"I was wondering when we’d finally meet in person," Scott added, his piercing gaze never wavering.A cold shiver ran down Wang Jian’s spine.For a long moment, Wang Jian stood motionless, his heart pounding against his ribcage, his breath caught in his throat. He had spent days searching for this man, hunting him down with unwavering determination, yet now, standing face to face with him, he felt something he hadn’t anticipated—intimidation.There was something about Scott’s presence, something suffocating. His sharp gaze alone sent an icy dread creeping down Wang Jian’s spine, an unspoken dominance radiating from his every movement.After a few tense moments, Wang Jian swallowed hard and finally spoke, his voice carefully controlled. "And you must be Scott. You look more handsome in person."Scott’s expression remained unmoved, his eyes locked onto Wang Jian with deadly focus. "You've gone too far," he said coldly. "You killed my men, turned my friend against me, and nearly burnt dow

"Ahhhh!" The man screamed as he began to fall, and as his body plummeted through the air, the Concrete Men swiftly shifted their guns toward him and opened fire.However, the moment their attention wavered, Wang Jian's men surged out of the mansion like a wave, their weapons raised, unleashing a relentless barrage of gunfire. The sudden ambush caught the Concrete Men off guard, bullets tearing through their ranks as they scrambled for cover. Blood splattered across the pavement, bodies collapsing like marionettes with severed strings.Despite the chaos unfolding outside, Feng remained inside one of the mansion’s rooms, watching from the second-floor window. A smirk tugged at his lips, his expression void of remorse. He had just sacrificed one of his own, yet there was no flicker of guilt in his cold, calculating eyes. To him, it was nothing more than a necessary move on the chessboard of war.Down below, the gunfight intensified. Wang Jian's men continued their relentless advance, the

The deafening explosion sent guards stumbling as dust and debris filled the air. Every head snapped toward the breach, eyes widening with alarm.Inside the mansion, Wang Jian’s grip tightened around his whiskey glass, the sound of destruction reverberating through the halls. His jaw clenched."What was that noise?!" he demanded, swiftly rising to his feet.His men ignored him, too focused on rushing toward the back of the mansion to investigate. Wang Jian stood motionless for a moment, his mind racing, before striding forward.Before he could take a step, a firm hand gripped his arm from behind. Wang Jian turned sharply, scowling as he met Cao Ning’s wary gaze."What’s the matter?" Wang Jian’s voice carried a sharp edge of irritation."That sound—it’s most likely Scott and his men," Cao Ning said, his tone steady but urgent. "We don’t know how many of them are out there or what kind of firepower they brought. For your safety, I think it’s best you stay inside."Wang Jian’s face twiste

"You lost the combat… now you must die." Scott stated coldly. Without hesitation, he pulled the trigger.BANG!Blood splattered across the ground as the bullet tore through Podrick’s skull, his lifeless body crumpling to the dirt. Scott watched in silence for a moment, his gaze impassive as he observed the corpse at his feet. Then, without another word, he turned on his heel and strode toward his truck.Lee and Evelyn stood waiting beside the vehicle. Evelyn’s breath hitched as she saw Scott approaching, a cold sweat trickling down her face. Every instinct screamed at her to run, but she knew it was pointless.Scott came to a halt just a few paces away."You fought well, boss," Lee commented, offering a slight bow of respect."I wouldn't call that a fight," Scott replied dismissively before shifting his piercing gaze toward Evelyn. "Now that I'm done with Podrick, what do I do with you?" He said.Evelyn swallowed hard, her body frozen under his scrutiny. Her lips trembled, but she for

The trucks drove away immediately after Scott gave the order, leaving the deserted area eerily silent. The only people left were Scott, Lee, Podrick, and Evelyn.Scott stood opposite Podrick, rolling up his sleeves in preparation. His movements were slow and deliberate, exuding an air of absolute control. Podrick, on the other hand, remained tense, his jaw clenched as his muscles coiled with anticipation. Beside him, Evelyn stood with her hands bound, her heart hammering against her ribcage.She wasn’t sure what her fate would be.So far, Scott hadn’t said a single word to her—hadn’t even acknowledged her presence. It was as if she were a mere ghost, a shadow in the periphery of the unfolding scene. The only one who seemed to truly see her was Podrick.Evelyn was part of Wang Jian's army, and she had killed one of Scott's men in the past. If Scott had sentenced Podrick to death for betrayal, then surely, her fate was sealed as well.And yet, for some reason, he hadn't addressed her.I

