“Is this the world ruled by the Parliament of Light?” Elena whispered softly, with amazement flashing in her beautiful eyes.

Richard looked around, his eyes full of curiosity and exploration of the new environment.

Zhang Beixing, on the other hand, looked at everything around him calmly, with sparks of wisdom dancing in his eyes.

At this moment, a burst of urgent alarms suddenly sounded, breaking the silence.

"Warning! Unknown energy intrusion detected! All defense systems activated immediately!" The cold mechanical voice echoed over the city, shaking everyone's heartstrings.

Immediately afterwards, countless beams of light converged from all directions and tightly surrounded Zhang Beixing and his group.

"It seems that our arrival has aroused their vigilance." Zhang Beixing chuckled, with a hint of teasing and calmness in his tone.

Elena and Richard quickly alerted and prepared for the battle.

At this moment, a tall figure in silver-white armor suddenly appeared in front of them. His face was obscured by a glowing helmet, making it difficult to see his true appearance.

"I am August, the chief law enforcement officer of the Council of Light." His voice was deep and powerful, revealing extraordinary majesty.

"Who are you? Why did you break into our world without permission?"

Zhang Beixing heard this, a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes, and he responded lightly: "We are conquerors from another world. From now on, this world will submit to me."

Augustus burst out with a powerful aura when he heard this, and angrily asked, "Arrogant! Do you think you can conquer our world with just a few big words?"

Zhang Beixing just sneered, his eyes full of disdain: "If that's the case, then prove it with your strength."

Before he finished speaking, he turned into a black light and rushed towards August. The two figures crossed in the air, and violent energy fluctuations erupted. Elena and Richard also quickly joined the battle, and the whole city suddenly fell into chaos.

The battle between Zhang Beixing and August became more and more intense, and every collision of power caused a violent explosion.

"As expected of the Chief Law Enforcement Officer of the Council of Light, his strength should not be underestimated." Zhang Beixing chuckled, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes.

August, however, did not let up: "You are very powerful, but that does not mean you can do whatever you want!" His voice was full of a sense of justice.

"Justice? Humph, that's just a lie you use to deceive the world. Today, I will let you see the real power!" Before Zhang Beixing finished speaking, a terrifying aura suddenly burst out from his body, like a huge wave sweeping across the entire battlefield.

August felt this power, his pupils shrank suddenly, and his heart was beating: "How is this possible? How can his strength be so terrifying?"

Zhang Beixing's eyes flashed with a hint of teasing, and the corners of his lips rose slightly: "Poor ant, you haven't realized the situation yet."

Before he finished speaking, an invisible force suddenly erupted, knocking August away. The Chief Law Enforcement Officer flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, fell heavily to the ground, and vomited blood.

There was a flash of surprise in Elena's beautiful eyes, and she felt extremely proud of Zhang Beixing's strength.

Richard was trembling with excitement, his eyes flashing with fanatical admiration.

"Host, your strength seems to have improved again." The voice of the persuasion system sounded at the right time.

Zhang Beixing just smiled faintly and looked towards the majestic tower in the distance: "That should be the headquarters of the Council of Light, right?"

Hearing this, Elena's beautiful eyes flashed with worry: "Beixing, you don't want to go directly..."

Richard's eyes were shining with excitement and he couldn't wait to show off his skills.

Zhang Beixing turned his head and looked at the two of them, a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes, and he gently patted their shoulders: "Don't worry, I'm here, you don't have to be afraid of anything."

Before he finished his words, he turned into a beam of black light and rushed straight to the headquarters of the Council of Light.

Elena and Richard followed closely behind, afraid of falling behind.

Zhang Beixing's speed was astonishing, and he arrived in front of the headquarters of the Council of Light in a flash.

The guards in front of the tower were horrified and raised their weapons at the uninvited guest.

"Stop! Who are you? Why are you trespassing into the Parliament of Light?" a guard shouted sternly.

Zhang Beixing just smiled contemptuously, his eyes full of disdain: "A mere ant is worthy of blocking the steps of this king?"

