Chapter: CHAPTER 170The room erupted into loud laughter. "This guy is an absolute clown!" a guest shouted.Lance stood perfectly still, letting the laughter die down. Then, he spoke smoothly. "It is the electronic key to a finished estate property in the Apex Sector."The entire room froze. The laughter cut off so fast it felt like the air had been sucked out of the grand hall. You could have heard a pin drop on the marble floor after he mentioned Apex Sector.Elena’s eyes widened, her hands flying to her mouth. "Wait... you mean the Apex Sector? The most secure, elite zone in the entire country? The place where Selene, the President of Apex Corp, actually lives?"Lance nodded slowly. "Yes. And that is my gift to the family."The wealthy guests looked at him in absolute awe. The whispers started again, but this time, the tone was entirely different."How is that even possible?" one of the billionaires murmured, his champagne glass trembling."Civilians are not even allowed within one hundred meters of th

Chapter: CHAPTER 169"Mom!" Isabelle stood her ground. "You invited your family. This is my husband, and this is your grandson.""Grandchild my foot!" Georgia hissed. "I don’t have a grandson with that man's blood. You should have left them in whatever hole they crawled out of.""Sister, please," Elena added, crossing her arms. "Everyone is staring. You’re making us a laughingstock."Lance’s face darkened. "I told you this was a mistake," he whispered to Isabelle.Georgia looked at Lance with pure disdain. "And I see you came empty-handed as usual. Not even a flower for the woman whose daughter you're leaching off of?"Suddenly, the roar of a high-performance engine cut through the chatter. A limited-edition silver sports car rolled to a stop at the entrance. Darren Grayson, the billionaire heir to the Grayson fortune, stepped out. The crowd turned, he was the man Georgia had always wanted for Isabelle.Darren walked up with a smug grin, a line of servants following him with wrapped boxes. He hugged Georg

Chapter: CHAPTER 168Outside, the cool night air hit Lance’s face. He stood by the side of his black van, leaning against the metal as he watched the distant lab.The laboratory exploded, and the flames rose to the sky.The heat from the explosion was still radiating against Lance’s skin when Selene approached him."General," she said softly, "we finished the sweep. James is dead. Unfortunately, we could not bring him in alive as you requested."Lance watched the flames. "It doesn’t matter," he replied, his voice a hollow echo. "He was going to die today regardless."Lance climbed into his black van and drove back to the city. He drove straight to a secluded wing of the military base where he had built a private altar. Inside, the air was cool and smelled of incense. He closed the heavy doors.Selene and the elite guards stood outside.Inside, Lance rekindled a single white candle. He knelt before the framed photographs of a beautiful woman and two young, laughing girls. Tears finally came down his cheeks

Chapter: CHAPTER 167Each punch carried enough force to shatter brick, but to Lance, it was like being hit by a gentle breeze. He stood there, unmoving, watching James exhaust himself.Lance reached out and seized James by the throat, lifting the Warlord into the air until his boots dangled feet above the floor. "Your days are over. I am tempted to kill you now, but I want you to die slowly. I want you to feel every second of the pain you’ve caused."With a flick of his wrist, Lance flung James across the room. The Warlord crashed into a row of glass consoles."SIR!"The laboratory doors burst open. Selene arrived at the head of a battalion of Elite Guards, their rifles raised. She stopped, her eyes darting from the ruined laboratory to the broken man on the floor."Burn everything," Lance barked, not looking back. "Leave nothing left. And bring James back to the base in chains. He is a traitor. He is the one who led the massacre that night.""James?" Selene whispered, her face pale with shock. "The Warlo

Chapter: CHAPTER 166"It’s you," James whispered. "Well, the upgrade you. With this technology, humans don't even need to go to war. I was working on bringing you back as the perfect soldier. If you had stayed alive, you wouldn't have let the project finish. But once this is done, this machine will think like you, fight like you, and learn an opponent's every move in seconds. We won't need to send fathers and sons to die in trenches anymore."James turned to him, pleading now. "I killed you for the greater good. I respect you more than anyone, Lance, but you were weak. You were a brake on the wheel of progress. Now you have a second chance at life. Work with me. We will be unstoppable.""EResult" Lance’s fist tightened. "You’ve killed thousands of innocents for this. You spent billions on a project I forbade. Is this pile of scrap worth the life of my wife? My daughter? My father? You wiped them out for a ghost in a tank?""I was going to give you back your life!" James shouted. "That should count for som

