"That power …"
Mary thought back to the power she had felt before.
That terrifying power that seemed to be able to topple mountains and overturn seas seemed to have come from this small fragment of bone.
From the very beginning, Gunali had given her a very different feeling.
That feeling was different from the other people who had been captured as sacrifices; it was as if she was hiding some sort of secret.
The attitude of the group of Red Lotus disciples later proved this point.
Even so, the possibility of such a young girl possessing terrifying power was too low.
Mary did not think that way.
Everything seemed to be the power of this small fragment of bone.
"If the person who had this fragment of bone was me …"
This thought flashed through Mary's mind uncontrollably.
Following this, she sighed and a self-mocking look appeared on her face.
Before this, most of the sacrifices in the stone palace had been taken by the Red Lotus disciples using various methods.
However, there were also a small number of people who had entered voluntarily in search of great power.
Mary was one of these people.
It was just that in the end, nothing seemed to have changed.
Standing on the spot, Mary turned around and looked at Gunali.
Compared to her, Gunali had almost everything she wanted.
A good family, a noble bloodline, and … that mysterious and powerful power.
It was really enviable …
Mary sighed in her heart, but didn't do anything. She just silently looked at Gunali, who was lying on the bed, and seemed to be asleep. She had mixed feelings.
Outside, footsteps could be heard.
Following this, the door to the room was opened, and a handsome and dignified-looking middle-aged man ran in.
His speed was so fast that Mary didn't even know how he came in, just like an afterimage.
"Gunali!"
Looking at Gunali in the room, a look of ecstasy appeared on his face. Even his movements were trembling, as if he was afraid of waking up the little girl in front of him.
As for Mary, he seemed to have completely ignored her.
Mary looked at this scene with complicated feelings.
"This is … Gunali's father?"
Standing on the spot, she examined the middle-aged man in front of her and felt complicated, "He looks so powerful …"
Mary had seen the middle-aged man in front of her in the photo frame just now. It was the middle-aged man who was holding Gunali, but the majestic aura he exuded was even stronger.
After a while, Mallikdo turned around and looked at Mary.
His gaze was a bit scrutinizing, but he did not say anything. He only nodded at her, then turned around and looked at the broken bones on Gunali's body.
Under his gaze, there was a faint glimmer of light in that piece of broken bone. There seemed to be some kind of indescribable power emerging from it, which made people feel that it was very unique.
But very soon, this power quieted down and disappeared, as if it had never appeared.
"This is …"
Sensing that wave of power, Mallikdo's expression changed, and he realized something.
At that moment, Chen Heng's consciousness left that piece of bone.
Within a quiet and spacious laboratory, Chen Heng was busy with his experiments.
An indescribable fluctuation appeared, causing him to subconsciously raise his head and look into the distance, as if he had sensed something.
"Is it over?"
The scenes that he had experienced previously appeared in his mind, and he quickly skimmed through them.
Then, he nodded. He was quite satisfied with this matter.
"Black King …"
"Seems like I've caught another big fish …"
Chen Heng gave a slight smile, giving off an amiable aura. Seeing this, those around him could not help but feel quite surprised.
It was not Chen Heng's main body that had left with Gunali, but a portion of his power that he had purposely split off.
This was to prevent anything from happening to Gunali.
After all, knowing that there were people eyeing Gunali, how could Chen Heng not be on guard and allow others to do as they pleased?
That piece of broken bone had once been a fragment of his body, and it was perfect for storing a portion of his True Spirit's power.
This power, combined with the Ancient Battle Armor, would be enough to unleash great battle power.
From the current situation, the results were quite good.
Not only had he gotten rid of a hidden danger, but he had also subdued the Red Lotus Association's faction.
This would be of great benefit to Chen Heng's future plans.
The Red Lotus Association's faction was much more powerful than the Orrell family's, and they had connections with many of the nobles on the Hermit planet.
Through them, Chen Heng could obtain many precious resources and other things.
Of course, right now, Chen Heng had only controlled Elder Phillip.
There was still some time before he could control the entire Red Lotus Association.
However, from how Chen Heng saw it, it was about time.
After subduing the Red Lotus Association and using its resources, Chen Heng's research progress would greatly increase.
When he recovered his strength, he could even use the Red Lotus Association and the Orrell family's power to spread throughout the entire Hermit planet.
If he could do this, it would be much more convenient for Chen Heng.
Many thoughts flashed through Chen Heng's mind before he thought of Gunali.
"Mallikdo must be quite surprised, right?"
Standing on the spot, he thought with some mischief. At this moment, he could already imagine Mallikdo's feelings.
In actuality, this was indeed the case.
Mallikdo was pleasantly surprised at the moment.
The Ancient Battle Armor, such a legendary item, had reappeared.
Moreover, the one who had this legendary item was none other than his daughter.
This sort of surprise was simply too great.
Within the quiet room, Mallikdo had already heard what had happened from Mary, and he even knew that one of the Red Lotus Association's Elders had died at Gunali's hands.
To put it bluntly, when Malik heard this news, his eyeballs almost popped out of his eye sockets.
Was this a joke?
An elder of the Red Lotus Association was someone who stood at the pinnacle of He Chi Xing City. Normally, it would be extremely difficult to even walk up to them, let alone kill them.
The Orrell family was not an ordinary faction, and with Mallikdo's strength and connections, he naturally knew of the Red Lotus Association's existence and the President's power.
This was someone who stood at the peak, and even he had to look up to them.
And now, such a peak figure had died at his daughter's hands.
From Mary's description, it seemed that it had not taken much effort.
This was quite … a pleasant surprise.
Looking at his daughter who was sleeping soundly on the bed, Malik's expression was complicated. At that moment, he really wanted to wake Gunali up and ask her about what had happened.
