Flame, Alpha and Keanu stood up straight and replied loudly. Dick’s icy cold gaze swept past their faces as he said, “Do you feel humiliated?”“Yes, sir!” shouted the three of them in unison. “Do you feel determined to seek revenge?”“Yes, sir!”“Very well. Follow me to Squad 4. I’d like to check out what kind of superpowers this newly-joined instructor has such that he has the gall to bully my subordinates!” said Dick dangerously. His tone was filled with overbearingness and anger. Keanu and the others were immediately roused. They nodded strenuously then followed Dick toward the direction of Squad 4 with long strides. Towering close to the height of two meters, Dick was the center of attention wherever he went. After his appearance, many people were quick to notice him. Moreover, he had Keanu, Alpha, and Flame following right behind him, so those with discerning eyes figured out what was happening instantly. “I’m not mistaken, am I? Wasn’t the instructor of Wolf’s Fang s
The base of Squad 4 was located in a corner of the Insurgent Trifecta. It had the smallest area and received the least resources from the organization. There was nothing the members could do because Squad 4 was known for being the weakest squad in the Insurgent Trifecta. The members were chatting in the common area when the door was kicked violently by someone all of a sudden. They were startled but then, they immediately broke out a torrent of abuses when they saw Keanu, Alpha and Flame at the door. “Keanu, how dare the three of you losers come to our base? Is it because you haven’t had enough of our instructor’s lesson?”“Have you already forgotten about the lesson taught to you earlier after such a short while?”“In my view, they must be itching for a beating, ha-ha...”The dozens of Squad 4 members began ridiculing these three people loudly. With Zayn as their backer, they were utterly not afraid even if they were confronted by Wolf’s Fang now. In fact, they even had the cou
There was another one who countered, “It can’t be that bad, right? Sergeant Larson is a legitimate master fighter, isn’t he? Maybe Sergeant Cheney will turn out not to be his match.”His suggestion immediately earned him a glare. “How’s that remotely possible? Sergeant Cheney has been a mainstay in the gallery of awesome pros for so long. Do you know how many of the most infamously depraved convicts all around the globe died by his hand? Sergeant Cheney is so powerful that our minds can’t even comprehend its extent, okay? How’s Sergeant Larson gonna compare to that? Even if he were a master fighter himself, I doubt he’s gonna match Sergeant Cheney evenly anyway!”“But what are we gonna do about this? We accepted the offer, right? Shouldn’t we tell Sergeant Larson about this?”“Do we have a choice? Of course not. He has to hear about this by this point! God, what have we done? We really dragged Sergeant Larson down with us right there…”Austin, Rafael, and the rest of the squad look
Compared to his high-rising profile and the buzz it generated, Zayn had spent the past two days in utter idleness to the point of boredom.Under Faye’s helm, Neotech had started a round of new investments and expanded the scope of its business venture. While it started as a standalone company at the outset, Neotech was steadily treading the path to being a business conglomerate. Faye had so much on her hands that she did not have the time to take Zayn to town anymore.Zayn felt bad for Faye, so he set up a professional team to help ease her burden somewhat.With his reputation and influence hanging over the company, Neotech was now, for all intents and purposes, under Faye’s complete control with nary an objection from the entire Carter family. Of course, they would not dare raise a contrary opinion, even if they did hold any, because the old Zayn Larson was long gone. Honestly, the family was basically living off Zayn’s influence and power now, such as using the fact that they were
Zayn stood rooted to the spot, motionless. In this brief moment, he felt like a radar sensing every single person within a radius of a few hundred meters. He could see every single one of their features, their looks. The content of their conversations. The pluck and strum of emotions in their interactions, and even their inner mindscape and all of its fleeting sentiments—their peeves, their sorrow, their joy.He could see them all in his head. He had never experienced something like this before!Now, Zayn already knew that he was psychically stronger than almost everyone else. He could literally influence the moods around him through his will, after all, and yet he had never tried the reverse—he had tried expanding his senses and perceived the lives, both inner and outer, of thousands before.It was an exhausting undertaking not unlike a computer going into overdrive, whereby it went beyond its load and seemed so dangerously close to bursting into flames. Zayn felt the same, too, an
Zayn could tell from the young man’s face that the latter had gotten the wrong impression about him already. Tossing the ad aside, he stood and greeted him back with a smile, “Zack! Good to see you. It’s been a while.”It did not take Zayn a long time to recognize who the young man was—Zachary Lambert, who was only a few years his junior. As a pleasant, amiable guy, Zachary used to sell breakfast in a hawker stall just below the stairs where Zayn used to live and was considered a pretty good friend. Zachary had already, on several occasions, bought lunch for Zayn just because he felt like it.After a few simple exchanges, Zayn asked in curiosity, “Say, Zack, I thought you’ve moved up north! What brought you back?”“Yeah, I moved back here a while ago. I’m with Ron now.”Zayn sized up Zachary’s clean, branded suit, knowing that it cost hundreds for one of these, and gave a lighthearted punch on the young man’s chest. “Whoa, whoa, whoa! Zack, you lucky b*stard! Looks like you’ve made
