"Guardian God," standing atop the armored vehicle, fell in front of everyone present. And this happened right after he had summoned a thunderbolt and killed the Plague Doctor.
No one could remain calm after witnessing this with their own eyes.
Naturally, that included the Deathmatchers mingling in the crowd.
But unlike the worried civilians, the Deathmatchers were thrilled, a few bold ambitions rising in their hearts.
The power Lu Bai had displayed was indeed so overwhelming that it had left them, his competitors, in despair.
If Lu Bai had still been conscious, they definitely wouldn't have dared to act. But now it was obvious he really had fainted.
Any Deathmatcher with even a shred of ambition planned to strike while he was down and finish him off.
The Plague Doctor's appearance had brought Keshanshi City's evacuation to a complete standstill. On top of that, Lu Bai had suddenly collapsed, and the Action Department personnel nearby were all worried about his condition.
At most, they could barely maintain order at the scene. They couldn't—and wouldn't—force the civilians to stay where they were.
Under these circumstances, the Deathmatchers nearby were free to move about.
If a Deathmatcher had been watching from above, they would have clearly seen the many gleaming titles over the crowd gradually moving toward the armored vehicle where Lu Bai lay.
Fortunately, Captain Mao hadn't forgotten the two grenades that had been thrown earlier.
Even without knowing why, he was sure there were bad actors in the crowd.
With that in mind, he immediately carried Lu Bai into the armored vehicle and quickly ordered the nearby Action Department personnel to come and reinforce them.
Less than two or three minutes after Lu Bai had fainted, dozens of fully armed Action Department personnel had already arrived around the armored vehicle.
