CHAPTER 1109
King’s red eyes narrowed, a dark, bitter shadow falling over his face."I claimed every seat at the high table... except one," King continued. "Adrian. The Dragon Heir. The most powerful of us all. He was the one who, along with his sister Clara, brought my empire down and put me behind bars fifteen years ago."Nathaniel sneered slightly. "We all know Adrian left this dimension. And Clara isn't an Heir. She's just a mortal woman.""That is where you are wrong, boy," King purred, his red eyes burning brightly. "It should be physically impossible for a non-Heir to wield cosmic invulnerability. For fifteen years inside my cell, I pondered how Clara possessed such god-like defense. It was Dorian who found the way. I saw it clearly during our final battle fifteen years ago... her necklace. Adrian’s blood and energy were infused into that ancient pendant, directly bonding with her skin and powering her veins."King turned the glowing vial in his fingers."If Adrian could infuse his power in
CHAPTER 1108
The two surviving Crimson Gang operatives staggered through the heavy iron doors of the subterranean industrial bunker, their breathing ragged, their faces pale with shock. They carried a single lead-lined lockbox between them, their boots dragging across the wet concrete floor.Nathaniel was pacing near the central tactical table, his black leather trench coat swinging with every furious stride. The moment the doors opened, his head snapped around, his eyes locking onto the two battered survivors."Where are the rest of you?!" Nathaniel barked, his voice echoing sharply off the damp walls. "Where is the shipment?!"The lead operative dropped his end of the heavy lockbox onto the table with a dull, metallic CLANG. He fell onto a wooden crate, clutching his side, his hands shaking violently."We... we were ambushed, sir..." the operative stammered, sweat and sea spray dripping from his forehead. "The federal task force... they were waiting inside the warehouse. And... and she was with
CHAPTER 1107
The young archer gasped for air, his eyes wild with a mixture of zealotry and unadulterated terror. "You're... you're too late, Red Wrath! Nathaniel already has the primary crates! You can't save this city!"Clara looked down at the ground near her feet. Lying on the steel grating was one remaining, unspent Ash-Arrow that had fallen from the archer's quiver.She picked up the dark arrow, holding the obsidian tip two inches from the archer's nose.The archer’s pale face turned ghostly white. The cocky, arrogant zealotry vanished from his eyes in an instant, replaced by a pure, weeping terror. "No... no... please... don't... please!""You came here to turn innocent men into dust," Clara said, her voice dropping into an icy, unyielding register. "You brought this fire into my city."Clara didn't stab his chest. She smoothly flipped the arrow, driving the obsidian tip straight into the archer's heavy tactical boot, pinning his foot to the iron walkway!THWACK!The dark alchemy exploded in
CHAPTER 1106
Clara launched herself straight into the central aisle, stepping directly into the open kill zone between the falling arrows and the terrified federal soldiers!CLANG! CLANG! THWACK!Three dark arrows struck Clara squarely in the chest, shoulder, and throat!The terrifying, crackling crimson alchemy flared violently upon impact, attempting to trigger its cellular breakdown—but the moment the dark magic touched the golden, invisible barrier of Adrian's ancient pendant, the alchemy shattered into harmless, dull sparks! The heavy obsidian arrowheads flattened against her invulnerable skin, dropping to the concrete floor like broken plastic toys!Clara stood in the center of the rain of ash, her posture unyielding, her dark coat blowing in the draft, her body acting as an immovable, iron wall."Clara!" Dorian yelled from behind a forklift, firing three sharp pistol rounds up toward the rafters to suppress the snipers. "They're trying to pin us down while their ground team exits the back!"
CHAPTER 1105
Clara looked up toward the high steel rafters, her dark eyes narrowing as a cold, terrifying realization settled into her chest.They weren't early. They were late.Silas Vance had already handed over the crates to Nathaniel's men. And instead of packing the weapons onto a truck and driving away, the Crimson Gang had set an absolute, inescapable trap.TWANG-TWANG-TWANG!High above them, in the dark rafters forty feet in the air, the unmistakable, metallic snap of high-tension compound bowstrings shattered the quiet warehouse air!"COVER!" Clara roared, her raspy voice booming like thunder! "GET BEHIND COVER NOW!"Three dark, obsidian-tipped arrows streaked down through the dusty air, moving with a terrifying, unnatural velocity that far outpaced standard rifle rounds. They trailed faint wisps of dark, crackling crimson smoke—the volatile, ancient alchemy laced into their steel heads.One of Phyna’s veteran front-line task force officers, a young corporal standing near the central aisl
CHAPTER 1104
Clara took a slow, heavy breath, leaning in closer."You don't want to play with this, Phyna," Clara warned softly. "Like the President said... we have to set aside our differences and work together right now to save the lives of the innocent citizens and soldiers they are about to destroy."Silence hung heavy over the executive office. The tick of the wall clock echoed rhythmically against the steel walls.Phyna looked from Clara's stone-cold face to Thomas and Dorian, who were both sitting in absolute, serious silence now. She realized with chilling clarity that Clara was not exaggerating. This was not a game or a tactical bluff. It was a clear and present threat of absolute annihilation.Phyna let out a long, shuddering breath, rubbing her temples with her gloved fingers. She reached for her terminal, pulling up the satellite imagery of the old naval docks."Fine..." Phyna agreed, her voice tight and focused. "Fine. If these weapons are as dangerous as you say... we cannot allow th
