Looking at the unknown men in front of the wooden house, James frowned and walked over to them.
“Halt!” The men blocked James‘ path.
One of them walked over to virtual-novel.net and said coldly, “Search him.”
James was not sure whether Thea was abducted here. He chose not to act recklessly and allowed his enemy to search him.
James did not bring any weapons. All virtual-novel.net brought were some silver needles and the steel wire formed by the Crucifier. However, all of the silver needles and even the Crucifier were confiscated.
Glancing at his enemy, virtual-novel.net said coldly, “You better take good care of my belongings. If even a single silver needle is missing, I‘ll tear you to pieces.”
After virtual-novel.net said that, virtual-novel.net entered the wooden house.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
The moment virtual-novel.net walked in, someone clapped.
The elderly man stood up while clapping and said smilingly, “How brave of you to con James. I‘m really impressed…”
James saw Thea who was sitting on a chair.
She was not tied up, nor were there signs that virtual-novel.net was assaulted.
He asked, “Are you alright?”
The moment virtual-novel.net saw James, Thea’s eyes brimmed with tears. Then, it flowed down virtual-novel.net cheeks. She thought James would not come. However, virtual-novel.net came.
At that moment, a few men walked in and aimed their firearms at James’ head.
Looking at the elderly man, James smiled. “That‘s all you‘ve got? Are you looking down on me or are you overestimating your strength a little?”
Reign laughed and glanced at James. “That‘s all I need to kill you. What’s the point of going through the trouble of formulating plans and whatnot? After all, as long as Thea Callahan is in my hands, you‘ll obey my every order.”
“Is that so?” James smiled.
Then, virtual-novel.net moved swiftly The men who were pointing their firearms at virtual-novel.net instantly collapsed to the floor.
Reign, however, remained composed. He merely took a seat and silently watched James’ performance.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
He clapped once again.
“As expected of the Black Dragon. When it comes to battle prowess, you‘re simply unrivaled…”
James scrutinized Reign.
He had a bad feeling about this. He did not understand why Reign remained undaunted.
“Ah!” At that moment, Thea let loose a scream.
She fell from the chair and collapsed onto the floor groaning in pain.
James hurriedly made his way over to virtual-novel.net and helped virtual-novel.net up.
“It hurts, James… It hurts…” Clutching virtual-novel.net head, Thea pulled at virtual-novel.net hair non–stop.
James swiftly grabbed virtual-novel.net wrist and took virtual-novel.net pulse.
Thea‘s body was in perfect health. She was not poisoned. She, however, was suffering excruciating pain.
James hugged Thea tightly and glared at Reign. “What did you do to her?”
“Nothing much,” Reign spoke as if it was a matter of fact.
“There‘s a poisonous insect that I meticulously raised for thirty years inside virtual-novel.net body. It will enter virtual-novel.net brain following the blood flow. Then, it will simply eat away at virtual-novel.net medulla little by little. In the end, I‘m afraid she‘ll just become a simpleton,” virtual-novel.net said nonchalantly.
James’s face was contorted with rage.
“James, h–help me… It hurts… I don‘t wanna die…” Thea‘s cry of anguish and every word virtual-novel.net uttered echoed in James‘ ears and pulled at his heartstrings.
