In the office of the research laboratory….
Professor C, the Emperor, and the others were watching the surveillance footage of tthe fight between
James and the others against the Undead Warriors.
James‘ strength shocked the Emperor.
Professor C smiled. “Relax, man. So what if he’s regained his strength? He stands no chance. against
the Undead Warriors. Look, they are slowly being pushed back now. Although they are highly skilled,
they stand no chance.”
Seeing how powerful the Undead Warriors were, the Emperor sighed in relief.
He did not care how James managed to regain his strength. He just wanted him dead.
In the laboratory…
The battle raged on.
Death Dance was already injured. While she was lying on the floor, an Undead Warrior charged toward
her and tried to flatten her.
Seeing this, James immediately leaped toward the Undead Warrior and gave it a swirling kick imbued
with True Energy.
The Undead Warrior staggered and collapsed to the ground. However, it then got up almost.
immediately.
James swiftly helped Death Dance up.
Wiping the blood off her lips, Death Dance was thankful. “Thank you, James.”
James yelled, “What are you doing, Blake? I ordered you to retreat. Do you wish to see us all wiped out
here?”
The moment he fought against these creatures, he immediately knew how terrifying they were. If they
continued to remain here, they would surely be annihilated.
After yelling, he pushed Death Dance away, “Retreat!”
Everyone immediately dashed toward the exit.
The Undead Warriors pursued but were stopped by James who tried to buy time.
“Go find the Blithe King. Ask him to mobilize immediately and bombed this place into smithereens! We
can not allow these creatures to leave here alive!” James roared.
“But what about you, James?” Death Dance cried out.
James did not reply.
He leaped a few meters into the air. Then, he grabbed a handful of silver needles and sent them flying
with a wave of his hand.
The silver needles were much more powerful than bullets.
Although the needles pierced into the Undead Warriors‘ skin, their body structure had
undergone drastic changes. As such, the silver needles were not as effective as James expected. It did
not hinder their movement in the slightest.
“We should leave,” Blake ordered.
“But, what about James?”
Everyone was worried about James.
Blake said, “He’s a martial arts grandmaster who has cultivated True Energy. Even if he can’t defeat
them, it shouldn’t be difficult for him to escape. We should leave at once and find the Blithe King.”
“Understood.”
They nodded and swiftly left.
Seeing this, the Emperor immediately ordered, “They’re trying to escape, Professor C. We can’t let
them.”
Professor C smiled. “Don’t worry. None shall escape.”
Then, he took a black container out. In it was a centipede–like black bug with tons of antennas.
The Emperor asked puzzledly, “I–Is this the Gu King?”
Professor C said smilingly, “That’s right. The Gu King is the one issuing orders and controlling the
Undead Warriors all this while.”
