GOD OF WAR BRINGS JUSTICE CHAPTER 134
" If he shouts once again, fire at him mercilessly. Peasants like them are just waste to the lands like James Donovan!"The ruthless word from Victor was enough to put a feeling of discouragement into the guard’s mind and he quietly withdrew from disturbing Victor, moving away from the Mercedes Benz. He watched the car sped away, disappearing into the dark, but there was nothing he could do. Shortly after, the Mercedes Benz arrived back at the Tarlose Villa, pulling up at the garage where dozens of expensive cars were parked gracefully.However, all these didn't mean anything to Jessica as her mind appeared to be somewhere else. Victor welcomed Jessica into the villa, leading her to the lounge so they could relax and have a discussion properly. " So what do you want to tell me, Jessica? " Victor demanded, sitting calmly and crossing his legs together. He looked as if he wasn't the same person who had just sent a guard out from his car in the middle of the night. " You see, m

The next morning, the air was thick with tension as General LaGrine pulled into the driveway of the base house where James resided. The general’s demeanor was stiff, his sharp eyes scanning the surroundings as he entered. Inside, James sat in quiet contemplation, his coffee steaming on the table.LaGrine didn’t waste time on pleasantries. “James, there’s a billion-dollar bounty on your head,” he said, his voice low but urgent.James raised an eyebrow but remained calm, his demeanor unchanged. “Wei Zhao,” he said simply.LaGrine nodded. “And likely Tarlose as well. They’re pulling every string they’ve got. The bounty’s not just for you—it includes your family. You need to be on alert.”James’s jaw tightened. “I expected this. They’ve been waiting for the right moment.”LaGrine hesitated for a moment, then leaned closer. “This isn’t just a mafia game anymore. Enzo Black, also known as Code Red, is involved. He’s part of Wei Zhao’s dark circle. This is serious, James. They’re sending ass

Kael leaned over the map spread across the table, his brows furrowed in concentration. "The bounty has doubled. Two billion now, James," he said, his voice grim. "And The Specters have accepted it."James exhaled sharply, gripping the edge of the table. "So, they've made their move. We can’t wait for them to come to us. We strike first."Winter crossed her arms, leaning against the wall. "Easier said than done. The Specters are ghosts, James. They don’t leave trails, and their leader? No one’s ever seen them.""We don’t need to see them to find them," James replied, his tone firm. "Everyone has a weakness, even ghosts."Kael exchanged a glance with Winter before speaking. "We’ve identified some of their operatives, but they’re spread thin. Taking them out individually might not draw out the leader."James paced the room, his hands clasped behind his back. "Then we make them come to us. Set a trap. But first, we need leverage. What do we know about their finances, contacts, or safehous

The dim light of James’ safehouse cast long shadows over the room as Kael slammed a map onto the table.Winter leaned against the wall, her arms crossed, watching him with a sharp eye.“They’re everywhere,” Kael said, his voice taut.“Infiltrating our businesses, our people. It’s only a matter of time before they figure out where we’re hiding Emily.”James exhaled slowly, running a hand through his hair.“Then we move her. I’ll have no one touch her.”Winter interjected, her tone clipped.“It’s not that simple. Wei Zhao isn’t just relying on The Specters anymore. The Tarlose family has joined forces with him. Skilled assassins, spies—they’re tightening the noose.”James’ fist slammed against the table, the sound echoing through the room.“And yet, we’re still standing. We’re not running, not yet. If they want to play games, we’ll beat them at it.”Kael nodded but looked skeptical. “We need a new angle. We’re playing defense while they’re escalating every move.”“That’s why we isolate
GOD OF WAR BRINGS JUSTICE CHAPTER 138
The room erupted into chaos as gunfire filled the air. James and Kael moved like a well-oiled machine, their years of experience evident in every calculated move.“Kael, left!” James shouted, taking out one of the operatives with a single shot.“Got it!” Kael ducked, firing at another, his aim deadly accurate.Winter’s voice crackled over the comms. “Two trying to escape through the back. I’ve got them.”James glanced at Kael. “We finish this now. No survivors.”The leader of the operatives lunged at James, a knife glinting in his hand. James sidestepped, grabbing the man’s arm and twisting it until he heard the sickening crack of bone. The man screamed, but James didn’t hesitate, delivering a final, decisive blow.Kael finished off the last operative, his chest heaving as the silence settled over the room.“That was messy,” Kael muttered, wiping sweat from his brow.James nodded, his expression grim. “It’s only going to get worse.”Winter reappeared, blood on her blade but otherwise

Winter tightened her grip on the folder of documents she’d obtained from the whistleblower, her footsteps echoing as she moved toward her car.Her senses prickled, the weight of unease settling over her like a suffocating fog.Her mind replayed the whistleblower’s words. “The Tarlose family has more allies than you think. If you dig too deep, you’ll find yourself in a grave.”Winter shook off the thought, her resolve firm. She had come too far to back down now.As she reached her car, a sudden noise broke the silence—a scuff of shoes against the pavement. Winter froze, her eyes darting to the shadows.“Leaving so soon?” a voice sneered, low and menacing.Five figures stepped out from the darkness, their faces obscured. The glint of weapons in their hands sent a surge of adrenaline coursing through her.Winter cursed under her breath, clutching the folder tightly. “You’ve got the wrong person,” she said, her voice steady despite the hammering of her heart.“Don’t play coy,” another man

