When Chen Zhao arrived at the headquarters, he realized that West, Engelite, Gaia, Halis, and Norma were all injured.
"What happened?"
Chen Zhao and the other members who had just arrived at the headquarters were all confused.
They had no idea what was going on.
"We were attacked."
"Who? Psionic team? "
"Not the psionic team." West shook his head.
Just then, Gaia carried someone out.
It was Dewick.
Gaia kicked Dewick's calf.
Dewick knelt on the ground.
But he still stared at everyone stubbornly.
"Who is he?"
"Our captive?"
"That means we won last night's battle, right?"
"No, it's a draw … More accurately, we lost." Gaia's straightforwardness was unacceptable to West.
He'd wanted to modify it and explain in a roundabout way.
In the end, Gaia had completely embarrassed them.
"Your failure is just the beginning. Soon, the lady will come back for revenge. You, you, and you … none of you can escape."
Dewick pointed at Chen Zhao in the end.
"Don't be like this. Actually, I don't want to fight. Can I go to your family and apologize? If we offended you in any way or did something wrong, we're willing to apologize. We can compensate anything as long as we can stop this war. "
The others stood at the side expressionlessly.
His guild leader was acting like a drama queen again.
"Ha … No need to apologize. You just have to wait for death."
Dewick didn't have the self-cultivation of a captive at all.
Moreover, he really thought that Chen Zhao was begging him.
"Shouldn't you show that you're willing to give me a chance, introduce me to the leader of your family, and then bring me to the headquarters of your family, where you will fall out with me, humiliate me in public, and kill me without an intact body?"
"…"
"President, there's no need to be so troublesome. The captives have already confessed. They're from the Felner family. Their headquarters is in Seattle. They call themselves a millennium-old family."
"Then why did they attack us?"
"Your existence is the reason," Dewick said coldly.
"Why does this kid always say such stupid things?" Chen Zhao asked, pointing at Dewick.
"A family-style brainwashing education," West said.
"You've already captured her. How are you going to lose?" Chen Zhao was even more confused.
Hearing that, West's face turned bitter.
Looking at the crowd, he sighed and said, "We didn't lose, but we didn't win either. The key problem is that the other party suppressed all of us with just one person."
Chen Zhao more or less understood what West meant.
"It's fine," Chen Zhao comforted. "Actually, you didn't lose to that woman. You lost to her divine weapon. It's not a big deal. You can take revenge later."
Dwyko felt that this group of people were sore losers.
He still firmly believed.
Loving Martha is just a strategic retreat.
Soon, she would regroup and come back.
At that time, he could even work together with Amatha.
However, Chen Zhao really didn't know how to comfort people.
In any case, West and the others looked as if their fathers had died.
"Why don't we go and deal with that Felix family today?"
"Jollinash is still unconscious. I'm sure she wants us to wait for her."
"Jolene, is Nash badly hurt?"
"Very."
"Take me to see her."
Nar stayed by Jollinash's side the whole time.
He had been worried for the entire night.
Chen Zhao came in to check on Jollinash's injuries.
Nar stared at Chen Zhao with wide eyes.
"Mr. President, how is Jollinash?"
"She's pretty badly hurt, but it's not life-threatening."
"When will she wake up?"
"If you keep crying here, you'll probably wake her up."
"Ah … Then I won't cry … I'll go out and cry for a while more."
"Tell me what's going on."
Nar stuttered for a long time but couldn't explain clearly.
She didn't know what was going on either.
It was mainly because she was too weak.
Last night, Jollinash told her to stay away.
In the end, Amatha knocked her out.
She was even a hostage.
But she knew nothing about it.
"Whatever. Pretend I didn't ask. Keep crying."
Patting Nar, Chen Zhao turned and left the room.
Chen Zhao called West and walked around the man-made lake.
"Did you find the woman who escaped?"
"No."
"Forget it. It doesn't matter where she hides. We'll find her family in the end." Chen Zhao waved his hand. "Have you heard of that thousand-year-old family? Do you know what's going on? "
"I've heard a little. It's a name that appeared in the Middle Ages. It usually refers to families that have been around for hundreds or thousands of years and have a deep history."
"Have you heard of this Felix family?"
"No, I've never heard of it. Nowadays, there are only a handful of millennium-old families left in Europe. There's no need to investigate them. For those families, this title is glory and wealth. Of course, it's also pressure. However, there's basically no family that would deliberately conceal their identity and hide in order to reduce the pressure. So, this Felix family probably has some tricks up their sleeves. "
"You're saying that this Felix family isn't an ancient family in Europe?"
"President, how long has it been since the American continent was discovered? The real Great Immigration Era is even shorter, so there can't be a thousand-year-old family in America. Even South America doesn't have one. So, if this Felix family is really a thousand-year-old family, it must be from Europe."
"But didn't you say that the thousand-year-old families in Europe can be counted on your fingers?"
"I didn't say that they came recently. Now, the biggest possibility is that they came decades ago, or even hundreds of years ago. Maybe they were hunted in Europe, or their clan was exterminated, so they fled to the American continent and hid their identity. This is the most likely possibility. This is the only way to explain why I have never heard of this thousand-year-old family."
Chen Zhao thought about it and said, "I'll go find a professional and ask about it."
Chen Zhao walked a few steps and turned back. "If something like this happens again, I hope you can inform me immediately."
West nodded.
This time, he didn't argue.
It was because of his blind confidence and arrogance.
It had almost led to a disaster.
Of course, this battle had made him realize.
Right now, the top combatants of the Supernatural Organization were still not the best.
At the very least, they were helpless against enemies like Amatha, who had exquisite equipment all over her body.
