Wang Wen frowned.
He took a look around at the people.
He inhaled deeply and opened his hands. Even though there was no wind, his clothes fluttered.
He closed his eyes, then reopened them.
In the sky, a bright blue light screen appeared.
The menacing fireballs instantly turned into flames as they drowned them all, weakly rising into the sky with the light curtain.
All the fireballs were extinguished.
The light screen also scattered into specks of starlight.
When the people below saw that scene, especially the four members of Mi Lailai’s team who had just arrived, they looked up, mouths agape.
The expression of the scepter-wielding old monster changed.
He sniffed carefully, and a strange look flashed in his eyes. “How could that be? You also have world energy points!”
Upon hearing that…
The crowd trembled again.
At the same time, Deputy Chief Jiang, Xiao Liu, Chen Hansheng, Mi Lailai, and the others were all staring at Wang Wen.
Their eyes were filled with disbelief; they appeared to have seen a ghost.
Even Li He, who was fighting the old monster with a gun, looked puzzled.
The old monster took advantage of the situation and aimed a spear at his head.
It burned Li He so severely that he ran away, his face covered in blood.
Mi Lailai noticed that and quickly led her team to assist.
The remaining two old monsters were not surprised. They exchanged glances before attacking Wang Wen at the same time.
They could not stop themselves any longer. They abandoned the idea of capturing and interrogating the target. They vowed to kill the target on the spot with all their might.
After seeing Wang Wen lift the light screen to collect many fireballs, Zhu Xingguo and Ren Ruoruo’s faces returned to how they were when they first left the tower.
“Master, you haven’t recovered from your injuries yet. Rest. Leave those two to us!” Zhu Xingguo said.
Wang Wen nodded and took out a gourd bottle. He took a sip and closed his eyes to rest.
In that short time, Zhu Xingguo and Ren Ruoruo had already exchanged blows with the two monsters on the other side.
The old man holding the scepter was clearly a mage. Ren Ruoruo transformed into her Devil’s Form and attacked the old man.
Zhu Xingguo waved the God’s Hammer and occasionally asked if he loved him, which frightened the empty-handed old man and broke his defense.
The two old monsters got even more shocked as they fought.
That strange creature actually had world energy points!
The two of them had strengthened their physique to Level 5 and had transcendent skills, but they could not kill the other party instantly!
What the hell was that?
They were shocked.
They were unaware that Zhu Xingguo and Ren Ruoruo were upset.
After all, Zhu Xingguo did not ascend to the 700th floor and possessed no crushing tools. He had only a few moves left because the Fair Exchange could only be used in the tower. He only had the Fart Technique and was ready to see which of the three old monsters was the most powerful and throw that at him.
On the other hand, Ren Ruoruo had a prop from the 700th floor, but it was on cooldown. Without the Battle Angel, she only had a prop from the 600th floor.
They could not beat their opponent, so all they could do was buy time for Wang Wen to recover.
Wang Wen took a sip of the gourd and paused for a few seconds. He took another mouthful and continued to rest after absorbing the energy.
He had no idea what kind of item his gourd was, but it could be removed from the World Tower.
More importantly, it appeared to help him recover his spiritual energy and heal his injuries.
There were few of them, though.
Otherwise, Wang Wen would not have been hesitant to use it after leaving the tower and intending to restore it naturally or after entering the tower.
He could not care less about saving money because the situation was urgent.
He drank every mouthful to maximize his recovery rate.
The gourd was empty after a few mouthfuls.
He also blinked his eyes open.
His body had recovered about 80 percent of its strength.
He was no longer in danger and could attack with full force.
Hence…
Cheng Qiaoyi, who was standing beside him, appeared concerned.
Chen Hansheng and a few members of the Regional Security Department stood nearby, perplexed.
Wang Wen raised his hand.
He snatched the heads of the three old monsters floating in the air.
He unleashed all of his spiritual power.
Wang Wen could stuff his mental energy into his brain and explode after breaking through his opponent’s defense due to the unique effect of the four-element breakthrough.
That was a real headshot.
When their heads were grabbed, the three old monsters froze and stopped moving.
They did not fight back. Instead, they resisted the attack with their Level 5 physiques.
Their brows were drenched in sweat.
Their eyes were filled with fear.
They had to use all their strength to repel Wang Wen’s one-on-three attack.
The scene shifted from intense movement to intense silence.
