Dark Blade: Codename Viper

Three years ago, Lu Chen was expelled from the special forces for “manslaughter” and reduced to working security on the streets. Then a bizarre kidnapping forced him to reactivate his long-buried identity as an agent: “Viper.”

Mission objective: infiltrate the transnational criminal organization Styx and seize the Pandora Chip, which can control global financial markets. But after venturing deep into enemy territory, he discovered that the organization was closely connected to his parents’ “accidental deaths” years ago.

He exposed a traitor’s disguise through subtle facial expressions, shot through bulletproof glass with a modified pistol, and predicted a sniper’s trajectory with his lightning-fast reflexes. With textbook spycraft, Lu Chen carefully navigated the deadly crossfire of gangsters, spies, and traitors.

When he uncovered the chip’s insane “purify humanity” conspiracy, he faced his cruelest choice yet: destroy the chip to save the world, or use it to get his kidnapped younger sister back?

“I’m neither a hero nor a demon.” Lu Chen pulled the trigger. “I’m just a man who’s going to take back, with his own hands, everything he’s lost.”
