Female Novel
Chapter 818
“Hahaha…”
Seeing this, the Emperor cackled.
The others relaxed. They could finally rest at ease.
This was James, after all. A grandmaster of the martial arts who managed to annihilate all Undead
Warriors by himself.
The Emperor laughed and tossed the unconscious Tiara aside, while the others looked at each other
with delighted smiles.
At that moment, James reached for his back. Grabbing a handful of silver needles, he flicked his wrist.
The silver needles struck its targets. Some were dead, while others were immobilized.
Even the Emperor’s chest was pierced by a silver needle. Wearing a horrified expression, he pointed at
James with his eyes bulging. “Y-You…”
James immediately leaped toward the Emperor and gave him a powerful kick which sent him flying.
Then, he hurriedly reached for Tiara.
At that moment, however, Professor C, who was lying on the ground immediately leaped to his feet and
grabbed the Emperor. Then, dragging the Emperor, he swiftly retreated deep into the research
laboratory.
James picked Tiara up.
By the time he realized that the Emperor was gone, Professor C had dragged the Emperor deep into
the laboratory. He tried to pursue them, but a door immediately blocked the passageway.
“Damn it!” James cursed.
However, he chose not to pursue them. Instead, she grabbed Tiara’s hand and took her pulse.
After diagnosing her situation, James breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Tiara was badly tortured and her pulse was weak, she was not in mortal danger.
James walked over to the sealed iron door and pushed it, but it did not budge.
He frowned and murmured, “The Emperor was struck in the chest. Even if he escapes, he can’t live for
long. Plus, Blake told me that this place only has a single exit.”
Once he remembered this, James did not pursue the Emperor further. Instead, carrying Tiara in his
arms, he headed toward the exit.
Soon, they were out of the research laboratory.
Outside…
Blake and the Elite Eight were waiting anxiously. Seeing that James was carrying a bloodied woman in
his arms, they breathed a sigh of relief.
“Is everything alright, James?”
“How is Tiara?”
James shook her head and said, “She’s fine for now. Are you sure that the laboratory only has a single
exit?”
Blake nodded. “After exploring the area, this is the only exit we could find. Maybe there are some
others that we didn’t manage to discover. What happened inside?”
James said, “I almost killed the Emperor, but he was saved by someone. That guy must have activated
some mechanism that blocked my path. I couldn’t pursue them further. The Emperor was struck in the
chest by my silver needle, but he’s surrounded by weird people. I’m worried that they might be able to
save him.”
He pulled out his phone and called the Blithe King. “You can mobilize now.”
“James, I wish I could. However, the laboratory was approved by the state. If I mobilize, and things go
way out of proportion, I could lose my position as the commander-in-chief.”
James said, “The Emperor is gravely injured. He might even die. However, he was saved by someone
who dragged him further into the laboratory. Besides, I already got my hands on the laboratory’s
research data. It should be enough to make him lose his position.”
Hearing this, the Blithe King was relieved.
“Alright then, I will mobilize at once.”
James and the others did not leave. Instead, they guarded the exit.
Ten minutes later…
Rumble!
An explosion could be heard from inside the laboratory.
Then, the earth shook.
James’ face darkened. He cried out, “Retreat! We have an explosion incoming!”novelbin
