Lin Yu: You think I don't have people in the Marauders?
"Waaaaah--!"
Before the "Celestial King," the severed tongue and blood continued to swell and expand, forming a kind of "Magic Array" made entirely of flesh and blood in mid-air!
This Magic Array, like any other Magic Array, has magical runes and magical pathways, and it also emits magical fluctuations and light.
The difference is...
Those runes and patterns were not formed from "magic," but were "Entities" formed from flesh and blood!
However, the flesh and blood contained an almost super-large amount of magic, which was almost indistinguishable from a materialized magic crystal, and even showed some crystallization characteristics. Therefore, the magic transmission effect was even better than that of ordinary Magic Array.
These fleshy, neat and fresh-looking pieces, while initially causing dizziness and physical discomfort, do not appear "ugly."
These floating Magic Array made of flesh and blood surrounded the Celestial King, even possessing a somewhat "eerie" beauty.
It's like the visuals in a cult film shot by Director and Photographer with high American intelligence but unique and eccentric tastes.
The flesh and blood Magic Array expanded and grew, emitting blood-red crystals that almost completely blocked the view of everyone in the "Freedom Alliance".
Surrounded by Magic Array of flesh and blood, the Celestial King, his mouth full of blood, laughed.
"The Freedom Alliance... You certainly have a lot of people, but it is precisely because you have a large number that your awareness of 'fighting' is different from mine."
"Although I can no longer fight you, in terms of the degree to which our respective 'objectives' have been achieved... I have won!"
The Celestial King issued his "declaration of victory".
Despite losing most of her tongue and having copious amounts of blood gushing from her mouth, the Celestial King's voice remained clear and unambiguous, as if she didn't need to rely on her tongue to adjust her pronunciation.
Old Wu swung his Chainsaw, hacking at the Entities blood and flesh Magic Array, making the scene even more "bloody and gory," and making it look even more like a scene from a Category III cult film.
He said in a cold voice.
"You can't hold us off forever," Celestial King... Even with such a huge sacrifice and the use of this forbidden Forbidden Spell, you're only delaying us for a little longer."
As Old Wu spoke, the Celestial King nodded, took out a handkerchief, and wiped the blood from his mouth.
"But I only need to stall you for a moment."
The Rainbow Binding Ribbon in her hands bound the Chancellor, and then she raised her staff again.
"Click, click..."
The sound of shattering air rang out again, and in the reflection of the surrounding glass curtain wall, the Celestial King's figure began to fade and disappear!
"She's trying to run!"
Qianhuan's urgent voice rang out.
"Everyone fucking knows that, the problem is how to stop him!"
Old Zhou cursed, his Twin Crutches crackling with electricity. With Frankenstein's help, he approached the "Celestial King," but was still blocked by the "Flesh and Blood Magic."
The Comedian put away the inflatable hammer and pulled out a megaphone and a dozen balloons. "Tear open a hole, give the 'Fishing Man' a chance to cast his line... Once the 'Fishing Man' locks onto her, things will be easy!"
Chen Le agreed, "That's right... As long as I can cast the line, I can catch it back even if it gets away."
Listening to their tactical exchange, the Celestial King let out a cold laugh.
"Sorry, you don't have that chance anymore... because your opponent from now on won't just be me."
"On the way here... I brought two troublesome guys over for you—well, I'm not sure which side they think is more despicable, but the 'Diviner' said they'll actually be an asset at this moment, so I'll just believe him for now."
As he spoke, the Celestial King turned and disappeared into the air, the air once again making a "crashing" sound.
With the disappearance of the Celestial King, the power of flesh magic also weakened considerably.
However, the members of the "Freedom Alliance" did not experience any relief from the pressure or gain the opportunity to pursue the "Celestial King".
Because it was almost the same time...
"Whoosh--!"
Two figures landed atop the two tallest office buildings!
The Celestial King's final burst of laughter echoed through the air.
"It's up to you now, friends of the 'Freedom Alliance'."
As the Celestial King finished speaking, more than ten sword energies crisscrossed and slashed towards the members of the "Freedom Alliance".
Interspersed among the sword energy were colored chalk particles that made a sound comparable to an intercontinental ballistic missile cutting through the air.
"Swordsman, Bifang! Damn it—how could the 'Marauders' manage to get help from 'Order'?!"
Old Zhou cursed loudly as he parried the newcomer's attack.
Qianhuan immediately spoke up, "The two experts from 'Order' and 'Night Watcher' have misunderstood—we are not on the same side as 'The Marauders'... We just rescued your organization's 'Director'."
