Alexander heard the voice and snatched the phone angrily. "Willy, something in your container attacked us. Are you trying to kill me?"He knew Willy was a fool, but the container was Willy's after all. He was the only lead they had."What?!" Willy was terrified. Even if he had 10 times the courage,
Alexander felt a headache coming on when he heard this, but he continued to ask, "Then, among your enemies, who wants to kill you?"Willy answered without hesitation, "Everyone could be a possibility."Power struggles were wild throughout history. Even one's own relatives might take action.Well, th

Wells' manor, nestled halfway up a mountain and far from the city, offered the illusion of seclusion. However, the spies lurking in the surrounding jungle were painfully obvious. Without the cover of a crowd, their presence was as conspicuous as targets on a firing range."Take them out," ordered Al
Heret staggered back more than three meters, crashing into and scraping against a dozen cars before finally coming to a stop. The force of Alexander's strike had been overwhelming."Alas, defeated again!" Heret sighed dejectedly. He realized that his overconfidence had been his downfall. He had char
"Aahh!"As Alexander pondered how to approach and question them, a blood-curdling scream echoed from nearby, followed by panicked shouts."Run! It's loose again!""Someone messed up the anesthetic dose—this could be fatal!""No, stop!"The stench of blood filled the air, especially potent in the nea

"Kill!" As Alexander stepped onto the Empyrean Slope, a monstrous wave of killing intent crashed into his mind."Hmph, you think you're the only one fierce?" he muttered coldly, unleashing his own killing intent to counter the assault.He was the Temple Lord Kane, a man who had tread through mountai
At Battleforge Summit, a place where peril lurked at every turn.As the group continued their ascent, they lost a few more members. The ancient battlefield was riddled with deadly traps and poisonous remnants. The pools along the way harbored creatures so aggressive, it was clear they were not of mo
"Ah…" Alexander yawned, waiting patiently. Without a proper map, he would probably take half a day searching for directions. Battleforge Summit, though seemingly small, had a complex terrain.Time was slipping away, and Maxwell and Crimson Wyrm Master finally reached an agreement. The two-meter-wide
Early in the next morning, Maxwell's group of 40—the weakest among them a Lord of War—gathered quietly by the lake at the back of a mountain, somewhere in Shielded Valley. They stood in silence, their expressions grave.Though many had never ventured to Battleforge Summit, they had all heard of its
"Enemy attack!"Brenda sprang to her feet, drawing her sharp blade. Tensions had been high lately, and everyone's nerves were on edge."Perfect timing! I've been waiting to kill him sooner or later!"Alexander's killing intent surged, and his battle spirit ignited.Crimson Wyrm Master was destined t
As soon as Alexander asked the question, a heavy silence fell over the chamber. The three Guardians exchanged uneasy glances, but no one uttered a word."Never mind if you don't want to say anything, I'm just curious," said Alexander, sitting down cross-legged and closing his eyes to heal his wounds

"You fool! Don't think you'll be the last one laughing!"The Second and Third Guardians charged forward, joining forces to deflect Crimson Wyrm's relentless assault. Even with their combined strength, they could barely withstand a few moves."Do you really think we're without reinforcements?" roared
"Heh. I wouldn't dare accept your gift!" Maxwell scoffed, his voice steady despite the looming battle. Politeness had no place in this confrontation."Oh, but I'm sure you'll appreciate it," sneered Crimson Wyrm Master, his eyes gleaming with malice as he pointed at Darko, who lay crumpled on the gr
