Just then, a clear, cold voice silently rang in Su Hui's mind.
"Master, please be careful of the Phantom Troupe."
It was Emma's spiritual message.
"Their goals may not be entirely the same as ours, so don't completely trust them."
Su Hui's gaze remained unchanged; he merely nodded almost imperceptibly, indicating that he was aware of the situation.
Merlin, who was standing to the side, turned around as if sensing something. His blood-red eyes glanced at Emma unintentionally, and a smile appeared on his lips.
She heard it.
But she didn't expose it.
Emma's heart skipped a beat.
This seemingly harmless girl was able to detect her telepathic communication.
However, now is not the time to dwell on these things.
The operation has been planned, and everyone has begun to make preparations.
Su Hui led Harley, Claire, and Merlin quickly toward the garage.
With a low growl from its engine, the heavily modified Hummer, resembling a steel beast, burst through the garage door and drove into the swirling snow.
"Time is of the essence."
"I need to cast some magic to speed things up." Mei thought for a moment, wondering if Lin was available...
Inside the car, Merlin, petite as she sat in the back seat, looked at Su Hui and gave him a reminder.
Before Su Hui could reply, she raised the "Eternal Flower Staff" in her hand, and the crystal at the top of the staff emitted a soft yet dazzling light.
"Blessing of the Wind".
"The Veil of Concealment".
"Spatial rhythm".
hum-
As Merlin chanted softly, invisible magical fluctuations instantly enveloped the entire vehicle.
The enormous roar of the Hummer disappeared mysteriously, and its speed in the snowstorm more than doubled. The wheels rolled over the snow but left almost no trace.
The outline of the Hummer began to blur, and ripples appeared in the surrounding space. Together with Su Hui and the others inside the vehicle, they entered a stealth state that could not be observed by the naked eye, as if they had blended into the night.
Standing in front of the villa's floor-to-ceiling windows, Emma cut off the communication, her icy blue eyes fixed on the direction where the streak of light had disappeared.
Tina, Mary, Ava, and Robin stood behind her.
"Brother Su Hui... he won't be in danger, will he?"
Mary's golden twin ponytails swayed slightly, her little face filled with worry.
"You have to trust him."
Emma turned around and gently patted Mary's shoulder, her voice as calm as ever.
"We also have our own tasks."
Let's take action.
……
With Merlin's magic blessing it, the Hummer traveled smoothly all the way.
Like a black lightning bolt, it traversed the desolate streets of New York.
Abandoned vehicles and roadblocks along the way were mercilessly crushed and smashed by its menacing ram.
As the vehicles passed through the once-glittering Hollywood Walk of Fame, now reduced to ruins, and approached the Hollywood Hills.
A series of muffled and dense artillery booms echoed continuously, and even several kilometers away, the deafening explosions could still be clearly heard.
The night sky was illuminated again and again by the firelight, as bright as day.
"Honey! It sounds like it's lively over there."
Harley pressed her face against the car window excitedly, her eyes sparkling as she gazed at the flickering firelight among the distant mountains.
Su Hui didn't speak; he directly activated the upgraded system's scanning capabilities.
hum-
An invisible wave emanated from him, spreading out instantly and covering a distance of ten kilometers, enveloping the entire Hollywood Hills area.
Next second,
The world before my eyes immediately changed.
In his perception, an incredibly brutal real-time battlefield scene was clearly presented in his mind in the form of an information stream.
The federal army's defenses are on the verge of collapse.
Several M1A2 main battle tanks, like ripped toys, were engulfed in flames, their turrets violently twisted into the sky.
The armed helicopter, billowing black smoke, plummeted from the sky like a bird with broken wings, creating a huge fireball as it crashed to the ground.
Countless soldiers' corpses were scattered across the snow, turning the pristine white snow a glaring crimson.
The battle was becoming increasingly one-sided, with soldiers being slaughtered by three incredibly fast black figures.
One of the figures moved with ghostly speed, and wherever it passed, the soldiers' bodies were instantly devoured by countless tiny black insects, leaving only white skeletons covered in blood and flesh.
Another figure wielded a massive scythe, each swing creating a crimson arc that easily tore through the sturdy armor like paper.
The third figure was the most eerie; she seemed to blend into the shadows, appearing silently behind the soldiers and snapping their necks before they could react.
The three sisters' laughter, cruel and mocking, echoed across the bloody battlefield.
The heavy firepower of the Federation army was unable to lock onto their figures. Even those genetic warriors who had been injected with gene serum and whose physical abilities far exceeded those of ordinary people were still as fragile as paper in front of them.
Su Hui's perception continued to penetrate deeper, traversing the chaotic battlefield and heading towards the core area of the singularity ruins.
There, inside a building covered in dark purple fungal carpets and crystal clusters, twisted as if it were alive.
Two powerful energy sources are colliding violently.
One of the energies was very familiar to Su Hui; it belonged to Bayonetta and was filled with the unique elegance and dangerous magical fluctuations characteristic of witches.
But at this moment,
This energy was becoming extremely unstable; her breathing was noticeably disordered and no longer composed.
