Colonial Suit

"Humph!"

The old man lowered his head, a hint of mocking smile appearing at the corner of his lips.

"Repentance?"

"Boring!"

"In my eyes, you're just like a child whose building blocks have been knocked over. You're protesting to me for such a childish reason. But what's the point? Hec, you and I are no longer children. In this universe, naivety is a dead end..."

"You came here to fight me, just to prove that I was wrong back then? But even if I admit it, so what?"

As he spoke, the old man raised his right hand and waved it towards the vast wilderness behind him.

"All of this, will not change!!"

"Do you see that? This is the power of the ancients, the greatest legacy of Crodir! Do you know how important it is to us humans?? Do you know how many people at the Mercenary Headquarters are waiting for our news at this moment? Compared to the great evolution of mankind, what does your individual self matter? Not to mention you, even if Niya stood before me again, here, today!"

The old man took a deep breath, looking directly into Hec's eyes.

"I would still do it."

Bang!

As the old man spoke his last word, the ice crystal rose on his finger suddenly shattered, countless fragments piercing into his skin like small knives. In just an instant, the old man's right hand fell apart, and a large amount of blue energy particles scattered out, like a swarm of dancing fireflies.

\u003c.

However, the old man didn't even glance at it, just staring intently at Hec, coldly saying.

"Your growth surprises me, but doing this only makes you seem more childish. Hec, I believe you will make the right choice."

"Don't disappoint me."

As he said this, the old man's expression was so solemn, so serious, as if he was really fighting for the welfare of mankind. Where was the slightest hint of his previous ambition? If one hadn't seen it with their own eyes, no one would believe that just a few minutes ago, he was still trying to get his hands on this relic.

Unfortunately, Hec shattered his disguise with just one sentence.

"Sorry, sir," Hec shook his head, a smile that was not quite a smile on his face, both mocking and pitiful. "Actually, I've been here for a while."

"What!?" The old man's expression changed drastically.

Hec's words completely shattered his侥幸, and his heart sank. \u003c, but rather premeditated! Although he had felt that something was wrong with Hec from the beginning of the mission, when Hec really revealed his hideousness, the old man only felt endless寒意 in his heart.

Yes, he was wary of Hec, very wary.

Perhaps in the eyes of most people, Hec was just a Planetary level, but in the old man's eyes, he never saw it that way!

Because Hec's power system was very special, it was a binary energy rule that even he couldn't master! And his absolute freeze, even now, no more than five people in the mercenaries dared to boast that they could resist it! Hec was one of the Nine Generals, but also the most special of the Nine Generals. And when such a figure stood before him, even the old man had to be deeply wary!

With a flash of thought, the old man suddenly said.

"Hec, do you want to betray us? Don't forget, although you escaped my sight, Black and White have also not appeared. Have you not considered the consequences?"

If he couldn't persuade him, he would have to threaten him. Black and White were the people the old man had left behind from the beginning to restrain Hec. The old man believed that this would definitely be effective on Hec. Because Black and White were the strongest of the Nine Generals, ranking far above Hec! No matter how powerful Hec was, when faced with these twins known for their strangeness and cruelty, he would probably be restrained.

But he never expected that as his voice fell, Hec suddenly revealed a strange expression.

That expression was both mocking and pitying.

"Black and White?" Hec sneered, suddenly waving his right hand. "Are you talking about them?"

Two black shadows drew an arc in the air, eventually falling at the old man's feet. Looking again, the old man's eyes were about to split.

Those two black shadows were actually two hideous heads! Looking at those faces, weren't they Black and White?

It's just that Black and White, once known for their coldness and cruelty, now only had two miserable heads left, and their expressions were full of anger, helplessness, and...

Fear.

What made them leave such expressions even after death? The old man didn't know, but his heart sank lower and lower, becoming more and more冰寒.

He knew that it must be very, very terrifying.

A terror that even the strongest Planetary level, Black and White, could not accept.

"Hec..." the old man groaned softly, feeling as if all the strength in his body was about to dissipate. With the situation developing to this point, Hec's intentions were already obvious, that he would definitely go against him. And the purpose was very simple, it was for that daughter who had once been kicked out by him!

The old man really couldn't understand what kind of resentment would make Hec take such actions, such recklessness!

You have to know that behind this altar is the strongest power of Crodir, traversing the universe for ten thousand years! It is a real treasure! What reason did Hec have to ignore everything that made the universe go crazy? Just for a woman?

