At the same time, inside the sewage pipe on the left.

Li Zhengfeng and Chen Mo quickly moved forward along the pipe wall, their tactical boots making as little noise as possible in the shallow water.

After turning a blind spot, about ten meters ahead, two tall foreign men were installing something with their backs to them.

"Don't move!"

Li Zhengfeng gave a low shout, and the intense beam of his tactical flashlight instantly locked onto the two men.

The two Vatican officials reacted swiftly, turning around abruptly with a fierce glint in their eyes.

"Take care of them, and leave no trace!" the foreign man in the lead shouted sternly in broken English.

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly swung his arms outward!

"call--!"

The already cold air inside the pipe suddenly surged violently, forcibly compressed into dozens of sharp, bluish-gray wind blades.

The wind blades spun at high speed, tearing through the air with a sharp, piercing whistle, like a high-speed, grappling metal net cutting straight at you!

The cement on the pipe wall was even pried out with several deep grooves by the wind blades.

"Leave it to me!"

Chen Mo strode forward, his long hair flying wildly in the air as the wind rushed towards him.

He didn't draw his gun, but took a deep breath of stale air, his chest bulging, and suddenly opened his mouth!

【The Soul-Suppressing Demonic Sound】!

"Buzz—!!"

Visible, transparent sonic ripples suddenly burst forth from Chen Mo's mouth.

The high-frequency vibrating sound waves resonated wildly within the narrow pipe, creating a terrifying sonic boom.

The moment those cyan wind blades slashed towards him collided with the demonic sound, their internal energy structures were forcibly shattered, turning into a chaotic mass of air that dissipated into nothingness.

The sound waves continued their relentless march, piercing through the air and striking the minds of the two Vatican personnel!

"Ugh—!"

The two clutched their heads in agony, blood gushing from their eardrums. Their brains felt as if they had been struck by a heavy hammer, their muscles convulsing uncontrollably, and they lost their balance on the spot.

"Take them alive!"

Li Zhengfeng seized the opening, strode forward, breaking through the water, and pressed his right hand against the two men in mid-air.

Gravity Domination!

"boom!"

The gravitational field above their heads was instantly rewritten, and they fell with ten times the pressure as if a mountain had collapsed!

The two Vatican officials didn't even have time to scream before they were slammed into the mud by the overwhelming pressure. The concrete pavement beneath their feet cracked and sank into a shallow pit.

The violent gravity shattered their consciousness, their eyes rolled back, and they fainted on the spot.

Gravitational convergence.

Li Zhengfeng stepped forward, tore off the alloy cable ties from his tactical belt, and neatly locked the two men's hands behind their backs.

He glanced at the two unconscious infiltrators in the mud and snorted, "Is this all the skill you have? You dare to come to China and cause trouble?"

……

Deep inside the pipe on the right.

The sounds of gunfire were deafening.

Firelight flickered in the darkness as three Vatican personnel, armed with submachine guns, opened fire wildly into the passageway ahead.

Bullets rained down like rain.

Peng Tao stood like an iron tower, firmly blocking Lu Feng's path. Facing the oncoming storm of metal, he didn't even consider dodging; he simply raised his right hand calmly.

Spread your five fingers.

[A-Rank Metal Overlord] Unleashed.

Thoughts flow.

What happened next horrified the three Vatican officials.

Hundreds and thousands of high-speed brass bullets, less than half a meter in front of Peng Tao, seemed to hit an invisible wall of sighs and instantly hovered in mid-air!

The countless bullets rubbed and spun violently in the void, emitting a pungent smell of gunpowder, but they could no longer advance an inch.

"Playing with metal in front of me?"

Peng Tao's eyes were cold. He flipped his hand, which had been suspended in mid-air, and pushed it outwards sharply: "Here you go!"

Whoosh whoosh!

The hail of bullets instantly changed direction, flying back towards the three Vatican members with twice the initial velocity!

Blood and sparks erupted simultaneously.

Peng Tao deliberately avoided vital organs; the recoiled bullets precisely shredded the submachine guns in their hands, while simultaneously piercing the legs and shoulder blades of all three men.

A heart-wrenching scream echoed through the pipes as the three of them collapsed to their knees in the muddy sewage, completely unable to resist.

"Lu Feng, knock him unconscious and take him away," Peng Tao ordered, lowering his hand.

Lu Feng, standing behind him, grinned and lightly flicked the clasp of his knife at his waist.

"Clang!"

The saber was drawn with a crisp sound.

[Rank A - Weapon Domination] Unleashed.

A surge of violent blood energy and tangible killing intent instantly flowed in, and the pitch-black military knife hovered in front of Lu Feng, its blade suddenly gleaming with a dazzling crimson light.

Lu Feng stood still, without moving an inch, only slightly bending his sword finger and casually pointing forward.

"go."

Swish!

