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
GOD OF WAR BRINGS JUSTICE Chapter 16: Location
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 drive back to the Radcliffe estate was quiet.The weight of recent events lingered in the air, but for the first time in months, there was a sense of closure.James glanced at Emily in the passenger seat, her head resting against the window as she watched the trees blur past.In the backseat, Sarah was fast asleep, her small face finally free of worry.“This feels strange,” Emily said softly, breaking the silence.James glanced at her. “What does?”“Coming home. No Syndicate. No immediate danger. Just... life waiting for us.”James nodded, his grip on the wheel tightening slightly.“It’s what we’ve been fighting for.”Emily turned to him, a small smile on her lips.“I just hope we remember how to live it.”Later that evening, the team gathered at the estate’s main hall for what felt like the first peaceful meal in years.The atmosphere was warm, but there was an underlying current of finality.Kael raised his glass, smirking.“So, this is it, huh? No more bunkers, no more ambushes

Winter’s fingers flew over her keyboard, her screen filled with data streams and encrypted files.The room was dimly lit, the glow of monitors casting sharp shadows on her focused expression.James stood behind her, his arms crossed, tension radiating from him.“You’re sure about this?” James asked, his voice low but firm.Winter nodded, not taking her eyes off the screen.“Positive. These files weren’t just buried—they were hidden in layers of false leads. Whoever did this wanted to make sure no one found them, not even Zhao.”Kael leaned against the doorway, arms crossed.“And yet, here we are. What exactly are we looking at?”Winter tapped a key, bringing up a series of interconnected names, companies, and shell organizations.“The Syndicate isn’t just regrouping—they’re rebranding. New names, new players, same game.”James’s jaw tightened. “Led by who?”“That’s the kicker,” Winter said, spinning her chair to face them.“These files mention leadership figures Zhao didn’t even know

The black SUV pulled into the secluded driveway of the secure facility, surrounded by towering walls and layers of surveillance.James stepped out first, scanning the area with a soldier’s precision.Behind him, Emily and Sarah emerged, their expressions a mix of weariness and unease.“This isn’t a home,” Emily said quietly, her arms crossed as she glanced at the cold, gray building.James turned to her, his voice calm but firm.“It’s not supposed to be. It’s safe.”Emily sighed, the weight of the past few days evident in her posture.“Safe, James, but not sustainable. We can’t keep uprooting our lives like this.”James met her gaze.“It’s temporary. Just until we figure out our next move.”Inside, the facility was stark but functional. Sarah clung to Emily’s hand, her eyes darting around the unfamiliar surroundings.“Is this where we’re going to live now?” Sarah asked softly, her voice tinged with worry.Emily knelt to her daughter’s level, brushing a strand of hair from her face.“J

The strike team moved with precision, navigating the dense jungle that surrounded the suspected Shadow Council hideout.Winter’s voice came through the comms, calm but focused.“You’re two clicks out,” she said.“The perimeter scans show minimal activity. If they’re there, they’re keeping a low profile.”James adjusted his headset, his eyes scanning the terrain.“Understood. Stay on the sensors. If anything moves, I want to know.”Kael, walking just behind him, let out a low whistle.“Too quiet. I don’t like it.”James nodded.“Neither do I.”The team reached the entrance to the bunker, its steel doors partially concealed by overgrown vines.Kael moved forward, placing a charge on the lock.“Ready to breach,” he said.James gave a quick nod.“Do it.”The explosion was sharp and contained, the doors swinging open to reveal a dimly lit corridor. The team entered cautiously, their weapons raised.Winter’s voice came through again.“You’re in. Be careful—this layout is identical to some o

Winter’s workstation hummed with activity as lines of code scrolled across her screen.She leaned forward, her brow furrowed in concentration.On a nearby table lay the charred piece of paper Kael had recovered from The Widow’s lair.It was encoded, a complex cipher that had taken days to crack.Kael leaned against the wall, watching her work.“You’ve been at this for hours, Winter. Got anything?”Winter sighed, her fingers pausing over the keyboard.“Almost. Whoever wrote this wanted to make sure it stayed hidden. But they underestimated me.”James entered the room, his expression sharp.“What’s the status?”Winter pointed to the screen.“I’ve almost got it. The code is... odd. It’s deliberate, but there’s something about it that feels personal, like whoever wrote it wanted us to find it.”Kael raised an eyebrow.“Personal? From the Syndicate? Doesn’t exactly sound like their style.”Winter’s screen dinged softly, and she sat back, a faint smile of triumph crossing her face.“Got it.
CHAPTER 251
The boardroom was uncomfortably quiet as Emily entered, her heels clicking against the polished floor.The tension in the air was palpable, the kind of silence that only came before a storm.She set her tablet down on the conference table and looked around at the gathered board members.Many avoided her gaze, their expressions carefully neutral.Others met her eyes with a mix of defiance and unease.“Thank you all for coming,” Emily began, her tone sharp but calm.“I’m aware there have been... concerns about the direction of this company in the wake of recent events.”A man at the far end of the table, Greg Thornton, cleared his throat. He was one of the company’s longest-serving board members and had always been vocal about his disapproval of Emily’s leadership.“Concerns is putting it mildly, Mrs. Radcliffe. Some of us are wondering if your methods are jeopardizing this company’s future.”Emily raised an eyebrow.“Jeopardizing? Or exposing inconvenient truths?”The room shifted unea

The interrogation room was colder than usual, or perhaps it just felt that way.Zhao sat at the table, handcuffed, his posture relaxed despite the weight of his situation.His smirk was firmly in place, as if he were the one holding all the cards.James entered, his footsteps deliberate and echoing in the silence.He placed a folder on the table, its contents thick with evidence of Zhao’s crimes.Without sitting, he leaned on the table, his eyes locked on Zhao.“This is your last chance,” James said, his tone sharp.“Who’s still out there? Who’s pulling the strings now that you’re finished?”Zhao chuckled softly, shaking his head.“Finished? My dear Radcliffe, you give yourself too much credit. You’ve barely scratched the surface.”James’s jaw tightened, but his voice remained steady.“You’re alone. The Syndicate is in ruins. You have nothing left.”Zhao leaned forward slightly, his smirk widening.“Nothing left? Oh, James. You’ve only pruned the tree, not uprooted it. The roots are s
CHAPTER 249
The headquarters was quieter than usual, but the weight of what they’d accomplished hung heavy in the air.James stood in the main briefing room, surrounded by his team, while Winter sat at her station, typing furiously.Screens around her displayed reams of data—records, account numbers, and connections all tied to the Syndicate.Kael leaned against the wall, arms crossed.“That’s it, then? We’re done?”Winter didn’t look up from her screen.“Not yet. The Widow’s fall gave us access to a treasure trove of intel, but there’s a lot to sort through. Sleeper agents, hidden funds, collaborators—we need to root out every last one.”James nodded, his expression grim.“Every loose end tied up. No one slips through.”Kael raised an eyebrow.“You think that’s even possible? The Syndicate had its claws in everything.”James’s voice was steady. “We don’t stop until it’s done.”In another part of the building, Emily stood in front of a mirror, adjusting her blazer.She was minutes away from addre
