Chapter 328
Chapter 328
328 DID YOU FORGET ME?
Zuri rushed straight toward Chaos, who was standing right in front of the enormous body of the dragon. The monstrous creature writhed in pain, despite the fact that Chaos didn’t even touch him at all. Against all odds, it seemed the dragon tried to move its body away from him, as though he saw the real danger that came his way.
At this point, as her feet rushed her straight to Chaos, Zuri had not yet decided what she was going to do. Would it be possible for her to talk to him? Did he even want to listen? What if he forgot about her completely? What if he didn’t even hesitate to attack her?
That didn’t mean he had ever attacked her before, but what would Zuri do if he did? If he could make the monstrous dragon writhe in so much agony, Chaos could kill her with a snap of his finger. As simple as that.
Yet, Zuri still walked closer to him, despite her fear and the unknown. She clenched her fists and forced herself to move closer to him.
In the end, as if the man of chaos sensed her presence, he turned around to find Zuri was only five steps away from him. She stopped running because the way he glared at her and the coldness that exuded from his eyes simply made her freeze in her place.
Zuri felt the air leave her lungs and made her unable to breath amidst this smoke. She blinked her eyes, her lips were slightly ajar, but there was no word that came out of her mouth.
Half of her wanted to run away because Chaos was too scary for her to handle. Her instinct told her to leave, as it sensed immense danger from him, but her mind told her to stay. This was what she needed to do. She needed to stop him.
But, how?
Meanwhile in the background, the dragon was still writhing in pain, trying its hardest to stand up and fly away, yet there was nothing he could do.
.....
The dragon tried to stand, but as if there were invisible chains that tied down its body, he couldn’t even lift its head.
“Chaos...” Zuri called him, but her voice was too small to be coherent, yet he tilted his head and looked at her more intently. “Chaos, it is me, don’t you remember me?”
=======================
All of them were stunned to witness what River was capable of doing. The lava that spurted out of the cracked ground spread throughout the area, as they were forced to step back a few meters away.
There was nothing that they could do to reach River and Vanesha at this point.
“Oh, this is bad,” Adrik muttered under his breath, as he watched the lava destroy one of their operational cargo planes.
Which meant, a batch of soldiers that were supposed to be sent to East Draghar would be delayed until further notice, or until they could fix the situation over here.
“The worst was yet to come,” Sol said. He knew that River’s power had made great progress, but what she was doing right now was simply beyond his expectation.
The scientists had never tried her power outside of her special room, that fact alone was already limiting their knowledge about River’s power.
“I have informed Mr. Williams,” Adrik told Sol. He looked at his best friend, as they moved back one more time, so they wouldn’t be caught in this lava. This thing didn’t move very fast, but it was lethal to say the least... “He will come with the Minister of Defense, Mr. Roy.”
Sol snickered. “What a great day to meet with the two of them, I thought they both wanted to kill each other,” he said in a mocking tone.
“Well, probably after seeing this, they will start to stab each other,” Adrik replied.
Mr. Roy didn’t agree with this idea at first, he wanted this to be kept under wraps until they dealt with the dragon by transporting River through a different way, since they assumed Gael had known their whole plan, because Sol couldn’t hear what Gael had told Vanesha.
Yet, Mr. Williams insisted, which resulted in him ordering his son to handle this situation.
“I hope both of them die,” Sol said grimly, which made Adrik shudder. He had never seen him so full of hatred like this before.
“What is that?” Adrik squinted his eyes, as he pointed his finger toward the south gate, which was in the opposite direction.
There were around two cars and seven eighteen wheelers that stopped there.
Sol and Adrik each immediately grabbed a pair of binoculars to see clearly and their jaws tightened to see who those people were.
“It’s him. Gael and his people.” The sound of Sol’s voice was so dark, he gritted his teeth and tried his best to compose himself, but it was simply hard to do so. “Prepare to attack.”
“What? We need to wait for Mr. Williams and Mr. Roy, they told us to stand by,” Adrik reminded him.
“But, I am the commander here.” Sol was filled with rage the moment he saw Gael, he could care less about the orders and rules. As long as he could kill him, it was all that mattered to him.
Not to mention the fact that Vanesha was actually Gael’s pawn. He had been played in their hands for years now and he felt very stupid to not realize it sooner.
=========================
“Chaos, it is me, don’t you remember me?” Zuri was not sure what she should expect Chaos’ reaction to be, but she could feel that the fire around her had intensified and now she felt her skin being burned, as her breathing became shallow.
On the other hand, Chaos took a step closer and then the next step and the next, until he stood right in front of Zuri, staring down at her with his red eyes.
