Chapter 523 Aye's heart, which had been in his throat, suddenly slammed back into his chest...
The lightning outside continued to bombard the vine cocoon.
The outermost vines were continuously carbonized, disintegrated, and turned into fly ash under the scorching heat of the purple lightning.
But inside, new and stronger vines are growing wildly, generating and filling gaps at an even faster rate!
Carbonization, formation, re-carbonization, re-formation...
In the sky, the blinding purple lightning finally began to weaken and dissipate.
The man in the suit cast a detached gaze downwards, savoring the despair and disarray of the ants...
Whoosh—!
A cyan arrow, with a terrifying speed far exceeding its peak condition before being hit, burst forth from the still-lingering embers of lightning, heading straight for the 'man in the suit's' face.
“Nan Nan…”
“Little sister…”
"Miss Lu..."
A gasp of surprise erupted below...
Lu Nange's combat uniform was tattered, revealing several areas of her skin that had been burned by lightning and was now rapidly healing and glowing with a fresh pinkish hue.
Her hair was a little messy, and her face was covered in soot, but her eyes were bright and burning with fighting spirit!
"She really is...surprisingly resilient."
The man in the suit hovered in the air, watching Lu Nange rushing towards him, and for the first time, his eyes flickered noticeably.
It was a kind of fluctuation caused by a disrupted plan and a biased assessment, even mixed with a very faint sense of disbelief that he himself might not have noticed.
He truly hadn't expected that his opponent not only hadn't died, but seemed to have become even stronger.
But this slight fluctuation was instantly covered up.
An accident is just an accident; an ant is still an ant at heart.
However, Lu Nange had no intention of giving him any time to react!
The distance between the two was bridged in the blink of an eye when she unleashed her full power!
She pointed her right hand together, compressing her wind-type ability to its limit to form a semi-transparent vortex, the core of which was wrapped in a dazzling green light bestowed by 'Zhizhi'!
Wind and wood, speed and vitality, two forces of vastly different natures, spiral and intertwine, emitting a deep yet unsettling hum!
"Break!!!"
A clear shout echoed through the air!
The energy gathered at the fingertips collided with the invisible barrier in front of the man in the suit's neck!
clang!
This time, it wasn't a crisp sound, but a thunderous roar like two massive hammers colliding!
The sound was dull and heavy, and the impact spread outwards from the point of impact, instantly clearing away the remaining smoke and dust in the air!
Crack!
The sound of shattering was crystal clear, like glass exploding!
The man in the suit grunted, and his previously stable, floating body was pushed back three or four meters before he regained his balance!
Although he was still suspended in mid-air, that step back completely replaced the indifferent expression on his face with a hint of anger at being offended.
Lu Nange was also thrown back by the recoil, tumbling uncontrollably in the air for a long distance before finally regaining her balance with her wind-based abilities.
She was breathing heavily, her face pale. The supernatural power she possessed, combined with that of Zhizhi, had been almost completely exhausted in that desperate attack.
His right arm was hanging limply in excruciating pain; his face was deathly pale; and blood was trickling from the corner of his mouth...
But she wiped the corner of her mouth with her left hand, looked up, and gazed at her opponent who was no longer flawless.
Lu Nange's lips twitched into a smile, a smile full of provocation...
That smile was a silent cry: Look, so what if it's the sky? It's not like we can't poke a hole in it!
On the ground, the morale, which had been somewhat low due to Lu Nange's danger, was suddenly ignited by boiling oil, bursting into flames!
All the superhumans' eyes turned red, not from fear, but from boiling fighting spirit and frenzied bloodlust!
The offensive instantly became several times more reckless and ferocious!
Even the exhausted low-level ability users seemed to have been given a shot of adrenaline, squeezing out the last bit of energy from their bodies and throwing it at the giant zombie in front of them!
Chi Yanzhou wielded his ice blade to slash away the giant zombie in front of him, then looked up at the figure in the air and felt a great weight lifted from his heart.
A flicker of relief and lingering fear crossed his eyes, only to be quickly replaced by an even stronger killing intent...
He took a deep breath, his voice echoing across the battlefield: "All! Speed up the pace!"
Lu Xici and his group: "All ability users! Speed up! Kill them!"
"Kill!!!" The response came from the superhumans, a deafening roar...
The man in the suit touched his neck, his gaze piercing through the billowing smoke and clamor, locking onto Lu Nange not far away.
"You are very good. Much more interesting than I imagined. But unfortunately, an ant is still just an ant..."
He raised his arms to his sides, and as he did so, the clouds in the sky gathered and spun wildly around him, forming a huge vortex.
On the ground, the giant zombies, including those on the screen in the sky, all simultaneously stopped attacking...
They looked up and emitted a unified and long "ho ho" sound, as if responding to something.
A pervasive aura spread out, enveloping the entire battlefield...
Everyone felt as if a mountain was pressing down on their hearts, making it difficult to breathe and causing their movements to freeze involuntarily.
"The game..." The man in the suit's voice sounded like a final judgment: "It ends here!"
......
On the other side, Lu Beiye and Sang Xu had just sent the last batch of wounded soldiers into the shield in front of Flameheart.
Turning around, I saw the purple lightning that devoured everything explode in mid-air!
"sister--!!"
Lu Beiye's mind went blank for a moment, forgetting all about retreat and orders, and he charged forward!
Wen Qing: "A-Ye, wait for me, I'll go with you. Nan Nan might be injured..."
"Gangzi!" The macaw on Wen Qing's shoulder instantly swelled up.
Lu Beiye flipped onto his back, and Wen Qing climbed on almost simultaneously.
"Ah Ye!" Sang Xu tried to stop him, but Lu Beiye only said, "Uncle, I'm leaving this to you!"
Gangzi flapped his wings and, like an arrow released from a bow, desperately rushed towards the direction of the destructive lightning!
The wind whistled in my ears.
Lu Beiye's heart pounded like a drum.
My heart was pounding in my throat, my eyes were glued to the churning purple lightning, and my palms were sweaty...
Just as they were about to rush into the aftershocks of the lightning—whoosh!
A figure enveloped in green light, like a phoenix rising from the ashes, suddenly tore through the lightning!
It's Lu Nange!
Although they were in a sorry state, their spirit remained undiminished!
Lu Beiye's heart, which had been in his throat, suddenly sank back into his chest. A huge wave of relief and lingering fear brought tears to his eyes...
Wen Qing patted Lu Beiye's back, pointed excitedly ahead, her voice choked with emotion: "Aye...it's Nannan, it's Nannan...Nannan is alright, that's great, Nannan is alright!"
Lu Beiye nodded vigorously, his voice hoarse, "Yes! My sister is alright..."
The child wiped his eyes with the back of his hand and patted Gangzi's neck hard.
"Gangzi, I can do it! Let's finish what we need to do first, then we'll come over!"
With a swift and precise turn, Gangzi carried the two of them back down to the ground battlefield...
