With a snap that reverberated like a cosmic thunderclap, Bellum summoned a cage so immense it seemed to defy the laws of existence. Inside its forbidding confines lay Evelyn's mother, trapped in a petrified trance, her eyes echoing an abyss of despair.

"Mom, Mom!" Evelyn's anguished cry cleaved through the air like a blade through the very essence of her being, making her own mortality seem trivial. In that moment, she yearned for herself to be the captive within that cage, rather than her mother.

Emma raised her head, grinning with an eerie look as if she was a monster from an alternate dimension. "Mom, it's me, Evelyn, and this is Edward. How in the name of all that's holy can you not recognize us?" Evelyn's voice trembled with a haunting desperation.

Evelyn even contemplated launching herself forward to liberate her mother from that steel prison. Laura swiftly pulled her close, offering a protective sanctuary.

"Hold your horses, Evelyn. That place is a minefield of treachery."

    “Obedience Pill?” Bellum repeated angrily, “what the heck is that?”In fact, Edward had no idea about what should the pill be called, for when they had bought it in the online store of his system, it did not offer a proper name for it.His system only explained its effect that it could help people to recover their volition. Thus, Edward thought it might be of great use to ‘wake’ Emma.“Are you thick in your head, Bellum? I’ve already told you it’s called Obedience Pill. It means from now on, Emma won‘t listen to you anymore. She will be obedient to me and do as I command.”“Bullshit!” fumed Bellum, “no one can find the antidote to my potion that had been fed to Emma. You must be kidding!”He then turned to Emma, commanding,“Kill the young man now. You can employ your ice attack.”In a blaze of eloquence and a dash of theatrical flair, Emma's eyes ignited with an arctic resolve that could have given Frost himself a chill.She shot Edward a glance seething with a fury potent enough to

    "I see," Edward exclaimed, his eyes ablaze with eagerness, "So, does this mean I can take the plunge into gold?""That's the notion. When it comes to gold, the name of the game is to kickstart a low-volatility to high-volatility follow-through strategy," Cicci reappeared on the screen, her gaze locked onto Edward, her eyes as wide as saucers."Low-volatility to high-volatility follow-through? What's the lowdown on that?" Edward couldn't resist but inquire."This strategy is in a league of its own, a far cry from the narrow range reversal tactic we delved into earlier. Given gold's rollercoaster-like volatility, it's tailor-made for the low-volatility to high-volatility follow-through," Cicci explained, her voice as melodious as a serene stream, leaving a sense of tranquility in its wake."But Cicci," Edward quizzed with genuine curiosity, "You didn't exactly dish out a straightforward answer to my question.""Didn't you mention that you're running low on the clock?" Cicci's laughter r

    At the moment, Bellum‘s men took turns flaunting the QR code on his phone to Edward, their eyes fixed on the promise of riches.Edward, exuding a devil-may-care attitude toward money, casually transferred the $100,000 cash flow to each of them.The number of the people was small, a meager twenty or so.Edward couldn't help but entertain the notion that these crisp Benjamins he transferred might steer these souls away from the abyss of wickedness, a play he considered a noble act for the betterment of humanity.It might have run up a tab of roughly $2 million, but he viewed it as a bet worth making, for it might translate into twenty less demons haunting the world."Now that you've all cashed in, it's time to roll up your sleeves. Free those innocents unjustly caged in this dungeon," Edward commanded, a glint of resolve in his eyes."Of course, it's strictly business. We'll dance to your tune," one of the gang members responded with a sly grin."You've never asked us to tango with the

    In the blink of an eye, Bellum unfurled a sprawling national map of the Gluttony Gang's covert lairs, each one etched onto the page like a canvas of criminal intrigue.As Edward took hold of the chart, his eyes stretched wide in disbelief, aghast at the panorama of sinister sanctuaries clandestinely stitched into the very fabric of the nation.These foul laboratories, infamous for their uncanny knack for snatching unsuspecting souls, unraveled the mystery of the persistent vanishing acts that had plagued him for ages.Edward's innate well of justice surged like an unquenchable inferno, and he pledged to turn these malevolent hives into ruins. But he was all too aware that embarking on this herculean endeavor solo would be nothing short of a fool's errand.As the ancient adage would have it, to collar a crook, you've got to first nab the big cheese.Edward was resolute in his belief that the Gluttony Gang's grandmaster had to be incapacitated or bent to his will.

