Chapter 575: Capturing an Affected
” Invaders are not limited to animal like creatures but even plants and trees were affected by it, and so were humans, their bodies possessed a strange kind of aura and wherever that aura crossed a certain limit it began to affect the entire bodies of humans.
Many of them died by being exposed to that aura and some fortunate ones were able to inherit some kind of ability from that aura, these people are called ‘AFFECTED’.
But we later found out that that is not the only way to turn into an affected, by eating a special organ of those Invaders, humans could get even stronger abilities but the chances of turning into something non humane is very high in that case.
Any doubts so far? ” Ron asked after he stopped speaking, while he was explaining slides kept showing various photos behind him.
” How were you able to stop them? ” Jayden asked.
” Only because of Arcane, are so many people still alive, had they not come forward when everything became a mess then only a few of us would have been able to survive. ” Ron answered, in a proud tone.
” Then at this research facility, what exactly are you doing? ” Jayden asked another question.
” We- We research on the bodies of invaders, that is also one of the reasons why we were able to create many weapons from their bodies but so far we could only create weapons with elemental properties. ” Ron added after thinking for a few seconds.
Jayden nodded he had more or less gotten an idea of how everything became like this and what was happening currently, he concluded that Arcane had become one of the strongest power of Earth, but he couldn’t take his mind away from the fact that Sydney had died because of him.
” We were able to secure a big part where we can live safely, also a lot of changes had occurred recently in the financial-
Wait, there is something even more interesting, recently a few people had reported that they had seen a black coloured dragon flying in the distant, though there is no proof yet and that dragon had not attacked us so fa- ” Ron began to explain even further but he was interrupted by Jayden.
” Alright that much is fine, thanks for telling us all this but we can manage everything else on our own from here on. ” After saying that he stood up and began to walk out of there along with the rest of his family.
Ron panicked and hastily walked in front of Jayden, forcing a smile on his face he spoke: ” W- Wait… Actually, I need your help with something else, can you spare some of your tim- ”
Jayden stretched his hand and squeezed Ron’s throat, then he smashed Ron’s body him against a wall as a loud sound rang out, Ron’s body hit the hard wall, and his head began to bleed he might also have broken a couple of bones.
” Stop right here, if you don’t want to see your wife and son burning right in front of you. ” Jayden’s eyes glowed red in anger, after a couple of second he let go of his throat and threw him away then without looking back he walked away.
Ron coughed violently for a few minutes and only came back to his senses several seconds after Jayden had walked away from him, his entire body shivered in fear he didn’t even dare to call for the security for help.
Jayden and the rest of his family walked into the corridor, all of them could feel that Jayden was in a very bad mood right now and he was just trying to hold it in.
The reason Ron was going out of his way to help Jayden was because he wanted to use his body to perform some experiments, just like the experiments that were being performed on the humans who had turned into Affected.
He wanted to make all of them unconscious by adding something to their drink but if that didn’t work he also had called for people to use force, according to Arcane everyone who had become an Affected could no longer be considered human.
Many of the affected had died during the experiments, and seeing Jayden’s ability which was nothing like any other, Ron wanted to make him a test subject.
While Jayden was walking out of the corridor, over a dozen men holding guns stepped in front of him, they all had been informed why Jayden was called here and they were tasked to capture him if the first plan failed.
” Stop right there, raise your hands and kneel on the ground all of you, if you don’t comply we will shoot without mercy. ”
One of the men spoke, the guns they were holding were not normal the speed and penetration power of the bullets were many times stronger than ordinary ones, they were designed specially to kill Invaders and Affected.
Even the bullets were made of some special metal, despite the warning from all those soldiers, Jayden showed no signs of fear and didn’t stop as he continued to walk forward.
Seeing this Ron wanted to stop those men from doing anything stupid since Jayden had proven himself a lot more stronger than he had expected.
It was all out of his calculation so only death would come to them if they tried anything now. Ron was not able to move and could only yell because he was lying on the floor, looking towards those men he shouted:
” Don’t do anything and just let him leave, you can not handle him. Don’t do anything. ” But those guards weren’t able to clearly hear Ron’s words they even thought that he was trying to encourage them to capture Jayden alive in any case.
Jayden was not even looking towards the men standing in front of him , his head was tilted down while he walked so it was impossible to see his expression but his aura seemed extremely violent right now.
He couldn’t help but remember all the memories he had shared with Sydney all those years ago, but now because of him she had met such a cruel fate, he couldn’t even imagine how those creatures would have killed her, the pain, the despair she felt, Jayden was feeling as if his head was about to burst open.
” Sir, Target is not stopping, what are your next orders? ”
One of the men asked, their guns were already pointing straight at Jayden and the rest, soon their number had increased from a dozen men to more than twenty men, and the number kept increasing since they had received Ron’s words about capturing a dangerous Affected.
” We need him alive, and it’s only him that we need, so shoot his legs it doesn’t matter if the ones behind him get hurt during the shooting, capturing him right now is our top priority. ”
After the command was given, all the men did not hold back any longer and then pressed the triggers of their guns while aiming for Jayden’s legs, as the bullets shot out of the guns all the bullets released various kinds of lights and aura.