Before he finished speaking, an invisible force suddenly erupted and knocked all the guards away.

The whole process was as smooth as flowing water, without any pause.

When Elena and Richard arrived, they witnessed this shocking scene.

"Bei Xing, you are so awesome!" Elena couldn't help but exclaimed, her beautiful eyes full of admiration.

Richard was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes, and he was once again proud of himself for following such a strong man.

"Host, be careful, I feel a strong energy fluctuation inside." The listening system reminded.

Zhang Beixing nodded slightly, a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes: "It's time to meet this so-called Bright Council."

The three of them entered the tower together and headed straight for the meeting room on the top floor.

Along the way, anyone who tried to stop them was easily defeated by Zhang Beixing.

Soon, they arrived at the door of the meeting room.

Zhang Beixing didn't hesitate at all and blasted the heavy door open with one palm.

"Everyone from the Council of Light, long time no see." He said jokingly.

In the meeting room, more than a dozen old men in white robes turned their heads in unison, their faces filled with shock and disbelief.

"Who are you? Why did you trespass into the Parliament of Light?" a white-haired old man asked sternly.

"I am the Lord of the Dark Empire, Zhang Beixing. From today on, this world will submit to my rule." He said proudly, his tone full of confidence.

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire conference hall was in an uproar.

All the congressmen looked at the uninvited guest in shock and disbelief.

"Arrogant! Do you think you can conquer our world by your own strength?" another old man shouted angrily.

Zhang Beixing just sneered, with a hint of disdain in his eyes: "Since you are not convinced, let me prove it to you with my strength."

Before he finished speaking, a terrifying aura suddenly burst out from his body.

The temperature in the entire conference room suddenly dropped, and everyone felt a palpitation.

Elena and Richard quickly stepped back, fearing that they would be dragged in. "Host, be careful, don't go too far." The persuasion system reminded.

Zhang Beixing just chuckled, with a hint of teasing in his eyes: "Don't worry, I know my limits."

Before he finished speaking, his figure had disappeared from the spot.

The next second, he appeared in front of the Speaker.

Without waiting for the other party to react, he slapped the Speaker on the chest.

With a "puff" sound, the Speaker vomited blood and flew backwards, hitting the wall heavily.

The other congressmen were horrified and stood up to escape.

However, how could Zhang Beixing give them this opportunity?
He just waved his hands, and an invisible force instantly froze everyone in place.

"Now, do you have anything to say?" he asked with a sneer.

The congressmen looked at each other, their eyes filled with fear and despair.

They finally realized that the man in front of them was much more powerful than they had imagined.

"We are willing to surrender," said a younger member of parliament in a trembling voice.

The others also nodded, fearing that they would anger this terrifying existence.

Zhang Beixing nodded with satisfaction, a hint of pride flashing in his eyes: "Very good, you made a wise choice."

Before he finished speaking, the invisible force suddenly disappeared.

All the congressmen collapsed to the ground, sweating profusely.

Elena and Richard also breathed a sigh of relief and were delighted with their master's victory.

"Congratulations to the host for successfully conquering the world." The listening system praised sincerely.

Zhang Beixing just chuckled, with a hint of disdain in his eyes: "This is just the beginning. Next, we have to conquer the entire universe!"

Elena and Richard couldn't help but gasp when they heard this, shocked by their master's ambition.

"Host, your ambition is indeed extraordinary." The system exclaimed sincerely.

Zhang Beixing just smiled faintly, with a hint of depth in his eyes.

However, something went wrong on August's side. He had always been healthy but was suddenly diagnosed with violent traumatic mechanical asphyxia.

Upon hearing this new word, all the officers looked confused and bewildered.

They were once familiar with mechanical asphyxiation and pathological asphyxiation, but now this new term that mixes violence, trauma and mechanical asphyxiation feels unfamiliar to them.

"Why is this method of suffocation so strange?" Everyone shook their heads in confusion.

Seeing this, August frowned and continued to stare at the autopsy report, as if trying to find the answer from it.