The place fell silent after Scott finished speaking, and all eyes were now fixed on Podrick. He stood there, fidgeting, his entire body trembling like a leaf caught in a storm. The pistol he held in his right hand shook so violently that it was a miracle he hadn’t dropped it yet. Sweat poured down his face like a relentless waterfall, dampening his collar and soaking into the fabric of his shirt. His breaths were uneven, shallow gasps barely able to sustain his body. His mind screamed at him to run, but his feet remained rooted to the ground, paralyzed by the inescapable reality before him.There was no point in lying—he had been caught. There was also no escaping this.A bitter laugh nearly escaped his lips at the cruel irony of it all. After everything he had done, after all the calculated moves he had made, it had all been for nothing. His only wish now was for the earth beneath him to split open and swallow him whole, to spare him from the fate he knew awaited him. But no such m

After tossing the body of the first guard overboard, he shifted his gaze towards the second one and began to walk towards him. His blood-soaked dagger clenched tightly in his right hand as he advanced forward. When he arrived behind him he wrapped his left arm around his neck, and with his right hand gripping his dagger he attempted to slit his throat but the man was quick.He grabbed Oswald's arm, preventing him from using his dagger. After grabbing his dagger he placed his right leg on the wall and pushed himself backwards with full force until both him and Oswald fell. Oswald swiftly rose back to his feet, and when the man attempted to grab his gun that fell from his hand after they landed, he charged forward and shoved him to the floor. After successfully shoving him to the floor Oswald sat above him and grabbed his neck with both hands.He tightened his grip around his neck, squeezing the life out of him. The man struggled to set himself free but Oswald's strength was overwhelm

The ship sailed through the waters slowly, the night was quiet am cold as Oswald stood on the edge, his eyes scanning the area, while Edwin was standing a few meters behind him. They've been out here for a while now. After defeating the first set of Gambino boys they encountered earlier there haven't been a sign of anyone else, not even a sign of the shipment.Oswald had assumed it would arrive a few minutes after the fight, but was now close to an hour and still no sign of anything. All they could see around them were water and more waters.Edwin couldn't handle the awward silence anymore so he decided to speak up."Do you think they took another route? They probably found out we were trying to steal it from them so they decided to deliver it in a different area." Edwin bellowed."No, I don't think so. No one knows we are out here. No one knows what we are planning to do. The only people that knows has been killed by me, you saw it. It might take longer than we thought but they'll d

Oswald crouched beside the railing, his gaze still fixed on the direction of Gambino's boat. He attached a silencer, and a soft clicking sound echoed through the stillness. Oswald loaded the magazine, the bullets glinting in the fading light. He chambered a round, the mechanism snapping into place with a satisfying crunch. With a deep breath, he settled into position, his finger resting on the trigger.He aimed for one of the Gambinos before pulling the trigger and the man dropped dead right where he was with blood splattering around the place."Sniper! Everyone, take cover!" One of them voiced out as they swiftly took cover. "Any idea where he's shooting from?" He asked."No, Sir. We can't see him anywhere around meaning he's attacking from a long range. We also can't counter because our guns are only short range guns." Another comrade responded with his heart racing."Darn it. Who could it be?" He spat.Oswald lowered the sniper after they all took cover, and he shifted his gaze bac

Edwin and Oswald exited the wheat farm and began to head towards the docks. They walked for a few moments before they finally arrived there.A medium-sized ship was already waiting for them there, and a man could be seen on the ship. The man seemed to be in his late forties, clad in a dirty brown suit, and a brown hat was sitting on his head."Evening, Uncle Duncan. Thanks for preparing the ship just like I asked." Oswald stated with a smile on his face.The man in a dirty brown suit, known as Uncle Duncan, got off the ship and walked towards Oswald."This is very dangerous, Oswald, why did you have to bring your younger brother?" Uncle Duncan asked with a slight frown as he glanced at Edwin."Because, Uncle Duncan, you and Edwin are the only people I trust in the entire world. I would have asked you to come with me but my father needs you back home and it will look suspicious if you are nowhere to be found. That's why I asked him to come along." Oswald replied audibly as he lit a cig

Edwin drove his car through the dimly lit street of Newcastle. The streets were almost pitch black and empty, and the only source of light was the light from his car. Driving a few meters behind him was Marcellus. Marcellus had his gaze fixed intently on Edwin's car."What are you up to?" He mused while driving forward. Marcellus suspected that Oswald and Edwin were responsible for the death of Timothy Hardcastle but he was unable to prove anything. Without any proof no one would believe a word he says.So right now that he caught Edwin leaving the mansion and driving his car towards a strange area he was sure they were up to something. And maybe if he follows them he might get concrete evidence against them.Edwin drove for several minutes, making his way towards the docks. He rotated the steering of the car and took a turn to a different street. The moment he arrived in the street, Oswald emerged from the shadows and stood in front of his car.Edwin's eyes widened in shock after ca

