Chapter 375: Reaching the secret vault (I)
Timothy’s eyes widened with awe and shock as he saw how two individuals burst their way out of Ocius’ head, with the one donning a red helmet managing to cripple three Wave Kings in less than a second.
For the old Wave Champion, such might was comparable only to that of an Elder of the Azure Royal Family. The fear in his heart grew so strong that he did not hesitate to use his A.I. Chip to communicate with the outside world. As for how he would explain all this, he did not care; at the moment, his only thought was to survive.
Unfortunately for Timothy, there was another jamming signal in place besides the one he had used to hinder Ocius’ A.I. Chip, blocking his messages. And if that wasn’t enough, branches emerged from the wooden cage and entrapped his body, immobilizing him.
"If you try anything, my branches will pierce your body. You will not die, but it will be painful."
Timothy trembled upon hearing those words, seeing the man in the black helmet looking at him with coldness and disdain.
Krane loathed those who betrayed their comrades, but while he wanted to kill Timothy and the others, they had to remain alive. Otherwise, Cain would not have aimed at non-vital points and killed the three Wave Kings immediately.
After Cain took care of the Wave Kings, branches emerged from the wooden cage and entangled them just as they had with Timothy.
Farius’ face was pale, and his body could not stop trembling due to the severe damage he had just sustained. While he knew he was severely wounded and could not escape by force, he understood there was a reason they were kept alive.
"What... do you... want?" Farius struggled to regulate his breathing and found it difficult to speak, but he managed to gather the strength needed to ask that question.
Cain’s gaze was as cold as ever as he looked at the three Wave Kings, but his eyes turned toward Timothy, making the latter tremble with terror.
