Yuri? When Accius arrived at the airport, a silver, futuristic supersonic passenger plane was already ready.
Except for the roar of the passenger plane, the entire airport was silent as if it were empty. However, if one observed carefully, they would find countless guards hiding in the dark like ghosts.
All the guards were told that St. Petersburg was attacked by a small group of rebels, and the shameful coup would soon be over.
It did not matter even if they were not told. The four telepathic control towers in the four corners of the airport were enough to turn everybody in the airport into Yuri's puppets.
"My mentor, the father of mankind."
A young man with black hair and black eyes in a gray trench coat walked up and greeted Yuri in person. Accius opened the door of the car and bowed to him respectfully.
The young man had a face that was a mixture of handsomeness and innocence. His skin that was as smooth as jade emitted holy brilliance all the time, making everybody feel a sense of trust when they saw him. Only a few people noticed countless tiny wrinkles around his eye sockets when they looked at him carefully, indicating that he was probably much older than his appearance suggested. Also, the pair of eyes that were buried deep contained many things that were far beyond "innocence".
Although countless people called Yuri? Accius was his "mentor", there were not many disciples that Yuri really acknowledged. This young man was the youngest and the most favored and trusted by Yuri.
His name was "Wanzanghai".
On the surface, he was the leader of the "Earth Water Group", the leader of the "Red Cross Charity General Alliance", a civil rights activist who called for reconciliation between the underground race and the radiation race, a well-known entrepreneur, inventor, philanthropist, and a rising star in politics.
But in secret, he was a very important person in "Yuri's group", independent of the "Earth Reconstruction Committee". Accius's other tentacle was Yuri's trump card!
With the situation in such a bad situation, he could only rely on his last trump card to save his life.
"The situation is out of control. Someone has betrayed us."
Yuri waved his hands at his beloved disciple and said straightforwardly, "Let's go to the Arctic Ocean base first, find the traitor, and carry out the cruelest revenge. The 'Earth Council' can't control the entire Earth so quickly. We still have plenty of opportunities!"
"Yes."
Wanzanghai helped Urey board the plane. "The final victory will belong to us."
"It's just hard on you. The glorious image that you spent twenty years building up in front of the world is going to be destroyed in a day."
Yuri looked at his disciple. "Are you willing?"
"Of course."
Wanzanghai smiled. Not a single one of the hundreds of millions of wrinkles at the corners of his eyes moved. "The reason Hidden Sea is where it is today is all thanks to Teacher. For the final … justice, I am willing to pay any price."
Urey snorted and walked to his room at the back of the cabin.
His supersonic invisible passenger plane was enhanced by doomsday technology. It was more advanced and luxurious than the Air Force One, the presidential vehicle of the US before World War III. It had a spacious bedroom and a meeting room.
The battle of St. Petersburg had consumed too much of his energy. After all, he was an old man who was more than a hundred years old. He couldn't bear such an exhaustion. He had to take a good rest.
The boarding gate slowly separated from the plane. Wanzanghai ordered the flight crew and the tower to take off immediately.
Until now, everything was normal.
However, just when Urey put his hand on the door of the bedroom, his pupils suddenly contracted, and his footsteps paused.
"Crack!"
In an instant, two iron hands surrounded by electric arcs broke the door from the inside and grabbed at him. It was the Magnetic Blast Infantry!
"Crash!"
The floor on both sides of him was also blown up by the plastic bombs. A team of elite SEALs jumped out!
A purple light flashed in Urey's eyes, and a purple flame instantly surrounded his body. The purple flame turned into a sharp blade and stabbed at the brains of the attackers. Instantly, the eyeballs of all the attackers exploded, and the crushed brain matter gushed out from their nostrils and ears.
However, a force with the same nature, but more powerful than his, came from behind him and knocked this old man to the ground.
"Ah!"
