Desperate people, accept the seed of my soul!

"kill!"

The enhanced soldiers let out hoarse roars, and the blue light in their eyes intensified.

They were unaware of the truth about the potion and were still desperately clinging to the promises made by Bai Xiao.

On the hillside, the commander of the Dark Web's assault team was also adjusting his tactics.

He saw the Five Mountains Alliance's reinforced soldiers launch a frenzied counterattack and immediately realized that the other side wanted to seize the Song Dynasty before the effects of the drug wore off.

"Everyone, listen up! Don't engage the Five Mountains Alliance in a direct confrontation. Keep your distance and use ranged fire to wear them down. Their potions have a time limit; they won't last long."

The Dark Web commandos began to consciously retreat, increasing the distance between themselves and the enhanced soldiers, using precision shooting and grenades to wear them down.

Unable to catch up with the Dark Web's assault team, the enhanced soldiers roared angrily and charged toward another target—the Blade Squadron.

They rushed to the side of the heavy transport vehicle.

Yue Sheng personally guarded the front of the detention cell. Most of the guards around him had already fallen, and they were almost out of ammunition.

He had just picked up a submachine gun from the ground when he saw three enhanced soldiers rushing towards him from different directions.

There wasn't time to change the magazine.

He threw away his submachine gun and drew his bayonet from his waist.

Then a blinding blue arc of electricity struck down from above the detention cell.

The three enhanced soldiers were simultaneously struck by electric current, their bodies convulsing violently as they collapsed to the ground, black smoke rising from their skin.

Liu Zhen stood on top of the detention cell, his hands pressed against the outer shell, blue arcs of electricity swirling around him.

Immediately afterwards, the concrete on the road surface cracked open.

Six thick green vines burst from the crack in the ground, each one wrapping around an enhanced soldier charging toward the detention pod, lifting them high, and then slamming them down onto the armored vehicle beside them.

The reinforced soldier's body was embedded in steel, and all his bones were shattered.

Meng Zhaowen emerged from the other end of the canyon, his hands in his pockets, the vines beneath his feet spreading across the battlefield like living things.

Shen Qinghou sat cross-legged on a rock, with the broken-stringed guqin lying across his legs.

His fingers brushed across the strings, each pluck releasing a deadly sonic wave.

The sound waves pierced through the night, precisely striking the firing positions of the Five Mountains Alliance and the Dark Web on the hillside.

Xu Suyuan emerged from the void, twirling a coin between her fingers.

Her gaze swept across the battlefield before settling on a heavy transport vehicle.

Lin Shen and Shen Hanzhou stood behind her.

The Fire Seed organization arrived.

"Captain Yue."

Xu Suyuan spoke, her voice traveling through the roar of gunfire to Yue Sheng's ears.

"Don't shoot. We're here to help you."

Yue Sheng did not loosen his grip on the military dagger.

"What proof do you have?"

"No proof is needed. If I wanted to take someone away, you'd be dead by now."

As soon as Xu Suyuan finished speaking, a very faint clicking sound came from the detention cell.

Behind the explosion-proof glass, a faint bloody glow began to appear on Song Chao's body.

His eyes were not yet open, but his fingers were trembling slightly, and fine cracks began to appear on the surface of the alloy shackles.

"He is absorbing our power."

Shen Hanzhou spoke, his tone tinged with surprise.

"His bloodline abilities are absorbing the supernatural energy overflowing from us."

Heo So-won glanced at the detention cell and then made a decision.

"Everyone, move closer. Focus your power and release it on him."

"You're crazy."

Yue Sheng stopped her.

"Once he wakes up—"

"He killed the people who harmed him, not the people who saved him."

Xu Suyuan pushed his arm away and placed her hand on the outer shell of the detention cell.

A surge of void power erupted from her palm, passing through the electromagnetic shielding layer and the interference of the suppressor, before entering Song Chao's body.

Liu Zhen also placed his hand on it.

