Chapter 870: Burning fires, burning stones (1)

Erik didn't waste time and absorbed Shade's brain crystal power. That was for sure bound to be useful.

After he was done, Erik and June stood over Shade's body.

Erik looked at Shade's… no Norman Hais's dead body. He bore a deep resemblance to his brother, Martin.

It was ironic, some years ago, he killed the private investigator, who threatened to reveal to the world he had multiple Brain Crystal Powers.

Now, years after, he killed his brother, to whom Erik didn't make any mystery about his abilities.

What was also surprising was that both of them were smart, to a frightening level even.

But while Martin's intelligence was boosted by his brain crystal power, Norman was purely his.

"What a pity."

Erik imagined what could he and his brother have done to society, if only they chose the right path.

Martin was wasted as a private investigator, while Norman used his skills to make havoc.
