Gene Unlocking: I Evolve Every Day

Chapter 348: Chapter 307: Screaming Your Lungs Out Is Useless (Part 2)

He was leaning against the door frame, smiling at everyone.

At the sight of this man, Edward Morgan gasped, his voice trembling as he said, ”You... you’re the Ancestor?”

Juno Morgan was so frightened that his heart nearly stopped!

The remaining thirty or so members of the Morgan Clan were all equally stunned, their eyes nearly bursting from their sockets!

They never imagined that with such stringent surveillance outside, the Ancestor could still appear here silently!

The crucial point was that the bodyguards and warriors outside seemed to have no reaction at all.

It was unclear whether there was an inside traitor, or if those surveillance devices simply couldn’t detect the Ancestor’s presence.

Whatever the case, the Ancestor had now appeared and was standing right in front of everyone.

Edward Morgan knew that the time for them to fulfill the family mission had come!

Upon realizing this, Edward Morgan didn’t care if the Ancestor responded or not, he immediately shouted at the top of his lungs, ”The Ancestor is here! Fire the cannons! Quickly, damn it, fire so we can be destroyed here along with the Ancestor!”

His voice was hoarse from shouting.

The other Morgan family members also showed a resolute expression, as if ready for death.

Yet Lu Li, leaning against the door frame, chuckled lightly, ”Go ahead and shout, all of you, shout together, let’s see if anyone comes even if you scream your lungs out.”

As soon as these words came out, Edward Morgan, who had just stood up to shout, immediately realized something and fell back into his chair in shock.

Juno Morgan’s face also turned ashen.

The remaining thirty or so Morgan family members were in utter despair.

They were very clear on one thing: the fact that the Ancestor dared let them all shout meant he wasn’t afraid of their voices getting out at all.

That is to say, tonight, they are most likely doomed to die!

Sacrifice didn’t scare Edward Morgan, Juno Morgan, and the others.

What they feared was dying in vain, unable to destroy the Ancestor along with them.

Unfortunately, they realized that tonight would indeed be a wasted sacrifice.

This left Edward Morgan, Juno Morgan, and the other thirty or so people utterly powerless.

Clearly, they had arranged so many bodyguard warriors and formidable weapons.

Clearly, they had installed surveillance devices across a radius of several kilometers.

In the end, they couldn’t resist the Ancestor, nor did anyone even notice how he got in.

This was undoubtedly horrifying.

Edward Morgan, Juno Morgan, and the others could foresee that with the Ancestor’s ability, no country in the world could defend against him.

In short, if the Ancestor wanted to kill someone, he definitely could!

Their glorious Morgan family, with over a century of history, was likely to be completely destroyed after tonight!

At this moment, Edward Morgan, Juno Morgan, and the others were filled with regret.

Regret that they had provoked such a powerful existence as the Ancestor.

To the point of bringing an annihilative disaster to the family!

...

Elsewhere.

An experienced counter-surveillance leader was in the monitoring room, directing everyone.

The counter-surveillance leader spoke into the headset, ”I’ll say it again, there must be no slips today. Mr. Morgan spent a fortune to hire us to protect his family’s safety, and we made strong comments to the outside world that if anything happens to Mr. Morgan and his people tonight, it’s not just our reputation at stake but the face of the entire Bald Eagle!”

”Understood!”

”Rest assured.”

The voices in the headset responded one after another.

Someone asked, ”Boss, do you think the Ancestor will come tonight?”

The leader pondered for a moment and said, ”Since the Ancestor appeared in New York, he’s definitely targeting Mr. Morgan here. I feel there’s a high chance he’ll come tonight, but it’s okay, we’ve installed advanced surveillance equipment over several kilometers around. If there’s the slightest anomaly, we’ll act immediately, not giving him any chance!”

Everyone responded, ”Okay!”

The leader repeated, ”Don’t, under any circumstances, let there be even the slightest slip.”

This time they weren’t just protecting the Morgan family, but representing the entire Bald Eagle’s reputation.

If the Ancestor really did something to the Morgan family tonight, and they couldn’t stop it, the consequences would be unimaginable.

They would become the laughing stock of countries worldwide!

Half an hour passed.

The group remained in a state of heightened alert, continuously checking for any unusual situations.

So far, all was calm.

In the monitoring room, the leader asked anxiously, ”Have you found anything?”

A warrior lurking outside immediately responded, ”No, nothing has happened.”

The leader was genuinely afraid the Ancestor had already infiltrated, ”What about the others?”

”Nothing happening on our side either,” another bodyguard replied promptly.

The leader said, ”Even though nothing has happened right now, we still can’t let our guard down, stay alert for any threats.”

Over a hundred people responded, their Spiritual Power even more focused.

The leader kept watching the surveillance footage but indeed found no anomalies.

Initially, seeing that everything was fine, everyone felt somewhat relieved.

However, as time went on, everyone felt a bit puzzled.

Why were the lights in the meeting room still on?

The Morgan family members started the meeting around eight in the evening, and now it was almost eleven at night.

Hadn’t they finished discussing their strategies in three hours?

Several bodyguards and warriors couldn’t help but decide to go to the meeting room to check.

But who would have thought that there was no one in the meeting room, as if they just forgot to turn off the lights.

”So the meeting ended long ago, and the lights were left on.”

”I was wondering how a meeting could last three hours, haha.”

”How did it end long ago? I didn’t see any Morgan family members returning to their respective rooms on the surveillance footage!”

”Huh?”

”What?”

Everyone was suddenly alarmed and quickly dispatched people to each bedroom to see if the Morgan family members were there.

Quickly, they checked every corner of the estate, then they were utterly horrified.

All the members of the Morgan family had disappeared completely under their very noses!

At this moment, both the leader and the two hundred bodyguards and warriors felt extremely frustrated.

They had prepared so much equipment and weapons to counter the Ancestor tonight, yet they didn’t even catch a glimpse of him, and the thirty or so targets they were supposed to protect had vanished.

This was undoubtedly a slap to their faces.

A slap to the face of the entire Bald Eagle!

The disappearance of thirty or so members of the Morgan family overnight couldn’t possibly be concealed.

Everyone could imagine that once this incident was revealed tomorrow, it would cause a massive shock throughout the world, resulting in great uproar globally, and... bring immense disgrace to the Bald Eagle!

However, now was not the time to worry about disgrace. The leader and his team knew they had an even more daunting task; since the Ancestor had quietly come here and taken thirty or so members of the Morgan family, he would most likely head to other locations with Morgan family members and capture them all in one go.

They absolutely couldn’t allow such a thing to happen!

This place had already fallen. If other places fell as well, they would not only become a laughingstock, but also a synonym for incompetence!

The leader acted decisively, immediately contacting the leaders responsible for protecting other Morgan family members, intending to have them prepare for a stronger force to halt the Ancestor’s rampage!
