Rumble!!!
A deafening roar suddenly erupted.
The top floor of the tower, reinforced with a special alloy and considered one of the most fortified fortresses in the base, was as fragile as a paper toy under the frenzied impact of this absolute force.
The walls cracked, the load-bearing columns twisted and collapsed, and the expensive special exterior wall instantly turned to dust.
The entire tower collapsed as if it had been crushed by an invisible giant hand.
Thick smoke and dust, carrying an aura of destruction, rose into the sky.
The piercing alarm instantly tore through the sky, echoing in every corner around.
Wen Zhuli, who was coordinating supplies in the distance, was startled by this sudden change and looked up sharply.
The eyes behind the glasses stared at the familiar spot reduced to ruins, initially utterly astonished, then seemed to instantly understand something, a deep sense of helplessness appearing on their faces.
"Why is the boss doing this to himself..."
"Even though you're so concerned you're going crazy, you have to hide away and overthink it, and then you get really angry."
"Boss, you don't want to destroy the world, you've clearly fallen into a trap and can't get out, yet you're still stubbornly clinging to that little bit of persistence and refusing to let go..."
He pushed up his glasses, muttered to himself in the air, and was speechless with frustration.
Like many of Wen Zhaoye's core subordinates, Wen Zhuli was not born with the idea of destroying the world.
Many of them were pulled up by Wen Zhaoye in their most desperate moments.
Some even idolize his breathtakingly powerful strength.
Their loyalty has always been to this man himself.
Whether he wants to destroy the world or is hopelessly in love and so angry with himself that he's tearing down the house.
But Wen Zhuli knew better than anyone else the deepest, unhealed scar in the eldest brother's heart.
Regarding his mother's death.
That woman, who was originally gentle to the point of being timid, was ultimately betrayed by the person she trusted most because of her belief in the inherent goodness of human nature. Along with her young eldest brother, she was also pushed into hell.
That blood-stained scene of death was the origin of all the boss's paranoia and destruction.
But now, he finds himself unable to control his excessive attention towards another woman who shares the same peaceful mindset.
For him, this contradiction was tantamount to the most complete betrayal of his deceased mother's beliefs, an unforgivable and emotional betrayal.
This intense internal conflict caused him so much pain and anger, ultimately leading to the scene of him blowing up the tower.
As the smoke and dust slowly settled, Wen Zhaoye stood proudly in the center of the ruins.
He was surrounded by terrifying vortexes of energy that had not yet subsided, his molten gold pupils still burned with rage, and his incomparably handsome face was filled with a cold and violent expression.
His fists were clenched so tightly that the veins bulged and even trembled slightly.
Wen Zhuli suppressed all his emotions, quickly walked through the swirling dust, and respectfully stood three steps behind him with his head bowed, his voice calm and even: "Boss."
Wen Zhaoye did not turn around or respond.
His gaze seemed to pierce through all obstacles, fixed intently on the direction of the base.
That woman is probably having a great time playing that damn rock-paper-scissors game.
He clenched his teeth so tightly you could almost hear them grinding together, and every word he uttered was laced with the chilling stench of ice and blood: “The plan will be launched ahead of schedule.”
"……yes."
Wen Zhuli did not hesitate at all, as if the earth-shattering commotion just now was insignificant.
After winning another round, Zi Xi rubbed her throbbing temples, feeling that the alarms from afar at the base seemed to be ringing a bit more frequently today.
But so what? She then happily tried to put the candy she had won into her little drawer.
Completely unaware that the distant tower had vanished.
The commotion caused by Wen Zhaoye's furious act of collapsing the tower was so great that even though the base's higher-ups tried to suppress the news, the soaring energy fluctuations and deafening roar could not escape the notice of certain people with ulterior motives.
In particular, those of his own people who were already deeply dissatisfied with Wen Zhaoye's recent unusual behavior.
