CHAPTER 483
Denver and Sheryl were talking with the businessman Joelle had called over.“We don’t want these locals to dwell with the commoners,” Sheryl told the businessman. “Most of them are still mentally disturbed. I think it’s best if we put them all in a safe place.”“But we can give them jobs if we take them to a city,” the businessman said. “As long as they can do hard labor, they won’t have any problem. For the next ten to fifteen years, they will survive.”Denver frowned. “Why only ten to fifteen years?”The businessman smiled. “Obviously, automation will do all the work, so people will find it harder and harder to get jobs. In fact, there are already plans being laid out to reduce the number of humans around the world.”Denver was shocked to hear that. “Huh? By reducing the number, you don’t mean…”“When the works get automated, people lose their skills and become a liability,” the businessman replied with a smile. “You wouldn’t feed cows and sheep unless they give back something usefu
CHAPTER 482
Later that day.Nox came to report to Mickey, “Lord, the three ghosts died. It seems that someone calling himself the Alpha has intervened.”“The Alpha?” Mickey’s expression changed. “You mean the guy who’s going toe to toe with the Supreme Families? Why would he attack the three ghosts?”“Forgive me, Lord. We are yet to find out why he stepped in,” Nox said. “But our mission isn’t a complete failure. We received a message from the three ghosts before they died. They said they got ‘one’ to our side.”Mickey faintly smiled. “I see. Then give them a proper burial.”“One of their bodies is completely gone, but we recovered the other two,” Nox replied. “I will give them proper send off as you said.”After Nox left, Mickey was staring at the chess board before him, on which the pieces were all made from solidifying aura.“The Alpha… should I ally with him, or should I take the side of the Supreme Families?” Mickey wondered. “One side is yet to fully prove himself but has a promising future
CHAPTER 481
Sakura and others were all falling down.Hundreds if not thousands of people on the ground were recording it. Thanks to their high-resolution cameras, they were able to see rather clearly and tell that people were falling.They had no idea what exactly happened for multiple humans to be falling at the same time, but it sure caused a commotion.“We’re still so high up,” Stoney cursed under her breath. “Is this how we’re going to die?”Even though the two ghosts were in a similar situation, they were still laughing maniacally. They didn’t seem to fear death at all.Rocky caught Stoney’s hand and said, “Let me be your cushion.”“Darling,” Stoney felt emotional.Berg was just calmly falling down with his arms folded, looking like a warrior unfazed before death.Sakura, on the other hand, was trying to make her broken armor work, but things were going as she wanted.When they reached the five thousand feet mark, Lovia appeared out of a tunnel and looked up at them.“I see them,” Lovia smil
CHAPTER 480
“How are we going to land safely then?!” Stoney cried out.“Two of us will have to prepare ourselves to die,” Berg said. “Since you two are a couple, I think you should live and die together.”Berg’s words made Stoney cry some more.“I’m not carrying you, Berg,” Sakura snorted. “You weigh as much as those combined.”“Tsk, so you’re going to let me die,” Berg closed his eyes. “Fine. Just get lost from sight.”Their broken jet came to 16,000 ft height.“We have about one and half minutes left before impact,” Sakura said. “I don’t see any water bodies nearby, either. We’re perfectly in the middle of a city. This crash is going to kill some people.”“You’re more worried about other people’s lives now?” Stoney cried some more. “You have become like Lovia since you two spent time together these past three years!” She looked at her husband. “Say something, Rocky! Figure out how we can live!”Rocky looked around. “We should have grabbed the harness containers, but they were in the front half
CHAPTER 479
The three ghosts were traveling in a private jet.Rocky, Stoney, and Berg were all tied up in the back.“How long will it take to get to Hawk Park?” one of the ghosts asked the pilot, his voice laced with annoyance.“Forty minutes, sir,” the driver replied.“Tsk, if it weren’t for you, we’d have long gotten there!” Two of the ghosts looked at the third one who was the most injured.Because the third one had to receive emergency treatment, they wasted a lot of time.“The Rankers Festival may start at any time. We can’t afford to waste even a minute. We have to be in Hawk Park much before the festival starts.”Just then, an object came flying and attached itself to the plane.The three ghosts heard the noise.“What was that?” one of them looked out through the glass window.Suddenly the window broke, and a hand grabbed his face and pulled his whole body out of the plane and threw him into the distance.The window’s size doubled because of forcefully pulling a person out.The other two g
CHAPTER 478
Lovia sent Edward and Stephen into a secret underground hideout, which had all the modern facilities, but they were advised not to call anybody through their mobiles or online.Lovia then returned to Edward’s mansion.She went to the room where the guest was being tortured. “Did he say anything useful?”“He’s not saying a word, ma’am.”Lovia looked at the injured guest.His twenty nails had been plucked out.A dozen of his teeth were also lying on the floor.“Your loyalty is commendable,” Lovia said, “but do you really want to lose your life for Mickey?”The guest looked surprised.“Did you think I wouldn’t be able to recognize the move you used when you fought me?” Lovia said. “There’s no need to give your life away to a bastard who doesn’t even give you a second chance.”She lifted her eyepatch, which exposed her fake eyeball.“I refused to work for him, so he sent someone else to fight me. I lost my eye when I got sneakily attacked. Mickey might think I wouldn’t have figured it out
