He Ao was silent for a moment, then pulled out a cigarette from under his trench coat, lit it, and put it in his mouth.

Next to Monica's body was a small ventilation window. Through this window, he could vaguely see the silent night sky and the city dotted with stars under the night sky.

The vast city of Dawn lay at his feet.

He slowly walked to the side and pulled out the short sword that had just been thrown away and stuck in the ground.

Christos had now recovered enough to stand up straight. He looked at Monica's body and remained silent for a moment.

Monica invited him to the concert, and she was also the one who texted him to come backstage. He usually doesn't want to offend his friends in the media, so even though he doesn't like these kinds of concerts, he still came.

He slowly walked to Qi Ke's body and gazed at the beautiful woman who had already died.

Kiko's body was slowly changing as she died; her sexy cheeks were slightly drooping, and her brown hair was gradually lightening, fading back to a shimmering gold.

“So,” Christos stared at Kiko’s corpse, “was Kiko just an identity that this ‘dancer’ was in disguise?”

Christos actually had a good impression of Kiko, firstly because Kiko herself had a very good reputation, and secondly because Kiko's singing voice was truly moving. He always believed that singing is the window to the soul.

This is also why he was initially unwilling to believe that Kiko was a 'dancer'.

“It’s not necessarily a disguise,” He Ao said, having already walked to the exquisite birdcage. The little bird inside was unaware of what was happening around it and continued to chirp to itself.

He paused for a moment, then slowly added, "People are complex."

Birds in the abyss sometimes look up, yearning for the azure sky.

He Ao slowly opened the cage door.

The canary in the cage looked at the open cage door, hesitated for a moment, and slowly picked itself out, landing right on He Ao's fingertips.

Heo held up the canary, pointed to the open ventilation window, and whispered, "You are free."

The canary couldn't understand He Ao's words. It looked up at He Ao, flapped its wings, and flew towards the ventilation window in the direction of the wind.

It flew towards the sky that belonged to it.

He Ao lowered his head and looked at Qi Ke's corpse.

Her brown hair has completely faded back to its shimmering gold, and her sexy face has returned to its adorable state.

The eyes that had been staring intently at the birdcage were now closed, and the slightly open mouth had also shut completely at some point.

All that remained was a slight upturn at the corners of her mouth.

She seemed to be smiling.

Sometimes, death is also a kind of freedom.

······

He Ao crouched down, glanced at the shocking wound on Qi Ke's neck that he had bitten, and then checked Qi Ke's breathing and heartbeat.

Well, dead.

The change in expression is likely a result of the body gradually recovering from the modifications made by the supernatural ability.

If you're dead, don't change your expression randomly.

For a moment, He Ao even thought she was about to come back to life.

Do you know what her talent sequence is?

Heo turned to look at Christos and asked slowly.

“Hmm?” Christos paused for a moment, then explained softly, “I don’t know much about her, but judging from her title, she might be Talent Sequence 61: Dancer. Dancer should be an advancement of Talent Sequence 34: Waiter. As for what the next advancement sequence is after Dancer, I don’t know. If you want to know, you can probably look for the answer in the black market.”

"Thank you."

He Ao thanked him softly, then opened the attribute panel.

[He Ao (Roy)]

[Privilege Level: Regular Player]

Physical fitness: 80 (90)

[Skills: Talent Sequence 272: Super Memory (Soul Binding) (D-Rank), Basic Firearms Mastery (Soul Part)]

Mechanical modification: None

[Martial Arts: Refining Essence into Qi (Rank E) (Unusable)]

[Character Skill: Talent Sequence 29: Mercenary (Rank E)]

He Ao's super memory level changed from E to D, and his soul strength also increased greatly. Even the injuries he had just suffered were healing at a speed that could be clearly perceived.

What is the meaning of this state?

I've experienced this once before.

That's when you take the 'waiter's' secret medicine.

Therefore, when he bit Qi Ke's neck, what flowed into his throat was not only Qi Ke's blood, but also Qi Ke's talent sequence.

He attempted to detonate his super memory, and a massive amount of power surged into his body.

此刻他的身体素质从90提升到了227,增长了137,比之前侍应生带来的57点的增幅多了80点。

Although these 137 points did not reach the 150-point increase for D-level, He Ao clearly felt that the improvement in his body's flexibility and suppleness was far greater than that in strength. In this respect, the increase in Super Memory should have exceeded that of ordinary D-level.

