Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 1868

Henry looked at Andrew's unfocused eyes and smiled. He said, "Phantom Mirage really is incredible! No wonder Jerome treated it like a top-tier technique and kept it locked away."

Eric responded flatly, "As long as he's alive, you won't be able to take full control of Goldridge's headquarters."

Henry shook his head. "Now that he's escaped, there's no point talking about it, but the injuries he sustained are fatal. Combined with the Frostblossom poison, he'd be crippled even if he survives. A crippled leader means nothing to me!"

Eric warned, "You know what kind of martial arts prodigy Dad is. I advise you not to get too overconfident. Besides, there's another secret technique in his residence. Mr. Fischer, haven't you always coveted that Inferno Strike technique? Did you find it?"

Henry's brow furrowed tightly. "I didn't find it. We turned that entire side hall upside down and found nothing at all. Right now, my people are searching for the rest of the headquarters, hoping to locate it somewhere else."

Eric shook his head directly. "If it's not in the side hall, then there's no point searching anywhere else. Dad is a straightforward man, and he wouldn't hide a martial art like Inferno Strike in some hidden vault. He either destroyed it… or took it with him."

Henry gritted his teeth slightly. "If that's really the case, then the Inferno Strike just isn't meant for me!"

Eric withdrew his hands and glanced at Andrew with contempt. "He's now completely trapped in the stupor I've created! Right now, if you tell him to die, he'll die. Whatever you want him to do, he'll do it!"

Henry was extremely pleased and laughed heartily. "A pawn this useful? I'm not about to waste him. I need a capable right-hand man in Goldridge, and Andrew will help me wipe out what's left of the resistance."

Eric explained, "To completely control his mind, I'll need to do this several more times. Activating Phantom Mirage takes a great toll on my energy reserves. If you want total control over him and turn him into a puppet, I'll need at least another two weeks."

Henry pondered for a moment. "Two weeks is too long… I'll give you ten days at most!"
