But now it’s different. The land beneath their feet is the emptiness in Tallulah’s heart. This is Tallulah’s scar.

"This isn't just revenge for me; it's also a kind of liberation, a liberation that allows me to completely shake off the emptiness and truly survive."

Staring into Yelena's eyes, Tallulah said with a resolute expression: "If I continue to fight, I may fail and suffer, but I will never regret it. This is my answer."

"Is the Dragon Gate a shackle that you have to cut off?"

Yelena smiled in relief, stood up, and left the tent. "Then go for it. You and Alina helped us a lot in the snowfields. Now it's our turn to help you. Don't forget, the Reunion Movement is never afraid of sacrifice. We will forge our future with blood."

Talulah nodded slightly and watched Frost Star leave until she could no longer sense the chill. Then she turned her gaze to the Sarkaz girl who had been sitting in the corner.

"And you, W. What do you want from me?"

W smiled and, in a familiar manner, pulled out a can of food from his pocket and threw it into the fire. "I wanted to ask you some questions, but seeing that you're still as crazy as ever, I suddenly don't want to ask anymore."

"Crazy? You think I'm crazy?" Tallulah raised an eyebrow and casually pulled back the curtain. Alina, who had been silent, stood up, took out two cans of food and a small pot, and placed them on the bonfire.

Although they live in the warm Longmen, they still prefer the Ursus-style bonfire, which can be extinguished at will, and the most important thing is that they can see the flames rising.

"Aren't you crazy enough?"

W curled his lips and gave an exaggerated smile. "I remember when I first met you, you were such a saint, right? Cowardly, foolish, even laughably naive. But now? In less than half a year, you've turned into a ruthless character who's willing to sacrifice anything to achieve his goals.

The same thing happened with the village girl next to you. She was talking quietly at first, but after a serious illness, she suddenly seemed to have figured something out and started giving inexplicable orders and analyzing things. Yet everyone else acted as if it was normal. Am I crazy? Or is this world crazy?

"Maybe both are possible?"

Alina, who had been silent the whole time, stood up and sat next to W, fiddling with the pot expertly. "Everyone grows up. Tallulah has seen her own limitations and given up her ridiculous ideals. I'm the same. As long as Tallulah wants to do something, I will help her accomplish it no matter what. What about you, W? Do you have your own ideals? Ideals like Mr. Hedley's?"

"Ideal?" W scoffed, his eyes tinged with danger. "I've never had an ideal. If I had to say one, it'd be to blow up everyone I dislike. What do you think? Isn't that a cool ideal?"

"No one is born crazy." Alina's eyes remained calm. "Only after experiencing loss can you understand how hard beauty is to come by. It's the same for you, right? W, what have you lost? What do you want to regain? Only you know."

"Don't speculate about me with that disgusting look!"

As if sensing some extremely dangerous signal, the already nervous W instantly exploded. She didn't even care about the campfire in front of her as she scrambled to the door of the tent, unknowingly pulling out a knife and a grenade.

But Tallulah and Alina remained indifferent. They still sat in their seats, stirring the boiling water intermittently.

Seeing this, W, feeling bored, couldn't help but spit, lifted the curtain and left the tent directly, without even paying attention to the cans in the fire.

Only after W completely left did Tallulah calmly ask, "Who is she? Is she a spy?"

Alina smiled and shook her head: "No, she's just a fool who wants revenge on me but can't find me anywhere in the world."

Wine Pool and Meat Forest: 106 Dragon and Dragon and Dragon

BOOM————

Explosions were the only rhythm of Lungmen's day. When the Reunion Movement came out in full force, the Imperial Guard realized how foolish their confidence had been.

More than 120 people.

This is the number of police officers left in the Imperial Guard Bureau after their hard work so far. Adding the support from Rhodes Island, security companies, and hired bodyguards, this number barely reaches the end of three hundred.

And what about their opponents?

Sea of people.

