Chapter 60 Amber Gets Possessed

After hearing Felicia’s words, Amber glanced at Jonathan unwittingly. There was a sense of unfathomable elation in her heart – she had been right about Jonathan all along. Even that vengeful spirit commended Jonathan for his personality.

However, Jonathan remained unmoved. He peered at Felicia and said in a low voice, “Normally, the maleficent appears only in secluded places, like treacherous mountains and dilapidated ruins. Such places usually show no signs of life. However, Golden Years isn’t such a place. This place is bustling with life as flocks of people gather here. As a wandering soul, you’ve forcefully inhabited the place for a long time. By refusing to leave, you are going against god’s will. If you persist in staying on, catastrophic karma shall befall on you sooner or later.”

Felicia sneered coldly at his words. Her sinister laughter was enough to make one’s hair stand. Soon after, Felicia added sardonically, “According to you, there will be catastrophic karma befalling on me. Don’t tell me that karma is you?”

Jonathan replied, “I’d advise you to leave this place. Firstly, I need this place for my own use. Secondly, you can’t stay here indefinitely. You are a wandering soul with psychic abilities. You should know better than me that karma is inevitable. Karma will repeat itself in a vicious cycle unless you put a stop to it. As long as you agree to leave, I will send you along with Destino’s treasure into the deep mountains. After that, I will build a shrine for you. That kills two birds with one stone. What do you think?”

Suddenly, Felicia broke into hysterical laughter. In a psychotic guffaw, she replied, “About three years ago, I misplaced my trust in that scumbag, Gabriel. In the end, he was the one who killed me with a tight metal wire around my neck. After prolonged wringing, the metal wire cut away the skin on my neck.

Helplessly, I watched my own blood splatter from my neck in spurts. Until now, do you think I’d still believe in anyone, especially men? How will I know what your real intentions are?” After a brief pause, Felicia continued, “I’ve given you a chance by warning you to back off. Since you refuse to accede, then you have to accept the consequences with the lady next to you. Pay for it with your lives now!”

After finishing her words, Felicia’s body form gradually changed.

Under the luminescent white light that shone from the searchlights, Felicia’s mesmerizing figure gradually floated in the air.

It was a bizarre sight, almost like a special-effect performance in a paranormal drama.

Next, Felicia’s body shape-shifted into a black mist. That dark mist was dense, and it quickly took another form. It rapidly conjured an image of a dark devil.

After that, Felicia’s laughter became even more deranged. Her demented laughter drove terror straight into Jonathan and Amber’s hearts.

As Amber looked at Felicia’s state of change, she couldn’t help but feel frightened.

Despite the fearful sight, Jonathan somehow remained calm and composed as he uttered in a low voice to Amber, “This is all an illusion. Once you fear what you see before you, the demon will infiltrate your mind.”

“Haha!” Felicia sniggered hysterically again. “For my cultivation stage, do you still think everything that manifests before you is all but an illusion? What a joke!”

Unbothered by her words, Jonathan flashed Felicia an icy glare and continued to ignore her. He reminded Amber again, “She’s just taunting you with her words to shake up your determination.”

Amber nodded hard at Jonathan with approval. As the latter held her hand all this while, it gave her a massive sense of reassurance.

During this time, the dark devil image Felicia had morphed into drifted over to them slowly. In the blink of an eye, the dark devil appeared right in front of them.

Amber felt a cold and resentful aura the moment the dark devil hovered over her. However, she tried her best to remain calm.

Suddenly, the dark devil opened up its wide mouth. An elongated tongue shot out of the mouth in an instant, like a demonic snake’s forked tongue. The tongue moved around playfully before suddenly making a swoop at Amber.

As the tongue moved at lightning speed, Amber could not even react in time to block it. Fortunately, Jonathan had fast reflexes and an acute vision. He immediately fired the flamethrower in his hands to fight off the tongue. Instantly, blue luminous flames blasted out of the flamethrower.

