The Return of Don Denver CHAPTER 240
How can a dead person move?How can a dead person growl?Denver had seen the movies where dead people moved, and they were called zombies. In fact, zombies were probably Diane’s favorite fantasy creatures as she often dressed up as a zombie on Halloween most of the time.But, seeing one on TV and in real life was a whole different thing.Denver, for a few seconds, was not able to process what he was witnessing.His feet did not move. His arms shivered somewhat. His heart also shook quite a bit.And his brain could not process the signals his eyes kept sending.The ‘running’ dead, faceless person jumped at Denver, as if trying to chew off Denver’s face and then probably eat his brains.Suddenly, a tree branch flew in like a spear and caught the undead monster around the waist and took it away.“What were you thinking, Boss?” Sheryl arrived up to him quickly.“Yeah, why were you just standing and daydreaming?” Catherine scolded him first and then looked at the seemingly undead monster.
The Return of Don Denver CHAPTER 241
The next morning.Denver arrived at the Rose Tower, which Sheryl had to rebuild because it suffered damage due to her skirmish with Novick.Catherine sat in the seat Sheryl had prepared for Denver, so it upset Sheryl. “I didn’t make that throne for you.”“It’s a throne? But it is full of flowers,” Catherine smiled. “I like it. This is probably the only good thing you did in a while. But don’t worry. I’ll sit here and make this chair complete.”“You…” Sheryl was gritting her teeth, but Denver was okay with sitting on top of the desk.“How are the remaining people doing inside these walls?” Denver asked.“They are all terrified, not knowing when they are going to die,” Sheryl said.“They are afraid even with the walls protecting them?”“It’s not about the walls. They saw the street commanders get mind controlled last night,” Sheryl said. “Whether the council is behind it or not, it’s not something just anyone can do. If they can manipulate commander-level people, then it’s also possible
The Return of Don Denver CHAPTER 242
A few minutes before dawn.“Show yourself, Denver! And bring Minerva out!” an old woman’s voice penetrated through people’s eardrums, forcing them to shut their ears.The people in Rose Park looked up at the sky.There was a big hawk flying above, flapping its wings but keeping its head absolutely still.A giant hologram of Natalie was standing on top of the hawk.“The Pharma Squad is on its way here,” Natalia added. “You better bring Minerva out before it’s too late for you.”On the top floor of Rose Tower.Catherine looked at Sheryl. “What’s a Pharma Squad? Do they deal with medicine?”“And poison,” Sheryl said. “They are bad news. They can spray gas and make it linger in this place, which will make this area uninhabitable.”“I can use my ability to send that gas away before it fills this region,” Catherine said.“Can you do that for this entire Rose Park?” Sheryl asked quickly.Catherine slowly shook her head. “No, I don’t think I can pull it off on such a scale just yet.”“How abo

“Break the wall,” Weber ordered.“But, Captain, there’s a gate over there,” one of the members pointed out.“Fools, we’re not entering this place as guests,” Weber shouted. “I’m going in first, so follow after me.” He clenched his fist and leaped forth. “Monster Smash!”The thick wooden wall got ripped in the middle, and the top half flew into the sky in that locality, opening up a path for others to enter.Seeing Weber’s overwhelming power, the people cried and spread out in different directions.“Even ants are more courageous than these idiots,” Weber cracked his knuckles. “Isn’t there a single brave soul in this place? Did they all die fighting the demented beasts yesterday?”Just then, a ten-year-old boy stood in Weber’s path, holding a mere tree branch.“Ho, are you planning on fighting me with that puny little thing, brat?” Weber amusedly said.“I’m going to avenge my friends!” he rushed forth with no fear or anxiousness in his eyes.“Fine. I’ll send you to your friends you seem
The Return of Don Denver CHAPTER 244