    "I'll be damned if I don't find that son of a gun Caelum and serve him a platter of revenge hot enough to make the devil himself break a sweat," Edward raged, his eyes burning with vengeful fire."This slippery snake probably thought we were pushing up daisies and skedaddled. But mark my words, he hasn't skipped town too far.""You're spot-on, Edward," Evelyn pondered, her voice dripping with resolute determination. "For now, our number one job is to get the heck out of this place and give Laura the send-off she's due.""You hit the nail on the head," Edward agreed, his resolve unwavering.Edward summoned a blazing inferno in his hand and hurled it like a meteor at the switch behind the iron gate.The moment his fireball collided with the switch, a deafening explosion rocked the dungeon. The switch went flying from one end to the other, and the iron gate, forged by artificers, began its slow ascent, revealing a path to liberty.With Laura's lifeless body slung over his shoulder, Edwar

    “It must be Caelum,” seethed Edward, “It looks like we have to fight against him here.”Instantly, Edward floored his own car. He even wanted to make it fly if possible since it was now dangerous for them. Numerous missiles came flying toward them mercilessly. Fortunately, Edward had activated his Life Skills Package, so he could easily drive his car like a pro. “Haha, there’s no way for you to escape this time,’ here came the familiar voice as the car behind them got closer. Sure enough, the voice came from none other than Caelum. He had gone back to the dungeon and found no corpses of Edward. Consequently, he was sure that he and his friend had not been killed by deadly black smoke. “It’s fortunate that you narrowed escaped from the dungeon,” shouted Caelum, “Now go to hell!” He kept firing the missiles at Edward’s car in hopes of killing him in the explosions. Yet, what pissed him off was that his missiles were always missing. When he was only a few meters away from Edward’s

    "No, I still have value to you," Caelum suddenly grew tense. "And some advantages you can take. You might take me to Gluttony Hell, at least you can think of me as a hostage for a more secure negotiation." Edward gave a cold snort and said, "I know what's going through your mind. If I were to measure your value to me, I'd say it's depreciated by at least three-quarters." With that, Edward let his large, green hand tighten its grip on Caelum's soul. In just a few moments, Caelum cried out in pain, "No, please don't kill me. I told you I'm the nephew of the Gluttony Gang's leader. If I die, I can guarantee that our leader will eradiate you all. Trust me!" Edward paid him no mind and continued to tighten his control over Caelum's soul with that green hand. Caelum's eyes started to roll back, and it seemed like he was on the brink of passing out when Edward suddenly loosened the grip slightly. Caelum took a sharp breath, feeling like he had come back to life. However, when he even t

    Since Edward had previously taken the pill of Roaring Thunder, which could help him cultivate in the lightning. Seeing that his blue lightning would soon hit Edward, Promete smiled. It was true that most people would be dead if they were attacked by powerful lighting. However, he did not know that Edward was immune to lightning attack now. On the contrary, Edward could even absorb the last bit of power from any lightning. Instantly, the lightning wound itself around the body of Edward. “Ha-ha, go to hell,” shouted Promete, who thought he was an unparalleled genius. “You’re getting too above yourself!” Edward smiled, who started to play with the lightning as if he was a magician. Edward toyed with the crackling lightning ensnaring him, as though it were a cherished bauble in his grasp. Promete, wide-eyed and dumbfounded, couldn't fathom how his electrifying assault had utterly failed against Edward. "How on earth are you able to do that?" Promete's jaw threatened to kiss the grou

    Chapter 153 Lightning Strike

    As night descended, the winds began to stir, fueling the twin-headed fire dragon flames, making them burn even more intensely. They blazed brilliantly, as if they intended to incinerate the darkness in an instant. But the most crucial aim was to annihilate their enigmatic adversary, the one they believed had met his match in these mystical, fiery behemoths. Regina and Pugno were convinced that the dual-headed dragon, born from the transformation of their twin swords, held the power to vanquish their foe. However, Edward knew that their opponent's combat capabilities far surpassed their own. Their audacious move seemed like a proverbial case of bringing a knife to a gunfight. So,Edward understood the necessity of intervening when needed. The muscular figure, bare-chested and built like a tank, proved to be far from a pushover. He moved with lightning-like speed, nimbly weaving through the fire and seemingly unaffected by the intense flames, which reached temperatures soaring into the

    “OK, let’s go and destroy this evil Gluttony Hell!” said Edward. Just as Edward, Regina, Pugno and his men from Blood Sword Sect walked only for a few minutes, they were stopped by a bunch of strong men in black, who marched like columns of mechanical men, their eyes straight ahead, their legs and arms swinging almost in unison, like those marionettes under the control of a single pair of invisible hands. It looked like they were trained rigorously. “Who are you?” shouted Edward. “Who are we?” sneered one of the men with a crew cut in the lead of the people, who was stocky---not heavy but well-muscled, with strong arms and thighs. His eyes, short and narrow like small cracks in a huge wall, glinted with slyness. He made no effort to be gentle, elbowing his men as he forced his way to Edward. The stocky man suddenly untied his coat and showed the T-shirt inside it which read ‘I’m an evil guy’. Pointing at his T-shirt, he added with another sneer, “Look at this! You are unlucky to

