Chapter 241: Deborah’s Ambition
Combined with the woman’s style, Locke made a bold guess. “Could it be that these foods contain toxins that can control human nerves? Is your Battle Beast a poison-type?”
“I really didn’t misjudge you. You’re really a smart person…”
Then, a green light flashed!
What appeared in front of them was a very beautiful Battle Beast!
There seemed to be a few emerald flowers on its small head!
The blue and green feathers on its body looked very n.o.ble!
The peac.o.c.k let out two light cries and its tail unfolded like a rainbow!
It was like a jade fan and the eye spots on its tail reflected light like countless of small mirrors!
Locke touched the peac.o.c.k’s head and a panel immediately appeared:
[ Battle Beast name: Peac.o.c.k King ]
[ Battle Beast grade: Orange rank ]
[ Battle Beast attribute: Poison. Light ]
[ Battle Beast level: Stage 5, level 6]
[ Battle Beast talent: Hallucination ]
[ Battle Beast skill: Radiance. Beautiful Poison. Remote Poison. ]
“It suits your temperament very well, it’s beautiful!” Locke praised.
After removing a small piece of the Peac.o.c.k King’s feathers, Deborah placed it into a gla.s.s of water beside her.
The beautiful feathers melted quickly but the water in the gla.s.s did not change at all.
“There’s no smell, no color. I’m afraid that it will be difficult to find a similar species on this continent?” Deborah was very confident.
“Based on this poison, you can control a person’s thoughts and actions. Is this your secret weapon to dominate Water City?”
If it was anyone else, they would definitely be shocked.
To Locke, who was immune to poison damage, it was not worth mentioning.
“Isn’t this enough?” Deborah said with a thought.
The hundreds of workers who were busy immediately stopped their work.
They lined up in three rows according to Deborah’s thought.
Their eyes were dull and they were expressionless.
From the moment they had entered, Locke found that these people had not spoken as if they did not have the ability to speak.
“The only drawback is that they can’t speak but I can control their actions!” Deborah explained.
The experienced Locke knew that the other party was bragging. This must be a skill with a time limit.
Otherwise, based on the woman’s ambition, who knew how many cities she could control!
“How is it? Are you more confident now? Don’t worry! You won’t become mute! The capsule I gave you before is a different poison, it can only be fatal…” Her jade-like hand touched Locke’s handsome face and said softly, “Little Brother, you have to listen to your sister… That poison can be controlled remotely and I can activate it at any time…”
Locke’s expression did not change as he was not afraid at all.
He hugged her and said, “Do you have any other kind of poison? I want to try it..”
“Hmph… It won’t come cheap.” Deborah was amused and whispered into his ear, “I need to expand the production line now. The underwater fortress project also needs a large sum of money. I want you to invest 100 billion, is that okay?”
Deborah thought that the other party’s life was in her hands and began to increase the price unilaterally.
Locke naturally understood the other party’s thoughts.
Now that most people in Water City had been poisoned, Locke could not act rashly. He could only pretend to cooperate. “Okay, I’ll do it as soon as possible. Ten days…”
“No, just one week…” After Deborah said that, she left a lipstick mark on Locke’s cheek.
…
After the two of them separated, Locke used the ring to immediately connect with his three colleagues.
Everyone frowned when they heard the news about the food processing plant.
“The woman is more powerful than I thought. We have to find a way to counter the poison…” Sean replied in the alley with a cigarette in his mouth.
“Oh no! There are too many citizens. Once Deborah controls them, we won’t be able to find any evidence if they have cast the vote!” Belinda, who was in the shopping mall, realized the seriousness of the problem.
“We can consider eliminating her directly…” Miles felt a headache coming. He did not expect the situation in Water City to be so serious!
Locke said, “Absolutely not! If we kill her and the backup of the photo is leaked, the mission will still fail…”
However, he did not care much about the face of the royal family. He just did not want to lose the opportunity to get the dragon antiques.
Then, he told everyone the location of the apartment where the photos were hidden.
“I wasn’t thinking clearly. Locke is right! How about this, let’s start with the photos! Tomorrow is the voting day. We must hurry!”
After ending the communication, Miles immediately rushed to the apartment.
Sean continued to monitor and collect information.
After arriving at an empty place, Belinda also changed into her Black Battle Suit. Stealing was her specialty!
…
At night, the few of them arrived near the apartment.
“Everyone! There aren’t many people around so this is a good opportunity!” Sean said to the ring from a high building.
“Locke is responsible for monitoring the outside. Belinda, follow me in!”
Miles, who was hiding in the dark, said and approached the apartment under the cover of the night.
Belinda, who was near the apartment, moved her body. Like a dancing elf, she moved easily between the rooftops.
After jumping into the air easily, she threw two Night Shadow Flying Blades at the gla.s.s on the second floor of the apartment.
The two blades did not directly break the gla.s.s. Instead, they cut the gla.s.s as if they had eyes. Almost no sound was made!
After holding the gla.s.s firmly in her hand, Belinda jumped onto the second floor!
The entire process was so smooth that it was very pleasing to the eyes!
Not far away, Locke was leaning against the convenience store door, chewing a hamburger. Looking at this scene, he thought to himself, ‘Good skill…’
Miles entered the first floor.
The two of them had gone through this kind of cooperation countless times and each of them began to search their respective floors with tacit understanding.
Arriving at the computer room, Miles immediately summoned his Battle Beast.
A robot the size of a basketball floated beside his shoulder.
“Infiltrate!”
The robot that received the master’s command rolled its eyes twice and the mechanical arm on its body began to extend and connect to the interface of the computer host!
In less than three minutes, the pa.s.sword had been cracked!
The computer screen began to show the crown prince’s indecent photos.
What Miles did not expect was that there were thousands of them!
It meant that what Locke saw before was only a small part!
“Retrieve!”
The robot immediately began to store the photos and data into its body.
After the theft was completed, the soft copy photos in the computer were deleted!
