Blackfire had just killed the raptor controlled by Preacher Will, and after using another burst of montum, he lunged at another preacher.
His chanical shock blade already swung, and an infernal crimson light flashed in his chanical eye.
"Damn it!" The preacher stared at the executor who had co at him in such a bizarre way, the confident vows he had made before departure evaporating.
On the ground they might still have a chance to fight, but now they were in midair with nowhere to escape.
However, he was, after all, a preacher of the Aurora Animal Assistance Association, and after the initial panic his eyes hardened with vicious intent.
Earlier, when Blackfire killed the raptor attacking Preacher Will, the preacher had quickly forced the raptor to change direction. If he could buy just a little more ti, he could escape the danger.
With that in mind, the preacher took a deep breath. Air poured into his body like the sea being swallowed, his belly bulging like a frightened pufferfish.
In the blink of an eye, he'd turned into a massive, perfectly round balloon.
Just as Blackfire's chanical shock blade was about to strike, the preacher suddenly sprayed an imnsely powerful gust of air at Blackfire. The gust was so strong it ford a wind wall that separated Blackfire from him.
Blackfire could feel the airflow slicing at his body like blades, continuously cutting, but the force wasn't enough to seriously damage his chanical fra.
Despite being inches apart, Blackfire simply couldn't reach him; that final gap was like an impassable chasm.
Finally, the residual hovering montum Blackfire had borrowed from the raptor dissipated, and he began to fall.
Using that small ti lag, the preacher rode the reactive force of his air wall and quickly moved away.
"Hahaha... die!" The preacher looked at Blackfire plumting downward, a grim, triumphant relief in his eyes.
His smile had barely ford when it turned to terror again.
"No..."
The words barely left his mouth when a magenta beam struck his head, instantly exploding his skull.
After piercing the preacher, the magenta beam hit the raptor, and with a terrible cry the bird also tumbled downwards.
With that, Executor Blackfire completed a double kill in midair.
"Hmph!"
Blackfire looked toward Bloodbone and noticed Bloodbone seed to be in trouble.
Blackfire couldn't afford to care about Bloodbone; he had to save himself.
Twisting his body face-first, he stretched out fully, arms wide and legs spread, forming a star-shaped pose.
This maximized his surface area to increase air friction and boost drag.
He locked his gaze on the nearest high-rise; if he could land on it, he could minimize fall injuries.
The building wasn't directly below him but to his right.
Blackfire lowered his right arm and shoulder slightly while raising his left arm and shoulder, increasing drag on the right and reducing it on the left.
His body began drifting rightward, quickly aligning with the building's position.
At the mont of impact, Blackfire curled to protect his head and chest, then slamd onto the rooftop, sending up a cloud of dust.
anwhile, Bloodbone was indeed in trouble high above.
Not far away, a dismbered figure fell, but Bloodbone was wrapped in several streams of electricity that had beco chains around him, tightly binding him so he couldn't attack or even fall properly.
"Damn, how is he controlling electricity?" Bloodbone's vision filled with warnings of energy conflict and overload.
If chanical augntees had a weakness, it was definitely strong current.
Cold Crow watched Bloodbone, bound by the high-voltage electricity he had emitted, sweat beading on his forehead.
He had already seen the other three die; it was impossible not to be shaken.
They had feared these two executors' extraordinary abilities, which was why they had flown up seven to eight hundred ters to command from above. They had never expected the executors to approach them in such absurd ways.
But now, seeing the executor tightly controlled by his electric chains, Cold Crow allowed a faint smile.
"An executor! There must be so incredible secrets on him!"
"However, this isn't the place for interrogation..." Cold Crow glanced toward the four chanical augntees still fighting on the ground.
"Hmph, an executor falling from this height will be either dead or crippled. Those four augntees won't be a threat anymore. This can draw Miller's and the Saint's attention, and it's the perfect ti to interrogate this executor..."
Several thoughts flashed through Cold Crow's mind and he made a decision.
He looked at the restrained executor with anticipation.
"I hope you won't disappoint !"
With that, the peregrine under his control flew in the opposite direction of the zoo.
But as he was about to depart—
Bang—
An armor-piercing round ca up from below and pierced Cold Crow's chest with pinpoint accuracy.
"Ugh..."
Cold Crow stared in disbelief at the blood quickly soaking his chest. He couldn't understand why an attack would co from below when they were seven to eight hundred ters in the air.
As he was shot, the electric chains he had maintained imdiately collapsed.
Bloodbone, whose body had gone haywire under the current, snapped back into his control. He watched Cold Crow being carried away by the peregrine; a cold light flashed in his eyes as he threw his chanical shock blade.
The shock blade spun through the air, its sharp edge slicing Cold Crow diagonally into two halves, blood and innards scattering everywhere.
"No... im...possible!" The last of Cold Crow's consciousness plunged into darkness.
Eagle Eye caught the ejected shell casing in his right hand, while Hyena had already captured images from the scope cara and uploaded them to the Jackal group chat.
Seeing Cold Crow dead, Eagle Eye and Hyena imdiately withdrew.
[Eagle Eye: Targets — all four Cold Crows confird dead, mission complete! Initiating extraction.]
At that mont, a ssage from Shadow popped up in the Jackal group chat.
[Shadow: Attention! Three Ascetics from Humpback Whale are moving toward the fall area of those two executors. Everyone avoid the area.]
——————————————
Northern Wilderness.
Yu Yuan wasn't paying attention to the Jackal group chat because a fierce battle was breaking out not far from him.
Two augntees guarding the Feed Factory were fighting three Ascetics who had co with Humpback Whale.
Dozens of chanical Vanguard Society soldiers in black combat suits around the Feed Factory were assisting the augntees in attacking the three Ascetics.
The Ascetics had beco like molten lava demons, their bodies radiating scorching flas, sprays of fire erupting with each motion.
The two visible chanical Vanguard augntees were visibly struggling.
All combatants inside the Feed Factory had their attention fully drawn to the three Ascetics.
As for Yu Yuan—

The Excellent-grade lock on the supply truck’s compartnt was picked by Yu Yuan in less than two seconds. When the compartnt opened, an entire truckload of supplies ca into view.
Yu Yuan stared at the neatly arranged survival supplies, all in full boxes of food, and brightened.
He quickly entered the compartnt and the supplies disappeared as he moved through, everything disappearing completely.
Within seconds the compartnt was empty and Yu Yuan's figure vanished.
Only a faint, excited voice remained.
"First truck... profit. Thanks to nature's bounty."
