2024-09-09 19:37:04Silent as the cicadas in winter, James slowly lowered the X ray vision glass from his eyes.
A wave of an incredulous feeling crashed over him the instant!
Empty?!
How could the warehouse be a trick?!
So it was all a decor, and he had just fallen into the pit of lie!
James knew he had been too eager and impatient earlier, leading him not verifying if the information was accurate or not...
Staring at the unusual expression of James, Kyle didn't know what to say at first, scared of offending the god of war.
However, he couldn't act as if he didn't care, so he spoke out after some seconds of deep deliberation, " My Lord ........"
" It's empty."With sheer rage blazing in his heart, James exerted a large force on the x ray vision glass and cracked it into two, uttering just two words.
Kyle couldn't believe what he just heard, and his facial expression twisted.
The warehouse was empty?!
So does this means it was all planned?!
Who would in the heavens and earth dare to fool the god of war?!
" The Tarlose brother really have the insolent boldness to frustrate and trick you!" Kyle sneered, anger quickening his blood, and he crackled his knuckles.
" What is your decision, my Lord?"
James ignored Kyle's question and took out his phone from his trouser pocket. He dialed Victor's line again, and this time, the call was answered.
" Hahaha!"
A ludicrous laughter laced with mockery, echoed from the other end, the moment the call was answered.
" You discovered it fast. But how stupid? Did you really think I will betray Zhao just because you are the God of war?! Who knows if it's a lie? So foolish of you to believe me. Listen, you are just a god of war in the battlefield , here, Zhao rules!"
Victor snorted and laughed even more. Obviously, one could detect he was extremely pleased with deceiving the titled ' god of war' .
James' face failed to changed or react even after been mocked.
It was like those words meant nothing to him, but Kyle who overheard this, couldn't control gnashing his teeth!
Damn! He wanted to torture Victor in a hundred ways!
How dare he?!
" Where's my daughter?!" James demanded in an icy tone, while secretly calculating in his head.
" Hehe!" Snickering, Victor hissed and spat! " Go and get a coffin if you want to see your daughter. She needs that cause you won't be able to save her!"
Just hearing this, a terrifying blood momentum rose in him, pressuring the atmosphere around to drop by five degrees!
" Touch a strand of her hair, and all your generations will be annihilated!"
His voice came out low but deep as a roar, immediately electrifying the air!
Stunned and disoriented by the terrifying force emanating from James, which spread even into the phone, Victor quietened down for some seconds.
Instantly, Kyle and the rest of the soldiers went down on their knees and inclined their heads downward, displaying respect and fear.
" Hphm! Brainless god of war, find your daughter if you can!"
Victor retorted, although his voice wasn't as bold as earlier.
James hung up the call coldly!
The coldness in his eyes failed to dissipate.
It was a shatter and stab to his dignity that he was deceived! Now, he was left to find his daughter's location before the unthinkable could betide.
He glanced at Kyle and the soldiers kneeling down.
" Up!"
After throwing a command, he didn't hesitate to start calling important dignitaries and figures in the city. He even made a call to the country president, using his god of war title to demand an access to the city's whole information on hospitals and patient, in addition to surveillances.
James knew this was the perfect and necessary time to mobilize all resources and influences need to get where his daughter was and save her before it was too late!
After about ten minutes, he was finally done with the calls and told Kyle," Let's head to the information center."
Kyle straightened himself, giving a nod of agreement.
Just as they were about to walk forward, many tiny red dots suddenly appeared on James' chest, right where his heart was......
The soldiers' eyes contracted, shocked etching on their faces and they quickly lifted their heads.
At the rooftop of warehouse, stood about twenty men, all aiming their snipers towards James' heart, with clear precision.
" Those bloody fools! Are they tired of living?!"
Fury was flooding Kyle's veins as he thought of the audacity of Tarlose brothers and Wei Zhao!
They must be craving for a terrible and horrifying death!
Seeing this, James' lips curled, clasping his hands behind him." You people are really bent on stopping me."
Kyle immediately turned to James and offered politely, " My lord, why don't I deal with them?" " No." James refused, almost instantly and shook his head negatively, lowering his eyes to scan the shadows of the snipers.
" They are mine!"
He was the God of war, and he would crush them!
James unleashed a horrifying and suffocating aura, paving way for the air to become tensed!
The anger of a great warrior had been spiked!
Kyle and the rest of the soldiers took a step backward, deciding to watch the show, with admiration filling their faces.
They knew James had encountered more than this in the battlefield, so it was just a piece of thrash! And for the god of war to let loose such a frightening aura, it was over!
The last time such a force was unleashed, uncountable villains were wiped out incredibly!
Boom!
Swiftly, one of the snipers shot directly at James' heart!
With deep and soulless eyes like an intimidating abyss, James' tall figure towered like the tallest mountain, and the tide of killing intent receded like a flood!

