The man's face turned extremely ugly as he looked at the seriously injured people who were being tossed around like trash by Hela, and the ordinary people who were rushing towards him.
With a gentle lift of her hand, a soft breeze, like a cotton bed, catches the person thrown at her steadily. Then, another gust of wind is used to control the person being manipulated by Hela.
But then, as if he had discovered something, his face immediately contorted with extreme anger.
He discovered that those controlled by Hela were not trying to stop him, but rather wanted to kill the seriously wounded.
This made the man extremely embarrassed. If these people only wanted to kill him or stop him, he could have easily shaken them off with his speed.
But if the man were to attack these seriously injured people, they would definitely die if he left them unattended.
On one hand, there was the task of hunting down the invaders; on the other hand, there were the lives of more than a dozen people. The man simply had no choice.
When a man hesitates.
Hela had disappeared from the man's sight and was frantically fleeing down the stairwell.
To think that a dozen or so ordinary people could stop a Starlight Level expert is, of course, a pipe dream.
Hela understood this perfectly, so she subtly took advantage of the fact that those Night Star possessed a degree of righteousness.
Although Hela seems rather dim-witted and dull in terms of emotional intelligence, use of electronic devices, and even common sense.
But this doesn't mean Hela wasn't smart. After all, Hela spent five years deep thinking inside the stone, so she had no problem understanding human nature.
Soon, Hela ran to a secluded spot and stopped.
Looking up and around, I saw that there was at least one camera in every direction I could see.
That makes sense; after all, it's headquarters, so it's normal to have more cameras.
The two tentacles still growing behind Hela suddenly lashed out, slicing all the surrounding cameras to smithereens.
The biggest problem now is how to find the girl who knows everything, because Hela only knows that the girl is at headquarters, but doesn't know her exact location.
The entire headquarters is over ten stories high and covers an area of nearly 80,000 square meters. There are countless rooms, and if you were to search room by room, you probably wouldn't find it even by Tiantian.
However, if you use clones to search, you'll die as soon as you bump into someone.
Besides, there are still a bunch of people looking for me behind the surveillance cameras.
What should we do...?
At this moment, Hela felt her confidence in her intelligence slowly crumbling again.
"If only my clone were a bit more powerful, I could just kill them all and search slowly. Anyway, the only threat to me, the [Godslaying] Squad, is already dead."
Suddenly, Hela had a flash of inspiration, as if she had thought of something.
"Kill them all..."
"Got it."
Hela, expressionless, punched her other hand in the palm, feigning sudden realization.
Then, as if he had a goal in mind, he headed straight for the very center of the governor's residence.
"Hang in there, the bleeding will stop soon!"
"Ouch... it hurts so much..."
The corridor at the main entrance of the headquarters.
The man was using torn fabric to stop the bleeding of the severely injured people, preventing them from dying from excessive blood loss in the short term.
Those controlled by Hela had already been knocked unconscious by him and were lying not far from him.
Noah, what are you doing!
Just as the man finished bandaging the wound, a woman dressed in black emerged from the shadows like a ghost, looking anxiously at the man.
"And what's going on? Who are the intruders? Where are they now!"
Before Noah could answer, the woman asked again anxiously.
"She's an Variant! Based on her appearance and abilities, she's very likely one of the [Five Calamities] —[Life]."
The man continued working, his face grave as he spoke to the woman in black.
" [Five Calamities]... [Life]?"
The woman in black repeated these words in a daze, as if all hope for life had been suddenly taken away from her.
"Then... are we all going to die? It's estimated that one [Five Calamities] is equivalent to three to four Human Limit combat strength..."
"No!" The man shook his head resolutely. "That [Life] is a bit abnormal. It might not be able to unleash its full power for some reason. Otherwise, no matter what its purpose is, I would be dead long ago!"
The woman in black then seemed to wake from a dream and come to her senses.
"That's true, then I'll go after them right now!"
After saying that, she prepared to set off to chase after Hela, but Noah stopped her.
"Wait a minute, your strength is too weak. You help out with the tasks for now. I'll go chase after the wounded... and I also need to check on Ailifa."
"Huh? What time is it? You still have the leisure to look at someone who has already been sentenced to death?"
The woman in black looked at Noah with surprise, while Noah looked solemn.
"No, I just have a feeling that this invasion of us by [Life] is very likely related to Ailifa."
"Well... alright, then go ahead and go!"
The woman in black snatched the cloth from Noah's hand and quickly and roughly bandaged the wounds of the others.
Noah glanced at it with some reluctance, then gritted his teeth and vanished on the spot in a whirlwind.
He was very fast, maintaining an extremely fast pace even in the narrow, intricate corridors.
With his familiarity with the terrain, Noah arrived at the room where Ailifa was being held captive in no time.
Before he could even reach for his keys, with a flick of his finger, a blade of wind shattered the lock, and Noah immediately pushed the door open and entered.
In the dimly lit room, a frail body huddled under the covers, shivering.
Upon hearing the sound of the door being broken down, the body wrapped in the blanket trembled even more, and the person involuntarily took a step back.
" Ailifa, it's me! Noah, I've come to save you."
Noah comforted Ailifa, who was curled up in bed, in as gentle a tone as possible.
Hearing his voice, the woman, wrapped tightly in the blankets, cautiously peeked out with half her head.
Upon seeing that the person who had come was indeed Noah, his frightened eyes were immediately filled with tears.
She threw off the blanket and rushed towards Noah like the wind.
Crystal-clear tears fell as the girl ran, scattering in the air and turning into streaks of starlight.
Noah smiled gently and slowly opened his arms to welcome him, "I will protect you..."
But just then...
Pfft!
A Wusheng bullet shot out from the shadows, drawing a silver line through the air before piercing the girl's head.
The girl's eyes, filled with emotion and tears, suddenly became unfocused, and her running steps faltered, causing her to collapse.
The small body fell to the ground with a thud, even sliding forward half a meter due to inertia, leaving a scarlet arc.
