountain?" Was it Solomon again? Felix smirked. He had spared Solomon's life last time to send a message, and also because he did not have martial powers then. It was a tactical retreat, but things were now different. If Solomon was so eager to die, why should Felix spare him? He had thought the Elders' Council would lay low for a while, but apparently not for long. As night fell, Felix drove toward Eastern Mountain. The familiar scenery reminded him of his previous misunderstanding with Xena, which was all because of this mountain. Near the mountain, he encountered a roadblock manned by armed Wolfie troops. He stopped and lowered his window. The guard spoke, "This area is temporarily restricted. Please take a detour." Detour? Where to? This was the only road up the mountain. "Alright." After driving a short distance away, he pulled over and reached for his

    "Dexter Grimshaw!" Timothy shouted.Timothy's eyes flashed with intense focus as he suddenly turned toward a large boulder. Sure enough, a figure now stood atop it. It was a short, middle-aged man with dark, withered skin whose appearance could make one's stomach turn. His beady eyes radiated a bone-chilling gleam. Even without looking, Timothy would have recognized the Jack of Hearts from Thirteen Aces by his voice alone. "So you've shown up with your elite squad. It seems someone really did sell me out! Never mind, it actually helps clear up some questions I had," Dexter mocked.Timothy's presence was overwhelming as he sneered. "Heh! You're quite composed. Have you accepted your inevitable death and come to beg for mercy?" Dexter's eyes narrowed, rage flickering within. "Did you think I'll still get beaten up by you like before? If I'm showing myself, you're not leaving here alive!" Timothy showed no fear. He hadn't ascended to the rank of Martial Saint and became one of t

    Timothy could not avoid the blade in time as he was still recovering from his previous move. It sliced through his right thigh, instantly revealing his bone as blood sprayed outward. "Damn it! He doesn't feel pain, does he?" Then it hit him–of course Solomon felt nothing. He was Dexter's zombie creation now. Catching movement out of the corner of his eyes, Timothy fought through the pain. He made a feint before charging straight at Dexter, who stood watching from his perch on the boulder. Despite Timothy's rapid approach, Dexter's face showed only amusement and no fear. "You think you're worthy to face me?" Dexter sneered.Just as Timothy expected, Solomon moved with frightening speed to block his path. As minutes ticked by, wounds appeared across Solomon's body as exhaustion creeped into his features. Though Timothy's elite guards tried to assist, Dexter's four zombies, who were equally immune to pain and injury, kept them thoroughly occupied. "Mr. Hunter, Solomon could ac

    Timothy stood frozen in shock. Felix had severed both of Dexter's legs with just a flick of his finger, leaving the notorious criminal barely clinging to life with just his upper body. At that moment, Timothy understood something. Felix had to have achieved the Innate Realm. Nothing else explained such overwhelming power. Good God, wasn't Felix just supposed to be a traditional medicine practitioner? Sure, the best practitioners train in both medicine and martial arts, but this is ridiculous! "Perhaps this is your destiny." Felix gazed into Solomon's struggling eyes before striking with his palm. In that final moment, Solomon managed to smile. It was rigid and unnatural but filled with unmistakable relief. "Mr. Hunter, would you call this self-defense?" Felix asked.Timothy let out a bitter laugh, his demeanor now completely different from their first meeting. "Absolutely." With one step, Felix sent Dexter's four zombie warriors flying, never to rise again. Timothy's men rus

    "Yes. Lady Summers is at the foot of the mountain," Timothy said. "I'm not part of your organization, so there's no point for me to claim credit. Give them all to Xena," stated Felix. Watching Felix vanish, Timothy examined his battered body and sighed deeply. "Damn! The ladies really do have it better."…At the mountain's base, Xena and Alistair grew anxious as time dragged on. "Lady Summers, could something have gone wrong?" Alistair asked.Xena shook her head. "That's unlikely. Timothy reached the level of Martial Saint last year. He should be able to handle Dexter."Just then, Alistair spotted movement. "They're coming!" They rushed forward, shocked to see Timothy's battered state and torn clothes. "Did Dexter escape?" Timothy pointed. "His legs did. The rest of him is right here." One of his men emerged as he dragged the unconscious Dexter over. The sight of his severed legs was gruesome, but the mission was accomplished. "You need treatment at the Wolfie troops