Just as the bullet was about to hit his heart, the terrible force he unleashed, slow down the pressure of the bullet. Taking this chance, James made use of his trained bullet time perception, which allowed him to slow down time from his side, so he could see the bullet moving in a slow motion. Accurately calculating the time of the hit, he shifted from the spot with his super human reflexes! He wasn't called the God of war for nothing. Protecting the borders, country and fighting for many years, had equipped him with everything he needs. In fact, he had encountered different kinds of guns, and snipers were just peasant to him. Huh?! This stunned the first shooter, eyes widening as he couldn't believe what he just saw! How could a mere person dodge a sniper bullet?! " He can only dodge one bullet at a time. Fire at once!" One of the men, bellowed with a vicious face and instantly shot at James! The rest also fired simultaneously, their bullets flying towards James in a death

Upon hearing the unexpected news, Kyle’s hard expression withered away like the dry leaves in summer time, making his face to drop down drastically. ‘’ What are you saying?! This is not a time for jokes!’’ He yelled at the comrade on the other end of the call, who informed him of the sudden news, a hint of anxiousness dripping in his voice.‘’ Captain Kael! Miss Emily is indeed missing!’’ Thud!As the words sank in, Kael’s heart almost skipped a beat, feeling a numbness spreading through his chest,How can she be missing? Lowering his head, his mind raced to the events earlier. He could still recalled he had handed Emily over to John, one of the soldiers he personally trusted. And this was because John had been with him all these years in battle, through thick and thin. He thought Emily would be protected while they were away. ‘’Where’s John?’’ He demanded immediately, clenching his jaws as he gradually simmered in rage.John was dancing with death! ‘’ John?

Warning: This chapter might contain some violence and abuse.However, Emily defied his order, glaring at him with a strong determination not to yield to him, while wincing silently in pain. This immediately infuriate John, making him to gnash his teeth! He couldn't believe Emily would choose over getting hurt than begging him or giving him her body! " You foolish bitch!" He slammed her against the car door furiously and released his grip from her jaw but hit her face once again, this time more harder!" Haa!" A jolt of sharp pain that electrified Emily's whole body, made her paralysed for some seconds, her eyes gradually becoming red. She couldn't imagine the years of John, holding several arms, and now using his strong hand to hit her! In the moment of pain and discomfort, she felt a crack in her right jaw, coupled with a metallic taste. This crumbled her, wordless with unexplainable pain." Still stubborn?!" John sneered at her. Seeing Emily succumbing to the pain, a sense

" You want me to show you that your daughter is safe?" John repeated, furrowing his brows tightly.." Is that even a reasonable request?!" Emily inhaled sharply, raising her hand to wipe away the blood from her nose. " Anything that involves my daughter is reasonable," retorting, she lowered her eyelids that trembled. A huff echoed from John, but he coincided anyway. " Fine. I will grant you your wish." Then, he took out his phone and scrolled casually. After some seconds, he turned the phone screen towards Emily, which displayed a video, and he tapped on the play button immediately. " See for yourself." Emily lifted her eyes, her face crumbling like a used tissue. In that instant, tears lurked around the corner of her eyes as she watched the video of her daughter, tied to an hospital bed, appearing lifeless and immobile. " My baby," she cried out without control, shaking her head. This shattered her heart into a million pieces. No loving mother would want to see her child

Emily, who was already trembling, with her face turning ashen, was stunned when she didn't feel any movement around her. " Huh?" Shifting a little bit, she lowered her head but was met with a different surprise! " Haahhh!" The sight of John rooted in one single place, with his neck sprouting out blood and deep crimson lines filling his eye balls, terrified her to the core! It felt as if she was under a cold corpse! Without thinking twice, she pushed John from her path, and swiftly got up, her eyes scanning the bush anxiously. John's body jerked with the sudden push and couldn't even lift any of his limbs. He didn't expect his plans to get interrupt. Now, his life force was slowly slipping away. Fear filled Emily's heart as her mind raced uncontrollably, failing to comprehend what just occurred. Wasn't John about to sexually assault her? At this time, a tall straight figure like a towering spear, strode forward, exuding a strong presence capable of pressuring a mountain. "

Emily's eyes contracted fiercely, and slowly, she turned her back, a layer of unsettling emotion roaming across her face. " Sarah." A young girl with dim eyes in an halter neck gown, inclined her head downward.Silently, Sarah tightened her grip on the teddy bear in her hands, her eyes gradually becoming red." Sarah. Please, what you heard is rubbish." Emily skipped forward to hold her daughter, who was standing right beside the door, while trying to clarify things immediately. However, Sarah shuffled a step back from her mother, a muffled sob escaping from her mouth. She knew her grandparents didn't like her from the start, but is this how much they despise her? They don't even want her anymore......" This isn't rubbish!" Steven sneered, his face contorting in contempt. He was seriously getting annoyed at Emily's stubbornness. His businesses were failing, and he needed urgent funds, which couldn't be delayed. Only Wei Zhao was ready to help, but it comes with a cond

