134 Chapter - Outsiders
After an unknown amount of time, Tang Yan and the others finally rushed over, leading a group of Pioneers in a frantic hurry.
At the end of their sight, the city, engulfed in raging flames, stood on the mountaintop, shining so brightly in the dark night.
For a moment, everyone stared at the scene before them, stunned.
"Could it be that Infinite City has already been taken by Bai Cheng alone?"
Although they were unwilling to believe it, there was no doubt that Bai Cheng had already entered Infinite City.
The only question was whether she had ended the battle yet....
Just then, Tang Yan suddenly noticed the flickering firelight inside the city, accompanied by screams and wails, and he immediately became excited.
"How could Bai Cheng possibly take Infinite City by herself!"
"Listen, she should still be in the middle of a battle!"
After listening carefully, everyone indeed heard the commotion, and their anxious hearts finally settled down.
"Tang Ge, then let's hurry up and rush in too, what if we're too late and don't get the reward...."
"What, do you really think Bai Cheng can complete the mission by herself?" Tang Yan immediately sneered, he hated those who questioned him the most.
Seeing this, the subordinate immediately changed his words: "No, no, I mean, if Bai Cheng gets killed because we're late, won't we not get the employee card?"
"Hmph, you don't need to remind me of that, of course." Tang Yan looked deeply at the distant Infinite City, ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) a confident smile on his face.
"Weren't you worried about Bai Cheng's strength being too great just now? Now that she's fighting the Infinite Marauders, isn't this the best opportunity to weaken her strength?"
Everyone instantly understood.
Yes, the more Bai Cheng's strength was depleted, the smaller their losses would be.
"We'll go in and clean up the mess when Bai Cheng can't hold on anymore, and reap the benefits!"
The group exchanged glances, all with knowing smiles.
Meanwhile, in the core of Infinite City, inside a palace whose architectural style was distinctly different from its surroundings.
A man in armor stood respectfully to the side, his head bowed, looking at the blurry silhouette seated in the darkness before him.
He spoke: "My Lord, although we have now become Free Ones and possess our own territory, to a certain extent, we are still restricted by the system and are often attacked by certain channels, and although we sometimes have helpers, they are almost always from the weakest channels...."
The man hesitated, then seeing no reaction from the other party, he felt relieved enough to continue.
"My Lord, how did you manage to transform and successfully leave this cursed place back then?"
(Chew, chew, chew)...
A sound of bones cracking echoed, and the dark figure suddenly turned, its eyes glowing with a crimson light.
"You want to break free from the restrictions and enter the Infinite Realm?" His voice was hoarse and grating, as if he hadn't spoken in a long time.
The man immediately nodded like a pecking chick, his eyes gleaming with desire.
"You should know why I returned here, shouldn't you?" The dark figure sneered, then threw the shriveled corpse he had been eating in front of him.
The man's heart trembled; under the light, the internal organs and flesh of the young girl's corpse before him had been completely eaten, leaving only a shriveled human skin.
He, of course, knew the other party's purpose, so he immediately made a guarantee.
"This humble one guarantees to only take the most trusted people to leave; Freedom City will not have problems, my brother will continue to gather other Survivors for the church...."
"Hmph!" The dark figure sneered, "Taking you to leave already breaks the rules; understand your place, you are nothing but livestock being raised!"
The man's brows furrowed, but he immediately corrected himself: "My Lord is right."
He gritted his teeth and made a decision: "As long as my Lord can take this subordinate away, that will be enough...."
Hearing the other party's answer, the dark figure's anger subsided, and a satisfied smile appeared.
"Good, then today, on behalf of the church, I will make an exception and take you as my servant; after it's done, I will take you...."
Before he finished speaking, the entire palace suddenly trembled, a large amount of dust fell, and then a commotion came from inside the city.
"What's going on?" The dark figure questioned the leader before him with displeasure.
And the man immediately explained: "Freedom City will be attacked by Survivors in the next few days, but the specific channel is not yet known, but they should...."
What he wanted to say was that those Survivors alone shouldn't cause such a big commotion in the entire city.
After all, Infinite City had just updated its technology, and that was a barrier personally blessed and constructed by this Lord of the church.
Compared to before, this commotion should have been the smallest.
The dark figure, of course, knew that one of his purposes for being here was for those Survivors.
These were food delivered to their doorstep, and he could eat his fill at once, without worrying about alerting the Free Ones.
Such a rare opportunity even led him to bring a few companions.
"Go see what's happening."
The dark figure asked, and the man nodded and immediately turned to walk out of the palace.
However, as soon as he opened the door, he ran into a subordinate who had come to report, and he questioned him somewhat impatiently.
"What are you doing, being so flustered!"
"City Lord, it's bad!" The guard's face was filled with terror, and the terrifying figure wreathed in flames still echoed in his mind.
"The Survivors have attacked, that guy shattered the barrier with one punch, and is now slaughtering our companions in the city!"
"What the hell are you talking about!" The City Lord's first reaction upon hearing this was disbelief, and he even angrily kicked the guard to the ground.
"A War General-level barrier, and you're telling me it was shattered? Believe you, or believe I'm Qin Shi Huang!"
The guard dared not speak, and although the City Lord was angry, an ominous premonition inexplicably arose in his heart.
He immediately prepared to go investigate, but the voice of that Lord sounded from behind him.
"Interesting, it seems to be a beast from Channel One, I'll go see it myself!"
With that, a dark figure instantly swept past the two of them.
The City Lord quickly lowered his head and also felt relieved, even feeling a hint of pity for these invaders.
"If that Lord personally takes action, these Survivors are probably doomed to be wiped out."
At this moment, the dark figure moving through the city suddenly stopped, because in front of him, a dozen or so Survivors and employees blocked his path.
He frowned, a look of confusion on his face.
Several Pioneers at the forefront, seeing this, immediately mocked him.
"Where did this stray dog come from, daring to block the way? Kill it!"