Urey turned around, and shock and anger flashed across his face. He let out a roar like a trapped beast, and the purple light in the depths of his eyes became even more intense.
But he could not beat the bombardment of the young man's brainwaves, which were ten times more vigorous than his own. After only five seconds of stalemate, he seemed to have aged fifty years on the basis of a hundred years old. His eyeballs and brain were almost dried up. He vomited a mouthful of purple blood and collapsed to the ground.
Wan Zang Hai still had an innocent and pure smile on his face. Step by step, neither too fast nor too slow, he walked towards the teacher.
When he passed by a SEAL's body, he stopped and bent down to pull out the SEAL's dagger.
The dagger was very sharp, and the motto of the SEALs was engraved on it: "Yesterday was the only day I could relax!"
Wanzanghai stuck out the tip of his tongue and licked the words. Then, he walked to his mentor with the dagger in his hand.
The two of them looked at each other and were still competing on the mental level. Billions of purple streaks were crossing and colliding in their eyes. Very soon, Urey completely collapsed. Blood flowed out of his mouth, nose, eyes, and ears, and he moaned like a dying old man.
"It's you! It's you!"
Urey stared at Wanzanghai with the most vicious eyes and roared in the most unbelievable voice, "Why did you betray me? Why? What benefits did the 'Earth Council' give you exactly? Why are you willing to destroy the entire 'Earth Reconstruction Committee' and the cause that we worked so hard to build up?"
"Demeanor, my dear mentor, pay attention to your demeanor. You are a great man after all. Even if you are at a dead end, there is no need for you to be so pathetic."
Wanzanghai's smile was even more intense. He narrowed his eyes and took a deep breath, as if he considered the air that Urey released when he was extremely frustrated and scared to be the best food. "Didn't you teach me all the schemes, schemes, and betrayals? Didn't you say that for people like us, betrayal is like breathing and should become instincts in order to survive in this ugly world? Today, I have carried out your teachings and indeed betrayed you. What's so strange about that? "
"Idiot! Idiot! Idiot!"
Urey shuddered, almost exasperated. "Betrayal requires benefits and timing. Right now, you don't have the slightest reason to betray me!
"At this moment, the entire Earth is united under the banner of the 'Earth Reconstruction Committee' and enshrouded in my infinite brilliance. You are my most beloved disciple. I can give you whatever you want. What benefits can you get by betraying me and joining such a mediocre organization as the 'Earth Council'? Nothing at all! "
"Power."
Wanzanghai said casually, "What about the highest power?"
"Power? The highest power? Haha. Hahahaha! "
Urey laughed crazily like a dying crow. "I thought that you were a smart man, but I didn't know that you would be so stupid! Wanzanghai, I always knew that you were ambitious and would never submit to anyone, but I didn't know that you would be so impatient that you couldn't even wait for a few decades!
"Yes, as long as I am here, you will never be able to grasp the highest power of the 'Earth Reconstruction Committee'. So what? I am already more than 130 years old. I cannot live forever. Right now, you are still too young to seize the highest power. You can totally wait. Wait for ten or twenty years, or thirty or forty years at most. Then, I will give you the whole cause. Even if I don't give it to you, it won't be too late for you to betray me!
"Right now, you want to win the trust of the 'Earth Council' and get the highest power by betraying me? Haha. Childish. Too childish. Even if you betray me, you will still be branded by 'Urey'. You will never rise to the top of the 'Earth Council'! "
"Is that so?"
Wanzanghai's face did not change at all. "My dear master, please have more confidence in your best disciple. As long as I want to, nothing can stop me. What can the 'Earth Council' do to me?"
"But it doesn't make sense at all!"
Urey's eyes bulged, and he breathed heavily. "Even if you can get rid of the stains on your background and climb to the peak of the 'Earth Council' in the most arduous way, it will take you at least thirty to forty years or even longer. Is there any difference between that and the route that I chose for you, which is to rise steadily in the 'Earth Reconstruction Committee'? The former route is more dangerous, longer, and more uncertainties, but the latter is almost certain. You are my most excellent disciple, and nobody can replace you. The so-called power is not a reason for betrayal at all! "
"Exactly. You saw through it."
