An ant was crushed!
Su Hui demonstrated absolute control over the entire situation.
He released his grip, letting the deformed creature slide off the wall like mud, collapsing to the ground and whimpering in pain.
An invisible, suffocating pressure suddenly descended from Su Hui, enveloping the entire conference room.
He stepped forward slowly and lifted his foot.
Amidst the Alpha-class mutant's painful whimpers and struggles, a foot clad in combat boots gently stepped on its enormous and ferocious head.
"Click."
A slight sound of pressure on the skull.
The mutant's ferocious nature was instantly extinguished under this tangible pressure, as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over its head.
For the first time, its scarlet pupils revealed a biological instinct, a fear originating from the depths of its soul, leaving only submission.
Its massive body trembled, and it dared not make the slightest move.
Su Hui lowered his eyes slightly, coldly gazing at the once arrogant monster at his feet, and spoke in a calm tone:
"Is this the kind of garbage, defective product that Huanyu Group's 'Pandora Project' produces?"
Arrogance! Disdain! Contempt!
Su Hui's words, as a definitive assessment, were like a knife piercing Vlad's heart.
Vlad's face turned deathly pale, beads of cold sweat appeared on his forehead, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.
Rubbish.
Defective products.
The group's proud masterpiece was so contemptuously evaluated by the other party.
He couldn't understand it, nor could he comprehend it.
How could there be such powerful humans in this world?
There were absolutely no traces of dimensional energy distortion on Su Hui's body; he looked like an ordinary person!
This is completely inconsistent with his understanding of the apocalyptic power system.
Could the other party be one of those legendary "visitors from another dimension"?
No.
He was not reconciled.
We absolutely cannot fail like this.
A flash of madness and determination crossed Vlad's eyes. He suddenly pressed a miniature controller with his right hand, which was hidden in his pocket.
The next moment!
The Alpha-class mutant being trampled under Su Hui's feet had its metal control collar, which had been flashing a faint blue indicator light, suddenly turn a blinding scarlet.
Inside the collar, several tiny needles suddenly popped out and pierced the deformed person's carotid artery, injecting a high concentration of a potent stimulant into their body.
"Roar!!!"
The mutant let out a roar that was even more ferocious and painful than before.
The previously weakened energy surged again under the stimulation of the medicine!
Its body began to swell violently, its bulging muscles bulged, and its hideous blue veins writhed wildly under its skin like twisted earthworms, with dark purple blood vessels bulging out, making it look ferocious and terrifying.
The strange, distorted patterns on its body became increasingly clear and eerie in color, radiating an ominous red light.
Like a carapace, energy matter rapidly emerged and solidified on its surface, radiating a heart-pounding energy fluctuation.
Its power, catalyzed by the drug, surged wildly in a self-destructive manner.
In his crimson eyes, the last shred of reason was completely devoured, leaving only a pure desire for destruction.
The mutant braced himself with his arms, his muscles bulging to their limit, attempting to withstand the immense force beneath Su Hui's feet and forcefully rise to his feet.
The ground trembled slightly due to its terrifying power.
A glimmer of hope shot up in Vlad's eyes.
This is the final measure of the "Pandora Project," which forcibly squeezes out all the life potential of the mutants by completely burning their lives, causing them to unleash terrifying power several times greater than usual in a short period of time.
He refused to believe that an Alpha-level mutant in this state was unable to shake the mysterious man before him!
However, the hope in Vlad's eyes lasted for less than a second.
Faced with the dying, frantic struggle of the deformed creature beneath his feet, Su Hui merely narrowed his eyes slightly.
In those deep pupils, a cold, azure light suddenly shone, like stars reflected in a deep, icy pool.
His foot, which was resting on the deformed man's head, remained completely still.
With his other hand, he slowly reached towards his waist.
"Changlang——"
A faint yet exceptionally clear metallic scraping sound.
The longsword, "Steel-Cutting Blade," was slowly drawn out by Su Hui.
The blade was a deep, dark color, as if it could devour light, but at the very edge, a chilling, azure flame of soul ignited.
It lacked any earth-shattering grandeur.
There are no flashy or dazzling moves.
Su Hui casually shoved the long sword in his hand at the deformed creature at his feet, which was still struggling and trying to get up.
"Pfft——!"
A soft sound, like a sharp blade cutting into rotten wood, rang out.
The blade, ignited with the fire of the soul, pierced with unparalleled precision into the mutated one's wildly beating heart.
[Soul Severing Strike]!
The mutant's wildly expanding body and all its frenzied movements came to an abrupt halt in that instant.
Its eyes, which had turned a blood-red, ferocious red due to the drug's stimulation, quickly dimmed like a punctured balloon.
All that remained was a deathly, gray-white silence.