Chapter: CHAPTER 165"So, you recognize me," Lance's voice vibrated.The Warlord threw his head back and laughed. "Lance, even if you switched bodies a hundred times, I could spot you in any crowd. When you 'died' that night, a blinding light erupted, the same light appeared the day you returned, the military waved it off as an accidental explosion, but I somehow knew."Lance’s knuckles turned white. As James spoke, the foggy memories of that horrific night finally came together.That night, it was James who killed him."It wasn't long before I found you again," James continued, swirling the wine in his glass. "That underground fight club you destroyed? You ordered Selene to scrub your identity, to keep you a ghost. But I’ve been watching. I knew it was only a matter of time before you showed up at my doorstep."Lance took a step forward, the floor cracking beneath his boot. "Warlord James. You were the one behind it all. The ambush, the fire, the blood... it was you.""Chill out, Lance," James said, gest

Chapter: CHAPTER 774The loud, piercing alarm went off wildly, echoing through every hallway, room, and courtyard of the underground base. Red warning lights began to flash violently. The automated security system immediately initiated a total lockdown, sealing the heavy iron blast doors to trap whoever was inside. But they were far too late. Clara was already long gone, slipping out into the cool night air before the gates could slam shut.Early the next morning, back at the main police station, the atmosphere was tense and quiet. Henry walked down the long hallway, his uniform neat but his face pale from lack of sleep. He stopped in front of the commander’s office, took a deep breath, and knocked on the glass door."Come in," a loud voice barked.Henry walked inside, closing the door softly behind him. "Sir, you called for me?"Sitting behind a grand, cluttered wooden desk was Commander Desmond. The large man didn't look up immediately. He was carefully reading through a thick stack of papers. Final

Chapter: CHAPTER 773Clara stepped completely into the dark room, the beam of her flashlight trembling in her hand as it illuminated the horrific sight."Oh, my god..." Clara whispered, a cold wave of horror washing over her. She had seen a lot of violence in the underworld, but the pure cruelty before her eyes was entirely staggering. The man was in so much agonizing pain that his muscles were twitching uncontrollably as he hung helplessly from the heavy ropes.Hearing the door open, the racing leader slowly, painfully lifted his head. His eyes were bloodshot and completely wild with agony. He recognized Clara through his blurred vision, his voice nothing more than a ragged, breathless whisper."My sister... my twin sister..." he managed to gasp out, his chest heaving.Clara rushed forward, dropping to her knees right beside him to check his pulse. "Where is she?" Clara asked urgently, her voice low and frantic. "Tell me where she is hiding.""She is hiding... at the abandoned cathedral... at the very

Chapter: CHAPTER 772He sat back down directly opposite the weeping man. The leader was sweating profusely now, shaking from head to toe. Butcher picked up the scraping blade once again. With another swift, brutal motion, he scraped the skin completely off the man's other thigh, exposing the raw red flesh. He took another large handful of salt, and this time, he rubbed it even harder, grinding the sharp crystals deep into the open wound."NO! STOP! AAAAHHHHH!" The man screamed at the top of his lungs, his voice cracking under the intense torture.Meanwhile, just a floor downstairs in the main courtyard, the rest of the Syndicate men were carrying out their regular, violent combat training.Tonight, it was a brutal fight to the death between two low-level recruits. Dozens of shadow soldiers were standing around the ring, shouting, cheering, and having fun as the two men mauled each other with fists and blades. The noise of the roaring crowd completely drowned out the screams coming from the upper basemen

