Capcom lay flat on the ground, itching and in pain. He wished he could tear himself apart on the spot to escape this hellish pain.
Then, he saw the scarlet waves of flames instantly spread over and heard a deafening explosion.
He thought that this last moment would be long, and that he would recall all the beautiful scenes when his wife and children were by his side. He thought that he would feel relieved because he wouldn't have to endure this inhuman torture anymore. But at that moment, extreme fear still surged out from the bottom of his heart, and a strong desire to live surged out. Moreover, the so-called memories didn't even have the time to flash before his mind was already filled with intense pain, and then he fell into a deep darkness.
Boom!
The windows of the dining room were shattered and sent flying, accompanied by countless bricks and rubble and flames that were clearly rolling out of the room.
The guards who happened to be patrolling this area were instantly knocked over. Those who were lucky enough not to be hit had their ears ringing as their bodies swayed and fell.
They saw that most of the dining hall's outer walls had collapsed, and the flames seemed to be floating in midair.
The citizens of the entire street and the police officers in charge of the surrounding area heard the loud bang at the same time, and they were momentarily puzzled and terrified.
Inside the dining hall, Klein, who was covered in black armor and a pitch-black crown, stood there, bathing in the scarlet flames and enjoying the powerful shockwaves. He remained unmoved.
Much of the black gas around him had melted, and his Spirit Body had also suffered some damage, but it wasn't serious.
Beside the overturned dining table, Parker and Capcom had been knocked into a corner. Their heads were dented and cracked, and their bodies were charred black.
Flames were still burning quietly on their surfaces, similar to the rest of the servants.
In the area opposite the fireplace, Katy, who hadn't been able to dodge in time, was thrown heavily against the wall before sliding to the ground. Her body was a bloody mess, mixed with a large number of charred marks. There wasn't a single patch of skin that was intact.
She wasn't dead yet, but she was seriously injured and unconscious. But even so, she was still convulsing and coughing as she inhaled large amounts of the floating flames.
The black whip had also suffered damage. Many cracks had appeared on it, and some of it had been ignited. As for the Beyonder bullets she had, none of them were spared from the explosion.
Katy no longer had any combat strength.
Harras rolled in time to protect his vitals, but his body was still covered in blood and charred black.
He staggered to his feet, his back, hair cover, and legs burning with scarlet flames.
His breathing became more and more difficult. His body had suffered serious injuries.
However, this was enough to prove the sturdiness of his body and the strength of his physique. In other words, after wearing the black iron glove, his body was sturdy enough and his physique was strong enough!
However, this was also within Klein's expectations.
In a situation where he was unable to estimate how much damage his target could take, he would overestimate his target's constitution when he came up with a plan.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that Klein was almost unscathed. His pupils constricted as he hurriedly extended his left palm and pointed in that direction.
"Exile!"
Once again, Klein could not bear it and was pushed away. Like a piece of paper in a hurricane, he was thrown out of the dining room. The hall outside had been set ablaze for a moment, and the fire was much smaller. Another wave of disaster was brewing from the wooden stairs. However, because the main body of the explosion was "confined" in the dining room, the damage here was not serious.
Seizing this opportunity, Harras suddenly turned around and ran outside without looking back.
Even though the flames covering his body were still burning, he didn't waste any time dealing with them.
He knew that his condition was extremely bad and that he was in danger of losing control. The effects of the poison would soon reach its peak, and with the two added together, he didn't believe that he had any chance of defeating the intruder. Even if he had the help of Sequence 7 Belize at the entrance to the underground area, it would still be the same!
If he continued fighting like this, Harras believed that he would only end up with the poison acting up or losing control due to serious injuries!
Once he decided to escape, he didn't care about Katy, who was still alive.
When Klein, who had just stabilized his body under the effects of Exile, saw this scene, he immediately raised his head slightly, opened his mouth, and let out a shrill scream that humans could not hear!
Hum!
Harras felt dizzy, and his footsteps came to a halt. Dense transparent blisters grew on the surface of his body, which was a sign that he was about to lose control.
However, he quickly recovered and continued running, escaping the lawn that belonged to the villa.
How difficult to kill … To avoid any accidents, Klein didn't chase after him.
He remembered that his goal was to save people, not to clean up these fallen Beyonders.
More importantly, he had expended a lot of energy, and he had suffered considerable injuries. If he were to chase after him, he might not be able to withstand Harras' crazy counterattack.
Pa!
Klein snapped his fingers and shot out an Air Bullet.
The bullet entered Katy's head, ending all her suffering.
Immediately after, Klein turned around and flew towards the entrance to the underground area.
The bearded Belize had been paying attention to the commotion outside, but he didn't dare to leave his post, afraid that the intruder's accomplices would take the opportunity to break into the dungeon.
At that moment, he, who was holding a high-pressure steam rifle and had his Spirit Vision activated, was frightened by the loud bang, and he became abnormally tense.
Then, he saw the majestic ghost flying over, and without hesitation, he raised his rifle and pulled the trigger.
Bang!
White smoke spewed out from the barrel, and a sharp pale gold bullet shot forward at an astonishing speed.
Klein was already prepared and had an intuition. Before Belize fired, he had already made a small arc.
The bullet passed through the hall, pierced through the main door, and flew outside.
