The sound of chaos filled the air as Wei Wei stood amidst the turmoil. He watched as one after another, the totems surged towards the blood-flesh rose blooming on the building. For Scrap Iron City, this was a disaster. The blood-flesh rose, powerless against the totems' might, could only weakly extend its tendrils.
"Understood..."A massive eye merged with the blood-flesh tendrils in an instant. However, it wasn't consumed; instead, it actively integrated itself. The eye's blood vessels, like tails and tentacles, rapidly penetrated the tendrils, allowing it to parasitize them. The eye rolled a few times, gazing through the internal structure of the blood-flesh rose, swiftly extending inside to search for the God's Death Knell.The black goat with flames burning in its eyes stepped through the void, approaching the massive blood-flesh tendrils. Without doing anything, the tendrils began to rot and die. The flames on the goat seemed to carry an essence opposite to light, bringing death to anything they touched."Huff..."A corrupt dragon flapped its wings, unleashing a massive gust that swept half the building. The blood-flesh tendrils, now merged with faces, suddenly awakened, opening their mouths to cry out and struggle. This chaos disrupted the control over the tendrils.Towering blood-flesh trees stretched towards the building, their branches extending inside. A strange face in the sky silently opened its lips, unleashing a bizarre language that enveloped the entire building.The blood-flesh rose could have resisted any totem if it had the chance. Unfortunately, its mission didn't allow it. The tendrils snapped, falling to the ground like a gecko's tail, writhing uncontrollably.All the totems released their powers, with the True Eye of the Knowledge Demon system having the advantage. It was the first to parasitize the blood-flesh rose, searching for the God's Death Knell. Other totems were mere projections but still attacked with all their might.Wei Wei, standing on the rooftop, witnessed the terrifying battle between the totems. He raised his empty guns, shouting, "Don't move!" He couldn't fight them, so he decided to continue doing his job.Just as Wei Wei raised his guns, all the totems turned towards him, their gazes filled with surprise, respect, and anger. Wei Wei felt a shiver run down his spine as he looked at his guns, wondering why they seemed so intimidating.Suddenly, a distorted spiritual power appeared above Scrap Iron City. Black shadows materialized, and the ground seemed to turn into a swamp or another dimension. Massive ivory-like pillars emerged from the ground, stretching into the sky and merging hundreds of meters above, forming a giant cage that enclosed the city center.The blood-flesh rose and the True Eye, along with other totem projections, were trapped inside this cage. The pillars, semi-transparent and adorned with intricate runes, isolated the air inside and out, dividing the city into two separate worlds.The totems were surprised by the cage's appearance. "First-tier Demon Forbidden Object: Ivory Tower?" Wei Wei was also shocked.But then, he felt an even greater pressure and looked up to see a massive, copper-green-stained cross falling from the sky. It was over ten meters tall and descended straight down, its tip piercing the air and creating circular ripples."First-tier Demon Forbidden Object: Destruction Cross?" Wei Wei's expression twisted in shock.As the cross landed about a hundred meters above the ground, a series of explosive energies burst forth. Bright, dazzling orbs appeared and exploded, shredding any spiritual force with a power akin to nuclear bombs. The buildings around seemed to undergo destruction and rebirth, and any sentient being felt the force of the explosions.In this chaos, Wei Wei saw the corrupt dragon's wings being annihilated, the blood-flesh rose torn apart, and the black goat's projection flickering under the relentless explosions.The Ivory Tower, a Foundation-collected Demon Forbidden Object, was a birdcage-like structure capable of enclosing and isolating space. It could cover up to a hundred kilometers and had once been used to effortlessly contain an entire demon playground.The Destruction Cross, another Foundation-collected object, was an old-fashioned cross that triggered countless spiritual bombs upon exposure to air, capable of killing any being with consciousness within a ten-kilometer radius. By containing its power within the Ivory Tower, its effect became even more potent."What is that?"At the edge of Scrap Iron City, the security team was evacuating panicked civilians from the chaotic central area. They felt the earth-shaking terror but were unaffected due to the Ivory Tower's enclosure."It's the Foundation's doing..."Captain Ouyang was the first to react, taking a deep breath with a mix of relief and fear."The situation in Scrap Iron City has become too big, and the influence of the God's Death Knell is too significant. The Foundation couldn't have been unaware. After we submitted our report, they wouldn't have remained so passive. The only possibility is that all this was part of their plan."On a nearby rooftop, Uncle Gun expressed some hesitation, turning to Captain Ouyang: "What about Little Wei...?""Little Wei and Feifei just went inside... Captain Ouyang's face turned pale: "Feifei doesn't need to worry; she won't die even if we do...""But Little Wei...""What kind of idiot came up with this plan?"Watching the Ivory Tower and the Destruction Cross, Wei Wei cursed.As he realized the Foundation was behind this, he felt overwhelmed by the endless destruction. He thought, "It's over. This life is definitely over." But thinking about all the demon totems dying with him was somewhat satisfying.Just as the explosions raged on, a humming noise came from above, and a semi-transparent circular array appeared in the sky. A white, slender figure fell from it, radiating soft white light. She floated in the air, her white-gloved hands pressing forward.The destruction forces surged, making everything seem unreal. However, where her hands extended, a fan-shaped space was created, blocking the destruction. Wei Wei, inside this space, remained unharmed.Next, more circular arrays appeared, and black figures with mobile gliders descended, firing at the blood-flesh rose. The air was filled with massive red electrical currents, like a sea of lightning, engulfing the building."Red Angels."Each of their shots used Red Angels, a high-caliber ammunition. Even the remaining totem projections were targeted and eliminated by the red electrical currents."Who is that girl flying in the air?"Wei Wei looked at them in surprise, his emotions stirred.At the same time, several black figures landed on the rooftop, one of them carrying an unconscious Ye Feifei. They wore masks and carried guns, exuding a dangerous aura.Wei Wei looked up at them, and they silently gazed back, their presence imposing.Then, one of them smiled and lifted their mask, revealing a sunny and youthful face with two small tiger teeth."Brother Wei, you're still so crazy..."Wei Wei's eyes widened in surprise as he approached the boy, pinching his cheek in delight."Black Cat..."The boy didn't dodge, just looked a bit shy and whispered, "Brother Wei, there are people around!"Someone nearby snorted, "Is this the legendary student from the 13th training camp?"A sturdy man in his thirties, with a weathered face, looked at Wei Wei with some disappointment."Brother Wei, let me introduce you," Black Cat said, gesturing towards the man. "This is our Qing Niao Squad Captain, Xu Zhong. He's known as the most promising candidate to join the Xingtian Squad."Wei Wei had heard of the Qing Niao Squad. Black Cat had been selected for the Xingtian Squad's reserve unit after graduating from the training camp. The reserve unit had ten squads, each executing tasks independently but ready to assist the Xingtian Squad when needed. The Qing Niao Squad was the top-ranked among them.The Foundation must have considered this situation very important to deploy not only two powerful Demon Forbidden Objects but also the Qing Niao Squad
