The people that Bruce kept behind bars were none other than the Lopez and Black families.
Henry, Fabian, Shaun, Logan, Jennie, and the others were all there.
During the crisis in Erudia, they retreated to Zarain.
However, after Zarain successfully defended itself against Erudia, they were stripped of all their assets and were kicked out of the country.
This led them to a conundrum. They couldn’t return to either Zarain or Erudia.
Without a place to call home, they lived like stray dogs.
They had to endure a plethora of hardships just to stay alive.
If it wasn’t for their combat skills, they would’ve been dead already.
Later on, these people came to Bruce’s mind while he was helping Jared with his experiment.
Bruce wanted to make them his test subjects.
So, he ordered his men to capture them and bring them to him.
Once they were in his captivity, Bruce injected super serum and various other chemicals into them, enhancing their physical strengths as well as their mental capabilities.
In order for them to withstand Jared’s experiment, they need to become stronger!
Bruce wanted every one of his test subjects to survive Jared’s experiment.
I need all of them to get revenge for me!
“Do you know who made you all suffer?” Bruce queried.
“Levi!” he added.
Upon hearing the name Levi, Logan was furious.
Because of his restraining order, we weren’t able to return to Erudia. It’s all his fault!
Many people begged for him to remove the order, but he didn’t even bat an eye.
Everything’s gone awry because of him!
“I’ll give you guys a chance to get revenge on him. What do you say?”
The Lopez and black families went pensive and quiet.
Can we really trust him?
“What are you guys worried about? Fine, I’ll give it to you straight! I want to get rid of Levi! And you guys are the pawns to achieve that goal! My experiment will get you prepared to fight him.”
The Lopez and black families pondered for a while.
It’s not like we have a choice here. He’ll kill us anyway if we refuse to comply.
We should just accept his proposal.
Besides, we do still have a score to settle with Levi.
Isolated from the outside world, the Lopez and Black families hadn’t heard of Levi’s death.
Thus, they ended up being deceived by Bruce’s words.
“Okay, we’ll kill Levi for you!”
Bruce was delighted to hear their answer.
I can use their grudge against Levi to control them.
“Our situation is looking great! However, there are still some concerns.
“We still need to be cautious of Levi’s kid. She’ll become an issue to us once she’s grown up.
“Moreover, we also need to keep tabs on Zoey. “If she falls into The Cardinal Hall’s hands, it’ll become a huge problem for us.
“Last but not least, we need to be aware of Wynona. Her abnormal powers pose a threat to us.”
Bruce paused for a while before continuing, “We need to find a way to capture the three of them! If I send a few of my test subjects after them, will they be able to bring them here?”
The others quickly nodded.
“Yes, of course. Mr. Johnston, you can use this chance to observe their strength in combat!”
“I see, okay. I’ll come up with some backup plans just in case. I must restrain the three of them at all costs.”
Out of the blue, a person rushed into the room.
“Mr. Johnston, someone is here to see you!”
“Who?” Bruce had a perplexed look on his face.
“I’m not sure. He calls himself the founder of The Dark Sun.”