Chapter: CHAPTER 771"You do not need to worry about that," Clara said smoothly. "I will take care of my mom. She does not need to know about the immunity deal for now. Just follow our agreement, get the paperwork ready, and let me handle the rest."Henry rubbed the back of his neck. "Alright, okay," he muttered reluctantly. "I will try to talk to my boss, Commander Desmond. I hope to God he agrees to it."Deep down in the dark, suffocating basement of the Syndicate base, a horrific scene was unfolding.The captured racing leader was stripped of his dignity, tied securely with heavy ropes to a cold metal chair in the center of a windowless room. Standing directly over him was Butcher. The massive, tattooed Lieutenant looked completely calm."Tell me," Butcher whispered, leaning close to the man's ear. "Where is your twin sister hiding?"The man groaned, his body already bruised from the beating earlier."We can make this process as easy as you want," Butcher continued, a slow, sickening grin spreading ac

Chapter: CHAPTER 770Henry stood perfectly still, his eyes locked on her with a mixture of frustration and worry. "What happened? Why all of a sudden do you want to see me?" "I haven't heard a single word from you in months, and suddenly you just pop up out of nowhere?" Clara's face hardened as she saw how dead serious he was. The playful look vanished from her eyes, replaced by the reality she had been living. "I have found a way to take down the King," Clara said, her voice dropping to a sharp whisper. Henry blinked, stunned by the massive statement. "What?" "I found a man locked in the Syndicate base," Clara explained quickly, looking over her shoulder to make sure the rooftop was secure. "His twin sister is a top assassin for the King. She accidentally saw the King's real face, and now she is on the run." "The King is hunting her down to bury the secret. All we have to do is locate her before they do, and we can unmask him." Henry stared at her. "And you trust this guy? You're risking everythin

Chapter: CHAPTER 769Clara stood there, completely frozen by his words. She knew he was right about the danger, but the alternative of being a slave to the Syndicate forever was unbearable. Without another word, she grabbed the dead guard by his heavy tactical boots. With a strained breath, she dragged the heavy body down the concrete floor toward the back of the facility, where the massive, roaring furnaces incinerated the syndicate's evidence. She threw the corpse into the flames, watching the fire consume the remains until nothing was left but old ash.Later that night, the lights of a crowded downtown bar buzzed loudly. Henry sat at a small wooden table, looking around the noisy room with discomfort.He adjusted his collar, leaning over the table toward Ashley, who sat across from him in civilian clothes."I swear, half of these people in here are not even up to eighteen years old," Henry muttered, his cop instincts refusing to turn off.Ashley let out a soft laugh, reaching across the table to gentl

Chapter: CHAPTER 305Nathan’s consciousness began to return as a sharp intake of breath filled his lungs. His chest rose violently, his body convulsing like he’d been struck by lightning. Then came the surge which felt like electricity, the force that seemed to awaken every cell in him. Power unlike anything he had ever felt began to course through his veins. It wasn’t just adrenaline; it was something supernatural. Nathan’s fingers twitched, curling into the dirt beneath him. Despite his wounds he felt zero pain. The darkened sky rumbled, thunder cracked, and the atmosphere was heavy as if the heavens themselves were about to witness what was about to happen. Nathan opened his eyes. They gleamed with an intensity they hadn’t held beforebefore, he staggered to his feet, and his fingers curled into a fist. The branch he had clung to was now in pieces beneath him, Nathanglanced upward, and his jaws tightened. Sebastian!!! Nathan didn’t need to think. He planted his foot against the rock wa

Historic shoulders were seriously bleeding and he did not know how much longer he could hold on. His body trembled under the weight of exhaustion and pain, but in his mind he refused to surrender. Not like this. Not today. The branch creaked remindinf him that time was running out. Nathan closed his eyes and he gritted his teeth as he tired to summon the strength to pull himself up. He could hear Sebastian’s cruel laughter above as he mocked him. The so called Almighty Lord Cloud was finally taken down by his own half brother. "Tell your son that his father was a coward..." Nathan’s eyes burned red with determination but his body was too weak. The branch snapped with a sudden, deafening crack, and Nathan fell once again into the abyss.

Sebastian, however, remained unmoved, he stood over Nathan with a grin on his bloodied face. "You really do not know when to quit, do you?" Sebastian taunted him. Nathan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand. "I will never quit," he said in a hoarse voice. "Not until I’ve destroyed you." Sebastian chuckled darkly, he was amused by Nathan's arrogance. "Destroy me?" he repeated mockinghim. "You can’t even stand properly, Lord Cloud."
