Chapter 144 The Twin Stars Under the Solar Throne
When Aikema heard what Su Rui said, he was immediately immersed in boundless shock, even momentarily believing his ears had malfunctioned!
Apollo?
In the entire Western dark world, only the radiant Sun God himself could claim to be Apollo!
How could this be possible!
No, perhaps, perhaps it really was possible!
This man knew the Western dark world so thoroughly, always emanating an overwhelmingly powerful aura that made people feel suppressed and suffocated. Combined with his exceptional skills, Aikema truly couldn’t imagine who else besides the Twelve Gods could achieve such feats!
Destroying the Black Blood Mercenary Group with a wave of his hand—perhaps only the Twelve Gods had such power!
Realizing this, Aikema’s entire body trembled like a sieve!
Unbelievable, unbelievable that Apollo, the Sun God among the Twelve Gods, would appear here!
Had he known this earlier, even with ten thousand lives of courage, Aikema would never have dared come here!
This was completely suicidal behavior!
Aikema finally came to his senses. Ignoring the transparent hole in his knee still gushing blood, disregarding the excruciating pain from the wound in his palm, he knelt down supporting himself on the ground, pressing his head tightly against the floor, and called out with a trembling voice:
“Please spare my life, sir! Please spare my life!”
Su Rui shook his head, his gaze cold: “Did you not hear clearly what I just said?”
Aikema didn’t understand Su Rui’s meaning and said tremblingly: “Which… which sentence are you referring to?”
“I just said that the Black Blood Mercenary Group has no reason to continue existing.” Su Rui’s counter-question made Aikema’s body suddenly begin uncontrollable trembling: “Aren’t you a member of the Black Blood Mercenary Group?”
Su Rui’s words virtually pronounced Aikema’s death sentence!
Aikema lay on the ground, not daring to raise his head, his entire body shaking. At this moment, he finally clearly felt the terrifying feeling of impending death!
“The Black Blood Mercenary Group has committed numerous atrocities, and as one of its main fighters, you must have participated in some inhumane acts. I believe I won’t be killing the wrong person,” Su Rui said calmly.
This Black Blood Mercenary Group had always acted cruelly, completely disregarding humane principles to complete missions, committing countless bloody atrocities.
Su Rui was adept at breaking rules while subtly establishing his own. He had his own principles, and he deeply despised such inhuman actions.
It was precisely because of this character that he became an anomaly in the Western dark world, subtly bringing a glimmer of light to this world full of darkness.
As the saying goes—to dispel darkness, I am the sun.
Aikema finally realized what kind of person the legendary Sun God was. After hearing Su Rui’s words, he truly recognized that he indeed would not survive.
Ten minutes later, Su Rui walked out of the storage room, leaving behind two corpses.
As for disposing of the bodies, that would be left to Lin Fuzhang. Such minor matters shouldn’t require his attention.
After leaving, Su Rui didn’t immediately go to Lin Aoxue’s office. Instead, he went straight up the stairs to the rooftop, seemingly wanting the wind there to disperse the bloody smell from his body.
Facing the late spring breeze, Su Rui slightly narrowed his eyes, star-like light gradually gathering in them.
He took out his phone and dialed an international number.
However, before the call connected, he said this to the phone:
“I know you’re listening to my call, but I advise you not to monitor this upcoming call, otherwise, you’ll bear the consequences.”
Su Rui spoke calmly, his language carrying a deeply cold tone, seemingly devoid of any emotion!
At that moment, hundreds of kilometers away from Bikan’s main building rooftop, in a dimly lit room.
The room appeared to be several hundred square meters, filled with various instruments and wires, numerous indicator lights flashing frequently, and many uniformed people operating at workstations, all wearing headphones without exception.
At this time, one person put down his headphones with a contemptuous expression and said to the middle-aged man sitting behind the large desk: “Boss, what should we do?”
The middle-aged man also put down his headphones and smiled bitterly: “This is his threat, a blatant threat.”
“How dare he threaten us? Doesn’t he know such threats won’t have any effect?” The staff member said disdainfully: “Telling us to bear the consequences is really not knowing his place!”
“You’re the one who doesn’t know his place,” the middle-aged man said gravely.
This statement clearly exceeded the staff member’s expectations; he hadn’t anticipated his boss would say such a thing!
“You don’t understand him, don’t know what he’s capable of when he gets angry.”
The middle-aged man said: “Do as he says, we’ll stop monitoring this call.”
The staff member’s face was filled with shock. In his impression, his boss was a super tough guy who feared nothing and even dared to confront direct superiors. Why would he now compromise with a monitored subject? This completely defied common sense!
