Zhong Huaiyuan and his group took several fourth-tier superhumans with them on this trip, leaving the city's defense forces vulnerable.

Furthermore, Ke Yuanzhou's defection ultimately resulted in a severe shortage of mid-level combat power on the Binhai City side.

The gap between mid-level and low-level transcendents is enormous, and the fact that their opponents are not mindless savage creatures like merfolk put immense pressure on the dozen or so adventurers.

Xin Lei crouched behind an overturned truck, having already fired over a dozen explosive arrows, his quiver dwindling. Although not a main force in this battle, he was one of the few Tier 3 Transcendent beings on the scene who could maintain a steady output.

With the rest of their teammates either injured or dead, less than half of them were still able to fight.

"Oh shit."

Xin Lei gritted his teeth, drew the last three explosive arrows from the quiver, nocked them on the bowstring, and the moment the bowstring was fully drawn, the arrowheads of all three arrows burst into flames.

Then he released his grip, and the three arrows drew three arcs in the air, heading straight for the back of the fourth-tier transcendent being in the air.

Faced with the attack, the fourth-tier transcendent simply waved his hand, and a wave of energy surged from his palm, blasting all three explosive arrows away.

Xin Lei's pupils suddenly contracted!

However, this maneuver successfully drew the opponent's attention, giving the other teammates a brief chance to escape.

"Finally, am I going to die...?"

Xin Lei's mind was already racing, but just as he was about to give up and calmly face his death, a terrifying roar suddenly came from the sky.

The next second, visible sound waves came from afar, forcing the mid-level transcendent to abandon his attack on Xin Lei and instead begin to build a defense.

But just then, a pink figure suddenly appeared in the sky, moving so fast that it reached the person's side before he could react.

Lightning flashed!

Electrostatic field!

This time, Zhang Che did not let Ah Li hold back. The electric current, which reached the fourth level, directly penetrated the protective energy. Before Ah Li could react, his body began to tremble violently until his eyes rolled back and his mouth opened, but he still could not make a sound.

After about ten seconds, his body finally stopped struggling and fell from the sky like a piece of charred wood, crashing to the ground and scattering a cloud of gravel.

The next second, the edges of the corpse began to blur, as if it were being swallowed up from the inside by something, turning into black particles little by little and dissipating into the air, just like the masked man before, leaving no trace that could be traced.

"Tsk, as expected of one of only two super-ranked card makers, Master Lu's cards are truly amazing." Zhang Che remarked, then patted the Megalodon's dorsal fin, signaling it to hurry up and move to the next spot.

Ahri was able to kill him in one blow mainly because of the advantage of the surprise attack; otherwise, in a head-on fight, Ahri would never have been able to take him down so easily.

Therefore, Zhang Che must reap as many rewards as possible before his whereabouts are discovered.

Having narrowly escaped death, Xin Lei stood amidst the ruins as if he had lost his soul. Although he had several wounds on his body, the bleeding had been stopped thanks to his powerful physique.

He stared in the direction where the Megalodon had disappeared, his emotions churning for a long time.

After all, he had just survived a life-or-death crisis, and the fact that he could still stand here was already a testament to his strong will.

Soon, the teammates around him started to move around. Some were rummaging through first aid kits, while others were slumped on the ground, panting heavily.

Seeing this, Xin Lei quickly squatted down and began bandaging his injured teammates under his direction.

……

Megalodon initiates the team fight to draw attention, then Ahri uses [Spirit Strike] to approach the target and releases [Static Field].

Many unsuspecting fourth-tier superhumans perished under this combo attack. Even those who were exceptionally strong or lucky enough to escape were finished off by Fitz, who used [Giant Shark Assault] to finish them off.

It's a one-stop service.

Having eliminated three troublemaking fourth-tier superhumans through a sneak attack, Zhang Che was about to head to the next location when he suddenly sensed a familiar energy fluctuation. He turned around to look—

In the distance, beneath the sky, a golden energy sword over five meters long soared into the heavens, its dazzling light illuminating the area as bright as day, appearing particularly glaring against the twilight sky.

Blade of Courage?

Zhang Che recognized the move at a glance.

Then he saw the energy sword slash down hard towards the ground, but this powerful attack did not achieve the desired result. Instead, it was directly broken in two by the opponent.

Golden energy fragments scattered and flew everywhere, like shards of broken glass streaking through the air in golden trails.

Oh no, Fu Xing also has a mid-level transcendent!

Zhang Che immediately realized something was wrong. He didn't dare to delay and urged the Megalodon to rush towards the city guard camp in the northeast.

The Megalodon's speed surged to its limit in an instant, its dark blue scales even sparking tiny sparks from friction in the air, and its tail fin swung at nearly twice the frequency of before.

At the same time, Zhang Che also ordered Ahri to go to the rescue immediately. She is much faster than Megalodon. The sooner she arrives, the greater Fu Xing's chance of survival!

Without hesitation, Ahri vanished from the spot in a flash.

Meanwhile, in the training grounds of the city guard camp, Fu Xing knelt on one knee, panting heavily.

His body was trembling, not from fear, but from the natural reaction of overexerting himself.

He was gripping a long sword tightly in his hand, but it was clearly in very poor condition. The blade was dull and lusterless, and several chips had been chipped into the edge.

Agumon was bracing his back with his body to prevent him from falling to the ground.

Just a dozen seconds ago, he used all his strength to unleash his strongest sword strike to date...

