CHAPTER 141
Jeffery watched Daniel as he stood up from his chair. The middle-aged man straightened his black suit, the joyous smile still on his face. He was really happy.He wanted to wipe that smile off the man's face but he couldn't do so. He was still suffering from the abilities of the other advanced alchemist. It would take him more than just getting angry to break out of that effect.For now he remained seated, bound by metal straps to an iron chair. Although he was still affected by the advanced alchemist's abilities, they still too precautionary measures.And because of this he wouldn't be able to escape quickly if he want to. Since he couldn't rely on his elemental abilities right now due to his weak mind, there was nothing he could do. His physical condition wouldn't help him in any way. It was too weak."Jeffery Flamel, I never thought you'd be an alchemist yourself," Daniel said. "I always thought you were another random unlicensed pharmacist."Jeffery didn't say anything. He didn't
CHAPTER 142
Dantes pried into Jeffery's soul. It was very vast and boundless like space, twirling slowly. Glowing Qi flowed in abundance, pulled from somewhere beyond into his soul. Jeffery didn't just have the ability of manipulating the elements. He could also absorb them.And this was why he had been able to recover all of a sudden. This was why he had been able to resist Dantes' abilities, shrugging off the remaining effects on him.It wasn't just his ability to absorb external Qi. It was his will—it was vast and boundless. It was unbendable and unbreakable. His will was the reason he was suddenly able to recover himself.And this will would have crushed Dantes instantly if the man hadn't been an advanced level alchemist as well. Not only was he an advanced alchemist but his will was also very vast. It was at least equal to Jeffery's will.So he projected his own will, causing it to burst forth. His aura surged, a domineering presence filling the entire factory. The old building trembled, una
CHAPTER 143
Several minutes passed and the two advanced alchemists were still fighting. Their battle left more destruction in their wake. And just like the factory suffered under the clash, their bodies experienced the same as well.Jeffery struck Dantes' face with a tremendous force. The advanced alchemist was quick and moved his face in a flash. He watched as the punch swept past his face, a gust of wind whooshing past.Dantes instantly skidded backwards to keep a space between him and Jeffery. This time Jeffery didn't attack. He paused and watched Dantes.He's very powerful, he thought within himself as he caught his breath. I can't defeat him with just combat...As he was thinking within himself Dantes was also observing him. The advanced alchemist's eyes followed him for some moments."You're really impressive," Dantes finally said. "I never thought you'd be able to match me in terms of combat..."Jeffery didn't say anything. He was not going to engage Dantes in any conversation again. He wa
CHAPTER 144
Dan Kimiko's eyes narrowed as he steadied himself, his fists still tingling from the impact. The ground beneath him cracked like spiderwebs, spreading like bacteria.Although the assassin was an alchemist he was surprisingly strong. Alchemists were not supposed to be physically strong except they augmented themselves with their abilities. Even if the assassin was an advanced level cultivator, he shouldn't have been able to deliver such an impactful punch.Only Jeffery Flamel had caused him to change his view about alchemists. And now that this assassin had showed the same physical prowess, he was baffled. Perhaps this ma was doing the same as well—using his abilities to augment himself.The assassin smirked, almost imperceptibly, and moved forward. His steps were silent, her each one carried a weight that threatened to crush anything beneath it."You're late," he said, his voice low, cold and unyielding.Let's see about that, Kimiko thought within himself. But he didn't respond. Just
CHAPTER 145
"No!" Dan Kimiko yelled the moment the assassin vanished from his sight. He instantly knew who the advanced alchemist was going to strike next.After all, he had also seen Mark and Rita trying to escape. He had been engaging the assassin to keep him occupied. Who would have thought that he possessed the ability to teleport?I can't let anything happen to Rita Stirling! he thought within himself as he instantly kicked into action. Not under my watch!His eyes blazed as he suddenly raised both hands. His fingers splayed wide, and the ground quaked violently under the surge of his alchemical power. The marble concrete beneath them cracked and splintered as the ground itself responded to his will.In an instant, a massive wall of solid stone erupted from the ground, shooting up to shield Rita and Mark from the assassin's next strike. Dust filled the air, the sound of cracking rock travelling beyond the manor's vicinity."What?" the assassin's pupils dilated. He had thought that Kimiko was
