The girl with white hair and red eyes is serious about revenge

"They are already waiting for us," Evans said, "right at the door of the mansion. [Leader], what are you going to do next?"

As the shuttle got closer to the mansion, Pace saw the investigators guarding the door of the mansion at a glance.

To his surprise, a familiar figure was standing at the head of the group of soldiers wearing giant armor.

That is Venia Irenforno, the current Iron Lord.

"..."

Pace was silent for a moment. He looked quietly at Venia's face, which was slightly blurred in the wind and snow, and said:

"I'll confront him and sort it out."

"Okay," Evans said lazily, "The hive will follow you, so make the most of it."

At this moment, at the door of Monark's mansion, Venia Irenforno looked up at the approaching shuttle with a wicked smile on his face.

"Since you have fallen into my trap, there is no reason for me to be polite to you..."

Venia waved his hand casually, and the investigators immediately loaded their weapons and aimed at the shuttle hovering in the sky.

"Just right, we still have some accounts to settle."

"..."

The wind and snow on Wanren Mountain are still fierce.

......

Extra) "Until the top of the snowy peak" (Part 2)

"Om————"

The hatch opened, and Pace stepped out of the shuttle and onto the soft snow.

Once again, he stepped onto the snow of Wanren Mountain, the snow of his hometown.

It would be nice if I came back for vacation, but it's a pity... there are too many things that spoil the view...

"..."

Looking at the entrance of Monark Mansion, Pace immediately met eyes with the leader Venia Irenforno, their black eyes facing each other.

The guy still had a nasty smile on his face, and the gold-rimmed [Prototype-09 "Gold Vein"] wrapped around his not-so-strong body made him look quite imposing.

He was carrying a huge cold steel axe on his back. Pace recognized it as the weapon that once belonged to the Iron Lord Mikhail Irenfono, and couldn't help but frowned slightly.

As expected...it can't be wrong...

The axe had belonged to Lazar the Wolf Lord, and the Thebits had a custom of taking spoils of war.

Whoever killed Mikhail would surely take the axe as a claim of victory.

If someone else really killed Mikhail, how could the axe fall into Venia's hands?

"..."

As Pace stepped off the plane, countless "Swarm E-03" combat robots followed behind him, holding federal-made rifles in their hands.

After all ground forces were deployed, the shuttle closed its hatch, then slowly flew up and hovered in the air.

With this air threat, the negotiation process will go more smoothly.

"..."

Walking on the snow, Pace slowly moved towards Venia, his black pupils flashing with fire in the wind and snow.

As Pace approached, the investigators behind Venia raised their weapons and aimed at him.

“Just stop there.”

Venia spoke frivolously, with a smile on his face but not his true intention.

Pace did not listen to his words, but continued to move forward, walking until he was less than five meters away from the new Iron Lord.

Perhaps out of fear of the "swarm" behind Pace, no investigator opened fire, but only stared at the movements of the combat robots.

"Venya Irenforno," Pace's voice was calm, "how are you going to plead guilty?"

"Confess?" Venia raised his eyebrows. "Your family plotted to murder my father. This is an established fact."

"It seems that your father never taught you how to speak properly before he died."

Pace's voice remained calm, and even through the wind and snow, the light in his black eyes still flickered.

"I'll ask you again, how are you going to plead guilty?"

He grasped the axe handle at his waist with his hand. Seeing this, the commander behind Venia became agitated again, and countless guns were pointed at Pace.

Facing such a calm Pace, Venia frowned, and seemed to be at a loss as to how to respond.

But soon, he showed that annoying smile again and said in an extremely frivolous voice:

"Pace Monarch, you have long been stripped of your Thebite identity and are a defector from the Blood and Steel War. What qualifications do you have to speak here?"

"Oh? Then why don't you just shoot me and drive me out as an alien?"

"you..."

Venia subconsciously wanted to get angry, but he realized that he was now the Iron Lord and had to maintain his dignity.

Using all his strength, he put on that frivolous smile again and said:

"I am not as barbaric as my father. If you agree, I am willing to give you a small chance."

"Your father knew how to fulfill his oath," Pesce said calmly. "He lost the Battle of Blood and Steel and restored my identity as a Thebite."

"That's his oath, it's none of my business!" Venia was furious. "Listen carefully to what I say. I'm willing to give you a chance. Do you want it or not?"

Seeing his angry look, Pace chuckled disdainfully.

