Chapter 423 Bloodbath
Paxton got every man in Alton out there, nearly turning the whole of Alton upside down, but there was no sign of Catherine.
Catherine just disappeared from the world. There was no trace of her. Paxton returned to Branden with a defeated look. He didn’t find Catherine but got a crucial piece of information.
“Sir, could it be that the men from Asmein have made a move on Miss Swann?”
Paxton handed Branden the latest findings. They had all thought that Catherine was Dr. Dunn’s student, and this time, the information they found out shocked them.
It turned out that Catherine was not Dr. Dunn’s student but the developer of the robot, Seven. If what Dr. Dunn said was accurate and the robot Seven was Dr. Seven, then Catherine would most likely be the father of wheat, the person behind Dr. Seven.
These men from Asmein never gave up and were still investigating Dr. Seven’s whereabouts even after they were interrupted last time.
There were no eternal secrets in the world. Since they could find out about the information, these men from Asmein could do so with some effort.
If anyone could lay hands on Catherine, then the agents from Asmein were the most likely to do so.
The man listened attentively to Paxton’s analysis. The more he listened, the more absorbed he became, and the more he felt that what Paxton said made sense. Finally, Branden suddenly stood up. Paxton was shocked and confused as he saw this.
“Sir, what are you doing?”
Branden stared coldly ahead, walking in the direction of the gate with a chilling and powerful aura. Without looking back, he said, “Go and teach those bastards from Asmein a lesson!”
“Pfft…” Paxton barely caught his breath. It looked like Branden was furious and was about to cause a bloodbath in the world for Catherine.
To prevent things from getting out of control, Paxton hurriedly followed behind. He was mentally prepared to risk his life to give advice.
That night, several of Alton’s branches and important intelligence stations in Asmein were attacked by an unknown organization. The other party showed no mercy, and it looked more like retaliation than anything else.
Asmein’s intelligence stations suffered a severe blow, shocking several important decision-makers in Asmein.
That night, an emergency meeting was held.
They tried to negotiate but only got a result they could not have imagined. The other party came for Dr. Seven and asked them to release him immediately.
The people from Asmein had been investigating for so long without any news of Dr. Seven. How could they release him?
If they had Dr. Seven, they would have started negotiations with the neighboring country long ago. There was no way they could have waited until this time.
Inside the villa.
Paxton carefully walked into the empty hall, which was permeated with a silent and cold atmosphere. Over a night, they offended the entire Asmein. They turned Alton upside down but still couldn’t find any trace of Catherine.
“Sir, news came back from Asmein. After they lost in Zerwick last time, they didn’t give up on searching for Dr. Seven, but they didn’t gain much. And they said that if we’re willing to stop, they’re willing to do their best to cooperate with us to find Miss Swann!”
This was already the biggest compromise Asmein had ever made. They suffered a significant loss for no reason, and now they even offered assistance to the other party.
They were so miserable!
Branden waved his hand impatiently, leaving the matter for Paxton to decide. All he wanted to do now was think about where Catherine could possibly be.
No matter what, he should find Catherine first.
On Scorpion Island.
Carlo still couldn’t digest the news. He was dumbfounded for a long time and still couldn’t believe that Catherine was the instructor.
“Cory, are you sure you’re right? Instructor? Catherine? I can’t equate the two!”
Cory came to his judgment after a long time of observation as well, and he felt that Catherine shouldn’t have specifically concealed herself from them, or else it should have been difficult for him to detect her identity.
“Do you think Catherine is capable?”
Facing Cory’s question, Carlo immediately nodded. “Of course! She’s awesome. We couldn’t beat her back then when we fought three to one.”
That was true. The three of them were no match for her alone. What was more, the three of them had grown up training together.
“What about the instructor?” Cory pressed on.
At the mention of the instructor, Carlo had his eyes full of admiration, and his faith in the instructor was second only to Catherine. “That goes without saying. The instructor’s strength is obvious to all of us. He’s invincible and awesome!”
“Then why do you think the instructor can’t be Catherine? Their fighting skills were the same, and their figures were also similar!”
Cory’s question froze Carlo.
“Why couldn’t they be the same person? Is it because of the subconscious discrimination in my mind? Is it because I think women are inferior to men?”
A slight blush appeared on Carlo’s face at the thought. He was ashamed of himself for having such thoughts.
He shouldn’t have had such thoughts at all. To dispel the doubt in his mind, Carlo decided to get to the bottom of it.
“Cory, I’m going to find the instructor!
After saying that, Carlo stood up and chased in the direction Catherine left. Cory originally wanted to call out to him but eventually gave up after some thought.
According to Carlo’s character, he would not be satisfied until he clarified the questions. Halfway, Jon ran into Carlo and stopped him.
“0398, why don’t you participate in weight training? Where are you going?”
Trainers here had no names, no regions, and even no races. People would call them by their assigned number when they came here. That number would stay with them from the moment they stepped into Scorpion Island until they left.
“Instructor Jon, I have something I’d like to ask Mr. Anon about, and I’m going to find him!”
Jon shot a glance at Carlo. He had always been quite favorable to Carlo, but he didn’t expect Carlo to be so bold as to go and find Anon.
“Go ahead. Be careful. He’s not that easygoing.”
The last simple sentence sent a chill down Carlo’s spine. Jon was right. Anon had an unpredictable personality, and no one could imagine what would happen if he was pissed off.
Carlo was a little torn. But only a second later, he figured it out. He still wanted the truth. He went to the door of Anon’s lounge and took the initiative to knock on it.
“Mr. Anon, this is 0398. Are you there?”
Catherine had just changed her clothes and was about to rest, not expecting Carlo to come to her. She was aware of what Carlo was up to.
It must be that when she attacked just now, the other party recognized her after seeing her fighting skills.
Catherine didn’t redress into her disguise suit and directly opened the door.
The moment the door opened, Carlo, standing in the doorway, gulped nervously.
But in the next second, he was utterly shocked.
What Cory had said was absolutely right. Their instructor was really Catherine.
