"Stop it right now!"
Just as Lin Sanjiu shouted angrily, a streak of fire tore through the air and struck the spot where she was standing. A small, dilapidated building was instantly set ablaze.
Pieces of burning wood fell from the sky and ignited the wires, clothes, and trash that were everywhere. Electric sparks flew everywhere, forcing Lin Sanjiu to rush out of her hiding place. The moment she appeared, the attacks from the five posthumans on the rooftop followed her like a shadow.
It wasn't difficult for Lin Sanjiu to repel them. It was obvious that these posthumans had just evolved not long ago. Their abilities and stamina were far inferior to Lin Sanjiu's. If Lin Sanjiu got serious, these posthumans wouldn't last more than three minutes.
Lin Sanjiu didn't want to start a feud with them right from the start, but they thought that she was afraid. Their attacks became more vicious than the previous one. Lin Sanjiu was annoyed by their attacks. She had a stomach full of anger. She rushed to the sidewalk and stopped moving.
She stood in the open space without any defense. The posthumans who were chasing after her stopped chasing her. They hid themselves in the residential area. The streets became strangely quiet. Other than the crackling sounds of the burning houses, there was only a gust of wind that blew the thick smell of rust into the crowded city.
Lin Sanjiu stared at the empty street and her face turned cold.
"I'm going to say this for the last time. I'm not a Vindice," she shouted, "If you attack me again, I won't show you any mercy!"
As soon as Lin Sanjiu's voice trailed off, a black, bird-shaped metal object suddenly streaked across the sky and charged toward her. The bird-shaped metal object seemed to have sounded a signal. Immediately, all sorts of attacks rained down on her from all directions, including the inner city walls.
Lin Sanjiu stood quietly with her hands by her side. When the nearest ray of light was about to touch the tip of her nose, she suddenly moved. As she took a step back, the airflow around her suddenly twisted as if it was stirred up by an invisible hand. The airflow formed a whirlpool and rushed forward. It was as if a black hole had opened up in the air. The whirlpool spun rapidly, growing bigger and faster. Finally, like a giant beast with its mouth wide open, it swallowed and minced everything that dared to stand in its way.
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen different kinds of attacks were all rolled into pieces. A low groan of pain came from afar. It sounded like the person was hurt because his ability was destroyed. Once the sound reached her ears, Lin Sanjiu's figure blurred, and she disappeared from everyone's sight.
When she reappeared, she was still standing in the same place, holding a man's neck with one hand.
This time, all the restless attacks seemed to have frozen, and the street was completely silent.
The man's face turned purple as he was gripped by Lin Sanjiu's neck. He was a tough guy, so even though his life was in Lin Sanjiu's hands, he was still very stubborn. He shouted hoarsely, "Go back and call for help. Don't worry about me …"
"What the f * ck!" Lin Sanjiu lost her patience. She loosened her grip and threw the man to the ground. "Look at me carefully before you go and dream of being a hero. Look carefully, I'm a human. I'm a posthuman!"
The man was stunned by her fall. He knew that it was impossible for him to escape from her hands, so he stopped running. However, he still had a vigilant expression on his face. He sneered and said, "You guys are getting better and better at disguising yourselves!"
The vein on Lin Sanjiu's forehead throbbed. She reached out and touched his thigh. She laughed, "Do you believe me now?"
The man felt a chill on his thigh. When he looked down, he couldn't help but scream. His pants had disappeared. He was sitting on the ground in a pair of white boxer briefs. His two hairy legs were exposed to the wind.
A low murmur came from the inner city wall. Someone mumbled, "That should be an evolved ability, right?" However, someone immediately shouted, "Shut up!" Lin Sanjiu tilted her head and listened. She waved the [Unwashed Canvas Pants for a Week] card in her hand and smiled at the man on the ground, "Haven't you guys seen a posthuman from another world?"
"What … What posthuman …" The man's skin turned red. Even though he was embarrassed and annoyed, he seemed to believe Lin Sanjiu's identity. "Give me back my pants!"
Lin Sanjiu looked up and saw that the other posthuman had also appeared. However, they didn't dare to approach her. Lin Sanjiu raised her chin and said, "Call your friends over. I have something to ask them."
When she saw the man's hesitation, she quickly added, "If I wanted to kill, you guys would be dead already."
Lin Sanjiu waved her hand and removed the pants from her card. The man hastily put on his pants while he called out to his companions. When the posthumans saw that the man had put on his pants, they walked over slowly and cautiously. They stopped not far away from him.
"Are you really not a Vindice?" A middle-aged man with a goatee and dark eyes scrutinized Lin Sanjiu from head to toe, "You … You are indeed more human than them."
"What are the Enforcers?" Lin Sanjiu asked sincerely.
The posthuman was shocked. They obviously didn't expect Lin Sanjiu to ask such a question. They looked at each other and didn't know where to start. The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment before he asked, "If you don't mind … Can you tell us your background first?"
Lin Sanjiu sighed. She knew that she wouldn't be able to save the effort of talking. At this point in time, they had probably just ushered in the apocalypse, so they didn't know anything about the apocalypse. The more the posthuman listened, the worse their faces became. In the end, they fell into a dubious silence.
"What happened in your world?" After Lin Sanjiu finished speaking, she glanced at them and asked, "What kind of people are Vindice?"
Coincidentally, just as the middle-aged man was about to speak, a sharp whistle came from the inner city wall. The whistle spread far and wide, and it sounded more urgent than the previous one. While Lin Sanjiu was bewildered, she heard someone shouting through the loudspeaker, "Alert! All posthuman, head to the city gate and stand guard! I repeat, all posthuman, head to the city gate and stand guard! There is more than one Vindice approaching the city gate! "
As soon as the alarm sounded, a few figures ran across the sky. They rushed down the stone staircase that connected the inner and outer city and ran toward the city gate.
The posthuman's face darkened immediately. The middle-aged man with a goatee smiled bitterly and said to Lin Sanjiu, "Looks like I don't need to tell you. You will see it with your own eyes soon. We need to go to the city gate to provide support. Since you are so powerful, are you willing to help us? "
Lin Sanjiu wanted to nod her head, but she suddenly thought of something and asked, "Do all posthuman have to go to the city gate?"
