Chapter 169

As soon as Orpheus spoke, several people immediately stood up and pulled out their weapons.

A surge of uncontrollable rage flooded Seafarion’s mind, nearly overwhelming his senses.

His men weren’t faring any better. Though they had inhaled a smaller dose than he had, their tolerance was lower. The moment they were provoked, they lost control in the blink of an eye, transforming into massive orcas.

Orpheus’s eyes lit up with excitement. He thought, ‘It really worked.

The office had been sprayed with AcroMist, a substance he had obtained from Edmund. It was said to induce loss of control without anyone noticing.

According to their plan, once Seafarion inhaled the AeroMist, he would gradually lose his reason. With Edmund’s help, Orpheus could then imprison or even eliminate him, taking his place.

However, he hadn’t expected Seafarion to act so decisively, forcing him to reveal his hidden forces ahead of schedule.

Even though the plan had changed, it wasn’t a big problem.

A ruthless glint flashed in Orpheus’s eyes. Confirming that Seafarion had already lost control, he gave the order to his accomplices, “Move quickly–kill all the witnesses.”

As long as they kept the information contained within this area, they could pin the murders on the out–of–control Seafarion.

“Y–You… Why are you betraying Sea Race?” One of the Sea Race employees trembled with despair.

“Betraying Sea Race?” Orpheus scoffed and shook his head. “I’m just replacing him as the clan leader. Under my rule, Sea Race will only grow stronger.”

Working with Edmund was a huge risk, but the greater the risk, the greater the reward. Orpheus had been suppressed by Seafarion for too long, and he was unwilling to endure it any longer.

His gaze turned cold as he stared at Seafarion, filled with jealousy.

Orpheus thought, ‘How could a cripple like him deserve the position of clan leader? The leader should be me.‘

Consumed by resentment, Orpheus raised his particle gun and aimed it at Seafarion.

As if sensing danger, Seafarion abruptly lifted his gaze and looked straight at him.

The wild, beastly, and utterly irrational look in his eyes sent a shudder down Orpheus’s spine, filling him with fear.
