Chapter 310 A Mutant
“It’s likely because Alastair has reached the peak of his Manifestor abilities, so they thought they were guaranteed to win. Who would have known that such a chaotic situation would arise? It’s just unfortunate for the Ginger family.”
“The Ginger family is indeed facing a stroke of bad luck. That troublemaker committed a serious offense. Does he really believe that his family, the Ginger family, can escape responsibility?”
These whispers quickly reached the ears of Callum, Elliott, and others, causing their expressions to change dramatically.
They were well aware that although the issues with the Houghton family had been resolved, their family had now attracted the attention of an even more terrifying entity, the Martial Arts Alliance.
Meanwhile, a roundtable meeting was taking place in the conference room at the Drieso Martial Arts Alliance.
Monaldo Scarpelli, the chief of the Drieso Martial Arts Alliance, said, “Ms. Lockwood, we have a general understanding of the situation with the wanted criminal. He is a mutant, classified as a class S danger. After escaping from Central Chanaea to Drieso, he has sequentially harmed three people. The bodies of the three victims were torn into bloody pieces, with only their heads remaining intact.”
Seated across from him was a woman without makeup.
Even without makeup, it did not diminish her stunning beauty in the slightest.
Even while sitting, one could easily see from the side that her figure was perfectly proportioned. From her ample chest to her slender waist, down to her two beautiful legs neatly tucked under the table, every part of her was perfectly balanced.
This woman was none other than Larissa.
She wore a solemn expression, her delicate eyebrows furrowed in concern. Rubbing her brows, she said, “The wanted criminal this time is extremely ruthless. My failure to capture him while he was in Central Chanaca was a mistake on my part.”
Monaldo said, “We will do everything in our power to assist you in capturing the culprit, Ms. Lockwood. According to reports from the law enforcement, we have narrowed down the area where the culprit may be active. His arrest is imminent.”
With a long sigh, Larissa said, “Let’s hope so, and pray that there won’t be any more victims.”
The meeting was halfway through when a man in his fifties suddenly stood up and said, “I apologize, Mr. Scarpelli and Ms. Lockwood. I need to step out to take a call.”
Monaldo nodded.

The man quickly left the conference room, stepping out into the corridor. He answered the phone, saying, “I’m in a meeting right now. Why are you calling at this time? What’s going on?”
His tone was extremely serious.
Afrantic voice came through the phone. “Mr. Petrakis, there have been some complications in the martial arts tournament between the Houghton and Ginger families.”Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
The person on the other end of the call was none other than Soren.
The man who answered the phone was Theseus, the guardian of the Drieso Martial Arts Alliance.
Theseus’ voice carried a hint of annoyance as he rebuked, “What situation could be more serious than this mutant incident? Can’t you use your own brain to solve it?”
Soren gave a bitter smile and responded, “The situation this time is really beyond my ability to resolve… Your mentee. Travis, is dead. I also came close to losing my life.”
“What?” Theseus’ voice suddenly grew louder. He glanced back at the conference room, quickly stepping away to create some distance. His face darkened as he questioned, “What’s going on? Could it be Alastair’s doing? How dare the Ginger family provoke the Martial Arts Alliance?”
“No. The culprit is someone else…”
Soren swiftly recounted the sequence of events. Upon hearing it, Theseus trembled with anger. and exclaimed, “Stay where you are. I will gather people immediately. I want to see what this young person is capable of, daring to oppose the Martial Arts Alliance!”
After ending the call, Theseus hesitated for a moment and decided not to disturb Monaldo for the time being. Instead, he led a group of law enforcers and hurriedly made his way to the Ginger residence.
Travis was Theseus’ protégé.
Although Travis did not hold a position in the Martial Arts Alliance, Theseus still held him in hight regard. When he first took Travis under his wing, it was because he recognized Travis’ natural talent for martial arts. And indeed, Travis did not disappoint. Before reaching the age of forty, he had already achieved the advanced stage of Manifestor.
One could sav.
Travis was Theseus’ most accomplished protégé.
During the martial arts tournament between the Houghton and Ginger families, Theseus had chosen not to personally attend the event to avoid arousing suspicion. Instead, he had sent Soren as his representative. Little did he know that such a significant incident would unfold.
