Lin Ye has died once.
At least, that is what the top-secret files of Daxia say.
Eight years ago, he was just an ordinary boy. Eight years later, he had a codename that struck fear into intelligence agencies around the world: Ghost.
Infiltration, assassination, turning agents, decapitation strikes. Once a mission landed in his hands, few people lived to see dawn.
Then, during an assassination mission in an enemy nation, a defector scientist who should have died at his hands told him, “Your mother is still alive.”
Those words made Lin Ye disobey an order for the first time.
Following the trail, he uncovered a link between his parents’ deaths, the three years he had vanished, the first energy tide, and the global war now drawing near. They all pointed to an organization no nation had ever publicly acknowledged: the Twelve Seats.
To make matters worse, there were eight women around him.
An intelligence officer, an enemy agent, a tycoon’s daughter, a top assassin, a female general, a diplomat, a mercenary queen, and a genius scientist.
Of the eight beauties, seven had once tried to kill him.
Only when powerful martial artists entered the battlefield and war erupted across multiple nations did Lin Ye realize that the one who truly wanted him dead had never been any single country.
It was the player behind a game that had been in motion for decades.
Codename: Ghost.
This time, he would flip the entire board.
