Swiftly, in Accordance with the Law

"Illyana is awake!"

Sing Sing Chow dashed out of the prison area, and the Livestream Orb, dragging its body covered in wires, chased after him, its two TV antennas swaying wildly along the way.

Da Vinci chased after him for a few steps but found he couldn't keep up at all. His old arms and legs were simply too weak to move, so he could only shout at the top of his lungs:

"Don't run too fast! The equipment on that ball hasn't been paid for yet; it'll incur roaming charges if it goes outside the service area!"

"Screw you! You can use that money to pay for Sabretooth's food!"

All the alarm lights in the Medical Zone were on.

Medical staff pushed the injured out of the passageway. Several cuts were made across the isolation door, and the sound of cabinets overturning could be heard from inside.

The silver-white greatsword pierced through the isolation door, slashing horizontally and breaking the door panel in two.

Xiao Liu paced back and forth outside, looking extremely anxious.

Sing Sing darted to his side and asked in confusion, "It's just someone waking up, why is it like a demolition crew is coming in?"

"Oh my, my living ancestor Zhou Chu, you've finally arrived!"

"That old lady inside isn't awake, she's come back from the dead! She opens her eyes and starts attacking people, even her own brother!"

Another sword flash swept across the doorway, instantly slicing off a piece of the riot shield blocking the two people.

Inside the isolation chamber, Colossus crossed his arms to brace against the Soulsword, his right foot crushing two floor tiles, his body covered in burn marks.

The Magik had long, flowing golden hair, his blue eyes had turned jet black, dark patterns had appeared on his cheeks, and black energy swirled around his shoulders and back, moving back and forth along the armor he wore.

"Ili! Look at me, it's Piotr!"

Colossus called out his sister's nickname, but still refused to exert any force with his hands.

The Magik twisted his waist and drew his sword, the blade striking his chin, then raised his knee and slammed it into his chest.

Sing Sing glanced at Xiao Liu, "Give me the details, get to the point."

"Fifteen minutes ago, the observation equipment suddenly malfunctioned, and the spatial fluctuations directly exceeded the safety limit. The temperature in the ward plummeted, and a strange sulfurous smell filled the air."

Xiao Liu swallowed hard, still shaken. "The moment she opened her eyes, without saying a word, she conjured this giant sword and started slashing at anyone in her path! Doctor Wang, who was on duty just now, was a hair's breadth away from losing half his leg!"

"So you're not using tranquilizer guns? Not using stun nets?"

"I was ready to use it! But that fiercely protective sister inside won't let me!"

Xiao Liu was on the verge of tears. "Colossus stubbornly stopped me, saying that my sister was suffering from neurasthenia and possessed by a demon from hell, and was out of her mind."

"He said our equipment would hurt her and insisted on suppressing her himself. And what happened? After all that trouble, he got stabbed more than a dozen times, while she didn't even lose a hair!"

Xiao Liu gritted his teeth and threatened, "He can't bring himself to use force. If this keeps dragging on, I'll have to call the emergency response team! Director Zhou, if you can't take her down, I really will call for help!"

As he spoke, the Soulsword unleashed another Splitting Mount Hua in two.

Colossus grunted, raised his arm to take the hit, and sparks flew half a meter high.

It's only thanks to this guy's sturdy build that he's like a piece of steel.

If an ordinary person had gone in, the medical staff would probably be stuffing meat filling into their lunchboxes right now.

Sing Sing stroked his chin, looking constipated. "Xiao Liu... I know a little bit of the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms and a little bit of swordsmanship, but I've never had a heart-to-heart talk with a demon."

A blue halo flashed, and the Soulsword pierced out from behind Sing Sing.

Before Xiao Liu could react, Sing Sing grabbed his shoulder and slid away.

The sword's edge grazed the TV antenna of the Livestream Orb, slicing off half of it. The Livestream Orb shook a few times, then quickly hid behind Sing Sing, faithfully continuing its live broadcast.

Missing his first attack, the Magik retreated into the light circle again, disappearing from sight only to reappear a second above Colossus's head, his greatsword pressing down on the black aura and slashing straight at the top of his brother's head.

Colossus didn't have time to turn around, so he could only turn his head to the side, taking a sword strike to his shoulder armor and crashing into the medicine cabinet.

"Ili... stop, please!"

The younger sister didn't respond. He raised his sword to stab her again, but Colossus leaned against the cabinet door and stood up. He raised his right fist halfway, stared at that familiar face, and ultimately couldn't bring himself to punch her.

"Damn it, I can't stand it anymore. This siscon is hopeless."