The house was eerily quiet, save for the soft rustling of papers in Emily’s trembling hands.Her eyes scanned the bank statements again, the unauthorized transactions glaring back at her like a betrayal carved in ink. She inhaled sharply, her chest tightening as the weight of realization settled in.Juliet entered the room, her movements poised and deliberate.“Emily, why are you going through those? You should have told me if you needed something.”Emily’s head snapped up, her voice sharp. “Needed something? Like answers, maybe? What are these?” She thrust the papers toward Juliet, her hand shaking.Juliet barely glanced at them before scoffing. “I don’t know what you’re talking about. Those could be anything.”“Don’t lie to me, Juliet,” Emily said, her tone cutting. “These transactions. Thousands of dollars funneled into accounts linked to Code Red. What exactly are you doing?”Juliet’s eyes flickered, a momentary crack in her composed facade. “You don’t understand the bigger pictu

James crouched behind an abandoned vehicle, his eyes fixed on the approaching convoy. Beside him, Kael adjusted his rifle, his expression calm but focused."Here they come," Kael muttered, peering through his scope.James raised his hand, signaling silence. The convoy of black SUVs moved closer, their engines humming ominously in the stillness of the night.“Positions,” James ordered, his voice low but firm. His team melted into the shadows, weapons at the ready.The plan was simple: disable the vehicles, neutralize the guards, and secure the documents. But as the convoy came to a stop, James felt the first prickle of unease. Something was off.Kael frowned, his finger hovering over the trigger. “They’re stopping too early.”James nodded, his instincts screaming at him to abort the mission. But before he could give the order, the rear SUV’s doors swung open, and heavily armed mercenaries poured out, weapons blazing.“Ambush!” James shouted, diving for cover as bullets tore through the

The quiet of the estate was deceptive, the stillness broken only by the rustling of leaves in the wind.James stood on the balcony, staring at the horizon as he allowed himself a rare moment of peace.The Syndicate’s collapse had been a hard-fought victory, but the scars of the battle still lingered.Emily stepped out onto the balcony, her expression soft but curious.“You’re unusually quiet tonight.”James smiled faintly.“Just... thinking. It feels strange, doesn’t it? To have a moment where we’re not fighting for our lives.”Emily placed a hand on his arm.“You’ve earned this peace, James. We both have.”Before James could reply, his earpiece crackled to life.Winter’s voice, sharp and urgent, cut through the stillness.“James, we’ve got a breach—your estate’s perimeter has been compromised. Multiple alarms are tripped, and...” She hesitated.“It’s The Widow.”James’s muscles tensed, and his eyes hardened. “Emily, get inside. Now.”The estate’s security systems buzzed with alerts a

The war room was alive with activity. Monitors displayed live feeds of coordinated raids across multiple countries. Law enforcement teams stormed Syndicate facilities, dismantling their operations piece by piece. James stood at the center of it all, his arms crossed, his gaze fixed on the screens.Kael entered the room, holding a tablet. “Just got confirmation—another shipment intercepted in Rotterdam. That makes twelve facilities down in the last 48 hours.”James nodded, his expression grim but satisfied. “It’s a start. The rest will follow.”Winter’s voice cut through the commotion. “I’ve traced the remaining financial backers. Emily’s team is already preparing the exposure campaign.”Kael grinned. “That’s going to sting. Nothing like dragging corrupt billionaires into the spotlight.”James’s voice was steady. “This only works if we stay ahead of them. The Syndicate thrives in the shadows. We drag them into the light, and they fall apart.”At Emily’s office, the atmosphere was just

