Chapter 820: Conquered
Translator: Abyssruler Editor: Lucas
“It would just be a matter of time that I would be killed because of you.”
“Hehe. To die because of a beautiful woman would be still worthwhile!” replied Huiyin. She had done research about the culture on Earth previously.
Wang Zheng almost fainted. “Don’t misuse idioms!”
The two of them made their wade through the warehouse and came to the research laboratory. Most of the living Zerg in the research laboratory were the most common kind. Their battle prowess was relatively low. Obviously there were also Zerg from the Abyss. It was just that these Zerg were harder to preserve. Zerg from the Abyss were extremely violent. Even if it was locked up, it would continue attacking till it died. One had to use various biological means to sedate it. Moreover, this had to be restricted to a few species.
What had surprised Wang Zheng was that the lights of the research laboratory were all switched on. It seemed that there was no intention for rest.
This time, even his interests were aroused. They moved past the surveillance and Wang Zheng and Lin Huiyin finally found a position. The employees inside were busy injecting a dark green liquid into Zerg after Zerg. Once injected, the Zerg immediately went berserk. After a second, it would explode into a pile of goo. Those Zerg that could last on become even more frustrated and clearly become much stronger.
What were they trying to do?
She had originally thought that the secret research would be interesting. However after seeing it, Huiyin realised that some things would be better off left to imagination. The two of them did not linger around and left quietly.
However, just when they turned around, they discover a dumbfounded worker staring at the two of them. His mouth was open and was ready to scream.
Just when Wang Zheng was about to strike, Huiyin, who was at the side snapped her fingers. The employee immediately froze.
Huiyin walked over and said to that employee, “You didn’t see anything.”
After which, she pulled Wang Zheng along and ran off. When they were close to the corner, she snapped her fingers again. The employee was stunned for a moment, shook his head, and left as though nothing had happened.
“Your Ability X is hypnosis?” asked Wang Zheng curiously.
“Shhhh, this is a secret!”
Looking at the playful looks of Lin Huiyin, Wang Zheng couldn’t help but pat her head. She’s really cute and had a mentally refreshing smartness. This was a girl that was just like a pixie.
However, Lin Huiyin had dodged away. “Don’t always pat my head or I won’t grow up.”
Wang Zheng was speechless and just laughed. “Adventure is over. It’s already so late. Let me send you back.”
“The dormitory must be closed. There’s no way of going back now.” Huiyin opened her fair hands and said helplessly.
“Use your ability!”
“My ability can’t be used indiscriminately!” said Lin Huiyin with a serious demeanour. “However if you don’t mind, I could actually hypnotise you.”
Wang Zheng immediately waved his hands. Let’s just forget about it. However with Lin Huiyin’s level of spiritual strength, it would still be difficult for her to hypnotise him.
The so-called “hypnotism” wasn’t extremely unique in the world of Ability X. It was just that abilities that could affect the mind of humans were considered to be stronger and there was a higher importance attached to it. The bloodline of the Aslan Royal Family was indeed extraordinary. This was still the first time that he learn about Huiyin’s ability.
“I want to stay at your place!” said Huiyin.
Wang Zheng was stunned. “No way!”.
“I would stay in a hotel then. I would also look for others to accompany me. Man...”
Nothing had to be spoken about what came next. Wang Zheng had been conquered. This brat seemed to have found a way to deal with him. This was complete wilfulness. However, Wang Zheng didn’t really dare to see if she really meant it. The incident with Lear today had truly scared him. He knew clearly what kind of person Lear was. Once he discovered any condition advantageous to him, he would be unscrupulous. Even when Wang Zheng had seen him as an opponent, he was still wary about him.
However Huiyin still returned in the end. The school semester had started. If the incident was blown up, she would likely to be summoned back by the royal family. This reason was still enough to scare Huiyin. She had a hard time gaining this freedom and she wouldn’t wish to go back.
Sometimes, he wouldn’t be afraid of people like Olivios. He even admired them with their overt approach with clear distinction between animosity and gratitude. Lear was definitely the kind that would harm you in imperceptible ways. As long as the situation wasn’t advantageous, he could endure it just like a tortoise and definitely would not allow you to find any excuse or weakness. Once he was in an advantageous position, he would have various methods to force or coerce his opponents.
Lie Xin was enraged and felt bottled up. Since Lie Guang’s death, the way he died had been appearing in her mind from time to time like a devil in her heart. So what if she had become stronger? There were so many strong people around. It’s difficult and tormenting and she wished to use battles to alleviate the feeling. The thought of wanting to become stronger had supported Lie Xin. However, what she faced was a failure. Moreover, she was helpless about it.