The other aura, however, was filled with arrogance, malevolence, and an indescribable sense of oppression.
Su Hui could even "see" that deep inside the hall of that strange building, a white figure nearly three meters tall, like a small giant, was suppressing Bayonetta in an almost playful manner.
Bayonetta's prized Witch Time became weak in the face of that figure.
Her black, tight-fitting leather suit made of demonic hair was now tattered, revealing deep, bone-revealing claw marks on her exposed skin.
Bayonetta's condition is worse than expected.
"This is not good!"
Almost at the same time that Su Hui realized all this, Merlin beside him also noticed the urgency of the battle. Her little face was full of solemnity as she turned to Su Hui and hurriedly reminded him.
"I'll go ahead and provide support. You all catch up as soon as possible!"
Merlin left behind only this one sentence.
The Eternal Flower Staff in her hand shone brightly, and her petite figure instantly disintegrated in the dazzling magical light, turning into countless starlight and petals that vanished into the speeding Hummer.
98. Battlefield crushing, fast forward to the big truck! [1.2 words update, please vote!]
The strange silence inside the carriage was broken the moment Merlin vanished, turning into starlight and petals.
"Wow!"
Harley's heterochromatic eyes widened, and she was practically pressed against the back of the seat in front of her, her tone filled with undisguised amazement and wonder.
"Honey, are all mages this cool? They just vanished in a flash!"
Even Claire, who always had a cold expression, showed a hint of surprise in her blue eyes.
Su Hui's eyes remained unmoved; he merely glanced at the rearview mirror and looked at the spot where Merlin had disappeared.
He slammed his foot on the gas pedal.
boom--! ! !
The heavily modified steel beast let out a terrifying roar that had been suppressed for a long time, its engine performance pushed to the limit.
The car's speed surged again in the magical afterglow left by Merlin, like a black phantom flying close to the ground, charging towards the fiery battlefield with an almost tyrannical momentum.
The closer they got, the clearer the deafening roar of artillery fire and the piercing screams of despair became.
A strong, pungent smell of blood filled the air, mixed with gunpowder smoke and the stench of burning flesh, making one want to vomit.
Claire's cold face grew even more serious as she gripped her sword and musket tighter.
Harley stuck out her rosy little tongue and gently licked her pink lips, her azure eyes sparkling with a joyful excitement.
The Humvee did not slow down at all; its menacing rammed head crushed a burning, overturned armored personnel carrier and, with a piercing metallic groan, plunged into the heart of the battlefield.
The sudden intrusion of Su Hui and his group immediately attracted the attention of everyone on the battlefield.
The three black-clad figures that had been freely moving through the federal army's defenses simultaneously stopped their slaughter.
They flicked the blood off their weapons, turned around, and three pairs of identical eyes, radiating an eerie golden light, all turned toward the uninvited guests.
The three sisters had almost identical figures, all strikingly tall and voluptuous. Their bodies, wrapped in matching black gothic gowns, undulated gracefully, and their exquisite features resembled the finest works of art created by the gods. Their exposed skin glowed white in the firelight.
But deep within those golden pupils lay only cruelty and mockery, the complete opposite of her beauty.
The leader was a blonde woman with long, flowing hair. Her black gothic dress was stained with blood, but this did not diminish her stunning beauty; instead, it added to her alluring charm.
"Giggle..."
She let out a string of silvery laughter, her voice full of mockery.
"More new guests have arrived."
Cassandra, wearing a hood, stood beside her on the wreckage of a burning tank. She swung her scythe, flicked off the blood, and gave a seductive smile.
“It looks... a bit stronger than these ants.”
Daniela, with her brown hair, emerged from the shadows, her voice filled with naive cruelty.
Bella, with her blonde hair, gracefully lifted a soldier's head, letting the warm blood stain her pale fingers, while her golden eyes surveyed the oncoming Hummer with great interest.
"However... they're just slightly tougher insects."
"Hopefully, we won't ruin them too quickly~"
The three sisters' words were filled with indifference to life and condescending disdain.
In their eyes, the battle before them was nothing more than a trivial appetizer before their mother's grand feast.
Everyone present will become a sacrifice offered to the mother.
The car door opens.
Su Hui got out of the car first, the biting cold wind whipping up the hem of his black trench coat.
The biting wind whipped up the hem of his black coat, and fine snowflakes landed on his shoulders, but seemed to be repelled by an invisible aura, unable to touch him at all.
He didn't even glance at the three sisters.
His gaze pierced through the chaotic battlefield, landing on the twisted building deep within the ruins, covered in a dark purple fungal carpet, as if the three figures were merely air.
He had already discerned the strength of the three sisters during the system scan.
More than fifty levels.
For him now, this level no longer poses any threat.
The real trouble lies in that being deep within the ruins.
This utter disregard is far more chilling than any verbal provocation.
Harley, who got off the bus next, stretched dramatically and tapped her "Goodnight" baseball bat lightly on her shoulder.
She chuckled and looked at the three sisters not far away. Her voice was clear and melodious, but her words carried a malice that could ignite a powder keg.
