As Victoria's Audi A7 drove away, his thoughts were still a jumble. On the way, although Victoria wanted to speak to Ethan, she didn't dare interrupt his contemplation. As they reached a quiet street about fifteen or sixteen miles from the city center, a motorcycle suddenly emerged from a nearby alley. The rider, dressed in black with their face concealed, held a handgun and stared intently at the rear seat of the Audi A7, exuding a palpable hatred. At that moment, Ethan's mind sounded an alarm. However, his reaction, no matter how fast, could not outpace the gunshot: “Watch out!" As Ethan's warning left his lips, the gunshot rang out simultaneously. The loud noise in the night was enough to cause significant disturbance, but unfortunately, the road was deserted, and everything happened too quickly. Waiting for Ethan to react, Victoria's driver had already swerved to the other side of the road. In the opposite direction, there was a speeding truck coming their way. In that instant,
“Maybe we should call an ambulance to take you to the hospital?” Victoria finally advised, unable to bear the sight of Ethan’s battered condition. But Ethan was reluctant to go to the hospital. After merging with the system, he felt there were many undiscovered functions. Like the danger warning system, he experienced that day, which was significantly more advanced than before. Moreover, he felt a mysterious power within his body that he could not explain. For this reason, he desperately needed time to study it, not to be stuck in a hospital treating his injuries. “No need. These are just a few scratches. All I need is some antiseptic ointment to disinfect them.” Ethan shook his head, declining Victoria’s suggestion. Although she was still apprehensive, she knew Ethan’s stubborn character. He appeared approachable on the surface, but in reality, he was headstrong and uncompromising. Otherwise, he would not have hated his father for his mother’s situation and refused to see him unt
Immediately after, the phone rang again. Without any hesitation, Ethan swiped the screen aside and answered the call. "Who are you? What do you want?" Hearing Ethan's angry voice, the indistinguishable male or female voice on the other end of the phone slowly replied. "Mr. Alexander, I believe you've received our message just now. Our purpose isn't the important issue at the moment. Currently, your wife is in our custody. If you want her to survive and return to you, you must be at the abandoned plot of land in District 3 within the next fifteen minutes. Our people will be waiting for you there. If you comply with their demands, your wife will be safe." After finishing speaking, the person hung up the phone. "Hello, hello!" No matter how much Ethan yelled, no one answered. Putting down the phone, Ethan's heart was in chaos. For him, Melanie was not only his life partner but also the person who pulled him out of the darkest days of his life. At this moment, knowing that someone w
Ethan frowned upon hearing this but eventually sighed and said, "Fine, just tell me your conditions immediately, and I'll fulfill all your demands!"Hearing Ethan agree, the man in black smiled contentedly. However, his expression suddenly changed, and he angrily yelled, "Mr. Alexander, what's the meaning of this? Are you trying to find your wife's dead body yourself?"At this moment, the reaction of the man in black was completely beyond Ethan's expectations. He was utterly astonished and blurted out, "What do you mean by that?" However, Ethan quickly learned the answer.As soon as his words left his mouth, gunshots began to ring out from outside. The gunfire grew closer and closer, and it seemed to be targeting the three-story house where Ethan was standing.Bang! Bang! Bang!"Damn it, what on earth is happening?" Ethan couldn't understand what was happening outside. It was obvious that he was negotiating with the man in black; how could there be gunfire out?Moreover, it seemed as
"Young Master!"As the vehicle door opened, a man in a black suit greeted Ethan. At this point, besides Dr. Suri, it seemed the others had been moved elsewhere. Even the bodies outside the three-story building had vanished from sight. Naturally, Ethan didn't ask about these matters but instead fixed his gaze on the man in the black suit, asking:"Do you remember I once asked you to help me deal with someone?"Hearing Ethan mention this, the man's expression changed slightly but quickly returned to normal. He nodded and replied, "Yes, I remember, Young Master.""Good, then tonight, help me finish him off. From now on, I don't want him to exist in this world anymore!"Upon hearing this, not only was the man in the black suit taken aback, but Dr. Suri also looked over in surprise."So, can you do it?"Seeing Ethan's expression colder, the man shuddered and hastily replied, "Rest assured, Young Master, I'll handle it!""Good, then I won't bother you any longer. Have the driver take my wif
Upon hearing the girl's words, Ethan's face immediately darkened. He angrily raised his hand and knocked on her head before speaking seriously."What are you talking about? Consider this money as my sponsorship for your mother's surgery. When you start working and have money in the future, you can pay me back slowly!""But... but...""No buts. Now, do you want your mother to get better or not?""Of course I do!""Then that's settled!"Ethan was very decisive. Once he decided to help the girl's mother with her surgery, he took out his phone, intending to call someone.However, just then, his phone suddenly rang, vibrating in his hand. And the number displayed was precisely the one he was about to call. Ethan's expression turned highly odd for a moment.The girl beside him thought he changed his mind and anxiously asked, "What's wrong?"Ethan immediately regained his composure, shook his head, and smiled. "Nothing's wrong."After speaking, Ethan swiped the screen to answer the call."Dr
