Dragon Raja 5; Chapter 139: Thunder and the Watcher (49)

Dragon Raja 5

That idiot only has the intelligence of a fifteen-year-old. He probably won’t consider the consequences of wearing that mask. It will summon gods and demons that are far more terrifying than immortals!

    ***

In the steam room, Susie lay quietly, recalling that somewhat comical life-and-death battle. With rare determination, she unleashed her full potential, only to find herself commanding a storm of metal like a queen one moment and being embraced by someone the next. Fortunately, the communication had been cut off, otherwise, that person would have been in great trouble.

The effect of the blood explosion was gradually fading, and the pain in the limbs became more and more obvious, coming in waves. Sometimes the pain was so severe that she almost fainted, and sometimes it was numb. However, just like what the opponent named Chu Zihang said, Susie remembered that Nuonuo called him like this, these injuries were not fatal, and with her bloodline, she would be healed in ten days or half a month.

He was a truly strange young man, ruthless and fussy. To prevent her from escaping, he even took the time to build her a cage. Rationally, Chu Zihang should have simply inflicted a few fatal wounds on her. Whether she survived was up to Susie’s luck, and Susie hadn’t held back from him anyway.

It was the same when they were in the warehouse. He set the fire without blinking, but he had already prepared the key for her to escape.

It’s so confusing… I feel strangely familiar with him, but I’ve only met him twice.

That guy was on his own in this boat. Had he lost contact with Lu Mingfei and Nuonuo? Crawling along the ventilation ducts—only a child would do that… He was childish in some ways and adult in others.

Susie was lost in thought when she suddenly heard the faint sound of machinery. It wasn’t surprising to hear machinery running in the steam room, but this subtle sound made Susie particularly alert. She had an inexplicable sense of foreboding and turned around with difficulty to look for the source of the sound.

Directly above her head, a red dot of light flashed steadily at a frequency of about once per second.

It was undoubtedly a camera. This ship was involved in illegal activities, so they had spent considerable money installing cameras so that Captain Alyev could monitor the entire ship from his cabin. Susie’s first action upon boarding the ship was to take control of the entire surveillance system and transmit the images to Lancelot in real time via satellite. That’s why Lancelot spoke to the crow so calmly, rather than rushing over. Because everything was under control. However, before the bloodbath began, Susie severed communication with Lancelot—not just the voice signal, but also the video signal. Lancelot had no knowledge of the battle between her and Chu Zihang, but he must have been furious. In this case, he would have hacked into the ship’s system and regained control of the surveillance system.

The cameras in the steam room had all been destroyed by the airflow caused by Jun Yan’s explosion, but the cameras in the cabin on the upper level were still working. At this time, Lancelot should be observing Susie through that camera.

Susie knew better than anyone what Lancelot would do after seeing her in this state.

    ***

“Inject the serum to all immortals.” Lancelot stared at the monitor. When he said this, his voice was very soft, revealing a solemn murderous aura, as if it was some kind of killing spell.

“After the serum was injected, even we couldn’t clean up the situation.” Gonzalez reminded cautiously, looking at the commissioners around him, hoping that someone would join him in persuading Lancelot.

As the person in charge of this operation, Lancelot did have the right to do so, but it was very likely that Lancelot’s decision was made out of anger. This man who had always been calm could no longer hold his psychological defenses.

And once this operation is carried out, that ship… will turn into hell, right?

“To be able to injure Susie to this extent, there may be two Dragon King-level targets on that ship. In this case, we must prepare for the worst!” Lancelot patted the box on his back. Everyone knew what was inside the box. “As for cleaning up the mess, it’s my job!”

“Understood, please repeat the order.” Gonzalez knew that no amount of persuasion would be of any use.

“Repeat the order, inject all immortals with the Dragon King serum.”

    ***

A few seconds later, all the immortals heard a faint sound from the back of their heads, similar to the sound Susie heard, like some kind of micro-machine running. But they turned around alertly, but did not find any target. The faint sound of the machine running was still behind their heads.

Of course they couldn’t see it, because the sound came from a device around their necks. That collar-like device was inserting a needle into the back of their necks and injecting red liquid into their bodies.

After a few seconds of silence, all the immortals raised their heads and roared silently towards the sky, as if demons were burning in the flames of hell. The red liquid was burning away the last bit of their human will, while injecting unparalleled power and brutality into their bodies.

Extracting dragon blood from the corpse of the Dragon King and then refining the serum with the dragon blood is not only a holy medicine coveted by alchemists, but also a bone-eroding poison!

“Lancelot! Lancelot!” Susie exclaimed.

She yelled a few times before remembering she had cut off the communication herself. But even if she could still move, there was no way she could call Lancelot. When Chu Zihang hit her hard, the communication device hanging behind her ear also fell off. Chu Zihang followed up with a kick and crushed it to pieces when it landed – he certainly didn’t want Susie to be able to call for help.