The laser attack traveled in the blink of an eye and struck Catherine.But nothing happened.The fat woman slightly frowned and then shot a couple more times.Both the attacks struck Catherine in the chest.Again, there was no response.Catherine stood unaffected, with her hands in her pockets. “You were saying some shit, but this is all you were capable of?” She dismissed the fat woman’s ability.“H-How’s this possible?” The fat lady looked quite perplexed.“I may not look like it, but I used to read newspapers a lot, so I know a thing or two about science,” Catherine said. “Lasers just work by giving heat to the objects they strike, right? So, all I have to do is disperse that heat. Take the pressure off of the spot they’re targeting, and then the laser will not be able to do a thing to me.”The fat lady’s eyes widened. “D-Didn’t you just acquire this ability a couple of days back? How can you already use it so proficiently?”“Because my breasts are fit unlike yours,” Catherine answ
The Return of Don Denver CHAPTER 245
Weber reached the Rose Tower and straight away jumped to the rooftop in one big leap.However, he did not see Denver.Only Sheryl was waiting for him.“Where’s Denver Nighthawk?” Weber asked. “Did he flee because of my arrival?”“Don’t worry about him. I’m more than enough for you,” Sheryl replied while tossing bubble gum in her mouth.“You?” Weber laughed.“Are you afraid of me? Is that why you’re laughing?”“No, men are only intimidated by women’s incompetence,” Weber retorted. “I’m afraid that I might get dumber from fighting women, which is why I avoid fighting women if it’s possible.”“You work for the council, right?” Sheryl said.“Yeah, so?”“Who’s the head of the council?” Sheryl asked.Weber frowned.“Natalia is a woman, isn’t he?” Sheryl said. “Or does she have a ding-dong in her pants?”She purposely spoke out loud so that Natalia’s hologram could hear it.Natalia grew extremely mad from hearing Sheryl’s words. “Weber, what the hell are you doing letting her talk nonsense!
The Return of Don Denver CHAPTER 246
Denver was on the top floor, observing the battles of Sheryl and Catherine.He was happy and proud that they both handled their fights well and managed to stand on top.Denver looked up through the window and saw Natalia’s holographic image.Natalia was fuming at Weber and his squad for miserably failing even after using various poisons.A man silently entered the room Denver was in.He closed in on his toes and attacked Denver with a knife. He tried to strike the neck, but Denver caught the knife without even looking. Turning around, Denver returned a cold gaze to him. “Who are you?”“I’m a local of Nameless Zone,” he cried. “You probably don’t remember me, but you’re the one who raped my girlfriend and killed her.”“What?” Denver frowned. “Are you speaking the truth? I don’t remember any of it.”“So just because you don’t remember doing it, you are not responsible for all the evil you’ve done in the past?” he growled, then took out a bomb and flipped the pin.KA BOOM~! BA DA BOOM~~
The Return of Don Denver CHAPTER 247
Sheryl put Weber and Betsy at Denver’s feet.Seeing Betsy’s terrible situation, with her facial bones destroyed and all, Denver looked at Catherine, “You’ve gone a little overboard.”“I-I didn’t think my punch would cause so much damage,” Catherine couldn’t hide her guilt. “I will be more careful next time.”“You should, but more importantly, you should ensure that you don’t get hurt, so don’t go easy on opponents you think are strong,” Denver told her.Catherine nodded in a bit of relief. She wasn’t happy, though. “We can help get her old face back, can’t we? Using some miracle herb or any other way.”“Why should we do that?” Sheryl snorted. “They came here with the intent to kill us, so there’s no need to help her with anything. Besides, her original face is ugly. I’m sure she prefers this new look.”Sheryl was purposely roasting Betsy because Betsy was awake, unlike Weber who was still unconscious.Still, Betsy was not in a position to speak as her jaw was broken. So, all she could

CHAPTER 297
