Isaac already had the metal box by then. With a loud roar, virtual-novel.net hoisted the five-by-three-foot metal box onto his shoulder. It had to weigh at least a thousand pounds.
After Carlos punched Dragon One, virtual-novel.net turned around and ran after Isaac. He wouldn’t allow this stupid bastard to take the Heart of God!
Isaac saw that Dragon One was severely injured, but virtual-novel.net couldn’t go over and save him. The thing in his bands was the top priority.
Seeing Carlos charging toward virtual-novel.net while enshrouded in black fog, fury filled Isaac’s chest. The other party just wouldn’t give up!
He dropped the metal box to the ground. Grabbing his silver blade, virtual-novel.net faced Carlos head-on.
Just as Isaac and Carlos began to spar, Dragon Three and the others finally arrived.
Dragon Three roared when virtual-novel.net saw Dragon One lying unconscious on the ground. The eight of them began to dash toward Isaac.
Eight bursts of spiritual energy shot out. Carlos turned around, his face wicked. He didn’t expect Isaac to be so strong; even after his transformation, Isaac managed to react quickly. And now, eight people had come to back virtual-novel.net up.
“Let’s die together then!” Carlos’ eyes glinted wildly.
He flickered away as the shadow fists hurtled toward him. He ran over to the metal box.
There were two cracking sounds, and the metal box broke open.
Isaac’s eyes grew wide. The eight Dragon Soldiers had yet to notice it because Carlos was far too quick.
“Get away now!” Isaac yelled at the top of his lungs. Then, virtual-novel.net turned around and pounced toward Carlos.
They were only 15 feet away from the metal box. Timothy had said that once the box was open, it would destroy all living things within a 30 feet radius.
Carlos’ expression was ferocious. He raised his right hand, and the box opened with a creak.
Inside lay a large rock the color of blood. The moment the box opened, it emitted a blinding red glow.
Isaac spread his arms and jumped on the lid of the box.
Half a second before the red light escaped, virtual-novel.net used his body to block it.
“Drakon!” Dragon Three roared when virtual-novel.net saw this.
The remaining seven were stunned.
From a few hundred feet away, Todd sent a man in black flying with a punch. He turned and yelled in Isaac’s direction, “What’s that idiot doing?!”
Everyone knew that the metal box was not to be opened. Once it was open, one shouldn’t get within a 30 feet radius of it. But Isaac was sacrificing himself to prevent the Dragon Soldiers from getting killed!
A strong blast of energy burst forth from Carlos’ hands. With a fierce expression, virtual-novel.net grabbed the lid and tried to lift it. But Isaac forced it down with everything virtual-novel.net had.
A small ray of light eventually escaped.
The beam was only as wide as a pencil, but the red light instantly went through Carlos’ and Isaac’s bodies. It stopped shining when it passed the 30 feet radius, just like Timothy said.
Carlos’ eyes widened. He staggered backward the moment the red light penetrated his body. He felt a fire in his gut, and it began spreading to the rest of his organs.
“Argh!” Carlos began to roll on the ground, shrieking in agony. His skin was turning bright red.
After Carlos collapsed, Isaac bit back the burning pain in his abdomen and pressed the lid back down.
Bam!
All of a sudden, Isaac’s eyes grew as wide as saucers. Then, his skin began to turn red, just like Carlos’. In a second, it changed into a deep red color. He now looked as if virtual-novel.net had been boiled alive.