For the so-called...

'Emotion'?

Yes, it was emotion, because even if the old man was crazy, he couldn't connect Hec's behavior with 'love'. The gap between them was too great, a 'beggar boy'. The old man would never believe that his daughter would fall in love with him, let alone believe that Hec dared to disregard the difference in status and harbor觊觎 for a noble, all-possessing 'Clan Leader'!

That's not some fairytale, it's just a dream!!

"You're crazy!!" the old man roared loudly, feeling as if all the blood in his body was rushing to his head.

"Niya is your Clan Leader! Even she is not worthy of stopping this sacred moment! This is the future of mankind, no, this is my future! This is everything to me!! I will become the greatest king in the universe! I will lead mankind to sweep away all obstacles. I will be the only hero in human history! I am the savior!"

"Compared to this, what is your little emotion worth? What is Niya worth!?"

The old man shouted madly, finally revealing his ambition without any disguise. Yes, at this moment he no longer needed to hide anything! What he wanted was the relic, what he wanted was to become a hero!!

For this, anyone who dared to stand in his way, he would tear apart without mercy!

Even, his own daughter's inheritance.

"Hec!" the old man suddenly straightened his face, finally saying seriously. "Do you really want to stop me? Stop your Clan Leader's father from obtaining that great glory? You need to know that I can tolerate your nonsense, but if you insist on going on, you are my enemy."

"This relic is meaningless to you. Why be my enemy?"

The newest novel is first published at Six 9 Books Bar!!

"Meaningless? Be your enemy?" \u003ce ignored everything, his madness was even more terrifying than the old man, even more hysterical. While laughing, he walked towards the old man, panting as he spoke. "Old man, no, great 'savior'. Are you thinking too highly of yourself? Since I'm standing here, since I'm challenging you at all costs, how could I not have any ideas?"

"Could it be that this relic can only be obtained by you? Just for your narrow ambition?"

What!?

The old man's pupils shrank sharply, exclaiming in disbelief.

"You... you actually..."

"Yes!" Hec's laughter stopped, his face becoming hideous in an instant, twisting his handsome face like a ghost.

He said to the old man, word by word.

"Maybe you'll be surprised, but sir, in fact, I also want this relic. Everything here belongs to me!"

"Even you, don't even think about stopping me!"

"You're crazy!!"

The old man's heart trembled violently, feeling his whole body shivering. An extreme fear rose from the deepest part of his heart, silently spreading throughout his body, causing him to tremble involuntarily.

He pointed at Hec with a trembling finger, his voice even changing.

"What's the use of you having these? Do you really want to betray the mercenaries? Betray humanity?"

"You're just a Planetary level! Even if you obtain all of this! It will eventually belong to those old immortals at the headquarters. Without actual power, you can't protect the fruits of your harvest!"

"This is just wishful thinking!"

"Wishful thinking?" Hec sneered, his face becoming even more狰狞. He stared fiercely at the old man, suddenly shouting hysterically.

"Where in my past was not wishful thinking!? Where in my future is not wishful thinking!?"

"When have you high and mighty 'nobles' ever considered our feelings? The so-called human evolution, the so-called cosmic competition, are just excuses you use to sound good!! You, only care about your own interests!!"

"Yes, you have power. I have nothing to say, but now I also have power! So, I want to say no to you!"

As he said this, Hec suddenly opened his hands, emitting terrifying energy fluctuations. Endless ice crystals instantly froze the entire cave, turning everything into a world of ice and snow!

In the endless crystal clear ice crystals, he shouted angrily.

"I will use these hands to take back what I have lost! I will use this relic to correct the mistakes of history! What does the future of mankind have to do with me? Even if all of humanity dies in front of me, I won't even glance at it! The only one I care about is one person! Only her!!"

"My Clan Leader, my sister, my lover..."

"Niya."

Hec's hands drooped down, saying calmly to the old man.

"Will be resurrected!"

"Obstructors... die."

With a wave of his hand, an invisible force instantly swept across the old man's neck, cutting his head into the air.

ps: Little Knife typed out the last word, and his whole body softened on the back of the chair, finally... writing out the hidden line that he had conceived for half a book... Before this, Little Knife had been patiently enduring, not wanting to expose Hec's ambition. But he didn't expect that because of Little Knife's update speed, this hidden line actually took more than two months to write out.

Now, everyone understands, right!

Hahahaha, Little Knife really wants to know your expressions. Don't throw banana peels.
