"This is too far!"
Zhang Chen ran three kilometers in one breath. Thanks to his powerful physique, he didn't feel tired at all.
But the giant hand he saw earlier seemed to be just a stone's throw away, yet in reality, as he ran, he realized how distant it truly was.
He ran for a long time, but it felt like the distance hadn't closed much.
After running for a while longer, his path was blocked by two collapsed buildings.
If he had to go around them, it would definitely take some effort. Moreover, the entire city was in such a state of ruins and rubble everywhere, so he might encounter other problems.
Therefore, Zhang Chen decided to go through the two buildings.
As soon as he entered the building, he felt the surrounding air instantly drop by a few degrees.
Mo Ran followed beside him, her sharp claws on her paws never retracted, always staying alert.
It seemed she also sensed the danger here.
For safety, Zhang Chen activated Absolute Vision.
However, the spiritual energy within the building was very chaotic, and Absolute Vision could only see a very small area.
There was a first-order demon spirit in the room to the left, not worth mentioning, just walk past it.
There was also a first-order demon spirit hiding in the corner to the front right...
Suddenly, a mass of blue energy rapidly approached Zhang Chen. Not far behind him, there was a third-order demon spirit!
Zhang Chen deactivated Absolute Vision, and soon, a girl appeared before Zhang Chen in a state of panic.
She had the phoenix academy badge pinned to her chest, short hair, and big eyes. She was the girl sitting behind Zhang Chen on the bus.
"Quick, run!"
The girl rushed over and blurted out these words.
"It's alright, I'm here, don't be afraid!"
Zhang Chen said with a slight smile.
The girl gave Zhang Chen a look as if he were an idiot, then didn't stop her feet and continued to run forward.
In her opinion, this man was definitely sick!
What ability could a mere high school graduate have?
The monster that she, a talented student from Phoenix Academy, couldn't defeat, this young man actually thought he could?
She had already been kind enough not to sneak away and leave him as a scapegoat.
This young man was actually trying to show off at this critical moment of life and death! He was crazy!
"Ah!"
The girl had only run a few steps before she suddenly screamed and sat on the ground.
In front of her stood a woman in a white robe. Her messy long hair hung down to her thighs. She lowered her head, completely obscuring her face.
In this dim light, the sudden appearance of someone in the corridor was indeed quite frightening.
"It's over, it's too late, they've caught up!"
The girl, terrified, quickly got up and hid behind Zhang Chen.
She didn't actually believe that Zhang Chen had the ability to eliminate this third-order demon spirit.
Instead, she planned to seize the opportunity while the demon spirit tore Zhang Chen and the girl beside him apart, to escape again.
"Meow!"
Mo Ran let out a meow and fiercely charged towards the long-haired female ghost.
"Now!"
The girl saw her chance and ran in the opposite direction again.
"Hey, don't run around, it's more dangerous over there!"
Zhang Chen frowned and instructed.
"Heh, fool!"
The girl sneered dismissively, then jumped directly out of the window at the end of the corridor.
Bang!
In an instant, Mo Ran and the female ghost had exchanged more than a dozen blows.
The female ghost's hair was as sharp as steel needles, and coupled with the attacks from her clawed hands, Mo Ran was overwhelmed.
Fortunately, Mo Ran had also advanced to the third order. Relying on her powerful reaction speed and agile figure, she fought the female ghost to a standstill.
"How long will this battle take if it continues like this?"
"How about this, I'll beat the female ghost half to death, and then you can finish her off. This way, your strength can also be improved?"
Zhang Chen muttered to himself.
"Meow!"
Mo Ran's abdomen was swept by the female ghost's long hair. Her combat suit was immediately torn open with a large gash, revealing her fair little belly.
There were a few bloody marks on it.
But soon, the combat suit wrapped her body tightly again.
"Let me do it!"
Zhang Chen's figure suddenly flashed. Recalling his previous battle with a third-order demon spirit, he unleashed Baguazhang.
The opponent was humanoid, and Baguazhang was even more effective against human-shaped targets.
However, this time Zhang Chen only used ten percent of his strength.
Thump!
His fist heavily landed on the female ghost's abdomen. Her hair instantly parted, revealing her face!
It had three pairs of vertically aligned blood-red eyes, and below that, a mouth that stretched open to its ears, filled with fangs.
"Scared!"
Zhang Chen felt his heart suddenly clench.
"Who are you trying to scare?!"
As a reflex, he suddenly kicked out. He didn't control the force of this kick and regretted it the moment it left his foot.
"Roar!"
The female ghost turned into a cloud of black smoke and disappeared...
Another instant kill...
How strong am I?!
