The command center was chaos. Sparks flew from damaged equipment as James and Kael made their stand, the sound of gunfire and shouts filling the air. LaFarge’s soldiers were closing in, their footsteps heavy and determined.“This is it,” Kael muttered, his breath coming in sharp bursts. He glanced at James. “We need to move, now.”James gritted his teeth, his gaze sharp as he scanned the room for a way out. "I’m not leaving without finishing this."Kael nodded, his eyes darkening with resolve. “Then let’s make sure they regret ever crossing us.”The door to the command center shook violently, the soldiers outside battering it relentlessly. James swiftly grabbed a nearby metal pipe, wielding it like a club. He threw a quick glance at Kael, his lips curling into a tight smirk. "Ready?"Kael’s eyes gleamed. "After you."They barely had time to brace themselves as the door exploded inward. LaFarge stood in the doorway, a sinister grin on his face. “James. Kael. You’re both still alive—bar

The dimly lit room hummed with tension. James stood, arms crossed, watching the mercenary tied to the chair.The man’s face was bruised, his lip swollen from the brief but intense altercation.His eyes darted around, fear evident in every flicker, but he remained silent. James’s expression was cold, unreadable."Talk," James’s voice was low, his gaze unwavering."Where is she?"The mercenary swallowed, beads of sweat forming on his forehead.He had been trained not to break, but under James’s cold stare, his resolve faltered."You... you don’t understand," the man muttered, his voice shaking."It’s a trap. They’re waiting for you."James leaned in, his tone sharpening."Where is Sarah?"The mercenary’s eyes darted nervously to the door."An abandoned factory. On the mainland. They’ve fortified it, rigged it with traps... designed for you. You’re walking into a kill zone if you go after her."Winter, standing by the door, clenched her fists, her concern written all over her face."Jame

The silence of the night was thick, broken only by the soft crunch of gravel beneath their boots.James and Kael moved stealthily, each step calculated, the weight of their mission pressing down on them."You sure this is the place?" Kael whispered, his voice barely audible in the dark.James nodded, his eyes scanning the shadowed factory in front of them."It’s the right one. Winter confirmed the coordinates. Sarah’s in there, Kael. I can feel it."They crouched low, slipping past the initial security checkpoint, careful to avoid any detection.The factory’s towering walls loomed like a prison, and every creak of metal made the hairs on James’s neck stand up.He knew they were walking straight into a trap, but there was no turning back now.As they advanced deeper into the factory, the air grew thick with the scent of oil and rust.James held up his hand, signaling Kael to stop.They crouched by a corner, peering around it.A series of motion sensors lined the hallway ahead.Kael whi

James stood outside the towering skyscraper, the weight of the decision pressing down on him.The city stretched endlessly before him, its lights flickering like distant stars.But in his mind, there was only one thing—the promise Zhao made.Sarah. His daughter. The one person he couldn’t lose.“I’m going in,” James muttered, his voice steady despite the storm raging inside him.Kael, standing beside him, placed a hand on his shoulder. “You know the risks, right? Zhao will have this place locked down tighter than Fort Knox. We’ll stick together.”James nodded, but the fire in his eyes burned with a singular focus. “This ends tonight.”With a deep breath, they approached the entrance, and James’s heart pounded in his chest.The glass doors slid open with a hiss, and the world beyond was a cold, sterile representation of the power Zhao had amassed.Inside, the atmosphere felt oppressive. Bright lights. Silent guards.Everything in its place, as if Zhao was daring James to make the wrong
GOD OF WAR BRINGS JUSTICE CHAPTER 163
As they made their way up, the sense of anticipation intensified. Zhao was watching.He had to be. And with every passing moment, James’s grip on his emotions tightened.He couldn’t afford to let fear or rage take over.He had to remain in control. For Sarah.he next few floors passed without incident. James and Kael moved through them with precision, clearing out guards and disabling security systems.But with each floor, the feeling of something being off grew stronger.Then, they reached the final floor—the penthouse.The elevator doors opened, revealing a long hallway, lined with sleek marble floors and high-end decor.The atmosphere felt like a sick joke. On the one hand, it was the epitome of power.But James knew it for what it really was—Zhao’s throne room, a place where he could watch the world burn.And there, at the end of the hallway, the double doors to the penthouse swung open.Zhao’s silhouette was unmistakable, standing by a large window, looking out over the city.Jam
GOD OF WAR BRINGS JUSTICE CHAPTER 164
The penthouse was eerily quiet, the luxurious decor only amplifying the tension in the room.Zhao sat casually on a velvet armchair, a glass of wine in hand, his cold eyes locked on James.The city skyline shimmered outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, a stark contrast to the storm raging inside James.Sarah sat in a chair beside Zhao, her hands bound with rope.Though her face was pale, there was a glimmer of defiance in her eyes.She was alive.And that was all that mattered.James’s breath hitched in his chest.He stepped forward, his fists clenched, every muscle in his body taut with the need to act.His gaze never left Sarah as he approached, his voice low but firm.“Let her go, Zhao.”Zhao’s lips curled into a smile, his eyes glinting with malice.“You really think you can change anything? You’ve been running in circles, James. You’re too late. This is where it ends for you.”He waved a hand dismissively, as though James’s life was nothing more than an inconvenient distraction.
GOD OF WAR BRINGS JUSTICE CHAPTER 165
The deafening roar of gunfire rang through the hallways, and James’s heart hammered in his chest.He had only one focus now—Sarah.She was just a few feet away, her terrified eyes scanning the chaos as she crouched behind a steel column.James’s gaze locked onto hers, and for a moment, the madness of the battle around them seemed to vanish. His daughter was alive. She was here.“Sarah!” James shouted, pushing through the smoke and debris. His voice was a lifeline in the chaos.She turned at the sound of his voice, her face a mixture of relief and fear. “Dad!” she cried, rushing toward him.But before she could take another step, a round of bullets slammed into the wall beside her, sending fragments flying.James reacted instinctively, throwing himself in front of her.The sting of a bullet grazing his shoulder barely registered as he shielded her with his own body.“Stay down!” he barked, pushing her into the nearest corner.The firefight around them intensified as Zhao’s men converg
GOD OF WAR BRINGS JUSTICE CHAPTER 166
The quiet hum of the computer filled the room, a stark contrast to the tension that hung in the air.James stood by Winter’s desk, watching her work. Her fingers flew over the keyboard, her brow furrowed in concentration.The files from the skyscraper were far more intricate than they’d anticipated, but Winter had a knack for deciphering the most complex codes."Anything?" James asked, his voice low, laced with urgency.Winter glanced up briefly, her eyes tired but determined."I’m getting there. There are plans here to destabilize Emily’s company even further—financial blackmail, insider trading schemes... It’s all designed to ruin her reputation and her business."James clenched his jaw. "Zhao isn’t stopping until he’s destroyed everything we care about."His voice was steely, the fire in his eyes rekindled.“Emily’s already fighting back,” Winter murmured, turning her attention back to the screen.“She’s been holding her own against the media, but it’s relentless. Zhao’s tactics ar

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
CHAPTER 242
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
CHAPTER 241
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
