Richard managed to catch three bullets in one swift motion. In that instant, the surroundings suddenly went silent and still.

“Crazy!”

“W-What... What was that?!”

Everyone stared with wide eyes, stepping back two paces. Zorric himself appeared stunned, his eyes nearly popping out of their sockets, almost fainting on the spot.

He couldn’t believe his own eyes at what had just happened in front of him. How could Richard catch a bullet speeding towards him using only his bare hands?

What the man had just done was not something an ordinary human could do. And what was most terrifying was that Richard was completely unscathed! The ability Richard had was beyond his comprehension.

“Le-Leader...” The S-level soldier also looked dazed by the recent events.

Richard remained silent, offering no response. Richard, who had been prepared to lose the palm of his hand, also stood motionless for a moment. His eyes shifted from the bullet to the golden gloves he was wearing, alternating his gaze betwe

    “Huh? Why is it so quiet? I think I still heard gunshots and people’s screams earlier, but now it’s completely silent. Could something have happened to Richard?” Aurora started to panic and began tiptoeing and hopping slightly to peek outside through the ventilation gap.There was no one outside, and the atmosphere around them suddenly became eerily quiet and tense. “Ms. Aurora, what’s the situation outside?”Aurora furrowed her brow upon hearing Ramiro’s question. She was overwhelmed with an extraordinary sense of panic and confusion.“It seems like the fight outside has ended. I’m worried something happened to Richard.” Ramiro simply furrowed his brow, confused, and asked, “Should we go out?”“Wait a little longer, let’s wait for one more minute. If there’s still no sound or sign of anything, then we’ll go out,” Aurora replied uncertainly.Just as she finished speaking, a sound came from outside. Aurora’s heart suddenly stopped, her body tensed, becoming alert. In a silence like th

    Seeing Roderick, who was so stubborn, made the two guards reluctantly agree to let him go. “You guard Mr. Roderick and exit through the back door. Take him to the main base with our car. I’ll go to the lobby and find Mr. Roderick’s grandson,” instructed the other guard.“Understood,” his companion replied, immediately moving to take Roderick out through the back door. Roderick, worried that the guards might mistakenly identify his grandson, intentionally reminded them again, “Not Reginald Dwayne. My grandson is the one who saved the S-level soldier earlier. Remember! Don’t mistake the wrong person!”The one who saved an S-level soldier? Mr. Roderick’s grandson is that capable?The guard was both surprised and excited at the same time. The reluctant feeling he had about helping the old man’s grandson was immediately replaced by an overwhelming sense of admiration. He quickly ran toward the lobby.Just as the guard arrived, he saw a familiar figure sneakily exiting and running.“Mr. R

    After saying those words, Richard pulled his hand back and ran into Hellio Room without turning back. Only thirty-seven seconds remained from the current time until the bomb would explode.Seeing the back of the man disappearing from her sight made Aurora’s heart ache. Half of her soul seemed to be forcibly pulled away, leaving her feeling empty.“Richard! Richard! You have to come back! I’ll hold you to your promise to marry me! If you don’t come back, I’ll die in there with you! I won’t look for anyone else and will die right in front of you, making you feel guilty forever!” Aurora shouted, tears streaming down her cheeks.She was terrified that Richard might never appear in front of her again. But at the same time, she couldn’t bear to see an innocent baby die so easily.Her cry echoed into the lobby and lingered in Richard’s ears. His heart skipped a beat, and with clenched fists, he muttered, “I’m sorry...”Richard wasn’t sure if he would make it out of this place alive.“Help...

    A slight look of anxiety appeared in the woman’s eyes. She dared not respond, fearing it might make Richard more suspicious of her.All she could do was gaze intently at the child in Richard’s arms, then say, “Nothing, nothing at all. He just comes from a regular family. I’ll contact the child’s family and ask them to come pick him up directly.” Richard squinted as he watched the woman’s back, growing farther away. He spoke to Ramiro in a voice loud enough to be heard, “Mr. Ramiro, I heard you have a private hospital, right? Take the child there immediately! I entrust him to you. Remember! Don’t let anyone have the child without my consent!” Ramiro quickly nodded, replying, “Understood! Leave it to me.” Richard was sure the woman had slowed her pace when he spoke to Ramiro earlier. It seemed like she had paid special attention to the child. When the crowd had started to disperse, Richard gave orders to his S-tier soldiers:“Follow Ramiro, and report to me directly if anything happe

    “Let your poor boyfriend see what real wealth looks like. The Skyler family is not the type of people who can be taken advantage of so easily!” Wilona said, turning around and walking toward the balcony door.The Skyler family also followed her out to the balcony. A moment later, they gasped in awe as they saw what lay before them.In front of them were ninety-nine luxury cars neatly lined up in front of the Skyler residence.“My God! Wilona, your boyfriend is so rich!” her aunt exclaimed, her eyes still fixed on the luxury cars.“Why not just send a debit card? How could he send so many luxury cars! It’s just like people say, it’s better to marry into a wealthy family than to be born into one!”“Anyway, in the future, you’ll have to live and move into your husband’s house. If a husband has no money, you’ll suffer forever!” Hollie added, deliberately glancing at Richard.Aurora was irritated by her family’s remarks about Richard. She pulled on his arm, intending to leave. But her move

