The black man could no longer make a sound, and his tall figure fell to the ground with a thud, quickly spreading out in a pool of blood.
Lin Nai thought to himself, "This girl is quite strong. She's a level 20 apostle, yet she managed to kill a level 25 martial artist in one move."
Sherry landed on the rooftop where Linna was from a high place and came to Linna's side.
Just as Lin Nai was about to get up and say something, Shirley reached out and pressed her hand against his chest: "Don't move, let me help you heal your wounds."
Lin Nai was taken aback: "Healing?"
"That black man's move was extremely cruel. Even if a high-level superhuman were hit by that move, his internal organs would probably be crushed to pieces by the high-pressure air."
Shirley's eyes were serious as she softly said, "Your life is in danger."
"..." Lin Nai: "...Do I look like I'm in mortal danger?"
"Don't speak." Shirley frowned. "Don't think you're okay just because you look fine. Your internal organs, soul nodes, and meridians must all be... huh?"
As she was talking, the girl suddenly froze.
Because she discovered through her soul power that Lin Nai's soul power nodes and meridians were very healthy and strong, and there were no signs of damage whatsoever.
Sherry was slightly puzzled and examined Linnaeus's internal organs again.
There was no sign of injury...
"That's strange, why do you look like nothing's wrong?"
"...I was perfectly fine to begin with."
Lin Nai stood up: "But I still have to thank you for saving me."
Sherry frowned in thought, staring at Lin Nai for a while before saying, "You are indeed more mysterious than the legends say. A low-level superhuman, you were hit by a powerful attack from a high-level superhuman and remained unharmed. How did you manage to do that? Do you have some kind of magical treasure?"
"It's not convenient to talk about that."
"That's right, I was being presumptuous."
Shirley paused, then lowered her voice: "You need to leave this city immediately. The Gene Corporation has taken control of the city lord of Feder City. These guys have gone mad and don't care at all that the demon army is at the city gates. They will mobilize all the troops in the city to capture you!"
So it really is a gene company...
Lin Nai wondered how things were going with Wan'er.
Strange, logically speaking, so much time has passed, and with Wan'er's strength, she should have already taken over the boss of the gene company.
Why is there still no news after so long?
"Whoosh—"
"Swish swish——"
The sound of rockets shooting out rang out.
Linnaeus and Sherry looked up and saw more than a hundred Night Watchers, equipped with rocket jetpacks and riding flying skateboards, flying in the air and surrounding them!
The leader of the Night's Watch of Fedor was a brown-haired man in his thirties. He flew through the air, raised his knight's longsword, and pointed it at Sherry on the roof: "Captain Sherry, do you know what you're doing? Are you helping this spy from Yan?"
Shirley looked up at the man and said coldly, "You should be thinking about what you're doing. The demon army has already reached the outer ring. Instead of fighting against the alien race and rescuing the people, you're concentrating a large number of troops here to capture a fellow human?"
Several of the night watchmen flying in the sky wore somewhat conflicted and troubled expressions.
The brown-haired man in the lead sneered: "Do I need to teach you such a simple principle as 'to pacify the internal before fighting the external,' Captain Sherry?"
"Since you're all so stubborn, then stop talking nonsense." Sherry swung her huge black scythe, her long ponytail and black trench coat fluttering in the wind: "Come on, all of you come at me at once, I don't care."
The brown-haired man narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "I never expected that even the always upright Captain Sherry would betray the Empire. Then don't blame us former subordinates for being impolite."
"Attention everyone! Bring me Captain Sherry..."
"boom--!!!"
Before he could finish speaking, a deafening roar suddenly erupted from the city lord's building!
Many people were stunned; they probably had never heard such a loud explosion in their lives!
The pavement of nearby streets cracked rapidly...
The earth trembled violently, as if it were an 8.0 magnitude earthquake...
The air itself seemed to be buzzing and vibrating.
The Night Watchman, flying in the air, was disturbed by the air currents and could barely maintain his balance, swaying involuntarily.
"Wha...what's going on??"
"What happened?"
Linnae sensed something and immediately turned his head.
Suddenly, the city lord's building, which was over twenty stories high, exploded!
The roaring demonic energy, like a hundred-meter-tall monster, formed a giant mushroom cloud that rose high into the sky.
The fiery inferno engulfed the entire building!
Linnaeus's pupils contracted.
He sensed Wan'er's demonic energy...
What on earth happened?
The massive explosion of demonic energy completely pulverized and disappeared the original twenty-plus-story building!
Not only that.
The blast wave created by the explosion was more than 20 meters high!
Like a super tsunami, it spread outwards from the center in all directions! It utterly destroyed everything nearby!
Within a three-kilometer radius, all houses, trees, towers, skyscrapers, and various other buildings were instantly destroyed, reduced to rubble...
People saw a light appear...
Soon, all the screams of terror, shouts, and cries of agony, as well as all the sounds in the city, were swallowed up by the light that spread out in an instant!
All was silent...
......
I don't know how much time passed.
"Cough cough... cough cough cough..."
After the tide of the demonic energy explosion subsided, Linna crawled out from a pile of building rubble.
Not far away, Shirley also used a sickle to cut through the concrete slab pressing on her body and crawled out of the ruins.
Shirley stared blankly at the vast, destroyed city.
As the former captain of the city's night watch, she found it hard to accept all of this.
How did it turn out like this?
Linna looked around; all the nearby buildings had been destroyed.
The once towering skyscrapers and bustling commercial districts have all been turned into steel ruins, completely unrecognizable from their original state...
Such terrifying destructive power...
I remember Wan'er saying that if the Myriad Manifestations-level Demon Descendants were to fight, they could destroy a city.
So that means...
At this moment, night finally fell.
She spread her black wings, broke through the lingering smoke, and flew into the air.
