When Morgan Zoolander spoke in his gentle yet confident tone, the tense atmosphere in the room seemed to ease slightly. His words flowed smoothly and were persuasive, even in the face of Alex's clear rejection and hostility. Morgan maintained a rare calm attitude, as if everything was within his expectations: "Mr. Alex, I can understand... your rejection of the True Worm Sect. For you, the voice of the swarm is like the murmurs of hell, the lies of demons. I respect your view of the world... But, I didn't invite you here to join our sect... On the contrary, I want you to help me with something... And from what I know, for someone like you who craves excitement, these things are surely irresistible temptations."
Morgan's words seemed to conceal deep strategies and plans. Not only did they skillfully ease Alex's hostility, but they also piqued Alex's curiosity about this mysterious meeting. Although Alex harbored deep-rooted distrust towards Morgan and the True Worm Sect, the "irresistible temptations" proposed by Morgan undoubtedly stirred up waves in Alex's mind.
In Morgan's eyes, a hint of cunning can be seen, as if he is carefully selecting each word to achieve maximum persuasive effect. For a seasoned mercenary leader like Alex, this mysterious temptation is undoubtedly a challenge, and perhaps a whole new adventure. Despite coming from a disconcerting source, Morgan's proposal may have stirred up Alex's inner desire for the unknown.
In response to Morgan's words, Alex showed clear disdain, his voice filled with contempt and determination: "No, nothing you have can catch my attention. Even if you offer me money, I don't want it. Sorry, I'm leaving." With that, Alex turned and headed towards the door, each step showing his eagerness to leave this displeasing place.
Morgan's bodyguard saw this scene and was about to step forward to intervene, but Morgan raised his hand to signal them to stop. His voice was slow and calm, as if he didn't care at all about Alex's refusal: "If that's the case... I won't stop you... But Mr. Alex, I'm sure you're curious about the truth on Akula Star planet, aren't you?"
This statement hit Alex's heart like a heavy hammer, and the mention of "Akula Star" made him stop in his tracks. As he turned his head, a flash of anger crossed Alex's eyes as he glared at Morgan, the flames in his eyes almost burning through the other person. "Akula Star," this name undoubtedly touched the most sensitive and least wanted memory in Alex's heart. Morgan's seemingly harmless question had directly hit the deepest pain point in Alex.
Alex's anger was like an erupting volcano as he glared at Morgan, his voice filled with unquestionable commands and fury: "Akula Star... What do you know? You better tell me now!" Each word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, carrying unrestrained emotions.
A nearby guard, clearly unable to tolerate Alex's attitude, showed a look of anger and responded in a deep voice: "Mercenary! Watch your words!" His hands involuntarily clenched, seemingly ready to take action at any moment.
However, such a warning was only adding fuel to the fire for Alex, who was already completely consumed by anger and had lost his rationality. Fearlessly, he retorted with a sharper and more provocative tone, "Shut up!" His eyes were sharp as knives, as if anyone obstructing his search for the truth would become his enemy.
When the guard next to Morgan angrily rushed forward and suddenly threw a punch at Alex, the atmosphere instantly became extremely tense. Anger filled Alex's face as he agilely dodged the oncoming fist like a well-trained warrior. Then, with astonishing speed, he counterattacked, delivering a fierce kick to the guard's left knee, resulting in a dull thud. The guard cried out in pain, losing his balance, and this was the opportunity Alex had been waiting for.
Not giving the other party any chance to catch their breath, Alex took the opportunity to throw a fierce punch at the guard's chin, the force of which made the guard's head snap back in agony. Before the guard could react, Alex had already pinned him to the ground, followed by a satisfying and relentless beating, each punch carrying with it the fury and resentment deep within Alex's heart.
The other two guards in the room instinctively moved to support, but their actions came to an abrupt halt at a gesture from Morgan. Morgan wore a difficult-to-read smile on his face, seemingly intent on letting Alex unleash his anger to the fullest. This was not only a release of Alex's emotions, but also a calculated move on Morgan's part. In this situation, he appeared particularly calm, as if he had foreseen everything that was about to happen.
The guards stopped in their tracks at Morgan's command, showing their displeasure but not daring to disobey. They could only watch silently, their hearts filled with complex emotions. This scene not only demonstrated Alex's bravery and skill as a warrior, but also highlighted Morgan's ability to control the situation.
The guards were powerless against Alex's fierce attack, quickly losing consciousness after a flurry of punches. The entire process was swift and brutal. As Alex slowly stood up, his hands were stained with blood, indicating the intensity of the battle just now. His breathing was slightly heavy, but the fire in his eyes had not diminished. He turned around, his gaze falling on the motionless guard on the floor, then looked up at Morgan still sitting in the chair, wearing a smile on his face.
At this moment, the anger in Alex's heart burned even more fiercely, like a flame fueled by fresh oil. His gaze sharpened as he stared at Morgan, mocking with disdain and challenge, "Third Chief Insect, it seems your guards may need to be replaced, they are too easily defeated." This statement not only belittled Morgan's guard abilities but also challenged his authority.
Morgan's smile seemed to freeze in that moment, but he quickly regained his composure. A hint of assessment and calculation flashed in his eyes. Alex's provocation did not make him appear flustered or angry; instead, it seemed to confirm certain decisions. This confrontation not only showcased Alex's abilities and courage as a warrior but also demonstrated Morgan's calm and calculated approach to challenges. The game between the two was far from over; this was only the beginning.
