"So this is settled?"
Looking at Wei Wei making a bold proposal and Ye Feifei eagerly signing up, Uncle Gun's OCD was almost cured.Of course I know that missions should be seen through to the end...Of course I know that as Transcendent security officers, we should handle things that happen in Scrap Iron City properly!But that thing can make our minds collapse with just one look. Just from its sheer size, it's far beyond what low-level Transcendents like us can fight against. No, we can't even stand in front of it. We position ourselves as just small security guards, but you two are eagerly ready to grab guns and run over to save the world?...The key thing is that these two don't even care much about their wages. They haven't even noticed that the captain embezzled their mission bonuses!But while he was thinking sadly and desperately, Wei Wei and Ye Feifei had already rushed out.Seeing this, Sen Sen's cold face actually showed some approval and a smile, and she immediately followed them.That face that seemed covered with thin ice even looked at Uncle Gun with rare... praise?"It turns out my grandfather was wrong before. You actually have a strong sense of responsibility!""..."No, your grandfather was absolutely right. Don't change your opinion of us, and definitely don't habitually have expectations of us...In Uncle Gun's silent wailing, Lucky Sister sighed deeply and slowly followed, "I'm useless anyway. I only have a pretty face and a sexy body, but I haven't married anyone. At my age, I still don't have a boyfriend, so my face and body are also worthless. Someone as useless as me has no right to make decisions about such important matters.""So why should I think so much? I'll just do whatever others tell me to do..."Uncle Gun immediately gave up the idea of discussing with her and looked at Little Brother Lin, only to see him also quickly keeping up:"I'm just a quiet display mannequin. I just need to be quietly admired by people...""...""Sigh, forget it, let's go if we're going.""But we don't need to actually confront that thing. Just evacuate the citizens from the city center as quickly as possible..."Uncle Gun stomped his feet in frustration and could only serve as the voice of reason in the team.Unfortunately, this impromptu battle meeting was attended by only Uncle Gun himself - everyone else had already disappeared."Ever since we got these two, our little team seems to have become less and less principled..."Uncle Gun thought sadly, "It's no longer like the old days when we'd immediately pack up and run at the first mention of retreat...""...""Wuu wuu wuu..."Everyone quickly requisitioned temporary transportation from the side and rushed toward the blood-colored building in the city center.After Sen Sen mounted her flesh motorcycle, she waited a moment. Seeing Wei Wei resolutely getting on Ye Feifei's three-wheeler, she chuckled and twisted the throttle, charging forward. Lucky Sister, Little Brother Lin, and the others also quickly caught up.Wei Wei was actually a bit curious, thinking Ye Feifei would still drive her dump truck.But unexpectedly, Ye Feifei was really traumatized and directly pushed over a red passenger tricycle from the roadside.She even said this vehicle was easier to handle.Alright...Wei Wei was a good-natured person, though he still felt that Ye Feifei driving the dump truck was actually more charming.The central district of Scrap Iron City was now in complete chaos. Massive flesh squeezed out from the tall building, giant flesh tentacles waved around the building's center like bloody carnivorous flowers. Many half-melted human limbs and faces could be seen on the tentacles, still struggling, carrying a terrifying yet bloody beauty as they bloomed in the city center.This was undoubtedly an existence that was essentially a Life Demon.But at this moment, no one could judge what level it had reached - they could only feel the overwhelming difference in power.Normally, when faced with such a high-level existence that was essentially demonic, just one look would cause complete mental collapse.However, it seemed this Blood-Flesh Rose was using most of its will to forcefully suppress something inside its body.Therefore, what spread out to capture prey was merely pure physical power.Otherwise, if its complete will was fully released, the entire Scrap Iron City might be erased in an instant.Terrified crowds fled like floodwater surging toward various street intersections.With Pandora's Box half-closed, the high fever plague that had been troubling them was receding. Will and physical strength were gradually returning to their bodies. Faced with this nightmare-like Blood-Flesh Rose, they didn't dare look back and desperately moved their legs, running toward more distant places.Chaos, panic, crushing, trampling, and congestion became the greatest obstacles...Swoosh...A blood-red tentacle lashed toward the crowded crowd.These panicked ordinary people didn't even know what they could do when the tentacle was falling toward them."Bang!"At that moment, a figure descended from the sky. Uncle Gun fired a shot to sever the tentacle, clutching his rifle and shouting desperately:"Don't crowd together! Pick up the children beside you and run straight ahead down this main road...""..."There were people cowering in a building, trembling as they watched a flesh tentacle sweep over and tear off the building's dome. Walls cracked, columns collapsed, and they held their heads and cried. But at this moment, a charming woman in a qipao walked in.She kicked off her high heel, which flew out and lodged perfectly in a crack in the wall, miraculously supporting the collapsing building."Don't hide here."She said lazily, leaning against the doorway, "Even the best luck won't favor those who only know how to hide."The crowd rushed out of the building in panic. Just as the last person had rushed out, the building behind them collapsed with a thunderous crash. Among the shaken crowd, a child shouted loudly to the charming qipao woman, "Thank you, beautiful auntie..."The qipao woman froze for a moment, pursed her lips and mumbled, then tears flowed down uncontrollably.She'd never seen such ingratitude..."Go left...""Take the right alley...""..."The chaotic crowd just wanted to quickly escape the city center, but in the crowding and chaos, countless people ran around like headless flies.At this time, mannequins in glass display windows suddenly awakened and quietly pointed out the way for them.Throughout the city, countless figures standing quietly in display windows awakened and directed the chaotic and terrified crowd."They're rescuing people. Where are we going?"Ye Feifei gripped the handlebars of the red three-wheeler with both hands and shouted back to Wei Wei in the cart."Go inside!"Wei Wei stared intently at the blooming Blood-Flesh Rose, quickly recovering his physical condition.He usually had cellular activity abilities and rarely kept life serums with him, but this time, due to the weakening from Pandora's Box, his life energy had dropped significantly. After fighting the War Demon, his body was nearly at the point of collapse.Fortunately, he had Scarlet power to patch things up, and with Pandora's Box closed, his life force was also recovering.But undoubtedly, this was his weakest moment.And that Blood-Flesh Rose blooming in the city center emanated the most dangerous aura.Yet Wei Wei still felt he should go over.Not for any other reason - he just particularly hated these blooming things."Beep beep beep..."The red three-wheeler formed an opposite route from the citizens fleeing the city center.However, they weren't the only ones taking the opposite route. Sitting on the three-wheeler, Wei Wei could see many figures on nearby rooftops and in adjacent districts who clearly weren't ordinary people, rapidly closing in on the city center.These were the many hidden mysterious organizations in the city.It wasn't just the Seventh Sect outside the city that coveted God's Death Knell - there were many mysterious organizations.The moment the Blood-Flesh Rose bloomed, their ambitions were equally aroused, and they rushed to approach at this time.Wei Wei felt they were more like people coming to watch the excitement.Knowing that such a dangerous thing was completely beyond their reach, but still wanting to take a look.But Wei Wei had no intention of warning them. Instead, he hoped there would be more such people. The closer they got, the more they could attract the Blood-Flesh Rose's attention. For the Blood-Flesh Rose blooming urgently at this moment, the life force of these Transcendents was far better than that of ordinary Scrap Iron City citizens who had just experienced a plague and were in an extremely weakened state."Alright..."Ye Feifei encouraged herself, lowered her head, and suddenly twisted the three-wheeler's handlebars.Whoosh whoosh...The air was filled with the sound of sharp objects cutting through space as blood-red tentacles struck down.Ye Feifei didn't see anything at all, but the three-wheeler barely passed through under the blood-red tentacles' coverage.Buildings around them