These monsters from afar had never seen such a horrific way of dying for their companions.
They all took off running, trying to escape, abandoning even the delicious 'food' they were holding in their hands, just wanting to leave.
Several giant monsters, seeing the high-rise buildings inside the Bright Moon Base, decided to hide and ran over.
At this moment, a spatial shield with a radius of fifty meters descended from the sky, trapping all the level four and five monsters that were trying to escape inside.
Wearing a white uniform, Xinghe used a movable spatial barrier to slowly float down beside Gu Mingyue.
His sparse black hair fluttered slightly as it fell, revealing his smooth, full forehead and handsome features below.
"I've already subdued these humanoid monsters, you can kill them as you please!"
Xinghe's voice was warm and pleasant, but also carried a hint of helplessness and compromise.
Gu Mingyue glanced at him, a smile playing on her lips, and then arrogantly raised the vampire sword in her hand to slash at the monsters who were pounding on the spatial shield but couldn't escape.
...
Inside the metal cage of the Bright Moon Base, the Angelic Lord, listening to the deafening roars of artillery fire and the howls of monsters outside, regained a sliver of his sanity.
"Aren't you worried about your companions outside?" he asked, his eyes looking over the metal bars at the guards watching over them.
This underground golden cage had no windows. The guards looked at the metal walls that resonated with the sound of gunfire, their hearts trembling along with the noise, but their faces remained expressionless.
The guard gave the angel leader a cold look and said, "Don't worry, with our boss here, those monsters are nothing to fear."
The angel leader keenly caught the word "monster" in the guard's mouth and immediately became excited. Even though his limbs were crippled, he used his head and torso to climb and twist on the ground until he reached the vicinity of the railing.
His bloodied face, covered in wind blade wounds, revealed a slightly eccentric expression.
“Monster, the monster you speak of is a servant of our God. It is because you imprisoned me that the God is enraged and has sent down divine punishment.”
He raised his chin, pointed to the latch on the bars, and said seductively, "Now, open the cell door and release me. Maybe I can communicate with God and ask Him to let you go."
If the angelic leader were still dressed in his solemn black robes, with his features perfectly proportioned, as he had a few days ago, he might still have a chance of winning.
However, his face was covered in bloodstains from Lu Qingchen's wind blades, and his limbs were crippled. He lay on the ground like a bloated worm.
It really doesn't have much credibility.
The guard merely glanced at him disdainfully and said coldly, "Ha! A god, my foot!"
"Look at you now, you piece of trash! If your god really had any thoughts, he would have come out to help you defeat us the moment before you got injured, and he might have been locked up here by our boss."
Even with the appearance of humanoid monsters and the Dark Realm, this guardian remained a staunch materialist and did not believe in the God spoken of by the Angelic Leader.
“That was God’s test for me. He was tempering my will through hardship. Now He has found that my will is firm, that I have always adhered to His thoughts, and that I have been working hard to punish sinners. He has sent out God’s servants to rescue me.”
His cunning eyes darted around in their bloodshot sockets as he continued to bewitch: "The God is angry now. This is your last chance. If you don't let me go, you will all be devoured by the humanoid monsters outside. None of you will survive."
"Do you want the entire Bright Moon Base to be destroyed in your hands?" He raised his voice, applying slight pressure.
The angel leader spoke with such conviction that the guards watching over him were momentarily persuaded to let him out.
Then he reached into his slightly bulging trouser pocket.
When the Angelic Leader saw this scene, the wicked smile on his lips almost reached his ears.
If given the chance to escape, he certainly wouldn't waste time on pleasure; he would spend all his time recruiting followers.
One day, he will return here and reclaim everything he never got here.
His mind flashed back to Gu Mingyue's flamboyant and beautiful face, and Lu Qingchen's unparalleled beauty.
He was so angry that he almost crushed all the remaining roots of his teeth.
Just when he thought he could escape, the guard, seeing his expectant look, took out a white flour pancake filled with chicken and held it to his mouth.
"What are you doing?" The Angelic Leader looked at the white flatbread in front of his mouth. The flatbread was clearly made of very fine white flour and contained chicken strips coated with rich seasonings.
If someone had offered him such a precious apocalyptic delicacy a few days before he was imprisoned, he would have already drooled over it and accepted it.
But all he wants now is to escape; he wants to make a comeback!
The guard, with an honest expression, said, "I brought you food! This flatbread will make your stomach feel better. Maybe then the god you're talking about will give you some leeway."
The angelic leader was enraged by his sincere tone and expression, and roared, "Who wants to eat the food of you disgusting sinners? What I want is the key to open this cell, do you understand what a key is?!"
"Even if you give me ten of these chicken patties, the God won't spare you if you don't let me out!"
Upon hearing that this angelic leader was shamelessly asking him for the key, the guard's face immediately fell, and he took back the chicken patty, wrapped it up, and put it back in his pocket.
"Never mind if you don't want to eat it. I'll put it away and eat it myself later."
"You want the key?" The guard shrugged, looking innocent. "I don't have one. The people in this cell don't have keys, and the people who have keys aren't here with the cell."
"What? You actually have this kind of operation?" The Angelic Leader was both surprised and furious. Helpless, he could only glare fiercely at the guard, trying to kill him with his eyes!
Upon hearing this, the guard immediately raised a proud look in his eyes: "Hehe, it was all our boss's idea. She said this is the safest way."
“Even the guards here don’t have any metal-based superpowers!” the guard added.
The angelic leader was so enraged that he vomited blood. Looking at the metal railings that were as thick as his thighs, he could only helplessly curse them.
The curse will surely be cast upon the Moonlit Base by the humanoid monsters outside, and Gu Mingyue and all her base members will die in the monsters' mouths.
But things didn't go as planned. Outside the cage, Gu Mingyue was wielding the Bloodsucking Sword, killing monsters with increasing gusto, and giant monsters kept collapsing, smashing the road.
Even the most defensive spiked monsters would scream and be drained dry if they were hit by Gu Mingyue's blade.
Golden crescent-shaped throwing knives danced like butterflies in the starry sky within the space shield, piercing straight into the eyes of the monsters and extracting their crystal cores.
The gray liquid inside the vampire sword slowly seeped into Gu Mingyue's hands, and the dangerous red light gradually spread to Gu Mingyue's iris.
By this time, Gu Mingyue had already drained the life force of thirty-two giant monsters and more than eighty spiked monsters. The monsters in the base were so terrified by her killing that they all fled outwards.
"Mingyue, that's enough. The remaining monsters are no longer a threat." Xinghe's worried voice reached Gu Mingyue's ears.
