Ian's rage!!!
"Crunch, crunch..."
Steel Shell body, as thick as a water bucket, tightly coiled around the enormous skeleton. As the body tightened, the manifested skeleton began to shatter, and the Flash Ghost within it looked grim.
Just then...
A pool of strange blood seemed to lose its gravity, floating straight toward the Steel Shell body.
"Laugh--"
The next moment.
The Steel Shell, as hard as metal, made a corrosive sound and emitted white smoke, as if it had been doused with concentrated sulfuric acid.
It felt no pain; its single, large eye glanced to the side and stared intently at the Evil Mage had attacked it.
It... needs to avenge its "kind"!
Therefore... its actions were not slow at all!
"Crunch, crunch..."
Large areas of the skeleton were cracked.
The Flash Ghost maintained the skeleton, its expression grim; it was well aware of the strength of the skeleton it had conjured.
The opponent's terrifying force, like a hydraulic press, meant that once he lost the protection of the skull shell, he wasn't confident he could dodge the terrifying entanglement that was about to follow!
"Evil Mage, kill this guy quickly!"
"Flash Ghost shouted anxiously."
Hearing his words.
Beside him, Evil Mage with blood trickling from his arm and wearing a kasaya, made a hand seal, his expression calm, only a slight smile playing on his lips as he chuckled.
"Isn't this already helping you? Don't worry..."
"These monsters are interesting. They don't seem to be plants or living things; they're more like some kind of technological creation..."
"This one is the biggest, and might even be their leader. Destroying it should stop the other monsters from attacking..."
Seeing that the cracks on the skull were increasing, Flash Ghost hurriedly shouted.
"Then hurry up!"
With his own strength, he shouldn't have needed to fear these monsters.
However, if one is not careful and gets entangled in it, everything becomes passive. Once the skeleton is completely shattered, it will take some time just to re-enact it.
For him, this undoubtedly weakens his own strength.
"Understood..."
The Evil Mage smiled; his probing attack had worked, and now all he needed to do was increase the intensity of his attack.
His sharp, long fingernails cut his arm again.
He muttered some kind of scripture.
The next second!
Another clump of blood floated out from his arm. The blood was dark black, as if it contained some kind of terrifying toxin, and under his control, it seemed to come alive.
"Whoosh!"
The blood shot out and splattered directly onto the wound on the Steel Shell.
"Laugh--"
A plume of thick white smoke rose up!
A large hole was visibly corroded into the massive Steel Shell, and the corrosion continued rapidly, soon expanding to a full two meters in area.
Until... its body was broken in two!
"Boom!"
It was as if a tightly wound elastic rope had suddenly snapped.
In that instant.
The large eye on the Steel Shell looked puzzled, while the Flash Ghost trapped inside the skeleton was overjoyed, instantly seizing the opportunity.
The giant skeleton broke free of its restraints, spread its arms wide, and then its terrifying bone hands gripped the Steel Shell, lifting it into the sky and tearing at the two halves of the Steel Shell before slamming it heavily to the ground!
Everything happened in the blink of an eye.
"Clang--"
As the thickest Steel Shell in the "Justice Rope," it was slammed heavily onto the hard asphalt road, and countless electronic components were smashed out from its broken remains.
Various oddly shaped electronic components were thrown to the ground, clanging and clattering, creating a complete mess!
The surrounding crowd gaped, staring in shock at the horrifying scene!
The giant skull, a symbol of evil, stands like a towering giant, its terrifying bone claws tearing the "Justice Rope" that represents righteousness in half!
These violent images are etched in everyone's minds and linger there for a long time!
Everyone looked at each other...
Unable to decide what to think, the arena fell silent for a moment.
At the same time.
No one noticed that a strange pink door had appeared on the street at some point, and then it was pushed open.
A foot slowly stepped out; it was Ian.
"Finally free! That damn monster, it was incredibly strong!"
After breaking free from constraints.
Flash Ghost twisted his neck, making a cracking sound. He looked up and glanced at the giant skeleton, which was now covered with cracks, and said with a gloomy expression.
"Honestly, Evil Mage, you're too slow!"
"If you had helped me deal with this monster sooner, we might have been able to finish this off by now!"
The Evil Mage remained calm and chuckled lightly.
"I don't like getting involved in other people's affairs. If I hadn't discovered this monster's weakness, I wouldn't have helped you, Flash Ghost!"
"Cut!"
Flash Ghost sneered, then raised his arm.
The giant skeletal hand grabbed the Steel Shell head lying on the ground, pulled it up, and held it in mid-air, frowning as it spoke.
"What did you just say about this monster?"
"Not a living organism? It's some kind of technological product... How is that possible..."
As they were talking.
