CHAPTER 434: CHAPTER 434: FROM THIS DAY, BROTHER AND SISTER TIES ARE SEVERED

As she turned to leave, unable to stop worrying about her brother’s safety, she couldn’t help but glance back, catching Vincent Vance’s extremely disappointed gaze inside the room.

Earlier, when Maxwell Vance tricked May Morgan into coming with a phone call, Vincent heard it all clearly. And since she was only focused on her own escape, Vincent was utterly chilled towards Maxwell’s actions.

"Brother, I’m sorry, I can’t save you!"

After helplessly dropping these seemingly guilty words, Maxwell wiped away the tear marks from her face and ran towards the car.

Soon, she drove Logan Vance’s car and quickly disappeared from Vincent’s sight.

Seeing Maxwell leave, Logan sneered at Vincent: "How does it feel to be betrayed by your closest sister?"

Vincent glared coldly at Logan, saying harshly, "She’s not my sister."

He could understand her leaving him behind to save herself, but tricking the innocent May Morgan into coming to her death was unforgivable. Vincent clenched his fists, secretly vowing that if anything happened to May Morgan, he wouldn’t let Maxwell get away with it!

Not far away, the sound of police cars suddenly came, and upon hearing it, Vincent’s eyes sank: "Logan, I advise you to get out of here quickly, or be prepared to go to jail and die."

Those police cars were sent by Director Lawson, armed and equipped with shields, because Vincent had warned them about potential dangers here. They even brought powerful insecticides and flamethrowing devices.

Logan’s vines were dangerous, but they were rooted and couldn’t attack beyond the villa’s scope, so Vincent’s odds were still favorable.

Yet Logan was unfazed, turning to glance at the approaching police cars with disdain written all over his face: "Vincent, you think this can handle me? Today I’ll show you my strength!"

After speaking, he didn’t leave but instead walked into the villa. The vines parted as if recognizing their master, opening a path for Logan until he stood with Vincent in the living room.

The vines in the air continued to entangle and threaten, ready to attack Vincent at any moment. Despite Logan being within reach, Vincent didn’t dare act rashly, knowing that any slight movement would prompt Logan to command the vines to attack him.

"Today I’ll show you what divine power means!"

Logan looked at Vincent with pride, suddenly waving his arm, murmuring a few spells, and immediately, the outer vines shrieked sharply, rushing straight toward a police car charging at the forefront.

Seeing an arm-thick vine suddenly rushing toward them, the police car slammed the brakes in fright, coming to a halt. The vine swung in the air, decisively pierced the windshield, and wrapped around the driver.

"Help!"

The policeman, unprepared for the vine’s massive force, was quickly trapped mid-air and then flung onto another car’s roof.

Luckily, the policeman wore protective gear, so being slammed onto the car roof didn’t cause significant harm, only minor bruises.

But the car smashed into suffered greatly, with a deep dent instantly formed in it, and the driver inside hurriedly gripped the steering wheel, parking the car beside a flowerbed in fright.

At that moment, numerous vines, resembling terrifying pythons, rapidly attacked the police. The vines’ immense strength quickly wrapped the car, flinging it aside; within moments, many police cars were incapacitated, mostly losing their combat capability.

This is too horrifying. What are these things?

Director Lawson had never seen anything like this. He immediately instructed to use weapons and start a fire attack on the terrifying vines.

The flames quickly spread onto the seemingly living vines, but achieved minimal effect. The vines, instead of dying upon catching fire, swung even more violently in the air, possibly feeling pain and letting out piercing screams, chilling those who heard it.

Moreover, the vines, though burning, didn’t shrink or turn to ashes; instead, after a brief painful roar, they attacked everyone even more crazily.

Seeing the fire attack fail, some policemen began pulling out guns, shooting rapidly at the vines. But when the bullets hit, the vines merely oozed dark brown liquid without diminishing their attack power.

What’s even more terrifying is that if the dark brown liquid from the vines accidentally touched a person’s skin, it would quickly corrode the dermis, causing excruciating pain.

Only through a few rounds, all the weapons Director Lawson brought were almost useless; insecticides were used, no results; fire was used, still ineffective. These vines seemed like unkillable biological weapons, a chilling scene to behold.

Looking at the villa terrifyingly resembling a sci-fi battlefield, Director Lawson felt helpless. He had never encountered such eerie things and began to worry that if not promptly eradicated, they would cause irreversible harm to the people.

"Get someone to call in the demolition experts; these things are too terrifying. We need to find a way to thoroughly clean them up, or they will endanger others’ lives."

Considering social stability and these things’ hazards, Director Lawson reluctantly instructed subordinates to call in bomb specialists to install explosives in the villa.

However, every movement outside couldn’t escape Logan’s notice. Hearing Director Lawson say he’d blow up the villa, Logan deliberately reminded Vincent: "Director Lawson probably doesn’t know you’re inside, right? I heard he’s calling to blow up the villa. You don’t want to die too badly, do you?"

Vincent understood his meaning, smiling coldly: "What’s the matter? With you accompanying me, I don’t lose out."

"One life for one life, you don’t lose, but two lives for one life, do you lose?"

Logan glanced outside the villa, a crafty light flashing in his eyes: "I knew you’d call for help, so I tricked your beloved woman over too. To die, we all die together; with you and May Morgan accompanying, I don’t lose either."

"Bastard, don’t touch May Morgan, or I’ll handle you!" Vincent was enraged, clenching his fists wanting to punch Logan for sneakily using May Morgan’s life to threaten him.

But as his fist swung forward, it was quickly ensnared by the vines under Logan’s control, throwing him onto the ground.

And the Fragrant Bone Wood he held in his hand was flung far away by the vines.