The reinforced door creaked open, revealing Andre’s command center.The room was a stark contrast to the rest of the base—brightly lit, with sleek monitors displaying surveillance feeds and tactical maps.At the center stood Andre, flanked by his personal guard, all armed and ready.Andre turned slowly, a smug smile spreading across his face.“Radcliffe. You finally made it. I was starting to think you got lost in the tunnels.”James stepped forward, his team at his back, weapons raised.“It’s over, Andre. Stand down.”Andre chuckled, spreading his arms theatrically.“Over? Oh no, Radcliffe. This is just the beginning. Look at you—storming in here, guns blazing. Do you even realize how much destruction you’ve left in your wake?”James’s voice was calm but firm.“Spare me the speeches. You’ve done more harm than I ever could.”Andre’s smile widened, his tone mocking.“Haven’t I, though? But tell me, James—how many lives have you ruined in your so-called quest for justice? How many inno
CHAPTER 240
The stale air of the tunnel hung heavy as James led his team deeper into the darkness. Their flashlights cut narrow beams through the gloom, illuminating jagged walls and rusted support beams. Every step echoed ominously, the sound swallowed by the oppressive silence.Kael’s voice broke through the tension. “Does it feel like we’re walking straight into a trap, or is that just me?”“It’s not just you,” James replied, his voice low. “Stay sharp. Andre’s not leaving anything to chance.”Winter’s voice came through their earpieces. “You’re about fifty meters from the first checkpoint. Be ready—there’s no way he left this unguarded.”As they rounded a corner, a sudden click echoed beneath Kael’s boot. He froze, glancing down.“Trap,” Kael muttered.James stepped forward, crouching to examine the pressure plate beneath Kael’s foot. His jaw tightened as he assessed the mechanism.“It’s a fragmentation mine,” James said. “Don’t move.”Kael smirked despite the tension. “Wasn’t planning on it.
CHAPTER 239
The newsroom buzzed with activity as Andre’s broadcast played across every major network.He stood before a sleek backdrop bearing the Syndicate’s emblem, his posture confident and his voice smooth.“Citizens of the world,” Andre began, his tone dripping with authority, “James Radcliffe, the so-called ‘hero,’ has been lying to you. He is no savior. He is a destroyer. And I have proof.”The screen shifted to show doctored footage of James, his voice and face manipulated to make it seem like he was planning a devastating attack on Emily’s company headquarters.Andre’s voice returned, grim and commanding.“Tomorrow, this tower will burn, and it will be Radcliffe’s doing. But don’t worry—I will be there to rebuild from the ashes.”At the Radcliffe estate, James stood in front of the television, his fists clenched.The footage looped, showing his manipulated image over and over again.“Turn it off,” he said, his voice low but filled with fury.Kael, holding the remote, complied.“He’s good
CHAPTER 238
The icy mountain air cut through the silence as James and his team crouched in the shadow of a jagged ridge.The weapons cache loomed in the distance—a massive steel structure carved into the mountain’s rock face, its entrance heavily guarded by Syndicate forces.James’s voice broke the tense quiet, calm but firm.“Winter, status?”Winter’s voice crackled through his earpiece.“Security systems are standard Syndicate setup. Cameras, motion detectors, and probably a few surprises inside. I can loop the cameras, but you’ll need to move fast once you’re in.”Kael adjusted his rifle.“Standard Syndicate setup means more than just guards. They’ll have traps waiting for us, too.”“They always do,” James said, his eyes scanning the facility. “We stick to the plan. Infiltrate, disable the weapons, and get out.”Emily’s voice came through the comms, steady and supportive. “Be careful, James. We don’t know what surprises Andre left behind.”James’s jaw tightened. “We’ll handle it.”The team mov

The dimly lit cell felt colder than usual as James entered, the door clanging shut behind him. Zhao sat calmly on the cot, his legs crossed, a faint smirk on his face. The bruises from his capture had faded, but his arrogance remained intact.“Ah, Radcliffe,” Zhao said, his tone light and mocking. “Come to gloat? Or are you here to entertain me with more empty threats?”James’s expression didn’t waver as he pulled a chair across the room, the sound scraping against the concrete floor. He sat down directly in front of Zhao, his gaze unflinching.“This isn’t a game, Zhao,” James said, his voice low and cold. “Andre’s making moves, and I know you’ve been in contact with him.”Zhao chuckled, leaning back against the wall. “Andre? Ambitious, isn’t he? But unpredictable. He doesn’t listen like I did.”James slammed his hand on the table, the sound reverberating through the small space. “Enough with the theatrics. What’s his plan?”Zhao tilted his head, feigning innocence. “Even if I knew, w

The compound buzzed with energy as James outlined his plan, his voice steady and commanding despite the chaos outside.“We use their aggression against them,” James said, pointing at a map of the stronghold displayed on a monitor.“Andre thinks brute force will break us, but we’ll turn this into his worst nightmare. Set up traps in these choke points, and we’ll ambush them where they least expect it.”Kael nodded, his face grim but focused. “What about their heavy hitters? The Titan’s leading their frontline. He’s not exactly easy to miss.”James looked at Kael, his tone sharp. “You’ll take him. Keep him busy, and make sure he doesn’t disrupt the traps.”Kael smirked, adjusting the strap of his rifle. “You always give me the fun jobs.”Winter’s voice came through the comms. “I’ve breached their network. I can start feeding false intel, but it’ll only buy us so much time.”James nodded. “Do it. Confusion is our best weapon right now.”Emily, standing nearby, stepped forward. “And what
CHAPTER 235
The first explosion ripped through the quiet morning, sending debris raining down on the outer wall of the stronghold.The alarms blared almost instantly, red lights flashing across the compound as James and Kael sprinted toward the command center.“They’re hitting us hard,” Kael said, adjusting his rifle as they ran. “They didn’t waste any time.”“They want to overwhelm us,” James replied, his voice steady. “But they don’t know what we’re capable of.”Winter’s voice crackled through their earpieces. “Andre’s forces are coming from three directions: the north, east, and west. They’re heavily armed, and they’ve got tech we haven’t seen before. We’re deploying countermeasures, but the outer defenses won’t hold for long.”“Then we make our stand inside,” James said. “Get everyone ready.”The compound shook as another explosion rocked the north wall. Kael barked orders to a group of defenders, his voice cutting through the chaos.“Set up suppressing fire here! Cover the entrance and don’t
