Chapter 5: Tidal Attack

'Fine, I will let you have my body because thanks to you I got 300 billion.'

But could money buy this chastity that she'd been guarded? Was she that kind of woman? Irina's heart ached terribly at the thought of this.

More and more tears were pouring down that Irina closed her eyes, resigned to what would happen next.

When Ryan was about to strip his wife's robe, he felt tears falling on her face and saw Irina's face filled with tears.

BANG!

As if his mind had been bombed, Ryan's common sense finally had returned. Seeing Irina's pale face and full of tears made Ryan feel guilty.

'Why ... Why am I doing something this low? Why do I see this sad face, I'm also sad?'

'I just met this woman and I've become some kind of beast forcing her to do things she doesn't want. Shame!'

Irina, fully succumbed to the force, felt that the tight grip holding her finally loosened up. She then started to open her eyes. All she saw was Ryan's figure missing from behind the door.

Feeling confused and tired, she started wiping her tears and looked around. She tried to remember what had happened.

However, the more she tried to recall, the more she remembered traumatic incidents she had endured. As a result, tears couldn't stop coming out of her eyes.

After calming down a little, she realized that there was a trace of blood in her hand. She was confused if she had been injured from resisting earlier. It seemed that this wasn't her blood so it must have been Ryan's.

When she regained her consciousness, Irina's view was still blurry and at that time she didn't see Ryan's face.

She tried to recollect her memories of what had happened with Ryan. However, no matter how hard she thought, she found nothing. Feeling dizzy, she laid down and found a syringe beside her bed. Shocked, she immediately checked her arm and found that there was a syringe mark.

"What does this mean? Is this his doing?" Irina couldn't understand. Was all her helplessness because of Ryan? Or was there anything else?

"Ryan, I really hate you."

Ryan immediately went into his room and locked the door without saying anything. What he needed now was a calm atmosphere.

The energy inside him was churning. If he didn't calm it right away, things would get ugly.

Without his inner strength, the mysterious power within his body would explode and take over him. Usually with the help of potion X and his inner power he could suppress it. But to save Irina beforehand, Ryan used the remaining X potion a little and some of his internal power to smooth the healing process. If his current body condition continued like this, he might not last long.

He didn't know why he had this mysterious power in his body. All he knew was that when this mysterious power completely took over his body, he would most likely die. So when he was fighting, he would not be fighting as hard because he had to spare his strength to control this mysterious power.

He had used his resources and time to develop potion X. However, potion X was only a short term solution. He still hadn't found a real solution.

For two hours, he felt that his strength had recovered a little and he began to calm down again. At least now he wouldn't vomit blood and could rest in peace.

"Calm down, this is nothing. This happened because I was off guard and I was low on potion X. I think I have to ask Yasmin to send it faster. " After calming himself down, he immediately opened the computer and contacted Yasmin.

Ryan originally didn't want to rely on this X concoction. When he returned to Crimea, he only brought 3 bottles and he was thrifty in drinking them. At a time when that mysterious power flared up, he would hold back before finally drinking the potion. After saving Irina's life, his supplies were completely depleted.

Tring

Ryan's video chat had been received by Yasmin but Ryan's computer screen remained black without Yasmin's figure. Did Yasmin leave her computer on?

After 1-2 hours of waiting, Yasmin finally appeared. However, Yasmin's appearance was very disheveled and looked covered in wounds.

"Yasmin!! What's wrong? Are you okay?"

Hearing the familiar voice made Yasmin shed tears. Her face that initially looked serious immediately turned into a mess, "Sir, I'm sorry. Our base has been destroyed and… "

"WHAT?" Before Yasmin could explain, Ryan's jolt completely numbed Yasmin's ears and she lowered her head in tears.

Headquarters destroyed? How could Ryan's secret base, which was heavily guarded, be destroyed? Not to sound arrogant, but his secret base could not even be penetrated by the elite forces of any country. Did this mean the armies of several nations were united against him?

"How about potion X? Is potion X safe?"

Apart from the safety of his subordinates, the X potion was the most important thing he was worried about. This potion cultivation site was even tighter.

"Sorry sir, their target is potion X. Most of the base is untouched. They only targeted where potion X was. Both the medicinal field, the researchers and all the information regarding potion X have been destroyed without any remains." Yasmin said all these things with a trembling body and heavy sobs. She knew that this potion meant a lot to her master. Especially after glancing at Ryan's raging face, Yasmin was really ready to die.

No living being could face the anger of Nergal.

"Who?" Ryan unconsciously slapped the table hard, "Which bastard dares to do all this?"

Ryan tried to stifle his overflowing anger and his recovering energy emitted a powerful killing aura.

"He... The Eclipse." Yasmin seemed hesitant to say the name.

"The Eclipse? Yasmin do you think I'm a runny kid or maybe you don't know who did it? How could he possibly do all these things considering his only power? Even if he was a traitor, what could that loser do? I have entrusted the headquarters to you and The Tiger. The Tiger's martial power was equivalent to even greater than that of The Eclipse. How could he possibly do all this?" Ryan demanded an explanation.

After Ryan finished speaking, Yasmin was silent and her body trembled. Cold sweat dripped from her forehead. Seeing Yasmin who was nervous and looked scared, Ryan had his own guess. He couldn't help but sigh heavily.

"Could it be that the tiger is also involved? That boy has always submitted to me, who would have thought that someone could make himself so brave and betray me?" Ryan asked.

Yasmin who heard Ryan's threat immediately knelt down and bowed deeply, "I'm sorry sir. I got to trouble the master and moreover I couldn't stop The Tiger. I will solve my husband's problem in my own way. When all of this is over, I will return every dollar!" Yasmin answered.

Honestly, Yasmin could see no way out for herself but to die. Her husband betrayed her, X's potion was destroyed without remaining and moreover all this happened under her responsibility. Given Ryan's temper, there was only death.

Seeing Yasmin who was very sorry, Ryan could not bear to blame it all on Yasmin. He himself knew that Yasmin was the most trusted person on earth.

Restraining himself from getting angry, Ryan tried to smile at Yasmin, "Yasmin, get up. The important thing is you are safe and it's okay. Everything has happened and we must look to the future. I ask you to help rebuild the base in a new place and hurry up to make potion X in one month. As for The Eclipse and The Tiger, leave them to me. Focus on rebuilding our base."

After Yasmin thanked him, Ryan immediately turned off his computer and opened his bedroom's window. While breathing in the cold night air, he saw a shadow moving in the middle of the night.

"Hmmm .. so fast. It seemed the enemy was acting quickly and efficiently this time. These attacks have been prepared a long time ago. "

It was dark. The lights of every house have started to light up. The people were getting sleepy and resting in their own rooms. Irina was not spared from this. Today he felt even more tired than usual. It could be said that these few days were very tiring days in his life.

But from behind all this silent darkness, a human figure could be seen standing still on a roof. He was not a underwear thief who couldn't get off, he was none other than Ryan. Ryan looked like a lonely wolf who watched over his territory. After a while, he dashed off and away from Irina's residence.

Behind him, from behind the shadows too, several figures began to slowly and silently approach him. But after a while, Ryan suddenly stopped and said, "Come out, I know you've been following me." Ryan moved at lightning speed, moving 1 km in just a minute. He had lured them into a quiet place.

After a while, several figures in black came out from the shadows.

Seeing their appearance, Ryan said, "You ... Are you the Italian Mafia?"

The people in black looked at each other. They didn't think that their identities would be exposed in just one glance.

With a nod of their head from their leader, the assassins in black clothes immediately took out their weapons and charged at Ryan.