As far as Ethan knew, his mother had gone missing over half a year ago. It was also around the time the Artificial Superintelligence research project entered its final stages of completion. However, Ethan couldn't determine these things. Until now, everything he knew about his mother's organization came from the Artificial Superintelligence system in his head, and he had only heard about it from Gaius and Dr. Suri."Excuse me, and your food has arrived. May I come in to serve you?"As the two sat silently facing each other in the room, a sudden sound came from the outside, that of a server. Ethan glanced briefly at Dr. Suri, then directed his gaze towards the door and responded,"Come in!"After a moment, the restaurant's waitress entered, placing the food neatly on the table. Seeing that the two had no further requests, she quickly left.Waiting for the restaurant staff to leave, Ethan finally continued the conversation."Alright, the food has been served, and it's past noon. We shou
Seeing the aggressive attitude of the young man, Ethan didn't react. He walked straight up to Selena and observed her for a moment. Then, the corner of his mouth curled up, revealing a wicked grin."After so many years apart, I never thought you'd grow up so much!"Upon recognizing Ethan's intrusive gaze sweeping over her body, Selena's youthful face couldn't help but display a blush of embarrassment.Especially after catching his gaze lingering on certain parts of her body, she became even more ashamed and spoke up."Ethan, you dare to tease me!"Watching the actions and words of the two at this moment, it was impossible not to misunderstand their relationship. Moreover, at this moment, Tarub, who had feelings for Selena, didn't even know the true nature of their relationship. For a moment, it felt as if steam was rising from his head.How dare this shameless couple flirts in front of him?"Damn it, who the hell are you? What's your relationship with her?"Tarub's heart was filled wi
“Destroy,” Ethan roared, swinging the Ancestor Blade powerfully. Countless beams of light converged on the sharp blade, launching a mighty attack against the skull.The Ivory Sage, not to be outdone, merged with the skull, which then seemed to gain intelligence. Its eyes glowed a ferocious red, and its enormous mouth seemed ready to swallow Ethan whole.The night and light, good and evil clashed, as if bringing the apocalypse.Black and white light intersected, splitting Mist Isle and the sea.The endless sea began to boil, everything disintegrating in moments.Then, under the white light, the terrible power exploded outward, with Ethan and the Ivory Sage standing at the center of it.“Retreat, quickly retreat,” Ricky and Green Dragon, astonished, commanded their armies to pull back.But they were too slow compared to the terrifying power.With a loud crash, dozens of warships were lifted tens of meters high, rocking violently.“Something’s wrong, protect the warships,” Green Dragon i
Whoosh!A terrifying roar echoed throughout heaven and earth. Under the majestic aura, a golden dragon flew towards the skull phantom after Ethan's strike.The next moment, a collision that shook heaven and earth occurred.Evil and righteousness, the skull and the golden dragon collided. The sky was enveloped in a bright light."Retreat, quickly retreat," they shouted in horror, leading their people to rapidly fall back.The members of the Ivory Guild also began to flee.Under that power, a moment's inattention could lead to being swallowed up.Even standing at a distance, they couldn't help but worry.The sea boiled, with waves hundreds of meters high surging and crashing down, the momentum reaching the skies, the earth seeming to tremble."Mr. Alexander," Hugo and Lily exclaimed in shock.Even Green Dragon and Christian frowned. The power displayed was beyond their imagination. At this point, it was not easy to determine who would win or lose.After ten minutes, the huge waves fina
After the Guild Master, whether they were Emperors, Kings, or Judge Law Enforcers, all knelt in succession."We welcome the Honored Ivory."The Honored Ivory?Behind Ethan, Green Dragon, Christian, Lily, and Hugo all frowned. No wonder the Ivory Guild was so arrogant. It turns out they had a master."The Honored Ivory, so it's real," Ricky muttered, his words tinged with caution: "Not bad, no wonder the Ivory Guild has existed for so long."In front, Ethan narrowed his eyes, saying nothing as if he wasn't surprised, even appearing somewhat expectant.Was the Honored Ivory the person he was looking for?Unnoticed by anyone, the sky grew cloudy, the drizzle turned heavy, giving a cold feeling like winter in summer.Moments later, a water spout shot up from below Mist Isle, quickly reaching hundreds of meters high.Observing closely, one could see a person standing on that spout, clad in a black cloak with a skull pattern, appearing majestic.Under that black cloak was a mask, hiding the