After receiving the call, James refused to waste any time and headed straight to the car with his long legs. He needed to get to the described location as possible. Voom! The car roared terribly like a lion king after it prey! Staring at the fading figure of James at a distance inside the secret house, Kyle sighed, his expression inexplicable. He knew this was all his fault.But what made him feel helpless was knowing there was nothing he could do about it. " Your guilt won't take you anywhere." Jessica walked behind and offered a polite smile. " I think you should fight along side with him." Kyle glanced at Jessica, his expression moving between surprise and confusion, as if struggling to say something. .Jessica could perfectly comprehend Kyle's turmoil. So, she said nicely, " I can take care of James and Emily. Don't forget I am not only a medical expert but a martial art experts also." Yes, she was not just a renowned doctor, who had worked in the military for years but

Sounds of hurried footsteps dominated the hospital reception as a man bustled in a frenzy manner, exhaling heavily. " Mr. Zhao! They have located this place!" One of the henchmen, who was rushing forward, halted right in front of Victor. Victor was still with Zhao, and they were about to conclude their discussion when the henchman arrived unexpectedly. Wearing a quick frown, Zhao snapped irritatedly, " What are you saying?! Who the hell are you?! Get lost!" He didn't hesitate to scold the henchman as he disliked being interrupted. However, Victor was much more sensible. He raised his brows and glanced at the henchman.." Who located this place?" In a collected way, he questioned him. The henchman tried to steady himself, reducing his heavy breathing, and he parted his quivering lips. " The rumored god of war......" Hearing this, both Victor and Zhao's expressions changed instantly! ...Forest" Yes! General, I can finally see the hidden hospital!" President Richard shoute

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.

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

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

Across multiple regions, its remaining leaders turned on one another, vying for dominance in the wake of Zhao’s capture.Meetings that were once coordinated with ruthless precision devolved into shouting matches and power struggles.Andre Velasquez, a charismatic but ruthless underboss from South America, sat at the head of one such gathering, his piercing gaze silencing the room.“Enough!” Andre barked, his voice commanding. “While you bicker like children, the Syndicate crumbles. Zhao’s arrest is a temporary setback—but only if we act decisively.”One of the other leaders, a grizzled man named Viktor, sneered. “And what’s your plan, Velasquez? To throw more bodies at Radcliffe and hope he doesn’t kill them all?”Andre smirked. “Not hope—strategy. Radcliffe isn’t invincible. His allies are his weakness. We crush them, and he’ll crumble under the weight of his own failures.”Another leader, a sharp-eyed woman named Leona, folded her arms. “You’re suggesting an all-out assault? That’ll

Zhao sat calmly in his reinforced chair, his wrists bound with steel restraints. His suit was wrinkled and stained from the days he’d spent in custody, but his eyes burned with defiance as he looked at James across the table.James stood with his arms crossed, his expression unreadable. “You’ve lost, Zhao. The Syndicate is crumbling. The world knows who you are, what you’ve done. It’s over.”Zhao smirked, leaning back against his chair as far as the restraints allowed. “Lost? You think locking me in a cage erases what I’ve built? My influence reaches far beyond these walls, Radcliffe. You’ve won a battle, not the war.”James’s eyes narrowed. “Then tell me about your loyalists. Who’s left? Where are they hiding?”Zhao laughed, the sound cold and sharp. “You really think I’d hand over my people? Even now, they’re working to rebuild. My Syndicate doesn’t die because you say it does.”In the adjacent room, Winter sat at a console, scanning through files pulled from Zhao’s private vault. T
CHAPTER 232
The company, once under constant threat from Zhao’s Syndicate, now thrived in the wake of their victory. Emily stood at the window, watching her employees work with a renewed sense of purpose.“Reports from the third quarter are in,” her assistant said, handing her a folder. “Profits are up 40%, and the expansion projects are ahead of schedule.”Emily smiled, flipping through the report. “It’s amazing what people can achieve when they’re not looking over their shoulders every day.”Her assistant hesitated before speaking. “And... the gala next week? It’s being framed as a celebration of your leadership during the crisis.”Emily shook her head, her smile fading slightly. “This wasn’t just my victory. It belongs to everyone who stood with me—my team, my family.”From behind her, a familiar voice chimed in. “And you better not forget us little people.”Emily turned to see Kael standing in the doorway, his signature grin in place.“Kael,” Emily said warmly. “What brings you here?
