At Loren's command, the layers of dim blue data chains inside the specialized device holding the Hellfire began to peel away.
The moment the final seal vanished.
Boom!
It was not an actual sound, but a silent explosion that struck directly at the soul!
A fist-sized stream of dark crimson and black fire twisted wildly, radiating overwhelming resentment, pain, and destructive intent.
The temperature inside the fusion chamber did not rise. Instead, it plummeted.
An eerie sensation spread through the room—bone-chilling cold mixed with a burning pain in the soul!
Even the specialized alloy walls seemed to let out faint groans under the strain.
"Inject it."
