Alex swallowed nervously. He had never felt afraid of anything for years now, but his heart was currently beating like a mad samba drum as he tightened his hands on his weapons. He had quickly unsheathed the long sword on his waist, moving it to his right, while the dagger was held in the left to act as a shield. He adjusted the backpack quickly, keeping an eye on the ancestor as they circled him, moving closer to entrap him in a close circle.“Old monster, you seem pretty confident of killing me. Isn't that too presumptuous?” He asked mockingly, charging at the Siagan ancestor.“You're digging your grave, idiot,” the Siagan muttered, watching Alex, who was rushing towards his direction.The siagans excelled in close combat due to their natural strength, flexibility and endowment, so anyone's best bet when faced by a powerful Siagan would be to run as far as possible.The Siagan ancestor quickly slashed out a claw, but Alex quickly met it with his meteoric iron sword.A loud metallic
The Siagan immediately dived towards him with a wicked smirk, aiming for his throat.But against all expectations, it grunted and slumped on top of Alex.Alex had simultaneously stabbed his long sword and dagger in its heart and neck at the same time, giving it no time to react because it didn't see them coming.Alex gritted his teeth, holding back his disgust as the green liquids spluttered on his face, drenching his entire body.He groaned in pain, trying to throw off the weight of the heavy Siagan. He finally rolled it, kicked it to the side, and it fell with a thump, destroying a few trees in its wake.Alex quickly forced himself to stand, but almost immediately, his leg gave way.He staggered and caught a tree, watching his blood pooling around his feet. Despite the fact that Alex's skin was durable and tough, the Siagan had slashed deep into his leg muscles, tearing a lot of blood vessels in the process.Other monsters began to swarm towards him, attracted by the smell of blood.
Alex sat before the lake, slowly helping himself to the canned food in his backpack.He sighed, checking his wounds, which were not healing as fast as he wanted it to.He dressed the wound and wrapped it with waterproof gauze, and wore a waterproof bodysuit, staring at the lake before him.“The density of that murky water is really high, gun and bullets will be useless inside it. It's back to the primitive way in this case,” he muttered, equipping himself with special goggles and a mask.He looked at the crocodiles through his telescope, noticing that most of them had one eye closed.“Are they about to take a nap?” Alex whispered excitedly, trying to pinpoint the particular location of the herb he was looking for.He quietly crept to the edge of the lake closest to it and waited till the surrounding crocodiles fell asleep.Alex slowly dipped himself inside the water, trying to be as quiet as possible to avoid waking them up.He began the torturous dive through the smelly water, while
“Why isn't he waking up? Should we strip him? We need to see the extent of his wounds,” Aridan whispered worriedly.“The boss doesn't like people seeing his body. Should we take him back to ma'am Eleanor? I'm sure the boss wouldn't mind since they used to be lovers,” Ikaris suggested.“No, it's not possible. It's obvious that the boss doesn't want her to know about his identity. Besides, she will be frightened out of her mind and probably faint if she sees the hideous and disgusting pus all over his body. She also seems to be quarrelling with him, I don't think he will appreciate her seeing him in this condition, the boss is a very proud man,” Raz immediately refuted.“Damn! I have never seen the boss like this. Even when he was attacked by millions of soldiers with missiles, enduring multiple gunshots and bomb blasts, he didn't lose consciousness or look as pale as he does right now,” Aridan whispered worriedly.“It's the environment, the forbidden zones have powerful spiritual force
Kristen ran in with the heavy box containing her tools, her assistant tagging behind her with another box.“You idiot! I told you thirty minutes max. Why are you getting here after an hour? Look what you've done, you lazy bum!” Raz growled angrily, still administering CPR on Alex to bring back his heart beat.“It's not my fault. I was at the other end of the world. None of you notified me that the boss went on a mission. Even if I entered the special Jet immediately I received the message, getting here still took a lot of time. It takes nearly a day to cover such distance. Why are you blaming me when I managed to get here in one hour?” Kristen shouted back, quickly setting down her box.“I don't care whatever reason you give, the boss left you with one of the fastest modified jets because of your position as the chief emergency response personnel, being unable to get here in thirty minutes is your damn fault. Get to work!” Raz growled, moving back to give her space.“Wait till I becom
Alex's eyes were wide open, they had turned totally red with a frightening black vertical slit in their middle.His body had turned into a greenish color; instead of their normal rosy white, with a hint of tan. Veins were protruding from his body and his limbs were moving strangely.Kristen smirked as she watched the three of them trying to soothe Alex and bring him back to his normal self.“Oh my gosh! You guys must have made his condition worse with the antidotes, what did I tell you?” She said, pretending to be angry and worried. They stared at her resentfully, trying to hold Alex down on the bed.“Damn it, if only Ariella knows how to transmit energy. Only her can force his sanity to return,” Raz muttered, attempting to cover Alex with his cold energy.Kristen's eyes immediately narrowed, staring at them with a vicious glare filled with jealousy and hate.“Who is Ariella?” She asked, her voice a whisper as she tried to hide her emotions.“She's boss's favorite lover. Why do you a
Kristen looked up at him, biting her lips.“I don't think I will be able to give him a head. His cock is too big. I will just ride him, we can use protection if you insist,” she whispered, twisting her fingers in mock nervousness.“Forget it then. If you won't give him a head to save his life, I will,” Aridan said angrily, staring at the suspicious individual before him.He had been carefully reading her emotions and something seems off, making him unwilling to let her come close to Alex.“Excuse me? Are you gay?” She asked, turning to him.“I'm not. Doing it once won't make me gay either. If you don't want to do it, I will, you see what's happening to him. Are you going or not?” He asked impatiently, looking at her.Kristen stared at him resentfully, hating him more than she has ever hated anyone.“Fine, I will try, you guys can leave,” she said, crossing her arms before her.“Not happening, we're not moving an inch from this room,” Aridan insisted.“Excuse me? You perverted boy, do
Kristen smiled in relief, the blood sample safely in her pocket.She turned to the three men in the room, who were still huddling around Alex, discussing in hushed tones.“I will be leaving now,” she announced, patting Raz's back.“Won't you wait for the boss to wake up?” Ikaris asked, turning to her.“There's no need for that. He's already out of danger. I'm confident about it. Besides, I abandoned a patient's surgery to hurry here. Her case is a very difficult one. I need to be there as soon as possible, let's see if she can make it out alive,” Kristen explained with a calm smile, stylishly dismissing them.“Thanks for rushing here immediately you were called. I was just agitated, that's why I took it out on you. Thank you,” Ikaris whispered, trying to indirectly apologize to her because he yelled at her when she showed up late.Kristen immediately got the message and nodded with a smile.“I only did my duty, I don't adore him any less than you guys. He might be harsh and cold, but
