The Gobi was dyed red with blood.
Under the afterglow of the setting sun, armed helicopters hovered in mid-air.
Below, neatly arranged tanks and armored vehicles roared deafeningly.
As far as the eye could see, tens of thousands of corpses lay scattered across the Gobi!
An hour ago, they were recognized as the strongest, most brutal, and most inhumane Black Mamba Mercenary Legion in the world, but now they had all perished here.
And the force that annihilated them was the invincible legion of the present age, the mightiest—War God Palace!
...
A helicopter suddenly accelerated, hovering in front of the leading armored vehicle.
A fully armed warrior leapt from the helicopter, kneeling on one knee on the ground, and shouted loudly, "Lord! There's a major discovery at the Black Mamba base!"
Atius Seymour pushed open the car door and stepped out.
He was dressed in a desert camouflage uniform, with a tall stature and an imposing aura.
Throwing the cigarette in his hand to the ground, Atius slowly reached out to take the documents passed by the warrior.
Upon seeing the second page, Atius's mouth slightly curled up.
"Interesting, they actually tried to develop a combat-enhancing drug from my DNA."
Atius flipped to the next page, and the smile on his face suddenly vanished, replaced by a look of shock and astonishment.
Suddenly, as if remembering something, Atius quickly flipped through the documents in his hand, a chill and murderous intent involuntarily spreading.
Five years ago, he was lying on his last breath in an abandoned park in Shorysford City, and it was that girl named Eilir Yates who saved him.
He could not forget Eilir, who was still in college, working three jobs a day just to buy medicine for him.
He could not forget that girl, purer than a snow lotus, who always smiled and said to him, "You need to get better soon!"
He could not forget the farewell letter Eilir left him, "I'm going back home to get married, you shouldn't come looking for me."
But now!
The document in front of him showed that not only did Eilir not marry, but she also gave birth to a child four years ago.
And the father of the child was none other than him, Atius!
A towering aura erupted from Atius, and all the warriors immediately lined up, quietly waiting for Atius's command.
"Brothers!"
"I have good news for you! I'm a father now!"
Atius's eyes were bloodshot, and his angry voice pierced the sky, echoing across the entire Gobi.
"But!"
"The remnants of Black Mamba have already rushed to the Red Dragon Kingdom, trying to kidnap my wife and daughter!"
Upon hearing this, all the warriors' eyes turned red, and the overwhelming murderous intent frightened the vultures circling high above to fly away in terror.
All the warriors roared to the sky, "Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Atius leapt up, soaring into the sky, and stood at the helicopter's door.
He looked down at his warriors, growling, "Arrive at Red Dragon Kingdom Yeoannes City within three days! Kill any god in the way, kill any Buddha in the way!"
After saying this, the helicopter sped up sharply, flying eastward.
Two minutes later, a shocking piece of news caused a sensation around the world.
The world's number one ranked Black Mamba mercenary group was destroyed by War God Palace.
Immediately after, all major powers around the world received the news that all members of War God Palace were rushing to the Red Dragon Kingdom!
At this moment, they realized that what the world knew was only the tip of the iceberg of War God Palace's strength.
According to estimates, the members of War God Palace should be around fifty thousand, but now, the number of members who have revealed their identities has already exceeded one hundred and fifty thousand!
Not only that, the dozens of Heaven Rank experts and tens of thousands of Earth Rank masters revealed by War God Palace caused countless forces to tremble.
Red Dragon Kingdom, Shorysford City, Safety Bureau Base.
A piercing alarm sounded throughout the base, and tens of thousands of personnel became nervous.
They sat in front of their computers, watching surveillance videos from all over the country, and exclaimed in horror, "The number is still increasing! What is War God Palace trying to do!"
In the closed conference room, hundreds of Safety Bureau officials were also staring intently at the electronic screen.
The screen showed a huge satellite map, with numerous little red dots rapidly approaching the Red Dragon Kingdom from all over the world.
A middle-aged man stood up, roaring, "War God Palace has only been established for five years, but they have already destroyed no fewer than three hundred powerful dark forces. I always thought they were on the side of justice!"
"But now, who can tell me, what is War God Palace coming to Red Dragon Kingdom for!?"
The elder sitting opposite also had a tight frown, shaking his head, "War God Palace is on the side of justice, there's no doubt about that."