[A compulsory quest has arrived] [Return back home with the money you won. If you fail and they end up taking it away from you.. you shall be punished severely] [Reward: Hidden] [Punishment: Hidden]Zed glanced at the system's notification with widened eyes. His heart thundered in his chest, and cold sweat trickled down his face. His back was currently facing the thugs, so they couldn't see the tensed expression on his face. "What the hell?" He mused. "Is this system trying to get me killed or what? How on heart do I prevent them from stealing the briefcase?" [You fight with your hands and your legs] The system responded mockingly. "Very helpful." Zed said, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "How do I even fight them? I have never for once attended a boxing class or stepped foot into a karate dojo. So how am I supposed to fight?" The system remained silent, and Zed frowned. "Hey, man, why are you just standing there? Go get the briefcase!" One of the thugs voiced out, causing

All heads turned to Zed as the middle-aged man walked towards him. Zed just stood there calmly with his hands casually tucked in his pockets, and his gaze fixed on the man approaching him.The man finally came to a halt directly in front of him. He glared at him for a few moments before shifting his gaze towards the computer screen where the notification could still be seen.He glanced at the computer's screen for a few moments before shifting his gaze back to Zed. He cleared his throat before speaking, "Congratulations on your win, sir." He said as he shook Zed's hand. "I'll be back shortly with your money." He added before walking away.Shortly after the middle-aged man left, a crowd of people swiftly surrounded Zed. They all begged him to tell them the lucky numbers he used to win so they could copy him and also win. Zed assured them that the same numbers might not work twice in a row, but he decided to tell them nevertheless. Who knows if they'll be lucky.A few moments later, th

Zed sat there in his living room for several minutes, scrolling through his phone to make sure he gets all the latest news and information concerning the engineering companies.After waiting for a few more minutes he heard a knock on his door. He placed the phone on the sofa, rose to his feet, and walked towards the door.He pulled the door open and the first thing he saw was a young woman around his age. She had long black hair, and she was clad in a simple long gown that swept the floor. Even though the gown she wore was super big and long, one could still notice her alluring body figure. She had the type of body that would make every man lust over.Zed glanced at her for a few moments before speaking up, "Uhm.. you must be the woman I spoke with earlier.""Yes, sir. I'm Kimberly. The one you hired." Kimberly introduced with a slight bow."I see." Zed nodded. "Come on in." He gestured, and she walked into the luxurious living room.Stepping inside, she glanced around with her mout

"I asked you a question, didn't I?" Santiago spat.Lucas swallowed hard before responding, "The estimated amount that went missing is $1,000,000,000."Hearing the words of Lucas, the eyes of Santiago and his men in the living room widened in shock. The room fell silent after as Santiago just stood there, processing what he just heard, while Lucas knelt down there shaking with his head bowed down."This is a joke, right? Tell me it's a joke, Lucas. Tell me it's a fucking joke!" Santiago voiced out in anger, causing each and everyone in the room to flinch."I wish it was a joke, sir. But I'm afraid it isn't." Lucas muttered shakily.Santiago stretched forth both of his hands and grabbed his collar before yanking him up to his feet."How the hell did this happen??" Santiago demanded, his voice filled with anger, and his eyes locked on Lucas."I..I have no idea, sir. It was done by a highly skilled hacker. He hacked into the system and withdrew the money. I didn't know how he managed to

"I don't think trades like that makes someone a multimillionaire suddenly." Nick Campbell interjected."Let's just worry about that later. Now we have a big problem at hand. We stole from Zed and chased him away.. he hates us, and now he's our biggest rival. A man as skilled as Zed will definitely build a perfect vehicle with that engine and he will easily get chosen by the US government, while my company would become a laughingstock. I can't let that happen." Mr. Damien mumbled with looks of contemplation."So what are you suggesting, sir? I'm willing to do anything for you." Nick asked."I don't know yet. But I'm sure I'll come up with something." Mr. Damien stated, and Nick Campbell nodded.'"""Somewhere else in the city.A luxurious mansion could be seen standing tall in a deserted area in the city. The compound of the mansion was filled with expensive cars, and several men that were armed with guns could be seen walking around here and there.Inside the living room of the mansio

Mr. Damien could be seen sitting on a couch with a glass of wine in his right hand. Standing opposite him was Nick Campbell."What do you mean you lost the rocket engine, Nick?" Mr. Damien asked, his face bright red in anger as he glared at Nick.Nick Campbell swallowed hard after hearing the words of Mr. Damien, and cold sweat trickled down his face."I was supposed to offer a total of $15,000,000 during the auction just like we talked about, and no one else would be able to offer such an amount and the rocket engine would automatically become ours. But things didn't go exactly as planned, sir. Somebody kept going until I didn't have enough money to keep going." Nick Campbell muttered shakily, and his gaze glued to the floor."What do you mean you don't have enough money to keep going? You should have called me and told me about this..I would have sent you extra $5,000,000 or $10,000,000.. I'm sure that would have shut the person up." Mr. Damien voiced out in anger."You don't unders
