The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection
With Husband 610

Chapter 610

No one would have imagined that children were being sent every month into this forest, with the entrance hidden within a small cave.

When Felix arrived, he stepped inside, finding scattered animal bones exactly as Louis had described. The cave was not very deep. After walking about 30 feet, he reached a dead end -a solid stone wall.

A regular person stumbling into this cave would have turned back by now. However, Felix's sharp eyes caught a small, shadowy corner above him where a concealed camera was quietly pointed in his direction. Perhaps it was his own abandonment as a child, but Felix had always despised traffickers with a burning hatred. Letting something like this slide was never an option.

Clenching his fist, he punched the stone wall with immense force, shattering it instantly. Beyond the debris was something unexpected an elevator.

Felix stepped inside, pressing down lightly with his foot. The immense pressure triggered. the elevator, sending it plummeting downward at breakneck speed. "Intruder alert!" The alarms blared throughout the underground lab beneath the cave, sending guards racing toward the elevator's location.

Judging by their speed and precision, these were no ordinary men. They were highly trained.

"What's happening?"

A man and a woman sat across from each other in a secluded room. They heard the piercing sound of the alarms loud and clear.

"Relax. Whatever it is, it'll be handled quickly," the man said dismissively, reaching for his radio to get an update.

Before he could speak, the door to the room was blown off its hinges, slamming into the far wall with a loud crash.

"Who's Jonathan Larsen?" Felix demanded coldly as he stepped into the room. His presence radiated danger, and it was clear he was not there to negotiate.

If Felix had made it this far, it could only mean everyone else had already been eliminated. What he had seen on the way down was enough to make his blood boil.

The underground lab was nothing less than a house of horrors, where children were Treated like disposable lab rats.

In one of the labs, Felix had stumbled upon the body of a child who had died horribly,

bleeding from every corner of his face. It was the kind of sight that would haunt anyone, even someone as hardened as Felix. "Felix!"

A startled voice snapped him out of his fury. He turned to the woman standing nearby and froze, his brow furrowing deeply. "Aimee?" he asked, disbelief written across his face.

He could not believe it. Of all people, why was Aimee here, in a place like this?

The man, clearly trying to regain some semblance of control, barked, "I don't know who you think you are, but you've just made a colossal mistake!

"Do you even know what you're dealing with? Jonathan Larsen is an elder of Polaris. No matter how strong you are, do you really think you can afford to go against Polaris?"

Felix did not waste words. A single silver needle flew from his hand, and the man immediately dropped to the floor, writhing in agony.

The torment was enough to make even an experienced martial artist scream in anguish. Felix had no intention of killing him just yet. He had questions to ask, and this man would give him answers.

Aimee pressed herself against the wall, and terror etched across her face as she watched the man's tortured cries echo through the room. When Felix turned toward her and started walking closer, she flinched, finally snapping out of her frozen state. "Felix, what are you doing? Killing people is against the law-don't you know that?" she stammered, her voice trembling.

Felix stopped, his eyes narrowing as he scrutinized her. After a moment, he was sure-this was not an imposter or a disguised enemy. This was indeed Xena's cousin, which only deepened his confusion.

He asked, "Why are you here? What's your connection to these people?"

Aimee hesitated, swallowing nervously as she felt the weight of Felix's murderous intent. Finally, she spoke, her voice shaky. "I-It was Xena. She sent me here."
