Chapter 431 Sudden Deadly Betrayal
“Do you still want to talk me into turning back p>
The men shook their heads frantically.
Finished
They had witnessed the horrid state of the head of the Legislative Council, and none of them wished to suffer the same fate.
Muffled whimpers escaped one captive, who gestured urgently toward Lyra.
Lyra stepped over and unhooked her Star Brain.
“I’ll talk! I’ll tell you everything you want to know p>
Lyra reached out to take back the Star Brain, and the man flinched sharply out of terror.
She shot him a brief glance, retrieved the device, and typed, “Spill everything you know p>
The man was genuinely terrified of ending up broken under torture.
The whipping earlier had already left them shattered.
They had lived in luxury on Core Prime for decades and had never endured such brutality.
“Alright, alright, I’ll tell you every detail p>
Cold sweat covered the man’s face as he typed frantically, but his movements gradually slowed.
Then he abruptly looked up and lunged at Lyra without warning!
Caught completely off guard, Lyra was slammed backward. Her skull struck the floor, and bright bursts of sparks exploded across her vision.
Fighting through the throbbing pain, she stared up at the man’s contorted features.
He had thrown all caution to the wind, driven by total desperation. His bloodshot eyes burned with madness, and both hands clamped tight around her throat.
Meanwhile, the other captives grew restless.
Bestial growls rumbled in their throats, their expressions twisting into something dark and monstrous.
Though still restrained, they wriggled across the floor like vermin, inching closer toward her.
Goosebumps rose all over Lyra’s skin. She could not fathom why these men had devolved into mindless, rabid creatures.
Her airway was crushed shut, and breathing turned impossible.
She fought to pry his hands away, yet his grip was unyielding as iron tongs.

Her fingers serabbled across the floor, hunting for the discarded electric baton.
Finished
Lyra twisted her neck with great effort, spotted the weapon, and stretched every muscle trying to reach it.
At that exact moment, the badly injured head of the Legislative Council stirred.
He twisted his battered body and kicked the lifesaving baton far out of her grasp.
Like the others, his face shone with unnatural frenzy, twisted by cruel satisfaction as he anticipated her demise.
Panic coiled tight inside Lyra’s chest.
Oxygen grew scarcer. Her mouth hung open, yet she could neither draw breath nor call for help.
She kicked her legs and thrashed, straining every muscle in a desperate bid for survival.
The man’s brutal strength threatened to crush her throat like soft modeling clay.
Blood circulation faltered. Her head flushed hot red, and her sight blurred at the edges.
Trapped in agonizing suffocation, Lyra heard voices from outside the room.
Jasper let out a confused hum. “Why has everything gone quiet in there p>
Reid ordered, “Go in and check p>
Crash!
The door burst inward.
The first figure Lyra registered was Specter.
Backlit by the hallway light, a ring of deep, eerie blue glowed within his irises in the dimness.
Specter charged straight inside and delivered a brutal kick to the attacker’s skull. –
A sharp cracking sound echoed. The man’s neck snapped, and he collapsed motionless onto the ground.
The crushing weight vanished. Air flooded back into Lyra’s burning throat. Dizzy and disoriented, every inch of her neck burned as though seared by fire.
Specter’s hard–edged gaze softened at once. He leaned over, alarmed, to check her condition.
When he saw the hideous bruise wrapped around her neck, his pupils constricted. The luminous blue ring around them expanded, amplifying that unsettling, inhuman aura.
Without hesitation, Specter lifted her into his arms to carry her off for medical treatment.
Lyra clung tightly to the fabric of his sleeve. Her bloodshot eyes locked onto his face, trying to convey something wordlessly.
Puzzled, Specter halted, staring back at her with urgent confusion.

Jasper leaned in closer. “What are you trying to tell us p>
Lyra glanced toward him, then lifted a finger pointing at the captives inside the room.
Jasper and Specter traded a quick look.
Reid spoke. “You want them kept alive p>
Lyra tried to nod, but the tiny movement sent scaring pain shooting through her neck, and she winced.
In those few short seconds, Specter propped her upper body up so she could see.
Every one of the prisoners lay limp and unmoving on the floor.
Reid stepped forward to check their vitals, then turned back toward her. “They’re all dead p>
Lyra froze. She stared blankly at the bodies, stunned.
Reid rolled the corpses onto their backs.
Blood oozed from the eyes, noses, and mouths of every man.
Their deaths had been swift and absolute.
Lyra’s vision swam, and she went limp in Specter’s embrace.
None of this made sense.
She looked toward Reid again.
Reid straightened to his feet. “I’ll get to the bottom of this p>
Lyra’s gaze fell.
Specter saw how deathly pale she had become. He wasted no more time and carried her swiftly out.
The remaining men exchanged troubled glances with one another.
After the doctor departed, Specter politely dismissed the local residents who had come to check on Lyra’s condition. He then hurried to her room with a cup of water.
He held the straw gently to her lips.
Lyra stared vacantly into space and drank mechanically.
Seeing her hollow state, Specter said softly, “The doctor says you must stay in bed and rest over the next few days.
I’ll take good care of you p>

Lyra’s eyelashes fluttered, and her gaze slowly shifted toward him.
Under her quiet, unblinking stare, Specter’s eyes flickered.
“If you would rather not have me around… should I send for Wren’s sister instead p>
Lyra kept staring at him without uttering a single sound.
