On the street below, a chaotic battle was already in full swing.
The man wielding the longsword kept the man with the Metal Gauntlets occupied, while the other two held back E-49, fighting with ease beneath the roars of its mountain-sized body.
But in truth, all four of them had held back a devastating trump card!
They were just waiting for E-49 to falter before unleashing it and finishing it off!
Then they would claim the special reward from this special scenario!
As it happened, all four were extremely confident in the power of their killing blows.
I found it first. The kill will definitely be mine! the man controlling Wind Blades thought.
Just a little longer, just a little longer, and I'll... This was the thought of the sinister man holding the sword.
Hmph, what a bunch of pathetic clowns! thought the imposing, burly man wearing the enormous Metal Gauntlets, who also had the highest rank.
The last man sneered to himself. Don't think I don't know what you're plotting. But when it comes to power, how could you compare to me? He touched a special pistol at his waist and sneered again.
All four of them were supremely confident.
Yet at that very instant, a thick bolt of lightning suddenly shot out and slammed into the ground where the four stood with the force of a charging dragon!
An electric ring instantly spread out!
In the blink of an eye, a huge ring of electricity surrounded everyone!
"What!? This is...!!!"
Disbelief rose in all four of their hearts. Electromagnetic energy raced across the ground, and none of them had time to lift their feet off it!
Violent high-voltage electricity surged directly into their bodies!
"AAAAAHHHH~~"
Screams filled the air!
The confident group of four was the first to get wiped out.
Then the girl leaped out from behind the billboard, dispelled the Electromagnetic Barrier, and lightly clapped her hands. Smiling, she looked at the remaining E-49, failing to notice that the residual high-voltage current seemed to be flowing toward the supermarket building closest to her.
"Phew. Now no one in this scenario can steal the target from me."
The girl smiled confidently, but the moment her words fell—
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!!!
Deep explosions rumbled from somewhere very close!
The girl's expression changed drastically. She hurriedly prepared to force an attack and kill E-49, but before she could take more than a few steps, the supermarket building over ten meters away suddenly began to shake!
Then it collapsed like a pile of building blocks!
BOOM!
CRASH!!!
In the equipment room, Ling had just flown out of the room after setting the detonation conditions when she heard a deep blast behind her.
Ling froze. Then she thought, That deep explosion sounded exactly like the support columns I set up to explode~
Then the entire building began to shake and collapse, as if an earthquake had struck!
Ling: "."
So which bastard had detonated it right after she set the conditions, damn it!!!
The confident Ling got wiped out right after them.
Meanwhile, on the rooftop, two scaredy-cats huddled beneath a pitch-black robe trembled as they watched the scene below unfold like a mantis stalking a cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it.
"Holy crap, bro, she's so calculating!" Fang Ran stared in shock at the girl, who was clearly the strongest one there and had even laid a trap.
"Stay calm, little bro. This is common sense in Night Battle," Meng Lang said without surprise.
"Say, bro, don't you think the two of us look kind of gay like this?"
"Can't help it. The robe's only this big. Bear with it, little bro."
The two continued their meaningless conversation, planning to enjoy the spectacle of "Lightning Girl massacres black monster.jpg" from high above. But just then, as though the ground beneath their feet had suddenly dropped, they felt the building move.
"Bro, did you feel that shake just now? It feels like we're tipping forward?" Fang Ran asked, swallowing hard.
"Little bro, trust me. That was definitely just your imagination," Meng Lang frantically explained as he wiped away cold sweat.
Then—
BOOM!!!
The building collapsed, completely shattering the two cowards' fantasies.
The howling wind of their fall blew their hair into a complete mess, twisting their faces in terror.
The two cowards clung desperately to the rooftop railing. Screaming like pigs being slaughtered, they used every ounce of their strength as they watched the building beneath their feet smash violently toward the ground!
"AAAAAHHHH!! WE'RE DOOMED!!!!!"
"AAAAAHHHH!! WE'RE DOOMED!!!!!"
The confident fools got wiped out too.
"ROAR!!!"
Lightning flashed as the girl charged toward E-49 at high speed. She did not know whose doing this was, nor did she know who had blown up the building (.), but she knew that as long as she killed E-49, it would all be worth it!
"Lightning!"
Electricity surged around her wrist. With an Ability identical to that of a certain famous anime girl, a high-voltage current shot from her hand!
"ROAR!!"
E-49 let out an unpleasant howl. It was among the top fifty of E-Rank, strong and sturdy, with a massive body capable of easily sending a car flying. Its hardened outer layer could withstand the impact of a truck.
But none of that mattered.
Its opponent was an Ability user who stood out even among B-Rank participants.
Powered by intense lightning and a supply of Magic Energy Value, a thick laser instantly pierced through its body.
"ROAR!!"
E-49 began to panic. Being outside the top thirty, it possessed no special Abilities, and naturally had no way to deal with the girl wielding Thunderlight. Instinct drove it to flee immediately.
"Trying to run??"
The girl smiled as she asked, and a faint flash of Thunderlight flickered beneath her feet. She was about to chase after it and deliver the fatal blow!
But at the worst possible moment, the girl heard two long screams drawing closer from above her head.
"AAAAAHHHH!!!! HELP!!!!"
"AAAAAHHHH!!!! HELP!!!!"
The two screams were each more miserable than the last, and along with them came the building that had just shaken and collapsed, crashing down in an instant!
The girl looked up. Damn it, the building had blotted out the sky as it toppled right toward her!
"I@#%￥%"
Damn it! I can't dodge from this position!
The girl cursed furiously in her heart.
Then, watching the collapsing building come down with nowhere left to evade, the girl gave up and shouted!
"Electromagnetic Barrier!!!"
A blue semicircular Electromagnetic Barrier unfolded around her, only to be crushed beneath the entire building!
Up on the rooftop, Fang Ran, still gripping the railing tightly, truly understood the thrill of riding a roller coaster without a seatbelt. But what Fang Ran wanted to say right now was—
Damn it! Why had this building collapsed just because it felt like it too!?!?
This was fucking unscientific!
Could it be that wherever I went, things collapsed?
A horrifying possibility appeared in Fang Ran's mind. Then he watched the ground draw closer, as though it were flying up to smash into his face!
"AAAAAHHH!!! I'M GOING TO DIE!!!"
Fang Ran roared righteously, then firmly denied it in his heart!
No! There was no way this baby was someone who made things collapse wherever he went!
The building fell, and the rooftop was about to hit the ground. When that happened, Fang Ran probably would not be much different from a cake splattered on the floor.
Maybe he would be a little more intact.
But in the final moment, one second before the rooftop hit the ground, Fang Ran saw a tall figure step forward, pull out something, and roar in a manly voice!
"Moon Power, protect!"
Brilliant multicolored light suddenly spread out, protecting the two of them!!
The light trembled violently, then abruptly erupted with energy, blasting away all the flying rubble and explosions!
Then, from a completely buried pile of rubble not far away, the girl had just crawled out of the ruins in a sorry state when she saw the eye-searing multicolored light shooting straight at her!
Until the very end, she only had time to look up at the culprit and feel that the figure looked strangely familiar.
In the end, the confident girl was finally successfully wiped out as well.
This story told us that even if you had prepared everything, you still could not be too confident.
Because Fate struck suddenly, and you never knew what kind of trouble might be waiting ahead. (Serious face)
