Chapter 243 - One Punch!
Chapter 243: One Punch!
However, when these chains hit the robot again, they were not repelled by the inertia.
Instead, they were firmly attached to the other party’s body!
“Is this a water element!?”
Miles did not seem to have guessed the sudden change in the Battle Beast’s attributes!
After these chains attached to him and the Mana Armor, they immediately turned into a pool of molten iron!
Moreover, the harder he struggled, the heavier and denser the molten iron became!
“Hahaha! This is my ultimate skill, Molten Swamp!” The man laughed arrogantly.
“D*mn it!”
Just like his own Battle Beast, Miles’ body could not withstand the pressure of the molten iron and collapsed to the ground!
He could not even use the ring to call for reinforcements because he could not raise his arms at all!
“Looks like I won’t be able to wait for my master to come over! Go to hell!”
After saying that, the caretaker called back a few of the chains that had bound Belinda as he prepared to finish off Miles!
“Bang!”
While he was feeling pleased, a young man wearing flip-flops and holding milk tea kicked open the apartment door!
“Is it that troublesome just to get a photo?”
Locke was a little impatient because there were a lot of mosquitoes outside. He wanted to return to the hotel.
However, Miles and the others were taking their time!
There was no one nearby, so Locke simply barged into the apartment.
“Another impolite guy! Did I agree to let you in?”
The caretaker’s eyes were cloudy as he looked in the direction of Locke downstairs. His mana surged and the three iron chains quickly approached him along the ceiling and walls like snakes!
Due to the poor lighting, Belinda, who was hanging in the air, suspected that Locke had not noticed, so she immediately shouted, “Locke! Be careful of this guy’s chains! They’re water-type and iron-type!”
“Who cares what type they are…” After drinking a mouthful of milk tea, Locke immediately summoned the Twin-headed White Jade Snake!
Using the skill Spatial Movement, Locke arrived on the second floor and had just happened to dodge the strikes of the three iron chains!
“Do you think this is the end?” The man knew that this fellow’s strength was not ordinary, so he immediately summoned seven or eight iron chains from Belinda’s side and once again attacked Locke!
However, what he did was futile.
Under the Twin-headed White Jade Snake’s skill, his iron chain attacks were full of vigor but he could not touch the other party at all! Not to mention the man had used the final skill Molten Swamp!
After a flash, Locke suddenly appeared behind the caretaker!
After clenching his fist, Locke struck the opponent’s waist!
“Crack…”
The sound of bones breaking could be heard on the second floor.
Then, there was a burst of miserable screams!
“Ah…!”
The caretaker’s body did not seem to be in good condition to begin with. In addition to this fatal blow, he was considered done for.
After the man wailed for a while, he fell to the ground and spat out white foam. Then, his screams gradually became softer.
Due to the dissipation of the man’s mana, Belinda and Miles had broken free from the iron chains as well.
Then, Miles came up to check the caretaker’s breathing but it was too late.
“Dead…”
He originally wanted to obtain more useful information but he did not expect Locke’s own strength to be so great!
Had Locke killed this man with one punch?!
Miles looked at Locke, who was still drinking milk tea, and swallowed his saliva. He was a little afraid.
In the beginning, when Secretary Peter brought this kid here, Miles did not take him seriously. Now, he could see the rumored terrifying strength of the other party.
“Let’s retreat first! Don’t let Deborah find out what had happened!”
However, Miles still remained calm because there was still the “underwater fortress” that he had not figured out. So, he left with Belinda.
Locke drank his milk tea and stepped out with his flip-flops. He did not forget to close the door before leaving.
Deborah arrived 15 minutes later.
For these experienced agents, this amount of time was enough for them to escape without leaving a trace.
“Secretary Deborah, the photos in the computer are gone. Ralph can’t be saved either…”
The “Ralph” mentioned by one of her subordinates was the cloudy-eyed caretaker.
The two pieces of bad news did not make Deborah feel uncomfortable.
Ralph was a criminal so she did not feel sorry for such a scum.
She just spent some money to let him watch the door.
As for the photo, she did not care at all because she had prepared for the worst case scenario.
As long as she was willing, no one could make the photos disappear completely.
After looking at the traces of the scene, a smile appeared on Deborah’s face. She said, “It looks like there are more than one person. Could it be that the crown prince sent people to target me?”
At this moment, she could not help but suspect Mr. Casey.
After all, he was the only one who had been to the apartment recently.
However, Deborah felt that something was not right! This was because her “remote control poison” was not a joke. It could take a person’s life at any moment.
Why would a businessman like Casey take the risk of being discovered to retrieve the photo?
Was not he afraid of losing his life?
“That guy’s life is in my hands. He definitely wouldn’t dare to do this! Perhaps… There’s someone else.”
Deborah thought for a moment and chose to believe her own judgment. After all, this was a logical reasoning.
“Tell everyone to spread the news in Water City. If they find any suspicious targets, capture them immediately! We must not affect the election that starts tomorrow!”
…
The few of them came to a hidden place in the suburbs.
“Locke, you shouldn’t have attacked just now. There’s a risk of being exposed.”
Miles’ words seemed to be a little ungrateful.
Everyone knew that he was doing this for official business, so that Locke could learn more.
“Don’t worry, I’ve eaten the poison she gave me, so she won’t suspect me…”
Regarding this point, Locke had already figured it out before the reinforcements arrived. The other party thought that they had something on him, but they were wrong.
“What poison?” Belinda turned pale with fright and quickly grabbed Locke’s hand.
Without waiting for the other two to speak, Locke explained, “Don’t worry, it’s fine. The poison has no effect on me. She’ll look for me again.”
Seeing that Locke was so confident, Miles heaved a sigh of relief. It was Belinda’s performance in the apartment that caught his attention. He turned to look at her and asked, “Belinda, what happened earlier? Why are you so distracted?”
Lowering her head, Belinda said in a low voice, “I… I found my sister…”
“Ah? You have a sister? Isn’t she an orphan?” Sean asked curiously.
“She… She’s not really my sister. She’s also an orphan. We grew up together under Master’s care…”
Belinda’s words caught Locke’s attention.
She was equally beautiful. She was also proficient in picking locks.
Could it be?
After taking out the photo in her arms, Belinda continued. “This… This is my sister and Master…”
Locke looked at it seriously and the other two were also very surprised!
Was not the black-haired woman in this photo the true mastermind behind the Undead Legion’s Chamber of Commerce, Deborah?
