"Finally ended huh..."
Seeing the blazing hot fire pillar burst forth from the great earth in the distance, Tan Xin leaning against the city gate ruins, closed his eyes as if relieved of a heavy burden.
Right at this time, a figure lightly sat down beside him.
Tan Xin heard the movement, abruptly opening his eyes. From beginning to end he hadn't perceived anyone approaching himself... Moreover the current Aurora City, where was there still any living person??
When he saw that red hair fluttering dancing with the wind beside him, his whole person suddenly blanked in place.
"You... didn't you leave riding the train??" Tan Xin widened his eyes.
"Oh, I jumped off the train." Hong Xiu casually sat in the ruins, faintly speaking.
"??? Are you crazy?!"
"I said I was leaving, only to give you a bit of psychological comfort... Do you really feel I would let my subordinates wait for death here, being a deserter myself?"
"I am the Pathway Chief of [Asura], even Nuclear Weapons cannot kill me, this bit of Explosion problem isn't big."
"Then even if it's like this... you don't have the train, how do you go out from the Forbidden Sea??"
"Wasn't it you who said it? Even if without a train, I could also kill my way through the Forbidden Sea."
"You..."
Tan Xin glared at Hong Xiu, for a time speechless.
"Rest assured, I won't have any matters." Hong Xiu patted Tan Xin's shoulder. She looked at Tan Xin's eyes. After being silent for a moment, seriously speaking, "I... always have to come see you off for a stretch."
Boom—— Boom—— Boom!!
Along with the Explosives in various regions being detonated, the serial Explosions became closer and closer to the city gate. Blazing hot flames reflected in Hong Xiu's eyes. Tan Xin for a time didn't know what he should say.
Eventually, he bitterly shook his head, still closing his eyes leaning beside the broken wall.
"...Up to you, damn it... who can do anything to you ah?"
Hong Xiu seeing his completely helpless appearance, a smear of faint smile hooked up at the corners of her mouth. She also closed her eyes leaning beside the broken wall, allowing that Explosion sufficient to destroy everything to gradually approach...
Scorching hot hurricane blew past the two people. The black Enforcer windbreaker swayed with the wind.
Hong Xiu pressed down the flying red sideburns by her ear with one hand, closing her eyes, lightly saying amidst the rumbling sound:
"...Tan Xin."
"Hmm?"
"I will carry Aurora City's will, to find a method to rescue you guys..."
"I know, you are Aurora City's Enforcer Commander-in-Chief right." Tan Xin still closed his eyes.
"Of course this reason is also very important..."
"Then there are other reasons?"
"There are ah, you guess?"
"What do I have to guess..."
Tan Xin's voice hadn't fallen, a pair of warm and moist lips suddenly held his mouth. He astonishedly opened his eyes, then saw the fiery red long hair flying in the scorching hot storm. A pair of eyes full of sparkling and translucent teardrops was currently gazing at him close at hand. Teardrops silently rolled down from the corners of the eyes...
Boom——!!
The Explosives at the most edge of the city exploded open with a boom. Piercingly bright fierce sun shrouded the entire piece of ruins within it. Tan Xin's both hands lightly wrapped on the back of that figure, seemingly wanting to pull her into his embrace...
The next moment, the radiance of the flames then thoroughly swallowed the figures of the two people.
Tens of Explosion points were all detonated. The entire Aurora City transformed into a sea of fire. In this resplendent radiance countless Calamities were burned into ash. The giant beasts' angry roars seemingly wanted to tear the sky, but even if it was so, it was also still covered by the deafening rumbling.
Outside the city.
Seeing piercingly bright firelight rush up to the sky, shock emerged on the faces of several Dusk Society members.
"Holy crap!" Nine of Hearts felt this hot wave pouncing at his face, widening his eyes in disbelief, "This is exactly Six of Hearts's strength??"
"...This should be Explosives pre-prepared by the Aurora Base." Chu Muyun pushed his glasses. "Although what it was originally made for is still unclear, but now it also counts as doing a good deed... At least, reducing the pressure of millions of Calamities for humanity right."
"Six of Hearts silently doing great matters ah? This kid has a bit of ability."
[10] slightly nodded, a smear of admiration and praise emerging in his eyes: "Although looking from the exterior it can't quite be seen out, but from this matter it can be seen out, Six of Hearts is still quite warm-hearted."
"Warm-hearted? Yeah, indeed quite warm-hearted." Nine of Hearts spread his hands, "Hot to this appearance, estimating he's about to be charred."
"..."
"Eh, who among you saw that person?"
"Don't know ah... Speaking of which, just now when it Exploded, that person seemingly then disappeared unseen..."
"Could it be..."
The Dusk Society crowd looked at each other in blank dismay.
...
The scorching hot flames gradually dispersed exhaustedly, exposing the great earth's appearance of devastation everywhere.
Between the flying dust and embers, a badly mutilated skeleton was currently recovering at an astonishing speed. White bones birthed meat, meat birthed skin. Within a short few seconds, a red-haired figure then recovered original appearance.
Hong Xiu still maintained the movement during the Explosion, both hands hugging nothingness. Between the crook of her arms, dust and ash dirt were currently accompanied by flame embers, silently rolling up to the sky.
She was still alive, but he... had already died, exactly before her eyes.
The sobbing cold wind resembled weeping and complaining. She alone knelt sitting in the ruins for a long time, silently and slowly standing up...
She picked up the black Enforcer windbreaker full of dust on the ground, anew draping it on her body. At her chest, a transparent pendant sealing a tongue, was currently silently flashing radiance.
Inside her eyes reflected the sky full of flowing cyan and blue aurora. Fiery-like red hair flew dancing with the wind.
Eventually, she only calmly and resolutely spoke out two words:
"...Wait for me."
She turned around walking towards outside the ruins.
However, she just walked out a few steps, suddenly slightly pausing, seemingly perceiving something. Wrinkling her brows looking towards the depths of Aurora City's remains...
Inside the gray Aurora City, even if the absolute large majority of Calamities were all transformed into flying ash by this terrifying Explosion, there were still a few colossal monsters surviving down. They angrily roared, dragging dilapidated bodies seemingly searching for something inside the city.
Plop——
Amidst the tower ruins, a hand sleeved in scarlet theatrical costume, suddenly extended out from the abandoned bricks.
Following closely, a figure slowly sat straight up from the dust. Like a puppet pulled on silk threads, weirdly standing up with a posture difficult to understand. Every single joint on his whole body was emitting crackling and rattling sounds.
Even experiencing such a terrifying Explosion, the Theatrical Robe on his body was still spotless, new like it had just been woven out!
Although only causing slight sounds, but this in the deathly still ruins, actually was also enough to attract people's attention. Those surviving colossal monsters abruptly looked towards this direction. After discovering that sole scarlet, the violent angry roar resembled thunder!!
Chen Ling's this bombing, not only bombed to death millions of Taboo cubs, but also bombed to death massive amounts of low rank Calamities. It could be said to have formed a blood sea deep hatred. If they didn't kill Chen Ling today, fundamentally hard to dissolve the hatred in their hearts!
Right when numerous Calamities like crazy charged towards here, that figure draped in Great Crimson Theatrical Robe moved. His neck slowly twisted, until his face turned to the back, looking straight at nothingness,
His pupils were hollow seeming like an abyss...
