Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 1355

"Bang!"

The microchip beneath the skin of his neck ruptured instantly.

Special Envoy Mordecai convulsed violently, black blood oozing from his face before he crashed rigidly to the ground.

He was dead beyond any doubt.

Fine metal fragments were mixed in the dark pool of blood.

Jasper recognized the debris immediately; it was a miniature explosive chip implanted long ago, detonated remotely at this exact moment.

"Fuck," he cursed. "They actually planted explosives in their own people!"

A nauseating metallic scent hung heavy in the air.

The group stared down at the corpse, their brows furrowed.

Jerrick's expression darkened, and he let out a low curse. "Damn lunatics. They even guard against their own like this?"

Julian walked in from the corridor and nudged Mordecai's rapidly stiffening body with his shoe. "Silenced on the spot. How ruthlessly efficient."

A thought struck Jasper, and he turned to Serena. "Serena, speaking of which... can you really cure someone after they've been turned into an Obsidian Augment?"

"No," Serena replied evenly, her gaze fixed on the body. "Once they become an Obsidian Augment, their cells, genetics, and neural pathways are permanently altered by the serum. It is biologically impossible to revert them back to normal."

Jasper's eyes lit up. "So, you were just bluffing him earlier?"

"Yes," Serena said.

He flashed her a thumbs-up. "That's my girl. You learned from the best."

Jerrick smacked the back of Jasper's head. "Is this the time for jokes? Our priority is dragging the Obsidian Sun out of the shadows!"

He turned back to Serena. "Everything Mordecai just blurted out... Whitecliffe Harbor, Project Zero-Transit, and The Raven. I'll get my people to investigate."

Serena gave a curt nod.
