All Chapters of Master of Life and Death: Chapter 531 - Chapter 540

The Togar International Conference Center was one of Daneast's landmarks. It was built to serve multiple functions, including event spaces for conferences and exhibitions, theaters, and other commercial facilities.James had gone missing after attending a science conference held at the building yesterday. The four Shadow Aegis operatives who'd been protecting him in secret had gone missing as well.Cassian contacted Satine. After obtaining the floor plan of the Togar International Conference Center from her, he quietly infiltrated the building.The building had tight security with cameras everywhere. Over a dozen security guards patrolled every floor as well.It was almost dawn. One would think that these security guards would be pretty tired since it was nearing the end of their shift, but they were unusually alert. They were also very thorough as they checked every corner of the building.Cassian couldn't help but grumble, "Just how much are you getting paid anyway? Why are you

Cassian's eyes widened when he spotted a preserved corpse.Through the window, he could clearly see a massive glass dome in the room, and inside it was a preserved corpse.It was a woman's body. She was propped upright, her skin shriveled and as black as coal. Her eyes bulged out in an unnatural way, and her tangled hair draped messily over her shoulders. She looked terrifying.For a doctor like Cassian, corpses were nothing new to him. However, this particular preserved corpse was far more horrifying than any corpse he'd ever seen—mainly because it wasn't a complete body.The woman's arms were missing, and so were her breasts. Her ears and nose were gone as well, which made her look like a monster.Sweat began dripping down Cassian's back.He steadied himself and continued to observe the preserved corpse a little longer. He noticed that her eyes seemed to have frozen in a state of terror. It didn't take long for him to realize that the woman had been alive when her body parts ha

When Cassian opened the first refrigerated storage units, he was greeted with a corpse. That was no surprise to him. These refrigerated storage units were no different from the ones at the hospitals, which were also used to store the bodies of deceased patients.Besides, considering all the preserved corpses he'd seen earlier, it wasn't strange to find other corpses as well.The body was sealed in a black plastic bag."It won't be James inside, right?"Cassian was a little nervous. It'd be a shame for a brilliant scientist like James to die at such a young age. He slowly unzipped the bag, revealing the face of the corpse.It was a man who seemed to be about 30 years old. From his features, it was hard to discern whether he was a Charmyan or a Daneastian, but at the very least, he was certainly not James.Exhaling in relief, Cassian paid that corpse no mind and opened up the second refrigerated storage unit.Inside was another corpse, sealed in a black plastic bag. Again, it was

The middle-aged man was so scared that he pissed himself. Before Julie could even translate Cassian's words, he started babbling away.Two minutes later, Julie said, "He said he did see the man in the photo before. The man delivered four bodies to him yesterday evening.""Ask him if it was those four bodies," Cassian said before pointing at the four bodies on the surgical table.Julie had been so focused on talking to Cassian that she hadn't noticed the bodies just now. When she glanced over at the table, her face went pale."Hurry up and ask him," Cassian pressed.Calming herself down, Julie spoke to the man in Daneastish before informing Cassian, "Yes. It was those four bodies."Cassian frowned.The intelligence analysts at Shadow Aegis had concluded that James had either been abducted or detained, so how did he deliver these four bodies to this man?"Help me ask another question, Julie," he said. "Ask him if the man in the photo was alone when he brought the bodies over, or

Cassian's eyes went wide. If James really was a traitor, then things had just gone from bad to catastrophic.James was involved in nuclear research, and he knew everything about Charmya's nuclear weapons. If he ended up betraying the country, it would spell disaster for them.But considering how sensitive his position was, the military would've certainly run the most thorough of checks before letting him join the research institute. Not only would they have checked every detail of his background, but they would even investigate his entire ancestry.If there'd been something suspicious about him, surely they would've unearthed it long ago. Could it be that Albert was lying to him again?Cassian slammed his foot down onto Albert's hand, making Albert scream in pain.Expression hostile, Cassian growled, "Even now, you're still lying to me. I guess you won't stop until it's too late.""I'm not lying! I swear that everything I've said is true!" Albert exclaimed before proceeding to sa
