"What... what?" Apart from Zhang nglong and his three companions, everyone else was stunned. The Immortal Pill had been eaten by a dog? That was a treasure worth billions of Euros, and it was the only one of its kind in the world, absolutely unique!
Even if they had managed to bring the Immortal Pill back to their own country, the selection process to decide who would consu it would have undoubtedly been stringent and thorough.
Such an important and valuable item, eaten by a dog?
"This is impossible!" Schelles exclaid. "You expect us to believe that sothing worth hundreds of billions of Euros was eaten by a dog? Do you think we are all idiots?"
"It was an accident!" Rembering yesterday's events, Zhang nglong couldn't help but feel a mix of laughter and tears. "I swear, the pill really was eaten by that dog, and if I tell a single lie, I'll stand on my head and wash my hair right here!"
"Schelles, this guy is full of lies, just kill him!" said a Mutant from so unknown country. His complexion was pale and he was thin, bearing a certain resemblance to the vampire-like figures from Europe.
"I'm telling the truth, if you don't believe , ask them!" Zhang nglong pointed at Wang Ling and his group.
All eyes suddenly turned toward Wang Ling.
Wang Ling inwardly cursed Zhang nglong's ancestors for bringing attention to him in the presence of these creatures, these monsters! How could Zhang nglong be so heartless?
What baffled Wang Ling even more was how Zhang nglong could remain calm in this unbelievable situation, and even dare toss Gold Coins at them. Was this so kind of charity, treating them as perforrs of so circus act?
Moreover, when had Zhang nglong secretly prepared those Gold Coins? Why hadn't he realized it?
"He said the Immortal Pill really was eaten by this dog?" Schelles asked Wang Ling.
Pressed by Schelles's intense scrutiny, Wang Ling nodded. "Damn, had I known sothing like this would happen, I would have slipped away right after the auction ended!"
"Schelles!" The Derman man with glasses, holding a strange device, interjected, "There's no energy trace of the Immortal Pill on him, the item might really not be with him!"
"Damn it!" Schelles cursed angrily.
"Not necessarily!" another said, "The Huaxia are full of tricks; if you guys can invent a device that detects energy waves, they might as well figure out a way to hide energy signals!"
"Right, let's just kill them all, we'll search the ship slowly afterwards!"
"Huaxia people, I'm giving you one last chance!" Schelles turned to Zhang nglong, knowing that if they did decide to kill Zhang nglong, looking for an Immortal Pill the size of a tiny speck on a hundreds of ters long Destroyer was practically implausible.
"Wow, I'm losing my mind here, I keep telling you it was eaten by a dog and you just won't believe it!" Zhang nglong showed a frustrated expression, "Also, what about the job offer I made you to be my chef? If $20 million a year isn't enough, I could consider upping it to $30 million. But from now on, if I want to eat sugarcane, you'll have to peel it for !"
"Huaxia kid, you're seeking death!"
Although Schelles did not hold a very high position in their Superhuman alliance, to ordinary people, they were akin to gods. When had Schelles ever been ridiculed by a commoner like this?
Zhang nglong hadn't shown the slightest sign of reverence towards them from the beginning to the end, pushing Schelles's fury to the peak!
"Then I'll kill your friend first, then you!" Schelles finally revealed his murderous intent, the air around him compressing as if squeezed by an invisible force, creating invisible blades all around, which were imperceptible to the eye yet could be faintly felt by the surrounding Mutants as a light stinging in the air.
The invisible blades instantly slashed towards Wang Ling and his companion, genuinely intending to strike a fatal blow!
As the Wind Blade crossed the steel-forged deck, it effortlessly tore it apart, and Wang Ling and his companion hardly had ti to realize their dire situation before they were about to be split in two.
However, the crack on the deck stopped less than a ter in front of Wang Ling, as if it had been blocked by sothing.
At this mont, Zhang nglong and Wang Ling noticed the crack on the ground, and Wang Ling's back was instantly soaked with sweat.
"Goodness, they really start killing without a word!" Zhang nglong also realized the ferocity of these people for the first ti. If it wasn't for Ye Yin, at this mont, Wang Ling and his girlfriend would probably have been dead and scattered!
"Are these people really allowed to kill indiscriminately?" Zhang nglong felt a chill in his heart.
"Mr. Zhang, for these people, human life is sothing cheap," Ye Yin's voice sounded on the deck, his figure appearing in front of Zhang nglong like a ghost, "As long as they act cleanly and don't cause widespread panic, they can do anything!"
Wang Ling took a couple of steps back, his instincts told him that this youth, who appeared to be about his age, seed more terrifying than those monsters.
"Who are you?" Xiel's eyes narrowed into slits, "Are you an Awakener from Huaxia or an Ancient Martial Artist?"
"No! It must be an Awakener!" Xiel quickly reached a conclusion. The Ancient Martial Artists from Huaxia start practicing from childhood and it takes them until their fifties or sixties to achieve anything. If he were an Ancient Martial Artist, Ye Yin at his age would at best be a Level Two or Three Ancient Martial Artist.
To block his Wind Blade just now, without Level Five strength or higher, it is simply impossible. Only an Awakener, born with unique talents, could possibly have such ability.
But Ye Yin did not speak; he was actually a very quiet person who, besides Zhang nglong and those associated with him, could not be bothered to give anyone else even a second glance!
"Be careful, this Awakener from Huaxia is tricky!"
"Ye Yin, go, slap him twice for !" Zhang nglong directed at Xiel.
"Yes, Mr. Zhang!"
Ye Yin's body disappeared in an instant, and only two crisp sounds were heard, Xiel's face now sported two bright red handprints.
Monts later, Ye Yin returned to his original spot, the entire process taking less than a second.
"Pfft!" Xiel spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with broken teeth, his face marked by two bright red handprints, and his expression was one of deep shock.
He had not seen Ye Yin's movents at all just now, let alone reacting to them. Could his power possibly surpass that of a Level Nine super Awakener?
Xiel had not t the three super Awakeners from Huaxia, but he had seen their pictures, and definitely, they weren't the young man before him.
"Could this be a hidden master from Huaxia?" Xiel also considered a terrifying possibility, "Or perhaps, is this a person trained by the Zhang nglong family themselves?"
"No! Impossible!" Xiel imdiately rejected the idea. To train an Awakener surpassing Level Nine? Even their entire nation of Arica couldn't achieve that!
Even though Zhang nglong is as rich as a country and has endless money, so things simply cannot be accomplished with money.
Their Arican efforts in developing Mutants involved drugs that cost trillions of US dollars to develop; no matter how wealthy a magnate is, he couldn't possibly compete with a country in terms of scientific research power, could he?
"Zhang nglong, just who is he?" At this ti, Wang Ling had slightly recovered from his shock, and it seed the sudden appearance of this young man was quite impressive.
Zhang nglong smiled at Wang Ling, "This is my personal bodyguard. Impressive, right? But he's still the weakest in our family."
