Chapter 801

Kyro and Luna looked puzzled. To them, nothing had happened except Felix staring at Micah. Could that count as a contest?

Then, they noticed something was wrong. Sweat poured off Micah like rain and dripped audibly against the floor. What had happened to him? Finally, Felix withdrew his power.

Micah dropped to one knee and gasped for air, his eyes filled with raw fear. After recovering, Micah bowed to Felix. "This is my first taste of a Dragonian martial artist's true power. Please forgive my earlier disrespect, Dr. Zeller." Felix said with a smile, "No offense taken. You're quite skilled yourself."

Even before absorbing another Dragonspine, Felix could have crushed Micah without breaking a sweat. Micah would not even have a chance to fight at all.

Micah turned to Kyro. "Mr. Starfire, Dr. Zeller's strength surpasses any warrior or shadowstalker I've encountered. Even if we surrounded him, I doubt we'd force him to use more than one hand."

Such high praise made Kyro and Luna draw sharp breaths. This level of shock was rare for them. Combined with Felix's miraculous healing abilities, even "genius" seemed too weak a word.

"Excellent! This is fate. The Steeles' evil deeds have earned their punishment." Kyro laughed wildly, then turned to Felix. "Tell me your plan, Dr. Zeller. I'll support you with everything I have."

With such power, destroying the Steeles seemed quite possible. Felix did not care why Kyro hated them. Their goals were the same anyway, and that was enough. "Mr. Starfire Senior, is there any way to gather the Steele family in one place?" All together?

Kyro frowned. Micah and Luna pondered, too. After all, such large families rarely gathered fully. Though they knew Felix's power, the idea of taking them all at once was startling. Finally, Luna spoke, "Dr. Zeller, your idea is sound, but the Steele family is vast. They have over a hundred direct members, excluding the elderly, women, and children.

"Their last full gathering was three years ago, and it was for their eldest's birthday. Even then, not everyone came."

Felix frowned. They really had different cultures, and Felix had been too naive to expect that. In Dragonia, such large families would gather immediately at the head of the family's command, no questions asked.

"Luna's right. Taking them all at once would be efficient, but there's no plausible excuse for

them to gather."

As Kyro finished, Micah had a thought. "No, you've forgotten something, Mr. Starfire Senior and Ms. Starfire. There's one person who can gather all direct Steele family members, and it's guaranteed. They'd drop everything and come running." Before Kyro could respond, Luna exclaimed, "You mean... Reagan Thorne?"

Reagan Thorne?

Felix recalled Nala's words about how the Steeles rose to power through their connection to the Shadowstalker Emperor, Reagan. But he still did not fully grasp Reagan's standing in Astoria. with of
