Xinian reached out and touched Lorna's forehead, feeling a normal, cool sensation; the effect could only be described as miraculous.

Guan Luo said with his mind, "She's alright now. However, after having so much energy drained, her body is still very weak and she needs to rest for a day or two."

“Guan Luo.” hope Nian looked at the starfish in the jar and said from the bottom of her heart, “I know why Batman can’t bear to part with you.”

"You are so useful!"

Guan Luo: "..."

Chapter 124, Night Raid, the Power of a Demigod

Around 11 p.m.

The demigod Xinian sat motionless on the edge of the bed, acting as a mattress doll, while the doll-like girl Lorna lay asleep in his arms, emitting soft and even breathing sounds.

The Feral Beast cub, Little Emperor, was also fast asleep in bed, exhausted. This creature was both a glutton and a sleepyhead, something Xinian had grown accustomed to.

On the table, the colorful starfish in the glass jar are bathed in the moonlight streaming in through the window, reminiscing about the old days when they wandered the starry sky.

Despite the occasional commotion outside the car wash, everything inside the small room was peaceful and serene.

"Someone else is coming." At this moment, Guanluo opened his jewel-like eyes and sent a mental alert to Xinian.

hope Nian opened his eyes, his gaze falling on the door, and his brows furrowed slightly.

This time, he didn't notice the footsteps coming from the corridor outside.

Clearly, the other party deliberately slowed their pace.

The visitor is not good.

Guan Luo continued sending out mental messages: "Male, around thirty-five years old, bald, tall... Strange, his energy and spirit are very unstable..."

At the same time, when the other party was about three meters away from the door of the room, Xinian also heard a slight sound of footsteps.

The light seeping in through the cracks of the tightly closed and locked door was partially blocked.

laugh! !

Under hope Nian's watchful gaze, a wisp of hot smoke first rose from the center of the wooden door, then the wood glowed red-hot from the outside in. The next moment, the door burst into flames from the middle!

His eyes were filled with the flames before him and the rage in his heart, but the demigod Xinian became even calmer and asked emotionlessly, "Guanluo, what kind of weapon is the other party carrying? A flamethrower?"

"No, he wasn't carrying any weapons!"

As Guan Luo's somewhat doubtful thoughts arose, the middle of the room's doorway was the first to be burned through by the intense heat and flames. A man, seemingly unafraid of the heat and flames, smashed through countless burning wood chips and rushed into the room!

hope Nian looked up and saw that the man had a bald head, just as Guan Luo had described.

just.

The bald man's eyes burned with a fiery red light, especially his hands. His bare palms and arms were almost transparent, and the blood beneath flowed through his veins like molten lava. He carried an intense heat that ordinary people could not withstand, and he rushed into Lorna's room with a gust of hot air!

The bald man's face was ferocious and terrifying. When he forced his way through the wooden door and entered the room, he saw Xinian holding Lorna by the bed. A look of confusion flashed in his eyes, but in the next second he pounced on the two of them without hesitation!

Perhaps because she was in Xinian's arms, Polaris Lorna was completely unprepared at this moment.

As they rushed forward...

The bald man's arms and hands, as well as his chest and lower abdomen, were radiating intense heat, to the point that his short-sleeved shirt caught fire!

He looks like half a fireman!

The bald man was also faster than the average person; at such close range, an attack from the ground would leave most people unable to react in time.

pity.

The current Xinian is not an ordinary person, but rather—a demigod!

With Lorna in her arms, Xinian quickly stood up and, with lightning speed, kicked out with her right foot, sending the bald man flying!

Bang! !

The force of the kick was so great that it sent the bald man flying backward. He crashed through the burning wooden door wreckage, smashed through the railing of the outer corridor, and fell from the third floor onto a jeep parked below.

The jeep's roof caved in, and all the windows shattered, the loud noise causing alarms to go off in other parked vehicles nearby!

"What happened?"

"Enemy attack?!"

This kick woke up everyone in the car wash, whether they were awake or asleep!

"My car!!"

One of the tattooed youths, who had just woken up, rushed in through the main gate. Seeing the jeep, which was more than half wrecked and billowing smoke, he immediately grabbed his head and let out a wail.

However, his wailing soon stopped abruptly.

The tattooed youth stared in astonishment as a bald man, his body completely red and emitting scorching hot smoke, crawled out from the dented roof of the jeep, looking like a demon from hell!

"What the hell is that?" People inside and outside the car wash who witnessed this scene all gasped in shock.

On the third floor, in one room.

"What... happened?" Lorna was also woken up and forgot to change her tone, asking softly.

