Alchemists do not need self-cultivation

A bucket of cold water was poured over his head, and he instantly woke up from his coma.

What came into view was Isaac, who had beaten him half to death earlier, and a group of fierce-looking soldiers. Next to him was a medical worker in a traditional Chinese coat, wearing a mask, with medicine constantly seeping from the syringe in his hand.

He tried to struggle, only to find himself strapped to an iron chair.

“Come on, tell me your name,” Isaac said with a smile.

"Who would tell you! Let me go!"

boom!

Without saying a word, Isaac shot him in the leg.

"what!!!"

“Don’t waste my time. I didn’t come to Yelkastum to play games with you bunch of brats,” Isaac said calmly. “Next question: who sent you?”

"..."

Now he started to get scared, but he still didn't answer Isaac's question.

“Is that so? While I admire your secrecy, it’s a pity I need to know some information.” Isaac nodded to the person dressed as a medical professional standing beside him.

The man understood and plunged the syringe into Doug's arm.

"Wait! What are you doing?!" He struggled desperately, but couldn't break free of the chair.

"A shot of truth serum will shut you up, but I didn't dilute it, so it's hard to say what you'll end up like." Isaac said with a wicked expression.

"Hey! Stop it!"

"Let's do it."

"Wait a moment!"

A voice suddenly came from outside, and Isaac turned around to find two people entering. A young girl wearing glasses and a middle-aged woman with white hair and some wrinkles on her face.

"Boss, they all have tags around their necks, so they should all be of the Twilight race."

“I know.” Isaac watched the two men approach him and walked over as well. “Gentlemen, what brings you here?”

The middle-aged woman, Gina Pacoly, sped up and walked up to Isaac the moment she saw him.

Isaac looked at the woman in front of him, who was a head taller than him, and was about 190cm tall.

"Gina, Jin Zhe!" Doug shouted when he saw the two of them. "Are you here to save me?! Take him down! This guy is too strong!"

"So that's how it is, you're here to rescue people." Isaac's eyes turned cold in an instant.

All the soldiers pointed their guns at the two men.

A girl named Jin Zhe quickly stepped in front of her superior, but Gina told him to step back.

"Sir..." Jin Zhe was somewhat confused.

Gina looked at Isaac, her originally serious face softening slightly.

She reached out and touched Isaac's head.

"Feifan, you've grown up."

"……what?"

Isaac was a little confused; this woman seemed to know him.

How do you know me?

“Your father and I are old acquaintances; we had a pretty good relationship back then.”

"..."

Based on what he had heard from others about his father's actions in Yıldırım, it wasn't hard to guess the relationship between this woman and his father.

“I heard one of my men came to attack you.” Gina looked at Doug, who was tied to a chair with a bruised and swollen face. “No wonder he’s his son; he actually managed to defeat him.”

"So, you're here to save him?"

Isaac will not release Gina just because she had an affair with his father.

"I'm not really here to rescue him; I just wanted to take this opportunity to see you," Gina said with a smile.

"That's good. I haven't found out who's behind him yet. I'll consider whether to return him to you after I find out."

He gestured to the medical staff to continue injecting the truth serum.

“I can tell you for him that it was the Corsican family who did it,” Gina said. “They probably disapproved of your actions in protecting our Twilight race, which is why they wanted to remove you from Yercastrum.”

"Is he the one who recently killed the Twilight race?"

“Absolutely not. He was at the camp when the incident happened, and my men and I have been investigating the same thing recently.”

"I see."

Indeed, the prisoner was skilled with a knife, but there were many people in Yelkastum who were skilled with knives, and the prisoner only targeted the Twilight race. He must have just happened to run into someone who wanted to assassinate him.

"Hey! Gina! How could you possibly have information about the client..."

boom!

Before Doug could finish speaking, Gina raised her hand and shot him through the shoulder.

"what!!!"

Doug finally started to get scared.

"Feifan, you don't mind if I teach this subordinate a lesson, do you?"

