My physics masters couldn't possibly be grand mages.

They rushed into the sky corridor.

The passageway connecting the two buildings is quite long, several tens of meters.

The railings on both sides were made of tempered glass, most of which were now broken, with spiderweb-like cracks covering the remaining glass.

Su Ming was the first to rush out, then he stopped.

Fang Tang followed behind and almost bumped into his back.

Just as she was wondering why he had stopped, Zhao Lina, who was following behind her, covered her mouth and let out a gasp.

Xia Ya and Lin Guodong were the last to come out, and they locked the emergency exit door from the inside and sealed it with iron pipes.

Then they turned around, and the scene before them made Xia Ya and Lin Guodong hold their breath almost simultaneously.

flame.

The entire street was engulfed in flames, with raging tongues of fire shooting straight into the sky from the tall buildings.

Several giant corpses were already lying on the ground.

Huge limbs and pieces of flesh lay scattered on the ground, and the heavy stench of blood even stained the entire sky red.

Those giants standing between the buildings, like huge stone statues, almost all faced Cindira, who was floating in mid-air.

The blood wings appeared even more vibrant in the firelight.

Light was gathering in the dark, hollow eye sockets of those giants.

Tiny white dots of light, and they grew brighter and brighter.

Then--

"laugh!"

Blinding beams of light shot out from those empty eye sockets, piercing the night sky and all pointing at the dark red figure on the street.

Some beams of light streaked across the building, leaving behind trails of molten metal as the steel structure was cut and the metal dripped down as molten iron.

Then, Cindy pulled.

Her blood-red wings suddenly unfurled behind her, spanning nearly ten meters, resembling a cross nailed into the air in the firelight.

The next moment, she disappeared from the spot.

Or rather, it swept downwards at a speed that was impossible for the naked eye to perceive, leaving only a dark red afterimage in the field of vision.

Although lasers travel at the speed of light, these giants take too long to accumulate their power, making it easy to dodge them.

"boom!!!"

A sonic boom exploded above.

Fang Tang's ears buzzed, and she instinctively reached to cover them, but before she could even raise her hand, the dark red shadow had already swept across the neck of the first giant.

No one saw what happened in that instant.

All that could be heard was the sound of blood wings cutting through something.

"laugh--"

The wingtip grazed the giant's throat.

After a brief silence,

The giant's head slowly slid off its shoulders and hit the ground with a dull thud.

Dark red blood gushed out from the cut surface.

Like a volcanic eruption, a column of blood shot into the sky, spewing out more than ten meters high, turning into a cloud of blood mist in the flames, like a sudden downpour.

Blood mist filled the air.

Cindy was bathed in that rain of blood.

She tilted her head back, and the falling blood seemed to be drawn by an unseen hand, changing direction and rushing towards Cindy. The blood seeped into her skin and merged into her body.

Her skin turned even paler in that instant. Her lips were stained a vibrant red.

Cindy stood on the shoulder of the headless giant, with a huge, still trembling corpse beneath her feet, a cloud of blood mist above her head, and a burning street behind her.

She slowly opened her dark red eyes, which had no pupils.

Then she smiled.

The smile wasn't wide, but it was enough to reveal his sharp teeth. He let out a satisfied, guttural sound.

The sound wasn't loud, but everyone could hear it.

She wasn't fighting.

She is eating.

And those giants were her food.

"Ugh!!!"

Behind them, on the street, the giants emitted a series of whale-like roars from the depths of the fog.

But at this moment, everyone could hear one emotion in their voice—fear.

Su Ming's throat moved, feeling a bit thirsty, and the others reacted similarly.

Char didn't speak; he had actually been paying attention to the crack on Cindy's index finger.

So he asked Cindy if she needed to drink blood right from the start.

Her calm demeanor throughout the journey almost made Char think that she didn't need to eat like other vampires, but clearly, she had requirements regarding the quality of the blood.

It's fortunate that Einstein brought her here; if she were in the magical world, she would have been sucking the blood of countless people.

Char didn't speak; he simply gazed into the distance.

At this moment, the sky was being invaded by a deeper darkness, rising from the horizon like a sandstorm, forming a wall that reached the heavens and was about to engulf the city.

"Lin Yuan has been lured here." Su Ming's voice was low, and his face was somewhat pale.

Char snapped out of his daze, seemingly recalling some unpleasant memories, and his expression turned somewhat grim.

He looked at Cindy in the distance, his expression uncertain, as if he were weighing the pros and cons.

There are still things below the Iron Mountain base; she can't die here.

"Bang!"

A banging sound came from the passage door they had locked on one side, and pebbles and dust fell from the cracks in the wall, while the steel door gradually deformed.

Char took a deep breath and activated "Gas Manipulation" and "Circulation," just as "Energy Release" and "Conversion" can create both flames and electricity.

Besides its direct use in controlling gas, this rune has another application...

"Cindy!"

Char's voice was amplified several times, echoing throughout the entire block like a lion's roar.

Although they tried their best to control the direction of the sound, the vibration of the air still reached them, causing their chests to tremble violently and their ears to ring.

Cindy stopped her killing spree and turned to look at Char.

He stood on the skywalk, the night wind blowing his hair wildly, his dark pupils reflecting the flames burning all around him.

"Some tough guys are coming; you can't handle them!"

Cindy slowly turned her head to look at the "night" that was rapidly approaching them in the distance.

She sensed far more than Xia and the others, and her expression gradually became serious.

"Watch out!" Fang Tang's scream came from behind.

"call out--!"

Cindy turned her head to the side, and the beam of light grazed past her ear.

However, she was not unharmed; her ear was knocked off, and half of her face was charred by the terrifying instantaneous high temperature.

But in the next moment, countless dark red fleshy threads emerged, intertwining and merging. The charred old skin peeled away, revealing new, pale skin. The earlobe was reshaped and reformed within five seconds.

Cindy didn't waste any more time dealing with the giant who had attacked her.

Instead, it flew straight towards Char's direction.

"Bang!"

The emergency exit door, which had been locked, was forced open by the black waves.

Xia pulled Fangtang, and the iron pipe that had been knocked away almost grazed the spot where she had just been standing and stuck into the greenery on the side.

Accompanied by a tooth-grinding, sticky squeezing sound, the black wave surged out like a flood bursting its banks.

Everyone's heart was in their throat.

But in the next moment...

The blood spilled on the ground seemed to come alive, transforming into a wave that surged towards the Black Tide.

Broken glass, remnants of stainless steel railings, and writhing black fragments were slammed down into the passageway by the tide of blood, crashing onto the street below with a continuous, deafening roar.

"Walk!"

Xia didn't turn around. He grabbed Fang Tang and ran towards the other end of the corridor.
