Taking the Initiative

The dazzling blue-white light from the Spirit Bomb illuminated the entire containment center as if it were daytime.

"What is that?!"

"It's so bright!"

"What's going on? Why is it still getting bigger?"

In fact, it wasn't just the people in the containment center who were shocked by the Spirit Bomb.

Even Lu Bai, the instigator, was somewhat stunned as he stared at the enormous energy sphere above his head.

From the moment he used the [Spirit Bomb] ability, the condensed sphere of light began to expand rapidly. In the blink of an eye, the diameter of the Spirit Bomb exceeded one kilometer, and it continued to expand.

It's no exaggeration to say that it's practically like rubbing a sun out of your hands.

Lu Bai blinked his slightly sore eyes. "Everyone's really enthusiastic."

Thanks to the unique energy source of the Spirit Bomb, Lu Bai was able to maintain such a massive amount of energy effortlessly.

However, he did not allow the Spirit Bomb to continue expanding and decisively ended the energy accumulation.

Since it's only dealing with one weirdo, further enhancements would be a waste.

Lu Bai slowly pressed down with both hands, controlling the Spirit Bomb, which was over one kilometer in diameter, to smash towards Gao Guan's face.

The sheer size of the sphere of light falling from the sky created an incredibly oppressive atmosphere.

A significant number of survivors remained in the shelter, terrified by the sight. Many collapsed to the ground in shock, screaming in terror.

However, regardless of the reactions from all parties, it will not affect the landing of the Spirit Bomb.

The expected violent explosion did not occur; instead, it was more like a gentle, silent rain.

The people covered by the Spirit Bomb not only did not die, but also felt warm all over, enveloped in what seemed to be an endless supply of energy.

Of course, high-ranking officials who were targets of the Spirit Bomb attack didn't fare so well.

The massive Spirit Bomb seemed to wash over it like an energy tide, causing its deformed body to collapse and disintegrate at a visible speed.

Rumble!!!

Even though the Spirit Bomb itself wasn't an extremely destructive energy source, it still contained an immeasurable amount of energy. The ground and various buildings were still blasted into oblivion, while a large number of ordinary people within the Spirit Bomb's attack range remained unharmed.

The terrifying tremors, like those of a massive earthquake, lasted for several tens of seconds before finally subsiding.

As the Spirit Bomb completely sank into the ground, the bizarre creature named Gao Guan Da Mian vanished without a trace, leaving not even a trace of its remains.

The once flat ground looked as if a giant had scooped it out with a spoon; from a high vantage point, a huge semi-circular depression could be clearly seen.

Three crew members, acting as film crew members, stood behind Lu Bai carrying cameras, all staring in disbelief at the scene before them, as if in a dream.

Is this even something a human could do?!

The live stream room was also completely silent at that moment.

Countless netizens stared intently at the live stream, their expressions frozen.

It's worth mentioning that the Spirit Bomb, being a righteous ability, won't drain the "leeks" (victims) like demonic techniques do.

If you're not careful, you might not even realize that your energy has been drained; at most, you'll just feel a little more tired than usual.

This meant that although Lu Bai kept asking everyone to lend him their power, the people watching the live stream didn't believe at all that they were the ones who created the Spirit Bomb.

Behind Lu Bai and his group, the Temporary command center building had windows crowded with onlookers.

Minister Zhang, his face flushed, slammed his fist on the window frame, unable to contain his excitement.

He took a deep breath, turned to a middle-aged senior official present, and said, "Committee Member Meng, activate the broadcasting authority and make sure everyone in the shelter is notified so that the public can do their best to protect themselves and patiently wait for rescue."

At first, I thought it was just a simple suicide mission, and I figured that even if I died, I had to find a way to make the monster feel pain.

However, it now seems that this seemingly bizarre all-out attack is not entirely without hope of suppression.

After all, Master Lu has clearly become stronger now.

"That's amazing..."

Captain Mao looked at Lu Bai with admiration, instinctively wanting to give him the utmost respect. "Master Lu, what do we do next?"

Let's find the next weirdo.

As Lu Bai replied, he looked down at his right hand.

He clenched his fist, opened it, and then clenched it again, repeating this process as if to check the energy depletion he had experienced after using the Spirit Bomb.

Snap~ Snap~ Snap~

A mocking metallic clang rang out, instantly drawing the attention of everyone present.

Lu Bai looked up and saw a tall figure wearing a brown-black top hat and a red and green striped sweater.

The opponent had no right hand; instead, it possessed an iron claw made of an unknown metal.

No wonder that even though the other party was clapping, the sound was metallic clanging.

"Why bother looking? I came here myself."

Apart from Lu Bai, everyone who saw this strange-looking creature paled in shock.

Captain Mao's pupils constricted, and his jaw trembled slightly. "Sequence 04— Freddy."

The sequence does not represent the intensity of the strangeness, but rather its threat to humanity as a whole.

Because Freddy Krueger's main characteristic is that he likes to kill in his dreams.

After all, humans are creatures that cannot go without sleep, which means that anyone could potentially be killed by Freddy at night.

Therefore, in the official think tank's assessment, Freddy possessed the ability to destroy the entire human civilization single-handedly.

As Freddy emerged from the building's shadow, it was immediately apparent that his exposed skin was charred and pockmarked, a sight that was enough to send chills down one's spine.

It bowed slightly towards Lu Bai, its posture quite elegant.

"I saw the energy ball just now. The power you possess is truly terrifying. No wonder you were able to kill the Plague Doctor."

I can't withstand such an attack either, so you'd better come play with me in my dreams. So, everyone...

"Good night."

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire film crew, Captain Mao, Minister Zhang, and all the senior executives in the building closed their eyes and lay down on the ground.

However, this does not include Lu Bai.

He casually flicked his hand, pulled a Yellow Talisman from his pocket, and his smile became even more amiable.

"Sorry, I don't want to sleep right now."

He had some understanding of the strangeness of those at the beginning of the sequence, so when Freddy appeared, he was prepared in advance and interrupted the hypnosis with a [Flash Time].

After tossing the Yellow Talisman at Freddy, he added with a chuckle, "But your strangeness is too dangerous; I can't let you live."
