Chapter 1244


    "This result was supposed to stay in the scientific world, but who would have thought that many


    ambitious bigwigs valued the power of this research that managed to destroy an entire vige.


    "Magnates from all sorts of industries tried to get their hands on it. Some wanted to use the


    biochemical weapon to be more powerful while some simply did not want it to fall into the


    wrong hands. Thus began a treasure-seizing battle.


    "Countless mercenaries, special agents, and gangsters joined this battle of wits and courage. This


    was a bloody fight where the big fishes ate the small, and the small fishes grouped to form allies.


    "In the end, Doomsday annexed all other forces and earned the title of the most formidable and


    mysterious organization at the time. Doomsday’smander had also risen to fame after the world


    war.


    "After winning the world war, everyone suddenly remembered that the purpose of the war was to


    seize the treasure. But where was the treasure?


    "Mr. Boye had disappeared mysteriously.

    "Doomsday’smander started treasure hunting.


    "For other generals like us, it was a lonely journey to


    seek the treasure aimlessly, therefore Old Master Severe and I decided to leave Doomsday


    together.


    "We were tired of the never-ending war and just wanted to seek peace, so we returned to Imperial


    Capital to lead normal lives.


    "The Doomsdaymander suspected that we fled with the treasure and sent men to hunt us


    down. We hid in Imperial Capital, which was still a remote ce at the time, and managed to get


    away with it.


    "I went incognito in Imperial Capital, established a business, and expanded my family. One day,


    your father brought your mother to the Ares family with great delight. He told me that they really


    loved each other. But when I looked at Chloe’s face, I knew who she was at once. I was terrified and


    guarded against her constantly.


    "It had never urred to me that she would end up killing your grandma one day. To date, I still


    have no idea why she would hurt your grandma. She was just a weak and helpless woman.”


    Grand Old Master Ares sighed when he mentioned this. "I was constantly thinking about it all these


    years. Why couldn''t your mother and your grandma live in peace? I love your grandma and your


    mother killed my lover. I admit that I hated her, but I didn''t kill her because of your dad.


    "I imprisoned her, hoping that she wille clean and let your father know her true intentions for


    coming to the Ares family. But many years passed and your mother still showed no evil intentions. I


    was the one who doubted myself instead. Perhaps her love for your dad was true?"


    Grand Old Master Ares fell silent.


    His deep wrinkles had formed even deeper wrinkles.


    Fine beads of cold sweat broke out on Jay''s back.


    What puzzled Grandpa greatly was the fact that he was unable to tell whether his mother or his


    grandma was innocent.


    Grand Old Master Ares got up from the wheelchair with trembling movements and tottered toward


    the bookshelf at the back.


    He punched a button on the wall and the bookcase shifted, revealing a wall. There was a hidden


    drawer embedded in the wall.


    Grand Old Master Ares entered the password, pulled out the drawer, and took out a box.


    With the box in his arms, Grand Old Master Ares tottered up to Jay and handed the box to Jay with


    trembling hands. "After I imprisoned your mother, she knew that there was no way she was going to


    see the sun again, so she entrusted this to me and asked me t o pass this to you. She also wanted


    me to say this to you. If you still acknowledge her as your mother, then she hopes that you can


    return to the Yorks one day."


    Jay took the box with a heavy heart. When he saw the box''s seal, he looked slightly astonished.


    The seal was fit together with triple zigzags and three rows of codes, each with eight zigzags. It


    could only be opened if a sequencebination of all 24 numbers were keyed in correctly.


    Jay thought for a moment and entered his birthday digits.


    Then, the box opened surprisingly.


    Jay was momentarily stunned. His mother''s love for him was reflected in such a subtle detail.


    Inside the box was an ess token to Doomsday, several ultra-realistic masks, and several


    advanced weapons.


    Grand Old Master Ares was astonished when he saw the token.
