The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 277

Anna was so shocked that she couldn’t say a word. Her chest was restless and could not be calmed down for a while, it was even getting difficult for her to breath as if she had just climbed a mountain that was several kilometers above sea level. After ten seconds, only then did she say in disbelief, “How is this possible? Steel Tower is the second best fighter in our team, his strength is just second only to you, Leader Sky. But, this guy actually defeated him with one punch, is he even human? Could it be that, he’s not at Mystic rank, but he’s… An Earth ranked fighter?!” Sky nodded awkwardly and said with a bitter expression, “You might be right. Remember the car frame that killed Black Skeleton on the hillside? Not even a Peak-Mystic ranked fighter could throw such a heavy frame across several hundred meters and kill a world-class assassin.” Anna covered her small mouth with her hands, with her eyes widened in shock. Sky then smiled. “Anna, you did well. A powerful character like him must be absorbed into Divine Constabulary. You’re in charge of this. Once he successfully joins us, I’ll give you all the credit.” The two then immediately rushed downstairs. However, in reality, Sky had made a wrong assumption. Alex was not an Earth ranked fighter, but he was just a simple cultivator who was in the stage of Chi Refinement. In terms of normal combat power, he would probably be at Intermediate-Mystic rank. However, the defense of the Force was way too insane. If he were to fight seriously, the result would be much different. As for his ability to throw a car frame across several hundred meters to kill Black Skeleton, such inhuman strength like The Hulk was all due to the divine energy that his ancestor had given him… It was a matter of life and death after all during that time. The dormant divine energy that was stored in his energy core was suddenly activated and flowed throughout his body, granting him godlike assistance in that instant. Even now, the divine energy inside his body kept surging. Hence, he was able to send Steel Tower flying with one punch. However, he could clearly feel that the divine energy given his ancestor seemed depleting at a fast rate, it was almost depleted as of now. Perhaps, the moment the divine energy laid dormant again, it might be extinguished completely. “Are you alright, Steel Tower?” Anna rushed out of the villa in a panic and helped Steel Tower up. She glared at Alex fiercely. “Are you serious, Rockefeller? You’ve used way too much force! Look at him, he’s bleeding!” Alex calmly put up an ostentatious act. “He’s just too weak, I only used 30% of my strength.” Anna’s slender body instantly trembled, as if she were struck by a heavy hammer. Just then, Sky approached Alex with a smile. “Anna, don’t be rude to Mr. Rockefeller. You’re always such a worrying little girl. How could you ask Steel Tower to go against Mr. Rockefeller? What if he hurt Mr. Rockefeller? Mr Rockefeller is, mhm, still an innocent citizen.” Alex secretly let out a sardonic laugh as he thought, ‘I’ve already noticed that you two were watching the battle from the third floor earlier. Why are you acting as if this has nothing to do with you?’ However, he decided not to expose Sky. After all, he was still slightly defensive toward a privileged organization like Divine Constabulary. He took a glance at Steel Tower. He knew that he could channel a flow of Chi with healing properties into his body to speed up his recovery, yet he did not do so. He thought, ‘If you dare to block my way, you have to be prepared to get hurt.’ After a brief moment, all of them entered the villa and went straight to the point. After introducing Sky’s identity, Anna said, “Since Michelle Yowell is so close to you now, she must have told you about Divine Constabulary, right? So I’ll just make this quick. The man you just killed is an international assassin that we have been tracking down for ages. His alias is Black Skeleton, he’s involved in a much bigger case.” With that, she took out a pile of photos, all of them had Black Skeleton in them. Alex took a glance and said, “What do you want to know from me?” Anna sat onto the table as she faced Alex, who was sitting on a stool. “I want to know why Black Skeleton tried to kill you. Are you involved in that case too?” “What case?” “Hmph, don’t act as if you don’ t know."