CHAPTER 146
The factory shook like a dying beast as the two advanced alchemists pushed themselves past their limits. Flames devoured shattered beams, torrents of winds howled through fractured wells, and streaks of lightning scarred the broken ceiling. The ground itwelr buckled beneath the fury of their clash, risky and collapsing in uneven waves."Die!" Dantes kept on yelling as they fought, his eyes burning with fury—and perhaps shock. He hadn't expected Jeffery to last this long in the battle.Never in his entire life had he found someone who could fight him to a standstill. It was a very big shock to him. And this was why he wanted to battle to end so quick. He wasn't like Jeffery—he couldn't absorb Qi from the environment.But what he wanted was different from what reality presented. With each second that passed, Jeffery proved to be more powerful. And he was very resilient too.If he wanted to win the battle he had to do more. He had to push himself more. And also, he didn't just have to fi
CHAPTER 147
The smoke thinned gradually, settling over the wreckage of the ruined factory. Jeffery lay still for several moments, catching his breath, the taste of blood still hot in his mouth. His body trembled with exhaustion, but his will refused to break. With a grunt, he forced himself upright, staggering to his feet.At least he had recovered to some degree now. Even if he was not fully powerful, he was only twenty percent away from it.Then he heard it—among the rubble. A weak cough broke the silence.Daniel, his eyes flashed with animosity.The middle-aged man stirred from unconsciousness, his eyes fluttering open. He groaned, trying to push himself up on trembling arms. But he couldn't. They were like jelly.Then his gaze lifted and landed on Jeffery. The colour drained from his face instantly as if he had seen a ghost. He also saw the lifeless body of Dantes—the advanced alchemist who was supposed to be his trump card—and terror seized him."How..." Daniel stammered, his voice shaking.
CHAPTER 148
Jeffery flashed across the highway as he made his way towards the Stirling family manor. Right now he was on his way to rescue Rita Stirling from whatever danger that she was in.His body moved in blur, phasing in and out of existence as he dodged every vehicle on the road. As a an advanced alchemist he was able to manipulate the air molecules, giving himself zero resistance as he ran.I need to get there really fast, he thought within himself. If I don't get there on time then Rita will die. And her blood will be on my head.He didn't want that to happen so he poured every Qi in his body into movement. He made it circulate from his Dantian to his meridians. Then he moved it throughout his entire body to achieve a physical condition he had never achieved before.As a result of this his speed doubled, making him become faster than he normal was. If before he could dodge bullets, now he could outrun a bullet. The world seemed to slow down around him.Well, it wasn't actually slowing dow
CHAPTER 149
The air was thick with smoke, dust, and the copper tang of blood. The ruined courtyard of the Stirling manor seemed to hold its breath, as if the earth itself was terrified of what would happen next. Sparks of fire crackled against toppled stone, an ominous feeling stretching like claws around the surviving guards and cops who lay trapped in Osborne's air constricts—helpless, their eyes wide with dread.The only person who would have somehow saved them was now dead. Even if someone else—Jeffery Flamel—had appeared to face the assassin, it didn't change anything. They didn't have high hopes that the young man was going to win the battle. After all, they had seen how powerful Osborne was.And at the very center of it all stood Osborne, tall and menacing, his dark coat fluttering in the heated wind. His hand hovered casually before Rita Stirling's throat, a faint shimmer of invisible air coiled like a blade against her skin. One flick of his fingers, one slip on Jeffery's advance, and he
CHAPTER 150
The echoes of chaos still lingered in the afternoon sir. It left a heavy feeling of tension within the atmosphere. It was as if space itself would break. Somewhere fire off were two police cars safely parked. Contrast to the chaos at the Stirling family manor, here was quiet peaceful.There were no puffs of smoke or cracked grounds. The sky was still clear, not painted by smokes from fire caused by alchemical. Everything was serene.Captain Daniel adjusted the brim of his cap, his uniform dark againt the glaring rays of the afternoon sun. Shadows carved harsh lines across his face, giving him the look of a man sculpted from stone. His hands rested calmly behind his back, but there was a weight in his stillness that unsettled the younger officers at his side.As he stood beside the police car, he was deep in thoughts. But it was unknown what he was thinking because his expression was perfectly normal.The officers stared at each other before turning to look at the captain. He wasn't sa
