"Clang!"

The explosion-proof door is severely dented inward.

The steel barrier, several centimeters thick, didn't even last two seconds before being chopped into several pieces of scrap metal.

Metal fragments shot out and struck the precision instruments, exploding into bursts of sparks.

Sing Sing, carrying Pig Butchering Knife, stepped across the ruins on the ground. His black trench coat was covered in dust, but it still couldn't hide the murderous aura that was about to overflow from him.

The scene before me was like a real-life hell on earth.

In the circular hall, a semi-transparent energy field sphere with a diameter of over ten meters floats.

Illyana Nikolaevna Rasputin.

This girl, who was connected to the dimension of Limbo, was now fixed in the very center of the force field sphere, her limbs and spine pierced by several pipes, just like a tattered rag doll.

The girl's eyes widened, and her once clear eyes were now emitting eerie dark purple flames.

Irregular void cracks continuously appeared in the space surrounding the force field sphere, and a low, hoarse demonic roar could be faintly heard coming from behind those cracks.

"Let her go! You bunch of bastards!"

A deafening roar reached Sing Sing's ears.

Colossus was covered in blood, his metallic skin riddled with deep dents and terrifying cracks.

He was frantically rushing towards the center, trying to sever the tubes.

Blocking Colossus's path was a giant Mutants nearly four meters tall with two enormous, deformed heads.

This guy had the word "Rastus" branded in red on his chest.

Before Sing Sing could step forward to help, a soft "bang" came from the high place on the left.

A ventilation vent louver was kicked open with great force.

Li Qianhuan tumbled and scrambled out, finally landing face down on the ground.

Her long yellow overcoat was tattered from the fire, and her face was covered in soot, making her look like a miner who had escaped from a coal mine.

At the same time, Silver Fox followed closely behind, leaping down from a high platform on another side path, landing on his knees to dissipate the impact.

"Those conduits are forcibly stripping the girl of her dimensional energy; she can't hold on much longer."

"Hey bro! Hang in there!"

Sing Sing shouted ahead.

Colossus was knocked back three steps by a heavy punch from the two-headed giant, and the metal mesh plate beneath his feet was severely deformed.

"Stephen! Save her! Please!" Colossus spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva, struggling to withstand the troll's next heavy punch.

Sing Sing turned to look at the Chinese-American girl who was still panting, and pointed his thumb at the energy ball in mid-air.

"Little Fireworks! Can you fix that broken cover?"

Li Qianhuan looked up and bit her lip.

"Drain all your mana! Set off the biggest fireworks ever! Just blast a crack in the turtle shell, and I'll take care of the rest!"

"Are you crazy! This place is a confined space! Such a violent energy explosion would definitely trigger a chain reaction; if it really explodes, we'll all be buried alive!"

As a highly trained intelligence operative, Silver Fox's mind was always calculating survival rates.

Sing Sing's style of play, which involves flipping tables at the drop of a hat, completely violates common tactical principles.

"In our line of work, we're always risking our lives to make money. At worst, I'll cover the bulk of the travel expenses!"

Li Qianhuan gritted her teeth, desperately squeezing out every last bit of energy from her body, her eyes even bursting with a dazzling pinkish-purple light.

All the remaining energy in his body gathered in his palm.

"Try this deluxe version of my specialty, extra big, same price! Go to hell!"

A ball of incandescent white plasma, about the size of a fist and appearing unstable, was released from my hand.

"Boom!"

The unprecedentedly loud explosion nearly shattered everyone's eardrums.

A dazzling yet deadly energy storm swept across the hall. The once indestructible, semi-transparent deflection field rippled violently under the frenzied impact of the explosion. The defense system was on the verge of overload.

A tiny, visible crack finally appeared on the surface of the force field sphere.

"Open it for me!"

Sing Sing tensed his leg muscles and took off from the spot.

His Inner Qi surged wildly within his body like a river, and the Pig Butchering Knife in his hand emitted a low hum.

This strike, with the force to shatter all capitalist exploitation, came crashing down from the sky!

"Snap!"

The force field sphere shattered.

The blade's momentum remained undiminished, severing the tubes deeply embedded in the Magik in two.

As the pipeline ruptured, a massive, frenzied surge of dark purple energy swept wildly in all directions.

Incredibly, Sing Sing twisted his body in mid-air, his hand gripping the shackles binding the Magik. With a forceful squeeze, the shackles snapped in two.

He reached out and pulled the extremely weak girl into his arms.

"Brother... brother..."

With his eyes closed, the Magik let out a weak murmur, his pale face devoid of color, before finally falling into a deep sleep in Sing Sing's arms.

Hearing his sister's faint cry, Colossus, who had been suppressed, raised his head.

Seeing his sister finally free from the blood-drawing pump, the Russian man's anger reached its peak.

"Hurrah!"

Colossus completely ignored the two-headed giant's heavy punches that landed on his back like sandbags.

He slid down and tackled, grabbing Rastus's thigh, which was thicker than a bucket.

Power originates from the ground, and the waist and stance become one!

The windmill is spinning!

At top speed, Colossus released his grip, and the two-headed monster smashed over the control panel in the corner.

Sparks flew everywhere, and the machine was destroyed on the spot.

The resilient monster struggled to get up.

Its two heads were spewing thick green blood, and its limbs were still flailing wildly.

Sing Sing caught a glimpse of this scene, and with a flick of his toe, he sent a loose solid steel pillar flying into the air.

"Get out of here!"

He turned and delivered a powerful spinning kick, the steel pillar enveloped in his Inner Qi flying out with a "whoosh".

"Pfft!"

The steel pillar pierced straight through the giant's chest and was pinned to the wall.

Rastus's head twitched, tilting to the side, his fate unknown.

"Mr. Zhou! Mondo to meet you!"

The paving stones beside him softened, Mondo, sporting a round, smiling face, poked half his body out. (▽)

"Let's go! Mondo, lead everyone away from here!"

"Well done, Little Chubby! You'll get an extra chicken leg this month!"

Sing Sing did not hesitate at all.

Staying in this godforsaken place for even a second longer could lead to trouble. He bounced the Magik in his arms up a bit, then took off running towards Mondo. Silver Fox helped the swaying Li Qianhuan up, Colossus up the rear, and the group quickly gathered together.

Fate did not intend for them to retreat so easily.

Just as Mondo's mud-covered hands touched the hem of Illyana's clothes...

The entire central laboratory collapsed with a deafening roar, and rocks rained down from the sky. The dying giant was smashed in, its head lolling to the side, its fate unknown.

A large, deformed figure was hidden in the smoke and dust, falling from the sky along with the shattered rocks.

Before anyone could react, the long, barbed tongue of the Sugar Man shot out from its mouth!