Even though the infected at the front were half-naked and armed only with a ridiculous iron rod, when their numbers exceeded ten times theirs, any disparity in armaments would be eliminated in an instant.

At this moment, everyone had the same thought in their minds—Longmen was finished.

"Warriors!"

Just when everyone was hesitating and fearful, one person stood up firmly, holding high the long sword in her hand, pointing it at the endless sea of people in the distance.

"Today only, I allow you to escape. But before you flee, don't forget what's behind you: your friends, your loved ones, and the city you depend on for survival. You all remember the tragedy of Chernobyl vividly, and I will never give my hometown away to others. If anyone dies on this cordon today, I will definitely be the first one!"

The trembling hands stopped.

The officer who usually laughed and scolded was extremely dazzling at this moment. The police officers looked around at their colleagues and found that they all had the same expression on their faces - ready to die.

Before they could continue thinking, the shouts and screams were so close that everyone subconsciously drew their weapons at their waists and instinctively faced the countless people.

"Chi Xiao, if you want to survive, please lend me a hand!"

The girl standing in the front chopped down several people with a knife in her left hand. The sword skills she had trained in the past to subdue thugs were of no use here.

The only way for them to survive is to fight.

"Chi Xiao, draw your sword!!!"

A gentle dragon cry emanated from the blade, and the scarlet long sword drove a stream of air around it. In the instant of killing intent, the previously difficult-to-draw divine sword was swung like flowing water, and anything that dared to approach the girl was instantly split in two.

The dragon-slaying sword is unsheathed!

But it wasn't enough, far from enough. Even if they wielded divine weapons, even if the police officers behind them were united, it was still a pipe dream for them to defeat ten enemies alone. The Imperial Guard lacked sorcerers, and the snipers supporting Rhodes Island couldn't even connect their arrows. If the fighting continued, even the girl wielding a divine weapon would be overwhelmed by the crowd.

unless......

"Wei! Yan! Me!"

The roar of a dragon resounded through the heavens. Under Chi Xiao's blessing, the girl's every word and action imbued her with an inexplicable power. At her call, shadow guards in black straw raincoats emerged from the rooftops, staring expressionlessly at the sea of people below.

One, two, three, five, ten...

At Chen Huijie's call, more than twenty black-cloaked shadow guards appeared above the battlefield. They were Longmen's last trump card.

They will use their actions to prove that numbers are meaningless in the face of an absolute gap in strength.

Twenty black-capped shadow guards vanished into the crowd before everyone's eyes, charging into the seemingly tight crowd. The next second, blood rained down like raindrops, and wherever each shadow guard passed, Reunion soldiers fell like straw.

This was no longer a fight; it was a massacre, like a farmer gathering wheat during the harvest season. One of the shadow guards even jumped over Chen Huijie in his spare time, bringing Wei Yanwu's orders.

"Superintendent Chen, Lord Wei wants you to meet him at the top of the Guard Bureau."

"See him? Now?" Chen Huijie frowned, forcing himself to swing his sword again to cut through several people. "Doesn't he know what time it is? He asked me to see him?"

The shadow guard wasn't surprised and simply added calmly, "Duke Wei said that Tallulah was there too. If you were a little later, you might never see her again."

"What did you say!" As expected, the moment the shadow guard's voice came out, Chen Huijie seemed to have pressed the pause button and glared at the other party angrily.

The shadow guard remained expressionless as he calmly repeated, "Just as we were about to set out, a small group came from the side of the battlefield, heading straight for Duke Wei. Their leader was none other than Tallulah. Duke Wei said that command of the battlefield would be temporarily handed over to Miss Shi Huaiya. If you depart now, you can see her one last time."

"This!" Chen Huijie leaned on her sword with both hands, her face full of confusion. Just a moment ago, she had made up her mind to fight to the death here, but then news of Tallulah suddenly appeared at the same time...

Just as Chen Huijie was hesitating, a strong arm suddenly embraced the girl: "Old Chen, go ahead. We are enough here."

