Seeing that Apollo had shot the flaming arrow, not only Abbess Yun Miao and the rest, but even Sargeras and Lilith, who hadn't escaped, closed their eyes.
From their perspective, this was an unsolvable and tragic ending …
For a moment, apart from the cold wind blowing past their ears, there was no other sound on the island.
They didn't understand why Yang Cheng would kill the four people from the Vatican so carelessly. They also didn't understand how Yang Cheng could be so indifferent as to let the fake Apollo shoot a flaming arrow at Lin Ruoxi that no mortal could withstand.
But they couldn't bear to see such a beautiful body turn into ashes in front of their eyes …
After more than ten seconds, they forced their eyes open. They didn't hear any sound from the monitor, which made them puzzled.
When everyone took a closer look, they were immediately dumbfounded.
On the deck, where Lin Ruoxi was lying, there was a semi-transparent, golden-red shield around her. A fire-like brilliance flowed on the shield, making it look extremely beautiful.
And that powerful, crimson flaming arrow was blocked by the shield. Starting from the arrowhead, it seemed to be swallowed bit by bit. Sparks flew everywhere, and it began to dissipate!
"What … is that?"
Everyone had a huge question in their minds. Why did a shield that could swallow such a terrifying attack suddenly appear?!
But no matter what, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. When they looked at Yang Cheng's faint smile again, they realized that Yang Cheng must have predicted something, which was why he was so calm.
On the deck, Apollo couldn't believe it. He took a step back and shook his head, muttering, "Impossible, how is this possible? What … what the hell is this?!"
Apollo was enraged by the sudden change in the situation that was originally under his control. He raised the golden longbow in his hand again and drew another Flame Arrow.
"I don't believe it can't pierce through!!"
An even more ferocious flaming arrow was shot out once again. However, just like before, the moment the flaming arrow came into contact with the golden-red flowing light shield, it was completely useless!
"You can't shoot through it. Although you're very strong and the weapon in your hand is comparable to a divine weapon, you're still not a god." Yang Cheng finally opened his mouth and said with a smile.
Apollo spun around, trembling with rage. "What's going on?! Tell me what this is!!? "
Due to his extreme anger, Apollo's voice was different from before. His roar shocked the haggard Fodessa on the island.
"Chief … Chief!?"
Fodessa cried out in surprise. He stood up abruptly and questioned loudly, "You're the director?! You are not Apollo! You're Director Depney!!? "
Apollo's eyes showed a little panic, but more than that, it was anger and ruthlessness.
Yang Cheng laughed even more happily and scratched his ear. "Ah, it's Director Depney. I was wondering why you were pretending to be Apollo. Now, it doesn't matter how loud you speak. Your plan has been exposed. "
This scene stunned Abbess Yun Miao, Sauron, Sargeras, and the rest. They naturally knew who 'Depney' was. He was the director of the Seventh Bureau of the French Security. Initially, they thought that Fodessa, the deputy director, was hosting the meeting because of the division of labor. Who would've thought that the director was actually 'Apollo'?!
As if knowing that it was useless to keep up the act, Depney took off the Roman helmet with the totem of the sun on it and threw it to the side, revealing a face that had gone through the vicissitudes of life. His slightly curly hair drooped down, and his hawk-like eyes were no longer filled with the flattery and arrogance of the past. All that was left was deep hatred and dominance.
Fodessa, who had worked with him for many years, almost couldn't be sure of Depney's identity.
"Director … It's really you. No wonder … no wonder you suddenly asked me to host such an important meeting … So … why …" Fodessa's heart sank. He realized that he had been tricked by Depney from the start! It was as if the whole world had collapsed. All the energy in his body was sucked out, and he couldn't even ask a complete question.
The corner of Depney's mouth twitched. He snorted coldly. "Trash, I really shouldn't have raised you up. Talk about the glory of a soldier. You're just a bastard. How dare you talk about glory with me … Hmph!"
Fodessa's eyes were bloodshot, and he didn't say a word.
Depney couldn't be bothered with his subordinate. He said darkly, "Pluto, I admit that I've underestimated you. I didn't expect you to expose me so quickly. However, this won't affect the final outcome. The detonator is still in my hands. Even if I can't kill your woman right away, I can still blow up the entire island. So, you still have no chance of winning. "
Yang Cheng patted his chest and revealed a frightened expression. He sighed. "Director Depney, you're really smart. How could I forget that you still have the detonator? But I'm also stupid. I've long guessed that the so-called 'Apollo' is actually an important member of the French government, but I didn't expect him to be able to control a nuclear bomb. "
Depney laughed coldly. "Oh? You actually had such a guess? I'm interested to hear how you managed to guess such a thing. Anyway, there's no rush to detonate the nuclear bomb. You can treat it as your last words before you die. "
As he spoke, Depney raised the longbow in his hand. "While you're explaining your theory, I'll shoot some arrows as a gift to you. Although I'm not sure what method you used to protect your woman from me, I think … if you die, then she won't have to die … To be honest, it's a pity to kill a woman like her … "
Laughing maliciously, Depney pulled the bowstring again.
"Rustle, rustle, rustle!"
This time, Depney shot three arrows in a row!
Yang Cheng said unhurriedly, "Actually, when we were kidnapped to Romilly, I already had my suspicions. In a city so close to Paris, no matter how hidden the warehouse is, it's impossible for the French Security Bureau not to find it after so many rich nobles disappeared. The biggest possibility, I think, is that they don't want to find it at all. "
As he spoke, three flaming arrows fell rapidly from the sky, heading for the three people on Sauron's side!
Yang Cheng didn't look at them. He opened his hand, and surging Xiantian true Qi rolled back like a raging wave, destroying the terrifying arrows in mid-air!
