Chapter 416 The Robot Is Annoying
This was quite understandable.

It couldn’t be that Dark Shadow cloned Blood Shadow just to strengthen themselves. If they simply wanted to expand their ranks with thousands of Blood Shadow clones, they wouldn’t have needed to kill Blood Shadow.
No matter how powerful a clone, it wouldn’t surpass the original genetic body.
For such a talented assassin that the organisation had so much effort put into their training, nobody would want to destroy their carefully crafted masterpiece unless absolutely necessary.
Tony’s words made Moon Shadow, who had been silent for a while, fall into deep thought. It was unclear whether he believed it or not.
Isabelle corrected, “Actually, it was a mutual destruction.”
Tony replied, “Got it, Ma’am.”
Ma’am seemed to care a lot about the honour and reputation of this undefeated genius assassin. Did she really know them?
Moon Shadow asked, “Why do you know all this so well?
She knew exactly how many days Blood Shadow had been detained, whether they were killed, or whether it was mutual destruction.
Tony was also curious.
Moon Shadow asked, “Your skills are so similar to hers. Do you also have her genes? Are you here to avenge Blood Shadow?”
Was this girl part of the backup plan that Blood Shallow left for herself?
“So, was Blood Shadow willing, or deceived?”
If deceived, why leave a backup plan in advance?
If it was voluntary, how did it lead to mutual destruction?
Isabelle smirked mockingly but didn’t answer.
Moon Shadow pressed. “Or was it the case that Blood Shadow had ulterior motives all along?”
It was unclear if he was probing or refusing to believe this truth.
Isabelle was too lazy to argue with him. She simply said, “I never persuade others about life and death matters, so you don’t need to rush to know or believe.” She added casually, “Dark Shadow has suffered heavy losses now. Soon there will be another ‘mission failed‘ Blood Shadow. You could be next.”
Without saying a word, Moon Shadow looked at her.
The conversation seemed to have soured Isabelle’s mood. Her expression darkened, and the air around

At that moment, the robot who had remained silent for a while, lit up his screen, trying to draw attention. It said, “Honey, I want to recharge.”
Isabelle frowned and chided, “Charge yourself. You’re a grown man. Do you need me to pull down your pants to go to the bathroom? Stop making useless conversation.”
A grown–man? Is she talking about the robot?
Tony’s expression was a mix of emotions. Imagine Isabelle saying this to the real George; he can’t imagine it.
Luckily, such a thing would never happen.
The deep male voice carried a hint of grievance, pleading, “Honey.”
Tony glanced at the robot in the passenger seat. Those big eyes seemed to be filled with invisible tears. D*mn, it was hard for him to look at this robot while it was using his boss’s voice.
After one look, Tony quickly turned away.
Hearing the robot prompt that it still had 98.8% power, Tony said, “Don’t you have plenty of power left?”
The robot seemed reluctant to respond to him.
After a moment, it coldly said, “The desert has many unknown dangers. I need to store enough power to protect my honey.”
Tony scoffed, “Protect the Ma’am? You’re just a robot. Besides spouting facts and entertaining, what else can you do?”
“I can do a lot more.”
Tony muttered, “Though you use my boss’s voice, it’s just the voice.”
His boss never talked this much and wouldn’t say these things.
How did Boss permit this use of his voice?
It really tarnished his image.
The car drove through the desert all day.
Tony stopped to refuel and grabbed a jacket for himself.
“Hey, how much farther is it? You better not be lying to us. Hiking in the desert is no joke.” Tony twisted open a bottle of water and drank half of it.
The wind and sand stung his eyes. For kilometers around, there was nothing but yellow sand–no other colours in sight.
Although Tony had lived in Aviara for years, he rarely ventured this deep into the desert.
One should not take quicksand and sandstorms lightly.