Lie Xin was drinking. However, she didn’t seem able to get drunk and her mind become even clearer.
She didn’t care about what was happening around and didn’t care about how Achilles handled things. However she had seen it herself. Although Achilles had great individual strength, he was no longer able to keep up with the pace of Lear after coming to the Elite Academy.
It didn’t matter if it was fair or not. Ability was ability. Lear had done it but Achilles had failed.
Wang Zheng...
Wang Zheng was very strong. If it was in the past, Lie Xin was very fond of his style. This was because the atmosphere was very joyous just like the days when she was with Lie Guang. However, Lie Guang was no longer around. Whenever she saw that kind of warm atmosphere and playfulness, she couldn’t help but feel that her heart was aching. She couldn’t bear it.
Another cup of hard liquor was swallowed down as though it was water.
At this moment, there was another cup of alcohol in front of Lie Xin.
In front of Lie Xin was someone that she didn’t want to see the most at this moment. Lear.
Lear didn’t say a word and only raised his own cup. Lie Xin didn’t pay attention to him but the alcohol still had to be drunk.
Lear also didn’t mind and just smiled. He finished the drink in a mouth.
The two of them continued drinking, cup after cup, one after another.
In just a short while, there were quite a number of cups in front of the two of them. Lie Xin snorted. “You have to use your Cultivation Technique to suppress the alcohol even while drinking. You are really pretentious.”
Lear smiled faintly. “Drinking too much alcohol is bad for the body. Moreover, there’s nothing bad about being pretentious. This could even make the world a more peaceful place.”
“What’s that matter? Are you here to show off just after winning a match? Do you believe that I would beat you to death?” said Lie Xin coldly.
Lear was still smiling and shook his head. “I’m not that bored. I’m here to invite you to join the Dynasty battle team.”
Lie Xin smiled as though she had heard the funniest joke. “Are you crazy? Don’t you know that I hate this kind of people the most?”
Lear took a sip of alcohol and continued,” It’s not important if you hate me or not. What you should know is that only the Dynasty battle team can allow you to live on and not let Lie Guang die in vain!”
Killing intent flashed across the eyes of Lie Xin. “Shut up!”
Lear didn’t mind. “Lie Flame Technique, the Lie family’s Cultivation Technique. It is truly magical. You must be filled with anger and regret now. The desire for power and a little bit of satisfaction was probably mixed within it causing you to feel conflicted or even hated yourself. Am I right?”
Lie Xin didn’t say a word and sat upright slowly while looking at Lear. “What do you really want?”
Lear smiled proudly. “I want to lead the Solar System to recovery. I have this ability but we would need more assistance. Why don’t we ally together? What Achilles wasn’t able to give you, I would be able to. As to how you see me, this isn’t important. The successor of the Lie Family shouldn’t be that childish. Since you have been unscrupulous, why not be a little more shameless? Obviously if you chose to bemoan your own fate and continue your degradation, I also wouldn’t stop you. At that time, I wouldn’t mind to stepping on you a few more times.”
Lie Xin gone silent for a while. “I can join you. However if what I want isn’t available at your side, I won’t be courteous with you.”
Lear smiled faintly. “There are no eternal allies, only eternal interests. Dealing with people like me should be the least of your concerns.”
Lie Xin still yielded in the end. Once the weakness in Lie Xin’s heart was discovered by Lear, Lear would have N number of methods to convince the other party. The advantage Wang Zheng had in attracting Lie Xin had become a disadvantage after Lie Guang died. It could even be considered as her piercing pain. This failure had made allowed her to see clearly about this point.
A smirk appeared at the side of Lear’s mouth and revealed satisfaction in his heart. Once upon a time, Achilles, Lie Xin and Lear had competed for such a long time and no one was convinced by any one. However in the end, Lie Xin still yielded. You could defeat someone but to make one who looked down on you previously yield to you, it truly required some moves.
At this point, Lie Xin smiled. “Lear, can I ask you a question?”
Lear was slightly stunned and smiled. “Don’t stand on ceremony. You are now a major piece of the Dynasty battle team.”
Lie Xie seemed extremely sexy and flirtatious as she asked,”Are you GAY?”
Seeing Lear’s dumbfounded look and anger, Lie Xin laughed heartily. “Captain Lear, you have to consider it carefully if you want me to join you.”
Lear’s anger dissipated quickly and shrugged his shoulders. “Come and report tomorrow. However, I would have to say the ugly things first. If you can’t keep up with the pace of the team, you would still be kicked out of it.”
Woman? Only the most perfect woman in the world was worthy of him!
