Kimberly suddenly realized that her previously uncontrollable body could move again.
She quickly took a few steps back, creating some distance between herself and the enemy.
But just as she was about to turn and run away, she saw her four companions suddenly stop and turn to look at the street ahead. In the darkness, something seemed to be approaching.
What is this again?
Kimberly pulled the gun from its holster; she wanted to run away, but she also wanted to know what had happened.
Curiosity is often a major reason why people fall into the abyss.
Countless painful lessons from the past have taught humanity that sometimes we shouldn't be too curious.
Fortunately, Kimberly was lucky today.
Lady Luck smiled upon her.
Suddenly, in the darkness ahead, the dim streetlights blazed brightly, and a figure in a black overcoat slowly walked towards them.
It looks slow but is actually very fast; it covers dozens of meters in the blink of an eye.
With each movement he made, the dim streetlights beside him would light up, creating a visually stunning effect.
Kimberly was so shocked that her mind went completely blank.
She could only instinctively stare at that figure.
In the blink of an eye, Kimberly's vision blurred, and the person suddenly appeared in front of her out of nowhere.
The other person was wearing a black round hat.
The streetlights overhead cast their glow, and the brim of the hat obscured the other person's face; she could only vaguely make out that he seemed to be a very young boy.
"Detective, it seems you and your colleagues are in some trouble."
"Yes, yes, sir."
Kimberly felt a little nervous for some reason, but she quickly calmed down.
Beneath the brim of his hat, his eyes were bright and gentle.
It seemed to subtly soothe her nervousness.
“You need to rest, madam, and you will soon forget this unpleasant experience.”
The boy's voice was clear, bright, and very pure.
Kimberly didn't know why the other person said that, but her consciousness became blurred, a strong drowsiness surged into her heart, and she finally closed her eyes.
She fell forward, and in her last moments of consciousness, she saw the boy's handsome lips, the corners of which were turned up. Was he smiling?
With her last thoughts, Kimberly fell into a deep sleep.
Chapter 178 Go Back to Your Hell (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
The car, which was originally empty, now contained five agents who had fallen into a deep sleep.
Judging from the smiles on their faces, it must have been a good dream.
Matthew glanced at it and smiled slightly.
With his current level of expertise, even if he can't see a person's past and future, he can at least see many things that are impossible to hide.
He could tell that these agents were not bad.
Compared to the corrupt officials in the US government, these frontline workers are much more responsible.
Matthew has always admired people of good character.
They shouldn't die here like this, dying in fear.
After he finished, he turned around and looked at the house in front of him.
The previously closed door was now open, seemingly inviting Matthew, the uninvited guest, inside.
Matthew didn't stand on ceremony and just walked in.
As soon as you walk in, after passing through the entryway, the living room comes into view.
The living room furniture and decorations are no different from those in an ordinary family home, only simpler, and the lighting is slightly dim rather than bright.
It felt more oppressive.
There were two people in the living room, a mother and daughter, both sitting on the sofa, looking at the old-fashioned television set that was not turned on.
Even when Matthew came in, the mother and daughter didn't even turn around.
It wasn't until Matthew walked in that he could clearly see what the mother and daughter looked like.
My mother had dry, dark brown hair with gray roots, which was casually tied into a loose, messy low bun.
He was thin and emaciated, with a slightly hunched back, pale and sallow complexion, almost bloodless, with sunken eye sockets and cloudy whites of his eyes.
Although expressionless, it conveyed a sense of gloom, obsession, and madness.
The girl had soft, light chestnut-colored long hair, naturally curly, and not well-maintained, hanging messily over her shoulders, with thick bangs covering her forehead.
She was slender and thin, with beautiful features, dark brown pupils, and extremely white skin, almost sickly pale.
A sense of naivety tinged with timidity.
The girl's eyes were vacant, and her lips were trembling slightly, making the atmosphere in the living room very strange.
An ordinary person seeing this scene would probably be so frightened that they would run away.
But Matthew saw something else entirely.
The mother and daughter are at odds.
