Facing Lu Ning who was flying towards him, the muscular giant roared, clenched his fists, and slammed them down on Lu Ning with all his might.

As the muscular giant's fists came crashing down, a white light flashed on Lu Ning's right hand.

Fists collided, a deafening roar followed by the sound of bones breaking and screams of agony.

Lu Ning's body was much smaller than the Muscle Giant's, and his fists were even smaller, but when the two fists collided, the power of the Soul-Shaking Fist was fully unleashed, and the violent force directly shattered the Muscle Giant's bones.

The muscular giant staggered backward under the immense force, and Lu Ning also landed on the ground due to the reaction force.

After landing, he didn't pause for a moment and charged towards the muscle giant again.

With his fists clenched, Lu Ning swung them repeatedly.

The Muscle Giant had the highest defense among the three fourth-tier lesions. It took Lu Ning three punches to shatter the Muscle Giant's chest, and the violent force shattered its internal organs.

Even so, the muscular giant's powerful vitality still made him swing his fists, wanting to fight back.

However, the fist lost its strength just as it approached Lu Ning, and the huge body swayed and fell to the ground.

Lu Ning looked at the three corpses of fourth-level mutated patients on the ground, let out a slight sigh, and then turned to look behind him.

Leaving aside Qiu Yuelin, Wang Yan and Qi Wu already had a deep understanding of Lu Ning's strength.

Seeing Lu Ning kill three fourth-level mutated patients, the two were not too surprised.

Meanwhile, the man from the first division's action team was kneeling in front of the woman who had been slapped away earlier, completely ignoring Lu Ning's situation.

The man's eyes were red-rimmed, and his hands were trembling slightly.

"Xiaoyan, hang in there! Hang in there!"

Lu Ning looked at the woman lying on the ground.

At this moment, blood kept flowing from the corner of the woman's mouth, her face was as pale as paper, and her breath was extremely weak.

She looked at the man with red-rimmed eyes and opened her mouth.

As soon as she opened her mouth, another mouthful of blood gushed out.

The woman laboriously reached out her hand towards the man's face, and the man quickly grasped her hand and moved his face closer.

She swallowed the blood with difficulty, and said in a hoarse, strained voice, "Live... to live."

After saying this, the woman stopped breathing completely.

The man looked at the woman's face, his lips trembling, tears slowly streaming down his face. He opened his mouth, but no sound came out.

He stared intently at the woman, as if he had lost his soul.

Qiu Yuelin and the other two remained silent as they looked at the man.

Qiu Yuelin was young and quite sentimental, so she secretly wiped away her tears.

Wang Yan and Qi Wu had been working in the Awakened Ones circle for many years. Although they had some feelings, they didn't have many other thoughts.

The atmosphere in the entire corridor fell silent.

Lu Ning walked over to the man and calmly said, "She's dead."

The man did not speak.

Lu Ning thought for a moment, then patted him on the shoulder: "I need information."

Upon hearing this, the man's body trembled, then he seemed to come back to his senses.

He sniffed hard, wiped his eyes, slowly lowered the woman's hand, and then looked up at Lu Ning, saying, "Brother, I'm sorry you had to see this!"

Lu Ning shook his head: "It's nothing, it's only human nature."

The man twitched his lips, revealing a smile that was more like a grimace. He said, "I know you. You're Lu Ning, right? Your performance during the last attack on the higher-ups of Happy Kingdom was quite impressive."

Lu Ning nodded: "I am Lu Ning."

Are you asking about the situation at headquarters?

"Hmm, I heard a high-risk soul weapon appeared at headquarters? How did it appear?"

Upon hearing Lu Ning's question, the man's face contorted with anger and hatred: "We've all been deceived. Those bastards from Paradise of Pleasure were deliberately captured. They knew we would confiscate all the Corrupted Incense, which isn't just any ordinary dangerous substance, but a Soul Weapon embryo!"

"A Soul Weapon Embryo?" Lu Ning frowned, thinking of the Soul Weapon Embryo he had seen in the black market at the Tree Bar.

Horcrux embryos are essentially dangerous items, emitting mental radiation, just like Corrupted Incense.

"Could that high-risk soul weapon be transformed from those corrupted incense? But how is that possible? How could such a high-level soul weapon transform so easily?" Qi Wu was somewhat incredulous.

The man gave a wry smile and said, "Normally, a high-level soul weapon couldn't transform so smoothly. But... those members of the Joyful Heaven sacrificed themselves. They used themselves as a cauldron to contain the incense, which ultimately allowed that high-risk soul weapon to be born successfully!"

"What? Sacrifice themselves?" Qiu Yuelin was shocked. "So many members of Happy Paradise sacrificed themselves? They're insane!"

Wang Yan and Qi Wu were also horrified.

Although it is unknown how many members of the Joyful Heaven are there, judging from their words, there should be quite a few. Such a large number of Joyful Heaven members sacrificed themselves at the same time just to create a Soul Weapon.

This is naturally incomprehensible to normal awakened individuals.

The man glanced at the three shocked people, then looked at Lu Ning, who had a calm expression, and said, "Some madness is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people, and most of this madness comes from evil gods and their followers. I think Lu Ning should be able to understand."

Lu Ning was a little confused: "...No, I don't understand either."

The man ignored Lu Ning's answer and continued, "After they sacrificed themselves, the Corrupted Incense Burner appeared. The moment it appeared, powerful mental radiation and corrupting power spread outwards. The first wave of mental radiation directly infected many ordinary people working at headquarters, including medical personnel and defense guards. You must have seen the infected people."
