Chapter 1275 - 1274: 3 Days

Just as Lu Yu was forcing Oster to sign the contract, in a high-class room in Central District, London, UK, Max Gis, Chris, and thirty others were seated inside.

In front of them was a small laptop, and on the top of the laptop screen was a human face.

This face had bronze skin, meticulously groomed silver hair, and at a glance, it gave off an imposing feeling.

Evidently, the man displayed on the laptop was the Controller of the Shadow Luo Organization!

And now, Max and the others were clearly engaged in a video call meeting with the Controller.

At this moment, Max Gis, Chris, and the other sat upright before their laptops, their demeanor extremely serious.

Even Jis, who was usually the most flamboyant, had restrained himself, now appearing extremely respectful and humble, without a trace of his usual arrogant behavior.

"Max..."

At this moment, the Controller's voice conveyed faintly from the computer, sounding chillingly cold: "How have you progressed with the mission I assigned you?!"

As he spoke, the Controller's voice carried a hint of ruthless aggression, tightening the hearts of those listening, causing an indescribable discomfort.

Buzz!

With his words, the three people present stiffened, showcasing evident fear.

Even through a video conference, the Controller's authority was still able to instill panic and dread in Max and the others.

"Max"

Seeing Max and the other two silent in the video, the Controller's voice quickly revealed a sense of sternness: "I'm asking you a question, are you three deaf?!"

As he spoke, the Controller's voice suddenly escalated, filled with aggression, accompanied by a faint roaring lion's sound, shaking the listeners immensely.

"Sir, please calm down!"

Hearing the Controller's anger, Max and the others quickly spoke up: "Regarding the mission, we haven't had the opportunity to complete it yet..."

As he spoke, Max's voice was incredibly deep, probably owing to the cybernetic enhancements, making him appear extraordinarily composed now.

Yet despite this, his clenched fist betrayed his inner feelings.

Even though Max had undergone mechanical enhancements, he still felt intense fear at this moment.

"Not completed yet?!"

Upon hearing this, the Controller's voice suddenly escalated, his gaze became extremely stern as he spoke: "Max, how much time has passed? Your mission hasn't shown any progress at this point, do you wish to die?!"

As he spoke again, the Controller's voice sharply elevated, a chilling murderous intent burst forth, evoking fear and trembling!

"Sir, we wish to complete the mission quickly, too"

Listening to the Controller's words, Jis couldn't hold back anymore, speaking to the video before him: "But Lu Yu's strength is truly formidable, the three of us indeed need more time to deal with him!"

As he spoke, Jis's voice was full of humility and meekness, appearing extremely aggrieved.

"Lu Yu's strength is formidable?"

Upon hearing Jis's words, the Controller spoke calmly: "Is this the reason you are so reluctant to act?"

As he spoke again, the Controller's voice carried a tone of questioning.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing the Controller's words, Jis responded in a highly subdued manner, his voice very low and sounding deeply aggrieved.

"Listen well to me"

At this point, the Controller spoke coldly, his voice emanating from the computer in a chilling tone: "I've tasked you with handling this matter, so I won't concern myself with your methods or process. I only care about the result, and I don't want to hear anything else!"

"Because I'm not interested in listening!"

Within his words, the Controller's voice carried a tinge of contempt: "What I care about most now is how you accomplish the mission!"

As he spoke, the Controller's voice showed a hint of sternness, and at this moment he raised three fingers, speaking: "Three days!"

While speaking, the Controller's voice was strict: "I'm giving you just three days time. If you haven't completed the mission in three days, I'll send someone to retrieve you back to headquarters and transfer your powers to others!"

"Because those powers are utterly wasted on you!"

As he spoke, the Controller's voice carried an undeniable sternness, sending chills down the spine, freezing the heart.

Listening to the Controller's words now, everyone present was struck silent like cicadas in winter; none dared to breathe too loudly, their faces filled with shock and terror.

"Did you hear what I said?"

After finishing his sentence, the Controller's voice echoed from the computer: "Did you all understand what I said?"

"Understood"

Upon hearing the Controller's words, Max and the others responded, their eyes full of respect and fear, appearing extremely apprehensive.

Now, none of them doubted the authenticity of the Controller's words because they knew the Controller always meant what he said.

Since he gave them three days time in this speech, then he indeed only gave them three days.

Moreover, if they failed to complete the assignment, they would immediately be stripped of their superpowers and become Ludwig's experimental subjects, dying a gruesomely tragic death!

It should be known, Ludwig is a complete lunatic; if one falls into his hands, the outcome would definitely be shockingly brutal!

At that point, truly unable to live and unable to die!

"Now that you know and have understood"

Hearing Max and the other two's replies, the Controller spoke coldly: "Then start executing!"

"Remember, you only have three days, failure to complete the mission within three days results in the stripping of your superpowers, becoming the next batch of experimental subjects!"

While speaking, the Controller's voice was deep, carrying a chilling aura of aggression.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing the Controller's commands, everyone present responded, though inwardly reluctant, they had to comply!

Because, those who defy the Controller's orders, their fates are definitely even more tragic!
