Chapter 1657Hearing that the base had found it out, Molly knitted her thin brows and asked, "Are you truly all right?"As a martial artist, Blackrose was undoubtedly an excellent fighter, but she was alone in this mission, and there were so many people in the base. Molly was afraid that she might have gotten hurt, but she didn't want people to worry about her, so she might conceal her condition.Knowing her worry, Blackrose shook her head gently and said, "Madam, I'm truly all right, but I didn't accomplish my mission this time. I failed to live up to the trust of the master."Molly deliberately put on a straight face and glared at Sean. "Blackrose took this risk for the sake of helping me. Although something unexpected happened in the process, she brought me all the ingredients, so you can't blame her."Sean chuckled and asked in reply, "When did I say I would blame her?"Molly touched her nose in embarrassment. "It's good you didn't."Sean then said to Blackrose, "Ward is not
Chapter 1658Sean told her what he was worried about, but Molly smiled and comforted him, "Don't worry. As long as I do this with care, I'll be fine."Although she said so, Sean was still worried. He moved his lips, hoping to say something, but gave up in the end.Knowing how eager she was to develop the bone-melting powder, he dropped the idea of stopping her.Seeing through his heart, Logan smiled at Molly, "Molly, you're now bearing a child. In case something happened, you'd better not do this in person. Let me and Edmund take care of everything.""But..."Molly wanted to argue, but Edmund interrupted, "You just stand by to give the two of us orders. We won't ruin your project."Knowing they cared about her condition and were helping her, she felt warmth in her heart. "Just listen to them." Sean took the opportunity to pull her to the side, keeping a certain distance from the laboratory bench. Molly was amused by his action, but then realized that he was caring about her,
Chapter 1659Professor Heist and Ward had been keeping an eye on this matter these days. They had almost turned the entire base upside down, but didn't find the red insect."Useless! You're all useless!"With Ward's furious shouting, an ashtray whizzed out of the office. One who failed to avoid it in time was hit on the head. With a thud, he fell to the ground, motionless, blood spreading from the back of his head. All those who saw it paled in fear, not daring to take a deep breath. "Carry him away."Keagan gave an order and went out of the office. Ward's face was distorted in fury, the blood vessels on his forehead were shaking, and his face was so dark as if he was a fierce ghost from hell. Seeing Keagan come in, he narrowed his eyes and asked, "How's the situation? Have you found them?"Keagan stopped and reported the truth, "Sir, we haven't found the traces of those from the Grandset so far, but we're still searching. I think there'll be good news soon.""Soon?" Wa
Chapter 1660When the ladder was brought over, Keagan was going to climb up."Wait!" Selon suddenly shouted to stop him.Everyone turned to look at Selon.But he said, "If you dismantle the pipe like this, the insect will be scared away."Ward asked, "What should I do then?"The insect had fled last time, and they could never let it escape this time, so Ward thought he should be careful. Selon turned to him and said seriously, "The best way is to lure it with Venomous Insects.""Lure it with Venomous Insects?"Ward and Heist exchanged eye contact, confused: How could he know that?Selon chuckled and explained calmly, "There're records in the ancient books of the Shepard family, and… it's common sense to me."When it came to this, he looked at Professor Heist.The latter nodded to agree. "It's really like this. I've also looked up a lot of information about the Venomous Insect Overlord. If we use Venomous Insects, it will come to us.""Why didn't you mention it earlier?" W
Chapter 1661Three days later, Selon got up in the morning, ready to stretch when someone hit the door. Then the door hit the wall with a loud bang.Before he could ask anything, he saw Professor Heist walk in. The professor said anxiously, "Doctor Shepard, go with us immediately."In fact, the moment the door opened, Selon had known what was going on.The drug fed to the Child Insect probably had worked. Now it must be listless like one dying, just as Molly had described. So he was calm, asking doubtfully, "What's wrong?""Just go with me. You'll know what's going on when we get there."Heist didn't tell him directly."Oh?" Selon smiled. "I can go with you, but does Mr. Lopez trust me? Without his permission, I can't leave this room."As he spoke, he walked to the side and sat down.Professor Heist was losing his cool. "No, it's not like what you think. It's that there's now an opportunity for you to redeem yourself."Then Selon put on an expression of being interested.
Chapter 1662"I need to take a look first. I haven't come across this either. Therefore, I can't make any promises."Selon's replies made sense. If Molly hadn't made the arrangements in advance, he wouldn't have known what to do.When Ward heard those words, it was obvious that he was dissatisfied. However, Selon was the only one who could save the Venomous Insect Overlord.Therefore, he didn't make things too difficult for Selon."Then take a look."Ward signaled for Selon to walk forward.Selon nodded slightly, walked forward and carefully observed the red beetle, which wasn't moving at all.He knew full well why it was in the state, but he still had to pretend that he was looking into the situation seriously."What have you been feeding it, Professor Heist?" Selon turned around and looked at Heist. The latter looked at Ward and said honestly, "I've been feeding it some Venomous Insects and medicinal herbs.""Herbs?" Selon furrowed his brows. "How can you feed the Venomou
Chapter 1663After the Venomous Insect Overlord ingested a rare Venomous Insect, it seemed much livelier, but still didn't fully recover."Dr. Shepard, you stay here and help me take care of the Venomous Insect Overlord." Ward was rarely this happy.Selon smiled. "No problem. It's an honor to do my part for the base.""It's good that you think so." Ward patted Selon's shoulder with satisfaction and then left with his men.Selon stood where he was and kept his eyes on Ward until he left. The smile on his face slowly dissipated. His handsome face gradually turned cold.He had successfully infiltrated the No.1 research laboratory. This signaled that the plan to destroy the base was closer to success.However, Ward didn't really fully trust him. He had still allocated men to keep an eye on Selon.Selon didn't really care. He would just feed and take care of the Venomous Insect Overlord every day.On the other side, Molly, Logan and Edmund had achieved great progress in the researc
Chapter 1664"The Martial Art Union?"After hearing those words, Molly couldn't help but feel alarmed.Jadon knew full well what she was worried about. He then quickly explained, "Don't worry, Molly. I came to the island via the Scott family, but I won't hurt you."After all, Jadon was Molly's tutor and he had left the Scott family for so many years. If it weren't for his son, Eaton, he probably wouldn't have looked for the Scott family's help.There was silence on the other end of the line. Jadon asked carefully, "Are you alright to meet up, Molly?"Molly hesitated for a while, but her heart still softened in the end."Mr. Scott, I can meet up with you, but I must tell Sean."When Jadon heard those words, he instantly breathed a sigh of relief. "That's fine. You can bring Sean with you.""Okay."After hanging up, Molly quickly headed upstairs.Sean was sitting in the living room. When he saw her coming up the stairs, his lips curved into a smile. Then he asked in a soft voi