He manipulated the giant skeletal hand to shake the Steel Shell violently, scattering electronic components all over the ground.
The Steel Shell giant head was held in the grip of the skull's bony hand, unable to move, while its body dangled in mid-air.
Its big eyes blinked, somewhat puzzled, yet powerless to resist.
It sensed it...
My body seems to be losing strength.
As a special Nen being that grew from a special seed of "justice," it lacked sufficient intelligence, did not understand what had happened, did not understand death, and did not even understand what disappearance was.
At this special moment, it missed its owner a little...
Then.
The Steel Shell's large, gradually weakening eyes then saw, amidst the dense crowd, that unique figure.
That... from the day it was born, it was destined to be the only one in my eyes.
That was its owner...
With his last thought fulfilled, the Steel Shell's once bright and piercing eyes gradually closed.
"Hello..."
Flash Ghost controlled the giant bone hand of the skeleton and shook the Steel Shell a few times in mid-air.
"Is this guy dead? Why isn't he moving!"
"Evil Mage, you seem to have guessed wrong. Even though this guy, who was clearly the monster leader, is dead, the other monsters haven't stopped attacking!"
Flash Ghost curled his lip and said to the Evil Mage beside him.
The Evil Mage smiled calmly and said...
"It's alright. Finding these monsters' weaknesses is enough. We can kill the rest slowly. However, we need to take this one back to the lab; it has significant research value and might be useful to us..."
But at that moment, his words came to an abrupt halt.
His previously calm expression suddenly changed, his pupils contracted, and he involuntarily turned his head to look behind him!
It wasn't just him.
The Flash Ghost beside him was equally horrified, as if he had seen a ghost. Cold sweat poured down his forehead, and he stiffly turned his head to look in that direction along with the Evil Mage.
In that direction.
An ominous thought surged into the sky, enveloping everyone's hearts. Suppressed malice and anger were mixed in with the Nen, making people horrified!
At the same time, it wasn't just the two of them.
At this very moment.
The "Justice Rope" that had been fighting with the crowd all retreated.
The body of the Siming, shrouded in black robes, stiffened, his hand trembled, and the blazing blue flame in his palm almost went out. He quickly turned his head to look!
The burly, blond man sheathed his Golden Gun, pressing it tightly against his body, his expression tense and his face grave.
Yuliya held the demon sword to her side, ready to draw it at any moment. Her pretty face was extremely pale, and her sharp, beast-like eyes were fixed on the direction of that surging Malice.
In that instant, everyone had only one thought in their minds.
What happened!!
The noisy crowd on the street fell silent. Everyone was pale-faced; as ordinary people, they had no way of sensing the presence of Nen.
But... when that terrifying malice became almost tangible.
Even though it wasn't directed at them, everyone's biological instincts made their bodies tremble as they stared in horror at the boy who was walking forward step by step.
They could sense that the source of the immense mental pressure they were under came from this black-haired boy.
People who have experience in politics.
The boy was recognized; he had previously appeared alongside the current Grand Leader Kazan as a spokesperson for the "Justice Rope."
However, at this moment, all they could do was watch in horror as the other person moved forward step by step.
"Pat... pat... pat..."
On the street, only the slow footsteps of one person could be heard, but each step felt like a heavy hammer striking everyone's heart.
The oppressive atmosphere made the air in the entire arena almost suffocating.
The group that had just arrived here through the Anywhere Door also sensed this terrifying and horrifying Nen.
They understand.
The source of this thought was Ian, and everyone's expression changed.
"Truly... terrifying thoughts..." Tsubone's expression was solemn. Her eyes swept across the room and noticed Ian's retreating figure.
No one could have imagined that this young man would become even more terrifying in just a few days.
"Someone has angered Ian..." Uvogin said in a serious voice, his expression grave, no longer trying to be funny.
"Nobunaga, Machi, let's go check it out..."
Hearing Uvogin's words, the others nodded, and Nobunaga said in a deep voice.
"I don't know what happened. This is the first time I've ever seen Ian angry. These guys... they're damn bad..."
Nobunaga said in an icy tone.
Machi clenched her fists. She wasn't worried about the enemy; all she cared about was Ian's feelings.
Feitan to the side, said in a deep voice.
"Let's go together. I also want to see who these suicidal guys are that can make Ian so angry!"
The others followed closely behind.
"Ian's angry... his aura... it's quite astonishing... like a father..."
Ignoring the stunned crowd around her, Eluna floated in mid-air, gazing at Ian's retreating figure, and said with some surprise.
"Hmm... I hope... he won't be too angry..."
"This era is different from ours. A powerful figure like him, destined to reach the top, could cause countless deaths from his wrath if he were to truly become enraged..."