After the Courage Blade he had used with all his might was broken, Fu Xing couldn't help but look at the fourth-tier superhuman who seemed to be unaffected not far away with some despair.

The burly man who appeared out of nowhere stood there, seemingly unharmed.

He was burly, nearly 2.5 meters tall, and covered in hard, gray-black skin, as if he were wearing a thick suit of armor.

A shiny bald head reflected a dark luster in the firelight. His features were rugged, with a sunken nose and thick lips slightly parted, revealing two rows of uneven teeth.

He was also looking at Fu Xing, his eyes filled with a hint of smugness: a mere second-tier insect could actually unleash such a powerful attack.

Chapter 124 [Tyrannomon], the power of courage!

This big guy appeared out of nowhere and immediately shattered the entire camp's defenses—seven or eight third-tier city guards, whose attacks were like tickles to him, while he could send them flying backward with a single casual strike.

In just a few minutes, he breached the city guard camp. The entire resistance force, composed of students and soldiers, was as fragile as paper in the face of the enemy's overwhelming strength.

Fu Xing was able to survive until the end because he was only a second-tier superhuman on the surface, and like the other students, he was not the main target of that big guy's attack.

The enemy's target was clearly the city guards.

That's why he had the opportunity to accumulate strength and prepare to deliver a powerful blow to the opponent.

Unfortunately, the gap in strength between the two sides was simply too great. Even with Fu Xing's overpowered skill, [Blade of Courage], he was still unable to achieve any effective results.

"interesting."

The big guy spoke, his voice deep and resonant, like two giant rocks rubbing against each other.

He took a step toward Fu Xing, who braced himself on his knees, gritted his teeth, gripped the broken sword tightly, and stood unsteadily in front of everyone.

The big guy stopped in his tracks when he saw this.

“I can spare your life.” His voice was hoarse, as if he were talking about something insignificant. “Come with me, and you will live.”

He stood motionless, his feet rooted to the ground, his hands behind his back, his blood-red eyes looking down at Fu Xing.

In his eyes, Fu Xing was merely a bargaining chip to gain more credit.

If he agrees, that would be best, but if he refuses, his fate will be much worse than others.

Therefore, the big guy didn't urge him, showed no impatience, and didn't even have any obvious emotional fluctuations. He just quietly stayed in place waiting for Fu Xing's answer.

Anyway, he has completely taken control of the situation and has plenty of time.

Fu Xing lowered his head, looking at the badly damaged longsword in his hand. He had originally planned to use it until he advanced to the mid-level extraordinary realm, but now things were not going as planned.

He turned around and glanced at his classmates who were trembling with fear behind him, then looked at the city guards who were still groaning on the ground not far away, and finally gritted his teeth.

"I can go with you, but you have to promise not to harm anyone else." Fu Xing's voice was hoarse; he was trying to exchange his own life for the safety of others.

"impossible."

The burly man's crisp and decisive answer extinguished the glimmer of hope that had just risen in Fu Xing's heart. Then, he revealed a cruel smile, indicating that these were all the vital forces of Binhai City, and his mission was to completely eliminate them.

The only benefit Fu Xing could gain by compromising was to save his own life.

Then there's nothing more to say. Since everyone is going to die, how could he possibly survive alone?

"I refuse."

Fu Xing spoke without hesitation; his voice was not loud, but every word was forceful and clear.

The big man narrowed his eyes slightly, his pupils contracting for a fleeting moment, and then he smiled—a smile that contained cruelty, mockery, and a hint of inexplicable admiration.

"Then go die."

The big guy's fist slammed down towards Fu Xing's face.

Fu Xing gripped his longsword and did not retreat an inch in the face of his opponent's attack!

Behind him were his classmates and comrades-in-arms; if he retreated, they would have no way to survive!

As long as I have a breath left, I cannot let that kind of thing happen!

Fu Xing gripped the broken sword, raised his head, and his aura changed. All the distracting thoughts in his mind were burned away by a scorching power at that moment.

His eyes calmed, his breathing became even, and his hand holding the sword stopped trembling.

The power of courage was reignited, and a golden light shone from the longsword, even brighter and purer than when he had exerted all his strength just now.

A surge of information, seemingly from nowhere, flooded into Fu Xing's mind, telling him that this was the true Blade of Courage!

Time seemed to stand still at that moment. Fu Xing could feel a warm, reassuring temperature in that light, like the first ray of winter sunshine shining into this devastated ruin.

At the same time, Agumon, who had been standing beside Fu Xing, began to glow. The pure and unreserved courage emanating from Fu Xing activated the hidden power within the information it carried.

A blurry pattern emerged from the orange light on Agumon's chest; it was the outline of a badge: the edges were triangles of varying sizes with flame-like patterns, and in the center were three concentric circles in the shape of a shield.

Although the pattern is still somewhat blurry, like an unfinished painting, its general shape is already discernible.

An orange light emanated from Agumon's chest, spreading outwards to its limbs and enveloping its entire body in a dazzling halo.

"Agumon, evolve!"

A slightly immature voice rang out, and a dazzling light of evolution exploded from Agumon's body. The orange light was mixed with the golden power of courage. The two forces intertwined, like two rivers flowing into the same ocean, merging and replenishing each other, constantly surging into Agumon's body, rebuilding it from the inside out.

The dense white light continued to expand and deform, and in the deepest part of the white light, a huge figure was taking shape.

First, there was a huge head, then a thick neck, a broad chest, strong hind legs, and a long tail; every muscle was so full and powerful.

The white light dissipated, and time began to flow again.
