The Secret Successor CHAPTER 554
Regan initially got the better of Roman, but then the toll of using the hacking system was too much on his old, sick body. He began to cough in the middle of the fight, and this gave plenty of opportunities for Roman to land some good blows on Regan and break his bones.But what astonished Roman was that Regan still tried to stand and fight.Roman frowned. “I don’t get it. What’s making you fight so hard?”“You wouldn’t understand it even if I tell you,” Regan used his hacking system again to put pressure on Roman’s mind, giving him an immense headache.Roman screamed like he never did before. It was humiliating for him that he was being hurt like this by a mere old man when Roman had the history of beating elephants single-handedly.Regan couldn’t use his skill for longer than three seconds now. And then he was down on his knees, bleeding from his nose. His sight also turned blurry.Roman recovered quickly and got back up. “I don’t know how you are messing with me, but this ends now

When the clones received the alert, they all rushed toward the location where Roman was, but not all of them rushed to the exact location where he was. Some of them spread out all around the island, and some began to take strategic locations, whereas some others began to climb the castle in order to protect it from outside threats.They were all doing as per the protocol.However, when the clones climbing the castle heard Elsin’s voice, they sent a message to Roman who was fighting David with the clones on his side.Roman immediately ordered the clones to save his son at all costs.And so more than two thousand clones hurriedly climbed down the castle and rushed at Russell.“Shit.” Russell ran back into the cafeteria and took the elevator and went underground.“You better leave me alone,” Elsin was sadistically laughing, “or you have no chances of escaping from this place.”“I’m not letting you go until I leave this island,” Russell told him, “so shut your mouth!”When the elevator op

Regan was still in the laboratory room where he had fought Roman. He was still catching his breath and trying to recover, but it wasn’t proving easy because his ribs were broken. Just breathing was proving difficult to him. Even though the hacking system kept assuring him that he wouldn't die, he didn’t know if he’d die in a few seconds or not.“Can’t we do something about the clones?” Regan asked.[Not with your body like this. If we try to hack their central system, they will fight back, and I will be forced to use your mental strength. Then you'll likely get another stroke.]“Dammit,” Regan gritted his teeth. “If only I was at least ten years younger…” he was trying to walk out of the room despite being in immense pain.Just then, two clones arrived at the room and restrained Regan by electrocuting by just merely touching his body.Meanwhile, Liam’s fight with the cyborg woman got more intense.Liam now suffered many cuts and bruises.He got the bruises from her punches and kicks,

“If you didn’t get captured, then you came here out of your own volition? Why?” Liam asked Regan.Regan just didn’t have the strength to keep talking while his whole body was aching. He fell to his knees.“Hey! Don’t die on me, you geezer!” Liam lowered himself and tried to help.“It is touching to see two hardcore rivals care for one another,” Roman smirked. “But I’m just not in the mood for watching soap-opera right now. So, I will have both of you beaten to a pulp. No, let’s make that three.” He tossed David into their midst with one hand, showcasing his superhuman strength.Liam still wanted to fight him, but he was surrounded by hundreds of clones, so if he were to jump forward, they’d all jump at him.“Now then, time to flatten your faces,” Roman clapped his hands.All the clones jumped at Liam, Regan, and David from every direction in a very synchronized manner so that they didn’t collide with one another.Just then, Roman received an alert message.*An intruder has entered the

All the monster cyborgs were onto Russell. They weren’t big monsters but they definitely looked powerful and intimidating.Russell was not foolish enough to fight them. He immediately ran and pointed the gun at Roman and said, “Stop, or I’ll shoot him!”The monster cyborgs stopped.“You fools! I’m a hologram. I can’t die even if he shoots!” Roman shouted. “So, kill him!”“Move a muscle, and your boss is dead!” Russell warned the cyborgs once again, and they looked confused. They could not decide if they should attack Russell as per the leader’s orders or prioritize the leader’s safety, so they stayed right where they were.Roman’s hologram gritted his teeth. “These fucking idiots…” The monster cyborgs were not made to be as advanced and complex as the human cyborgs on purpose, but Roman never expected he’d come across a conundrum like this.Just then, Elsin stopped typing.“Is it done?” Russell asked him.“Oh, it’s done,” Elsin smiled. One of the servers' doors opened, and a human cyb

In the private jet, Roddick hesitantly came out of the bathroom and looked around. He couldn’t see any clones, inside the jet or outside.“Where did they all go?”He thought he was going to get caught by them because a couple of them entered the jet and began to check everything. However, they suddenly left in a rush.Otherwise, he would have had to definitely fight them.“I don’t know what happened, but something or someone definitely helped me,” Roddick thought. “I can’t be here for long. I should look for a better place to hide. And this Payseur family is much more dangerous than I thought. These clones were not human. They seem like superhumans given how fast they were operating. I came here without taking that into account. Taking over the Payseur is not something that I can do alone. I have to plan for it and strike it at the right time. Though this is a good time where I can use the chaos to my advantage, I didn’t bring any forces with me. I don’t want to risk my life against t

As the fight between Roman and his clone became more intense, Roman heard a gunshot.When he looked toward the source of the sound, he saw a bullet flying through his son’s head, and his blood splattering all over the computers behind him.“ELSIN!” Roman shouted.That momentary loss of concentration helped Roman’s clone dig his hand straight into Roman’s stomach. Still, Roman didn’t go down. He continued fighting his clone.It didn’t look like a fight between humans. Both of them were moving very fast, and Russell couldn’t even see their hand movements.Russell did think of trying to land a sneak attack with a bullet or two on Roman’s head just to make sure he killed the real enemy, but he wasn’t sure if the bullet would actually hit Roman or the clone. He had no idea why the clone was fighting Roman, but he didn’t want to mess with the things when things were clearing working in his favor.Russell got up and ran out of the server room, and it wasn’t easy, because the floor was full o

Just as Regan whispered to Russell and Liam, they heard a loud noise coming from inside the bathroom. It was loud enough to startle everyone. Regan even flinched and stepped back.Russell and Liam quickly came over and took out their guns. Liam used one hand to open the door. All he saw was a hole in the floor inside the bathroom.“Who could punch their way through the floor?” Russell looked shocked. “It must be one of those clones.”Liam rushed out of the plane and looked under the plane. There was a hole at the bottom, but he couldn’t find anyone, even though he looked in every direction.Russell also came out. “Did you see them?”“No, I think they ran away,” Liam said, “but… we can’t use this jet anymore.”“We can use the plane I came in,” Russell said. “It’s parked not far from here.”“Let’s go there then. It’s not safe for us to be here longer, so let’s hurry.”Soon, all three of them abandoned this private jet and headed to another one. Roddick was watching them from afar.Roddi