Old Wu immediately chimed in, "That's right. Although we have a history of grudges, and I know we're not exactly 'good people,'... right now, your organization should be able to prioritize... We should join forces to deal with the 'Marauders.'"
Li Nian quickly nudged Lin Yu.
"Director, please explain yourself clearly."
Lin Yu narrowed his eyes.
He knew that if he spoke up... it would most likely be useless.
"Celestial King" isn't that clever; her action plan was devised by the "Diviner," a point Celestial King herself just made up...
Since it's the "Diviner's" plan, the outcome can't be changed just because I speak out.
But since there was no harm in trying, Lin Yu spoke up anyway.
"Comrades, the people of the 'Freedom Alliance' really just saved me!"
From the rooftop, the "Swordsman's" voice came. "Is that so, Director?... Then you should hide in a safe place as much as possible."
"Because the intelligence we received wasn't like that... The organization just updated the threat level this morning. In this special operation in Shenzhen, all members of the 'Freedom Alliance' must be dealt with more seriously than the 'Marauders'!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yu immediately realized...
My guess was correct; the "Chancellor" is indeed a figure within "Order" who can even influence strategic decisions at the organizational level.
He's at least a regional Inspector.
No wonder the "Celestial King" said those things, and the "Diviner" devised such a plan... No wonder the "Chancellor" was so fearless from beginning to end.
Li Nian looked at Lin Yu and cursed, "Damn it, look at you people from 'Order,' how can you be like this—we were clearly trying to help."
Lin Yu's face also showed apology. "I'm sorry, I'm still just a nobody..."
As he spoke, Li Nian saw Lin Yu apologize and couldn't bring herself to blame him anymore.
She pursed her lips and said, "It's okay, I know you're just a low-level cadre, it's not your fault... What do we do now, Brother Le?"
Li Nian naturally looked at Chen Le, who had already put away the explosives and landed back on the ground, and asked.
Chen Le sighed, "What else can we do? Whether the 'Order' people were manipulated or not... it's not the first time we've fought them, so we might as well fight!"
"Besides, even if they want to talk about reconciliation now, it's too late!"
Chen Le looked up at the sky.
Comedian, Old Wu, Old Zhou, and Xiao Yun had already rushed towards "Swordsman" and "Bifang's " faces, and were fighting each other in the air.
Chen Le turned to Lin Yu: "What are you planning to do? Help you organize these people? You're not going to help us, are you...? If you want to contribute, then go and exchange a few blows with Li Nian."
Upon hearing this, Li Nian immediately covered her nose. "Brother Le, what are you saying?"
Lin Yu shook his head. "You just saved my life. I'm not an animal, how could I possibly lay a hand on you?"
"Now it really is a dilemma of 'loyalty and righteousness,' isn't it?"
Chen Le joked.
Lin Yu smiled helplessly, "That's not wrong... so I've decided to avoid facing this situation."
"Fishing Man, thank you again for saving me—I'm leaving here now."
Chen Le raised an eyebrow. "Then let me ask you one more question, what are you going to do next?"
"Following the Chancellor."
As Lin Yu spoke, Chen Le patted him on the shoulder.
"Then hurry up and go—I need to go help the 'Inventor' and the 'Comedian' too."
Lin Yu nodded, then turned and rushed into the rain.
Li Nian spat out the chewing gum, somewhat annoyed.
"Pah... Are you really going to let him go like this, Brother Le?"
Chen Le said in a low voice, "It doesn't matter. We're not helping him because of his position... Don't forget, he saved you too."
Li Nian sighed, "That's exactly why I'm unhappy... Honestly, why can't they just join us directly?"
"If I really join, I'm afraid you'll be unhappy."
Chen Le unhooked the Fishing Rod and replaced it with a larger, golden hook, saying...
Li Nian pondered for a moment, as if she were imagining something, and then nodded heavily.
"Brother Le, what you said really makes sense!"
On the other side, through the rain.
Lin Yu exhaled and wiped the rain off his face.
"Truly impressive," the Chancellor. "... I never imagined that there was another person in the world besides myself who could simultaneously utilize the completely opposing forces of the 'Marauders,' 'Order,' and 'Night Watcher' to achieve their own goals and plans."
"I underestimated you. To be able to infiltrate 'Order' for so long, you're definitely not a simple character."
"But... ha, what a pity."
Lin Yu pressed the pocket watch in his hand, and his expression changed once again.
"You probably can't imagine... not only the 'Freedom Alliance,' but also the Marauders,' I have the same ways to exploit them."
As Lin Yu spoke, he took out his phone and made a voice call to "A'yu".
"Hey, Sister Yu... where are you right now?"
"I was knocked unconscious just now, but I've just woken up—I'm going to find you."
