Colonial Suit

#272 - Deadly Man

Ice's movements were undeniably swift. In fact, he had already reached subsonic speeds.

This was already second-level meteor speed. Aside from the supersonic burst, there was nothing faster. So, in an instant, he swept across the entire area like a gale, appearing at the entrance of the Waterfall Bridge.

It was a massive archway. As long as he passed through here, he would be in the Waterfall Bridge viewing area.

But no one expected that the moment he appeared at the entrance, a sudden change occurred…

A milky-white energy barrier suddenly rose from the archway, followed by the deafening closure of the alloy gate within the archway, isolating him and everyone else on the dock's plaza.

"Heavens! What's happening!"

"Why is the Waterfall Gate closing!"

"Guards! Guards! What are you doing? Do you want to lose your jobs?"

"Damn it, I'm going to contact the head of this place. Who gave him such audacity?"

"Hell, put away your personal terminal. I am the head of this place! And I'm locked out too!"

"Why! Who closed the Waterfall Gate! Who!"

The entire plaza instantly descended into chaos. Groups of guards rushed towards the control tower in the distance like startled ants. The Rain Night Song's guards also rushed out of the ship, heading towards Ice.

Everyone was so flustered. Except for Ice…

His face was pale, and his heart sank little by little.

Careless…

Still careless…

He had known for a long time that the terrifying family head would make a move against her daughter here. He had imagined it countless times. But when the moment truly arrived, he realized he had underestimated that old woman.

She was so eager, so ruthless, not even waiting for a moment. And her attack was so vicious right from the start. What chilled Ice the most was that she had even abandoned him.

Ice was a pawn she placed beside Carrie. Originally, Ice thought he was the one executing this mission. But he was wrong.

This old woman's methods were always unpredictable, always so sinister and ruthless. It turned out she only needed Ice to control Carrie's itinerary. If Carrie hadn't wanted to come to the Golden Nebula Waterfall, then Ice, this pawn, might have been useful. But once Carrie's foot stepped onto the Waterfall Bridge, he, this pawn, was discarded.

Just like throwing away a pile of garbage, without any mercy.

Ice didn't know if the old woman knew he had changed sides. But at this moment, he knew that the old woman had never trusted him. No, she didn't even trust anyone.

"Damn it!" Ice punched the alloy gate, creating a deafening bang.

But the alloy gate didn't even budge. This type of gate was twenty meters thick, coupled with a powerful electromagnetic energy field. It could actually withstand a barrage of ship cannons. Even Ice, as a meteor-level, couldn't break it.

However, the moment Ice punched it, he felt a tremor beneath his feet, as if his punch had shaken the entire space station.

"This is!" Ice's eyes widened.

He certainly didn't believe he had the power to shake the entire space station with a punch, so…

He turned back in surprise. He saw the Rain Night Song behind him erupting in terrifying flames on the dock.

Boom!!

Explosions and roars echoed throughout the ship's hull, thousands of meters in length. The first burst of flames started from the stern, with dozens of engine nozzles simultaneously blasted off, flying into the air like a lump of metal. Following that, the engine room, engine compartment, and energy storage room. All the important parts of the Rain Night Song exploded! The terrifying shockwave swept across everything on the dock, blasting everything into a chaotic mess.

The dock's emergency protection system had been activated, and a blue energy barrier appeared before everyone's eyes. But this was meaningless. The Rain Night Song's explosive energy was too strong. The energy reserves of such a huge cruise ship were no different from a nuclear bomb. The dock's energy barrier might protect some of the people present. But who could protect the other ships docked in the harbor?

So, in just a moment, the Rain Night Song's explosion created a chain reaction, engulfing all the ships in the entire dock. Everywhere one looked, there was fire, everywhere was the wreckage of explosions. The sky was filled with burning fire rain, and the entire Waterfall Bridge trembled like an earthquake.

"Oh God!!" An old man clutched his chest and slowly slid to the ground, his eyes filled with despair and fear. "Is this your punishment for us?"

"What's happening! Damn it! How could this happen!!"

"No, save me, I don't want to die!!"

"Guards, hasn't the control tower been taken over yet? Quickly raise the second protective layer! We're going to be torn apart!!"

The entire dock was in chaos like the end of the world. People screamed and fled in all directions. Even more people were directly scared unconscious on the ground. But they couldn't change anything anymore. The Waterfall Bridge's airport design was very unreasonable. It used the ancient centralized docking mode. Once an explosion occurred in this mode, there was only one outcome. Disaster…

The roaring continued, and in just a few minutes, the ships in the entire airport exploded one by one. Ice personally saw huge engine nozzles being blown into the air, and he also saw people being blasted out of the wreckage.