When everyone saw Wang Wen restraining the three monsters, they quickly beat them up.
Li He ordered Shen Rushuang’s puppet to hug the spear-wielding old monster and lift his clothes tightly.
Mi Lailai, on the other hand, led the team to fight the empty-handed old monster to avenge herself for the palm strike she had suffered earlier.
The two sides had reached an impasse.
The scepter-wielding old monster’s eyes flashed briefly. With a light touch of the scepter, a massive fireball appeared in the center of the field, instantly raising the temperature of the air.
Mi Lailai’s and the other four people’s sweat evaporated instantly, and their clothes dried, showing signs of being burned.
Everyone was shocked.
If a fireball five to six meters in diameter exploded, it was unlikely that any of them would be able to escape.
Before everyone could dodge…
Wang Wen pointed to the fireball with his other hand.
It felt like a needle was piercing a balloon.
The fireball dispersed instantly into a spray of water that fell to the ground, cooling the dry air and the land.
“It is pointless,” Wang Wen told the scepter-wielding monster. “The origin remains constant regardless of how many changes occur. Your fireball will never explode as long as I have strength.”
The scene was silent.
One could almost hear the proverbial pin as it dropped.
That group of friends who thought they knew Wang Wen realized they could no longer comprehend Wang Wen’s strength.
The old monster did everything he could to resist the increasing pressure. His skin was pale, and his lips trembled. He could not even utter a word.
Zhu Xingguo approached the scepter-old monster solemnly and softly asked, “You still want to fight back? It seems like you’re the strongest one. I’ll choose you!”
He did not wait for the other party to understand the meaning of his words after he finished speaking.
The old monster was hit with a Fart Technique.
Pfft!
The scepter-old freak let out an uncontrollable fart.
His expression changed drastically!
He shouted, “Spare me!”
Bang!
His brain exploded like a watermelon.
Zhu Xingguo’s head and face were splattered with various liquids.
The empty-handed old man’s legs trembled. Mi Lailai and the other four beat him black and blue. He noticed Mi Lailai turn around and ask Chen Hansheng for a grenade.
Then he witnessed his companion’s death.
He was so terrified that he shook his head and yelled, “What in hell are you waiting for?!”
Following his movements, a thin line shot over from the distant horizon.
The air rippled like water.
It spun and drilled straight into Wang Wen’s forehead.
Ding! Ding!
A sharp collision sound pierced the eardrums, sounding like a night ghost’s cry.
Wang Wen’s forehead shone brightly.
Like a turtle shell, the ground beneath his feet cracked.
Everyone was blown off their feet as air blasted out around his body. Even the glass door of a nearby hot pot restaurant was shattered into pieces.
Wang Wen saw the object in front of him.
It was a meter-long cone-shaped bullet.
The bright yellow surface of the metal became even more colorful due to the high temperature caused by the high-speed friction.
A second later…
The sound of a cannon was heard in the distance.
“There’s a sniper!” Zhu Xingguo charged at Wang Wen.
Ren Ruoruo took out the Great Sage and transformed. She somersaulted and disappeared.
Wang Wen stood in his original spot to block the bullets; his mental power was greatly drained.
That relieved the pressure on the two old monsters.
The empty-handed old monster yelled and waved his palm toward Mi Lailai’s head.
A tall and handsome team member stood in front of her.
The attack collapsed the sternum of the top-tier Boai tower climber. Mi Lai was close behind him as he spat out a large amount of blood and collapsed to the ground.
His breathing was labored, and he appeared to be dying.
The old monster had already expressed his rage with one palm, so he did not waste any more time. He turned around and reached out to attack Wang Wen.
Bang!
His head exploded as well.
The empty-handed old monster had never imagined that Wang Wen, who he thought had exhausted all of his energy, could still divert his attention to the attack.
The headless body staggered two steps and slowly fell to the ground.
The last old monster with a gun could not keep it in any longer. He screamed, waved his hand to force them back, then turned and ran.
As he ran, he shouted, “Three hundred floors? What about the three Broken Might levels? The intelligence department is f*cking crazy!”
His head exploded.
A pool of blood erupted.
However, he did not fall. He continued to run and disappeared into the night.
Zhu Xingguo was a hair’s breadth away from being hit by the bullet.
The bullet penetrated Wang Wen’s defenses and pierced into his forehead, which only managed to tilt slightly.
