"A priest, of all things." A somewhat familiar voice drifted down from the sky, carrying a hint of surprise.
The Sixth Judge?
Su Chen's heart skipped a beat. He sensed the Strange Artifact moving in secret. "Is he trying to run?"
A flicker passed through Su Chen's eyes. He quietly took a shortcut and swiftly followed.
"He's too slow. Not a high-tier professional," Su Chen deduced. "Makes sense. High-tier professionals draw too much attention. The others aren't Strange God believers, so they can't lock onto the target through perception. A low-tier professional is actually better at escaping."
A thunderous explosion erupted behind him, and the sky changed color.
"They've already started fighting?"
The streets flashed past. Su Chen glanced back and saw golden flames intertwining with black mist, forming a tangled canopy overhead.
Su Chen sped up, but doubts rose in his heart. "Where are Zhang Hongbo and the others? Why hasn't anyone come to support him? Is that Judge the only one here?"
"That guy is up ahead..." Su Chen halted atop a building and stared down at the dark alley below.
Azure Cord silently unfurled in his hand. Su Chen's gaze flickered. "Perfect. I can test the strengthened Scarlet Thunderstrike."
Psychic power surged forth, and a streak of scarlet light suddenly flashed through the air.
Boom!
A scarlet bolt over ten meters long and as thick as a thigh crashed down like an arrow fired by a god!
The fleeing Strange God believer was startled and instinctively looked up. Scarlet filled his pupils, and he lost consciousness at once.
[Path of Slaughter: Completed!]
"It's much thicker and longer... and its power is thirty to forty percent greater..." Su Chen looked at the charred remains on the ground, wreathed in Black Flame, and secretly clicked his tongue.