The suspended saber transformed into a streak of crimson light, tearing through the darkness.

The saber nimbly flipped in mid-air, using the back of the blade to clear a path, striking the burly man at the front precisely on the back of the neck. A dull thud resounded, and the man, without even a groan, instantly lost consciousness.

The crimson streak continued its relentless advance, weaving rapidly between the remaining two.

The end of the handle slammed down like a heavy hammer.

Click!Click!

Two brutal physical blows dislocated the jaw joints of the remaining two men, completely eliminating their chance to bite the poison and commit suicide.

Their eyes rolled back, and they both collapsed into the sewage, falling into a coma.

"Zheng—"

The blood-red light flashed back, and the military knife flew precisely back to the scabbard at Lu Feng's waist.

Peng Tao stepped forward, looked at the prisoner spitting blood all over the ground, and glared at Lu Feng with annoyance: "Couldn't you have gone a little easier? You've smashed his jaw. How are we going to interrogate him when we get back?"

"Isn't she still breathing?"

Lu Feng strolled forward, casually kicking the unconscious Vatican assassin at his feet with his toe, a cold glint in his eyes: "To treat these cross-border scum, sparing their lives is already an act of mercy from me."

……

Outside the sewage pipe.

The night wind howled, and the blinding red and blue police lights flashed intermittently, illuminating the entire wasteland as if it were daytime.

A large number of heavily armed special agents have established a blockade.

The medical team is carrying a stretcher to provide emergency treatment to the field staff who were knocked unconscious by the tremors.

Qin Zhenguo, wearing a black trench coat, stood beside the command vehicle, his face ashen.

Hearing the noise coming from the pipe opening, Qin Zhenguo immediately turned his head.

Luo Qingyan strode out of the cordon. Behind her, three burly foreign men were dragged by water ropes and thrown to the ground like dead dogs.

"None of them died; some were left alive," Luo Qingyan said in a cold voice.

Qin Zhenguo glanced at the prisoners on the ground, his gaze narrowing slightly: "Are these people really from the Holy See of Light?"

"It can't be wrong."

Luo Qingyan nodded: "When they fought underground, the extraordinary abilities they used clearly showed traces of a cult. In particular, the residual holy light energy was completely consistent with the methods of the Western Vatican. Their purpose in infiltrating the sewers was probably to find the angelic awakened one who caused today's anomaly."

Qin Zhenguo frowned, his eyes flashing with anger: "They've stretched their hands into the Dragon Kingdom's territory and even tried to snatch our high-level Awakened Ones. The Holy See has gone too far."

The voice just fell.

Footsteps could be heard coming from the sewage pipe openings on both sides.

Li Zhengfeng and Chen Mo were holding two Vatican officials hostage.

Peng Tao and Lu Feng followed closely behind, each carrying three prisoners covered in blood.

All eight Vatican infiltrators have been apprehended.

"Put them in the car and take them back to the station!" Qin Zhenguo gave the order decisively.

Special agents quickly stepped forward, put the eight seriously injured and unconscious prisoners in specially made shackles, and roughly stuffed them into the blast-proof armored vehicle.

The engine roared.

The convoy sped across the gravel of the wasteland toward the headquarters of the Paranormal Bureau.

……

at the same time.

Yanjing Third Ring Road, Anping Private Hospital.

This high-end hospital, wholly owned by the Qin Group, remains brightly lit, quiet, and private even late at night.

Top floor VIP area.

Zhou Tian held his younger sister Zhou Zixin's hand and sat down at the attending physician's desk.

Qin Xinran and Wen Xiaoxiao stood to one side.

On the large display screen, Zhou Zixin's cardiac ultrasound and various blood indicators are being shown.

"It's truly a medical miracle."

The attending physician, dressed in a white coat, adjusted his glasses, looked at the test report in his hand, and said with barely concealed shock, "Ms. Zhou's congenital heart disease has been completely cured. Her ventricular structure is perfect, and her myocardial blood supply is strong. Not only are there no aftereffects, but her heart is even healthier than a normal person's!"

Upon hearing these words, Zhou Tian froze on the spot.

He subconsciously looked down.

"Brother, it's really healed." Zhou Zixin clutched the front of her shirt, looked up at him, her big eyes brimming with tears.

Zhou Tian opened his mouth, but his throat felt like it was blocked by something, and he couldn't utter a single syllable.

He suddenly squatted down and pulled his sister into his arms.

The fear and despair that had haunted him for more than a decade vanished in that instant.

This boy, who fought for survival on the streets and was willing to risk his life, now buried his head in his sister's thin shoulder, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.

"It's good that you're alright...it's good that you're alright." His voice was hoarse, filled with relief at surviving the ordeal.

Seeing the brother and sister crying in each other's arms, Wen Xiaoxiao raised her chin and gave a haughty snort: "I knew it! With me personally taking care of it, how could there be an illness that can't be cured?"