    Felix's expression remained neutral when he heard the mention of Xena. He knew Nala must have been eavesdropping when he spoke about treating Lionel over the satellite phone. It was ridiculous. Did he need Nala's permission to interact with women now? "Fine." He took the phone as he was curious about Nala's game. Nala's voice came through after the call was connected, "I assume you only took this call because it concerns Xena, right?" Felix's tone was cold. "Since you know that, skip the small talk. We have nothing to discuss." He heard her breath quicken slightly before she continued. "Very well. Straight to the point. I have evidence of Xena's violations. Once reported and verified, she'll lose her position as the Phoenix Warlord." Felix furrowed his brows before letting out a short laugh. "Interesting. What's the deal here? Are you going to ask me to sleep with you, and you'll hand over the evidence?" "You... You scoundrel!" Nala was furious, and even Yvonne gaped in d

    Inside the pavilion, Felix reached the top floor. He spotted a young man with tan skin lounging on a couch. On the floor beside him was a pitiful-looking woman. The woman did not react to Felix's arrival at all. Her eyes were blank. The young man, however, spoke up. "Check her out. Can you fix her?" Felix did not move. Instead, he asked, "What happens if I can heal her?" This young man was clearly Koros, the Malevolent Phantom. He looked up at Felix with surprise. "Interesting. You're the first person who didn't even bother looking at her before trying to cut a deal." Though Felix stayed silent, his expression made it clear he was waiting for an answer. "It's simple. If you heal her, I'll leave Medic's Haven, and all these people can go on living their lives. Pretty good deal, right? But the real question is—can you actually do it?" Felix remained rooted to his spot. "I thought A-tier Malevolent Phantoms were stuck in their territories. How are you moving around freely?"

    Magnus was the Supreme Elder of Medic's Haven and had met with Felix not long ago. He was a man of integrity who had devoted himself to advancing traditional medicine. Yet, he was now dead and couldn't even rest in peace. After all, his body had been torn to pieces and hung up as a warning to others. "Screw this! I'll kill that bastard!" Finally, Felix could not contain himself anymore. He was here to kill the Malevolent Phantom anyway. The process didn't matter as long as he could get the job done. Claro and Roger were terrified. They seemed to have anticipated this reaction and rushed to persuade him, "Dr. Zeller, please stay calm!" "You absolutely cannot act rashly. Though we also want to avenge Mr. Grimwald, that Malevolent Phantom holds the lives of thousands of people in Medic's Haven." Felix slowly sat back down, remembering what Xena had told him. If he couldn't figure this out, he could not afford to move. He couldn't bear the responsibility for thousands of deaths

    Felix looked at the middle-aged man who had just appeared. The man's gaze was icy cold, and he definitely didn't look like he was joking. Felix asked, "Is that so? Where should I strip?" While pointing with his right hand, the middle-aged man spoke firmly. "Right here." Felix couldn't help but snicker. "What an unreasonable demand." He had never heard that visitors of Medic's Haven were required to strip for a body examination. Not just Medic's Haven—there couldn't be such an unreasonable requirement anywhere else in the world. "Fine then. I wish Medic's Haven continued success." With that, Felix turned to leave but was suddenly called back. "Wait, young man. Don't go yet." Felix turned around to see another middle-aged man who had just emerged. As the man was about to speak, his eyes suddenly widened. "Are you Dr. Zeller?" Felix wondered if that man had recognized him. This wasn't surprising, considering the commotion Felix had caused at Medic's Haven back then. After

    Jack mumbled, "Damn it, I'm so jealous you have so many wives."Felix thought to himself, "Oh no." And sure enough, Vanessa's face darkened with anger. "Nessa, he's just talking nonsense while drunk. Don't take it personally." Vanessa stretched her neck and smiled, though her smile made even Felix feel uncomfortable. "Listen to yourself. Why would I get upset over what some drunk man says?" As he watched the car drive away, Felix silently mourned for his good friend. He guessed that when Jack woke up tomorrow, he'd be in for a world of hurt. The next morning, Felix was in the car heading toward Medic's Haven when he received a call from Donna. "There's an A-tier Malevolent Phantom inside Medic's Haven. Don't worry, an S-tier would absolutely never do something like this." So it was indeed an A-tier, just as he had suspected. "How did this thing manage to erase ten people's souls simultaneously? And according to the monitoring personnel on site, no one even saw the Malevo

