He Ao raised his cane with his right hand and quickly inscribed a strengthening array on the cane with his divine sense.

Almost simultaneously, Blood Wolf swung his blade and slashed at He Ao.

He Ao activated his super memory, raised his cane vertically, bent his knees slightly, and in that instant, gathered all the strength in his body into his arm.

Keng——

Just as the scimitar was about to slash He Ao's face, the cracked cane suddenly veered to the right.

This sudden attack disrupted Blood Wolf's momentum, causing his cane to deflect the blade to the right and pull Blood Wolf's body toward Heo's right.

As Blood Wolf shifted his body, He Ao's cane, which he was swinging to the right, had already slipped from Blood Wolf's body.

Sweep it back over your head, press the staff down, and then sweep it upwards again.

The sharp tip of the cane grazed the Blood Wolf's neck, leaving a shallow bloody mark and further swaying its balance.

He withdrew his sword, returned his staff, and slit his throat.

The entire sequence of movements was performed in one smooth motion, with almost no pauses.

But Heo's attacks did not stop.

As the cane swept upwards, He Ao's body also rotated to the right. The butterfly knife in his left hand, which was originally pointing upwards, flew along his fingertips as his body rotated, changing from pointing upwards to pointing downwards.

Then make a horizontal slash.

Almost the instant the cane grazed the wolf's neck, the sharp butterfly knife ripped through his clothes at the waist, tearing open his flesh.

With a splash of blood, the Blood Wolf circled around and stopped behind He Ao, who then turned around as well.

Droplets of blood, tinged with a purple glow, trickled down the blade of the butterfly knife.

He looked at him calmly. "Perhaps you should go down and see them."

“Sir, judging from your age, it’s time for you to step down.”

Blood Wolf clutched the wound on his stomach, looked up at He Ao, and saw wriggling buds of flesh extending from both sides of the wound, coiling together to stop the bleeding.

Tentacles detached from his back, tearing his red leather jacket apart.

These tentacles floated in the air, pointing at He Ao, their tips splitting open like flower petals to reveal sharp bone spurs inside.

call out--

With a crisp whooshing sound, a bone spike shot out from the topmost tentacle, piercing towards He Ao.

boom--

He leaped forward, raised his cane, and struck the flying bone spike.

puff--

The bone spur was knocked away, piercing the thick wall next to it as easily as piercing tofu, and embedding itself deep inside.

In the process of this back and forth, the distance between He Ao and Blood Wolf had clearly narrowed.

After their close-quarters clash, the two were already quite close, and He Ao reacted quickly, turning around to get close to Blood Wolf again.

Blood Wolf quickly retreated and manipulated the tentacles behind him to spew out bone spikes again.

bang bang bang-

He Ao simultaneously raised his cane and butterfly knife, and with a swing, knocked the three bone spikes away again.

The two were now extremely close, and Blood Wolf raised his blade again to slash diagonally at He Ao.

He raised his cane with his right hand, his arm across his forehead, the tip of the cane pointing downwards, to block the diagonal slash. Then he raised the butterfly knife in his left hand and slashed hard at the thin knife.

Blood Wolf jerked his wrist, deflecting the dagger once more. He Ao then swung his cane downwards, aiming for Blood Wolf's forehead.

The cane whistled through the air as it sliced ​​through the air.

Blood Wolf looked up at the cane and immediately retracted the tentacles behind him to block the cane that was about to strike.

He Ao had been waiting for this moment. He spun the butterfly knife that had just cut the thin knife in his left hand between his fingertips, changing it from tip downwards to tip upwards. Then he raised his hand and thrust forward, aiming straight for Blood Wolf's waist.

Blood Wolf reacted instantly, manipulating his tentacles to block and crouching back to increase the distance between himself and the butterfly knife. The sharp butterfly knife severed several tentacles and pierced Blood Wolf's waist once more.

Wound.

Blood Wolf gritted his teeth, gathered all his strength, and sprang backward, pulling his body away from the butterfly knife while trying to increase the distance between himself and He Ao.

He has bone spikes for long-range attacks, while Heo does not; maintaining distance is more advantageous for him.

He Ao, naturally, would not easily give up the fighting momentum and immediately gave chase.

But then countless bone spikes shot out from the tips of the tentacles, forcing Heo to be distracted by blocking them and slowing his pace.

As the Blood Wolf raised its tentacles one by one, more and more bone spikes flew at him, so dense that He Ao was struggling to cope. Every time He Ao knocked away a bone spike, two or three more would follow. One of them even grazed his cheek, leaving a bloody mark on his side.

If that bone spur had been just a little off, it could have pierced his skull.

If this 'bone spike rain' had lasted any longer, Heo might have been able to break through his defenses. However, the Blood Wolf's bone spikes did not seem to be inexhaustible. After a very short period of rain, the frequency of the bone spike attacks gradually weakened.

Meanwhile, the Blood Wolf's tentacles reached out to the doors of the control room and feed room, ripping them off and slapping them down from the left and right to block He Ao's advance.

He Ao moved forward, raised his cane, used the handle to brace against the door panel that was clamping down, and then swung the butterfly knife in his left hand to cut the other door in half.

He took another step forward through the crack in the door, closing the distance between himself and the Blood Wolf.

Blood Wolf retreated and immediately pulled another door back to block his way.

At the same time, several tentacles behind him converged behind the door, their tips opening to reveal fine bone spurs inside.

The metal door would block Heo's view, and at the same time, it would block the bone spurs that were poised to strike.

His movements were slow, intentionally letting He Ao get closer to him. These bone spikes were scattered in every blind spot, and as soon as He Ao got close, the bone spikes could penetrate the door panel and riddle He Ao with holes.

Just then, He Ao, who had been approaching him directly, stopped and instead turned sideways around the door. He suddenly raised his butterfly knife, bypassed the tentacles in front of him, and slashed at his neck.

Blood Wolf had no time to panic about his scheme being exposed; he immediately raised the slender knife in his hand.

The slender knife is of decent quality, but after being struck by the butterfly knife, it already has a deep nick and can only withstand one more attack at most.

However, he raised his knife not to defend against the butterfly knife, but to meet He Ao's attack head-on.

He had already discovered that He'ao's body was not as good as his, and he could completely trade injuries for injuries, using offense as defense.

As expected, He Ao, who was originally attacking, had no choice but to raise his hand to defend against this sudden slash.

However, Heo used a cane instead of a butterfly knife when he returned to defense.

He raised his cane forward and struck the slender knife, while simultaneously turning the butterfly knife in his hand so that the blade was pointing downwards.

This time, however, Blood Wolf was prepared. Countless tentacles quickly retracted, blocking the wound on his waist, and prepared to seize the opportunity to entangle He Ao's wrist.

At that very moment, the cane that had struck the knife did not fly to the left with the momentum of the swing, but instead suddenly pressed down, the force reaching its tip.

heavy crutch

The cane bent briefly under the immense force, then its sharp tip plunged downwards, piercing the blood wolf's heart.

Blood Wolf's body stiffened. He slowly raised his head and looked at He Ao in surprise. "Your target isn't the stomach?"

The area around his heart is where his energy gathers.

"When did I say my goal was to get pregnant?"

He looked at him calmly.

In the recent exchanges, Blood Wolf had intentionally covered his chest.

Therefore, He Ao deliberately attacked the waist and abdomen several times to create the illusion that he was going to focus on the waist and abdomen. Each time, he used a sharper butterfly knife to reduce Blood Wolf's wariness of the cane.

The effectiveness of a weapon is sometimes not determined solely by its quality.

"Child, you have great power, but unfortunately, you don't know how to control it."

Although their strengths seemed similar, the pressure Blood Wolf exerted on He Ao was far less than that of Poison Scorpion. He Ao raised his hand and suddenly pulled out his cane, blood splattering everywhere. "Now, you have the chance to see those you have captured."

He Ao stepped aside, revealing the door to the feed room that he had been blocking behind him.

Blood Wolf swayed slightly, his gaze fixed on the people locked in cages in the feed shed.

His eyes widened, and he fell forward, crashing into the pool of blood in front of the hanging, blood-stained instruments of torture.

"Core host control complete. Retrieving host data and copying host data."

Eve's voice rang in Heo's ears.

He Ao returned to the control room, took off the bracelet and put it on his wrist. Then he walked to the elevator, pressed the button, and walked into the elevator with his cane.

"Eve, which floor has the most people who have merged with the corrupted monster?"

He Ao asked.

"The tenth floor, that's the office area for the core members of Evolution,"

Eve's voice rang out.

"Go to the tenth floor."

As He Ao's calm voice rang out, the elevator buttons for the tenth floor slowly lit up.

Outside the FBI building in St. John

"Alas,"

Jiaxi pressed her face against the window, watching the FBI agents in uniforms emerge from the building. "What are they doing?"

"They received a 'report'."

A gentle female voice came through the car's infotainment system, "Jacqueline, sit tight, we're about to set off."

The off-road vehicle started slowly.

Homeless Aid Foundation - 10th Floor

He Ao stepped out of the elevator, looked at the staff sitting in the lobby with tentacles sprouting from their bodies, leaned on his cane, and calmly said, "Gentlemen, it's time to end this."

The piercing alarm bell rang from outside the window.

"It's the FBI! And those bastards from the Pollution Cleanup Division!"
