I Can Destroy Planets with My Psychokinesis-Chapter 219. Start of War
Chapter 219: 219. Start of War
The drug lord’s estate was luxurious and stylish, and the garden was planted with rare tropical plants, lush in verdant green.
But amidst this beautiful scene, countless soldiers were hidden, fully armed with tactical gear and live ammunition.
All of them carried HK416 assault rifles fitted with "thermal imaging scopes," making it easy to spot targets even through dense jungle.
If anyone thought to infiltrate and decapitate like in the movies, they’d just end up a laughing stock.
"There are even men from the 10th Mountain Division here," said Bill, a visiting senior agent from the Foreign Affairs Bureau. His hair had already turned white, but his eyes were still sharp.
He noticed a tattoo on the arm of one of the Guards—an "X" formed by two M5 bayonets.
This was the emblem of the "10th Mountain Division," a key force of the Star Alliance Country. Evidently, they had been recruited by the drug lord after retiring.
The entire Drug Lord Guard consisted of such elite soldiers.
Bill didn’t have to wait long before the estate’s owner quickly returned.
As soon as Benjamin stepped out of the car, all the Guards at the estate saluted simultaneously with much pomp and circumstance.
Bill stepped forward with a smile and said, "Old buddy, you have a very loyal army."
Benjamin embraced him, saying modestly,
"A million dollars a year in salary buys a fair bit of loyalty. Come, try one of my cigars."
The two old men entered the cigar room in friendly conversation, seemingly intimate.
Benjamin’s face was all smiles, but inwardly he was wound tight.
Compared to Bill, he felt as pure as a newborn baby!
Once seated, Bill began nostalgically,
"Do you remember, the first time you came to see me, carrying a briefcase... I thought it was filled with cash."
Benjamin laughed and replied, "If it had been cash, I’d be dead by now."
"Exactly," Bill didn’t hide this fact:
"I was younger then; I needed power, I needed promotion. If you’d brought a case full of cash, I’d have arrested you without a second thought. But you’re a smart man... your case contained the military deployment of the Steel Alliance."
Back then, the two strongest nations of Blue Star were clashing in Latin America.
Unlike his counterparts who only stuffed pockets with money, Benjamin seized the opportunity to prove his worth.
He helped the Foreign Affairs Bureau gather intelligence, transport weapons, and kill opponents...
Turning this land into the Star Alliance Country’s backyard, thereby gaining the support of the Foreign Affairs Bureau and building his own drug empire.
This was a feat from Benjamin’s youth that he still took great pride in.
But as the Steel Alliance crumbled, the Foreign Affairs Bureau no longer needed henchmen, they preferred to raise pigs.
At that moment, Bill said with a smile,
"Old buddy, you are a smart man. I hope you can continue to demonstrate this rare quality. By the way, next month’s shipment needs to triple."
"Triple! This isn’t what we agreed upon!"
Benjamin, previously all compliant, suddenly glared, his eyes flicking with the snapped alertness of a wild wolf, as if he might tear his guest to pieces at any moment!
Facing the furious drug lord, Bill remained unafraid, calmly removing his sunglasses and saying,
"Hey, old buddy, you’re a smart man. You know what to do."
Indeed, the drug lord was almost like a king in his domain.
But if he became disobedient, it would only take a drone-fired missile to end that.
Benjamin, of course, knew this, what he really feared was not Bill, but the powerful and ruthless nation standing behind him.
The drug lord quickly regained his composure, meekly saying, "Triple, no problem."
"That’s right, that’s the way to a win-win outcome."
Bill patted the drug lord’s shoulder, clearly pleased with his compliance.
With that, the two reached a pleasant consensus, and Bill prepared to try the cigar worth a thousand dollars a stick.
But just then, the one-eyed man, Simon, came over and said in a deep voice,
"The Minister of Defense’s satellite phone has fallen into enemy hands, and this manor is now exposed."
Similar incidents had occurred not for the first time; Benjamin nonchalantly nodded, ready to relocate.
But Bill, having gained an advantage, wanted to show off a bit; he took out his phone and glanced at it, then said,
"Satellite imagery shows that only a small civilian helicopter is approaching this way; you might be able to save some energy."
The Star Alliance quickly made several calls, then said,
"A guard post has spotted a small helicopter and is preparing to shoot it down."
"Shoot it down."
Benjamin nodded, and then he and Bill lit cigars together.
~~~~~~~~~~~
The drug lord’s defense wasn’t as simple as having his guards surround him.
kilometers from the manor, high posts had already been set up, constantly monitoring the surroundings for any activity.
Lu Li’s helicopter was spotted by the guard posts as soon as it approached.
The drug lord’s guards stationed here did not hesitate to shoulder the "Stinger" man-portable air-defense missile and fired at will!
At a range of 2 kilometers, a missile with intense tail flame came speeding over, estimated to hit in 4 seconds.
With such a commotion, Lu Li of course noticed.
Caught off guard, he focused his gaze on the incoming missile, and his surging spirit condensed into a hammer and smashed it!
The small man-portable missile couldn’t withstand this hit, exploding in the air with a loud bang, leaving only a few wisps of black smoke dispersing.
The drug lord’s guards at the post were puzzled; why had the missile exploded prematurely?
They were loading the second missile, which was wishful thinking, as the Mountain Breaking Sword, following its master’s command, had already shot forth!
At a distance of 2 kilometers, without the support of the master’s spirit, the Flying Sword’s speed was only 200 meters per second, but that was more than enough against ordinary people.
Thwack, thwack - the sounds of bursting, and the four enemies at the guard post exploded like tomatoes under the Flying Sword’s slash.
"I’ve indeed found the right place."
The equipment on the enemies was very familiar, precisely the Drug Lord Guard he had seen the day his father died.
The manor was not far ahead; with a thought from Lu Li, two Puppets jumped directly from the helicopter.
With a loud thud, Ah Da and Zero landed with a thump, creating a shallow crater, then leaped out heading toward the manor.
At the same time, six Flying Swords began to clear the enemies.
The screams in the jungle grew more dense; not wanting to let these souls go, Lu Li had the Kunlun Mirror join the action.
The Magic Treasure only had to pass within 20 meters of the bodies to harvest the souls.
With a succession of blue lights being absorbed into the mirror, the Kunlun Mirror engaged in countless Soul Stealing in a very short time.
Lu Li pondered, he too must learn this skill someday...
Just then, a surprise occurred!
After Zero and Ah Da had wiped out a reinforcement team, their dim blue pupils suddenly brightened, pulling out the Divine Soul and sucking it into their eyes!
"The Puppet Magic Artifacts can perform Soul Extraction!"
These special Magic Artifacts, born of and sustained by souls, had given their master a big surprise right off the bat!
Lu Li quickly made contact through his spirit, focusing intently...
The two Puppets could not only perform Soul Extraction but could also store Divine Souls like the Kunlun Mirror!
This made it possible to "fight and replenish simultaneously," becoming a perpetual motion machine on the battlefield!
"Indeed, after transforming into a Magic Artifact, it becomes something completely different."
"Now to cause a great commotion and incidentally test the effects of fighting an army with Extraordinary Power."
With just a thought, Lu Li commanded his creations to attack towards where most of the people were!
