Zhui's expression changed as he quickly understood the meaning of Qi Yuan's words.
"She's here for you?"
Qi Yuan nodded with a serious expression. The monster girl had already arrived at the Iron Chariots, but she didn't go on a killing spree. She must have a clear target. Thinking back to the expression she had when she looked at him, Qi Yuan was certain that she had come to the Iron Chariots to devour him.
"She should be a little human girl. She was originally a monster hiding under the old city. She can control those polluting beasts. I was chased by her in the old city, but I was lucky enough to escape!"
"She's approaching me. Quickly find Leader Ling You!"
Qi Yuan's tone became urgent.
Zhui's expression changed. Qi Yuan had already proven his strength in the underground city. Since this monster could make Qi Yuan not dare to attack, she must be very strong. He was definitely not her opponent. In the entire Iron Chariots, only Leader Ling You had the strength to deal with that monster.
At this moment, from the corner of his eyes, Zhao saw a little girl with red hair standing at the end of the street. She was dressed in a white floral dress with a black base. She looked to be no more than eight or nine years old. She had a confused expression on her face as she stared at Qi Yuan with her large, watery eyes.
Then, he saw her swallow her saliva.
A chill ran from Zhui's feet to the top of his head.
"Let's go!"
Zhui turned around and left with Qi Yuan. A powerful monster that could control polluting beasts had sneaked into the Iron Chariots. This kind of matter had to be reported to Ling You. If Ling You couldn't handle it, he was afraid that he could only ask for help from the Black Steel Shelter.
Behind the two of them, the little girl wearing a black and white floral dress walked unhurriedly on the street. Her walking speed didn't seem fast, but Zhui and Qi Yuan couldn't pull away from her even when they were running at the speed of a rank 3.
Saliva dripped from the monster girl's mouth, wetting her clothes, but the light in her eyes grew brighter and brighter.
The hunters who were passing by were surprised to see Qi Yuan and Yu running away, but none of them noticed the little girl who was chasing after them. As long as someone looked in her direction, they would subconsciously look away. She was ignored by everyone just like that.
Qi Yuan didn't look back, but he could feel that the beam of light was getting closer and closer to him. This meant that the monster was also getting closer and closer.
Suddenly, Qi Yuan saw a bright blue flash of lightning coming straight at him, brushing past him. The next second, Qi Yuan felt that the checkpoint near him had stopped, as if it had been blocked by something.
"It's Chief Ling You!" Dusk said in a low voice.
Qi Yuan turned around and realized that Ling You, who was dressed in blue, had appeared behind him at some point. Her back was facing him as she confronted the monstrous little girl.
She seemed to be different from before. Qi Yuan remembered clearly that when he first saw her in the basement, she was a little girl of thirteen or fourteen years old. It had only been a month, but she had changed so much that she looked like she was only eight or nine years old.
Reverse Growth!
Ling You's appearance made the little girl feel pressured. She stopped chasing and looked at Ling You cautiously.
However, she didn't choose to leave. Instead, she chose to confront Ling You. The saliva at the corner of her mouth was like an open faucet, wetting a large part of her clothes.
"I'm hungry!" the monster girl said with a wronged expression.
Ling You stared at the monster in front of her with a serious expression and said in a low voice.
"Leave the Iron Chariots and lure her outside!"
Qi Yuan took a deep breath. He knew that Ling You's words were directed at him. He decisively turned around and ran outside.
Whether Ling You wanted to drive him away or shift the battlefield to the wilderness, he had to leave.
Otherwise, Ling You would kill him first before the monster girl did anything.
Qi Yuan ran outside. Dusk gritted his teeth and followed alone. This time, he didn't inform the other team members. Facing a monster of this strength, the others would only be sending themselves to their deaths. Now, he could only pray that Ling You could deal with her.
Even without a car, Qi Yuan was very fast. The two ran at full speed and only stopped when they were nearly ten kilometers away from the Iron Chariots.
Qi Yuan panted slightly. He looked back in the direction of the Iron Chariots. The checkpoint was quickly approaching him. As for Chief Ling You —
Just as this thought flashed through Qi Yuan's mind, he saw a flash of blue lightning coming from afar. In the blink of an eye, it was in front of him.
Ling You was tall and slender. Her blue clothes accentuated her perfect figure. She looked at Qi Yuan with a cold expression.
"You're Qi Yuan?"
Qi Yuan nodded.
"Greetings, Chief Ling You."
Ling You looked deeply at Qi Yuan, then turned to look at the monster girl who was quickly approaching.
