For a long time, Wang Xiao was very confident in his regenerative ability, but at this moment, looking at the approaching knife, he couldn't move at all.
And he was clearly aware of one fact - any ability has its limits, and if he was hit by this, he would die.
In a flash, a pure black shadow suddenly gushed out from the ground, quickly wrapping up Wang Xiao like a curtain without thickness and shrinking into the ground of the city wall.
Then the shadow began to move at high speed towards a relatively safe area.
But the sheep-headed man could not hide such thoughts at all. He swung his fist downward with all his might, smashing the ground with the same heavy punch as he had in the primitive fight with the man not long ago.
The city walls near the west gate began to shake slightly at this moment, and many soldiers who were caught off guard were unable to even stand firm.
The blow landed right on the black substance but had no effect on it.
Even though radial cracks had appeared on the city wall centered on the point where the punch landed, the thing was still fleeing. It escaped from his attack range while the goat-headed man looked slightly surprised, and appeared on the other side of the city wall.
Only then did the goat-headed man fully understand the nature of that thing.
Except for the moment when it appeared out of thin air, most of the time the thing was just a pure shadow.
Of course, ordinary physical attacks cannot shatter the shadow, which is something that the mycelium will can understand.
But instead of being angry, a strange expression appeared on its face:
A man who can regenerate at super speed and has a certain similarity to that human, and a human who can transform into a shadow.
If we can analyze their two abilities and utilize the entire ecosystem to reproduce them, then the chances of Mycelium winning will be greatly increased!
In that case, even if this body was burned from the inside out by the raging fire, it would be of no consequence.
Watching the shadow leap out of the ground once again and transform into a half-human, the mycelial will experienced for the first time so intuitively what possessiveness was.
It looked at the two men like a moth in the night seeing a flame.

“Bang!”
"Why haven't they issued any orders yet?! Have their brains been eaten by dogs? Do they have to wait until everyone in the outer city is dead before they can act?!"
In the inner city, in the spire.
Some members of the first and second teams were arranged together in an activity room.
Except for members like "Xingluo" and "Wanjuan" who can cooperate remotely, the rest of the people have gathered here, naturally including the captain of the second team, "Blood Puppet".
It was this super-powered person who just slammed the table and roared.
Although the blood of the "Blood Puppet" has its own ideas, the two have exactly the same stance when it comes to protecting humans.
Because of this, the "Blood Puppet" actually doesn't want to stay here for even a second.
Of course he understood why he was here. It was simply because those congressmen were frightened by the griffins last time and needed to gather Hope City's top combat power around them to ensure that illusory sense of security.
Regardless of the meatball explosion in the outer city or the beast tide that followed, the councillors gave only four words of instruction to the first and second teams: stay put.
This made the "Blood Puppet" sweat profusely. He slammed the table and roared, but it was not enough. He whispered:
"What a bunch of arrogant cowards you are. If there is a breach in the wall, I will go to support you immediately."
The Disaster Core stretched out his finger slightly, pointed at the surveillance camera in the room and whispered:
"Everyone is in a hurry, so please say less."
"Blood Puppet" looked at the superpower who was ranked higher than him with an angry face, and could not understand why the other party was as humble as a wild dog in front of the congressman.
It can even be said that the entire First Team is like this. They have unrivaled power but are willing to follow every order from the Parliament, even to the point of kowtow. This is something he cannot understand at all.
The "Blood Puppet" even thought more than once that if he had more powerful strength, he would definitely transform the entire Hope City from head to toe to sweep away the current lifeless atmosphere and the fear of the outside world.
He is not a power-hungry person, but he always feels that those congressmen who hide their true colors are not worth following. Having been summoned many times, he has no awe of those mysterious operations and even feels more and more disgusted with them.
More than a decade of experience has made "Blood Puppet" disappointed with these people and determined that no one is worthy of his loyalty.
But objectively speaking, although the parliament is rotten, it is not rotten to the core. It has a certain positive effect on maintaining stability in Hope City. This is also one of the reasons why the "Blood Puppet" has not been able to make up his mind.
Another reason is the extremely weak first team.
It can even be said that as long as the first team and the second team unite, the ten seats of parliamentarians may be replaced.
But no matter how he hinted or begged, the members of the first team always pretended to be stupid like children, or were completely unresponsive, just like long-necked birds burying their heads in the sand.
It was as if they had some fatal handle that was firmly grasped by the congressmen and they couldn't even speak it out.
This was the case with Lucas before, and even with a new Aegis, they have hardly changed in this regard.
These guys are like well-trained pets from the old days, and their loyalty to the parliament is totally incomprehensible.
Shaking his head lightly to get rid of those complicated thoughts, "Blood Puppet" stared at the screen in front of him, with no intention of compromising his promise.
If part of the city wall were to collapse, he would immediately stab the dagger in his hand into his heart, allowing his autonomous blood to become the master of his body.
However, at this moment, the video on the main screen was suddenly changed to another battlefield.
After everyone took a closer look, someone determined that it was located roughly in the western part of the outer city area based on the two distinctive factory buildings nearby and the city wall in the background.
"Has the battlefield reached the city?"
The “Blood Puppet” lost his voice and widened his eyes, but an even more outrageous scene appeared in his eyes—
A strange beast that is more than ten meters long and covered in burning vines is fighting with a humanoid creature that is also covered in flames.
With a scream, a pale, curved, thick spike like a rib was being inserted into the body of the strange beast by the humanoid creature.
The moment they saw this scene, not only the "Blood Puppet" but also almost everyone else in the first and second teams widened their eyes and held their breath.
In an instant, countless questions came to my mind:
Why does such a strange beast exist?
Why are they on fire?
The most critical question is -
As high-level officials other than the councillors, everyone present understood that there was no record of this super-powered person in Hope City’s database!