[Iron Lord]? This guy? He's not even worthy of being cannon fodder.

What we really need to be wary of are Wilkin's fangs, they may appear at any time...

Thinking of this, Pace closed his eyes and briefly considered his strategy.

After a few seconds, he said:

"The Vans and Monarch family guys, where are they?"

Hearing Pace's question, Venia's face was startled, and then he quickly revealed a smug smile:

"Oh, you're just thinking about those criminals now?"

"Where are they?" Pace remained calm.

"In the Iron Fortress," Venia showed a disgusting smile, "the traitor who assassinated my father is being tortured... Hehe, guess how long he can hold on? I tell you... if..."

"Give me proof," Pace said without panicking, "I want to see proof."

Venia's mouth twitched. He didn't expect Pace to remain calm. He even stuttered for a moment:

"Why...why should I give it to you..."

"I understand," Pace nodded, "In that case, tell your people to move aside. I want to take back the mansion."

When he said this, his tone was still calm, but there was an aura that was invisible to the naked eye that blossomed out, making Venia even a little afraid for a moment.

What followed was anger - why could the offspring of a loser be so arrogant?

Obviously I am the Iron Lord, I am the Lord of Thebit...

"...Oh..."

Venia lowered his head and clenched his fists.

When he raised his head again, the smile on his face became more obvious:

"I see you're also missing a hand...which means you're not stronger than me."

"You can try," Pace said calmly, "Why not?"

"Come on then...Come on..."

Venia said as he stepped back, letting the investigators cover him:

"Fire! Kill this traitor! Kill him!"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the investigators responded immediately, ready to overwhelm Pace with a hail of bullets.

But Pace calmly raised one hand and clenched it into a fist:

"Evans."

"Boom, boom, boom, boom -"

As a hail of azure tracer bullets descended, the shuttle's two energy-powered machine guns instantly tore apart the investigators in the front row, turning them into minced meat mixed with iron pieces.

At the same time, all the "Hive E-03" robots raised their weapons and fired at the investigators:

"Da da da da——"

In the chaos, Pace looked around calmly and saw Venia fleeing towards the Monark Mansion.

He pressed a few buttons on the arm terminal, and a drone in the swarm flew to a position higher than the manor gate.

Then, Pace fired a factor energy grappling hook at the drone—

"clang!"

The grappling hook hit the drone, and Pace activated it again. A line of factor energy gravity pulled him into the air, over the gate and the still resisting investigator.

"thump."

After landing on the snow-covered ground of the manor, Pace raised his head and locked onto Venia's back.

He quickly pulled out a highly modular smart pistol from his waist and pulled the trigger without even aiming:

"Snapped!"

"what!"

Not far away, Venia let out a wail, and he staggered into the gate of the mansion, leaving a trail of blood behind him.

Seeing this, Pace put away his pistol and quickly chased after him.

......

Extra) "Until the top of the snowy peak" (Part 3)

After the gate was opened, a line of three or four giant armored soldiers came forward. They raised their guns and aimed them at Pace.

"Boom boom boom——"

The fan-shaped projectiles from the shotgun were blocked by Pace's factor shield. He clapped his arms without panic, and the micro-missile launcher on his shoulder burst into blue light.

"Pah, pah, pah, pah—"

The rain of micro-missiles tore through the investigators' line. Pace quickly passed by them and executed the guy who was still alive with an axe.

The lobby of the Monarch Mansion had been completely transformed by them into something resembling a civil air defense facility. The once tidy lobby was made a mess by countless bunkers, and the windows were roughly welded shut with steel plates, allowing almost no natural light to penetrate.

Behind the bunkers, one investigator after another was aiming their guns at the gate. The moment they saw Pace, they all pulled the trigger.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom -"

Seeing that the bullet was about to hit Pace, the latter bent his arm and unfolded a red barrier——

"Om."

[One-way Factor Shield] blocked the hail of bullets and created a safe fan-shaped space for Pace.

Taking this opportunity, Pace quickly pressed the buttons on the screen on his arm to mark the locations of the bunkers one by one.

When he was done, he called over the radio:

"Evans, fire support."

"receive."

Just a few seconds after the order was issued, a loud engine noise approached the mansion, causing the investigators to turn their heads subconsciously.

Then, the azure-blue factor-energy machine gun tore through the walls of the mansion and swept the locations marked by Pace:
