Douluo Continent: Gretchen at the start, empowered by the Star God.

Chapter 135 Möbius's Spying

"Is this... the wind?"

Little Ellie felt that the air around her seemed to become restless.

"Watch closely." Lang Lei's golden pupils seemed to be glowing at that moment.

That's right, he wanted to create a tornado in this place, one that would be strong enough to affect everyone in the city.

If they still don't run for their lives when faced with a crisis, then it can only be said that they are truly powerless.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew, and Xiao Aili's hair began to fly, with strands occasionally brushing against Lang Lei's cheeks, making him feel itchy.

"Let's wake them up first." A large amount of fire and lightning elemental energy appeared in Lang Lei's hands at the same time, and then he combined them together in the air. "Aili, cover your ears."

Little Ellie obediently covered her ears, and Lang Lei thoughtfully covered them with a soundproof film.

The instant Lang Lei released control, a deafening explosion rang out from high above, and at the same time, a gale began to howl, and the sky began to darken.

Lang Lei didn't immediately maximize the tornado's power; he just created a frightening outline. If he didn't give those people some time to escape, he would be killing them...

But at this moment, the gale driven by Lang Lei had gathered all the surrounding moisture, and the sky was now dark and oppressive.

"Everyone, in twenty minutes, an even more violent natural disaster will sweep across the city center. Now, do everything you can to escape." Lang Lei activated his soul power to make his voice resound throughout the city. Whether the other party believed him or not, he had at least done it. After that, whether they lived or died was none of his concern.

He didn't care whether this would cause social unrest or anything like that. At this moment, nothing was more important than life, right?

Besides, explaining to the public that it was a matter of state organs or, in other words, a case of moths drawn to a flame, how would he, a mere ordinary citizen, know such things?

Thirty minutes later, this was the time Lang Lei had predicted when the collapse would completely erupt.

Twenty-five minutes later, no matter what, he will forcibly take Little Ellie away from this place.

At this moment, some people chose to believe Lang Lei and began to pack their things and drive out of the city.

Of course, some people were cursing and swearing at Lang Lei for disturbing their sleep, while sitting on the windowsill, ready to pick up their so-called "weapons" online if nothing happened in twenty minutes.

Little Ellie looked at Lang Lei, who was holding her in his arms, her eyes sparkling.

Not only Little Ellie, but also in a hotel not far from the city center park, a green-haired woman stared with shining eyes at Lang Lei, who had golden dragon wings on his back, in the sky.

That's right, it was the still young Mebius.

With Mebius's intelligence, she had long understood the concept of Honkai; her father's personality had drastically changed due to Honkai disease. She could also guess that the other party's actions were likely to save those foolish humans.

However, now that he knew from the other party that a disaster was about to break out, Mebius was no fool, so of course he had to retreat first.

As for the mysterious man and the little girl he was holding...

She had a feeling that they would definitely meet again in the future.

Therefore, there's no need to rush.

Five minutes...

……

Fifteen minutes...

Twenty minutes...

Time ticked by, and Lang Lei counted the minutes with his eyes closed. At the twenty-five-minute mark, Lang Lei suddenly opened his eyes.

"Is it time?" Little Ellie asked nervously.

"Yes, it's time." Lang Lei nodded.

"under……"

"Let them live and die as they please, let them be rich and poor as they are determined by fate..." Lang Lei said. "Since they firmly believe in their own ideas, we must take responsibility for them."

"Even if the price is their lives?"

"Even if the price is their lives."

"Okay." Little Ellie stopped being unreasonable, after all, she knew that Lang Lei had done everything they could.

Lang Lei took one last look at the bustling city and activated his innate skill.

In an instant, the situation changed dramatically.

The sky grew even darker, and dark clouds began to surge, like rolling black waves rapidly approaching from the horizon. The self-proclaimed wise men of the city were still unaware of the impending danger; the wind had already begun to howl, like a thousand horses galloping in. The trees lining the streets swayed violently in the gale, their leaves and branches whipped up and scattered into the air.

Langley deliberately controlled the area affected by the tornado, so the areas where people were still fleeing would not be affected for the time being.

Suddenly, a massive funnel-shaped cloud pillar descended from the sky, like a ferocious dragon, rampaging through the city. The scene at the eye of the tornado was horrific. Signs were uprooted and floated in the air like paper airplanes; cars were lifted dozens of meters into the air before crashing heavily to the ground with deafening roars.

Buildings were incredibly vulnerable under the onslaught of the tornado; windowpanes shattered, scattering shards everywhere; rooftops were ripped off by the powerful suction, sending tiles, wooden planks, and other debris swirling and flying through the air. For a moment, sand and dust filled the air, plunging the entire city into a state of chaos. Streetlights were knocked down by the gale, and exposed power lines flickered with dangerous sparks.

Panicked, the "wise men" scattered in all directions, screams and cries filling the air. Power lines were paralyzed by the tornado, plunging the streets into darkness, with only occasional flashes of lightning illuminating the horrific scene. Some of the "wise men" sought refuge in basements or sturdy buildings, clutching their heads and praying for the disaster to pass quickly. Faced with such a powerful "natural disaster," their strength seemed so insignificant.

Aside from the "wise ones," some of the earlier-born rush-class Honkai Beasts and zombies were also affected.

Unlike humans, they lack intelligence and therefore have no idea how to avoid it. They are passively swept into the tornado and torn to pieces by the rampaging debris inside.

This is certainly one of Lang Lei's goals, since killing Honkai Beasts can also accumulate the chilling aura of the King of Hell.

In just a short while, the accumulated chilling aura reached five hundred, and at this moment, this number is still rising.

Wherever the tornado struck, nothing escaped its devastation. Schools, hospitals, shops, and residential areas were all severely damaged. Hospital windows were shattered, and medical equipment was scattered everywhere; on school playgrounds, desks, chairs, and textbooks were swept away without a trace; shop shelves were overturned, and goods were strewn all over the ground. In that moment, all social order seemed to have been destroyed.

But compared to a true Honkai outbreak, these are nothing more than a drop in the ocean.

"We should go." Lang Lei's voice was weak; this was the first time he had ever used up so much of his soul power.