Faron Cole was, admittedly, an old acquaintance who hailed from the same town as Zachary, but it did not mean that Zayn had a good impression of him. Faron was an arrogant, vain showboat who liked nothing more than looking down on anyone he judged as inferior and holding grudges over the pettiest things. Sure, he was smart—or deviously cunning—enough to know how to cut corners and maximize profit, but his unsavory character spoke volumes. Zayn never liked the man that much.On the other hand, Zayn’s nonchalance was rubbing Faron the wrong way, especially since, in his memory, Zayn was just a pathetic, useless doormat of a son-in-law. He was below the successful class of people like himself—way, way below.Disdainful eyes swept all over Zayn. Faron could not help but notice the unremarkable getup, the matted hair, and the look of someone who had really lost much of his fortune. “So, long time no see, Zayn Larson,” he began judgingly, “I trust you’ve found a place to make yourself feel
Zayn’s answer visibly excited Zachary, whose excitement oozed out of his mien as he cried, “That’s wonderful! Just you wait, partner—you’re not going to regret attending tonight’s party. Any fat cat worth their salt is going to be there. You can befriend one or two of them, and then voila! A way up the social ladder is in your hands!”“Wow, that sounds great. It’s all thanks to you, man,” Zayn replied with a smile.Zachary flashed him a smile so earnest that it could only belong to the guileless. “Aw, shucks,” he said, waving sheepishly, “Do you really have to make it such a big deal? You and I go way back! ‘Nuff said.”Zayn smiled slightly. Then, solemnly, he warned him, “Hey, by the way, this might sound a little weird, but there’s something off about you, you know? You haven’t been hitting your stride lately, have you? Think you should be more careful.”“W-what the…? Ha-ha-ha, Zayn! C’mon! When did you start believing in all that new age hoo-ha, huh?” Zachary remarked as he laug
He had already found his next path and he was hopeful for his future. He was convinced that he could reproduce the miracle perfectly if he had enough time!He turned around abruptly and saw Zayn’s icy cold face. He could not refrain himself from saying aloud, “Zayn! I’m your father-in-law! You can’t kill me!”There was a change of Zayn’s icy cold face at last when he heard that. He furrowed his brows for a moment. However, just as Osiris was pleased about his remark, Zayn had already thrown a punch. It was a simple, unadorned, straightforward, concise punch that landed heavily on Osiris’ chest. A poof that sounded like poking through a layer of paper was heard when he punched through Osiris’ chest. On the other hand, Osiris’ body halted to a stop as well. He widened his eyes in disbelief and lowered his head to look at his wound incredulously….“You… You…” He glared at Zayn, his gaze filled with recalcitrance, fear and regret. Zayn said nonchalantly, “You don’t deserve to be h
“You’re next.”Bang!Upon saying that, he exerted strength in his limbs and flew toward Osiris. Yes, he flew over. His body rose into the air and he was capable of standing steadily in the air without any support. He looked just like a superhero from the movies!Most importantly, he was extremely swift in speed and had already surpassed the speed limit achievable by mankind. Osiris felt an immense sense of danger that he had never felt before at this exact moment. It sent a shiver down his spine instantly and he was actually scared out of his wits that his body turned icy cold. He had a feeling that he was no match for Zayn and that he would die immediately if he stayed!Zayn who advanced beyond invincibilis state was way too powerful that he could not make sense anymore and he was no match for Zayn. He made the quickest and most precise decision that was to run. He would spare no effort in running away from Zayn!While there was life, there was hope. Zayn’s success prov
Hence, they did not have the courage to rescue Zayn even after noticing that he was in imminent danger. They could only watch helplessly and do nothing. “Look! That’s Sergeant Larson! Oh god, what transpired in the past few days? Why is Sergeant Larson being surrounded by so many powerhouses from the clubs? He can’t possibly escape from danger under such circumstances no matter how powerful he is!”“Oh no, oh no, Sergeant Larson is going to die here…”“What should we do? Could it be that we’re not going to do anything to save him?”“I don’t know. Let’s ask for instructions from our superior…”The numerous combat aircraft in the sky began to send out signals and asked for instruction from their superior. Soon, they received the reply and they were instructed not to act rashly or approach easily. It was because they would be doomed if they were to get closer and enter the attack zone of the invincibilis powerhouses. Hence, they could only watch from afar and await reinforcement