At the same time, Belize rushed out of the duty room, holding a high-pressure steam rifle and assuming a threatening posture as he quickly moved towards the door.
He believed that the intruder, who could deal with the combined forces of Harras, Katy, and Parker, would definitely be able to easily kill him. Furthermore, the huge commotion just now would definitely attract attention. Perhaps the Mandated Punishers would come to investigate, so the only choice was:
Run!
Klein let out another invisible scream, making the other party feel as if he had been struck by a hammer. Countless stars danced in front of his eyes, and a few drops of blood flowed from his nose.
However, this didn't stop Belize from escaping. After shooting at Klein, he had already run into the hall and tumbled towards the door.
After some deliberation, Klein gave up on chasing and fighting. He turned off the main valve, went to the entrance to the underground area, and snapped his fingers. Bang!
Bang! Bang!
Air Bullets hit the invisible wall, gradually disintegrating the "confinement."
This was also one of the reasons why Klein dared to cause a gas explosion and use the Biological Poison Bottle. With Harras's "confinement" effect on the underground prison, he didn't have to worry about accidentally injuring the pitiful girls as long as he didn't attack them head-on.
He destroyed the door lock and flew into the dungeon. Based on the revelation given by the divination scene, he found the cell where Daisy was imprisoned. He then confirmed that she hadn't suffered any serious injuries and still had the ability to move.
Then, his body turned incorporeal and melted into the metal door.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The metal doors on one side opened rapidly, as if invisible ghosts were running to unlock them.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
After one side was done, it was the other side's turn.
Daisy and the other girls were first alarmed by the explosion outside. After a while, they were surprised to find that the cell door had opened for some reason, but no one had entered. It was as if they could leave at any time.
Some of the girls, who had just been kidnapped and hadn't received any training, mustered up their courage and went out. They ran all the way to the exit of the underground area.
They passed through the hall that had been slightly damaged by the explosion, left the villa that was burning up, and ran in the direction of freedom with increasing urgency.
Only when they reached the street did Daisy and the other girls remember to look back.
As they looked back, they could vaguely see a dignified figure dressed in black armor and wearing a black crown standing at the top of the evil house.
Whoosh!
The cloak on the figure's back fluttered silently.
They memorized this scene and searched for the nearby cathedral in distrust of the police.
Klein returned to the dining room that was filled with flames and smoke. He discovered that Parker and Katy's Beyonder characteristics were showing signs of seeping out.
He checked the items they carried and confirmed that most of them had been destroyed. Even the banknotes were charred black and brittle.
Klein suddenly jumped up and went to the second and third floors. He quickly patrolled the area, hoping to find the corresponding clues.
He didn't attempt to mediate the spirit because there wasn't enough time. And bringing it above the gray fog didn't meet the requirements for his "curtain call."
Even a minor leader is required to "keep it a secret," so these important figures definitely have the corresponding "restrictions." They can't be mediated just because they want to, and the previous operation was too complicated and troublesome. It's not suitable for now … Klein ended his investigation. He didn't find anything, but he casually picked up a deck of tarot cards.
After returning to the tattered and charred dining room, he took out all the main cards in the tarot cards and walked to the side of Capim's corpse.
Then, he took out two of them and sprinkled the rest on Capim's body.
After doing this, he covered Capim's eyes with the two tarot cards he had specially pulled out, face up.
At this point, Parker and Katy's Beyonder characteristics had already been determined.
…
Dozens of seconds later, an illusory door suddenly tore open in midair outside the villa. It was covered in complicated symbols.
The door opened silently, and a handsome man in a well-ironed suit walked out. He was in his forties, mature and elegant.
He had a pair of golden eyes, and with a sweep, he locked onto the dining room that looked like a scene of a fire.
At this moment, a gust of wind blew, and a figure flew over at high speed.
It was an elder wearing a black bonnet and an abnormally stern look in his silver eyes. He wore a black robe embroidered with the symbol of the Storm. He was none other than the Cardinal of the Church of the Storm, the archbishop of the Baekeland diocese, Spellsinger of God Ace Snake.
"Why are you here?" Ace asked in a deep voice.
Beyonder matters in Cherwood Borough were managed by the Holy Wind Cathedral, so he had the right to ask.
The handsome man replied with an ugly expression.
"I live nearby."
This place was close to West Borough.
Without another word, the two descended to the ground at the same time and entered the scene of the explosion. A violent hurricane stirred up, sweeping away the flames and sending them to the artificial fountain outside.
The wind seemed to have a life and intelligence of its own.
The two demigod powerhouses then saw Katy, who had been shot in the head and had her flesh charred black. They saw Parker, who was entangled with someone, his head caved in and cracked. They also saw Capim, whose body was covered with tarot cards. They saw the two main cards on the human trafficker's face.
They were the "Judgment" card with an angel blowing a horn, and the "Emperor" card with a crown and armor on his head!
Almost at the same time, Cardinal Snake and the handsome man sensed something and suddenly turned their heads to look outside.
They discovered a dignified figure covered in black armor and a pitch-black crown on the roof of the house on the side of the villa.
The figure nodded slightly, and his cloak fluttered.
Then, he disappeared without any warning, right under the noses of the two High-Sequence Beyonders.
