Everyone's attention was drawn to the anonymous figure. The way she had smashed and burnt the monster to a crisp created a deep sense of fear in their hearts.
Moreover, her presence exuded intense pressure. The air around her seed to create an illusionary scene of burning that nearly choked them.
As they wondered who she was, a loud scream pierced the chaos.
"Sister Sophia!"
Gwen's voice cut through abruptly. Her eyes widened in disbelief, and a radiant smile spread
across her face. As if struck by lightning, she vanished from her spot, reappearing in a
heartbeat before the red-haired beauty.
SWISH!
Standing before Sophia, Gwen's face was a mixture of astonishnt and joy. In the next mont, she jumped forward to give her a hug.
Sophia, with a sincere smile, extended her hand to catch her.
"Sister Sophia, what are you doing here? And more importantly, how did you manage to get a permit to be here?"
Sophia's eyes twinkled with amusent at Gwen's surprised expression. Her smile softened into a more serious look as she was bombarded with questions. "What's with all these sudden questions? Aren't you happy to see ?"
"Of course I am!" Gwen chuckled, her face flushed with happiness. Despite the dire circumstances, she felt a surge of relief and warmth seeing the familiar face. It had been only a few days, but it felt like an eternity.
"Did you co alone? Where is Feng Ruoxi?"
Sophia's expression turned regretful. "Sadly, she didn't get the permit as quickly as I did," she answered, shaking her head slightly.
"How so...?" Gwen's question trailed off as loud screams filled the air again.
More monsters began crawling up the walls, their grotesque forms adding to the chaos.
Sophia's eyes hardened, her earlier warmth replaced by a cold, determined glare as she prepared to confront the new threat.
As the screams of the monsters grew louder, more began to crawl up the walls, their grotesque bodies slipping and skittering over each other.
The entire place was engulfed in a cacophony of shrieks and hissing.
Gwen's face tightened with concern, but Sophia's gaze remained calm.
She turned around sharply, and her gaze narrowed at the advancing monsters. With a decisive snap of her fingers, she summoned her Phoenix Martial Spirit.
A shimring aura of fiery red and gold enveloped her, her presence now commanding and majestic. The temperature in the room soared as flas began to dance around her, the fiery essence of the Phoenix taking shape.
Sophia raised her hand high, and with a powerful motion, she cast her attack. A massive wall of fire erupted from her palm, surging toward the wall where the monsters were climbing.
The blazing inferno roared to life, expanding rapidly and engulfing the area.
The wall of ice that was still in place suddenly exploded outward shooting out sharp shreds of pieces that lodged deep into the monsters.
The wall of fire blazed with intense heat, its flas licking and consuming everything in its path. The monsters recoiled in fear, their hissing turning to panicked cries. The slimy creatures and skitter beasts hesitated, their eyes wide with terror as the searing heat of the fire wall kept them at bay.
The inferno crackled and roared, forming an impenetrable barrier that burned away the advancing monsters.
They writhed and shrieked, their forms blackening and disintegrating under the relentless blaze. The monstrous tide was halted, their attempts to cross the wall of fire proving futile. Gwen watched in awe, her earlier happiness montarily eclipsed by the sheer power and precision of Sophia's attack. The fiery barrier held strong, turning back the monstrous horde and securing a temporary reprieve from the onslaught.
Sophia's eyes remained focused and unyielding as the flas roared around her.
The place was illuminated by the fiery glow, casting long shadows and revealing the true extent of her formidable strength.
Her presence turns things around abruptly, startling everyone.
...
On the above platform, where the commander stood in place.
"I have seen her sowhere but I can't rember her," Caron muttered rubbing his chin. That red hair and the fire Phoenix looked similar to Feng but as far he rembered there wasn't certainly any woman like that cause her face looked more like Arican British compared to Feng who carries Chinese genes.
"She is Leon's girlfriend, Sophia.."Irina muttered, titling her and then wondering if sothing was looking around.
"It's weird...How did she reach here quickly...She isn't in the army so she can only co here from the rcenary quota but it was a strenuous process to go through that."
It may not look like but one-third of the force here ca from rcenaries. Though the risk was great, so was the reward. If anyone died here, the Federation would take care of the family for the next two generations, and if your child had roots he or she could attend Martial Arts school for free.
So, the rcenary chosen for support had to go through a long process of selection. That's why she was worried about Sophia because if she appeared here without permission that might create unnecessary trouble.
"That's because she is his girlfriend..."
"Huh!"
"Hun!"
Irina and Caron made a bewildered expression and took a look at Mac's causal expression.
"What did you say?"Caron asked again, wondering if he had heard sothing wrong.
"As I said, her application was passed as soon as they saw her after all who would dare to delay," Mac chuckled and gave Irina a mocking glance.
"Nowadays people already consider your son as the uncrowned Crown Prince of the
Federation. Who would dare to offend him?"
"So, as the person who is soon going to be wife, the higher-up had already instructed us to
not offend. An uncrowned crown Princess for the Prince."
Irina's face burnt badly and almost beca red in embarrassnt. However, she squeezed her
lips and answered.
"It's all because of his capability."
Caron and Mac's lips twitched hearing this. However, they didn't belittle her cause the girl surely deserves her tittle.
