CHAPTER 1012 COUNTERPLOT

"What? But how can the Blue Water Mutant control the owner of the mutant instead of the other way

around, which is the usual way?" Ricky asked Tina telepathically, and his tone was filled with disbelief

after he heard what she said.

"Does the Blue Water Mutant have psychic intelligence?" he asked again before she could answer his

earlier questions.

"No, it doesn't, and that explains how terrifying the Blue Water Mutant is. It can control its owner behind

the scenes, which sets apart the Blue Water Mutant among other mutants. It is like a cultivation method

in that it can be divided into nine levels," Tina explained, to Ricky's surprise.

"But that's impossible! How can a mutant be similar to a cultivation method? A mutant can only evolve

from a lower grade to a higher grade," Ricky said, and he shook his head in disbelief, as he found

Tina's explanation too bizarre to be believable.

"It is true, Ricky. This kind of mutant can be found in the records of our clan," she insisted. "And that is

what makes this mutant vicious.

Each cultivation level of this mutant requires the blood power of nine water mutants, and when the

mutant devours this required blood power, it has to devour the owners of these water mutants who are

still alive.

The owner of the Blue Water Mutant can cultivate into a higher realm only if the Blue Water Mutant

devours the blood power of other water mutants. Oswald, who has reached the level of a lower demi-

spiritual emperor, has likely enhanced the Blue Water Mutant to the second level, which means that he

has devoured no less than eighteen owners of water mutants."

"Eighteen! What an evil creature! To think that he had even devoured them when they were alive!"

Ricky exclaimed angrily, as he was unable to keep his killing intent from rising.

If the eighteen water mutant owners were Oswald's enemies, he would not have been this angry. After

all, this was a martial world where battles of life and death took place every day between mortal

enemies, so one was free to devour who he wanted to devour in such a situation.

But even without thinking, Ricky was sure that none of the eighteen people had held any grudge

against Oswald, and it was more likely that they had been in a similar situation as Amelia and the Chu

Clan.

"What's more, the Blue Water Mutant has to devour the blood power of water mutants that are at a

higher level than those it had devoured for its previous level of cultivation," Tina continued. "And when

the Blue Water Mutant reaches the ninth level and achieves completeness, it will become one of the

strongest mutants, only second to the Chaos Mutant.

There are many kinds of powerful and vicious mutants that are below the Chaos Mutant, and they are

almost the same as the Blue Water Mutant in nature because they also have to devour mutants with a

certain element."

"So, this is the reason why Oswald hides his mutant. He is so confident that he will kill us today, and

that is why he showed his Blue Water Mutant to us," Ricky muttered, angered by Oswald's arrogance,

although, at the same time, he was pleased because this arrogance would help him defeat Oswald as

well.

"What a pity..."

both Ricky and Tina mumbled, shaking their heads in dismay. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

"I didn't expect that you would know about my Blue Water Mutant, which is a pity for you, because it

erases any hope that you can leave here alive today," Oswald threatened and sneered when he heard

that Amelia and Gerry recognized his mutant.

"It is no wonder that you have been hiding your mutant. It is such a vicious and cruel kind of mutant,"

Gerry told him, disgust evident in his face. "Even if you manage to kill us today, there will be someone

else who will kill you in the future."

"Ha-ha! Fools! When my Blue Water Mutant becomes the strongest mutant, there will be no one left in

the world to stop me.

Kill them all!" Oswald commanded in an icy tone, and his expression was as sharp as the finest blade.

He knew that he had revealed too much information about himself, so it was better to send Ricky and

his companions to hell, where they would not be able to cause him any more trouble.

"Yes, young master!" In the next breath, the five people behind Oswald launched attacks separately

towards Ricky, Soar, Amanda, Gerry, and another strong disciple of the Ju Clan.

They went into the offensive with utmost confidence, as they thought that a single attack could wipe

them all out.

However, just as the five people of the Shen Clan were about to touch them, Ricky and his companions

activated their most powerful attacks to fight back.