    Naturally, Regina closed her eyes, decided to let Edward do anything to her. Edward leaned close enough until he could even hear the beatings of her heart. Glancing at her ample part of her generous bosom, Edward felt blood started to rush both to his heart and the most private part of his body under the equator, just like a cannon erecting up to the sky, ready to send bombs at any moment. Yet, Edward knew he had to contain his excitement as he had promised his girlfriend that he would restrain himself and wouldn’t do anything that would harm their relationship. Thus, though drooling over the beauty of Regina, Edward just swallowed a mouthful of saliva and then calmed himself down. “Well, open your eyes, Regina,” Edward said with an awkward smile, ‘Actually, I’ve got a girlfriend and I love her very much. I won’t do anything that would harm my relationship with her. Besides, you know, I was saving you not because I wanted to get something from you. I’ve told you, you’re a free will

    Instantly, there was another huge explosion when celestial ice arrows met those fiery swords halfway. Edward, handsome and unstrained, exuding an aura of confidence, became more overbearing with every step toward Regina. “Hey, what do you think of my counterattack?” sneered Edward. “What kind of other moves do you have? Show me more!” Hearing that, Regina was almost hitting the roof. Before she could launch another round of attacks, Edward swiftly maneuvered behind her and lightly flicked her head, causing her coiffed hair to quickly come undone. Now, with her unbound tresses streaming over her shoulders, she was indeed an unparalleled beauty. “What are you doing?” seethed Regina, glaring at Edward. “You’re acting like a lascivious bastard. Apparently, you’re courting your own death.” Yet, Edward, a vibrant youth with unparalleled manliness, immediately flirted, “I like to fight with a beautiful girl. I have to say if you’re not my foe, I probably will fall in love with you. I

    Edward reached out his hand, and in the blink of an eye, a chill ran down his spine as the Celestial Gem soared right into his waiting chest. Yet, the extraordinary unfolded before his very eyes. Edward felt an overwhelming surge of power coursing through his veins, a sensation like no other. In an instant, his entire body turned translucent, akin to the purest glass. Edward experienced an unprecedented blessing that could only be attributed to the Celestial Gem. Was this the fabled "light at the end of the tunnel" that he'd heard whispers of? His heart raced as he involuntarily assumed a lotus position, eyes shut tight. Darkness was only thing he could see in his shut eyes, but the energy emanating from the pearl illuminated the abyss inside his eyes, bathing everything in a radiant glow. "Could this be what they mean by 'seeing the light'?" Edward mused silently. "It's simply marvelous." Before long, a comforting warmth enveloped his entire being, like snuggling under a cozy win

    "Ah..." Caelum's body plummeted rapidly, and he felt his demise was all but certain this time. The cliff was unbelievably high, a mind-boggling abyss that seemed to stretch at least five kilometers deep. He closed his eyes, surrendering to the howling winds swirling past him. The gusts stung his face, and although the wind kissed his cheeks, it cut deeper than a knife into his heart. Suddenly, Edward's voice echoed in his ears. "Rest assured, I won't let you go down that easily. Since you killed Laura with no remorse, I'll torment you in every conceivable way, time and time again." Edward's voice was as cold as ice. It looked like Caelum was getting his just desserts. Caelum opened his eyes to find Edward hurtling down the cliff right alongside him. It offered some small comfort – if he were to meet his end, at least he'd have some company. "You're a devil, Edward. If you'd choose to end your life this way, why torment me like this?" Caelum exclaimed in fury. "Me?" Edward sneer

    ‘Roaring Thunder?” Edward exclaimed, wondering what he could do with it. His mind was read by his system instantly, which sent him a new text message. [Roaring thunder, a kind of pill that can help you cultivate in the lightning. Most people will be dead if they are hit by lighting. Yet, if you take this pill’ Roaring Thunder,’ it will make you immune to lightning and thunderous attack. On the contrary, you will be tempered by thunder and lightning of several ten thousand volts.] ‘Wow, that’s amazing,’ exclaimed Edward again, ‘I’ve never expected there’s such a pill in this world. I have to say there are quite a few precious pills here in this online store. It looks like I can shop often here. Cicci will be quite happy if I do.’ Edward was on cloud nine now. Without any further hesitation, Edward instantly consumed five thousand luxury points to get ‘Roaring Thunder’ which went into his item inventory immediately. ‘Well, I’d better take it now just in case,’ Edward thought, ‘I ha