A storm-like energy completely engulfed not just the 81st floor but the entire tower.Catherine, Denver, and Yellow Tiger were at the center of it.Catherine was not able to take another step as her body was not moving as she wanted. The energy was so oppressive her knees grew weak.Denver, however, was still able to stand despite feeling as if his brain and body were swirling.“Eye of the Storm…” Yellow Tiger said in a tone that oozed raw power that quaked the very air all around. “Only two people have managed to escape this technique so far. One is the northern guardian White Phoenix, and the other one is the current head of the royal knights. Did you two pipsqueaks think you can run away from me and tell tales of it to others and mock me?”The pressure put on Denver strained his brain so much that a bit of the past flashed in his mind.“Boss, Boss!” Sheryl rushed over to Denver who just finished his mission of killing a deserter of Hawkers.Denver was gravely wounded at the time. “
CHAPTER 296
Catherine felt foolish for blowing a whistle which didn’t let out any sound. “Is it a one-time use object?”However, Yellow Tiger heard the inaudible noise that wasn’t heard by normal people. “This sound…” he fingered his ear. “That whistle must work like Spy Horn. Who did you call for help?”“My boyfriend,” Catherine replied. “If you don’t want your ass to be floored, then you better leave before he comes here.”“Who’s your boyfriend?”“My boyfriend is my boyfriend. Who else will be my boyfriend?”Yellow Tiger raised an eyebrow. “Does she have a screw loose or something? Or is she acting stupid on purpose?”He immediately turned into a flash and closed the distance.Catherine barely saw his blurry figure and reflexively threw a kick at him.All she hit was his afterimage.The next second, Yellow Tiger was standing right where his afterimage should be.He had all the time in the world to strike Catherine, but he sniffed her and said, “Is your boyfriend Denver? I smell him on you.”Ca

“That black mass is going to ruin your body from within,” Gray caught Catherine’s face with her bare hand and uttered, “Laser Bomb.”A hole opened up in her palm and blasted forth a powerful laser.The attack went right through Catherine’s mouth.Gray thought she had won, but the laser bomb shrunk in size and was compressed into a tiny ball.“What the…” Gray frowned.Catherine coughed the tiny ball out, which struck Gray’s face and destroyed half of it.But then Gray’s face began to regenerate, and Catherine couldn’t believe it. “Even the head can grow back? Just what the hell did you turn your bodies into? You can’t call yourself human anymore.”“Yeah, I’m not human. I’m Human N.0.”A few years back.Borg promoted Gray to being his direct assistant, and she was overjoyed by it.She was expecting many upgrades as well, and the first thing Borg did was inject her with some liquid which looked black.“What is this?” she asked out of curiosity. “It looks creepy.”Borg smiled. “But you’re
CHAPTER 294
On the 63rd floor.Catherine and Gray were fighting intensely, and Gray felt like her body had grown thirty times heavier.As a result, she was receiving more damage than she could inflict.“I have never seen anybody bend laser beams, and you even deflected explosions,” Gray said with much hatred oozing from her eyes. “What kind of monstrous ability do you have?”“If you’ve got any prayers, make them,” Catherine was looking to use her killer punch on her opponent, but she had to be careful before closing in as Gray could still use laser beams. “You’re not going to be leaving this battle alive.”“I’m not afraid of death. I don’t have any family or friends,” Gray said. “But the only person I work for in this world is Borg. For him, I will kill or die if needed. And today, I will kill you and all the other intruders.”“You can daydream all you want, but you ain't gonna be nothing more than my sandbag, girl!” Catherine clapped her hands as Gray closed in.The floor and the ceiling started
CHAPTER 293
Yellow Tiger burst his way through the walls of the tower and entered the 56th floor.“Was it 56?”He stomped on the ground and destroyed the floor locally, thus falling into the 55th floor.“Mm?”He saw Deenver standing, putting his foot on top of the augman captain who had lost all of his limbs and was not able to regenerate.For a second, Yellow Tiger saw the king in Denver’s face.“Out of all the sons, you resemble the closest to him…” Yellow Tiger commented. “Do you know? When the couples are falling in love, they share more of their parents’ features. So the child looks more like them instead of looking like their grandparents or other relatives.”“What are you talking about?” Denver put pressure on his foot, making the augman captain cough blood out and cringe in pain. “Who are you?”“But you got more of your father’s features and not your mother’s….” Yellow Tiger smirked. “Then again, your skin color is closer to your mother. Your father isn’t as fair as you are.”Denver’s jaw