    Aurora wasn’t the type to show kindness to anyone who had wronged her. Her sympathy was only reserved for those who treated her well. As for her family, they only cared about their own interests! Don’t expect her to be nice to any of them!***After leaving Skyler’s residence, Richard contacted Ramiro and sped quickly to the private hospital owned by the man. When he arrived, the atmosphere around the hospital was already terrifying. Several level-S soldiers lay helplessly, blood seeping all over their bodies. They struggled to stand, pressing their hands against their wounds when they saw Richard approach.“Where’s Ramiro?! Where’s the baby?!” Richard demanded, grabbing the collar of one of the soldiers.“Who are you?” the soldier asked, staring at Richard, who wasn’t wearing his face mask.Richard didn’t have time to entertain pointless questions. He gave a brief response and asked again, “I’m the one helping Ramiro. What happened? Where’s the baby?”“It was taken by a group dressed

    When the baby’s extended family arrived at the headquarters, Richard was not there. He was busy accompanying Aurora, who was looking for jewelry and a wedding ring.While Aurora was browsing the jewelry, she suddenly bumped into Sabella, her elementary school classmate.“Aurora, is that really you? What are you doing here?” asked Sabella, surprised to see her friend. “Are you looking at rings, Aurora? Are you planning to get married?” she asked again.Aurora smiled shyly and replied, “Yes, once my grandpa returns from his business trip, I’ll start discussing it with him. Right now, I’m preparing a few things before having a deeper conversation with my grandpa.”“You know, I don’t have many friends here. If you’d like, would you be one of my bridesmaids at the wedding?”Although Sabella was known to have a rather arrogant personality, she was always kind to Aurora. Hearing Aurora’s request, Sabella nodded happily. “Of course! I thought you’d forgotten about me!” “But Aurora, I heard

    Of course, negotiations would turn into an act of revenge. All of his descendants had been killed without a trace. What else could he do but seek revenge?Thinking about this, cold sweat appeared on Richard’s back.“I’m glad I saved that baby. But the consequences were beyond my imagination.”Saving the baby meant saving the Prime Minister of Vandrelis Country. At that moment, all praises were directed at him. Even the Prime Minister of Vandrelis Country would surely owe him a great debt. An invaluable help.It was no wonder that the nobles and enemy factions were so eager to kidnap that baby. It seemed they had long known the identity of Gonzalez.“Where are the people sent by Vandrelis Country?” Richard suddenly asked, as though under pressure.“At the Crowned Club, the headquarters,” Eno quickly answered.“I heard that the man whose face resembles your mask has confessed and is now volunteering to meet with the person responsible for Vandrelis Country.”Recently, Richard had been b

    “Master Richard... The people who are sick are Talyra Ashbourne and her mother. You had arranged for that woman to be trea—”The head servant walked up to Richard, intending to say something to him. However, the look in Richard’s eyes filled him with such fear that he was unable to utter another word.Without sparing the mother another glance, Richard walked past the head servant and left the place.Before leaving, he suddenly stopped for a brief moment.Then, he turned around. Just when the mother thought Richard would take pity on her and save her, he instead ignored her completely.Before leaving, he issued a warning to those who remained.“If you don’t want to die, stay away from these two! You won’t just get infected from their scratches. This disease can also spread through saliva.”“In three days, if they can’t be cured, prepare coffins and bury them immediately!”With those words, Richard left, utterly indifferent. He no longer cared about the mother and daughter’s condition.

    The acupuncture technique was so precise, and his hand movements were so swift that there was no trace of carelessness.On top of that, Richard’s handsome face, which looked somewhat familiar to Deliza, along with his dignified and commanding gaze, made her stop in her tracks as she approached.However, there was something about his eyes, an aura that seeped into the depths of her own gaze—something that pressed down on her, for some reason… making Richard seem less fierce and honorable than he appeared.And again! And again!That acupuncture technique…“Why does he also know that acupuncture technique? That… isn’t that the same technique Albin used?”“I saw Albin use that technique once before. Besides that, it’s been lost for years. How could he possibly…” Deliza stared at Richard in disbelief.Upon closer observation, she felt an even deeper chill when she noticed the needle tips embedded in the pedestrian’s body trembling slightly.Each time Richard inserted a needle, he infused i

    Seeing the doctor’s reaction, the mother was instantly stunned, frozen in place. She watched in shock as the doctor ran away, her mouth slightly open in disbelief.Then, she turned to her dying child, whose entire body was covered in blood. The sight was horrifying.She couldn’t comprehend how a doctor whom her family had trusted would suddenly flee like that.The arrogance that had once been on her face was now replaced by panic and fear. “No, don’t go... If you leave, what will happen to my child? Who will save my child?”Just as the mother was drowning in terror, the pedestrian who had been scratched by the woman earlier started showing the same symptoms. His eyes suddenly turned red, and he began scratching his own skin.While scratching, the man screamed, “It hurts! It itches!”“Aaaarrggghhh!”“She scratched me earlier! Someone help me, please! Help me!”At that moment, the expressions of everyone around changed drastically. Instinctively, they all stepped back—dozens of meters a

