After thoroughly gathering useful information about the "Fallen City," Lu Heng confirmed that there were only three seventh-tier ability users within the city, with all other ability users being below fifth-tier.
Three other seventh-tier ability users had gone out to search for supplies and had not yet returned. This presented a perfect opportunity. Although killing seventh-tier ability users was effortless for him, resolving these individuals quickly would allow him to rescue the victimized ordinary people sooner.
Therefore, he proceeded to the central area where the administrators resided and released his ability pets.
The golden eagle flew to a high altitude first, creating a hurricane in the area where the administrators lived. In the apocalypse, many temporary structures were still erected within various shelters. These structures were far less sturdy and durable than those built before the apocalypse. Now, the golden eagle's wind ability could overturn ordinary houses.
After the golden eagle created the hurricane, disrupting the guards' line of sight, Lu Heng headed towards the administrators' residence.
As soon as he stepped into the building, the guards at the entrance immediately came out to stop him.
"Who are you? Why wasn't there any prior notice..."
*Bang!*
He knocked the person unconscious with a single punch and continued upstairs without stopping.
*Boom!*
Anyone who tried to stop him along the way was knocked out by Lu Heng's punch. Those who attempted to use their abilities to attack him were blocked by the earth walls created by the little blood wolf.
People emerging from the building to stop Lu Heng, upon seeing Lu Heng's imposing presence as he moved through the area with his group of ability animals as if no one else was there, retreated into nearby rooms.
Soon, Lu Heng arrived outside the room where the man with the gold-rimmed glasses and his companions were. Through his senses, he could accurately detect the level and ability attributes of the people inside the room. With his complete suppression of levels, as a tenth-tier ability powerhouse, anyone below tenth-tier appeared to him as equally weak.
*Bang!*
The black bear punched the room's door, and the door splintered like tofu, scattering wood chips.
The three individuals inside, who had already adopted defensive stances, understood the situation upon seeing the black palm that had breached the door. It was indeed an ability animal attack, just as they had suspected.
However, they were unsure whether these ability animals were specifically targeting them or if they had gone berserk and randomly chosen them as targets.
The black bear smashed through the wooden door and lunged into the room. Seeing this, even though they had anticipated an ability animal, the three were astonished to see a black bear standing in the room.
The distance from the city gate to their location was not short. They had not received any news of such a large animal entering the city during that time.
The middle-aged woman was about to use her wood ability to create vines to attack the black bear when a thicker vine shot out from the doorway and lunged towards her chest.
With no time to dodge, the vine pierced her chest. The woman's eyes widened in disbelief as she looked towards the doorway. Unfortunately, she couldn't see the animal controlling the vine. Branches from the vine in her chest spread out, bursting her chest cavity.
"Niman!" the burly man in the room shouted, roaring as he rushed towards the woman.
But as soon as he moved, the black bear, which had been standing at the doorway, stepped forward towards the burly man before him. The black bear's movement caused the floor to shake, startling Lu Heng even from outside the room.
"Be careful, don't end up falling through the floor," Lu Heng's voice echoed from outside the room. This startled the two men inside, causing them to stop their actions and look towards the doorway in fear.
There was still someone else? Why weren't these ability animals attacking him?
Lu Heng spoke as he entered the room with his pets.
Fortunately, the room was likely used as a conference room, and the space inside was quite large, barely accommodating so many animals. Even so, Lu Heng placed two leopards at the doorway to guard.
The black bear, which had been called to a halt, walked back to the doorway gently. It rubbed its nose and stood beside Lu Heng.
"Who are you?" the man with the gold-rimmed glasses asked, looking at Lu Heng standing amidst the ability animals.
"Just consider me a busybody. You've been lording over this place for quite some time, and it's time to make way."
"What do you want? We can give you anything. Food, crystals, I..." the man with the gold-rimmed glasses said, backing away towards a certain spot.
Lu Heng's lips curled upwards. Fortunately, he could probe the thoughts of these people. That man was intending to detonate the bombs installed in the building.
These people truly were great villains; they had installed so many explosives even in their own residences, intending to perish together with their enemies if they could no longer protect their position.
Ruthless!
But I haven't lived enough to accompany you in death.
Lu Heng waved his hand, and everything in the room vanished.
"What were you trying to get?" Lu Heng walked to the center of the room and stood, asking the man with the gold-rimmed glasses.
The man looked at Lu Heng in terror. He had intended to retrieve the bomb's remote control. He had already recognized this man as the one who had appeared at the city gate earlier and killed the two guards.
And this man was indeed too uncanny. He knew that even if all of them were present today, no one would be able to escape. So, he decided to go all out. It wouldn't be bad to have this man accompany him to the grave.
However, he never expected that this man would not attack him directly with his abilities but would make all the items in the room disappear.
It was just as the information he had received stated: this person possessed the ability to make any item disappear.
He was unaware of the existence of spatial items, so he couldn't comprehend how so many things could vanish into thin air.
"Do I look like I'm lacking anything?" Lu Heng said dismissively, then a detonator appeared in his hand.
"Heh, looking for this?" Lu Heng waved the item in his hand and asked with a smile.
"You, how did you do that?" the man with the gold-rimmed glasses asked, unwilling to give up.
"You are not qualified to know. Just assume I know magic!"
"You're Lu Heng?" the man with the gold-rimmed glasses suddenly recalled. There had always been rumors about a powerful individual in the military base who knew magic.
Initially, they had dismissed it as a joke, as who with any sense would believe such a thing in an era that had experienced modern civilization.
"I've wasted enough time talking to you. You and your companions can set off together." As soon as he finished speaking, two small bloody holes appeared in the center of their foreheads.
"You really..." the man with the gold-rimmed glasses' words were cut short, and the burly man who had rushed to the woman's side also fell to the ground.