Just as he was about to get up and go find Dr. Cheng to find out what was going on, a burst of hurried footsteps broke the silence in the meeting room.

Cheng Yongqi, wearing a white coat and looking hurried, rushed into the conference room and shouted loudly: "Report to the Commander-in-Chief, there are new discoveries!" At the same time, he was holding a document tightly in his hand.

August stood up suddenly and looked at him sharply, "Doctor Cheng, I was just about to ask you, what does this autopsy report mean?"

Cheng Yongqi did not answer immediately. He walked quickly to August, pointed at the report and said, "Look, this is the cause of the deceased's suffocation. There is a small hole in his neck, right on the trachea."

He went on to explain: "According to the autopsy report, we can infer that the deceased had been dead for at least three hours, but this wound does not seem to have been formed three hours ago, it seems to have been caused earlier."

"The diameter of this wound is only about 2mm-3mm. If the deceased had not been breathing vigorously and the wound had not been discovered, he might have suffocated to death after a period of time." Cheng Yongqi elaborated.

August's eyes lit up. He seemed to have grasped some key information and asked quickly, "You mean, the time of death and the time of injury are not consistent? But this wound is the real cause of the deceased's death?"

"That's right." Cheng Yongqi nodded heavily. "So my initial guess is that the deceased did not die instantly, but was injured before and died at the scene of the crime some time later."

This result is completely different from their previous speculation, it’s like two different versions of the story!

August looked solemn. He looked directly at the officers present. After a moment of silence, he placed the document in his hand on the table and asked, "Everyone, what do you think about this matter?"

Deputy Commander Elena turned to Doctor Cheng, "Doctor Cheng, based on your experience, how did this wound form? Or what kind of thing could cause such a wound?"

Everyone's eyes were focused on Cheng Yongqi because this was a very critical issue.

They were not looking for the so-called murderer, nor were they seeking justice for the criminal named Wuka. They were keenly aware that the truth hidden behind the wound was the real key.

Cheng Yongqi pondered for a moment and sighed, "According to my experience, the only 2mm-3mm items are needles for injections or some special items, such as the crossbows occasionally used by troops in combat."

These words were like a flash of lightning, breaking through everyone's confusion.

Elena's body shuddered. "If it's a crossbow, then it does make sense, but isn't a 2mm-3mm crossbow arrow a bit too small?"

"It's indeed too small. The standard crossbow arrows in the current army have a diameter of 8.8mm, which is more than four times the diameter of this wound!" Chief of Staff Richard added.

Then, the officer in charge of ordnance echoed: "2mm-3mm crossbow arrows... are too thin. According to the reform of bows and crossbows in our army over the years, 8.8mm is the most suitable, with both explosive power and penetrating power."

"We have tried to make small crossbows before, with arrows that can even reach a diameter of 3.5mm. However, experiments have shown that both the explosive power and the penetrating power are far inferior to those currently used. Not to mention injuring people during missions, even target shooting is not good enough," he explained further.

August took a deep breath. "That is to say, the weapon used by the murderer is very likely a new type of weapon that we have never seen or mastered? This weapon is small in size, has strong explosive power, and strong penetrating power, right?"

He looked around, but no one answered his question.

The meeting room was plunged into extreme dejection, and all the officers had heavy and strange expressions.

Because things have gradually gone beyond their imagination, developing in another direction, and there are signs that they will never turn back.

There is nothing wrong with what August said, and it is indeed the case.

Apart from weapons with those characteristics, they really couldn't think of anything else that could make a 2mm-3mm wound on a person's neck.

After all, the deceased was a foreign criminal who was armed with a gun and had sufficient ability to resist.

At this time, August was looking at everyone while muttering: "To be able to successfully sneak attack a foreign criminal with a gun, this person must have hit the target with one strike and then quickly escaped. Otherwise, when Uka reacts, he will shoot without hesitation. This means that this person's anti-reconnaissance and reconnaissance awareness are very strong!"

"He even has an extremely dangerous weapon in his hand that can kill someone in an instant... He is a very dangerous person." (End of this chapter)