Then came Meng Zhaowen.

The forest is deep.

Shen Qinghou.

Shen Hanzhou.

Five people, five different supernatural powers, were simultaneously injected into the detention pod.

The suppressor inside the detention cell emitted a piercing alarm, all the indicator lights on the panel turned red, the power overload protection tripped, and the suppressor burned out.

The electromagnetic shielding layer cracked with countless fine lines under the impact of five extraordinary forces.

Then the Song Dynasty opened its eyes.

Those dark red eyes lit up inside the detention cell, like two lanterns rising from the depths of hell.

The alloy shackles shattered into powder on his wrists.

He sat up, raised his hand, and looked at his palm.

The needle marks on his palms, left by the military doctor's puncture sampling, were healing rapidly, and new skin covered all the wounds within seconds.

He looked up and saw Xu Suyuan through the bulletproof glass.

Xu Suyuan released her hand from the detention cell and took a step back.

"Song Dynasty, come with us."

Her voice was very soft, but everyone could hear it clearly.

"The Fireseed Organization has only one rule: mutual protection. You help us, we help you. No one can make you a scapegoat anymore."

Song Chao looked at her for a long time.

Then he nodded.

Xu Suyuan raised her hand and waved, and the Void Imprisonment Barrier blocked all the soldiers of the Sharp Blade Brigade five meters away.

Liu Zhen used an electric current to burn through the fixing bolts of the detention chamber.

Meng Zhaowen's vines emerged from the ground, gently lifting Song Chao's body and moving him out of the detention cell.

"Walk."

At Xu Suyuan's command, all members of the Fire Seed organization activated their abilities simultaneously.

Ripples appeared in the void.

The next second, all six people disappeared.

All that remained were the empty detention cells and the devastated battlefield.

Yue Sheng stood there, staring at the charred suppressor in the detention cell, and remained silent for a long time.

Then he slowly took off his headphones and said something to the empty canyon.

"Report to headquarters. Target has been kidnapped. Kidnappers: Fireseed Organization."

His voice was eerily calm.

But the soldiers around him saw that his knuckles were white as he gripped the bayonet, and the hilt of the bayonet groaned under the strain of his hand.

The roar of armed helicopter rotors came from the sky.

The reinforcements have arrived.

Before the transport helicopter even landed, the cabin door had already opened, and fully armed soldiers filed out of the cabin.

The commander in charge's face darkened instantly when he saw the corpses scattered on the ground and the charred detention cells.

"Captain Yue, where's the target?"

"They've been kidnapped."

Yue Sheng tucked his bayonet back into his waistband and turned to look at the remaining Five Mountains Society soldiers who were still fleeing on the hillside.

"But the kidnappers were from the Fireseed organization, so we can't catch them. Therefore—"

He raised his hand and pointed to the dense forest on the hillside.

"Leave behind everything that can be caught up with."

The soldiers of the Sharp Blade Brigade had been holding back their anger for a long time.

From the moment the Song Dynasty was abducted, everyone carried a heavy burden in their hearts.

They lost three hundred comrades, Minister Zhao Yuanzheng, and eight commanders. They finally managed to capture Song Chao, only to have him kidnapped right under their noses.

Since the Fire Seed Organization has run away, the blame should fall entirely on the Five Mountains Alliance.

"All units, listen up!"

Yue Sheng's voice boomed across the communication channel.

"Leave no armed personnel on the hillside alive!"

The armed helicopters took off, and machine gun shells rained down from the sky, turning the dense forest into a sea of ​​fire.

Armored vehicles rolled over bushes and surged up the hillside, while machine guns rampaged through the dense forest, shells piercing tree trunks and tearing the Five Mountains Society members hiding behind them to shreds along with the trees.

The soldiers of the Sharp Blade Brigade charged into the woods with their rifles in hand, their eyes bloodshot.

They do not want prisoners.

The white owl frantically fled through the forest.
