"Is she... scared out of her wits?"

At the meeting, the crowd was completely baffled by Hera's sudden remark.

Logically speaking, Hera should be the one who's afraid right now, but these words actually came from Hera's mouth.

This led the crowd to believe that Hera had been terrified.

In the basement.

Several of the guards, who had not yet completely lost their lives, lay in pools of blood as they listened to Hera's words.

Suddenly, it felt as if the thread of life had been stirred.

The extreme fear rendered them speechless; they could only feel their lives slipping away, trembling as they gazed at Hera.

"Afraid? Sorry, I've never been afraid in my life."

Standing on the stage, Liu Ruqing's tone remained unchanged, showing no fear whatsoever.

"Oh, do you have any last words?"

Although Hera didn't believe that the other person wasn't afraid at all, she didn't want to argue with her.

Those around on stage have confirmed that Hera was indeed terrified.

How can you be so sure that I will definitely die?

"You can't beat me, and right now I can beat you to death with just a flick of my wrist."

Having said that, Hera, who was in the basement, took a step forward, then reached out and flipped the desk between the two of them away, which then crashed heavily against the wall and scattered all over the floor.

Liu Ruqing's face showed no fear whatsoever; instead, a smug smile slowly crept onto her face.

"This time, I did underestimate your intelligence, but I didn't bet wrong about your habits."

Hera blinked, then withdrew her hand, which was about to crush the other person's, wanting to hear what she had to say.

Liu Ruqing slowly extended two fingers. "I've taken two layers of insurance. The first is that I'm betting you'll be tricked into coming here."

"The second layer is betting that after you discover I want to kill you, you will come to me and want to wipe me out directly."

"It's clear that my second bet was right."

"Since I guessed you came here to kill me, then I was definitely prepared..."

Click—!!!

suddenly.

The huge floor-to-ceiling window shattered with a crash, and flying shards of glass cut those near the window, eliciting screams.

A middle-aged man with blood on his hands crashed through a window and flew backwards into the meeting hall.

After falling heavily to the ground, he quickly rolled over twice to stand up and protect Hera.

When middle-aged men see Liu Ruqing on stage, who exudes the aura of a domineering CEO and practically has "I am the leader" written all over her face.

He quickly pointed the gun at the other party.

“That’s not the real thing, that’s just a fake,” Hera warned.

Yu Liu paused for a moment, then looked out the window and clenched her teeth.

"We're in trouble..."

"They hired the most powerful mercenaries, the Red Scarf."

"Is it that impressive?"

“Extremely impressive!” Yu Liu said decisively, his eyes showing an unprecedented seriousness.

"He is the only human in the world with ultimate combat power who does not belong to any faction!"

“Three years ago, he fought with Ye Linwan, a core member of our Light God Society, and cut off one of her spider legs.”

"And it's also rumored that... he once fought against two of the Five Calamities."

"In terms of achievements, he is undoubtedly the strongest human being!"

Hera could clearly sense that Yu Liu's usually composed voice was starting to tremble slightly as he finished speaking.

A thick layer of cold sweat streamed down his forehead, mingling with his blood.

Hera and Yuliu looked at the broken window.

Under their gaze, a young man with large, colorful wings slowly emerged from the night sky.

Step inside through the broken window.

In his left hand he held a red heart made of pixels, while in his right hand he gripped a seemingly ordinary pixelated knife.

The scarf around his neck was now extremely loose, revealing his entire face.

Hera was stunned for a moment when she saw the other person's face.

[Blood Scarf] He frowned slightly as he looked at the crowd around him who had been cut by broken glass.

Then, from the pixelated heart in his hand, several green pixelated bandages slowly floated out.

His wounds healed immediately after coming into contact with the injured people.

Seeing this, Yu Liu seemed to understand something.

He immediately pulled out his last remaining grenade, grabbed the pin, and shouted at [Blood Scarf].

"Let us leave, or I'll detonate a grenade right now and kill everyone here!"

"Heh... that's really a despicable tactic."

Standing on the stage, Liu Ruqing smiled disdainfully, but a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes.

Because in the basement, she found Hera standing there quietly, unmoved.

Logically speaking, at this point, Liu Ruqing's life should have been used as leverage.

Is she so confident that she can defeat the Blood Scarf with the power of a clone?

[Blood Scarf] Hearing Yu Liu's words and seeing the fragmentation grenade in his hand, [Blood Scarf] froze in his tracks.

Seeing the other party's reaction, Yu Liu smiled inwardly, knowing that he had made the right bet.

"Now...right now..."

Clang—!

An explosive metallic clang rang out from behind Yu Liu.

He turned around in horror and discovered that three white spears made of pixels had appeared behind him at some point.

But it was immediately stopped by the metal spikes that Hera grew from her body.

Without Hera, Yuliu might already be a corpse by now.
