Chapter 48

作者: Marina Vittori
Fletcher threw a glance at Dustin and went out with his apprentices.

“You should go out too.” Natasha gestured for him to exit the room.

Dustin nodded and went out.

They had a tacit understanding with each other, or in other words, they had ulterior motives.

“So, you’re Natasha’s personal bodyguard? You don’t look like much!” The twins sized Dustin up like he was their prey.

“Is that so? You’ll find out soon.” Dustin went down the stairs without another word.

“Liam and Noah, follow him and get rid of him,” Fetcher ordered coldly.

In his opinion, he didn’t need to deal with an insignificant person like Dustin. His two apprentices could easily finish him off.

“No problem!” Liam and Noah grinned and followed him quietly.

Once Dustin went downstairs, he strolled through the garden and entered the underground parking lot. The company had just launched, and the parking lot was still closed, so it was quiet and empty.

“Boy! You really know how to dig your own grave!”

  • An Understated Dominance   Chapter 2601

    "Your Highness, what should we do now?" Milton asked anxiously."How should I know? I'm just as lost as you are." Tristan's face was full of despair. He continued, "Dr. Strum and Dr. Carmel are dead. The outbreak is already out of control, and now there's some kind of poisonous mist that destroys everything it touches. How am I supposed to deal with this? My head feels like it's about to explode.""Perhaps we should retreat while we still can," Milton urged. "If that poisonous mist continues its advance, this city is doomed. Staying here would only put your life in danger.""Retreat? Where should I go? Once Harbortown is gone, so is my future." Tristan looked utterly defeated.Everyone knew containing the outbreak was a test from Valon. If Tristan succeeded, he'd secure the right to inherit the throne, but failure would end his chances for good. He'd fought too hard and come too far to let the crown slip away now."As long as you're alive, Your Highness, there's still a chance t

    Lauren's death came without warning. It was so sudden that Dustin barely had time to process what happened. Staring at her shattered skull and her body sprawled in blood, his smile faded as he frowned.No one had attacked her, and it wasn't suicide either. Her head exploded because someone had planted a cursed insect in her brain.This insect lay dormant inside her head. It caused no harm to its host under normal circumstances. However, when the host planned to betray the Skull Covenant, the insect would immediately awaken and self-destruct. The explosion occurred from within and was impossible to prevent.If Dustin had examined Lauren thoroughly, he would've spotted it. With his current skills, eliminating such an insect would have been easy.Even Lauren herself hadn't known that she had been implanted with the cursed insect. If she had known, she wouldn't have endured such prolonged torture. Otherwise, she would have chosen to trigger the explosion earlier.Grace approached

    "You… What did you do to me?" Lauren demanded.She struggled frantically but found her entire body locked in place, and she couldn't move a muscle. For someone who was halfway to becoming a grandmaster, this kind of helplessness was foreign to her. It felt like being pinned beneath something enormous and unmovable."Relax. I'm not going to kill you," Dustin said with a faint smile.He moved closer until he stood directly in front of her. "I'm going to ask you two questions. Answer honestly, and I'll let you go. Lie to me, and you'll regret everything you did today.""Hmph! Kill me if you want. You think I'm scared of some nobody like you?" Lauren tried to sound fearless, as though she was eager to die.In her eyes, death wasn't an end but a liberation and a chance to return to Skull Lord's side."Like I said, I won't kill you. But I will give you a taste of suffering," Dustin said. With a flick of his finger, he sent a silver needle into her body.The instant it pierced her skin

    "Ms. Linsor, look out!" Sadie shouted.She had been watching Lauren's every move. The moment the iron chains binding Lauren snapped and scarlet mist poured from her body, Sadie immediately jumped in front of Grace to shield her.However, the mist was pervasive. It engulfed several people in the room within seconds before expanding outward in all directions at breakneck speed.The scarlet mist was laced with deadly poison. Wherever it touched, flowers wilted and the ground turned black, as if it were consuming everything in its path.Lauren laughed maniacally. "Every last one of you deserves to die. This world is steeped in corruption, and God has turned his back on us. Only our Skull Lord will outlast it all. "I shall cleanse your sins with his blood and offer your lives as a sacrifice. The Skull Covenant shall rise, and the Skull Lord shall reign eternally."Her crazed proclamations echoed through the swirling scarlet mist.As more mist poured out from her body, her figure b

    At Sadie's signal, two soldiers stepped forward to carry out her orders."W-Wait…" Lauren stammered.She quickly raised her hands and put on a placating smile. "Let's talk this through like civilized people. No need to get physical.""What? Now you want to talk?" Sadie scoffed. "Done with your pretense?""I was just messing around earlier. Don't take it personally. Ask me anything, and I'll tell you everything I know." Lauren immediately chose to give in."Don't even think about playing games with me," Sadie warned. "If you lie to me, I swear you'll regret it.""Relax. I won't lie," Lauren said with an ingratiating smile. "I'm as straight as an arrow."Sadie frowned slightly but didn't press further. Something about Lauren's behavior didn't sit right with her. One moment she was acting clueless, the next she was oddly cooperative. It was hard to tell what she was up to."Alright then. Tell me. Do you know Callan Banks?" Grace asked coolly."Do I know him? Of course, I do." Lau

    Grace's messengers quickly delivered the plague prevention prescription to Tristan, Matthias, and Nathaniel, though each reacted quite differently.Tristan was naturally overjoyed. He immediately consulted with Icarus and Lenora to review the prescription. When both praised its effectiveness, he put it into action without delay.His team began preparing the tonic and distributing it to patients. While it wasn't a complete cure, it helped alleviate the symptoms and kept conditions from worsening. In a race against time, even this level of relief was a tremendous help in his eyes.…Matthias, on the other hand, couldn't tell whether the prescription was genuine or not when he first received it. None of the people around him could make sense of it, either.Given the circumstances, he decided to give it a shot. To his surprise, the prescription proved remarkably effective. He quickly ordered it to be distributed across the city and arranged large-scale purchases of the necessary medic
