Son-In-Law Madness

Despite claiming that, Donald actually didn't take the dense mist seriously.

Once a Novem Stella Warrior surpassed a certain level, their genes would become locked, rendering genetic weapons ineffective against them.

If Donald wasn't wary about Hannah, he wouldn't even have to resort to using the barrier.

Gathering his own Stella Warrior energy, Donald began to disperse the dense mist on the ship.

As the mist dissipated, Donald realized that the reagent had not only affected the crew members but also Celeb.

Unlike the ordinary crew members who only grew violent, Celeb experienced a surge in power while retaining his sanity.

His body had doubled in size, and his broken arm had completely regenerated.

Seeing that, Donald narrowed his gaze.

Swift regeneration? Does that reagent have that effect?

“Young man, you look quite surprised,” Celeb commented.

Confident after gaining extra power, he picked up the knife discarded by Thom earlier.

Green vine-like veins snaked their way from Celeb's wrist, enveloping the entire length of Thom's knife. The once ordinary weapon now appeared to pulsate with a life of its own, completely transformed into something entirely different.

Donald noticed that Celeb's power continues to surge, rapidly reaching the divine stage of a Novem Stella Warrior, matching his own level.

“I don't think I can keep an eye on you when we get into a fight later. Take this gun, and find a safe hiding spot,” Donald told Hannah, handing a weird-looking gun to her.

He knew he could no longer defeat Celeb with just one move as Celeb could stop him easily if he wanted to.

“Run!” Donald bellowed, his body emanating a formidable aura that sliced through the crew members sprawled on the barrier, severing them in half.

Thankfully, the crew members lacked the regenerative abilities of Celeb and were unable to swiftly recover.

After Donald seized the opportunity to clear a path for Hannah and urged her to flee, she gripped the gun tightly and sprinted toward a nearby cabin, determined to seek shelter.

Witnessing the unfolding situation, Celeb raised his hand and commanded, “Go after the woman! I'll deal with this man.”

The crew members let out a chorus of howls and swiftly gave chase to Hannah.

Instantly, Donald swung his sword with the intent to strike down those pursuing her.

In an unexpected move, Celeb swiftly raised his right arm, conjuring a solid wall of green clay that intercepted Donald's attack, preventing it from reaching its intended targets.

Donald was taken aback when he witnessed the green wall effectively repelling his powerful attack. He hadn't expected it to hold against his assault.
