My game, Orange Flavor, is great!

Psychic power, immortality.

"This time, it's all for you." Si Ling murmured as she lowered her hand, glanced at the monitor on the ceiling, and then turned and disappeared.

At the same time, all the camera feeds in the monitoring room turned into a jumbled mess.

Chapter Forty: The Bomber

The arcade, a place that should be filled with video game music and laughter, was reduced to ruins when Lu Zhao flew up there, along with several surrounding shops.

"Who...who did this?"

She folded her wings and staggered onto the ruins. The steel bars beneath her feet buckled, as if the entire floor might collapse at any moment.

Stepping lightly on the broken floor, Lu Zhao instructed Bai Yan to be vigilant at all times before cautiously walking along the arcade at the center of the explosion.

The intense spiritual energy fluctuations in the air made her heart race; this was the first time she had felt such a powerful aura in the month or so since she had transmigrated.

"White Flame, this is an aura that only an A-rank spirit race member can possess, right?" she whispered to herself, carefully conversing with her spiritual energy.

A tremor ran through his heart: "Barely at that level, but you're worlds apart from Master. If I were to take action, even ten more wouldn't be a match for us!"

Ah this...

I've already said she's not the same Lu Zhao as before!

However, hearing what it said, her tense mood finally relaxed a bit, and her steps became much larger. Before long, she arrived at what should have been the entrance to the arcade.

However, the place is now just ruins, and one corner of the building is about to collapse.

Stepping onto the broken bricks, Lu Zhao looked around but found no sign of any intruders.

Did someone plant a bomb here beforehand and then detonate it on time?

While this is possible, the psionic fluctuations in the air would not be so obvious.

The scorching heat in the air hadn't dissipated yet. Lu Zhao carefully turned around the entrance, but before he could even step inside, he heard an extremely shrill female voice coming from within—

"Kid, are you also a member of the Spirit Clan?"

"Ha, since you're not dead, let's take you back for some fun."

Hearing the sound, she couldn't help but frown. She secretly threw out a spark, which drifted inwards with the airflow for a while before finally landing near a corner deep inside an arcade.

Spark Vision, activated!

Lu Zhao's eyes widened suddenly, his originally dark pupils now tinged with a thin layer of red.

This is a new skill I recently unlocked; it allows me to use fire to monitor targets.

Soon, the images transmitted by the fire came into her view—

Amidst a pile of bricks and rubble, a beautiful woman dressed in a heavy leather coat, wearing only a black bra and shorts underneath, sat atop a small hill of rubble.

At her feet, a girl dressed as a student was desperately protecting another girl. They were both seriously injured, and when the girl was lifted up by the woman's neck, blood was still seeping from her right hand.

The severity of the wound was evident from the flesh and blood that rolled outwards from the other person's arm.

Lu Zhao clenched his fists angrily and instructed Bai Yan, "I'll lure the enemy away. You find the right opportunity and rescue them."

“…Master,” Bai Yan paused for a moment, “have we reversed our roles?”

Don't complain at times like this!

She took a deep breath. "Can you get out of that woman unscathed?"

This was the first time she had ever seen such a formidable person. From the moment she first saw him, she had a gut feeling that he was not someone to be trifled with. No matter how intelligent Bai Yan was, he was still just a psychic. She was afraid...

Bai Yan gave her no time to worry. It leaped out of her heart, transformed into a giant white leopard, nodded back at her, and rushed inside.

Lu Zhao gritted his teeth, forcefully slapped his slightly weak calves, and quickly followed.

Through the fire's perspective, the scantily clad woman had already sensed the significantly increased psionic fluctuations in the air. She flung the girl she was holding aside and rushed towards the direction they had come from.

"Roar!"

The white leopard roared and spat out a ball of fire, which the woman easily dodged. The two then became entangled in a fierce struggle.

Lu Zhao swallowed nervously, turned around the corner from another broken entrance, and saw that this was a blind spot in the line of sight of the battle on the other side, so he hurriedly went forward and rescued the girl who was half buried between the bricks and tiles and covered in blood.

"He's not breathing anymore...?"

Feeling the coldness of the other person's body, she stubbornly pressed her hand against the other person's neck for a while before reluctantly letting go.

We're still too late.

However, she had no time to wallow in self-pity. She quickly put down the girl and turned to walk towards the female student who had almost been taken away earlier.

"Hey, are you alright?"

He carefully turned the person over, and the moment he saw the other person's face, Lu Zhao's pupils shrank.

It is Wenruo.

It was Wenruo!

Her heart pounded wildly. Without thinking too much, she quickly checked him and found that although he was also covered in blood, he was still breathing despite the heavy blow, thanks to the constitution of the Spirit Race.

We need to get him to the hospital right away.

Fearing that her actions might accidentally cause further injury, she could only take off her clothes and wrap them around the other person before rushing out alone.

"White Flame!"

With a shout, the white leopard, which had been wrestling with the woman on the ground, instantly transformed into a ball of flame and returned to her body.

Lu Zhao took a deep breath, looked at the woman who was slowly standing up and staring fiercely at him, and asked in a stern voice, "You are the one who started this explosion? Why did you do it?"

With several bloody scratches all over her body, and even her stylish leather jacket torn in several places, the woman was naturally in a bad mood. However, even so, she still looked the woman who had come to bother her up and down, a hint of fear showing on her fierce face.

