“That’s not all. It was also that foreigner who brought the venomous snake. He colluded with Zenith Mangold and framed that handsome dude, wanting to bed his two female companions!”“F*ck, no, I can’t stand it anymore!”After learning the truth, the group of people was filled with righteous indignation and found Zenith and Allen, who were being escorted by Marcus’ subordinates. Without hesitation, they started to beat and kick Zenith and Allen.“You piece of sh*t, you drugged us, didn’t you?”“You damned b*stard. How dare you drug me? Are you sick of living?”“Don’t hit their heads or they’ll die easily. Get their arms and mouths. Kick their *sses and legs!”“Don’t beat them to death. Just beat them half to death!”“Stop it (take this), stop it (take this), you’ll kill them!”The crowd was stirred up and vented their anger.In just a few minutes, the two men were already bruised and battered, gasping for breath. They could not even scream in pain. They could only instinctively
Marcus sweat nervously. He said, “Ms. Crestfall, you really don’t have to. I am just doing my job.” Regardless of what Marcus said, Luna dragged Andrius over and urged him, “Hurry up and thank the mayor! He helped you solve the problem and you don’t even want to thank him?” Her lecturing tone frightened Marcus. “Thank you.” Andrius was forced to say thank you since the woman had dragged him up to Marcus. Marcus was overwhelmed but dared not reveal it on his face. “I-it’s nothing,” He stammered due to nervousness. Then, he added, “I am just doing what a mayor should do. Now then, I should really be going.” Marcus called his men back before he hopped into the car and left. After Marcus’ car left, Luna turned to Andrius, looking upset. She said, “Andrius Moonshade! You! Where are your manners? Is this how you behave when the mayor helps you? He came all the way here, and you don’t even want to thank him. I have no words…” Luna really wanted to lecture Andrius more, but the
“Hmph!” Andrius grunted and performed a roundhouse kick. Cyclops was on the defensive side and did not expect Andrius to suddenly change his blows into a kick. The sudden shift forced him to take the kick’s full force. Bang! The powerful kick sent him sliding backward. He slid for seven to eight steps before he regained his balance. While Cyclops was sliding back, Andrius landed his feet on a tree by the side and launched himself forward, throwing a punch at the invader. The power of the punch was unmatched. It caught Cyclops off guard and managed to land on his chest. The overwhelming power sent Cyclops flying away like a ragdoll. Splat! A bloody arch was drawn in the air, adding a sense of horror to the dark night. “Any idea how you’d like to die yet?” Andrius walked over to Cyclops calmly. “Die?” Cyclops wiped the blood off his lips and glared at Andrius. He grinned and said, “Wolf King, O’ Wolf King. You really think I came here alone?” Following his words,
If this continued, all the assassins would die in less than three minutes and Cyclops would no longer have the chance to ambush Andrius. With that, he glared at Andrius before he left the valley silently. Andrius was still busy dealing with the rest of the assassins and did not have time for Cyclops. When he was done, Cyclops was already gone. The remaining assassins noticed Cyclops’ absence as well. They no longer wanted to fight the Grim Reaper that was Andrius, so they all tried to escape. However, Andrius, with his extreme speed, swiftly stopped and immobilized all of them. He squatted down before one of the surviving assassins and bellowed, “Tell me, Cyclops is the enemy of the country with the blood of my people on his hand. He’s killed many good men of the country, yet you all are working for him. Why?” Andrius was truly infuriated. He could tolerate his own people trying to take his life but not when his own people helped foreign invaders to destroy him. “Hmph!” T
On the next day, Andrius received Noir’s call early in the morning. “Andy, the Second War God sent the assassins to kill you and stop you from attending the Grand Medicinal Competition.” The Second War God? A cold glint flashed in Andrius’ eyes. The Second War God would never give such an order on his own, even if he had the nerve to, so the person who made him give that order must be the Emperor, Registus. Why would the Emperor want Andrius to stay away from the competition? Was the Emperor afraid of something? Was the Emperor afraid that Andrius might find out about the truth? Andrius highly suspected that the skeleton that was listed as the first prize of the Grand Medicinal Competition contained answers to many unanswered questions. “It seems like we must win the first prize this time.” With that, Andrius headed to Phoenix Manor, where the East River State Medical Society called their headquarters for now. Maybe the people there had a clue about the secrets of t
“So…” Angus continued, “Before the Kleins died, they actually tattooed a strange map fragment on each of their family member’s bodies. If you can piece all the fragments together, you might be able to get a clue to locate that child.” It was no wonder that many people were after that body. Andrius’ expression turned bitter. An instant realization struck him and allowed him to connect more dots. Old Hagstorm must have known about this as well because he was the one who had saved Andrius back then. The man must have heard of the rumor as well and was worried that his identity would be exposed. Therefore, when the Emperor, Registus, used the body as bait to lure out the killer, Old Hagstorm wanted to verify it himself but got careless in the process, hence the Emperor hunted him down. That was how it happened. Angus then shook his head. “But the Society has studied the body over and over again and did research on it with all possible methods. Alas, no one was able to find any
Half an hour later, the celebratory dinner started. All the dignitaries and influential people of Sumeria were invited. As the star of the evening, Luna was in the spotlight, surrounded by all the dignitaries. “Ms. Crestfall, congratulations!” “Ms. Crestfall, from today onwards, New Moon Corporation will be the pillar of the medical field in Sumeria. Please look after all of us.” “Ms. Crestfall, I’m Liam Hemsworth, the CEO of Sky Pharmaceuticals. This is my name card. I look forward to working with you in the medical field.” The dignitaries were enthusiastic about meeting her. All of them tried to flatter her and gain her attention, which overwhelmed her. Halle tried to share the burden, but the dignitaries did not care about her and continued swarming toward Luna. Therefore, Halle gave up and let her friend drown. From time to time, however, she glanced at Andrius in the corner. Andrius had been thinking about the Grand Medicinal Competition ever since he came back f
Lyra’s eyes fluttered. “Grandpa, this acupuncture technique, the Thirteen Ghost Gates, is it really that powerful?” “Of course, it’s powerful!” Dr. Artemis explained with a serious look, “The Thirteen Ghost Gates is a legendary acupuncture technique. As long as the patient is still alive, the technique can bring the patient back from passing through the gates to hell. This technique is sought after by almost all the doctors in Florence.” Dr. Artemis then bowed at Andrius solemnly. “Young man, thank you!” Andrius helped the man up. “Dr. Artemis, you really don’t need to. I have been searching for someone to pass the Thirteen Ghost Gates down to, and your skills are widely recognized in Sumeria. I believe you can put it to good use and save more people.” Dr. Artemis was grateful. “Young man, don’t worry. I will practice hard and master this skill as soon as possible. Then, I can help our people and free them from sickness.” Andrius nodded. He then pointed at the stage and said,
