Chapter 1420

Bernard who had breached the biozone with lightning speed, Bernard, had intended to grab Yates for a

little heart-to-heart.

Yet, what he hadn’t expected was that the puppet master behind the seventh round of their twisted

game was holed up right here.

Bernard’s eyes, cold as a winter’s frost, zeroed in on his target’s head in the blink of an eye.

The moment his skull was cracked open, Bernard knew the seventh round had been tampered with on

purpose. Caleb… Caleb could have made it out alive. But to test him, they let Caleb die in the snake

nest!

This vendetta, this ocean of blood owed, Bernard was determined to settle it with his own hands.

His white-gloved hand slid the gun back into his belt and slowly drew out a gleaming golden knife.

Bernard holding the knife, his gaze lifting, charged toward the controller of District B1-9 with blinding

speed.

The hapless puppet master, still caught in the fray, couldn’t even make out who was barreling toward

him before his throat was slashed open.

Clutching at his throat, spewing blood, he stared with eyes full of unwillingness at Bernard, who had

already sheathed his knife… In his dying moment, he finally understood why Bernard had targeted only

him – Because he had killed Caleb.

Even if Kermit Hyde had given the order, an accomplice was still fair game for death.

After he fell, Bernard, with deliberate calm, crouched down.

Robin, who’d come to the biozone as well, thought Bernard was squatting to deliver another stab.

But the man, with his devastatingly good looks, was merely using the corpse’s clothing to wipe the

blood from his blade…

Robin rolled his eyes involuntarily, then lifted his own gun to take out someone aiming at Bernard.

“Hey, I just saved your bacon. How do you plan to thank me?”

Bernard, still leisurely cleaning his blade, responded without looking up, his voice light.

“My dear cousin, if you don’t mind, after we rescue your cousin-in-law, my wife and I can take you out

for a meal.”

Robin, who had just gotten over his shock, felt his heart seize up again, wishing he could shoot

Bernard himself!

“I never should’ve saved you!” Grinding his teeth, Robin holstered his weapon.

He stormed off, intent on retreating, but halfway through, he stopped.

He couldn’t just leave Eleanor behind!

With that thought, Robin, swallowing his towering rage, shamelessly headed back into the fray.

Evan and Gianna, who had finished off the last controller, also made their way swiftly to the biozone to

join Bernard.

“Mr. Law, 49 of them, not a single one missing.”

Bernard, having wiped away all traces of blood, straightened up and sheathed his golden knife.

“What about the others?”

“Locked up.”

Bernard secured his knife and lifted his icy, solemn gaze toward the last remaining loudspeaker in the

biozone.

“Yates, release Eleanor, and I’ll let your people go.”

Yates, who had almost reached the safe room, slowed his pace upon hearing the broadcast.

Through the thick glass window, he looked at Eleanor, who sat on the bed hugging her knees.

His expression grew complex as his eyes met the face that was nearly identical to Pauline’s.

But the complexity lasted only a moment before he bottled up his emotions, turned on his heel, and

walked to the control panel outside the safe room.

He pressed the button for the intercom and responded to Bernard.

“Not enough.”

Yates, who no longer valued the lives of the other controllers, was eager to know the founder of the

Siren Organization.

What Yates didn’t realize was that his reply played right into Bernard’s hands. With his typical

nonchalance, Bernard coolly spoke

“What if I throw in the founder of the Siren Organization? Is that enough for you?”