The entire living room was filled with a mixed and powerful energy, and the two energies were maintaining a strange balance.
The mother's energy, carrying darkness and seduction, was gradually seeping into the girl's power.
The girl was about to give in.
However, Matthew could sense an extremely powerful force hidden within the girl's body.
And once it erupts, it's far stronger than that little girl, Nydy.
Another half-demon, half-human hybrid.
Or perhaps her family history includes a demonic ancestor.
Rumble!
A red glint flashed in Matthew's eyes, and a streak of red and black lightning exploded out of thin air, disappearing in an instant. A terrifying aura slowly emanated from him, distorting the air throughout the living room.
The whole house began to shake slightly.
His arrival is about to disrupt this already strange balance.
The mother finally couldn't sit still any longer.
Like a rusty robot, she stiffly turned her head to look at Matthew, revealing a chilling smile, her voice dry yet grating: "It's a pleasure to meet you, the next guardian of Earth."
"Lilith."
Matthew narrowed his eyes and called out a name.
Instead of the woman's original name, Margaret.
"It's an honor that you know me."
Margaret, or rather Lilith, spoke in a seemingly humble manner, but Matthew knew that this kind of demon would never be humble to anyone.
Greed and desire are their true nature.
Beneath that humble exterior lies a terrifying murderous intent.
Matthew didn't bother arguing with her. His eyes were tinged with red, and an overwhelming will swept towards Lilith.
The rampant Conqueror's Haki was almost tangible.
But Matthew controlled it very well, without damaging anything else in the house, and focused entirely on Lilith.
Matthew looked down at Lilith.
"Earth is not a place for you. Either go back to Earth or die here."
The attitude was firm and left no room for argument.
"You can't do this! She's my junior, and my blood flows in her veins!" Upon hearing this, Lilith immediately dropped all pretense and roared in fury.
In her furious roar, a terrifying force erupted, nearly blowing the entire house away.
However, Matthew would never argue with her.
Because he had long seen through the ruthless nature of this devil.
Matthew leaned forward and suddenly grabbed Lilith by the neck, lifting her off the sofa.
Ignore the other person's distorted and ugly face.
Rumble!
A dark luster enveloped his right hand, crackling with terrifying black and red lightning that exploded. Accompanied by his indifferent voice, she was flung away.
"Your desires caused her sixteen years of suffering."
Matthew's flick sent Lilith flying backward, but she crashed into the air, shattering it as if a mirror were breaking. A crisp sound echoed as Lilith's body, crackling with red and black lightning, disappeared into the air.
The moment Lilith disappeared, the girl who had been sitting listlessly on the sofa suddenly began to gasp for breath.
His chest heaved rapidly, and he couldn't help but cough repeatedly.
After coughing a few times, the girl covered her chest and looked at Matthew.
Those eyes, once filled with inferiority and timidity, now revealed gratitude and curiosity.
"Thank you, sir."
The girl never imagined that someone would come to save her when she was at her most desperate and helpless.
In the girl's eyes at that moment, the boy in the black overcoat and round hat was like a humble believer meeting God.
"You shouldn't be treated like this."
Matthew saw the kindness and gentleness in the heart of this insecure girl.
I could also see the pain and anger that she had been suppressing for over a decade.
Matthew knew that when the girl's anger completely erupted, she would undergo a complete transformation, activating the demonic bloodline hidden within her body and unleashing unimaginable and terrifying disaster.
This entire region may be destroyed.
Lilith's goal is to transform and corrupt the girl, ultimately turning her into her lackey and puppet.
Become the other party's spokesperson as they travel the earth.
Matthew, of course, would not allow this to happen.
After gently comforting her, he glanced around and saw Lilith, who had been thrown into the mirror dimension world by him, going berserk.
He turned around to look at the girl.
"She is no longer your mother."
"I know." After a moment of silence, the girl nodded, her eyes revealing a look that was hard to tell whether it was sadness or relief.
"So, do you want to witness the moment you are free?"
Matthew extended his hand, inviting the girl to join him.