Upon saying that, Zayn placed Faye on the ground in an extremely gentle and cautious manner. Faye’s body had already become stiff, but her body had actually begun to turn soft after being caressed by Zayn’s palm. She lay flat on the ground with an expression that looked like she was asleep. After Zayn was done, he turned around and looked toward Osiris, his expression icy cold. He said nonchalantly, “It’s your fault that Fifi is dead. You deserve to die.”Next, his gaze swept across everyone and said something that terrified everyone, “All of you deserve to die!”Upon hearing that, Osiris’ expression turned somber and filled with murderous intent abruptly. He had already realized by now that his hard work and effort of a lifetime was wasted on Zayn!At the moment he found Faye in her aging state completely drained of life and power, he realized that his plan had failed!The result of his hard work for a lifetime was seized by the bastard before him!In an instant, his rage
“Zayn’s willpower is so strong that he is capable of withstanding the pain of his body’s restructuring indifferently. He’s an excellent talent.” The person speaking was the armored man and he was looking at Zayn through the cloud without attempting to conceal his admiration. He had encountered plenty of geniuses and countless geniuses more gifted in martial arts than Zayn. However, Zayn was the only ine whose willpower was so strong that he could endure the pain of body restructuring. Even he himself failed to withstand the pain of body restructuring and had rolled on the ground frantically. The woman nodded to herself as she looked at Zayn without attempting to conceal her admiration and approval. “This Earther is quite impressive. He has already taken the step successfully. My trip to Earth was not wasted this time…huh?”However, it was at this exact moment when Zayn on the ground raised his head and looked in their direction with his sharp gaze as if he could sense them.
Zayn wanted to reject her instinctively, but when he saw the final hopefulness in Faye’s eyes, he could not bring himself to reject her anymore. He knew that it was Faye’s final moment.The glint in Faye’s eyes was vanishing gradually. He opened his mouth and of all the words he wanted to say to her in her last moment, he said, “Yes!”Upon hearing the word, Faye’s aged face cracked a smile. Then, the joyous smile was frozen on her face for eternity…Zayn’s body stiffened as well. He had already forgotten how he landed on the ground, but he remained in the same position with Faye in his arms for a very long time. He hugged Faye until her residual body temperature dispersed and her body began to become stiff. Zayn was heartbroken. He felt a feeling of dejection and hollowness that he had never experienced before and it washed over his entire body like a flood. He lost track of time until he felt the rain pouring from the sky. Even the sky could feel his sorrow and began to w
Zayn had never felt so agonized in his life!It was because he knew that Faye was already at the end of her life, not even God could save her now!He had no idea why his heart would ache so badly and why he hated himself so much. It was well within his expectation that both Faye and him would not survive the fall. Now, he was in so much agony just because Faye was one step ahead of him in death. Was he in agony because Faye sacrificed her life for his survival, or was it because he would not see Faye again for the rest of his life?Zayn’s mind could not function normally anymore because he was in so much pain and tormented now. His body was still dropping constantly and at an increasing speed. They were dropping so fast that Faye could not withstand the process and was suffocating. After seeing Faye’s condition, Zayn did not even think. He began to stop his body from falling at full speed instinctively as he was born to do it until he became completely suspended in the air!I
Upon saying that, Faye kissed Zayn’s lips. It was a kiss so deep and unhindered. Zayn hugged Faye tightly as well. In the beginning, he was under the assumption that it was a very normal kiss. It was their final sentimentality before death. However, Zayn discovered that something was off soon!It was because he could clearly feel a gush of immense power passing from Faye’s mouth constantly. The intensity of the power had even surpassed that of the fruits he consumed in Shangri-la. The unexpected change caught him off guard and he was dumbfounded instantly. He did not manage to respond to the situation. What the heck was going on?He widened his eyes and stared at Faye before him. However, he soon saw something that sent a shiver down his spine. Faye’s hair turned from black to white swiftly at a visible speed!Moreover, Faye’s fair, tender skin aged constantly as if life was drained from her instantly. Her skin turned wrinkly and dry like a tree bark. The situation did
“Listen to my order, all members!”Meanwhile, Osiris spoke, his expression filled with ferocity . “Locate both of their bodies from the cliff at the fastest speed!”Upon saying that, he vanished from where he stood. Meanwhile, two people stood at a mysterious location that no one could see above Regicide Heofon’s ground. These two people were a man and a woman. The man was clad in armor and assumed the posture of an army general, filled with dominance. He exuded a powerful presence that had already surpassed the level of all powerhouses on earth. Even Osiris and Zayn were nothing in this man’s presence. On the other hand, the woman stood in front of the man. Her beauty was impeccable and she was as graceful as a fairy…The woman had her head lowered to look at the cliff ahead of her and cracked a peculiar smile. Speaking of which, it was not the first time these two people showed up on earth. They were the ones who brought up the live broadcast of Zayn and King Erik in Sha
