In a battlefield beyond the realms.
Within a certain valley.
The ground was littered with bones, spanning fifteen kilometers!
Among these bones were human and animal remains, densely scattered like a vast expanse of white snow, stretching as far as the eye could see.
Many poisonous snakes slithered between the white bones, while vultures circled in the sky, emitting eerie cries.
Within the valley, an inexplicable miasma permeated the air.
This place was a hell on earth, the stronghold of the assassin organization known as the Hand of God.
At the end of the bone-strewn path, inside a cave in the valley, an angry roar resounded:
"Who is it? Who killed the Azure Dragon Demon Lord and ruined my plans?"
Accompanied by this furious roar, a mighty killing intent spread, sweeping over a distance of more than ten kilometers.
Within that range, the snakes were shattered into a mist of blood, and the vultures were crushed, falling from the sky.
At a distance of ten kilometers, countless poisonous snakes swiftly crawled away, while vultures and birds flew frantically, fleeing from this place.
It had turned into a land of deathly silence.
Inside the cave within the valley, a man shrouded in a black robe exuded a majestic presence, like a demon emerging from hell. He exuded a terrifying killing intent.
He wore a mask of a weeping god, revealing only a pair of cold and ruthless eyes as he spoke to a large screen, "Issue my command, mobilize all the resources of the Hand of God to investigate."
"I want to know who killed the Azure Dragon Demon Lord and took away my treasure!"
"Find him and tear him apart!"
"And at all costs, infiltrate the Dragon Kingdom. We must retrieve that treasure!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHis voice was colder than ice and sharper than a blade.
"Understood!"
A mechanical voice emanated from the screen.
Dragon Kingdom, Canton, Lafayette's office.
Bang!
A young man dressed in traditional Chinese clothing, a beautiful woman carrying a bow and arrow, and a young man wielding a long knife arrived. They placed a bag of money in front of Lafayette, glaring at him with anger.
In the face of their hostility, Lafayette continued to wear a smile on his face, as if he were Maitreya Buddha. He chuckled and said, "Thank you three for lending a hand. Otherwise, if the treasure inside here had been stolen, I would be in great trouble."
After speaking, he reached out to take the bag of money.
Clang!
A precious blade, swift as lightning, struck between Lafayette's hand and the bag of money.
A young man dressed in traditional Chinese clothing sat in front of Lafayette, his eyes deep and wise, staring at Lafayette and said, "Lafayette, we need to have a serious talk."
Lafayette's smile slightly stiffened upon hearing this. "Commander Tang, I don't understand what you are talking about."
"Acting foolishly won't work in front of me."
The young man in Chinese clothing sneered and pointed to the contents of the money bag. "Let's talk about it. Where did that item in the money bag come from?"
When he returned to Canton, he opened the money bag and inspected the contents. After confirming that the uranium-235 was intact, he felt relieved. But before he could fully relax, another item in the money bag turned his face pale, and his heart raced.
This item was even more dangerous than uranium-235!
"Uranium-235 is my private product. Your superiors should know about it. Many years ago, when the country was in dire need of this material, I handed it over. I should be considered a hero deserving of rewards," Lafayette chuckled.
The young man in Chinese clothing's eyes turned cold.
The young man wielding a long knife stood up abruptly, his voice cold, "Lafayette, we're not talking about uranium-235, but the other item in the bag!"
"Why didn't you turn it in to our War Department when you possessed it?"
"Do you know how dangerous it is?"
Lafayette laughed even more joyfully, his eyes squinting until they were barely visible. He chuckled, "Gentlemen, this is my treasure. Why should I turn it in to your War Department? Am I breaking the law?"
"What did you say?"
The young man with the long knife seethed with anger. Upon hearing Lafayette's words, his fury intensified, his eyes becoming sharper, radiating killing intent.
He emitted a sharp killing intent, pressing towards Lafayette.
Unmoved, Lafayette continued to wear his smile and said, "Let me ask again, which law states that private treasures must be turned in to the War Department?"
"This's not a matter of law but the fact that once this item is exposed, it will bring great disaster to the Dragon Kingdom. We must help you safeguard it," the beautiful woman carrying the bow and arrow uttered in a deep voice.
Lafayette smiled and looked at the young man in Chinese clothing. "I believe you've misunderstood, especially Mr. Tang Zelong."
"You know me so well, then you should know that every item I keep has been specially approved by your Dragon Team's leader."
"If the three of you have any objections, you can go back and consult with your leader."
"Rather than coming to me."
After speaking, he took out several documents and handed them to Tang Zelong, the young man in Chinese clothing.
Tang Zelong didn't bother looking at the documents at all. His gaze remained fixed on Lafayette, his eyes deep and sharp, as if trying to see through Lafayette.
Unfortunately, Lafayette wore a constant smile, amiable and affable, appearing flawless and serene like a benevolent deity.
The young man with the long knife and the attractive woman with the bow and arrow quickly glanced at the documents and fell silent.
Indeed, those documents had been specially approved by their team leader.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn other words, Lafayette's possession of those items was legal, and he had no obligation to turn them over to their War Department.
"Commander Tang, I believe your team leader's command to you was to help me retrieve the lost item, not to interrogate me, am I right?" Lafayette chuckled while looking at Tang Zelong.
"Lafayette, do not get too arrogant, I..." the young man with the long knife spoke coldly.
Lafayette stared intensely at the young man with the long knife, still maintaining his smile, but his eyes turned cold. He spoke with a false smile, "Mr. Bai Yang, are you threatening me?"
Under Lafayette's intense gaze, the young man with the long knife felt as if he were being stared down by an ancient beast, freezing to the core, overcome with a chilling sensation.
Goosebumps rose on his skin, causing an unbearable stinging pain.
This was killing intent!
A killing intent even stronger and more terrifying than his own!
For a moment, he could not utter the words he intended to say.
Lafayette's killing intent lasted only for a second before quickly reverting to his amiable and affable smile, as if nothing had happened. He said, "I appreciate your kind assistance in recovering the lost item."
"To show my gratitude, I have instructed my chefs to prepare a sumptuous feast. I invite the three of you to join me."
Only then did Bai Yang feel the pressure alleviate, and he broke out in a cold sweat.
At this moment, his gaze towards Lafayette had changed completely.
Tang Zelong stood up and said, "No need, we have already eaten."
"We have delivered the item to you, completed the mission, and now we take our leave. Goodbye!"
With that, he left directly.
Bai Yang, the young man with the long knife, grabbed his precious blade from the table, gave Lafayette a cold stare, and followed suit.
The woman with the bow and arrow wasted no time and hurried after them.
After leaving Lafayette's residence, the woman with the bow and arrow wore a displeased expression and said, "We were used by that old man again. I do not understand why our team leader always sends us to help him with his missions."
Bai Yang wiped the sweat off his forehead and gritted his teeth, "Captain Tang, who is this old man really?"
Tang Zelong lit a cigarette, took a puff, then turned around, giving a deep look at Lafayette's mansion. He spoke deliberately, one word at a time, "His true identity is even more terrifying than you can imagine!"