The luminous flames gave off sparks that shone divinely in the night’s darkness. Ruthlessly, the flames slashed like a blade at the dark devil’s tongue.

Hiss!

As the flame sizzled the tongue, the dark devil let out a shrill scream.

At the same time, it backed down immediately.

Instantly, Amber felt her hands lighten up. Jonathan had left her side to chase after the dark devil.

However, the latter suddenly vanished into thin air, never to be found again.

In a jiffy, Amber heard the dark devil’s deranged laughter again, and Felicia suddenly appeared behind her.

Amber felt chills down her back, as she was scared out of her wits. She was prepared to launch her flamethrower after turning her back around. However, Felicia’s reflexes were simply too fast, and she dodged Amber’s move. The latter’s flamethrower blasted a blue flame and missed Felicia narrowly.

Amber pointed her flamethrower to her front and started firing off in random directions. At the same time, she shouted frantically at Jonathan, “Jonathan, save me!”

Jonathan had chased after Felicia earlier. Suddenly, he broke out in deranged laughter. Sneering coldly, he said, “Amber, you fell for the trick. Did you think I asked you here to eliminate Felicia together? I lured you here so we can finish you off. Felicia and I are in this together.”

Amber was devastated by his words. Even then, she could not make sense of what was happening.

At the same time, Jonathan and Felicia both inched toward Amber menacingly.

Amber was terrified as she continued to retreat.

“Captain Johnson! Captain Johnson!” Suddenly, Jonathan realized Amber wore a look of terror on her face. It turned out Jonathan had never let go of Amber. He did not chase after the dark devil either.

It was all Amber’s hallucination.

What actually happened was Jonathan had used his flamethrower to fight off the dark devil. Soon after, the latter vanished.

However, it was Amber who broke free from Jonathan’s hand at that time. After that, she aimed her flamethrower at Jonathan instead. The blue flames from the flamethrower shot out like sharp, fiery

blades. The flames were nearly ten times more lethal than usual firearms. Jonathan had to nimbly evade the flames by moving out of the way.

At this time, Jonathan heard Felicia’s voice in his mind. “You mere mortal, do you really think you can take me down with such a simple weapon? Dump your weapon on the ground now, or I’ll let that girl die a self-incendiary death,” said Felicia.

Jonathan’s steely gaze remained unfazed. He watched Amber move back against the wall, looking terrified. Amber was still blasting away with her flamethrower in a crazed manner. With a tiny slip-up, she might end up setting herself on fire.

The power of the flamethrower was formidable. That meant Amber’s life was in peril any moment now.

Even though Jonathan was aware of Amber’s precarious position, he did not intend to call a truce with Felicia. In a cold snicker, Jonathan replied, “Felicia, even if I dispose of the flamethrower now, you are still going to take our lives. Do you think I’m that foolish?”

“Are you going to blatantly watch your girlfriend die in front of you? Once that flame lands on her face, it will destroy her looks. I feel sorry for her as she will lose her pretty face,” Felicia mocked scathingly at Jonathan.

With nonchalance, Jonathan uttered, “I never said she was my girlfriend. Why would I bring her here if she is really my girlfriend?”

“Haha…” Felicia laughed sinisterly and remarked, “What a cold-hearted man. You are a callous cad. Since you don’t care about her, I shouldn’t feel sorry for you then. Get ready to bury her!”

After Felicia said that, Amber’s hysterical state worsened.

The latter suddenly aimed the flamethrower at her own face.

With lightning-fast reflexes, Jonathan utilized one of his skills – the Antelope Rhythm. In the blink of an eye, he dashed in front of Amber and quickly grabbed hold of her wrist.

At that moment, an icy glint flashed from Amber’s eyes. Her reflexes were even quicker than Jonathan’s. Miraculously, she avoided Jonathan when the latter tried to grab her. At the same time, Amber turned her flamethrower onto Jonathan’s back in an attempt to torch him.

