"So strong, they actually closed in for close-quarters combat and eliminated the Hell Envoy?! This... this is simply unscientific!"
Zhou Feifei said, her eyes filled with shock.
On the other side, Xu Linna's expression was solemn, she offered no comment.
"Is this guy the founder of the legendary Nightmare organization? If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't dare to believe that such a powerful being exists in this world!"
"I'm afraid only the elder board members of Phoenix Academy could contend with such an existence!"
Zhou Feifei said, her voice filled with lingering fear.
"It is precisely because this guy possesses power that is terrifyingly potent, and also refuses to cooperate with the Spirit Energy Association, operating the Nightmare organization as they please, that they were listed as the world's most dangerous organization!"
Xu Linna said with a grave expression.
"Then why did this guy suddenly appear here? It seems the rumors might not be entirely true. This powerful demon spirit wasn't summoned by her; rather, she eliminated it."
"This means it's the exact opposite of what was reported in the news. The Nightmare organization isn't just not terrorists, but rather unsung heroes, saviors?"
Zhou Feifei was utterly astonished, never expecting that something she had believed for over a decade would end with such a dramatic reversal.
"In this world, truth and falsehood, falsehood and truth are intertwined. Seeing is not always believing, and even when you see it with your own eyes, it may not necessarily be the truth!"
"The purpose of the Nightmare organization's existence is definitely not as simple as hunting down demon spirits everywhere."
"If their work objectives were highly overlapping with the Spirit Energy Association, there would be no need for them to refuse cooperation."
"They must have some great secret that they absolutely must do, but cannot make public!"
"I believe that if I can uncover this secret, I too can become as powerful, or even stronger!"
Xu Linna looked at Xiao Bai in front of her, a sly glint in her eyes.
"She's coming towards Zhang Chen, should we do something?"
"Could their objective be to capture geniuses like Zhang Chen? Otherwise, why would the Nightmare organization have so many monsters?"
Zhou Feifei watched Xiao Bai get closer and closer to Zhang Chen, her anxiety rising in tandem.
After all, Zhang Chen possessed a golden talent that had never appeared in history. His talent must hold immense secrets.
If it were to be seized by the Nightmare organization, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"I'll block her, you take Zhang Chen back to the academy. We have board members on duty guarding the school today, the Nightmare organization shouldn't dare to act rashly!"
Xu Linna nodded and said.
The reason she brought Zhang Chen here was actually to gauge the strength of Zhang Chen's talent, and at the same time, to investigate the purpose of the Nightmare organization's appearance.
Demon spirits that have escaped combat will prioritize attacking targets with the strongest talent.
At that time, Zhang Chen, Zhou Feifei, and Xu Linna were standing together.
However, the monster's target was clearly directed at Zhang Chen, indicating that his potential far surpassed that of the two principals of Phoenix Academy!
Furthermore, at the very moment the demon spirit was about to attack Zhang Chen, the leader of the Nightmare organization, who was hidden nearby, made their move.
This suggests that their target was likely Zhang Chen as well!
This simple action alone resolved two of Xu Linna's doubts.
"I'll leave it to you, be careful!"
Zhou Feifei grabbed Zhang Chen, then exerted force with her legs, swiftly darting forward.
Xiao Bai glanced over and saw that it was Xu Linna who had taken Zhang Chen. Knowing that he would be fine, she prepared to leave.
*Thump!*
At that moment, Xu Linna suddenly appeared, blocking Xiao Bai's path.
"Don't even think about pursuing. Your opponent is me!"
Xiao Bai looked at Xu Linna and smiled slightly. Her voice, transmitted through a voice changer, sounded like a deep male voice:
"If it were you at your peak, perhaps you could contend with me, but you, now... Hmph... you're not even close to enough!"
"Move aside, don't block my way!"
Xiao Bai said, her feet not stopping, as she continued to advance.
"Ha, as the principal of Phoenix Academy, I'm being underestimated!"
"Do you have a misunderstanding about the strength of Phoenix Academy?"
Xu Linna said, quickly condensing spirit energy into a talisman with her hands, and then gently flicking it onto the ground.
*Rumble!*
The ground instantly cracked open, and massive stone giants emerged from the soil, trapping Xiao Bai within.
"So that's how it is, a trap was set long ago, wasn't it!"
"No wonder you were so confident watching the Hell Envoy charge towards Zhang Chen. Even if I hadn't intervened, you would have activated this trap to contain it!"
"Xu Linna, you're as cunning as ever!"
Xiao Bai grinned, realizing that stronger opponents only made her more excited.
