Chapter 1625 "Know the head of the Anderson family?" Keagan didn't believe his words, and snorted coldly, "In the Martial Art Union, any biased position is considered a betrayal!" Apparently, he still insisted that the Shepard family had betrayed the Martial Art Union. But Selon didn't panic. He pondered for a moment and chose to express his position. "I was determined to cure diseases and save lives, so I am quite ashamed of this behavior of the base." Before he finished his sentence, a man behind Keagan yelled angrily, "How bold!" Immediately afterward, the man raised the long leather whip in his hand and slammed it hard on the ground. The sound was very intimidating. It was indeed bold enough to say such a thing in front of them. Selon glanced at the whip, knowing very well in his heart that if it hit his body, his skin would be torn open. But he didn't have the slightest fear, and continued in a calm tone, "I'm just telling the truth. If I can, I don't want to b
Chapter 1626"Really? Who told you that one person can't make waves?"Apparently, Keagan didn't believe what Selon said.Selon didn't seem to mind and chuckled lightly, "My brother has been in his place. Due to some health issues since childhood and a lack of medical aptitude, he pursued academic research. When he is free, he often pays idle visits to the bookshops on the island."Keagan stared at him with a scowl, tapping his fingers on and off on the desk as if measuring if he was lying. "Mr. Pratt, if you still don't believe me, feel free to investigate. You will know if I lied to you,” Selon said calmly.Why did he dare to say so? Because he and Sean had expected this day and had prepared for it. Although Sean had changed back to his original appearance, he had someone pretending to be Vaughn Shepard. As Selon had said that Vaughn, who almost shuttled just between two places on the island, was easy to investigate.The man beside Keagan whispered something in his ear, ca
Chapter 1627At the same time, Alkaid had been feeling uneasy since Selon was locked up.Except that she returned once to report to Sean, she had been in the base the rest of the time. And she didn't even dare to sleep soundly, simply because she was afraid she might miss even a piece of news about Selon. But there had been no news. A few times, she almost couldn't help but go to explore the underground research lab. Fortunately, she had restrained herself. Otherwise, her master's plan would have been ruined.But in the afternoon, she suddenly heard the others on the research lab team discussing something. "Those who were arrested were all released.""Really? Are they all right?""Do you guys think the person can be all right? It is said that every one of them has been severely tortured. No exception.""God, that's not true, is it?""All of them have suffered a lot, after all!"Then everyone fell silent, making a tense atmosphere. Since they landed on the island, th
Chapter 1628Sean raised his head, his face rarely showing a hint of graveness.Molly's heart contracted, and she gradually stopped. "Was Alkaid truly taken away?" She asked again for a sure answer."Yes." Sean nodded and said, "I've just received the news.""How could this happen?” Molly knitted her thin brows. "Is it that something happened? Otherwise, how could Alkaid have suddenly also been taken away?"Selon's lockup was already something worrying. But Alkaid was now also taken away. Disasters piled up on one another!She had witnessed how arrogant the men from the base were, so she really didn't dare to imagine what merciless torture Selon and Alkaid had to face. "This is bad." Molly shook her head and said, "We must work out a way to rescue them as soon as possible."Sean went over, held her hand, and comforted her softly, "Calm down. This matter is not as serious as you think."Molly froze, not knowing what he meant."Let me explain it to you in detail." Sean t
Chapter 1629Then Ward asked, "Do you know why I brought you here?"Alkaid shook her head, seemingly confused, but in reality, she had already cursed him in her head.They arrested her for no reason, but were asking such a pointless question! Not wasting time, Ward said to her directly, "Keagan asked a few questions during his interrogation of your brother today, and your brother leaked some information unintentionally."At the mention of Selon, Keagan's heart skipped a beat.But as she listened to the rest, the clever girl generally guessed the man's intention."Do you know where the strongholds of those from the Grandset are and what plans they have?"Facing Ward's question, Alkaid said in a faked panic, "What are you talking about? I'm totally confused. I have no idea about the Grandset or its strongholds!"She widened her innocent eyes like a frightened deer, as if to cry. But Ward was a cold-blooded man, unmoved by her act. He raised his voice and scolded, "I advise yo
Chapter 1630Soon after Keagan finished speaking, two black-clad guards took Alkaid away.She was taken to an interrogation room-like place. On the walls of the room hung various torture devices, some of which still had plenty of bloodstains. After looking around them, Alkaid showed intense fear in her eyes and began to struggle. "Let me go! I'm going back… I really don't know anything!"As she shouted, her tears streamed down her face as if she was terrified. But the guards paid no attention to that. They swiftly bound her arms and secured her body to a pillar.She was completely like a prisoner from ancient times, waiting to be flogged!But this was a fact.At this point, Keagan came in with a long whip. The long whip seemed to have been forged from a special material, silver-white with dense barbs.If it hit someone, it would definitely hook up their skin and flesh.Alkaid instantly shook, fully embodying her fear and trepidation."Beth Shepard, I give you one mor
Chapter 1631"I understand ."Keagan took the order and walked towards Alkaid.In the underground dungeon half an hour later.Selon was sitting on the bed without a scratch. He had his eyes closed and was resting.He was recalling what was going on when he was taken for questioning.He thought that his answers were flawless and he didn't show any problems.However, somehow, he had a bad feeling about something.'What is Ward up to?' wondered Selon.Just as he was trying to work out the answer, the door to the room was opened by someone from the outside all of a sudden.Selon slowly opened his eyes and saw Keagan walking into the room with his men."We meet again, Mr. Shepard." Keagan then asked indifferently, "Have you thought about how to answer to Mr. Lopez?"Selon's voice was calm. "Mr. Pratt, I've already told you everything I know. What else do you want me to say? If you wanted to prove someone guilty, you would need evidence nowadays, right?"Keagan snorted. "Mr. She
Chapter 1632When Selon heard those words, he slowly raised his head and looked at Keagan.His eyes began to turn red and his gaze began to turn sharp.For the first time in Selon's life, he was about to lose his mind due to the anger within him.However, at the most crucial moment, he still managed to control his emotions.Alkaid wasn't the real Beth. Even if she was badly hurt, she still wouldn't reveal any information.Keagan was just trying to trick him.Selon knew that he couldn't lose control.With that thought in mind, Selon took a deep breath and said coldly, "I have nothing to tell. I am not guilty! Even if you kill my sister today, I still have nothing to tell you. If you want my life, then just take it. I'm a member of the Shepard family, I'm just surviving at the moment anyway. It's no big deal if I die anyway."With that said, he picked up the photos which were scattered all over the place gently.Keagan saw the state that Selon was in and frowned.It was obviou
