Chapter 668: Extra 19

"The ultimate weapon that kills a single person precisely at the speed of light, with zero collateral damage?"
Anthony felt a chilling coldness at his fingertips.
"Yes. As you said, this is a punishment delivered at the speed of light.
The moment I press the execute button, even if the target is sitting in a supersonic fighter jet, he has no chance of dodging.
This is execution at the speed of light, literally."
Anthony swallowed hard, a bitter smile creeping across his face.
Initially, he thought it would be the launch of a massive, devastating beam of light, like a nuclear weapon, flattening a vast area of ​​the earth as a strategic deterrent.
As it turned out, it was a thousand times more terrifying than he had imagined.
There was no warning, no deafening explosion, not even the sound of air being torn apart.
Everyone in the world, before this beam of light, was nothing more than an ant offering its neck for slaughter!
"Isn't this the real deal, a world-destroying weapon representing divine punishment that can be unleashed at any moment?"
"The reason I came to you a year ago was to prepare for today."
Su Yun's emotionless eyes fell on Anthony.
"Now that the divine sword is complete, it's time to draw it.
So, didn't I ask you?
To find out who dares to oppose this world, oppose our Fanghuan, and most importantly, oppose my father's will!
Find out exactly who they are, where they usually operate, and then create a blacklist for close surveillance."
"...Ah, yes." Anthony took a deep breath, suppressing the overwhelming shock in his heart.
"We've already compiled a blacklist of high-risk individuals and are using all nearby resources to track them in real time.
This is the highest-level access key to that list."
The trembling USB drive Anthony handed over was inserted into the terminal, and a holographic projection immediately appeared in mid-air via a laser array.
On the perfectly round Earth model, countless red dots, like scarlet bloodstains, lit up densely, representing signs of life.
These were all the deadly targets wreaking havoc in the world ruled by his father.
Immediately afterward, a retro-style pop-up window appeared in the center of the holographic screen:
[Target locked. Authorize activation of "Helios" orbital strike?]
Su Yun extended his slender finger, his fingertip hovering lightly above the execute button, just as he was about to press it.
Anthony snapped back to reality, instinctively reaching out to stop him, a fine layer of cold sweat beading on his forehead.
"Wait. Young Master…
Since it's this kind of dirty work with hands stained with blood, let this old man, accustomed to the smell of death, handle it.
There's really no need for you to dirty your hands."
Su Yun's movements halted.
He turned his head slightly, looking at Anthony, a very faint, very slight smile playing on his lips.
There was no bloodlust in that smile, only a detached sense of destiny.
“It's alright. I know better than anyone what the mission I was born with truly is.”
“...Huh?”
Click.
Without the slightest hesitation.
Su Yun's fingertip fell, decisively pressing the execute button.
In this small space, there was no grand sound, no alarm sounded; everything fell into an eerie, deathly silence.
But Anthony's sixth sense, honed by a lifetime of life-threatening crises, clearly sensed it.
The sky of this world had collapsed in that instant.
The matrix representing supreme violence was silently adjusting its focus.
It was divine punishment descending upon sinners, relentlessly falling at an absolute speed of 300,000 kilometers per second towards the world's countless coordinates!
"Does the chairman... know about this?" Anthony's voice carried a barely perceptible hint of awe.
"Anthony, you only need to remember one thing."
Su Yun turned around, turning his gaze back to the boundless night outside the window.
"What is it..."
"This project, which suppresses the world and reigns supreme, who personally approved it?"
"Ah—"
Anthony stood frozen in place.
Instantly, Su Hao's perpetually enigmatic face, seemingly holding the entire universe in his hands, flashed into his mind.
So that's how it is!
So everything was part of the chairman's scheme!
After a long silence, the once-dominant leader of the secret guards silently rose and, like a devout believer, bowed deeply to the young man's retreating figure.
"I understand. I will immediately prepare the next purge list! Do our best to eradicate these scourges from the very roots!"
"Very good. Use all of the resources of the Wildfire Citadel to keep a close watch on who dares to threaten my father's empire!"
"Yes, sir!"
In fact, just a few years ago, with the complete establishment of the Fanghuan Empire, Anthony's once bloodthirsty heart inevitably fell into a period of routine weariness.
But who could have imagined that the sudden emergence of this crown prince would be like a pot of boiling liquor, causing his dormant blood to boil once more!
The rust that had seeped into his bones over the years was instantly washed away by an overwhelming surge of fear and fervor!
Like the still-standing Su Yun, an barely suppressed smile bloomed on Anthony's deeply lined old face.
He genuinely felt that withdrawing his retirement application was absolutely the most damn wise decision he had ever made in his life!