Its core soul was directly annihilated by the "soul-slaying" power contained in Su Hui's seemingly casual slash.
It has completely lost all vitality.
A suffocating silence fell over the meeting room once again.
You can hear a pin drop.
Vlad, the representative of the Universal Group, lost all color in his face, turning ashen. His body went limp, and he slumped into the expensive leather seat, his eyes vacant, muttering to himself.
"Impossible...this is impossible..."
It’s over.
It's all over.
His greatest asset, the pinnacle of the "Pandora Project"—a project that the Huanyu Group had poured countless efforts into—was as fragile as paper in front of this man.
Saron, the representative of Titan Industries, instantly had a bead of cold sweat on his forehead, and his clothes on the back were already soaked through.
He swallowed hard, looking at Su Hui as if he were looking at a demon god who had walked out of hell.
I was utterly horrified!
Almost instantly, he made his choice, abruptly raising his hands, his voice trembling slightly with tension:
"Miss Grace, it's a misunderstanding! This...this is completely a misunderstanding!"
Saron's voice was distorted by extreme fear, but he still managed to force out a smile that looked worse than a grimace.
“We at Titan Industries absolutely, absolutely have no intention of being enemies with Miss Grace, or this…this gentleman!”
“We…we can cooperate! Yes, cooperate! Titan Industries is willing to engage in the most sincere cooperation with Raytheon Corporation, with Miss Grace, and with you, sir! To become the strongest allies!”
He spoke almost incoherently, eager to distance himself from the now-defunct Huanyu Group.
Everything was done to try and save his own life.
After all, it was the Universal Group that made the move, what does it have to do with Titan Industries!
Since he has the backing of a giant corporation, and he hasn't actually made a move, he might as well beg for mercy and survive.
It can be said that Saron reacted extremely quickly; if it were someone else, they might have actually survived, perhaps out of consideration for the giant corporation behind him.
Unfortunately.....
A hint of undisguised pleasure and cold mockery flashed in Emma Grace's icy blue eyes.
She stepped forward, her voluptuous and tall figure outlined in a stunning and graceful curve by the pure white business suit, yet at this moment she exuded an aura of authority that made people dare not look directly at her.
"cooperate?"
She held her head high, her gaze looking down at the world like a queen judging a ruler.
“Representative of Titan Industries, I remember just a few minutes ago, you and the Universal Group were plotting to carve up our Thor Corporation. I saw it all clearly and heard it all clearly.”
"Now, do you think you can just end all this with a simple 'misunderstanding'?"
Emma took a step forward, the sound of her high heels clicking on the floor echoing clearly in the silent conference room, as if striking Salon's heart.
Saron's face grew paler and paler, and cold sweat slid down his cheeks.
He opened his mouth, wanting to explain, wanting to beg.
But Emma didn't give him another chance to speak.
At this moment, the heiress of Raytheon Corporation revealed the ruthlessness and decisiveness hidden deep within her.
She gave Vlad and Salon no further chance to argue their case.
"Crack!"
A crisp sound of the safety latch being released.
Emma had somehow acquired a fine silver pistol, its dark muzzle pointed unhesitatingly at Vlad, who was slumped in his chair.
"boom!"
The gunshots sounded particularly jarring in the silent conference room.
A bloody hole suddenly appeared on Vlad's forehead, his expression frozen in extreme terror and resentment, and his body slumped to the side, powerless.
Immediately afterwards, Emma slightly shifted the muzzle of her gun, aiming it at Saron, who was already pale with fright.
"no, do not want……"
"boom!"
There was another gunshot.
Saron's pleas for mercy came to an abrupt halt, a bloody flower blooming between his brows as he collapsed heavily to the ground.
Su Hui looked at Emma's clean and efficient methods, and a slightly surprised look appeared in his eyes.
This woman was more decisive than he had imagined.
Emma seemed to notice Su Hui's gaze. She put away her pistol, her fair face remaining completely calm.
She took the initiative to explain, her voice remaining calm: "Not a single word about what happened in this conference room can be leaked out."
She paused, a shrewd glint in her icy blue eyes.
"Killing them was partly to keep your secret; your strength shouldn't be exposed to everyone too early."
“On the other hand,” Emma’s tone turned cold, “the Universal Corporation and Titan Industries will soon find out that the people they sent died here.”
"But they won't know the specifics of the process; they'll only speculate that something dramatic happened within Raytheon, or that we used some kind of trump card they don't know about."
"This will keep them from making any rash moves for the time being, giving me valuable time to reorganize the company."
"Most importantly, Mr. Su Hui, you are my last trump card and the hope for the resurgence of Raytheon. I cannot let you be exposed to the light too early and become the target of everyone's attacks."
Upon hearing this, Su Hui seemed to be deep in thought.