"Those dark forces that were destroyed, each one is an existence that our Red Dragon Kingdom hates to the bones, moreover, all members of War God Palace are descendants of our Red Dragon Kingdom!"
A high-ranking official said with a puzzled face, "In the past five years, War God Palace has never set foot in Red Dragon Kingdom. Could it be that there are hidden dark forces within our Red Dragon Kingdom?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room shuddered.
If that were the case, it would be a dereliction of duty for the Safety Bureau!
Suddenly, the electronic screen displayed the austere face of a middle-aged man.
All those present stood up and saluted.
The middle-aged man hmm'ed, and slowly said, "War God Palace's actions this time are not against our Red Dragon Kingdom. Issue an order immediately, all local Safety Bureau must not interfere with War God Palace's actions."
Hearing the middle-aged man's words, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.
At the same time, spies from various major powers placed in the Red Dragon Kingdom received urgent orders to immediately withdraw from the Red Dragon Kingdom and not to conflict with War God Palace!
Yeoannes City.
Someone got the news that a super VIP was about to arrive.
For a time, all the nobles in Yeoannes City were inquiring about it, all wanting to get acquainted with this big shot.
But what they didn't know was that this big shot was coming to Yeoannes City with towering rage.
...
Atius stood on the pinnacle of Yorlosland Iron Tower, the landmark building of Yeoannes City, overlooking the entire city.
Below on the water surface, a few corpses still floated. Looking closely, these corpses bore the distinctive mark of the Black Mamba mercenary group on their necks.
A thirty-something man in white clothes rushed across the river surface and leapt to the top of the thousand-meter-high tower in less than five seconds.
He extended his right fist to his heart and respectfully said to Atius, "Lord, all the dark forces' agents implanted in Red Dragon Kingdom have been intercepted."
"In addition, through interrogation, it was found that there are only two remaining members of Black Mamba in hiding."
Atius coldly glanced at the floating corpses on the water surface, his calm voice hiding a towering anger, like the deep sea before a storm is about to come.
"Have you found any news about Eilir?"
The man in white shook his head, a hint of confusion flashing in his eyes.
"Lord, we found that there are only ten people named Eilir in the entire Yeoannes City, and the only one that fits the age is Miss of the Yates family."
"But the Yates family is the richest family in Yeoannes City, not the poor household you mentioned."
"And, Miss of the Yates family is getting married tomorrow."
Atius's gaze trembled.
"Kaladin Jacobs, you go to the Yates family for me to see if Miss of the Yates family is the person I'm looking for, arrange for someone to protect her well!"
"If... if she truly intends to marry, then I will bless her."
Kaladin nodded and leapt down from the tower, walking on the river and quickly disappearing from sight.
And in the Yates Residence, dozens of miles away, it was a festive and joyful scene.
In a two-story building deep in the manor, surrounded by several hefty men, not even a mosquito could fly out.
The bedroom door on the second floor was tightly closed, and a beautiful woman stood at the door with food, persuading with all her heart, "Eilir, no one can change the decision made by your grandfather, just listen to me and marry peacefully to the Seymour family."
"The Seymour family is a big family in Shorysford City, much stronger than our Yates family. You won't be at a loss."
"Besides, out of several Misses of the Yates family, the young master of the Seymour family has taken a fancy to you, that's your good fortune."
Seeing that Eilir did not respond, Tacita Lee sighed deeply, "I was also married to your Yates family because of a marriage alliance, and now I also live quite well, don't I? Just listen to me, eat something and have a good sleep, and marry happily tomorrow."
"Although I'm not your biological mother, I am also thinking of your best interests, at least say something."
In the bedroom, Eilir curled up on the windowsill, but her figure had noticeably lost a lot of weight.
Her long hair fell messily on her shoulders, her delicate face filled with haggardness and tears, her eyes full of despair and anger.
She kept calling out the name "Nidawi".
That was the daughter she had with that man, the only sustenance in her life.
Remembering the man's face, Eilir's eyes welled up, and tears once again overflowed.
Outside the door, Tacita, failing to persuade, fell silent for a while and then said, "Eilir, don't blame me for speaking harshly, if you don't think for yourself, you should also think for that bastard."
"Your grandfather said that you can choose not to marry, starving to death is not a problem, it's just that the bastard will have to join you in death!"