It was Xingxiong. With the help of Shadow Guard, the police officers were finally able to take a short break. Xingxiong also noticed Chen Huijie's hesitation at the first moment.

"Maybe by the time you come back, we'll have already cleaned up this place." A frivolous voice came from behind, and Shi Huaiya returned to the team, carrying the blood-stained chain hammer. Although she often said that she hated fighting and hated blood, at this moment, she could not care less.

"......" Chen Huijie looked deeply at his companions and tried his best to put Chixiao back into the sheath.

"Then I'll leave this place to you. Don't die!"

"Heh." Shi Huaiya sneered, as if mocking Chen Huijie's unnecessary worries. "Guys, roll up your sleeves and show Old Chen who has the final say in the Guard Bureau! Anyone who survives today will have their year-end bonus tripled! If anyone unfortunately dies in battle, the pension will be quintupled! Miss Qian Ben will pay for it out of her own pocket!"

"Oh!!!" x N

In just a moment, the somewhat sluggish atmosphere suddenly became lively. Seeing this, Chen Huijie rushed towards the tower behind him without looking back.

At the same time, on the rooftop of the abandoned Guards Bureau, the two people they had been thinking about day and night finally met.

Wei Yanwu was alone, protected only by his sword. The same was true for Tallulah; aside from the frail-looking Alina, she had no followers.

Whether it was the Blackcoat Shadow Guards or the elite warriors of the Reunion Movement, they were all tacitly dispatched to the lower levels to fight. There were some topics that only the three of them could hear.

"Long time no see, Tallulah." A match struck, and a wisp of smoke rose from the pipe. Looking at Tallulah's delicate face, Wei Yanwu felt a surge of emotion. "She looks just like her, like they were cut from the same mold."

"But you forced her to death." Tallulah snorted coldly, her eyes devoid of emotion. "You probably didn't expect me to come back, did you? But retribution will come one day. Even if it's not me, it will be someone else. Like Xiao Chen, like... Yan Guo."

Wine and Meat: 107 Unexpected Crush

"Do you want to go back to Longmen? There's still time." Long green smoke exhaled from Wei Yanwu's mouth, obscuring his vision.

"Disband the Reunification Movement, abandon those refugees, and become the Princess of Longmen again. I am old, and Xiao Chen is immature. In a few years, this city will be yours without any effort."

"Are you kidding me at this moment?"

Tallulah's only response to Wei Yanwu's admonition was to raise her sword high in the air: "Do you think you can win? Or do you think I'm as naive as Xiao Chen?"

"You don't understand. Longmen is not like Qiecheng. There's no way it will fall into the hands of the Reunion Movement. Even if you kill me, Xiao Chen, and all the resistance, you won't be able to open it even a single step."

"is it?"

Facing Wei Yanwu's rare outpouring of sincerity, Tallulah lowered her sword, "But for me, whether or not we can capture Longmen isn't important. What's important is that I don't want to see your face again!"

At the moment when Wei Yanwu relaxed his vigilance, the ground beneath Tallulah's feet suddenly collapsed, and the snow-white sword pierced through the Lord of Longmen who was close at hand in an instant, but Wei Yanwu was unable to even pull out the sword.

"Lord Wei, be careful!"

Seeing that Wei Yanwu was successfully ambushed by Tallulah, several shadow guards flashed out from the shadows. Although he said that he wanted to seek Tallulah's forgiveness, the cunning and vigilant Wei Yanwu still equipped himself with several agile bodyguards.

He was a top-notch martial arts master himself, and he thought that with a few secret guards, he would be completely safe. But he didn't expect Tallulah's sword to be so fast, so fast that no one could see it clearly!

"Ahem, in just over a decade, I didn't expect your progress to be so astonishing. Xiao Chen, who is more talented than you, is still lingering at the gate of Chixiao, but you have already surpassed me."

Even though he was pierced by the sword, Wei Yanwu still tried to stall for time. Although he hadn't reacted to Tallulah's thrust just now, he had now concentrated all his internal energy within himself. It wouldn't be as easy for Tallulah to kill him as she had imagined.

