Chapter 125
TL: Moonlit
The First District has now become a boiling pot of ants. They took a detour through the Fifth District and launched an attack on the Second District, sending top-tier esper powers to ambush Lei Yuxiao and Mo Chengshuang. They thought the plan was perfect, but unexpectedly, they encountered a major obstacle along the way. The well-prepared team was divided into three segments, and the forces trapped between the Fifth and Second Districts couldnt even retreat.
With their people dispatched, the First District was left empty internally.
The high-ranking officials of the First District were furious and went to seek advice from General Yin. General Yin was extremely angry and ordered the air force to prepare for battle.
Unless absolutely necessary, they didnt want to use highly destructive weapons. They merely wanted to eliminate the disobedient people and unify the Central Giant City, not destroy it.
However, at this point, they couldnt afford to consider such matters. If they didnt take action first, they would be the ones to die in the end.
A series of orders were swiftly issued as General Yin prepared for a final fight.
An adjutant rushed in and whispered something to him. General Yins expression turned cold. They have the audacity to come back? Let them in!
Yin Cheng immediately became alert. Did Cedrick and the others come back?
General Yins expression eased slightly. Yes, I thought they had the ability, but theyve been messing around all this time and havent brought back any good news! Theyre worthless!
Yin Cheng couldnt sit still. We cant let them in. The mission failed, and if they come at this time, it cant be for anything good
General Yin interrupted his grandson, his eyes filled with coldness. I know. A bunch of ignorant brats. If they dare to come, let them come and never leave!
Coincidentally, Cedrick and his group shared the same sentiment.
When the two sides met, Cedrick didnt exchange pleasantries and asked directly, What is the hope of humanity? Where is it?
General Yin sat upright in his seat, with Yin Cheng and his team on one side and the esper guards present as well.
General Yin sneered, Ive said that once the mission is complete, I will tell you. What right do you have to question me now?
The six-person team, having lost Alen, irritated Red Hair. Old man, when our boss asks you a question, its giving you face. Dont refuse to show us respect!
Yin Chengs face darkened, and the bright office was instantly engulfed in darkness. In the darkness, a sharp dagger was aimed at Red Hairs back!
The group was well-prepared. They didnt come for peaceful negotiations this time; they expected General Yin to attack them, and they didnt plan on letting the other side live after obtaining the answers they wanted. That was their way of doing things.
The fire of battle was about to ignite. Neither side held back, and while Cedrick and his group had considerable strength, invading the First District and leaving unscathed was far from guaranteed.
General Yin had already been escorted out of the darkness, and Yin Cheng, along with his team and the guards, surrounded Cedrick and the others. In addition to the ambush here, there were military forces and heavy weaponry waiting for them downstairs at the command center.
As a psychic esper, Molly was unaffected by the loss of vision and had been reporting positions to her companions.
Baruth transformed into a giant wolf, carrying the teenager on his back, and Cedrick, Molly, and Red Hair followed closely. The command center of the First District collapsed in an instant, burying everyone inside. Only a few powerful espers managed to escape.
Yin Cheng looked at the ruined command center and went mad.
His grandfather was still inside!
General Yin was escorted downstairs, but in such a short time, it was impossible to escape!
General Yin was buried inside!
Yin Chengs eyes turned bloodshot, and he shouted, Kill them!
Armored vehicles loaded with energy cannons appeared around the command center, aiming their barrels at Cedrick and his group.
Cedrick and the others quickly moved away, but the energy cannons opened fire, bombarding the area where they were trapped.
Cedricks group couldnt just wait to die. The teenager reluctantly erected a barrier to protect his companions, and they chased after Yin Cheng and his team in the fastest possible direction.
The attacks from the armored vehicles didnt cease. The teenagers psychic powers were depleted, and he fell into a coma.
The giant wolf had no choice but to transform into a half-human, half-wolf form, carrying the teenager while running frantically, covered in blood and severely wounded.
Cedrick was also covered in blood, his eyes bloodshot. Even if they died here, they were determined to complete their mission!
This was the purpose of their arrival in Huaxia!
Poppy, go! Cedrick no longer restrained the Arctic Corpse Bear and let it roam freely.
The Arctic Corpse Bear, which had been guarding nearby, heard the command and chased after Yin Cheng and his team, sweeping away all the interceptors, and enduring countless attacks. It successfully pounced on Yin Cheng, tearing apart his companions with a swipe of its claws.
The Arctic Corpse Bear held Yin Cheng in its mouth, stood up, and unleashed a deadly onslaught with its two sharp front paws. All the soldiers and espers who surrounded it were swept away, blood splattering everywhere.
Yin Cheng was not yet dead. The Arctic Corpse Bear didnt devour him, as he knew why Cedrick wanted to keep him alive. It was solely to ask about the hope of humanity. They had made a deal with Cedrick based on that.
In this dangerous apocalypse, they had come to Huaxia after enduring hardships, all to find the hope of humanity.
Regardless of what struggles or power struggles the Huaxia people faced internally, it was their own matter, unrelated to outsiders like them. Yin Cheng had no intention of revealing the hope to them, even if they completed their mission.
If the hope of humanity truly lay in Huaxia, it would be the hope of the Huaxia people themselves, not outsiders like them. They wouldnt allow them to lay their hands on the hope.
Yin Cheng looked at Cedrick and his group, who were also severely injured. A mad smile appeared on his face. With great effort, he raised his hand and threw the hand grenade he had been holding into the mouth of the Arctic Corpse Bear
A tremendous explosion echoed, reaching the Third District.