Sing Sing gritted his teeth, secretly gathering his courage, mentally preparing himself for the possibility of beating the little girl and then being scolded by Colossus.

Just as he lifted his foot, preparing to step into this hellish scene...

"Call out--"

A bright yellow object, as if it had eyes, flew through the corridor at an absurd speed, grazed Xiao Liu's ear, and headed straight for Sing Sing.

Um?

What kind of hidden weapon?

Sing Sing reacted quickly, reaching out with his right hand and firmly clamping it between two fingers.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a yellow paper talisman with cinnabar runes drawn on it!

Sing Sing's eyes lit up, "Ling Ling Yi is back?"

Now I have complete confidence.

Director Zhou immediately straightened up, his back and legs no longer aching.

He held the yellow talisman between two fingers, raised it high above his head, assumed a posture of focusing his energy in his dantian, and with a thunderous roar, shouted:

"Heaven and earth are boundless, the universe borrows its power, so be it! Break!"

The yellow talisman burst into crimson flames, its ashes swirling and dispersing. The ever-opening purple-blue aura closed simultaneously, and the spatial fluctuations quickly subsided.

Magik was holding his sword, and a dimensional portal had just lit up beneath his feet as he prepared to cut into the back row when the light circle flickered and disappeared with a "pop" sound, as if it had short-circuited.

Magik lost his balance and stumbled forward, nearly falling face-first into the mud.

As the burnt-out yellow talisman left its last bit of ash, the Magik raised his face, and amidst surging black energy, he charged at Old Zhou with the massive sword that resembled a door panel.

"Hey, hey, let's talk this out!"

Sing Sing raised his hand and slapped the sword, causing the Soulsword to deflect.

Using minimal force to achieve maximum effect.

The Soulsword was knocked off its course and struck the wall beside it.

"I have principles! I never hit women!"

As for how he beat the Lady Deathstrike into a state of inability to take care of herself in the Congo Rainforest a while ago, he has now selectively forgotten that.

As he spoke, Sing Sing grabbed her wrist that was holding the sword, but was quickly forced back half a step.

Still unfazed, Sing Sing Chow continued his flirtatious banter, "Hmm... but you're registered as a demon right now, so the gender field doesn't count!"

With the greatsword pressed against his chest, Sing Sing caught the blade with both palms, his shoes scraping against the broken bricks as he staggered back several steps.

The Magik continued to press down with both arms, and black energy flowed into the sword blade along the hilt. The sword tip slowly approached his heart. Colossus wanted to rush over, but was afraid of disrupting Sing Sing's movements.

At the crucial moment, Sing Sing revealed a strange smile and stepped on the back of the Magik's foot.

While the Magik was in pain, the shameless Zhou took the opportunity to loosen his grip on the sword, slipped, and crawled into her arms.

He slapped his wrist open, pressed his thumb against his elbow, and braced his shoulder against the armor. At the same time, his Inner Qi surged into the Magik's acupoints, and the Soulsword was instantly released from his hand and plunged into the ground.

The dark lines on the Magik's forehead spread rapidly. He opened his mouth and exhaled a cloud of black gas. His silver shoulder guards flipped up into sharp corners, and his five fingers formed claws as he scratched at Sing Sing's face.

"You'll have to pay for the disfigurement!"

Sing Sing tilted his head, narrowly dodging the Nine Yin White Bone Claw.

Immediately afterwards, his arm wrapped around the Magik's arm like a snake.

This Bone-Dislocating Hand is very sophisticated and will never damage the joints; it emphasizes a green and healthy approach.

"Blind Massage Hands, specially designed to cure waking-up idiocy!"

The Inner Qi pressed into the meridians along the back of her neck. The Magik's body trembled, and black energy spewed out from her body, only to be blocked by the talisman ash on the wall and shrink back into her body.

She tried to struggle, but Sing Sing switched hands and pressed several acupoints on her shoulder well, quchi point, and waist. Her legs lost strength, and she fell forward.

Once he realized the other party was powerless to resist, Sing Sing reached out and pulled the Magik into his arms.

The dark lines on the Magik's face slowly faded, and his magical armor dissipated.

His eyelids twitched slightly a few times, and the Magik finally slowly opened his eyes.

She blinked, her gaze gradually focusing.

What catches the eye is a blue and white striped hospital gown.

Looking further up, she saw a face with a somewhat roguish air, grinning at her.

Most importantly, the stranger's hand was tightly around her waist, and their posture was ambiguous; she could even feel his breathing.

Magik's brain froze for a fraction of a second, then he instinctively raised his right hand.

"Smack!!"