They moved as fast as a bolt of lightning. Puff!

As their momentum surged, the five members of the Shen Clan were struck and blown away by their

attacks, and two of them died straightway, while the other three were gravely injured.

The situation was reversed in an instant.

In the next moment, Ricky and his companions all stood upright in their peak state as if nothing had

happened.

Bang! Suddenly, the air was filled with pressure so heavy that it felt like a mountain had been dropped

on their heads, and this was because of Oswald's momentum—the momentum of his Blue Water

Mutant.

Crimson mixed with the deep blue color of his eyes that made him look sinister and deadly, and they

wondered if these were his original eyes. Could he be hiding his bloody blue eyes behind his clear blue

eyes?

"How is this possible? You should be weak and exhausted!" Oswald muttered in disbelief, looking at

them with wide and confused eyes.

"You should blame your short-sighted arrogance. Besides, I already told you that you can't kill me, but

you didn't believe me," Ricky said coldly, while a mischievous smirk played on his lips.

"This is my counter-strategy for your cowardly plot, and don't act smart, because I already knew you

were there, even while you hid in that airship."

"Young master, please save us!" the three members of the Shen Clan groaned in pain from their

countless injuries, and they stretched out their hands for help.

They knew that if the three of them were not rescued promptly, their injuries would lead to their deaths.

But everyone underestimated the killing intent in Oswald's heart, and he didn't even look at the three

injured members of the Shen Clan. Instead, he flipped his palm, and the heavy blue water condensed

into three streams of sword energy, which directly pierced through their foreheads, instantly killing his

men.

"You are a heartless beast! You even killed your own people, when they could have survived if only you

gave them a little bit of your strength," Ricky said furiously. Even though he didn't care for those men,

the injustice that they had suffered greatly angered him.

"Humph! They are nothing but useless trash, and even if they survived, they would still be useless to

me," Oswald said, with an eyebrow arched in disgust. "Besides, shouldn't you thank me for helping you

kill them?"

"Ricky, I'm afraid that his mind has already been corrupted by the Blue Water Mutant, and now, he

would even kill his closest family member without hesitation, if that person was no longer useful to

him," Tina said, and she sounded appropriately horrified by this idea.

"The Blue Water Mutant is truly one of the most vicious mutants, and perhaps, it is because of its

viciousness that it has become one of the most extreme mutants."

"This mutant is incredibly dangerous, both to the one who owns it and the others around him," Ricky

said seriously.

"Oswald, you have no humanity," Gerry also said coldly.

"Ha-ha! That's because I'm not a human being like you. Why do I need humanity? Anyone who violates

me shall die. You are all going to die here today," Oswald declared with a demonic grin on his face.

"First of all, thank you for telling us all of your plots. But I want to remind you that you cannot kill me,

although you would have had a better chance if your Blue Water Mutant reached the ninth level!" Ricky

responded coldly.

Boom!

In the next moment, Ricky's momentum also burst out in preparation to fight, as he would like to try just

how vicious this Blue Water Mutant was. He had high hopes for it, as it was said to be one of the most

vicious mutants, so he hoped he would not be disappointed.

"Kenney, let's fight together against him!" Gerry called out just before Ricky attacked.

"Okay!" Ricky nodded in agreement before the two of them pushed their strength to the extreme.

It was because they knew that Oswald and his Blue Water Mutant were essentially indestructible, so it

was better for them to work together.

And although it was true that Ricky was very competitive, he was not paranoid nor arrogant enough to

believe that he could take on everything.

In his opinion, he'd better cooperate with Gerry for this battle, because it would be very difficult for him

to defeat Oswald alone unless he revealed too many things.

"Well, let's test the vicious nature of this mutant together," Gerry said seriously while his momentum

was surging. He also hated the owner of such a mutant, and the things that Oswald had told them

earlier stoked the fire that was burning in his heart. Oswald would die today.