The high-ranking officials in the Third District wore solemn expressions. They were adjacent to the First District, and such a significant disturbance couldnt go unnoticed.
Wen Qingling, who was still recovering, opened his eyes and saw the remnants of beast crystal scattered around. He left the villa.
On the streets of the Third District, soldiers were cleaning up the corpse monsters, and they felt a gust of wind passing by. Startled, they turned their heads but found nothing unusual, so they continued their work in confusion.
Wen Qingling swiftly jumped over high walls and entered the territory of the First District, heading towards the battlefield.
Yin Cheng had bad luck. The grenade he threw was swallowed by the Arctic Corpse Bear, piercing its stomach, and breaking its spine, but its head remained intact. The battered Arctic Corpse Bear lay on the ground, still alive.
However, the injuries inflicted on the Arctic Corpse Bear greatly affected Cedrick. Covered in blood, he approached Yin Cheng step by step, lifted his head, and gritted his teeth as he asked, What is the hope of humanity? Where is it?!
Yin Cheng was on the verge of death. He could no longer see clearly and was unable to speak.
He felt regretful that he couldnt take out these intruders before he died. He felt a bit unwilling.
It doesnt matter if you dont speak. I will take your brain back, and we will surely extract all the information from it
If you want any information, why not tell me? Perhaps I might know something. Wen Qingling squatted on a balcony, watching the spectacle.
Upon hearing Wen Qinglings voice, Yin Chengs face contorted momentarily, but then it turned joyful. With Wen Qinglings ruthlessness, he would never let these intruders escape.
Great, the unfinished task was completed by Wen Qingling instead.
Cedricks face turned pale. He turned his head and saw Wen Qingling, who had appeared out of nowhere. He immediately thought of Molly not giving him a warning, and when he turned back to find her, he discovered Molly lying in a pool of blood, lifeless.
Cedrick swung his blade, severing Yin Chengs head, and threw it to Barut. Go first! Well hold him back!
Barut held the head, carried the teenager, and turned to run.
The soldiers surrounding them had mostly been eliminated by the Arctic Corpse Bear. Apart from Wen Qingling, no one could stop them.
Wen Qingling watched them escape with interest, crouching without moving.
The red-haired individual was also heavily injured. Cedrick and the red-haired person joined forces to buy time, launching fireballs and bullets in Wen Qinglings direction.
Wen Qingling leaped high into the air, easily evading all the attacks. Are you really not going to tell me what youre looking for?
In response to Wen Qingling, a barrage of bullets came, and Cedrick and the red-haired person fought and retreated.
Wen Qingling found it uninteresting. I heard youre looking for the hope of humanity. I wonder if youre looking for me. Let me claim it.
Cedrick was stunned, looking at her in disbelief.
The red-haired person didnt understand.
Cedrick: You are the hope of humanity?!
Wen Qingling: Perhaps. After all, they all call me that.
Cedrick shook his head. You are not the hope of humanity; you are the despair of humanity.
Wen Qingling pondered for a moment. I feel the same way.
Wen Qingling walked in the direction where Barut disappeared with the teenager. Being able to die by my hands, you should feel honored. After all, I am the despair of humanity, and not everyone can have your privilege.
Cedric and the red-haired person watched Wen Qingling leave and immediately chased after him. Stop!
After shouting, Wen Qingling didnt stop, but they did.
Thorns pierced their hearts, pinning them to the ground.
Wen Qingling reached out, taking the things from Cedrick, the red-haired person, and Mollys waist.
Barut held the teenager, carrying the head, and ran desperately.
Dont run. If you manage to escape, where will I put my face? Wen Qinglings voice appeared in Baruts ear.
Unfortunately, Barut couldnt understand Mandarin.
Wen Qingling clicked his tongue, thinking they were really unprofessional. Coming out to execute a mission without picking someone who understands Mandarin, is that looking down on someone? Do they think they can carry out the mission even without understanding Mandarin?
Barut continued to run desperately, while Wen Qingling followed leisurely behind.
When Barut finally reached the city gate after great difficulty, he discovered that the gate had been sealed with wooden walls.
It wasnt sealed when they entered!
Barut looked up at the towering wall, reaching a hundred meters in height, and contemplated the possibility of climbing over it There was almost no possibility, unless he could fly.
With no way out, Barut had no choice but to hide the teenager and the head in a residential area, attempting to leave someone alive. He himself ran in another direction, preparing to face Wen Qingling head-on.
Wen Qingling: Arent you disrespecting me a bit too much? Hiding things in front of a psychic ability user. Do you think Im blind?
Barut still couldnt understand and transformed into a giant wolf, waiting for Wen Qingling to appear.
Indeed, Wen Qingling appeared. He stood on a rooftop, looking down, and threw the teenager he was holding in his hand. The little dog likes hiding things, so I found it for you. Next.
Barut, in his giant wolf form, trembled in his pupils, not because he understood Wen Qinglings words but because he saw the teenager being thrown towards him.
Barut quickly transformed back into human form, reaching out to catch the teenager, but a dark shadow fell upon them, and Barut and the teenager fell to the ground instantly.
Wen Qingling clapped his hands, deeply feeling that it made sense for the ugly freaks to like throwing things. It was much more convenient to have a car smash them than personally intervening.
Wen Qingling walked over, lifted the car with one hand, and dragged the person out from inside, dragging them all the way back.
Everyone in the Third District witnessed a young person with a tender face, holding a blood-soaked person in one hand, dragging them all the way to the command center.
Everyone:
Damn, where did this boss come from? They can even carry such a big figure. Impressive.
Wen Qingling threw the two bloodied individuals onto the ground. Xiao Hen, accept the delivery.
