The bishop is unfathomable.

Wing Blades. The Falcon's innate skill, which requires no resource consumption, proved reliably useful in this situation.

The falcon's wings, as hard and sharp as metal, can be used not only as weapons but also as shields.

The results were even better than Li Wei had imagined.

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Wei used his wings to force back the two invisible assassins wielding knives. Then, he took a step back to create distance and immediately threw a lightning bomb at the two attackers.

The next moment, as the rising dust and lightning obscured the vision of the two still-dazed assassins, or perhaps after killing them, Li Wei immediately controlled his wings and flew into the sky.

LOL, if he can fly, why would he stay put and fight head-on?

He still remembered that there were a bunch of people lying in ambush on both sides of the street.

As soon as he took to the air, the assassins who had been lying in ambush in the houses on both sides of the street immediately came out and aimed countless guns and cannons at him as he took off.

But just as they raised their guns, two more grenades were flung away by Li Wei.

These assassins, who hadn't even had a chance to deploy their forces, were instantly blasted away by the lightning bombs, turning into a pile of charred, electrocuted corpses.

"It's not over yet!"

It was that female voice again, seemingly out of nowhere, but this time Li Wei didn't dwell on it. Instead, heeded the other person's advice and continued to raise his altitude.

Until the entire block was in his sight, RealSight captured the details of the street.

The two snipers who fired the first shot have been eliminated; that much is certain.

The group of armed soldiers who had just rushed out were wiped out by two grenades.

This is the difference between extraordinary people and ordinary people.

Although ordinary people can use a dagger or a bullet to kill a superhuman below the third energy level when the superhuman is unprepared.

But if the superhuman manages to dodge the first wave of attacks, or is prepared, then the situation will be reversed.

But to be honest, this group was quite well prepared.

In fact, if he hadn't just mastered the Soul Possession skill and hadn't been able to dispel it, this would have been a certain death situation.

Not to mention there are two assassins of unknown ability levels.

Through the lingering smoke and dust, Li Wei could tell that the two assassins were definitely not weak, and were also rare superhumans with enhanced physical abilities.

Because of the lightning strike, the two only suffered some burns, their vision was obscured by the smoke, and they coughed violently.

But apart from that, there's nothing seriously wrong overall.

These kinds of people...aren't they usually only found in places like the Church of Radiance, the military, and the Bureau of Inspection?

Who exactly are these people?

Soon, he understood why that voice, which seemed to come from nowhere, had warned him.

It wasn't the presence of those two superhuman assassins who possessed stealth abilities that threatened him, but rather the specialized combat android that was initially hidden in a corner and not even noticed by Li Wei at first glance.

True Sight can see through illusions, spells, and all other hidden means achieved through psychic energy.

However, it is ineffective for camouflage that directly affects objects, such as camouflage paint or waterproof tarpaulins used for covering.

The moment that strange machine appeared, Li Wei realized that something terrible was about to happen.

He'd seen this thing before.

During the promotion ceremony.

The two strange machines sent to solve the swamp phenomenon were of this type.

Even though he knew nothing about the model of the strange puppet, Li Wei was fortunate to know how difficult the swamp phenomenon was to solve.

I also know that it's not a problem that can be solved by machines alone.

This strange machine, which was used against him, definitely has psionic attack capabilities.

Li Wei had once been curious about these strange combat machines, whether they were humanoid combat puppets or other large war machines, and he didn't understand how these behemoths moved.

But after reading the book of arcane magic and the notes left by the former administrator, he already had a guess.

The secrets that were so closely guarded by mechanics, alchemists, and dwarves were actually a technology for storing psionic energy and converting it into power.

The medium for energy should be some kind of mineral crystal.

Moreover, if such a crystal is to store energy to sustain the continuous operation of machinery, it certainly cannot be too small.

Where could it be hidden?

Before Li Wei could think it through, the combat puppet below, which had already been activated, started operating.

It looked up at Li Wei in the sky, and two long swords for combat sprang from its arms.

However, this doll did not seem to be equipped with any means of long-range attack. It simply stood in place, using its constantly rotating mechanical single eye to lock onto Li Wei, who was flying left and right in the air.

Li Wei immediately abandoned thinking about the problem and chose to run away.

After all, he only had wings and could fly, but the height he could fly was indeed limited. He was afraid that the thing below would jump up and kill him.

However, just as he was about to head towards the Bureau of Supervision and the Church of Radiance, a shirtless, burly man suddenly appeared from the side.

The newcomer was carrying a long stick, which looked like it was made from a street lamp that he had casually pulled up from the roadside.

However, the rudimentary weapons did not diminish their combat effectiveness.

With a single charge, he pierced through two assassins who had stopped in place with the long staff in his hand, then raised his leg and kicked the mechanical puppet in the knee, stopping its legs from gathering power.

Immediately afterwards, the long staff was pulled out and slashed down with great force at the strange weapon.

"Barney?"

Li Wei, who was flying in mid-air, was stunned for a moment before realizing that it was his underlings who had come to his rescue.

But how did they know he had been attacked?

After carefully observing Barney's attire, and Wag who had already begun drawing ritual arrays and performing incantations on the corner of the road, as well as the two somewhat disheveled underlings who ran to pick up guns from the ground, Levi roughly guessed the outcome.

They were also attacked, but perhaps they didn't take it as seriously as we did, so it was easily dealt with.

Furthermore, the attackers were familiar faces with prior criminal records. Otherwise, they wouldn't have immediately connected the attack to them.

Then there's only one answer.

"The Brownstone Gang? Why are they in such a hurry to kill me?"

"After the last failure, I should have already revealed my identity as a cult bishop. A normal gang shouldn't have any direct conflict with cults."

"Even if I take a murder case, I can always give it up."

"Unless... they're not just a simple gang."

With that in mind, Li Wei chose to fly down from the sky.

He has already used the lightning bolt five times, and he can use it three more times while in possession mode.

But judging from the fact that even those two assassins couldn't effectively kill it, the power of my little skill seems less than ideal. Unless I hit a vital spot, it will be difficult to deal with this combat machine.

"Aim at the chest... three seconds... vital point."

The mysterious female voice sounded the warning again, and Li Wei decided to act on his intuition once more.

He threw another grenade and yelled, "Barney, get out of the way!"

Barney, who was wrestling with the strange machine and barely managing to resist the alloy arm blades equipped on the combat doll with the lamppost in his hand, did not obey the order.

Instead, he immediately dropped his weapon, crouched down, and slid to move behind the combat dummy.

Immediately afterwards, all his muscles tensed up, and he seemed to inflate as if he were a size larger, then he tightly gripped the combat doll, preventing it from defending its chest area.

The next moment, a gentle breeze blew by, and the thick breastplate on the doll's chest was instantly corroded away, leaving it fragile and revealing a hexagonal blue gemstone shimmering with azure light inside.

The lightning bolt collided with the gem, followed by a violent explosion.