"Hmph, go to hell and express your gratitude to Kosciuszko! Go thank him for teaching me so well!" Noticing the sword lodged in Wei Yanwu's body, Tallulah waved her hand, summoning a ball of pitch-black flames. Even from a distance, Wei Yanwu could still feel the terrifying heat of the flames.

Even if he is contaminated by it, he will surely die!

At this critical moment, a Shadow Guard rushed out, charging at Tallulah with reckless abandon. Tallulah frowned, wielding the flames in her hand. But the Shadow Guard didn't dodge, taking the heavy blow head-on.

The next second, a shrill scream emanated from the Shadow Guard, then abruptly stopped. Even the specially trained assassins couldn't withstand Draco's vengeance.

But the Shadow Guard had achieved his goal. Wei Yanwu didn't miss the momentary delay and retreated while Tallulah was distracted. The surrounding Shadow Guards quickly changed their paths, ready to defend their lord.

"Alina!"

Realizing what had just happened, Tallulah shouted out her companion's name without hesitation. The frail girl beside her smiled faintly and vanished in an instant.

The next moment, a shadow guard who had just arrived beside Wei Yanwu suddenly convulsed and fell to the ground without any warning. At the same time, Alina appeared beside Wei Yanwu.

Black Snake is not the only one who has made progress. After such a long period of training, Victoria's mental strength has long been different from before. With the help of dimensional transcendence, his mental strength that can be used to control his body is poured into the shadow guard's mind, and the other's consciousness is almost instantly shattered.

"I'll deal with the Shadow Guards, you deal with Wei Yanwu!"

Taking advantage of the space created by Alina, Tallulah raised her sword again and rushed forward. The two of them crossed each other slightly in the air, and Alina disappeared from sight again.

"Is it invisible?"

Seeing this, the shadow guards immediately gathered together. Wei Yanwu hadn't taken action in a long time, and now he was injured from the sneak attack. They had limited time and had to quickly deal with the seemingly fragile girl.

"It doesn't look like that. There are no wounds on Lao Ba's body. It must be some kind of weird magic."

A shadow guard turned over the body of his companion who had died suddenly. The way he died, bleeding from all seven orifices, looked quite strange.

"Maintain formation and advance towards Duke Wei. If she dares to attack again, she will be exposed!"

As the leading shadow guard finished his words, an indescribable sense of distortion erupted from his body. He opened his mouth, wanting to warn his subordinates, but his body was no longer under his control. The sky twisted in the drifting clouds, and the ground beneath his feet lost its edge, blending with the surrounding scenery into a chaotic palette of colors...

Plop————

The second shadow guard was also wiped out by the dimensional transcendence. Alina appeared from the void again and calmly wiped away the blood from her nose.

The Shadow Guard's spiritual power was not too strong, but the continuous dimensional transcendence still brought a great burden to Alina. So after identifying the opponent's leader, she decided to play some different games with the opponent.

For example...

Bangdang————

The girl casually tossed a delicate bottle of wine, and the aura of a powerful being gradually emerged from her. Her brain, drowsy from the continuous spellcasting, was reawakened within a few seconds, and the strong liquor infused her with new strength.

"Drunken Fist?"

A shadow guard stepped forward tentatively, but Alina's movements were even faster than his. In just a few encounters, the shadow guard was repeatedly defeated by Alina and was almost killed on the spot.

"Be careful! There's something wrong with her!!!"

The injured shadow guard retreated violently, instinctively rubbing the damaged area. The girl's hands were quite soft, and her arms didn't have much muscle, but she was at a disadvantage in terms of power when they collided.

It's like...born with supernatural powers.

"Go together!!!"

Seeing that the situation was becoming increasingly urgent, the shadow guards stopped trying and the remaining four attacked at the same time, attacking various parts of Alina.

Alina smiled, raised her hands, and faced the crowd fearlessly.

At the moment when several shadow guards were about to reach her, Alina disappeared again.