    Felix thought he had misheard. There was no way Malevolent Phantoms would provoke humans. "Do you know what you're talking about?" On the other end, Xena raised her voice, as if to remind him that this was serious business. "You heard me correctly! Do you remember Medic's Haven?" "Of course I do." Because of a man named Ethan, Felix had visited Medic's Haven back then. He hadn't paid much attention to it since then. After eliminating some corrupt elements, Medic's Haven's existence had only benefited Dragonia with no downsides. Many highly skilled traditional medicine practitioners were trained there, and Silas was one of them. "What does this have to do with Medic's Haven?" Xena continued, "A Malevolent Phantom has appeared at Medic's Haven and claimed to have occupied the place. It's demanding we send highly skilled medical practitioners there, or it will start killing people." What the hell! Had it completely lost its mind? Felix's expression changed. He was sure the

    Felix hadn't realized anything was wrong until he returned to Newtown that evening. He was totally stunned when he saw the scene before him. "What's going on here?" The massive living room was filled with beautiful women. Besides Eloise, Dahlia, and Karina, all his other fellow apprentices had somehow arrived. Including Nerissa, there were seven gorgeous women in total. Felix felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, and he felt nervous. After all, what man wouldn't feel uncomfortable with seven beautiful women giving him such suggestive looks? "Don't ask. It was all Aunt Cordelia who invited us here," Rosalie said with a mischievous smile before Cordelia stood up. "Alright, everyone, go get ready. Don't worry. Nerissa has already agreed, so I'll handle the rest of the arrangements." The women departed one by one, leaving behind a thoroughly confused Felix. "Mom, what are you trying to do?" Cordelia walked over and took Felix's hand. "You're not getting any younger, F

    Kingston's soul was covered in dense soul ties, and countless threads wove through his soul."I'm a Black Soul Scout, second to the White Soul Scout! I have many secrets up my sleeves. Do you really think you can get priceless information out of me, Felix? Stop your wishful thinking!" he sneered smugly."Maybe you think you're truly powerful, but these ties are all linked together! Just cutting one would crush my entire soul. In the end, you'll get nothing!"Felix had miscalculated. He didn't expect the Scarlet Lord to be so cunning."I'd advise you to let me go. Just because we're not confronting you head-on, doesn't mean we're afraid of you! There are reasons why we're not. But if you kill a Black Soul Scout like me, the Hall of Souls will definitely go to war with you!"As Kingston spoke, he felt like he had more and more control over the situation; like the tides were turning in his favor. "You've provoked the Ancient Sage, killing two of his Eight Guardians. Do you really t

    After some time had passed, Felix rode a rental bike to a parking spot near the rented house. After all, the show still needed to go on. At this point, his soul power had been fully restored.As for Xena, her soul must've improved as well. If he could successfully capture the Black Soul Scout, it would be like killing two birds with one stone! After paying off the bike and taking a few steps, Felix felt a dark energy coming toward him.The energy wasn't strong, but it was enough to make him trip. He didn't dodge or avoid it, just merely pretending that he didn't notice. When the dark energy reached him, his body felt unstable, falling straight to the ground."What the hell?" he muttered, getting up from the ground. He looked around but continued to walk forward helplessly.The Black Soul Scout was truly cautious. Even with three soul barriers, Felix was still being tested. Was it because of how he looked? Was this its final test?After entering the rental house, he turned on the t

    As Felix looked at the various swarms of clothing rushing into the store, he had no time to think and decide. In his "final attempt" to escape, he closed his eyes desperately, letting the clothes swarm him.Felix had decided to take a gamble. Orchard Square had never reported a murder, after all. The Black Soul Scout had set up multiple soul barriers, making it complicated. It was definitely not for killing.Otherwise, wouldn't it be better to have done it from the start, or killed them in secret? Why did they have to go to a mall where people gather?When Felix opened his eyes again, he knew he had won his bet. At this moment, he was definitely still in Orchard Square. He was sitting on a bench and the customers who walked in and out were extremely normal.He turned to look at the time and it had been an hour since he had entered Orchard Square. Strangely, it lined up perfectly with the time he had spent in the illusion. As he glanced around, he noticed a few people sitting on cha
