The right hand pressed down the opponent’s wrist with unparalleled precision as it was about to reach somewhere.
Want to activate some mechanism? How could I let you have your way?
"Crack!"
A bone-breaking sound that made teeth ache came forth.
His wrist was forcibly crushed.
Then, the other limbs were dealt with and the jaw removed.
In just an instant, he lost most of his ability to move.
"Hmm?"
Just as Rachel was preparing to control the opponent, making it convenient for further interrogation to extract more information.
She suddenly discovered that the target had lost all signs of life at some unknown point.
"Not good."
Her speed was incredibly fast, ordinarily leaving the opponent no chance to react, let alone commit suicide.
And her actions were carefully controlled, not lethal at all.
So the sudden death must be some kind of premeditated act.
Sure enough, she sensed the opponent’s body starting to emit light.
The blinding light gradually expanded!
It’s too late!
The change came so suddenly.
No time to think, much less weigh other possible solutions.
She could only rely on instinct, and in the next second, her right leg muscle, comparable to a battering ram, expanded and tightened like a steel spring.
The already cracked ground beneath her feet thundered and sank again.
Then the core of her slightly curved waist and abdomen exploded with terrifying force, her body like a fully drawn strong bow, the sleek right leg sweeping upward with a high kick that concentrated her whole body’s explosive force, fiercely striking the glowing corpse.
"Bang!!!"
A thunderous boom like a cannon exploded!
The corpse seemed not to be struck by a kick but hit directly by an invisible heavy artillery, the body soaring vertically into the sky at a terrifying speed beyond the limits of the human eye, turning into a blurred stream of light, the intense friction igniting the body before the explosion, trailing a fiery tail in the air.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The corpse was kicked by Rachel, producing a sonic boom.
In an instant, it surged to a height of one or two hundred meters.
Before the corpse could rise further.
A massive, blazing fireball like a mini-sun explosively erupted at that altitude!
The deafening explosion resounded through the streets.
The violent shockwave expanded in a spherical shape, making clothes flutter wildly and standing unstable, countless debris and dust swept into the sky.
Burning wreckage and scattered flesh rained down from high altitudes.
Rachel’s formidable strength neutralized the terrifying explosive attack.
Fortunately, after the intense explosion earlier, the remaining attackers were mere small fry, easily subdued under her leadership.
But her mind remained unchanged.
Because she had a rough idea that these attackers who could be easily controlled were merely expendable pawns with no knowledge, the ones who truly had inquiries worthy of extraction had died in the explosion just now.
Her hawk-like gaze scanned the scene.
Seeing the citizens still in panic, Rachel raised her clenched right fist, her face breaking into a straightforward yet slightly naive smile.
"Everyone disperse, the crisis has been lifted!"
Sunlight shone on her mithril fist, emitting a dazzling glow.
The stalwart presence emanating from her instantly restored the citizens’ confidence.
"Long live President Rachel!"
"President is the strongest!"
An attack meticulously planned was suppressed.
Soon after, Aaliyah and others arrived at the Adventurer’s Guild Square.
They all knew that Gauss was coming today, so were very worried hearing the commotion coming from this direction.
Standing amongst the crowd, President Rachel, acting as a peaceful anchor, immediately spotted the three with worried faces.
She naturally recognized their identity.
Warmly waved to the three.
"You are... President Rachel?"
Just like Gauss earlier, Aaliyah and the others logically didn’t recognize her either, but Gauss had complained about Rachel’s monstrous physique, so they immediately connected her with the monster described by Gauss upon seeing her.
"Yes. You must be Gauss’s teammates?"
"We came over to find Gauss, he’s alright, right?" Aaliyah would look around at the chaotic scene, noticing no sign of Gauss, then remembering he came to see Rachel today, but was not at her side at the moment, couldn’t help but swallow. Her heart was anxious.
She never imagined such a high-level battle could occur even in a safe city, especially near the Adventurer’s Guild.
"Don’t worry, he’s in my room, very safe, and in a breakthrough. The recent fight happened outside." Rachel bent down, placing her ungloved right hand on Aaliyah’s shoulder.
The size difference between the two was enormous.
Aaliyah seemed like a small doll before her.
"That’s good." Aaliyah breathed a sigh of relief.
The heavy stones in the three’s hearts settled.
"If you guys aren’t reassured, once I’m done here, I’ll take you up to see." She’s not free to leave now, needing to oversee this matter.
"Then we’ll trouble you," Aaliyah indeed was still a bit uneasy.
Decided to wait with Ying and Serdur not far from her side.
The Adventurer’s Guild worked efficiently.
Quickly clearing away debris and obstacles brought by the explosion.
Rachel received instructions from the main guild that the crisis was resolved, relaxing a bit.
Other city disturbances were also quickly handled simultaneously.
This disruption was still primarily caused by humans with Sea Race heritage.
In other words, she had a premonition.
It’s not the end, only the beginning.
Ordinary humans’ tolerance towards such mixed heritage will increasingly decline.
By then, even common kind-hearted mixed heritage individuals would be targeted.
Though recognizing this, she had no means of altering this trend.
Someone was deliberately driving the creation of such circumstances.
Seeking to stir chaos, thereby obtaining benefits?
Anxious Rachel kept her expression unchanged, leading Aaliyah and the three to the training room where Gauss was.
Gauss wasn’t disturbed by the previous commotion outside.
The isolation effect here was excellent.
Or perhaps he was immersed in a state extremely difficult to interrupt.
Right now, the sharp aura he exuded had reached its pinnacle.
