"Captain!" Colin roared in grief and anger, tears of blood streaming down his face.
Lu Ning held down the struggling Colin firmly, calmly pulling out and absorbing the remaining source of mental pollution.
The two sources of pollution intertwined within Lu Ning's body, clashing and colliding violently.
This caused eyeballs to appear on Lu Ning's body surface at times, and at other times, his eyeballs to burst open.
For Lu Ning, it was naturally a scene of being covered in blood.
Lu Ning seemed oblivious to the blood on his body. He got up, walked to Lin Xiao's bones, bent down, and picked up the Crimson Sword.
As soon as he obtained the Crimson Sword, Lu Ning immediately felt an incredibly powerful force surge into his body.
However, as he grasped the Crimson Sword, the blood in his body began to flow out, slowly being absorbed by the Crimson Sword along his arm.
The Crimson Sword was like a traveler who had been thirsty in the desert for many years, and Lu Ning's blood seemed to be sweet rain to it.
However, the rate of blood loss was not fast.
Lu Ning understood that it was because he hadn't fully activated the Crimson Sword yet; otherwise, the rate of energy loss would have been similar to Lin Xiao's.
As Lu Ning picked up the Crimson Sword, Colin, despite his injuries, rushed to Lin Xiao's skeleton.
He knelt before Lin Xiao's bones, clenching his fists, his body trembling, but he couldn't utter a single word.
Lu Ning glanced at Colin and said, "That woman isn't dead yet. Vice Captain, take the Captain's body to the back."
Colin paused, then growled, "Still not dead?!"
He looked up, his eyes bloodshot, filled with anger and hatred.
Lu Ning frowned and said, "Vice Captain, calm down."
Colin took several deep breaths before calming down.
He didn't say anything more, just nodded: "Okay!"
Using his telekinetic powers, he gently picked up Lin Xiao's body, including the shattered hand bones, and then left with the bones.
After taking a few steps, Colin stopped and looked at Lu Ning, saying, "Lu Ning, kill her."
"Um."
Lu Ning had just nodded when he heard a low growl from beside him.
He turned his head and saw a powerful figure from the Mist Bureau whom Lu Ning did not recognize. This figure had completely degenerated and transformed into a humanoid creature with grayish-white mist covering its body.
The humanoid creature seemed to have targeted Lu Ning, and its gray-white mist surged as it lunged towards him.
Lu Ning's figure vanished, and the gray-white mist missed its target.
The next moment, a scarlet sword light flashed past, and the humanoid creature in the gray mist was cut in half.
With just one sword strike, Lu Ning killed the infected man.
Lu Ning looked at the other powerful members of the Mist Bureau and found that their disease processes had stopped.
Li Yihang's expression was ferocious as he struggled to retract the protruding iron blocks on his body.
Yun Rou had returned to normal. She lowered her head and muttered to herself, "I'm mentally sound, I'm mentally sound, I'm mentally sound..."
The others were also constantly trying to save themselves.
In Lu Ning's view, although the mental pollution in the bodies of these powerful members of the Mist Bureau was still very high, it was still a bit short of complete degeneration.
Lu Ning guessed that it might be because Lin Xiao had interrupted Lillian's continuous corruption ability earlier.
He said to Colin, "Vice-Captain, help take the others away as well."
Colin nodded, and using his telekinesis, dragged the unconscious Mist Bureau expert away, his body weakened.
At the same time, Yun Rou and Li Yi also struggled to their feet and began to help Colin.
Just as they stepped out the door, crisp footsteps rang out.
A figure rushed out quickly through the hole in the wall.
It was Lillian.
At this moment, Lillian's severed hands have been restored, and the gruesome wound on her chest is flowing with white wax, which is also rapidly healing.
Her expression wasn't very good, and even her breathing seemed much weaker than before.
Clearly, Lin Xiao's attack just now did have some effect on her.
Lillian's gaze swept around and she saw the crimson sword in Lu Ning's hand.
She revealed a gentle smile: "This sword is now in your hands? It's a pity you're only at the third rank..."
However, as soon as she finished speaking, Lu Ning's flesh and blood exploded, and even half of his bones were blown away, leaving only the bones of his two legs, the bones of his right hand holding the sword, his spine and right side bones, and his head.
The shattered flesh and bones were instantly absorbed by the crimson greatsword.
The greatsword trembled with a thirsty, joyful ecstasy.
Lu Ning's body vanished from the spot in an instant.
When he reappeared, he was already standing in front of Lillian.
The crimson sword slashed down toward Lillian's neck.
Unlike Lin Xiao, Lu Ning even burned his own life and almost two-thirds or more of his flesh and bones.
His physical strength was not as good as Lin Xiao's, and although the enhancements he received were also not as good, Lu Ning had one thing that Lin Xiao did not have.
That is a high level of soul-stirring power!
Moreover, he was not dealing with Lillian at her peak.
Lillian never expected that Lu Ning would burn his life away without even saying a word.
Her expression was one of shock. Faced with Lu Ning's attack, she didn't even have time to dodge and could only defend as before.
However, just like when facing Lin Xiao's attack, the shield formed from the wax blocks was shattered, and Lu Ning's crimson sword, wreathed in blood and white light, struck Lillian's chest, which had not yet fully recovered.
boom!!
Lillian was slashed and sent flying backward again, this time spraying out a lot of blood in mid-air.
Then, she smashed through the wall again and disappeared.
After the attack, Lu Ning's life force dissipated, leaving only his skeleton standing in place, leaning on the crimson sword without falling.
Li Yihang and the others were shocked when they saw this.
“...I’ve never seen this kind of fighting style before!” Li Yihang murmured weakly.
The others nodded in agreement.
Those present were all high-ranking members of the Mist Bureau, and having fought alongside Lu Ning just now, they all knew that Lu Ning could be resurrected.
However, this kind of direct life-risking tactic, exchanging one's own life for someone else's, is completely outside their comprehension.
Even Colin had never seen Lu Ning attack like this.
He glanced at the skeleton beside him and muttered to himself: Captain, it seems that Lu Ning is angry... This is the first time I've seen this kid so furious.
Meanwhile, in the research lab, flesh and blood were growing back on Lu Ning's bones at an extremely rapid pace.
In the time it takes to breathe, almost all of Lu Ning's body, except for a portion of his internal organs and skin, has not recovered.
After two breaths, Lu Ning had fully recovered.
His expression remained calm as he dragged the crimson sword toward the wall that Lillian had smashed through.
With each step he took, a part of Lu Ning's body would crumble, and powerful blood energy surged from the crimson sword.
With another step, Lu Ning's shattered body was restored once again.
This continued until Lu Ning approached the wall.
