Chapter 26 - Chapter 26 : Cloning

Because the situation was becoming more and more of a trap for everyone involved, Art and the police finally decided to meet Rojan, under the protection of several snipers.

They agreed to release Delvi and hand her over to Rojan so that Rojan would also release his hostage, Julia.

Afterward, Art and his friends returned to Art's house and went to Delvi's room, but her hands were still cuffed by the police.

Then they brought Delvi into the car, along with Art, his friends, and the snipers.

They all headed to the electric train station. Upon arrival, the others waited in the car, remaining on guard in case Rojan made any suspicious move—so the snipers could immediately shoot Rojan and Polo.

Then Art and Delvi got out of the car and saw Rojan in front of the station, holding Julia.

"Alright, now let go of Julia, bring her here, and I will release Delvi!" Art said as he prepared to remove the handcuffs on Delvi.

Rojan slowly approached Art, carrying the still half-conscious Julia, and began to untie the bindings on her hands and mouth.

Once the handcuffs were removed, Delvi immediately ran toward Rojan. Rojan signaled her with a hand gesture, and both of them ran away without releasing Julia.

"Hey! Where are you going? Don't run!" Art shouted as he attempted to chase after them.

But the sniper in the car took a shot—though it missed—because Rojan had already teleported and vanished.

They all got out of the car and searched for Rojan, but it was too late—he had disappeared without releasing Julia.

"That bastard! He broke the agreement! He must be captured and punished!" Art shouted angrily.

The police and snipers were stunned by the situation, all wondering how Rojan could disappear so fast—faster than a bullet, like a ghost. They regretted the outcome.

"What now? Julia wasn't released, and our key captive, Delvi, has escaped. You've made us, the police, disappointed!" the officer said sternly.

Art could only stay silent, regretting his actions. Rojan was far more cunning than he had expected, tricking them with a fake deal.

"We don't care what it takes—you must recapture Delvi so Rojan can finally be apprehended. We've already filed reports to bring Rojan to justice in court, but now he has escaped. Delvi was our only bait. We're tired of dealing with this case! Rojan is a top-level criminal who is hard to catch!" the officer explained.

Then they all got back into the car and returned to the police station, while Art remained sitting at the station, alone.

Art lamented the situation that had disappointed the police, feeling weak and unsure of what to do next...

Meanwhile, his friends waited at the police station.

On the other side, Rojan, Polo, and Delvi escaped and headed to the palace, bringing the unconscious Julia with them.

"We finally managed to trick them. Good thing you acted quickly—otherwise, we might've been caught!" said Rojan.

"Alright, what should we do with Art's girlfriend now?" said Polo, exhausted from carrying Julia around.

"Just lay her down in a room and lock her up. Let Delvi take care of her. Make sure she's not hurt—she'll be useful for our next mission!" Rojan ordered.

Then Polo and Delvi took Julia to a room and laid her down.

Meanwhile, Art was approached by his friends who had gotten out of the car.

"We already know everything! So, what's our next move?" asked Tommy and Avicii.

"Give me a moment, friends! Let me think and find a way to rescue Julia. I feel sorry for her—because of me, she got dragged into all of this!" Art explained to Tommy and Avicii.

"Alright. As your friends, we also feel what you're going through and understand your thoughts. We'll always help you in this problem!" said Tommy and Avicii.

Meanwhile, Guru at the artist's shop was surprised by a few police officers asking about Art's whereabouts.

"Where is Art now, sir?" asked Mr. Roger and Mr. Jemy.

"Oh, I don't know either, sir. He hasn't been home for two days. He left with some police and FBI agents—they needed Art's help with an investigation!" Guru explained.

"Alright then, we'll take our leave!" said Mr. Roger and Mr. Jemy, and they went off to search for Art...

Not long after, night fell, and the full moon appeared. Mr. Roger and Mr. Jemy turned back into werewolves and went to see Art, who was near the train station with Tommy and Avicii.

"What are you all doing here?" they asked.

"Oh, you're Mr. Roger and Mr. Jemy, the ones who turned into werewolves?" said Tommy, surprised by their arrival.

"This is bad, sir. They've managed to escape with Delvi and Julia!" Art added.

"They escaped? This cannot be allowed. We must capture that bastard!" The werewolves then ran off, leaving Art and his friends.

The next day arrived. Rojan went to meet with some of his soldiers to instruct them to build cannons and weapons to strengthen their defense systems.

"You, the soldiers, build a giant cannon and create advanced electric towers so we can defend ourselves against sudden attacks. I don't want the past to repeat itself!" Rojan ordered.

Then all the soldiers began constructing towers that could launch rockets at enemies and a massive cannon that could be controlled by advanced computers.

While that work was ongoing, Polo approached Rojan to talk about the laboratory project that had once been built by his father, located not far from the palace.

"I found several preserved human bodies—they were soldiers who died in battle. Let's use the masked warriors to continue the project!" Polo said.

"What are those dead soldiers for?" asked Rojan.

"We'll revive them into strong and tough robot soldiers!" Polo replied.

"Why would we need robot soldiers when we already have masked warriors with powers far beyond any robot?" Rojan asked, disagreeing with Polo.

"These robot soldiers are essential for our front-line defense, while the masked warriors are for the rear defense.

The weakness of the masked warriors is that they rely on magical energy. If our magic is depleted, they'll vanish too.

It's different with robot soldiers. They'll remain active as long as their DNA core is still functioning.

Each has its strengths and weaknesses!" Polo explained.

Rojan finally agreed with Polo's idea and proceeded with the laboratory project.
