Meanwhile, in front of the gate of Blackthorn Security Company,

The partitioned space was now a scene of bloodshed and madness, where Luther's fleshy mass was writhing and swallowing all six human bodies.

With each body swallowed, the mass of flesh writhed faster. Even after it was completely consumed, the mass of flesh did not increase in size much. It slowly shrank back and reconstructed itself amidst the violent writhing, taking on the basic outline of a human figure, but still remaining blood-red.

Its abdomen, Ms. M's beautiful face are lifelike.

"Leonard, what should we do?"

The short, Kenley said with extreme nervousness,

The streets had been evacuated by now, and Dunn had not yet returned with Saint Selena's Ashes, but the Monster looked like it was about to appear!

Leonard gritted his teeth, listened intently, and was about to speak when he suddenly turned around in surprise.

"Stare!"

Firm footsteps came from behind the door, and Dunn strode out. In his hands he held a palm-sized square urn, silver-white in color, with strange patterns carved on it.

The box exuded a serene yet chilling aura. As soon as Dunn approached, Leonard and Kenley felt a bone-chilling cold, as if their blood were about to freeze. Even Dunn himself, who was holding the box, had his eyes tinged with a deep blue.

Beside Dunn was Klein, who was following closely behind, holding a thick vein in his hand.

"Give this to me."

Leonard took the blood vessel and said to Dunn, "Captain, it's an emergency."

"Um."

Dunn frowned as he looked at the humanoid Monster inside. "Kenley, go down below and help Siga suppress the Sealed Artifact. Leave this to us."

"But."

"Go quickly! You can't help here!"

"Yes!"

After driving Kenley away, only three Nighthawks remained.

Dunn took a deep breath, stepped down the stairs, and came to the isolated space. Facing the Monster that was originally Luther, he slowly lifted the lid of the urn. Inside the urn were grains of brilliant and deep sand, as if they had absorbed all the light shining on them, like a magnificent and beautiful starry night Astral World.

At noon on Zouteland Street, the sky suddenly darkened.

In the deep, dark air, countless black threads suddenly appeared. If Luther were still conscious, he would have recognized these threads as those behind the Chanis Gate, and it was these threads that had helped him temporarily escape Ms. M's surveillance.

The fine threads were cold and slippery, and as if they had automatically discovered the most evil presence in the place, they spread towards Luther.

"Splash-"

The barrier that the Nighthawks found impenetrable was easily shattered by the fine threads, making a sound. Countless threads stretched out swiftly and silently, surrounding the still-forming Flesh Monster. The Monster, which had been restless and agitated, gradually quieted down under the influence of the threads, shrinking its body.

It stopped moving.

Great opportunity!

Klein and Leonard's eyes lit up, and they quickly walked down the steps.

Leonard raised his Revolver, while Klein reached into his pocket and grasped the warm, golden talisman. The "Sun Flame" talisman...

A powerful talisman created by praying to the blood of the True God!

But before they could make a move, the Monster wrapped in black threads made its move.

Suddenly, the beautiful woman's face on the Monster's belly opened her eyes!

"Boom!"

Crimson flames ignited within the silk threads, the flames like fireworks, brilliant yet fleeting. As the flames vanished, the Monster also disappeared without a trace.

"Careful!"

The Clown's precognitive abilities allowed Klein to see a vision of the future. He shouted and kicked Leonard away. The next instant, Monster emerged from their shadows, its vicious teeth tearing at the air. If it weren't for Klein, Leonard's head would have been bitten off.

Black threads quickly gathered around them, encircling the Monster. Taking advantage of the Monster's obstruction, the two retreated rapidly, reaching Dunn's side.

"Stay vigilant!"

Dunn said solemnly, "This Monster likely possesses multiple abilities!"

The ring, imbued with the Characteristic of Shepherd, had been turned into Potion, and coupled with the bizarre and frenzied Ritual performed by these people, Dunn could easily guess that his enemies might have become Shepherd.

"Brush!"

The Monster escaped the black threads once again and appeared in the middle of the street.

Its Flesh exterior is slowly healing, gradually transforming into a healthy human skin. The woman's face, which was originally on its abdomen, is moving upwards, seemingly trying to replace Luther's face and gain complete control of the body.

That beautiful yet eerie face now wore an enigmatic smile.

"Ms. Lorotta, I think I heard something on that street."

On the moving black carriage, Cecilia couldn't help but speak.

"Really? I didn't hear that."

"Lorotta" said with a smile, but malice lurked in her eyes.

That's because your brother is becoming a sacrifice for Ms. M.

She thought to herself with undisguised delight,

She, along with "El Hassen" and "Borgia," were originally Ms. M's subordinates. They were scattered elsewhere when the incident occurred in Enmat Harbor and thus escaped unscathed. However, Ms. M's departure was undoubtedly a major blow to them, as everyone held Ms. M in the highest esteem; her existence was second only to the Great Lord, bringing light to their lives.

Now that they have met Ms. M again and learned about this great plan from her, they naturally support Ms. M unconditionally and are willing to give everything for her.

It's about time. I'll kill this silly girl, then I'll go back over there and see if things go smoothly.

She thought to herself, her right hand already Concealment touching the dark red Ritual dagger.

"Ms. Lorotta, will I be able to see my brother again after we arrive in Backlund?"

"Of course."

Of course not, because your brother has already become a sacrifice.

She said insincerely, looking at the beautiful girl in front of her without any guilt, "Once you two Tranquility down, you can still live together..."

Living together my ass, let's go to hell together!

She gripped the hilt of the dagger tightly and said to Cecilia, "By the way, do you know the way to the train station? Have we gone the wrong way?"

Upon hearing her question, Cecilia leaned out the window to look at the street scene and determine the carriage's location.

Lorotta had been waiting for this moment; she pulled out a dagger and stabbed it into the girl's vest.

However, in the next instant, she saw the girl move nimbly and Feather Fall to the side, as if she had eyes in the back of her head, avoiding her dagger. At the same time, she quickly twisted her body, a cold light flashed before her eyes, and she immediately felt a sharp chill in her chest.

"Why."

Feeling the power draining from her body, she said, both unwilling and puzzled.

"Your murderous intent is too obvious; even street thugs can hide it better than you."

Cecilia said coldly, drew her knife, and stabbed again, continuing until the other was completely dead.

After killing her opponent, she rushed out of the carriage, not sparing the driver either. Once all the enemies were dealt with, she nimbly jumped off the carriage, her eyes filled with worry, and ran towards Zouteland Street.
