He recalled that she was in the bathtub when he first saw her. Although a prisoner of the Olympus Tribe, she had probably received decent treatment over there. He still remembered her surpassingly beautiful face. Even he, used to seeing beauties, was bedazzled by how gorgeous she was for a good half minute.She was a stunner in an absolutely unparalleled manner.However, her hair was currently messy, her skin was dull, her lips were chapped, and the clothes on her body—strips of cloth that barely covered her that had long been disregarded as clothes.Her current look and her original image were poles apart.“Sion Rowan... why are you in this state?” Alex spoke at last.“I’m going to kill you!” Sion screamed hysterically, looking like she was about to go crazy. Although she knew she was no match for Alex, she still rushed up to him like a mad dog, attacking him with her bare hands and feet. She even bit him.“Hey—Sion Rowan, calm down! Calm… down...” grunted Alex as he tried to sh
William Rockefeller, Soul Planting, Wasteland...The series of phrases made Alex's heart skip a beat.When Alex matched the three phrases, he felt an intense sensation.‘That old geezer wasn’t talking about my dad, was he?‘Then, is the one detained in the Ghost Dragon Suppressing Prison...’At that moment, Alex was clenching his fists.He initially intended to leave this place, but he suddenly heard such shocking words. In any case, he had to figure it out. What if Nolan Rockefeller really was his grandfather?‘That old geezer’s divine sense is too terrifying, so... I have to be stealthier.’For the sake of hearing the people’s conversation clearly, Alex used the Earth Escape Technique to cautiously sneak in. He stopped at about half a mile from the location.Once again, he hid inside the Cleansing Vase once again.This magical treasure, the Cleansing Vase, was truly amazing. When hiding inside, it enabled him to see and hear the situation outside without getting affected in
Before Julian left, he even looked at the huge crater he had just scorched and left after confirming no aura fluctuating inside.Alex, who was hiding underground, didn’t go immediately.As expected, after more than half an hour, that old man returned and rummaged around in the snow valley. After confirming that nothing had been found, he frowned and muttered to himself, “Strange. Could my senses have gone wrong? But someone really killed those demon beasts...”Since Julian had failed to find anyone, he left, going far away.He was convinced that no one could open the Ghost Dragon Suppressing Prison. Even if someone were to have found Nolan, nothing could be done.***This time, after another half an hour, Alex cautiously walked out of the Cleansing Vase.He silently approached the depths of the snow valley.Finally, he saw the Ghost Dragon Suppressing Prison suppressing the old man in a piercingly cold pool of water in the depths of snow valley.Alex was anxious when saw the o
Gulp…As Alex was forced into the frosty pool by Nolan, he immediately felt his soul freeze.What made it even more unbearable was the water’s bone-chilling cold entering his body. With that, the icy force penetrated his whole body through his veins, turning into a fiery hot attack.“Motherf*cker!”“Stop it, stop, I really am… William’s son…”Alex would’ve never thought that he’d be caught into this Ghost Dragon Suppressing Prison when he’d come to save his friends.“Haha-haha…” Nolan let out a carefree laugh. “You’re William’s son? Do you think that I’ve gone insane being stuck here? You Fourcade’s really are cunning. To think that you’d try such a foolish trick!”“I’ve said it once, and I’ll say it again. You Fourcade’s won’t ever get your hands on the Holy Book because you’re unworthy of it! Even if the Rockefeller’s die out, we still won’t hand over the Holy Book! How dare you impersonate my grandson? Die!”He roared, his voice shaking the surroundings. Alex had become No
“Is this worth it, just for the Holy Book?”Alex was astounded, but at the same time, pitied the old man trapped up there, so he didn’t blame him. He was locked up here and faced inhumane torture every moment. It felt like his body and soul were being cut up nonstop, an extremely barbaric action.If Alex had been the one facing this, he too would’ve gone crazy. Thus, he was unable to believe that his grandson would come here either.Alex’s eyes went cold as he looked at the nine dragon heads.It was impossible to use force.Once he attacked forcefully, it would cause a chain reaction and the vicious souls of the Ghost Dragons floating above would crash down and strike at full power. Even if he was invincible, he probably couldn’t beat them. “Sword heart!” Alex’s glabella glowed as runes circulated. Half a sword heart slowly emerged.The sword heart had been given to him by the Red Empress at Atlantis and was the soul of Seventy-two Heavenly Immortal-slaying Formation.With the
“Erm, Neela, aren’t you meditating? Why did you come out?”Alex was stunned for a while. “Quickly, go back into my body,” he anxiously suggested. “It’s very dangerous here. Your wounds haven’t healed, so don’t let the frost hurt you.”Neela seemed to have not heard Alex’s warning as she stared straight at the nine Ghost Dragons before her with quivering eyes.“B… Belindo, is it you?”Alex was startled by Neela’s reaction, looking at the dragons in disbelief. ‘Could Neela know one of them?’To keep Neela safe from the pool’s freezing temperatures, Alex quickly took the disc from the sword heart and conjured up dozens of powerful sword shadows, forming a protective barrier to shield her.Neela cried out. “Belindo, Belindo, come on! Speak! I know it’s you. Why are you… why have you become like this? Tell me, tell me…”Her voice shook from nervousness and utter disbelief.Alex said, “Neela, there’s no use shouting. These nine dragons were deliberately killed cruelly and trapped her
“Sir, how is she?” Neela asked nervously. She looked at one of the silent dragons, her face full of worry. ‘The dragon she was looking at must be Belindo.’ Alex didn’t speak but observed silently.He realized that the fifty percent success rate he’d estimated was still a little too optimistic. Among the nine dragons, four didn’t react to the spell and still remained the same as before; three others looked confused, and that counted as… somewhat a success—the Ultimate Book of Medicine had cleansed their souls but had not awakened their memories. Only the last two silent dragons were slowly regaining their memories with the help of Zharvakko’s power.Luckily, Belindo was one of the two.“Belindo, Belindo......” Neela whispered softly, calling her name.Finally, Belindo opened her eyes and started to move. She saw Neela and called out, “Sis…” hoarsely.“Belindo!!” Neela cried out loud, about to rush forward.However, she was held back by Alex. “Neela, hold on. We’re still in t
Alex rushed upwards swiftly and soon came close to Nolan, who was still in the prison formation.Now, without the suppression from the Ghost Dragons, along with the damage Alex dealt with the formation core at the bottom of the pool, the restrictions upon the old man lessened considerably… Thus, he’d become much stronger and had even placed the thick chains across the surface of the pool to stop Alex from escaping. “D*mn it! This really is troublesome!”Alex stopped about a hundred meters away and said telepathically. “I’m sincerely not on the same side with the Fourcade’s. You should’ve sensed it by now, right? I’ve broken down half of the prison, and I can free you from the other half as long as you cooperate with me…”“Hmph, in this whole world, only someone from the Fourcade family would be able to crack open this place. You dismembered the formation so easily. Did you think I’d be blind enough to believe that you’re not a Fourcade?” Nolan put on a firm expression, complet