Qin Xinran stepped forward, patted Zhou Tian on the shoulder, and comforted him gently, "Alright, the past is over. From now on, in Dawn, with the leader here, no one can bully you and your brother. This is your home."

"Sister Qin, Miss, thank you. I, Zhou Tian, ​​will never forget this kindness." Zhou Tian wiped away his tears, his eyes revealing an unprecedented determination and fervor.

"Let's go, it's getting late, we should head back to headquarters." Qin Xinran smiled and turned around.

The four people left the treatment area and took a private elevator directly to the first floor.

Pushing open the glass doors of the hospital, a cool night breeze blew in.

Ahead was an open-air parking lot.

The streetlights were dim, and the shadows of the trees swayed gently.

Qin Xinran had only taken a few steps when she suddenly stopped.

As an A-level [Shadow Overlord], Qin Xinran has an extremely keen sense of the shadows around her.

She clearly sensed a terrifying energy fluctuation lurking in the darkness ahead.

"Who is it? Show yourself!"

Qin Xinran's eyes turned cold instantly, and she shouted sharply.

Zhou Tian reacted quickly, taking a step forward to shield Zhou Zixin tightly behind him.

With a slight movement of the fingertips, a dazzling golden holy light quietly gathered in the palm of the hand.

Wen Xiaoxiao also quickly took a half step back, warily watching her surroundings.

"Tap. Tap. Tap."

The steady sound of leather shoes tapping on the ground echoed in the empty parking lot.

The shadows ahead were forcibly torn apart.

Three foreign men wearing long, flowing robes walked out of the darkness side by side and blocked the four people's path.

The person in the center has brilliant blond hair, a deep-set face, and wears the special robes of a cardinal.

He held an antique golden compass in his left hand.

The compass needle was emitting a dazzling platinum light, firmly locking onto the direction of the heavens.

It was John.

Beside him stood two purple-robed bishops with equally terrifying auras.

On the left, Jonard is as tall and imposing as an iron tower, his muscles bulging as his robes stretch.

He hails from the Holy Templar Knights and is a melee monster who has awakened the A-rank [Sanctuary Judgment].

Arthur on the right was thin and pale as paper. His sinister eyes gleamed with a bloodthirsty red light.

He comes from the infamous "Inquisition," and has awakened the A-level [Blood Nightmare Domination]. He is ruthless and vicious, specializing in torture and assassination.

"The lost sheep has finally been found."

John ignored Qin Xinran and the others' vigilance, his icy blue eyes staring straight at Zhou Tian, ​​his tone revealing condescending arrogance and fanatical religious piety.

"Bathed in the Lord's glory, a child of light imbued with holy power. Your birth is a gift from the Lord and a glory to the Holy See."

John made the sign of the cross, his voice echoing through the night: "This pagan land is unworthy of you. Come with me back to the Papacy, for there lies your true home. You will become the ultimate weapon to judge all the evil in the world."

Hearing these mystical words, Qin Xinran frowned.

She quickly spread her mental energy, trying to probe the other party's background.

The result, however, made her heart sink suddenly.

The energy fluctuations of the three people in front of them were like three insurmountable mountains.

The two purple-robed bishops on the left and right possessed energy like volcanoes about to erupt, no less than his own, clearly both being A-level awakened beings.

S-rank!

This is actually an S-rank Awakened!

Two A-level students and one S-level student.

Qin Xinran knew very well that facing this level of combat power, it was impossible for her and Zhou Tian to defeat them on their own.

They could certainly escape from here using the teleportation stone.

But... what about Zhou Zixin?

She has not yet joined Dawn, so even if she has a teleportation stone, she cannot use it.

We can't just leave her alone with these madmen from the Vatican!

"Xiaoxiao, immediately call for the leader through the chat group!" Qin Xinran said in a low voice, speaking very quickly.

Right now, she has no choice but to turn to Su Yu for help.

Wen Xiaoxiao nodded emphatically, without uttering a single unnecessary word.

With a thought, she took out a metal card that emitted a faint silver glow from her storage ring.

This is the group name card that Su Yu sent out.

By injecting mental energy into it, one can transcend physical distance and access the consciousness chat group.

However, John's eyes were incredibly sharp.

The moment Wen Xiaoxiao took out the card, the fanaticism in his eyes turned into a cold killing intent.

"Foolish heresy. Any resistance is futile before the will of the Lord."

John spoke coldly: "Arthur, clear the way."

"Yes, sir John."

Arthur on the right let out a chilling laugh.

"boom!"

His thin body instantly exploded into a thick cloud of bloody mist, and the air was immediately filled with a nauseating stench of decay and blood.

Arthur transformed into a crimson blur, moving at incredible speed as he hurtled towards Wen Xiaoxiao behind him!
