Chapter 503: Emergency (Part 6)

Amalia found it very strange.

It sounded like he was deliberately being sentimental.

She then looked at Kenny Lin, who remained unmoved, with a cold expression.

Truly, they were a family.

"As long as your body can handle the turmoil, stop wasting words. I’ve already decided," Kenny Lin said impatiently.

Mr. Lin fell silent and shot a glare at his second son.

Wasn’t it said that Kenny already knew about the events of the past?

Why did he still have this attitude?

Albert Lin rubbed his nose, feeling innocent.

How was he supposed to know why?

His older brother had told him about it.

Surely, his older brother wouldn’t lie to him about something like this—there was no benefit to it.

Mr. Lin became serious, "Kenny, I’m not joking with you. That place is very dangerous, it’s more dangerous than any other place on Earth."

"It’s not just because of that mutated creature. There’s a mysterious and unpredictable force there. When I first discovered that place, I didn’t feel much. But in the past few days, after going there several times, the feeling has grown stronger each time."

"Are you saying that this strange power is continually expanding?" Amalia quickly asked.

Mr. Lin looked at her and said, "That’s right. It’s different from the feeling the mutated creature gives me. While that creature is immensely powerful, it still feels beatable. But this force is different. With each growth, it feels increasingly insurmountable, and its aura makes one lose the will to fight."

Amalia steadied herself, "So if we unlock the secrets of the black fragments, we’ll know all the answers?"

"In theory, yes. The mutated creature’s sudden recall of all the black fragments is most likely an attempt to break through and resist this force. It’s the only way it could have any hope."

At this point, Mr. Linn added, "Do you have black fragments on you?"

"How do you know?" Amalia asked.

While they could keep it a secret from outsiders, there was no need to hide it from Mr. Lin.

"It’s simple. During the incident at Twilight Abyss Waters, several high-level mutated creatures were not only killed but also had their lairs raided. According to our information, those mutated creatures had black fragments in them, especially that Imuji, who had the most fragments. I heard they went missing and are likely now in your possession. And most importantly, you have the Lumina Scale Komodo with you."

Mr. Lin’s eyes narrowed, his shrewd gaze revealing a deep wisdom.

Hearing someone mention it, Wealth immediately popped its head out, its black, beady eyes meeting Mr. Lin’s gaze.

Startled, it quickly retreated.

Mr. Lin chuckled, "This Lumina Scale Komodo may seem weak, but its bloodline is extraordinary. Its teeth can consume any mineral. Take good care of it. You might be in for a surprise in the future."

For now, Amalia hadn’t seen any surprises, only that Wealth was becoming harder to feed.

It no longer ate anything but high-level crystal cores or high-level mutated creature meat.

"The surprise doesn’t matter. I want to go with Kenny to investigate the central disaster zone," Amalia said.

"No," several voices immediately echoed in the room.

Except for Kenny Lin, who smiled slightly, "Then let’s go together."

Mr. Lin frowned, "Her cultivation level is too low. That place is frequently visited by high-level mutated creatures. Her presence won’t help you."

From their perspective, Mr. Lin was stating a fact, and Amalia didn’t feel hurt by it.

"I won’t hold him back."

"It’s too dangerous. If your parents and grandfather knew about it, they wouldn’t allow it," Albert Lin also disapproved of her joining.

Amalia said, "I have no intention of telling them. You all have things you want to understand, and I have my own questions to answer."

Kenny Lin spoke to her gently, "Don’t mind them. My approval is enough."

The three members of the Lin family, led by Mr. Lin, were speechless.

Their son and brother had a significant other and seemed to have forgotten about the family now.

What should they do about this sudden heartbreak?

"Fine, do whatever you want. I won’t interfere," Mr. Lin decided, feeling quite resigned.

"Dad," Albert Lin and Tony Lin called out simultaneously.

"Forget it. Your brother already said we shouldn’t mind them. Do you think you can change his mind?" Mr. Lin said with a righteous tone "I’ve come to terms with it. If they really want to go, I’ll support them. After all, I’m a good father."

"You’re making it sound like we’re not good brothers," Tony Lin muttered.

Mr. Lin glared at him.

Amalia was seeing this side of the family for the first time and felt utterly astonished.

Mr. Lin’s stance was surprisingly flexible.

"You’ll get used to it," Kenny Lin said calmly, putting his arm around her waist, "Let’s go."

Shortly after the two of them left, Albert Lin and Tony Lin took Mr. Lin back to the Lin family to rest.

Since Mr. Lin was no longer guarding Fruit City No. 1 and the Lin family’s Head had returned, even Ruben Lin finally had the opportunity to return to the royal durian capital city.

The Elders Council had no choice but to send their own people to guard it.

On the other side, Regis Yoder exploded in anger when he returned and informed Raithwall Yoder of the Elders Council’s decision, leaving the rest to him.

"Father, do you believe what Klaus Lin said, that the mutated creature voluntarily stayed in the heart of the central disaster zone because there’s something there that truly threatens Earth?" Hernan Yoder was skeptical.

Raithwall Yoder’s lips curled into a cold smile, "If there really was something under the sea that was threatening Earth, the Elders Council wouldn’t be so calm."

Hernan Yoder was slightly surprised, "You mean to say that it could be an excuse Klaus Lin came up with to cover his own mistakes? If that’s the case, the Elders Council would surely be displeased with him."