At the same time, the ability of hypermemory itself has also undergone some changes.

The original hyper memory could only remember the surrounding environment and details, and could simulate the opponent's combat mode in the burst state. But now the hyper memory seems to have some additional abilities. What it 'sees' is no longer just the purely physical environment, but also some 'ethereal' shadows.

For example, Monica, who is now dead, is shrouded in a faint, fading shadow. Kiko also has a similar shadow, but it has completely disappeared. However, even so, the shadow on Kiko is much denser than that on Monica.

He tried to 'touch' these shadows, and as soon as the idea popped into his mind, he instantly felt the dissipating shadows being disturbed by him.

In that instant, he felt a part of his consciousness enter a dead, blank area. He tried to disturb this area, but there was no response.

Perhaps it's because they were the deceased?

As he interfered, the soul power consumed by his super memory suddenly increased.

He quickly regained consciousness, and the enormous drain on his energy came to an abrupt end.

This must be the mutation of the 'Dancer's' 'Charm' ability after it was absorbed by Hypermemory?

However, unlike when taking the waiter's secret medicine, He Ao could also faintly hear some extremely faint 'murmurs' while using the super memory.

Heo pondered, then turned his gaze from the two dead bodies to Christos beside him.

Just as he had guessed, the shadow on Christos had not dissipated, and was far more intense than the shadows of Kiko and Monica, but this shadow was currently flickering like a candle flame.

"what happened?"

Christos looked up at Heo.

“It’s alright,” He Ao said, holding his short sword and deactivating his super memory. “Let’s go out.”

"it is good,"

Christos responded and followed behind Heo.

“Roy, you say,” Christos suddenly asked softly from behind, just as Heo walked towards the side door he had come in through.

"If there were no conglomerates or witch churches in this world, or if the witch church were severely restricted instead of being protected by conglomerates as a black glove, would someone like Kiko really have grown into a kind and lovely idol singer?"

“I don’t know,” He Ao replied calmly. “There are no ‘what ifs’ in this world. If you want to know the answer, go and try it yourself.”

Just then, loud gunshots rang out from the theater outside.

He Ao

Rushed out suddenly.

-

With dynamic music and hot dancing girls, the entire theater seemed to be immersed in a sea of ​​wild excitement.

The audience waved their glow sticks wildly, both men and women, their cheeks flushed, shouting excitedly.

The sexy woman leading the dance at the front had a gentle and charming smile on her face, but her beautiful eyebrows were slightly furrowed.

The dance had been going on for almost ten minutes.

Although the audience's emotions were rising, things were gradually going off track.

The sacrificial array, which should theoretically activate at the seventh minute, has not yet been activated. While it's possible for these basic superhumans to perform a one-on-one sacrificial ritual using dance, a sacrificial array constructed from superhuman materials is necessary to achieve the desired effect for such a large-scale sacrifice.

At this moment, the sacrificial array seemed to have failed. The array that had been set up seemed to have been destroyed by someone. Although the ordinary believers of the church had gone to check, she still had a strong sense of foreboding.

In particular, Kiko, who is the regional head and a chosen one of God, has not appeared for ten minutes, and Monica, who went to check on the situation, has also disappeared without a trace.

It was as if an invisible hand was pushing the whole event away from the control of the Witch Church.

Just then, a huge howling sound came from the sky.

The rooftop amphitheater at the top of the Nord Tower is a semi-open-air theater with an openable roof that reveals a stunning view of the starry sky.

At this moment, the open-air canopy is open.

The sexy woman looked up and saw only several helicopters floating beneath the stars.

Accompanying these helicopters were a blonde woman descending from the sky, followed by fully armed FBI agents.

"Teams one and two, separate the stage from the audience. Team three, go to safety exits 1 to 4. Team four, go to safety exits 5 to 8. Note that priority should be given to protecting civilian safety."

When He Ao rushed out of the backstage area, the first thing he saw was a chaotic crowd evacuating, and in front of the crowd, FBI agents with guns and riot shields surrounding the entire stage.

“FBI, we suspect you have ties to a cult,” Selena said, standing in the group watching the beautiful girls dancing quietly on stage. She gently raised her hand, and a red olive shield emblem appeared in front of her—the FBI’s encrypted insignia. “This is an arrest warrant. Please cooperate. If you resist arrest, I have the right to kill you on the spot.”
