While speaking, Helios stomped his foot hard on the ground.
Boom!
The concrete floor cracked open, and the tremor instantly knocked all the soldiers off their feet.
“Fire! Take those two down!” Ronan bellowed in the midst of chaos.
A dozen or so soldiers loaded their guns without hesitation, ready to shoot down their enemies.
Yet, before they even had the chance to pull the trigger, Lunar fired the first shot.
The device on her left wrist, similar to a watch, suddenly activated, simultaneously locking onto the soldiers aiming their guns at them. A small red dot appeared on each soldier's forehead.
Right after that, she simultaneously fired a dozen red lasers from the device.
Swoosh!
All those soldiers, each with a bloody hole in their forehead, fell to the ground in unison, never to rise again.
Ronan was utterly terrified.
The expressions of the other soldiers at the scene changed dramatically.
With a calm expression and a smile on his face, Helios declared, “Don't do anything rash if you don't want to die. If you're trying to find out whose weapons are faster, you'll only regret it.”
Immediately upon hearing that, Ronan and the troops dared not act as they pleased.
These two mysterious individuals were not only incredibly powerful themselves, but the enigmatic laser weapons they wielded were also terrifyingly formidable.
Helios smirked as he saw how frightened everyone at the scene looked.
Then, they saw a man dressed in a suit and a pair of black combat boots approaching them. He was tall and upright, with eyes as bright as the stars, and a serious expression on his face.
Behind the man, a group of subordinates followed.
Helios and Lunar exchanged glances, communicating their inner surprise through their eyes.
They could tell that it was most likely this man who had captured Sirius.
The frivolous and arrogant demeanor they once had just a moment ago vanished, and for the first time, their expressions turned serious.
Seeing Nathan show up, Ronan rushed forward with unparalleled anxiety and shielded him. “Mr. Cross! These intruders are incredibly powerful, and they possess a mysterious laser weapon that can instantly kill a dozen people. It's dangerous here. You need to leave at once,” he urged.
Mr. Cross?
Helios had already sensed the vampiric powers within Nathan, and upon hearing Ronan's words, realization dawned on him—the person standing before him was indeed Nathan Cross, the one he was looking for.
