From high above, on the roof of a neighbouring office building, we looked down upon the hot springs inn. Even from where we stood, we could feel the despair and terror oozing from its once-idyllic walls. Faint groans of won, coupled with the tortured cries of the n, filled the hellscape beneath us.
Based on Aunty Xinqings information, that tri-colored hoodlum sohow managed to scrounge up a few dozen lackeys to follow his bidding. Since yesterday, he had begun searching for food, and had accumulated quite a stockpile for himself. A fair bit of that food ca from robbing the survivors, of whom so of the n even joined his ranks. As for those who couldnt bring themselves to do so, their fates were naturally sealed.
After all, for a scumbag like him, he did not really need the n. He only wanted won. Young, beautiful won. Whether it was for his own relief or as a reward for his lackeys, won filled the perfect role.
Look after Lixiang for , Ill take care of them myself.
Good luck, big brother, make sure to **** them up good! Qiaoqiaos interest was imdiately piqued when she heard I was about to charge in alone.
Qiaoqiao! A girl shouldnt use such language! Bitong chided the little girl.
Okay
Honestly, I would love to **** them up real good too. But I definitely wasnt going to say that out loud -that would ruin my image.
Punishing those evildoers is a way of protecting the innocents. I will make sure that none of them escape. The words were different, but the aning was ultimately the sa.
I turned towards Floater. Floater, I need you to surround the inn with your detachable bits. If you see any of the bad guys try to escape, kill them.
But what if so innocent survivors get killed by accident? Qiaoqiao suddenly asked, not at all affected by her earlier scolding. Once big brother starts fighting, Im sure the survivors will try to escape during the chaos.
Those lackeys are quite easy to spot, Im sure no one here will make a mistake. I pointed at one of the balconies where a lackey stood watch. See that, their hairstyles should all be as garish as that hoodlum. Probably with earrings and so form of outlandish dressing. Clearly, not a decent person.
Yeah. Those bad people look so stupid. Qiaoqiao nodded in agreent. They dont seem to have any exosuits either. If we all go down, we can block the exits together.
No. Lixiang still doesnt have an exosuit. I need you all to guard her, in case of an ergency. Those undead are getting stronger by the second. So can fly, and so can even tunnel through the earth. Who knows what other tricks they have up their sleeves. Ill take care of those underlings in the inn. Sending too many people might even alarm them unnecessarily. Wouldnt want them to start using the hostages in a fit of desperation.
I climbed atop the ledge, back faced towards the girls. Floater, Ill leave the periter to you. Dont let a single one escape.
Having said that, I jumped off the roof. The winds around roared as I plunged downwards. All around , the scenery changed faster than even my eyes could register.
Ten ters above ground, I suddenly spread open my wings, soaring towards the lobby of the inn.
BANG!!!
A deafening explosion later, I was officially in the inn. The wooden walls of this traditional inn were no hindrance for at all as I ramd right through. The fragnts rained down amidst a cloud of dust that blanketed the room. Had I been none the wiser, I would have thought that a bomb had just gone off.
Whos there!
The lobby was guarded by three underlings, each ard with a gun that was most likely stolen from a policeman. These weapons were definitely a threat, but only if they were able to hit in the first place.
I did not answer them. With the dust and fragnts still obscuring their vision, I swung Icy Inferno at them in a mighty arc of ice and fire. Before they could even point their guns at , their heads had already left their shoulders. They did not even have the ti to scream or feel pain.
Justice has been served I coldly spat at their corpses before advancing further into the inn.
According to Aunty Xinqings data, these three were guilty of holding captive over a dozen won. Had it not been for this unprecedented crisis, such scum would have already been brought to justice.
Unfortunately, the crisis had proved to be a fortuitous turn of events for evildoers like them. While everyone was suffering, they seed to have been living an even better life than before. An existence like that could only be described as twisted, just like Southern Plains in its current state
I quickened my pace as I strode through the inn. From ti to ti, a gun-wielding lackey would try to stop , but they were all t with the steely justice of Icy Inferno.
Icy Infernos edge was so sharp it could kill without drawing blood. Coupled with my long-ranged magical abilities and unearthly speed, none of them even got a good look at before they died.
Magnificent.
Just as the last of the lackeys were taken care of, a steady clapping suddenly rang out from behind .
The source was a man with greyish pupils, hair dyed in red, yellow, and orange. He was dressed in a pair of boxer shorts and an open shirt that revealed his bare chest fully as he stood before one of the suite rooms in the inn.
He smirked as he slowly clapped his hands. All the while, his eyes never left my body hateful, how I wish I could lop his head right this instant!
Yet even though I had already prepared myself for this, when I finally got a close look at his face, I couldnt help but be surprised anyway. So it is you.
Hah, I bet you never expected to survive, did you? As he said that, his eyes travelled along to my wings. So you have been chosen by the new world as well, I see. Rather, that is only to be expected. Still, I have to admit that youre strong. Decisive. Ruthless. I like that.
Disgusting. Every second he laid his eyes on , I could feel my body getting defiled. Finally I could take it no longer. Die!
Protect !
At the sa ti as I swung Icy Inferno, the tri-colored hoodlum beat a well-prepared retreat. A second later, a giant silhouette burst out of the ground. It was a human-shaped hand ford out of countless bones