"It's alright, I'll handle it and be right back!" Xinian said, gently placing Lorna on the bed.

He instructed, "Guanluo, Xiaohuang, you two protect her! Don't let anyone into this room except for me!"

"Received." The jar on the table emitted a mental message.

Little Emperor then jumped down next to Lorna's body, like a little guardian, his eyes emitting a faint blue light!

The demigod Xinian looked down at his right foot. The canvas shoes he was wearing had mostly melted down, and the cloth upper was now ablaze.

It's so hot.

Xinian simply took off his canvas shoes and, under the astonished gaze of more than twenty pairs of eyes, walked straight out of Lorna's room and then jumped down from the third-floor corridor.

tread!!

Plunging straight down from a height of ten meters, hope Nian didn't even have time to cushion the fall, cracking the ground where she landed. Her long silver hair flew wildly behind her as she coldly stared at the attacker standing on the car in front of her!

"You dare to lay a hand on my boss? Is this all you've got?"

The demigod hope Nian, wearing a baseball cap and a mask, stared emotionlessly at the bald man whose temperature was steadily rising, his only exposed eyes gleaming.

As you can see, after the bald man was kicked, his chest was clearly dented inward by a footprint. At this moment, the dented wound is healing at a speed visible to the naked eye!

The bald man roared angrily, jumped off the car, and charged at the silver-haired boy once again!

Seeing his opponent swing his fist in the sweltering heat, Xinian stood still and simply swung his right fist as well.

When Xinian's seemingly ordinary punch collided with the bald man's scorching fist—

The bald man's eyes widened in disbelief as his right arm exploded inch by inch, countless pieces of bright red, burning flesh and bone splattering like lava onto the half-wrecked jeep!

hope Nian shook his head.

While a demigod's physique might seem powerless against Kryptonians or Doomsday, it doesn't mean that a demigod's physique can rival even the most worthless creatures!

hope Nian reached out and waved his hand forward, and a golden lasso immediately bound the bald man with the missing arm, rendering him unable to move!

“Tell me, what is your purpose?” hope Nian asked.

The full power of the Mantra Lasso has begun to manifest!

The bald man blurted out, "Even if it means mutual destruction, we must kill the target—Lorna."

"What? They're after our boss?"

Hearing the exclamations of some people around him, Xinian knew that the man in front of him was an outsider.

Were they sent by other forces?

hope Nian continued, "Who is your boss?"

“Killian…”

The bald man had just uttered a name when, not only his burning arms and chest, but also his face contorted in agony, his skin rapidly becoming translucent, and his internal temperature continued to soar, causing his body to swell slightly!

As if sensing something, the demigod Xinian immediately raised the Mantra Lasso and tossed the bound bald man high into the air!

The moment his body slammed into the car wash roof, the bald man's red-hot body exploded like a bomb. His body instantly turned to ash and vanished, the intense heat of the explosion melting and penetrating the top-floor metal roof!

Chapter 125, A Challenge to Iron Man

Zizi!

The gap in the ceiling, melted by the intense heat released from the human explosion, glowed red. The demigod Xinian, bathed in the bright moonlight streaming in through the gap, looked like a god!

Who are you?!

"Be careful, he possesses extraordinary abilities..."

Accompanied by tense words and hurried footsteps, more than a dozen strong young men rushed out from the upper floor of the car wash and outside the main entrance. They were armed with firearms or cold weapons such as knives and iron bars, and surrounded Xinian, who was standing in the middle of the car wash!

Of course, even when surrounded, they still kept a distance of about ten meters with trepidation.

among them.

A young man with green-dyed hair, resembling a follower of Lorna, stepped forward angrily, holding a rifle, and demanded, "Why did you come out of Boss Lorna's room?"

hope Nian calmly glanced at them, his silver eyes devoid of any emotion. Under the guidance of his divinity, he was able to handle things in the most calm and simple way.

"Try shooting," hope Nian suddenly said to the green-haired youth who was the most agitated.

"Do you think I wouldn't dare to shoot?" The green-haired youth trembled with rage and impulsively released the safety on his rifle.

"Edek, calm down!"

Seeing the silver-haired boy's fearless attitude, some people tried to dissuade him.

"Hurry up, if you don't shoot now, you'll miss your chance." hope Nian urged as he walked towards the young man with the gun.

"court death!"

Seeing his accomplices take a step back, the green-haired youth named "Edek" could no longer hold back. He pointed his gun at Xinian, who was walking towards him, and pulled the trigger!

boom!

Gunshots rang out!