Her actions were so rapid that Jonathan could not respond fast enough this time.

Immediately, he could feel the liquified gas piping on his flamethrower catch fire.

Damn it! Jonathan cursed inwardly as he knew he was fooled. The random sparks from the flamethrower were going off in all directions behind him. Once the liquefied gas can caught fire, it would soon explode.

Realizing the disastrous consequences, Jonathan broke out in a cold sweat immediately. As the liquified gas can was strapped onto Jonathan’s back tightly, he had to act fast in this crisis. Summoning great strength, Jonathan tore away all protective equipment on him. With lightning speed, he removed the liquefied gas can from his back. Next, he shut off the supply valve of the liquefied gas can. As the liquefied gas piping already caught fire, Jonathan quickly used some force to clamp down the fire.

Once he did so, the oxygen to the fire was directly cut off. Subsequently, the fiery sparks of fire were extinguished.

Before Jonathan could catch his breath, he was on tenterhooks once more. Lifting his head, he saw Amber trying to set her own liquefied gas piping on fire this time.

There was no time to lose as there were fiery sparks everywhere.

As there was no time for any deliberation, Jonathan tore Amber’s protective equipment away from her. Next, Jonathan removed her liquefied gas can in a hurry. Then he extinguished the fire sparks from the liquefied gas piping. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

When all that was done, Jonathan suddenly realized Amber’s gaze had turned clear – she finally regained her consciousness.

Amber calmed herself down after narrowly escaping her own death. Her forehead was covered with sweat drops. “What happened?” asked Amber.

Jonathan heaved a sigh and replied, “You were hypnotized in a hallucination. Our weapons are all gone.”

Amber peered at the torn liquefied gas piping. Instantly, her face fell as she uttered, “What shall we do now?” In Amber’s hallucination, she saw Jonathan and Felicia combining forces on her. That made her terrified for her life. However, she could not recall most of what happened after that.

Jonathan ignored Amber for a while. He looked up into the air and said, “Felicia, I’ve underestimated you indeed. However, there’s one thing I don’t understand.”

In front of the office desk, a dark mist appeared. Gradually, that mist morphed into Felicia’s image.

Felicia sat there looking as alluringly beautiful as before. However, her icy gaze remained undeniably cold-blooded and murderous.

“What don’t you understand?” asked Felicia.

Jonathan grabbed Amber’s hand in a swipe. That made the latter feel immensely reassured.

Then Jonathan turned to Felicia and asked, “Earlier on, you could have taken my life. Why didn’t you do so?” Jonathan was a smart person. He was aware of how Felicia had controlled Amber and sped up

her reflex and actions.

While Jonathan was dismantling the protective equipment on his body, Felicia could have made her move on him. There was also another opportunity for her to do so while he removed the liquefied gas can on his body. Finally, there was a chance yet again when Jonathan removed the liquefied gas can on Amber. There were umpteenth chances for Felicia to make her move on Jonathan. However, she did not do so.

All of these baffled Jonathan greatly.

Felicia remained indifferent at first. Suddenly, she laughed sinisterly and said, “This is a boring place indeed. Finally, I have someone who can play with me. Hence, I won’t let you die so easily.”

With Felicia’s words, Amber recalled how animal predators liked to torture their prey before devouring them up.

Amber’s heart was in a frenzy as the situation got horrifyingly out of hand. Instantly, she lost her bravery. Suddenly, she did not feel so courageous anymore. She understood that Felicia was not just a normal living thing or being. In fact, the latter had exceeded all concepts of beings that were understood by mortals.

This time, however, Jonathan smiled lightly. He commented, “Felicia, I’m sure you’ve read novels and watched dramas. Usually, it’s the antagonists’ wish to eliminate the protagonist. After countless meaningless taunts by the antagonist, the protagonist still wins in the end. You have the chance to defeat me now but you are sparing my life. Isn’t this…”

“Haha…” Felicia broke into demented laughter when she heard Jonathan’s words.
