Clubs nearly had a stroke from anger.
His face twisted in disbelief, showing a rare loss of composure in his life.
Isabelle taunted him, “Sometimes the smartest people outsmart themselves.” She was mocking him.
If she hadn’t pretended to be unconscious and allowed herself to be captured, how else would she have infiltrated so deeply? She had to take the risk to get the job done.
Dark Shadow’s members couldn’t change their ways, especially after losing so many elite fighters. They wouldn’t miss the chance to study her genes, which were as valuable as Blood Shadow’s.
Clubs realised he’d been outsmarted and was the one fooled, feeling his murderous intent rising.
However, he couldn’t act rashly.
Isabelle held the scientist who had mastered the technique hostage.
As long as the scientists lived, they could start over.
Clubs quickly calmed down, suppressing his murderous rage. He negotiated, “Release him, and I’ll let you go.”
He knew he’d underestimated her.
Isabelle agreed readily, “Deal.”
Clubs signalled his men to lower their weapons and clear a path for Isabelle.
The doctor had been roused forcefully by Isabelle. He was in a daze and too shocked to react.
Isabelle used him as a shield, moving step by step towards the exit.
The Sky Eye robot floated above Isabelle, leading the way.
Clubs gave his men the command, “Go put out the fire.”
They had to salvage as much as they could before the fire spread and destroyed other labs and data.
Isabelle moved towards the exit, retreating step by step with the doctor.
Clubs kept a close watch on them, a deadly chain concealed in his sleeve, ready to strike at any moment.
He wanted nothing more than to kill Isabelle right then and there.
The Sky Eye robot guided them./
As they neared the exit to the surface, the Sky Eye robot suddenly issued a warning.
“Detected infrared rays! Danger!”
Isabelle halted immediately, peeking out from behind the doctor to glare at Clubs.

Clubs gritted his teeth. Then, he reluctantly used a remote control to deactivate the infrared barrier. serving as a door.
The group returned to the surface.
Clubs demanded, “Now let him go.”
Isabelle asked, “Where’s Jacques?”
Clubs replied, “Jacques? You mean Storm Shadow’s brother?”
Having Jacques impersonate Joshua was his and Joker’s idea. Jacques had proven to be useless.
Isabelle stated, “Hand him over. I want him alive or dead.”
Clubs responded, “He’s not with me. You should look for Joker.”
Isabelle demanded, “Where is Death Gate?”
Clubs remained silent.
Isabelle tightened her grip on the scientist’s neck, causing him to gasp for air and regain some awareness.
Clubs finally relented, saying, “Hidden in the western side of the Bering Sea.”
Isabelle pressed, “Exact coordinates.”
Clubs could barely contain his fury. He glanced at the choking scientist and reluctantly gave her the information. Then he threatened, “I’ll say it one last time. Let him go.”
Isabelle agreed with a smile, “Sure.”
In an instant, she twisted the scientist’s neck with a sharp crack.
The scientist fell dead.
Before his death, he was unable to even scream.
Clubs watched in horror as she discarded the lifeless body like trash. His complexion turned sinister and menacing.
With the hostage gone, Isabelle was fearless and even had the mood to mock Clubs, “Luck alone isn’t always good.
“My luck is always backed by my skills.”
Isabelle declared, “I’m here to kill you.”
