On the Ark.

As he was thinking this, Lin Ye quietly gripped the knife beside him.

But to his surprise, the girl glanced around the crowd, spotted Lin Ye, and immediately greeted him: "Hey, employer, I'm here to deliver the goods."

brush.

Lin Ye felt the thugs' gazes focused on him again, and his face immediately turned green.

The rioters realized what was happening.

"Kill that guy!" someone commanded. "Control this brat, the Royal Guard is coming, we'll use them to negotiate with them!"

It’s over.

Lin Ye's face was ashen. He watched the thugs rush towards him, gritted his teeth, and mustered the last of his strength to run towards Nightingale and Ifrit. But he hadn't gone more than a few steps when one of the thugs blocked his way and swung his knife at him. Lin Ye was about to raise his knife to retaliate when he saw the thug's head explode, as if it had been smashed open.

He was stunned.

"Didn't you hear me?" the girl's voice rang out. "That's my employer over there."

Lin Ye turned his head and found that the girl was still standing in the same place, but she was holding a short submachine gun (Vector) in one hand and making a V sign at him with the other.

"Penguin Logistics Package No. 1!" The girl had a bright smile on her face. "The package has been delivered. Just wait to sign for it. Since we were ten minutes late, we'll give you a 50% discount this time."

The rioters finally realized what was happening and started shouting.

“Sakorta! It’s Sakorta!”

Sakta?

Lin Ye felt the term sounded somewhat familiar, but couldn't quite place it. However, he didn't need to remember. The girl unzipped her backpack and flung it forward. Seven or eight spears flew out, but didn't land; instead, they hovered in mid-air. The halo above the girl's head and the wings behind her emitted a blinding light. The spears seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, gathering behind her and forming another kind of "wings" for her.

Lin Ye was stunned.

Is this magic or Originium Arts? But whatever it is, this is the first time he has ever seen such a technique.

And only now has the performance officially begun.

The girl first used her "dagger" to blow the heads off several knife-wielding thugs, then tossed the "dagger" behind her and retrieved a long rifle from among the group of "wings." She fired with pinpoint accuracy, this time targeting the warlocks hiding at the back who were trying to unleash spells on her. Her marksmanship was exceptional; she almost never missed a shot. Beneath each ejected cartridge case lay a shattered head, and in an instant, the already small group of warlocks became motionless corpses.

"Let's rock out!" the girl laughed, tossing aside her long gun. She then rolled away to dodge attacks from several thugs, pulled two submachine guns from behind her back, and facing an enemy about to reach her face, this time she didn't choose to fire in bursts, but shouted, "Next up is bullet hell!"

Then unleash full power!

The ejected cartridge cases clattered as they hit the ground, the crisp gunshots sounding like the footsteps of death.

The rioters faced the hail of metal bullets with their bare hands.

Death's scythe reaped lives row by row.

Lin Ye stared blankly, then suddenly remembered the meaning of the word "Sarkata".

Sarkaz corresponds to demons.

And Sarkaz... corresponds to the angel.

Yes, the beautiful girl who was putting on a killing spree in front of him... she's an angel!?

“Lord!” she cried, laughing, “Let me save them! I’ve reserved a property in a prime location in hell for you, don’t worry!”

Three minutes later.

There were no living rioters left at the scene.

The girl stood before the piled-up corpses, the halo around her forehead growing ever brighter.

Lin Ye felt that his worldview... had collapsed.

Chapter Sixty-One: Guest, Please Settle the Bill

The battle ended too quickly.

Despite being overwhelmingly outnumbered, the battle turned into a complete rout. The red-haired girl single-handedly "saved" all the thugs present, redefining Lin Ye's understanding of "angels." After precisely eliminating the last few thugs who tried to use Nightingale and Ifrit as hostages, the battle was finally over. The red-haired angel stood amidst the corpses, the evening breeze streaming in through the broken windows ruffling her hair, adding a touch of nonchalance to her confident and cheerful smile.

Afterward, she put all the guns back into the backpack and slung it over her shoulder without batting an eye. This gave Lin Ye a more direct understanding of the explosive power within this slender girl.

Seeing her, and then thinking of Ifrit, Lin Ye realized that the angels and demons in this world were all formidable fighters.

He struggled to his feet and then saw the girl begin cleaning up the battlefield, picking up the broken bullet casings one by one.

Although he had many questions he wanted to ask the red-haired girl, Lin Ye had more important things to do. He endured the pain and limped over to Nightingale's side.

Nightingale, overwhelmed by the shock, had fainted. Lin Ye checked her breathing and, finding it steady, felt relieved. However, seeing the swelling on her face, Lin Ye felt an urge to drag the seemingly dead thug back to life for another three hundred rounds. Then, remembering how Nightingale had helplessly called him "Pineapple Bun" when the drug wore off, a profound sense of powerlessness welled up within Lin Ye.

Fortunately, at least he survived. If something had really happened, Lin Ye wouldn't know how to explain it to Shining.

Although if the red-haired angel hadn't come, he would most likely have died before Nightingale.