"Don't stand too close, and don't run too far. If I can't stop her, you take her away. Don't let her get close to the Iron Chariots!"
"I know what to do!" Qi Yuan said in a deep voice.
Ling You was benevolent enough to be willing to deal with this monster. After all, this monster girl could withstand Doomsday Strike's full-powered attack. Her defense alone was suspected to be Tier 4.
As the leader of the Iron Chariots, Ling You obviously did not want this monster to cause trouble in the checkpoint. With its strength, if it ate in the Iron Chariots, it would cause a lot of casualties.
If even she could not stop this monster girl, no one would be able to save him when he returned to the Iron Chariots.
Qi Yuan retreated a distance. Although it was his first time seeing Ling You, he felt that she was somewhat familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere before.
The Tier 2 Data Center quietly operated. A name suddenly popped up, matching Ling You.
Mystery!
The strange woman who was hired by Xu Kui to clean up the mine. She wore a black veil all the way and disappeared with the Black-toothed Rats.
Mystery!
Ling You!
Are these two people related to each other?
Qi Yuan was puzzled. Not only were their names similar, but their appearances were also 90% similar.
Although Mystery was wearing a black veil at the time, with the Tier 2 Data Center's powerful memory and comparison, the exposed half of her face and Ling You's face were practically printed from the same mold!
Twins?
Or … clones?
Strange thoughts flashed through his mind. Ling You and the monster girl were already engaged in a fierce battle.
Dazzling blue lightning illuminated the wilderness. Violent energy waves spread out wantonly. The energy waves from their battle were far more intense than the battle between Dusk and Arc Light.
Qi Yuan and Zhui swallowed their saliva at the same time. In any case, they were peak Tier 3 as well. Compared to Ling You, they were simply trash!
Was Ling You really only at Tier 3?
Was there really such a powerful Tier 3 in this world?
Qi Yuan could vaguely see Ling You's hair fluttering amidst the lightning explosions. Dazzling blue lightning arcs were released from her body like turbulent waves, slapping everything around her.
Rumble!
Ling You clenched her right hand and a dazzling lightning condensed in her palm. The violent lightning arcs were many times more powerful than Arc Light's explosion. At this moment, Ling You was like the God of Thunder, walking among the mortals. Lightning in her hands could destroy all the filth in the world.
The monster girl with blood-red hair finally showed her inhuman side. One by one, the shadows of blood-red monsters rushed out of her body. They opened their bloody mouths and crazily devoured the blue thunderbolts around them.
Those monsters looked formless and intangible, but in their mouths, the violent power of lightning was like cotton candy. Every time they bit, a large ball of lightning would be swallowed into their stomachs.
They could even devour lightning!
What kind of monsters were they?!
Ling You stared coldly at the monster shadows that were madly devouring the lightning energy. She just kept releasing the violent lightning energy, as if she was not worried at all about being devoured by them.
Originally, the monstrous girl would sneak a peek at Qi Yuan from afar and secretly swallow her saliva.
However, she soon felt a sense of danger.
A monster shadow that had devoured a large amount of lightning energy, because it had swallowed too much lightning energy, its bloated body suddenly exploded in the lightning. The lightning that it had devoured swept out and merged with the lightning in the air again. The surrounding monster shadows that were affected also exploded one after another.
Those monster shadows that had devoured too much lightning energy were like balloons that had been filled with too much air. They exploded one after another, leaving behind a thunderous explosion.
Ling You's eyes focused. The lightning energy in her hand was condensed to the extreme. Even under the violent lightning, a dazzling blue lightning ball could be seen in her hand.
The lightning ball was as bright as the sun!
A blue sun!
Ling You's figure flickered. She grabbed the lightning ball with one hand and suddenly smashed it towards the monster girl.
The lightning ball was extremely fast. The instant Ling You made her move, it pierced through the void and arrived in front of the monster girl.
The monster girl raised her head. She looked at the blue sun that was shooting towards her. Only a boundless blue color was left in her eyes.
Its core was only the size of a fist, but the plasma it released exceeded a meter in diameter. The violent lightning energy inside was even more so comparable to a plasma bomb!
The monster girl opened her mouth. The body of an eight or nine-year-old girl seemed to be magnified dozens of times the moment she opened her mouth. All that could be seen was a gaping maw that bit at the blue sun that was flying over.
Seeing this scene, Qi Yuan subconsciously opened his mouth.
This could be eaten?
Could she really treat a plasma bomb as a snack?
Was this really a battle between third rank powerhouses?
Even a battle between fourth rank ability users couldn't be more than this!