There were no survivors…

The Rain Night Song's explosion was too sudden, coupled with the near-instantaneous chain reaction. No one who was still on the ship could react. They didn't even have time to open the escape pods before being caught in the intertwining of iron and fire. Screams and wails became the only things present in the channel.

In the explosion, Ice felt a chill all over his body…

He knew that the old woman had done this. Yes, it must have been her.

This was her second move! Destroy the Waterfall Bridge!!

She was crazy!!

To obtain the Romick family's inheritance, for this battle of heirs. She was already using any means necessary. Heavens, destroying all the ships, completely destroying the Waterfall Bridge. Did she want to send everyone here to the graveyard? This ruthless woman, she was too terrifying!!

Ice could hardly imagine it, although he was a warrior, and he killed people. But he had never seen such a ruthless woman. In the eyes of this Romick patriarch, life no longer had value, only numbers and sacrifices.

"It can't go on like this." Ice stared blankly at the disastrous dock, muttering to himself.

"Sir, what are you saying?" The guard beside him asked. They were all frightened as well. They had just come down from the Rain Night Song, and in the blink of an eye, the Rain Night Song had exploded. Just thinking about it made them shudder.

"Nothing…" Ice finally came back to his senses, and directly grabbed the nearest guard. "Tell me, where is Lord Blood瞳!"

"We didn't see Lord Blood瞳. Maybe he's still on the ship."

"That's impossible!!" Ice's eyes were bloodshot, and he roared loudly. "He can't be on the ship, he should have already come down, right in the middle of us, right near here!!"

"But…" The guard trembled with fear, stammering. "But we didn't see him."

"Damn it!" Ice threw the guard to the ground. Then he suddenly turned around and rushed towards the control tower not far away.

He had to do something, had to change something! There was only one way, and that was the control tower!

Although he also knew that the old woman could never allow such a loophole to exist, this was already his only choice.

"Sir, you can't go in. This place has been taken over by us!" An airport guard blocked Ice's path, shouting loudly.

"Get out!" Ice didn't even bother to waste time talking to him, and casually waved him aside. Then he crashed into the control tower. Along the way, many guards tried to stop him, but no one could stop Ice's footsteps. Compared to Ice, these guards with guns were at most children. They couldn't even get Ice to pay more attention.

In an instant, Ice swept to the top floor of the control tower like a gale.

At this moment, he was fully armed, his fighting spirit like fire. But just as he entered the top floor door, two terrifying wind pressures came from the left and right respectively. Ice's pupils shrank suddenly. Without even thinking, he raised his fingers.

"Absolute Zero!"

Crack crack crack, the temperature of the entire top floor instantly dropped to an extreme. Visibly to the naked eye, everything turned white. And the two wind pressures stopped instantly, turning into two frozen fists. The owners of the fists were two men wearing armor, and no expression could be seen on their faces hidden under their masks. They were fixed in place in an attacking posture, their armor covered with snow-white frost.

In normal times, these two men would definitely be very powerful warriors. Judging from the fist pressure they unleashed, they had at least reached the peak of the Apprentice level. But now… Ice didn't have time to play with them.

Almost in an instant, Ice rushed into the top floor wrapped in ice shards, and pressed down on their fists as he passed by the two men.

With a crackling sound, the two men immediately fell down, their bodies shattering into pieces in the freezing.

Instant kill!

This was the combat power of a meteor-level!

But Ice's footsteps stopped here. Because just as he rushed into the top floor. He saw a man.

A man sitting on the top floor control tower, with one leg dangling on the ground, while playing with a gun.

At this moment, the entire top floor had become a frozen world, but this man didn't have any ice shards on his body. It was as if he was isolated from the world. He focused on playing with the gun in his hand. He didn't even look up when Ice killed the two armored warriors in seconds. Golden bullets were loaded into the chamber by him. Then, with a click, the bolt was closed.

"You…" Ice's pupils shrank suddenly, becoming highly vigilant. "Who are you?"

The man didn't answer him, but casually put the gun aside. Then he seriously looked at Ice for a while. His gaze was expressionless, even colder than Ice. He looked at Ice as if he was looking at a dead object.

After a long while, he slowly opened his mouth, his voice dry and hoarse.

"My name is Wolf隼."