As for Ifrit, she hasn't woken up from her coma yet. This little devil impressed Lin Ye at the beginning, but was ambushed and has been unconscious ever since. If she hadn't been ambushed, Lin Ye and Nightingale wouldn't be in such a desperate situation. After all, he had witnessed Ifrit's strength before; she reminded him of Natsu from Fairy Tail—practically a female version of Charmander.

At this moment, the red-haired angel finished picking up the bullet casings and walked over to Lin Ye, greeting him with a smile: "Hey, customer, why are you looking so worried? Your package was delivered safely, wasn't it?"

Lin Ye didn't quite understand what the red-haired angel was saying: "What exactly is this package you're talking about?"

"Death," the red-haired angel shrugged, gesturing for Lin Ye to look at the corpse behind her. "Was it safely delivered?"

Looking at the girl's radiant smile, and then at the corpses scattered on the ground behind it, Lin Ye felt that even the halo above her head had become terrifying.

His lips twitched, and he couldn't help but ask, "Are you really an angel?"

"Huh? You know my codename?" The red-haired angel tilted her head. "My name is Exia, that's right."

“…Sarkata?”

“Hmm, it seems you know us.” Exusiai put down her backpack, then took out a small notebook from her pocket and started writing and drawing in it. “But more than my race, I hope you remember my job… Penguin Logistics! We transport life and death.”

That was a philosophical answer, but Lin Ye had a more pressing question. He looked up at the halo above Exusiai's head and asked, "Is that a special effect?"

"what?"

"How did you get it up there?" Lin Ye asked. "I don't think I saw any wires..."

"What are you talking about...tsk, it seems you only know the name of our race." Exusiai shook her head, pointing to the halo on her forehead, "Consider this a free lesson, it's a characteristic of us Sarkaz."

"Can you turn it off?"

"I've also thought of ways to do it."

"Then what will you do when you sleep?"

Exusiai sighed: "My dream is to be able to sleep at night without an eye mask."

Lin Ye was amused.

Ignoring the red-haired angel's violent marksmanship, Lin Ye felt that she was quite humorous, a stark contrast to her previous combat skills.

Then he suddenly remembered something: "Oh right, next..."

“It should be almost over by now,” Exusiai said. “When I came up, the Guard Bureau had already returned to defend and stormed the middle floors of the building. Commander Chen personally led the team. Let’s see how it went…”

As soon as she finished speaking, footsteps echoed in the hallway again. Several more thugs ran up to the top floor, and Lin Ye immediately tensed up, but Exusiai pressed down on his shoulder and shook her head: "Don't worry, we don't need to intervene anymore."

As if to verify her words, the thugs had only run out of the stairs for a few seconds when a white blade flashed past.

Several thugs slowly fell to the ground, their bodies shattered into pieces.

Afterwards, Commander Chen, whom Lin Ye had met before, led the Guard Bureau personnel to the top floor. When she saw the corpses scattered all over the top floor, Commander Chen's expression was somewhat surprised, but her surprise gradually subsided after seeing Exusiai and Lin Ye, especially Exusiai.

As Commander Chen approached them, Exusiai stroked her chin and said softly, "I wonder who's stronger, her or Texas."

"Huh?" Lin Ye looked at Exia.

"It's nothing." Exusiai shook her head, then greeted Chen with a smile, "Good evening, Commander Chen."

Chen's expression was indifferent: "It seems I can see you everywhere."

"There's nothing we can do; the employer requires it, so we come to their door," Exusiai said with a smile.

Perhaps because he already knew Exusiai, Chen didn't say much. Instead, he turned to look at Lin Ye, and Nightingale and Ifrit behind Lin Ye: "Are they alright? Should I call the medical staff to come and take a look?"

"If it's possible, please help me."

"It's nothing." Chen shook his head, then turned and left, seemingly not intending to say anything more to Lin Ye.

But Lin Ye still called out to Chen: "Have you seen Night Blade?"

Chen paused for a moment: "Yato is injured, but not in mortal danger. You Rhodes Island people are lucky; you're all still alive."

Lin Ye breathed a sigh of relief. Although he wasn't familiar with Ye Dao, she had saved him after all, and Lin Ye didn't want anything to happen to her: "W has been caught, right?"

"W?" Chen frowned, turning to look at Lin Ye. "Who is that?"

Lin Ye was stunned.

Seeing Lin Ye's expression, Chen guessed what had happened. His eyes turned cold, and he turned to leave: "Someone escaped. Guard Bureau, search the entire city!"

"Yes!"

The Guards immediately followed Chen.

Hearing that W had escaped, Lin Ye was still somewhat speechless. After all, that guy looked like no ordinary person; he was clearly a leader among terrorists. Hopefully, he wouldn't cause any trouble later.

Wait a minute, is this setting a flag for the future?

While Lin Ye was pondering, Exusiai was writing something in her notebook again, and then suddenly tore the paper off.

"Well then, customer, now that you've signed for the goods, please pay the bill," Exusiai said with a smile. "You chose Package Number One, which is me. Since I'm ten minutes late, I'll give you a 20% discount. Thank you for your patronage."

Lin Ye took the bill, glanced at it, and thought he was seeing things.

I closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and then opened them again.