CHAPTER 292
A few minutes earlier.Alex was brought into the laboratory by a group of four augmen scientists.“Are we going to make another augman out of this guy?”“No, we were ordered to remove his conscience and turn him into a ruthless killer.”“Then we have to operate on both the hippocampus and amygdala.”“While we’re busy working on him, make sure nobody disturbs us, Bulk.”“Sure thing,” Bulk was sitting by the bench, slurping on noodles. He was nearly seven feet tall and looked massive with his muscles hidden beneath layers of fat.He was called Bulk because he never cut his meals. So, he looked like a walking bison.Bulk observed the augmen work on Alex’s brain.They began to extract his memories, which were being displayed on the screen in a zig-zag manner.“So he’s from some poor village, huh. He’s never going to go back there,” Bulk laughed. “So he should thank us.”Just then, the glass doors slid open, and Sheryl entered the hall.Her eyes momentarily froze when she realized that it
CHAPTER 291
Yellow Tiger bent his knees and leaped off the ground.He effortlessly reached the top floor and landed next to Borg.“Where is Denver right now?”“On the 55th floor,” Borg showed him the video feed. “He’s fighting my forces right now. Not sure what he wants, but I’d appreciate it if you can break his knees and take him away… Southern Guardian.”“55th floor, is it?” Yellow Tiger jumped off the balcony and clawed his fingers through the tough cement wall and slid down.Borg secretly smiled. “Yellow Guardian… he’s known for his ferocious fighting style. This martial art monster should be more than enough to deal with Denver. Once Denver is defeated, that’s when I’ll step in and take his ability from him. If I can get my hands on blood lightning, I can take my armor to a whole ‘nother level.”Meanwhile, Natalia used her coat, an advanced tech gadget, to fly through the air and reach great heights where a man was standing atop a cloud.He was a bald man with a rather sad expression on his
CHAPTER 290
Denver went downstairs because he knew Sheryl was going upstairs.“Sheryl’s senses improved greatly after she acquired her superpower,” he thought. “She has more chances of finding Minerva than I do, but I can’t let that slow me down,either.”Denver went for one spot to another in a quick flash while destroying the cameras and any robots that were in his path.“I hope this helps create the diversion for Sheryl to succeed.”Because of the ruckus Denver caused on floors below 60, a lot of augbeasts and augmen rushed to these floors.Denver didn’t use his lightning but rather used aura to blast through the augbeasts, but he only knocked the augmen out.To his shock, the augbeasts regenerated at a visible pace.“What the heck?” He was baffled to see a whole machine arm of an augman captain regenerate fast, but then he remembered what Sheryl had said about regenerating and reproducing bots.“Haha,” the augman captain laughed. “Have you never seen a machine regenerate before? We use what ou
CHAPTER 289
Sheryl knocked the two guards out and tossed them aside.“You went easy on them,” Catherine said as they were rude to her.“They were augmented humans, so fighting them would only waste our energy,” Sheryl stated. “When you fight them, you’ll know.”“I will check for myself later on,” Catherine nodded in excitement.“I think they alerted everyone in the building,” Sheryl also said. “Time for us to change.”They quickly changed their masks to look like the guests.And then they rushed out of the room.Within seconds, many flying bots arrived there, but they didn’t attack Denver and others. They just went right past them.“I was doubtful,” Catherine gave a thumbs-up, “but it worked.”It was Sheryl’s idea, but Sheryl didn’t brag about it.“Were those the self-exploding bots?” Denver queried.“Yeah, the worst part about them is that they can replicate, so there’s no end to them,” Sheryl replied.“Replicate?” Catherine felt like she lost a few of her brain cells. “Aren’t they machines?”“T
