Chapter 356

"Forward!" barked the Paris security captain, gesturing sharply.

At his signal, fifty elite soldiers surged forward, weapons raised and ready.

They had stormed over the moment they heard trouble erupting in the governor's mansion, prepared for anything.

Just as they approached the grand doors, they swung open with a haunting creak.

"No need to lurk around out there," called a cold, detached voice from within.

"Come on in."

Inside, Alex sat calmly in a high-backed chair, his eyes glinting dangerously.

Governor Norman Guise shouted frantically, "Kill him! Shoot him now!"

Instantly, the elite soldiers stormed in, surrounding Alex and leveling their rifles straight at him.

Alex glanced around casually, unfazed. "I wonder, are any of you ever doing dirty work for this corrupt governor?"

Some of the elite soldiers, almost without thinking, shot quick, nervous glances at their comrades-the ones rumored to be doing the governor's dirty work.

It was a fleeting, instinctive reaction, nothing deliberate.

But those very soldiers-the ones truly guilty-didn't look at anyone.

Their eyes were locked on Alex, cold and murderous, their only intent to kill him.

"You better kneel or die!" They warned Alex.

"Kill me?” Alex smiled darkly and snapped his fingers.

Instantly, about ten soldiers-the ones clearly tied to the governor's dirty work- lifted their guns and pressed the barrels beneath their chins.

A split second later, gunfire erupted.

One by one, they pulled their triggers, dropping lifeless to the floor, including the squad leader.

The remaining elite soldiers froze in horror before rage took over.

Shouting, they swung their rifles toward Alex and unleashed a barrage of bullets.

But to their shock, every round halted midair, stopping dead about a meter away from Alex, hanging there as if trapped in an invisible wall.

Alex raised his hand again, snapping his fingers once more. The bullets clattered harmlessly to the marble floor.

Then, to their horror, the remaining soldiers felt their arms move against their will, forcing their own guns to their heads.

They struggled desperately, fighting an unseen force as their fingers tightened involuntarily on the triggers.

"I'll give you one last chance," Alex said, his voice cold and unyielding.

"I came here to wipe out every last Guise who's been doing filthy, dark things— murdering and hurting innocent people."

"If any of you still have a heart, if you hate what they've done as much as I do, then stand with me. Kneel now, and you'll be spared."

The soldiers shifted uneasily, glancing at one another.

Most of them had no love for the Guise family.

They hated the dirt, the blood, the screams of the innocent-but they were soldiers, government men. Orders were orders.