On the other end of the monitor, Depney's face turned green. Although he didn't think his weapon could do much damage to Yang Cheng, he had shot it at the others. But he hadn't expected it to be of no threat at all!
Yang Cheng didn't take it seriously at all. He continued, "Moreover, the first target chosen by the so-called 'Realm of God' and the time they launched this operation are also very suspicious. If it really is such a powerful organization, why didn't they choose to deal with the more threatening America and Britain? Wouldn't it be more effective to threaten the American president? If it really was a God, would they need to be afraid of Blue Storm? And the French Security Bureau, as everyone knows, isn't very strong. Picking on a pushover would be a waste of their grand goal of dominating the world.
That's why I guessed that he chose France because the fake Apollo could only choose France. "And the reason why they waited until now is because in this half a year, the French president will become the rotating chairman of the European Union. "At a time like this, the excuse for choosing France is even stronger. It won't make people think that it's because Apollo is in France.
"Another important point is that the Paris Fashion Week is the time when the world's most famous nobles and merchants gather. If they make trouble at this time, the governments of the various countries won't dare to openly stop their nobles and merchants from coming to France. Other than exerting pressure on the various governments, they can also obtain large amounts of funds to purchase weapons through kidnapping and extortion …"
At this point, Depney's expression changed unpredictably, and the veins on his forehead bulged. It was obvious that he had guessed correctly.
As for Abbess Yun Miao and the others, they gradually understood. No wonder the Security Bureau couldn't do anything about the Realm of God's misdeeds in France. So it was "embezzlement!"
Yang Cheng sighed. "When I saw the weapons in the hands of those men in black, they were actually the most advanced light machine guns from the German HK company. They were all equipped with special forces level equipment, and I was almost certain that the Realm of God is an organization that can't be separated from the government. Otherwise, how could these random terrorists have so much money? And their official weapons manufacturers wouldn't easily sell their equipment.
"I can only say that your plan has some flaws, but it's still very thorough for most people. The flaw is that you overestimated your own strength, and even more so, overestimated the strength of your ally, the Vatican."
"So what?!" Depney shouted. "So what if you've guessed correctly now?! All of this will sink with the island, forever sinking to the bottom of the sea!
When I kill all of you and blow up these idiots from various countries, the world will be in chaos, and every country will be suspicious of each other! When I kill the French president, and then kill a few leaders of the European Union, the European Union will naturally listen to me. Even those people from the Sword in the Stone won't be able to defeat me, who has a divine weapon!
I will become the master of the European Union, ignite the flames of war in the world, and become the master of the world! No one can stop me!! "
Looking at the deranged Depney, everyone on the island couldn't help but grit their teeth.
"What a madman. Does he really think that kind of plan will succeed?" Lilith said angrily. As a proud member of the Blood Race, she naturally couldn't accept being played by a human.
"No, rather than saying that his plan is to rule the world, it's better to say that he wants the whole world to fall into the flames of war, as if he's taking revenge on the humans …" Sargeras said softly.
Depney laughed maniacally for a while before he stopped, panting. "I can't be bothered to say anything to you people who are about to die. Since I can't kill Pluto's woman for now, I'll kill the others first. Fodessa … My deputy director, I'll send your wife and son to hell to wait for you! "
"No!! Director, don't kill them!!! "Fodessa roared, climbing onto the monitor and shouting.
Depney couldn't be bothered with him. He turned around, raised his bow again, and aimed at the unconscious Harry and his son, condensing two flame arrows.
However, just as Depney was about to shoot the arrows, the unconscious Stern, who had been lying motionlessly on the ground, suddenly scratched his hair and slowly climbed up from the ground.
Seeing Stern suddenly wake up, not only were the men in black surprised, but Depney also frowned. As far as they knew, the drugs on the hostages wouldn't wake them up so quickly!
After standing up, Stern didn't forget to stretch. He glanced at Depney, who was holding the golden bow and pulling the flame arrows, and shook his head, as if lamenting something. Then, he looked at the monitor and said to Yang Cheng, "Hades, are you done yet? Don't you know that the deck is very cold? Why do you have so much to say? Persephone isn't a non-human like us. Who can a girl cry to when she has a cold?
I was wondering why she didn't let you go to bed. You're too wishy-washy and not straightforward at all. Didn't you just tell this pig that he failed? You're done talking. Don't you know that we're rushing back to Paris for supper? Don't you know that the place that sells good food closes after midnight? "
Yang Cheng wasn't surprised to see Stern stand up. He rolled his eyes. "Seems like you're the one who talks too much."
Seeing that Stern and Yang Cheng were chatting, completely disregarding him and treating him like air, Depney was instantly enraged. "Bastard, who do you think you are? You're courting death!"
As he spoke, Depney changed the direction of his arrows and shot two consecutive arrows at Stern!
At such a close distance, two flame arrows that could shatter steel plates were unavoidable!
"Idiot," Stern didn't move, but curled his lips and muttered silently.
A golden-red shield that radiated light appeared in front of Stern once again, directly swallowing the two flame arrows!
"Don't you understand? The one who stopped your arrows wasn't that guy on the island, but me, your grandfather." Stern looked at Depney with a gaze full of helplessness.
Hearing this, Depney took two steps back. His heart trembled as he realized that something was wrong. He said in a low voice, "You … you're not Stern! Who the hell are you?! "
Stern burst out laughing, almost losing his breath. He pointed at Depney and shook his head.
"You want to start a world war with a brain like yours? It's true that you'll die of stupidity without fighting a war. You used my name and used my banner to swindle people everywhere. You should have been mentally prepared to be exposed. "
Hearing Stern's words, Depney's mind went blank. His eyes widened and his voice trembled. "You … you're … you're …"
"Finally figured it out." Stern stroked his brilliant golden hair and grinned. "That's right, I'm — A … Bo … Ro."
