Chapter 1474: Chapter 1474: Finale Part 22
Those who are not afraid of death are not worthy of admiration; it is those who love life and yet are still fearless that truly command respect.
That kind of energy that exudes the brilliance of life is irresistibly captivating.
The car sped along the highway for more than an hour, arriving at a desolate wilderness far from the city. Here, there were neither villages nor inhabitants, so quiet that only the sound of insects could be heard.
The cold moon was dim, and the sparse starlight even duller, casting an eerie, gray shadow over the world.
Ye Lu got out of the car and surveyed the surroundings, her eyes narrowing involuntarily. The Godfather was truly something; in this remote wilderness where even signals couldn’t be received, even if there were a satellite SOS, there was no way to contact the outside world.
Everyone got out of the car, turning on the lights they brought, instantly illuminating the area within a hundred meters as bright as daylight.
But just then, unexpectedly, a large black mercenary unit emerged from the forest to the east, which had been as calm as water a moment before, rushing forth like a black tide, carrying a terrifying murderous intent.
They were armed to the teeth, with hawk-like eyes sharp and fierce, cold as wolves, displaying skill and movements that were clearly those of elite underground mercenaries specializing in land combat.
Not only did Ye Lu’s face change, but even Ying, who followed her and usually remained expressionless regardless of surprising events, displayed a look of astonishment.
He was the controller responsible for assassinations within the new organization.
Almost all the armed forces within the new organization were under his command, yet he had never seen such a super-powerful unit, hidden with such skill, their actions swift and resolute, clearly death warriors who licked blood from the blade without regard for their lives.
He glanced sideways at the Godfather, who stood in the cold night wind wearing a long coat, looking down imperiously at the mercenaries as they came forth and knelt uniformly on the ground, a dark mass, shaking the earth and resounding to the heavens!
His eyes reflected a hint of bitterness; even though he had been loyal as a dog from childhood, working diligently for the new organization, several times nearly losing his life, the Godfather had never truly trusted him.
Nominally, he was given charge of all the armed forces in new, yet secretly, there was a hidden death squad like this one, ready to punish anyone who defies or betrays him at crucial moments, including Third Young Master Jun, and himself!
It seemed the Godfather had long sensed that Third Young Master would act tonight and made ample secret preparations.
Now everyone here was under the Godfather’s control. Even with Einstein-like genius minds, Ye Lu and Third Young Master were trapped, hardly able to hope for a chance of victory.
The only mystery was, since the Godfather had fully prepared, capable of controlling Third Young Master completely, why did he also bring Ye Lu here for the transaction? He couldn’t fathom Ye Lu’s role in this deal.
Meanwhile, Third Young Master Jun looked at the mercenaries who had suddenly appeared, his icy, indifferent face devoid of expression, watching them coldly, seemingly unmoved, though his fingers hidden in his sleeve twitched slightly.
The Godfather glanced at him with a complex expression: "You haven’t seen them before, have you? These are death warriors I personally trained, appearing tonight to ensure our guests’ safe departure."
Ye Lu and Third Young Master were extremely surprised; the Godfather hadn’t brought these mercenaries to deal with them, but to escort several drug intermediaries?