"Are you Lu Zhao?"

It was clearly a question, but he spoke with absolute certainty, as if he already knew her.

Lu Zhao frowned. "You know me?"

Suddenly, the woman burst into laughter and pressed something with her hand. Then, another loud explosion rang out, and the entire building suddenly tilted.

"Oops!"

Lu Zhao's heart skipped a beat. He struggled to maintain his balance, his mind preoccupied with Wen Ruo, whom he had just hidden inside. However, he hesitated to move immediately, mindful of the woman before him.

The woman stood on the rubble as if walking on flat ground, completely unaffected by the explosion. She stared at Lu Zhao with great interest, licking her lips with her bright red tongue, her eyes revealing unparalleled madness.

"Finally... I can fight you, Lu Zhao!"

Chapter 41 Rescue

"Finally, I can fight you, Lu Zhao!"

Lu Zhao was a little confused when the other person called her by name. She didn't know if the other person knew her, but in order to avoid being exposed, she didn't ask and just stood there quietly watching the other person.

Seeing that she was unmoved by her words, the woman's eyes darkened, and she leaned forward slightly, appearing in front of her almost instantly.

Lu Zhao was startled. His body, which had been training for many days, reacted immediately. He threw a punch wrapped in white flames with the force of breaking through the air, but the woman quickly dodged it.

right!

Sensing the change in the air, she kicked out, striking the woman squarely in the chest, causing her to spit out a mouthful of blood and retreat rapidly.

This...this is her power?

Lu Zhao froze on the spot, watching in shock as he saw the other person being pushed back to the point where the building was about to collapse. He was about to rush forward to pull the person up when, unexpectedly, the other person chuckled, using the force of his push to retreat rapidly, and then leaped away—

"Hey!"

She rushed forward to try and rescue the person, but was blocked by a beam that had suddenly fallen.

That person just died like that?

As she hesitated, more and more of the ground beneath her feet collapsed due to the explosion, and large sections of peeling walls and steel bars fell down, raising a cloud of dust.

Another huge explosion rang out, and under the violent tremor, the already shaky building finally gave way. The huge crack that appeared under Lu Zhao's feet collapsed and shattered like a broken watermelon rind.

Clenching her fists in frustration, she gritted her teeth, turned and ran towards Wenruo's location. She gently picked him up, spread her wings, and just as the building was about to collapse, she quickly spread her wings and nimbly passed through the falling bricks and tiles, finally managing to escape to safety.

The winter wind blew away the cold sweat on Lu Zhao's forehead. When she looked down, she realized that Wen Ruo's face was completely bloodless and her body temperature was clearly starting to drop.

Ignoring everything else, she landed directly in the crowd that had just been evacuated from the mall, disregarding the fearful or surprised looks from those around her, and hurriedly got the person to the nearest ambulance: "Nurse! Doctor! Please save her!"

Before long, a doctor rushed forward, examined her briefly, and said urgently, "Quickly get her into the ambulance. The patient's condition is very bad and she needs emergency treatment!"

After quickly getting the person into the ambulance, Lu Zhao hesitated for a moment, glancing at the still terrified crowd behind him, then at the unconscious Wen Ruo in the ambulance. He then reached out and pulled out the pen from the doctor's chest, writing a few numbers on Wen Ruo's clothes.

"This is my phone number. If she needs anything later, she can call this number!"

The doctor frowned in confusion: "Family member, aren't you coming up with us?"

"No, thank you," Lu Zhao jumped out of the ambulance, smiled at the people inside, "I still have things I need to do."

Wenruo has been rescued, and I have left a spark on her. If anyone tries to harm her, the spark will protect them on its own. It can be said that Wenruo's safety is guaranteed whether I am by her side or not.

She looked at the doctor earnestly and said, "Her life is in your hands now."

The doctor frowned, glanced at her, and sighed, saying, "It's my duty."

With her clearing the way, the ambulance left smoothly. Lu Zhao wiped the sweat from his forehead, which had already cooled down, and looked up at the shopping mall, which had been reduced to a pile of ruins. His heart tightened again.

That woman must have planted bombs all over the mall. The first few bombs went off on the third floor, but the last one was caused by bombs on several floors exploding simultaneously, which is why it had such a devastating effect.

Unfortunately……

She thought of the girl she hadn't had a chance to take out, and couldn't help but bite her lower lip hard.

But she couldn't afford to wallow in melancholy right now. She quickly pushed through the crowd and found the police officers who had come to her aid. She immediately identified herself and said, "Please evacuate the crowd first. This explosion was deliberate. I'm worried there might be other explosives inside, so everyone, including you, must stay away from the mall!"

Putting yourself in that woman's shoes, if your purpose was to create a disaster and cause panic, then blowing up a few more bombs while the police were conducting a search and rescue operation would likely have been even more likely to cause public panic.

After finally getting the police to pull out the cordon, she remembered the woman who had been with her and wanted to call her, only to find that she hadn't saved the woman's number.

Left with no other choice, she could only call Xia Zhifei to let him know she was safe.

The young lady had just returned home when she heard that she was in such a dangerous place, and without thinking, she took a taxi and rushed over.

Well, at least we have one more helper.