“Boss, this doesn’t seem appropriate, it violates regulations…”
The middle-aged man immediately became angry and slammed the table: “You’re not listening to me? Do I need to repeat myself?”
“Yes, yes, yes.”
Hearing this, the staff member immediately cut the connection.
At this moment, Su Rui’s international call had just connected.
…
In a mountain range separated from China’s Ninghai by an entire ocean, there was a base built entirely of metal.
This base was located inside a huge mountain cavity, as if the entire mountain had been hollowed out from the inside, almost turning the mountain into a metal fortress.
It’s hard to imagine who could complete such a massive project—truly breathtaking.
In the training ground at the lowest level of the base, many people were engaged in various training exercises. Among them, a young man wearing a white tight-fitting tank top was wearing headphones and holding an assault rifle, practicing moving target shooting.
His muscle lines were very smooth, his posture holding the gun was extremely aesthetic, and his aim was perfect—hitting the bullseye with every shot!
This chaotic type of moving target was very challenging. The targets moved extremely fast, testing the shooter’s instant reaction time and drawing speed. Very few people could hit all targets without missing a single shot!
And this young man was clearly a genius with guns!
Five consecutive minutes of high-intensity shooting, and not a single target was missed!
Gently touching the hot barrel, the man in the white tank top wiped his sweat and then put on a pair of black-framed glasses.
He was a handsome young man, looking only in his early twenties, with a heroic air between his brows.
He threw down his towel and looked at his companion who was sound asleep in a chair nearby, shaking his head: “Always sleeping like this, one day you’ll sleep yourself to death. Falling asleep at the shooting range—I really can’t with you.”
That companion continued to sleep soundly, even taking a towel and covering his face in a daze.
Seeing this, the young man in the white tank top couldn’t help but feel helpless.
At this moment, a lazy voice came from under the towel: “Huang Ziyao, you don’t understand shit. You just train like crazy every day. Do you know what life is about? It’s about comfort, understand? Sleeping in the most comfortable way is the whole meaning of life for me.”
The young man called Huang Ziyao shook his head: “Your talent won’t last forever. Sooner or later there will come a day when it runs out. When you’re not careful and get shot dead one day, let’s see how you enjoy life then.”
“Huang Ziyao, go shoot your gun and mind your own business. Why care about me? You’re purely jealous and resentful, cursing me to die with every sentence. But I won’t stoop to your level. While the boss is away, I’ll enjoy several good, comfortable naps. You and the boss are so alike, why be so hard on yourselves? What’s wrong with you? I think you both have masochistic tendencies.”
Huang Ziyao silently cleaned his gun and then began loading bullets into it.
“It’s all your fault, training like a maniac, making me lose my desire to sleep.” The sleep-loving youth sighed as he removed the towel from his head, rubbed his sleepy eyes, revealing a rather handsome face, though with a hint of roguishness.
Huang Ziyao looked at him, put down the gun, and began doing push-ups.
“Hey, do you have to be so intense? Do you know what the meaning of life is? Have you ever dated? Have you ever hooked up? Have you ever had women on both arms?”
“Shao Zihang, my life pursuits are different from yours.” Huang Ziyao continued doing push-ups, his speed getting faster and faster, sweat pouring down from his head and body.
Interestingly, both men had “Zi” in their names.
Hence the title “Gemini Stars.”
These were the brilliantly shining Gemini Stars under the Western dark world’s Sun God!
It was well known that the twelve divine guards under the Sun God were extremely powerful and held high status. Each could stand on their own. However, above the twelve divine guards, there was an even more powerful pair of Gemini Stars who rarely took action but whose reputation was never less than anyone else’s. In fact, just mentioning the name of the Gemini Stars could make some fierce characters immediately submit!
“Your life is really too boring. You’re quite handsome, have such a good physique, if you don’t have a relationship, people will think you’re gay,” Shao Zihang said with disappointment.
“Whether I’m gay or not doesn’t need your concern.”
While speaking, Huang Ziyao switched to one-handed push-ups, but his speed didn’t slow down at all.
At this moment, his phone placed nearby rang.
Huang Ziyao stopped his push-ups, picked up the phone, looked at the number, and said with a serious expression: “Big brother is calling.”
Shao Zihang picked his nose: “He’s definitely checking on us. Disappeared for so long, who knows where he went to enjoy himself.”
Huang Ziyao glanced at him and said: “Hello, big brother.”
“Three days. Slaughter the Black Blood Mercenary Group for me.” Su Rui’s cold voice came clearly from the other end of the phone!
