Tycoon War God

The Captain of the Miraculous Squad, Silver Ultra, is dead? The Hercules Skyship has crashed?

At Miraculous Squad Headquarters, all members gathered in silence, as if doomsday had descended.

The Miraculous Squad had clashed with the Western Deity Race for many years, with both sides suffering losses. Never before had they sustained such heavy damage in a single day.

The Hercules Skyship could be rebuilt by America in another three or four years, but the loss of Silver Ultra in battle was immeasurable. Without the protection of Silver Ultra and his Steel Body, the Miraculous Squad was as good as eighty percent destroyed.

”Everyone, speak up. What on earth happened to the Captain and the others?” The only remaining Vice-Captain of the Miraculous Squad, Black Hawk, asked, his gaze cold.

”Before the incident, there was a special energy spike, and then we lost contact with the Hercules Skyship,” one member reported. ”When the signal was restored, the life signs of almost everyone, including Captain Silver Ultra, were gone. Only Frost Lady survived. She’s now approaching the west coast of America at high speed, likely in some sort of aircraft or plane.”

”The last message from the Hercules Skyship before it crashed indicated that Silver Ultra and the others were heading to the Bermuda Devil’s Triangle to capture an Eastern Cultivator.”

The room fell silent once the report concluded. In truth, they had all seen the relevant intelligence. Ironically, what truly shocked them was not the crash of the Hercules Skyship, nor the death of Captain Silver Ultra. It wasn’t even the annihilation of the Miraculous Squad’s external team. It was the time interval between their deaths.

The fastest, Jack, died first. Then, Super Green. Followed closely by Sonic Wave Woman. The time between the deaths of these three powerhouses was less than one second.

In a single second, three of the Miraculous Squad’s strongest members were killed, including the fastest, Jack, and the most resilient, Super Green. The implication sent a chill down their spines.

What followed was even more terrifying. The other five team members were wiped out instantaneously, followed by Silver Ultra’s tragic death. All of this had happened in just two or three seconds.

In other words, this formidable enemy took less than five seconds to annihilate the Miraculous Squad’s external team and down the Hercules Skyship. An enemy of this caliber was beyond their imagination. He was simply invincible.

”The Captain’s team went to the Bermuda Devil’s Triangle,” someone spoke up. ”Could the Duke of the Bloodline from the Blood Sea have awakened?”

In his mind, only a Duke of the Bloodline at the True God level could possess such terrifying lethality. Furthermore, Silver Ultra and his team would have had to venture into the Blood Sea itself, allowing the Duke to leverage its power for instant kills.

”Impossible! The Captain wouldn’t be foolish enough to barge into the Blood Sea!” another member objected.

”Arguing about this is pointless,” Black Hawk interrupted the cacophony. ”Blind Warrior, has Frost Lady still not responded?”

Blind Warrior was the only Martial Artist on the Miraculous Squad. He had once gone to the Divine Continent to study under a Martial Arts Grandmaster. In the Miraculous Squad, however, he was not highly valued and was mainly responsible for communications.

”No,” Blind Warrior replied succinctly. ”However, she hasn’t turned off her communicator, allowing us to track her location. I believe she has fallen into enemy hands and is no longer in control of her own actions.”

”Hmph! Everyone else is dead, even Silver Ultra, yet she’s the only one who survived? And you’re still trying to speak for her?” someone challenged.

Blind Warrior remained silent.

”Enough,” Black Hawk said, his eyes sweeping across the meeting room. ”Let’s discuss how we will respond if Frost Lady brings the enemy here.”

But no one spoke. An enemy capable of killing Silver Ultra instantly and wiping out half the Miraculous Squad in a flash... They stood no chance against such a formidable foe.

”Damn it!” Black Hawk slammed his hand on the table. ”Are we just going to let that vampire invade our country?”

”Vice-Captain,” Blind Warrior suddenly said.

All eyes turned to him.

After collecting his thoughts, Blind Warrior said, ”I don’t think the enemy is the Duke of the Bloodline.”

”Impossible!”

”If not the Duke of the Bloodline, who could possibly have the power to kill Silver Ultra instantly?”

”Even the Lord of All Deities from the Western Deity Race couldn’t do that, right? Not to mention their Three Sacred Treasures are gone.”

They were adept at turning on their own when they couldn’t find a way to deal with the enemy.

”Shut up. Let Blind Warrior speak,” Black Hawk ordered, his voice like ice.

His ability was psychic control, capable of dominating a person’s soul, which was why the other team members feared him.

”If the Duke of the Bloodline had emerged, the Sea of Divine Grace and the Prison of Divine Might would have reacted,” Blind Warrior explained. ”Those priests are the sworn enemies of the Blood Clan.”

The Sea of Divine Grace and the Prison of Divine Might were the two major power structures of the Church, with strength comparable to the Western Deity Race. Their feud with the Blood Clan dated back more than two thousand years.

With that single remark, Blind Warrior reminded everyone. Only then did they recall that the Blood Clan had such a formidable enemy and could not act so recklessly.

”Actually, you’ve all subconsciously forgotten someone,” Blind Warrior continued. ”The one person most likely capable of killing Silver Ultra in an instant and obliterating the external team.”

”Who?”

”Who are you talking about?”

Not a single member of the Miraculous Squad had considered it.

Blind Warrior sighed. They always underestimated the power of a Martial Artist, even after witnessing that divine battle not long ago.

”The Legend of Our Age. The World’s Number One. Lin Mu, Lin Wudi.” Blind Warrior enunciated each word of the name.

Complete silence descended upon the conference room. No one dared to make a sound. No one even dared to speak a single word of slander against Lin Mu. Such was the prestige of the World’s Number One, the Legend of Our Age.

An Eastern Cultivator suddenly appearing in Bermuda. Silver Ultra’s mission to capture that Cultivator. The power to kill Silver Ultra in an instant. All the clues connected, laying the conclusion bare before them. Unfortunately, their habit of looking down on Martial Artists made them subconsciously avoid this truth that they couldn’t bring themselves to face.

”Regardless of whether the enemy is the Duke of the Bloodline or the Legend of Our Age, Lin Wudi, we have only one option left.” Black Hawk scanned the room and said coldly, ”Awaken Adam.”

”Absolutely not!”

”Vice-Captain, please reconsider!”

”Black Hawk, do you have any idea what you’re saying?”

Black Hawk sneered. ”Then how do you plan to face the might of the World’s Number One? Wait here to die, or flee?” Before anyone could answer, he continued, ”If you flee, the Miraculous Squad is finished. Even if you survive, you’ll become a laughingstock, no longer worthy of calling yourselves heroes.”

Everyone fell silent.

”Awaken Adam,” Black Hawk repeated. ”It’s the only way.”

No one answered.

Finally, an old man with white hair and a white beard spoke coldly. ”To create Silver Ultra, Adam sacrificed one-tenth of his divine cells, and he still hasn’t fully recovered. If you awaken him now, he will permanently lose one-tenth of his strength. He is our god. Do you want to permanently weaken our god over a matter of pride?”

”Black Hawk, believe it or not, I will kill you!” the old man declared bluntly.

He was the most unique member of the Miraculous Squad. Possessing no superpowers, he was merely a mad scientist, yet he commanded everyone’s reverence. Because he was the creator of the True God, Adam. The reason these Ability Users and bio-enhanced soldiers possessed their miraculous powers was that they had received Adam’s divine cells.

To awaken Adam just to kill Lin Wudi… was it worth it?