"Hmph, if you seek death, I'll oblige," Timothy grunted and moved to attack Ricky first.The battle ensued, a formidable power surging through the space."Christian, it's time to settle our scores," Solomon's three Judges from the Ivory Guild stepped forward, their faces filled with rage, seeking revenge on Christian."You think you're worthy? All three of you come at once," Christian said coldly."Christian, today you must die."The three Judges grimaced, their cold laughter intensifying as they lunged at Christian."Three against one, where's your honor? Green Dragon will join the fun," Green Dragon laughed and immediately stood beside Christian.The three Judges were the strongest under the Grand Mage, each at the tenth level. Christian alone might be at a disadvantage."Alright, let's see who kills more," Christian's fighting spirit surged as he licked his lips.Green Dragon wouldn't be outdone. Together, the five of them surrounded each other, their immense power enveloping the i
Christian frowned but remained calm. Just an octopus attempting to confront Mr. Alexander was indeed naive.Sure enough, moments later, the black slime suddenly changed to yellow, and the tentacles seemed to be put through a meat grinder, turning into hundreds of pieces. Blood and flesh splattered, filling the sea with a pungent smell of blood.The octopus howled in rage, burying its head in the water. It wasn't dead; it was trying to escape.But Ethan wouldn't let it get away so easily. His eyes cold, he raised the Ancestor Blade high and slashed towards the octopus.The vast sea seemed to split in two under the power of his sword, even the water parting. The octopus barely had time to escape before it was cut in half.A white light emitted from the octopus's body and then disappeared. Even Christian was amazed by the power within that light."Sir, this…" Christian started to say but his implication was clear. This octopus was indeed artificially created, and if there were a hundred
Seeing the armies before him, Ethan was deeply moved. Once, he was just an ordinary soldier, who had gone through tough wars to reach this day. Seeing his brothers, he saw himself in those glorious years. "Officers and soldiers, listen to my command." "Yes." After Ethan's shout, hundreds of thousands of soldiers echoed in unison. Whether it was Green Dragon, Lily, or Hugo, everyone appeared solemn, awaiting orders. "Ethan signaled for the army to board the warships, determined to eliminate the Ivory Guild today. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers, invigorated, bravely embarked on the warships. The Ivory Guild's stronghold was five hundred meters from the Auroria border, reachable only by warship. It was imaginable that today marked a battle of life and death. How many of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers would survive and return was uncertain. Soon, hundreds of warships plunged into the vast sea, heading towards the Ivory Guild's lair. "Sir, according to intelligence, the
The Elders of the Emperor Clan, who had lived for over a hundred years and possessed extraordinary strength, regretted that even facing Ethan, they could only do so much. "If he wasn't arrogant, he wouldn't be Ethan," the head of the Lee family sighed. "Fourth Elder, Fifth Elder, please visit the Wind and Mac families." "After decades of seclusion, it's time for our Emperor clan to emerge." After Ethan left Auroria, the entire Flower Nation was abuzz. The five major war zones and tens of thousands of soldiers and officers moved day and night, and wherever they passed, the people rejoiced and welcomed them. The mighty army marched southward to attack the Ivory Guild. As the most dangerous organization in Flower Nation, the Ivory Guild was a target that needed to be eliminated. At this time, Ethan became a hero by eliminating harm for the people and was warmly supported by the entire nation. Not only that, but all three Emperors, who had been in hiding for decades, also took this
Having said that, this person launched a cruel move towards the Heavenly Lord. The Heavenly Lord was unable to prepare in time and was killed immediately. “Okay, after dealing with that bad guy, next is the fight between us,” the head of the Ivory Guild glanced at Ethan. That Celestial Lord is nothing more than a puppet. The person behind the control and manipulation of the Ivory Guild is this Venerable. ……. Long Dao, Son Dinh. This is the place to worship the ancient Emperor. After thousands of years, only two people came here today. One person is Ethan, and the other person is the Venerable of the Ivory Guild who came because he was forced. The suppression of Ethan's great army caused all of this Venerable's subordinates to be defeated and have no way to retreat. At this time the Ivory Guild disbanded, only the Venerable of the Ivory Guild had to come here under Ethan's pursuit. When he arrived here, he saw Ethan standing on the mountain waiting for him. "Venerable Bach Cot
For example, at this moment, the strength he showed clearly surpassed the realm that Hoang Lao understood, so not long after the fight, Hoang Lao began to realize the problem, he began to scream. “Ethan, no matter how strong your strength is, you cannot destroy the Ivory Guild,” Hoang Lao said harshly. But unfortunately, Ethan in front of him just coldly cleared his throat: "Is that so?" After Old Man Hoang realized how strong Ethan was, he no longer restrained his body's strength. He used all his power, his main purpose was to kill Ethan. Seeing this, Ethan still stood as firmly as Mount Thai, not moving at all. At the same time, he clenched his fist and threw a punch, defeating all of Hoang Lao's defenses, making him basically unable to block. He was hit by a strong blow from Ethan, so he screamed in agony. “Ah…”, he was in extreme pain. Hoang Lao was so strong and yet at this moment he was defeated so easily, making the people around him surprised and speechless. They were un