crashed down with thunderous sounds, landing right behind the three-wheeler and raising clouds of smoke.The ground shook and cracked into terrifying fissures, splitting darkly in both directions as the road surface collapsed.But the red three-wheeler drove steadily through the chaotic streets, managing to get through just before the ground caved in......."This..."Wei Wei sat in the back of the three-wheeler, feeling his eyes opened to a whole new world.He watched blood-colored tentacles waving beside him, each strike rolling countless people around him into the air before being devoured alive by the faces on the tentacles. The surrounding concrete and steel occasionally collapsed, burying countless people underneath. Huge clouds of smoke rose behind the path they had taken, and he could see countless wild Transcendents skewered by flesh tentacles like candied fruit.Faced with this succession of disasters and chaos, Wei Wei even felt despair in his heart.Ye Feifei really had changed...Looking at Ye Feifei keeping her head down and steadily gripping the steering wheel as she charged forward, he felt genuine admiration.How did she do it? How could she be so stable?"That should be about right..."Finally, the building where the Blood-Flesh Rose was blooming appeared before them, and Ye Feifei finally raised her head."Eh? How did we get so close?""..."Wei Wei suddenly sensed something was wrong and looked at Ye Feifei in surprise, "So you weren't even looking this whole time?""Right..."Ye Feifei said, "I was afraid if I opened my eyes...""You're even scarier with your eyes closed..."Thinking that Ye Feifei had driven through such a dangerous stretch with her eyes closed, Wei Wei felt like prostrating himself in admiration. What kind of miraculous ability could allow someone to drive with their eyes closed in such a dangerous place? What kind of enormous heart could persist in keeping their head down and eyes closed while gripping the steering wheel tightly in such chaotic surroundings, believing they could definitely break through?Wait...Maybe he had misunderstood.Ye Feifei wasn't driving with her eyes closed through disaster.Perhaps she was driving with her eyes closed while bringing disaster to this street...Thinking this, he looked back at the street behind them. Buildings and even high-rises on both sides had collapsed like paper. The ordinary citizens had long since fled, but quite a few Transcendents who had just snuck in were trapped on this street.How should he put it...He actually felt inexplicably guilty.Wei Wei's legs were a bit weak as he jumped down from the three-wheeler and looked Ye Feifei up and down intently."Is this your ability?""What ability?""Leaving nothing alive in your wake?""Huh?"Ye Feifei couldn't help but freeze for a moment and said, "I don't have such a terrible ability. I'm just a bit unlucky."Wei Wei couldn't help but look back again, seeing only a devastated street district with dead people crushed under buildings. Even worse were some who weren't dead yet and were writhing and groaning in the ruins, clutching their legs..."Are you sure you're the unlucky one?""..."What started as a casual question actually made Ye Feifei hesitate, saying suspiciously, "But I do seem to have changed a bit.""Ever since I decided to return to Scrap Iron City, I've always seemed to hear some vague voices. Although I feel I'm still very unlucky, somehow the way I'm unlucky seems different from before...""...""This..."Hearing this, Wei Wei's heart skipped a beat, "Could she have inadvertently advanced?""If she used to be just unlucky, what is she now?""..."Ye Feifei didn't think about such complex issues at all. She looked up at the flesh tentacles, then fearfully lowered her head again.With a grave expression, she said quietly, "Now that we're so close, what are we going to do?"Wei Wei took a deep breath and said seriously, "Out of concern for your safety, I would advise you to leave immediately.""But out of trust in you, I think you should just wander around the area...""...""Huh?"Ye Feifei was somewhat disappointed, but she didn't dare argue with the only person on the team who was her equal rank and who respected her and believed in her abilities. She agreed silently, just asking curiously, "Then Brother Wei, what are you going to do?""Me..."Wei Wei looked into the distance, seeing the red rose blooming and countless severed limbs falling to the ground.The entire city was in a state of irrefutable chaos.He suddenly smiled happily and said, "I'm going to do something very important."