    It seemed... that voice sounded a bit like the man who had saved her five years ago.When the woman looked up, she saw the strikingly handsome features of Richard. And the confidence, along with an indescribable aura in Richard’s eyes.“This person... why does he look somewhat familiar? He’s like... the man who saved me five years ago. But, is it really him? Didn’t the one who saved me back then...” the woman murmured.“Ah, no. I must be overthinking things,” she shook her head and looked toward Richard again.“At such a young age, he already wants to be the center of attention. And he’s talking about contagious diseases too. What contagious disease?!”“Honestly. Kids these days, they think too shallowly and rush into things. Not like Albin, who’s already mature and humble.”The woman’s reactions were clearly visible to the head servant of the Dwayne Family, who was still standing in the same spot.“I-Isn’t that... isn’t that Mr. Albin’s future mother-in-law? How could she be here?” t

    While Albin was making all kinds of calculations in his mind, Richard, who was on the other side, had already arrived at the Grimhaven City airport with Lyonel.The journey from Myrcathia country to the Ninth Division could only be made by plane. Richard and Lyonel stood in the center of Grimhaven City, observing the city they were about to face.At first, Richard thought the Ninth Division, so powerful, should be different from other places. But it turned out that Grimhaven was not much different from other countries.“Richard, this is Grimhaven City. The Ninth Division’s Grimhaven City...” Lyonel said, standing beside Richard, his eyes filled with emotion.Richard pulled his gaze away and nodded, his eyes filled with both pleasure and a murderous intent.“This is Grimhaven City. I’ve gathered some information about this place while we were on our way here. In this City, the Dwayne Family is a middle-class family.”“The Dwayne Family... I’ve been looking forward to this. What methods

    As if knowing what was on the mind of the man in the black cloak and what he was about to say, Rhydian laughed cynically.“It doesn’t matter what Talyra was like five years ago; the important thing is that Richard must become part of the Ashbourne Family! Besides, that’s his problem. What does it have to do with me?”“As long as Richard can get into that family, when the time comes, someone will naturally take care of him!” Rhydian said with complete confidence and high assurance.After hearing everything Rhydian said, the man in the black cloak nodded slowly. Actually, this issue wasn’t difficult to handle.The Dwayne Family was a middle-class family in Grimhaven City, while the Ashbourne Family was just a lower-class family in the same city.Compared to the Dwayne Family, that family was two levels lower. Therefore, the Ashbourne Family would not dare reject this marriage proposal.Typically, families from a lower social status would never reject decisions made by families from a mi

    Rhydian looked at Albin with a truly shocked expression. He could only see the confidence in Albin’s eyes about his strategy.In truth, what Albin had planned was brilliant. However, Rhydian felt that Albin’s plan was completely unexpected.But what was the real reason behind the man’s unwavering certainty about what would happen next month?Even though Albin was known for his predictive abilities, Rhydian still had a slight doubt in his heart.Was it true that a great incident would happen next month? Would the Ashbourne family perish?What mistake had the Ashbourne family made for Albin to speak with such certainty that they would be destroyed?Because in Rhydian’s mind, it was impossible for any family to be wiped out without a significant wrongdoing on their part.Unless, of course, the family had committed such a grave mistake that it harmed many people. A family like that deserved to be eradicated!At first, Rhydian wanted to ask something. But the question that was on the tip o

  • Chapter 744: Conspiracy!  

    At its core, what Rhydian was worried about was the family behind Rosalinde and her three other siblings. He feared that their family would intervene.He knew just how powerful Ravenna and her three siblings were. Once they raised their hands, they could crush the internal organs of their enemies, often leading to death.Compared to Ravenna and her siblings, the Dwayne Family was no match for the four women.As for Drakarath city in Myrcathia country, Rhydian didn’t see the country as a threat at all. Although Myrcathia country was a strong nation, surpassing others, in the end, it was just an accessory to Division Nine.Moreover, the strong individuals from Myrcathia country would also be recruited into Division Nine. So, it could be said that the strongest people in Myrcathia country were not that many and could be counted on one hand.Even if Division Nine did recruit powerful individuals from Myrcathia country, there would only be one person, at most, who would be chosen.Seeing t

    Grimhaven City is a city of a lower tier, equivalent to a Level Three City in Myrcathia country. The status of the Dwayne Family in Grimhaven City was neither high nor low.Head of the family dreamed of raising the Dwayne Family to a higher level. He even thought of creating a puppet.“When will Richard arrive?”The head of the Dwayne Family sat in his grand chair in the living room. He stared at the old man in a black robe and asked in a cold voice.“Does he believe what you told him?”“Does he believe that the event from twenty-seven years ago was an accident?”The man in the black robe squinted his eyes, then nodded to the head of the Dwayne Family and said, “He should be on his way by now. Richard will definitely believe it.”“After all, Richard failed to investigate the secret from five years ago. Now, Richard has forgotten everything. Even his memories have been taken by Mr. Albin. Therefore, it is even more impossible for him to know anything.”“As long as we find the right rea
