Chapter 933 The Burden Carried

A day later, in the conference room of the Headquarters of the American Watchmen, there were many

people sitting in the conference room, and those people all had a solemn look on their faces.

All the leaders of various Night Watches, including those above the level of Half-Step Flame Decay

from all over the world, gathered together.

In the past year and a half, most people on Earth had progressed quickly, and the sealed energy had

been released. Earth had begun to become suitable for martial arts.

Geniuses had appeared over the years, and those who were once geniuses had improved rapidly.

The remaining members of Team 11762 all arrived, including Theo, Kristen, and others who had all

reached the level of peak Half-Step Flame Decay.

In a year and a half, they had all reached that level.

In addition, the experts from the Four Ancient Families also sent many representatives, most of whom

were

at the level of Flame Decay.

Within the Four Ancient Families, there were many experts at the level of peak Flame Decay. With the

help of their marrow, many people had made great breakthroughs and directly reached the level of

Flame Decay.

In fact, Earth’s overall strength had a qualitative leap.

Blaine sat on the main seat with a sad expression on his pale face. He held a cigarette in his hand and

said faintly, “Everyone has finished reading it. Is there anything you want to say?”

“I heard…” At that time, someone below asked, “I heard that Gerald has gone to that planet?”

Blaine looked at him and nodded. “Well, this is true. I don’t know who told you, but don’t tell anyone

about this. When you go back, ask the person who told you to keep his mouth shut.”

Zackary’s face was etched with a hint of sadness as he spoke. “If the records are true, then it is a great

concern. Gerald and his companions not only aim to take action against the Four Ancient Families but

also to gather information about them and Nether Palace. I hope they will return with plenty of useful

information.

It seems that they will be back soon.”

Just then, Robert frowned slightly and raised his head. “About Isla, the person who attacked me was

Aarav, and he seriously injured me with a slap. His strength can be described as unfathomable. I

wonder if he will…”

While they were talking, everyone’s faces became even more solemn.

Naturally, Gerald had no idea what happened on Earth. After reaching the supreme level of Flame

Decay,

Geraid absorbed energy quickly. At that stage, Gerald had a lot more experience in the use of attribute-

related ability. He sensed that after reaching that stage, it was all about honing his attribute-related

ability

There were strengths and weaknesses among the attributes, and the development of it determined

how far the level of Flame Decay would go.

Time passed, and the next day, Carolyn successfully broke through the supreme level of Flame Decay.

Previously, she had made great progress in her cultivation in Corona Pool Coupled with the terrifying

energy of the first level, her breakthrough was considered logical.

The progress of Valery was also quite obvious.

With Carolyn’s breakthrough, the strength of their team once again improved greatly.

As for Valery and Anabel, it was actually quite difficult to break through the level of Flame Decay.

Time passed, and the third day also come.

Gerald could feel his improvement, but it had only been three days. His improvement was limited.

Three days passed quietly. At a certain point, Gerald felt as if he had encountered another bottleneck.

He opened his eyes and murmured, “It seems that if I continue to practice like this, my progress has

already stopped. I wonder how I should proceed on the path ahead?”

Carolyn and the other two girls still had their eyes closed.

“Huh?” Gerald’s expression suddenly changed as he looked at Anabel.

A blush suddenly appeared on Anabel’s face. The next moment, she opened her mouth and spat out a

mouthful of blood.

“What’s wrong?” Gerald was shocked and hurriedly asked.

“Forcibly breaking through the supreme level of Flame Decay…” Anabel shook her head and said, “I

don’t have

much time left.”

“There’s no need for that.” Gerald frowned. “Take it slow. Just let nature take its course.”

Anabel shook her head and said, “If I reach the supreme level of Flame Decay before I turn thirty, my

status will be completely different. I’m responsible for the Pierce family in Mullen City, and I want to try

again!”

Valery and Carolyn also opened their eyes.

Gerald looked at Anabel. At that instant, he felt that they were in the same boat.

Anabel’s goal was to bear the burden of the rise of the Pierce family in Mullen City.

Gerald and his companions, on the other hand, were responsible for the survival of Earth.

“Can you treat me? I want to try again!” Anabel looked at Valery and asked in a pleading way.

Valery looked at Gerald questioningly.

Gerald sighed. “Let her try.”

If they were to force their way through, they might suffer a backlash if they failed,

In fact, Gerald’s practice had been relatively smooth. He had encountered some bottlenecks, such as

from

the top level to the super level, he had been stuck for three years. But after that, it was a piece of cake.

Even when he encountered some bottlenecks, he had never forcibly broken through a certain

threshold. Most of the time, it came naturally, which was because of his talent.

Anabel was indeed very talented, but she was weaker than Gerald and Carolyn. In Gerald’s opinion,

she and Theo were actually on the same level.

If Theo was in Havotune Galaxy and had Anabel’s resources, he would probably be a little better than

her.

Valery nodded. She looked at Anabel and said worriedly, “Don’t be too forceful.”

When Anabel heard Gerald and Valery’s words, a smile appeared on her face, as if they had affirmed

her words, which made her very happy.

“I don’t mind pushing myself. As long as I’m still breathing, I believe you can save me,” Anabel said.

With that, she gritted her teeth, fumbled inside her backpack, and found a blood-red pill.

Anabel said, “This is the secret treasure of the Pierce family in Mullen City. It seems to have been

passed down from ancient times. It’s called Energy Condensing Pill. The method of making it has been

lost, and now there is only one left. It can stimulate talent.”

Gerald frowned and asked, “Passed down from ancient times? It’s not expired, right?”

Anabel was dumbfounded. She did not expect Gerald to be thinking about that..

Gerald continued, “Besides, I’m afraid this pill might have some side effects as well.”

Anabel nodded and said, “There will be some side effects, but I can’t care so much anymore. I’ll try

again!”

Seeing how determined she was, Gerald stopped persuading her.

After Valery treated Anabel for a while, the latter took the pill and closed her eyes. Vital Energy began

to

fluctuate around her body.

Valery looked at Gerald and asked, “Are you not going to continue?”

“Yeah.” Gerald nodded. “I’ve also encountered a bottleneck. It doesn’t seem to be working anymore if I

continue to absorb energy.”

“Then you can continue watching her. Wake me up if there’s anything. I’ll continue practicing.” Valery

said.

Gerald nodded.

He stood up and strolled around the area. He did not have much to watch, so he waited patiently for

the third

day to arrive…

Anabel’s breath was unpredictable. Gerald looked at her breath. After a while, the breath on Anabel’s

body

began to stabilize.

“Did you succeed?” Gerald’s expression changed slightly.

At some point, Anabel opened her eyes, and a light flickered across her eyes. The Vital Energy of the

supreme

level of Flame Decay surged out of her body!

“It worked!” There was excitement in her eyes.

Meanwhile, in the level below Anabel, Sylvie, who was wearing a veil and had silver hair, opened her

eyes almost at the same time. There was a smile in her eyes as she said, “Supreme level of Flame

Decay.”

After saying that, her aura quickly recovered and transformed into the appearance of the level of peak

Flame

Decay.