Wan Zanghai continued to smile, but deep flames were surging in his eyes. "I did not betray you for the laughable reason of 'supreme power'. Instead, I betrayed you for an even more ancient, intense, and even eternal reason — revenge."
"Revenge?"
Urey was dazed for a long time. The veins on his neck and temples were protruding one after another. He could barely believe his ears. "Compared to 'power', this is more like a joke. What grudge do I have against you that you would destroy everything that we have?
"It was me. It was my duplicate who discovered you in the hospital. I even helped you cover up and forge a legal identity. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for an abnormal devil like you to bluff your way through the 'alliance' at that time!
"It was me who taught you to develop the 'power of heart' and made you one of the top ten superpowers on Earth. I also gave you tremendous financial and technical support to establish the largest water treatment company in the world!
"It was me who packaged you as a philanthropist, a fighter for civil rights, and a 'saint' that everybody in the world knows!
"It was me. It was me who groomed you in person and gave you everything you have today bit by bit. Also, during the whole process, I barely tortured you or made use of you. You are completely different from other disciples and experiment subjects!
"You are the most perfect work of art that I have created. You are a masterpiece bestowed by the heavens. I couldn't bear to hurt you at all. Even if I did hurt you a little, it was all for the training of the 'power of heart'. I gave you everything I had! I could understand if you betrayed me for 'power', but 'revenge'? I don't understand! I don't know what grudge there is between you and me at all! "
"It's true that there is no grudge between you and me, but —"
Wanzanghai bit the SEAL dagger in his mouth and snapped his fingers softly.
Inside the bloody cabin, lively country music immediately echoed.
"In the heavenly West Virginia
The Blue Ridge Mountains, the Shanandoah River
The creatures there are far away, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains, growing like the breeze
The country road, take me home, that is where I belong … "
Urey's eyes were blank. He did not understand what Wanzanghai meant.
"Do you still remember 'Jack'? 'Barrett'? "
Wanzanghai raised the dagger and stared at Urey. The tip of the dagger was aimed at the space between his mentor's eyebrows. "A former SEAL, one of the first batches of experimental subjects in the X Battalion."
A few turbid waves appeared in Urey's blank eyes. He said somewhat uncertainly, "… Big Gold Tooth?"
"Yes, 'Golden Tooth Barrett'."
Wanzanghai's face was calm, but his voice was trembling slightly. "I will take revenge on you for everything that he suffered in the X Battalion."
The dagger spat out purple flames, and the SEAL motto shone brightly.
"Wait, wait!"
Urey was completely confused. "What does Big Gold Tooth have to do with you? Oh right, the two of you seemed to have been on the run for a few days in the Wasteland. You even stole my 'mind notebook' from him. So what? You can't be willing to destroy everything and take revenge for him just for a few days together and a notebook, right? That notebook is mine. I am your mentor! What is Big Gold Tooth? Wanzanghai, you must think carefully! "
"I'm sorry, mentor. I've already thought it through. Everything has a price, and I can and am willing to pay the price for this revenge."
Amidst the lively country music, the black-haired, black-eyed young man's face bloomed with the innocence of a boy again. He recalled many things in an instant, and he laughed until he cried. "There's one more thing, mentor. You've been mispronouncing my name. My name is not 'Wanzanghai'."
"What?"
Of course, Urey knew that the young man in front of him was not the real Wanzanghai, but he did not understand why he brought it up now. He subconsciously asked, "Who are you?!"
"I am the son of 'Golden Tooth Barrett'."
The boy stabbed the dagger deep into Urey's forehead. The space between Accius's eyebrows moved closer to his ear and said clearly, "My name is Bai Xiaolu."
