He feigned madness for eighteen years, all for the power of a god.

Although those five extraordinary individuals were not strong, they were basically at the zero level, and some were not even at the tenth step.

But the sheer presence of the five of them standing together was quite astonishing.

Boss Zhang's gaze swept across the chaotic floor, finally landing on the headless corpse of the bomber in the distance, and his face instantly turned extremely ugly.

He muttered a curse under his breath, his voice filled with undisguised anger and disappointment:

"waste!"

"They can't even handle this small matter! Looks like we'll have to take matters into our own hands and silence them ourselves."

His thinking was very clear.

Although the extraordinary individuals under his command have mediocre talents, their strength has always been stuck at level zero.

He struggled even to deal with a few escaped freaks and monsters; otherwise, he wouldn't have spent a fortune hiring the club's extraordinary members.

They would never cooperate with a madman like the Bomber.

But the situation is different now.

Although the bomber was dead, which was beyond his expectations, the overall situation was still under his control.

According to the intelligence he had obtained, of the six extraordinary individuals who entered the building, only the two in front of him remained.

One is "the quack doctor Zhao He," a key pawn in his plan, and the other is a seemingly harmless, perceptive girl.

His choice to appear at this time was a deliberate and well-timed move.

In his view, after a series of hard-fought battles, especially against opponents of the caliber of the Bomber, he was able to overcome the challenges.

The extraordinary power within these two people must have been almost completely depleted.

Most importantly, they definitely used their abilities more than once.

However, using this ability comes at a price!

In this situation, it would be a piece of cake for the five Zero-level Extraordinary users on our side, who are waiting in comfort, to take down the two First-level Extraordinary users who are exhausted and paying the price.

Boss Zhang's voice echoed in the empty hall, sounding cold and confident:

"You two...you just used your abilities, right? If you don't pay the price, you'll die from exhaustion of your mental energy. I advise you not to put up a futile resistance."

He wore a mocking smile, like a cat catching a mouse, as if he had already got Bai Ye and Ling Xia figured out.

In his view, these two people were already trapped and unable to escape.

As he finished speaking, the five extraordinary individuals in black behind him slowly stepped forward.

Various extraordinary lights began to surge from his body, clearly indicating that he was preparing to activate his ability.

A powerful sense of oppression instantly enveloped the entire space.

Lingxia's face turned deathly pale in an instant. She subconsciously shrank back behind Baiye, her body trembling slightly with fear.

Five extraordinary individuals!

And they all look like ruthless killers!

She was just a newcomer who had only recently entered the extraordinary world; she had never seen anything like this before.

However, at this tense moment when swords were about to be drawn and war was imminent...

Bai Ye, who was standing in front of her, suddenly smiled.

He raised his hand and snapped his fingers crisply.

"Smack."

next second.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of violent explosions suddenly erupted without warning at the elevator entrance, in the passageway beneath the feet of the five extraordinary individuals in black!

Flames shot into the sky, and rubble flew everywhere!

The sturdy floorboards crumbled and collapsed instantly, like cookies being smashed by a giant hammer!

The violent explosion and collapse created a natural barrier.

In an instant, they blocked the path of the five men in black, separating them from Boss Zhang and Bai Ye.

The scene instantly descended into chaos and thick smoke.

"What's going on?! Cough cough... What the hell is going on?!"

From the other side of the ruins came Boss Zhang's roar, filled with shock and anger.

He was covered in dust and dirt, thrown to the ground by the blast wave, looking utterly disheveled.

He just couldn't understand it!

Wasn't the bomber already dead?!

Why was there still an explosion?!

Moreover, the timing and location at which the enemy detonated the bomb were absolutely precise!

It's like... it's like he can control those bombs!

"This guy..." He stared intently at the blurry figure in the thick smoke, a look of fear appearing in his eyes for the first time.

In the chaos, Bai Ye turned to Ling Xia, who was already terrified, and whispered:

"If you want to live, run! Run as fast as you can! Don't look back!"

"Huh? Oh! Okay!"

Lingxia was startled awake by his low shout, though she didn't know what had happened.

But out of her "faith" in Bai Ye, she did not hesitate at all and immediately turned around and rushed desperately towards the outside of the building.

On the other side of the ruins, Boss Zhang and his five men were furiously trying to clear away the obstacles in their path, wanting to rush over.

But the collapsed steel and concrete structures cannot be cleaned up in a short time.

They could only watch helplessly as Lingxia's figure receded into the distance.

Bai Ye stood quietly atop the ruins, like an elegant spectator.

He looked at the enemies struggling and roaring in the ruins, a near-mad, cold smile spreading across his face.

He slowly raised his hand, like a conductor on stage preparing to play the final movement.

He detonated all the grotesque cages that the bomb demon had imprisoned in various rooms!

"roar--!"

"Aww—!"

Countless imprisoned, hungry, and angry monsters burst forth like a floodgate opening, instantly breaking free of their restraints!

They swarmed out of the rooms from all directions.

Their scarlet eyes were fixed on the nearest living creature—Boss Zhang and his men!

An even more chaotic and bloody battle erupted in an instant!

Boss Zhang and his group of Level 0 Extraordinary individuals were instantly submerged by an endless tide of bizarre and grotesque phenomena.

Screams, roars, and the sound of claws tearing flesh rose and fell.

The scene was spectacular yet tragic.

Bai Ye watched all this quietly, his gaze passing through the chaotic battlefield and landing on Ling Xia, who had already run to the first-floor lobby and was about to rush out the door.

"That's about it."

He whispered.

"The third fireworks show has begun."

Just as Lingxia stepped out of the Jinmao Building,

Bai Ye detonated all the remaining bombs planted by the Bomb Demon in the building!

Boom! ...

An unprecedented, deafening roar resounded throughout the night sky!

The entire Jinmao Tower was like a volcano that had been detonated in an instant, collapsing layer by layer from the inside out!

Countless flames and thick smoke, mixed with fragments of reinforced concrete, shot into the sky.

It formed a huge, magnificent, and bloody "firework" in the night sky!

The light even illuminated half the city!

A second before the explosion, Bai Ye's body had already turned into an invisible shadow.

They sped away from this deathly place by skimming along the ground through an inconspicuous ventilation duct on the other side.

A series of messages flashed through his mind.