The monster girl's bloody mouth swallowed the blue sun into her stomach. The lightning that filled the sky dimmed, as if the entire world was swallowed into her stomach.
The lightning ball disappeared. The monster girl's stomach slightly bulged. She frowned and lightly touched her stomach. Her expression seemed to be a bit uncomfortable.
Ling You crossed her arms in front of her chest. The lightning energy that was spreading around her suddenly turned into a dazzling blue Brontosaurus that circled around her.
The monster girl looked at Ling You. Finally, a trace of fear appeared in her eyes.
Ling You's figure flickered. Her entire body seemed to have disappeared. Only a blue Brontosaurus was left behind. It was becoming more and more dazzling.
The blue Brontosaurus absorbed the surrounding lightning. Its body became bigger and bigger. Soon, it became a huge monster that was close to ten meters long.
Roar!
The blue Brontosaurus that was condensed from lightning roared angrily. Then, it suddenly pounced towards the monster girl.
The blue Brontosaurus seemed to have materialized. In just an instant, its huge body had already pierced through the void and instantly drowned the monster girl.
Boom!
Qi Yuan closed his eyes. The overly dazzling lightning made it impossible to look directly at it. In the rumbling thunder, the last thing Qi Yuan saw was the monster girl opening her mouth again. It seemed like she wanted to swallow this incomparably huge Brontosaurus into her stomach.
Even with his eyes closed, Qi Yuan could faintly feel the resplendent lightning. The dazzling light quickly disappeared. When Qi Yuan opened his eyes again, he only saw that the Brontosaurus had already disappeared.
The monster girl's stomach looked like it was ten months pregnant. It was extremely swollen, as if it could explode at any time.
Behind her, Ling You's face was a bit pale. However, her eyes were incomparably bright.
She turned around and looked at the little girl. She said indifferently, "It's over!"
Before her voice even faded, the little girl's stomach suddenly swelled to the limit. Then, with a boom, her body directly exploded into countless fragments.
However, those fragments were not flesh and blood. Instead, they were monster phantoms. Hundreds of monster phantoms ran wildly in all directions.
Ling You's eyes narrowed. She did not expect such an unforeseen event. These monster phantoms did not escape very quickly. However, there were too many of them. Even she could not kill all of them.
Looking at the phantoms that were disappearing into the distance, Ling You glanced at Qi Yuan from the corner of her eye and said, "After you go back, come to 1 Oak Street."
After saying that, Ling You turned into a bolt of lightning and quickly left.
Qi Yuan glanced in the direction Ling You left. Then, he quickly turned his head and stared at a fleeing monster phantom. That monster phantom looked no different from the other phantoms. However, in Qi Yuan's line of sight, there was a bright beam of light above its head!
That was the sign-in beam!
"You go first. I'll kill a few monsters."
Qi Yuan said in a low voice. Then, he quickly chased after the monster phantom with the sign-in beam.
"Qi Yuan!"
Zhui looked at Qi Yuan who was leaving in a hurry, his eyes filled with astonishment.
He's chasing after that?
Qi Yuan chased after the sign-in point and soon saw the monster phantom.
The monster girl's speed was so fast that it was strange. After it exploded into countless monster phantoms, its speed was obviously much slower. At least, it was slower than Qi Yuan's Grade 2 Steel Sword.
It was a snake-shaped monster phantom. Qi Yuan's pursuit seemed to have made it feel danger. It turned back several times to threaten Qi Yuan, but in the end, Qi Yuan was getting closer and closer.
The phantom monster clearly did not have any means of attack. After Qi Yuan caught up, he tried to step on its tail. In the end, he stepped on empty air. The phantom monster did not have a physical body. It was impossible to touch it at all.
The monster phantom quickly fled without looking back. Qi Yuan frowned and chased after it again.
Since it did not have a physical body, he would try other methods!
Qi Yuan quickly found a way to deal with it. His right hand suddenly grabbed the snake phantom's tail.
Energy Control!
An invisible suction force appeared, and the rapidly fleeing monster phantom's movements became sluggish. It was as if it was bound by an invisible force field!
So it was an energy body!
No wonder it could ignore the attack of Doomsday Strike!
No wonder it could devour Ling You's energy!
Qi Yuan sneered and increased the suction force in his hand. He quickly broke the deadlock of the monster phantom and directly sucked it into his body.
At the same time, the sign-in successful notification came as expected.
Just as Qi Yuan absorbed the monster phantom with the sign-in beam, the fleeing monster phantoms let out a wail at the same time and disappeared into the void like bubbles.
