To be honest, the power of the prison system simply cannot eradicate all the evil in the city.

However, eradicating isolated criminal gangs in places like Chikan Bay or Weidao High School is not a major problem.

Even dealing with two criminal gangs in one fell swoop is not without a chance of success.

The problem is that the prison authorities have no incentive to do so; maintaining a semblance of stability is sufficient for them.

Such a special operation, led by the Warden and involving several Section Chief, is quite rare.

The reason for such urgency is mainly because the two dark places that Lu Bai created in the prison, which covered nearly two-thirds of the prison area, had a very bad impact.

Without eliminating these dark areas, the prison simply cannot function properly.

The Warden Xiong Pi, dressed in formal attire, strode to the passenger seat of an troop carrier and sat down.

He rested one arm on the rolled-down window sill, cleared his throat, adjusted his headset, and said, "Everyone get in the car, get ready to depart."

"Phew~"

Simba breathed a sigh of relief, having almost recovered.

Although he didn't sense any strange noises around him, he still raised his hands and entered combat mode. "Didn't you hit me?"

After all, the darkness in front of us has not yet dissipated, and it's impossible to be optimistic no matter what we think.

In fact, after barely dodging Simba's astonishingly powerful punch, Lu Bai immediately threw himself into hunting down the deathmatch fighters, paying no attention to Simba's situation at all.

Under the cover of darkness, he mercilessly swung his fist, smashing it into the chin of a deathmatch fighter.

The inhuman force propelled the opponent's body several meters into the air before finally crashing heavily to the ground.

[Bite!]

[Points +16, Current Points: 23, Current Rank: 1/151]

The system notification ended, and Lu Bai turned to search for his next target.

However, after he controlled the darkness to descend, apart from a few unlucky souls who couldn't tell which way was which, almost all the other deathmatch fighters fled in the opposite direction without prior agreement.

During the time that Lu Bai had been hunting under cover of darkness, the faster fighters were almost out of the darkness.

It wasn't that Lu Bai deliberately reduced the area shrouded in darkness.

The [Ink Dye] ability is indeed very useful. Even if you only see the tip of an iceberg of a building, you can turn the entire building, including the air inside, completely black.

However, it should be noted that this ability has a limitation: it can only blacken what is within sight.

If you can't see even a tiny bit, then unless you can see through objects, you can't apply the [Ink Dye] effect to them.

The area managed by the Nanxing Association is characterized by its dense housing.

As far as the eye can see, there are buildings of all shapes and sizes, densely packed together.

To avoid revealing this limitation, Lu Bai preferred to make the area stained black smaller, ensuring that the darkness was spherical.

However, precisely because of this, it would indeed be much easier for these deathmatchers to escape the darkness-shrouded area.

Seeing the fighters scattering in all directions, Lu Bai knew that maintaining the dark area was pointless and would only hinder the actions of his Grandmaster. So he simply waved his hand and dispelled the darkness in front of him.

In an instant, light returned, and the entire street fell into a brief silence. After a while, various exclamations and noisy commotion gradually resumed.

Dao Zhengmu seemed to have been preparing to make his move as soon as the darkness dissipated. In an instant, he leaped up and attacked Simba, who had his back to him, his long-awaited fist aimed at Simba's vest.

In that critical moment, the scene seemed to slow down.

Dao Zhengmu watched as Simba quickly turned his body to the side and raised his hand to firmly grasp his fist. Then, the scene suddenly shook violently, and his body flipped over and slammed heavily to the ground.

Dust billowed high around the two men, and the terrifying force slammed the ground, creating a crater over ten meters in diameter.

Dao Zhengmu lay on his back on the ground, his fingers twitching as if trying to grasp something.

He tried to struggle to his feet and fight again, but his body was no longer under his control; every bone and muscle was sending him signals of pain.

Originally, many of the students on Taijima Island had considered giving up due to the arrival of darkness, but now, witnessing Simba kill a veteran Grandmaster from Chikan Bay, they were all so excited that they shouted incoherently.

Their summit on Ojima Island hasn't fallen yet, so why say Ojima Island has lost?

At this moment, the closest person to Simba was the White-Browed Bat King, who shook his head inwardly as he looked at Dao Zhengmu's miserable state.

It all happened so suddenly that he didn't even have time to help.

Simba was not proud of this; to him, there was nothing to boast about in defeating such an old and frail Grandmaster.

He spotted Lu Bai in the crowd and shouted, "Lu Bai! Since you're the Spokesperson of Chikan Bay, let's have a fair fight according to the rules of the underworld!"

The sound carried far; it could be heard clearly even from three or four streets away.

Changhu, Huangfu Zhuo, and three other fighters who happened to have chosen the same escape route ran together through the crowded streets.

They had already run quite a distance, but even after hearing Simba's shouts, they showed no intention of turning back.

"Damn it, how did they do that?"

As Changhu ran, he asked incredulously.

Even when Lu Bai beat him up at the gate of Weidao High School, it didn't make him feel as humiliated as he does now.

After all, he had not yet successfully stepped into the realm of martial arts, so even if he were defeated, it was not something he could not accept.

The problem is, he only just realized that Lu Bai was just teasing him at the school gate.

Once the other party got serious, they didn't even target him intentionally, leaving him with no choice but to run away with his tail between his legs.

Not to mention, this Deathmatch Showdown had only been going on for less than two weeks, and Lu Bai had already taken control of Chikan Bay.

Both his personal strength and sphere of influence are on another level, something that a mere fighter could never achieve.

"He is definitely the Clever Mephisto. Only someone with a talent level of over 100 points could become Grandmaster martial artist in such a short time."

Huangfu Zhuo couldn't help but turn around and glance back, his tone extremely solemn.

He was certain that even if all the fighters gathered their strength now, they wouldn't be able to shake Lu Bai in the slightest.

Thinking of this, he unconsciously turned his gaze to Changhu.

Since it's obvious we can't win this battle, then perhaps...

Unfortunately, before he could take any action, he noticed that the atmosphere at the street entrance was a bit off.

It was so quiet, so very quiet.

It was unusually quiet; there were hardly any pedestrians, even those who usually enter Chikan Bay from the street corner, in sight.