"please."

Gina nodded, walked up to Doug, whose face was filled with terror, and kicked him, knocking him and his chair to the ground.

"Doug, I told you before, the Twilight Race can only survive here by following the 'Three Principles,' and yet you attacked an ordinary person today. Do you know how much trouble this will cause our organization?"

Faced with his superior's stern and intimidating gaze, Doug was too frightened to speak.

boom!

She fired another shot into Doug's stomach, her expression indifferent. "Extraordinary... that is, Isaac, although very powerful, is also someone protected by the 'Three Principles.' Do you know what impact killing him would have on us?"

Then several more shots were fired, and poor Doug was shot in many places, but it did not kill him.

With the Twilight race's self-healing abilities, they should be able to get out of bed and walk in a few days.

Gina squatted down in front of him and said in a low voice, "And you even dared to touch that kid. If it weren't for the fact that he was alright, I would have shot your head off right now."

After saying that, she called out to the bespectacled girl behind her:

"Jin Zhe, carry him to Theo's clinic."

"Yes."

Jin Zhe hurriedly ran to Doug, who was covered in blood, picked him up, and carried him out of the factory.

"Boss, should we stop them?"

"No need, we've already received the information." Isaac didn't seem to care much.

Seeing the two people had already walked away, Gina came up to Isaac and smiled, "I'm so sorry, I wanted to come see you earlier, but I had a lot of things to take care of in the organization."

"No, that's not true. You and my father..."

"You mean Da Bao?" Gina smiled. "He's like an old flame."

"...That's enough."

Chapter 559: The End of Corsica

"You truly are Da Bao's son, protecting so many Twilight People even after coming to Yelkastum," Gina said with a smile, patting Isaac on the shoulder.

The news of his opening a factory and recruiting Twilight Race members had already spread throughout the city, and Gina, as the leader of the Twilight Race mercenary group, had naturally heard about it as well.

Isaac's actions were naturally highly praised.

“It’s not really about protecting them. I provide them with medicine and security, and they work for me. It’s just a kind of exchange,” Isaac said nonchalantly. “The reason you think I’m doing good deeds is simply because you’ve lived in an unfair environment for a long time.”

“That’s definitely true.” Gina nodded.

The status of the Twilight race has always been very low in this country, and both the government and the people have tried every means to expel them.

Isaac's factory gave them a glimmer of hope.

"Speaking of which, you're the leader of the Twilight Race Mercenary Group, aren't you?"

"Yes."

“Can I hire some people from you? After all, that happened recently,” Isaac asked.

The Twilight race members in Gina's mercenary group are all of relatively high level and have received some basic military training, making them much stronger than ordinary mercenaries.

“Of course, I will select a group of outstanding people for you,” Gina said with a smile. “Given my relationship with your father, you don’t need to be polite with me about this.”

"That sounds strange."

After Gina finished speaking, she walked out of the room alone, leaving only Isaac and the soldiers behind.

"Boss, your father..."

Don't ask.

With the Corsican family identified as the target, things became much easier.

The family's main businesses were brothels and arms smuggling. With arms smuggling, Isaac had every reason to wipe out the family; rivals are enemies, after all.

Furthermore, since they have already sent people to collect their own heads, there's no way this matter can be left unresolved.

However, the investigation into the massacre of the Twilight race on Sixth Street had not yet been completed.

Thanks to the information Warwick had provided him beforehand, the investigation became much easier. Chad's police department had also investigated some information, and combining the two, some things could be gleaned.

Officer Chad also took the initiative to approach Isaac to discuss the specific details of the case.

“Because these Twilight People had their tags taken when they were killed, the investigation is quite complicated,” Isaac said. “Fortunately, Warwick’s incredible memory has provided us with a lot of useful clues.”

"Yeah, every time I see that kid, I feel like he's really amazing."

Chad took a risk by coming to see Isaac this time, after all, Isaac had just caused a scene at the police station.

Fortunately, no conflict occurred after they met the person.
