The cicada wings pierced into his head, but not a drop of blood flowed out. It was as if it had pierced into empty space.
07's current body was composed of flames. His physical form was that of a small, red bird.
He lifted his leg and kicked Bai Qiushi in the abdomen. Michael's holy sword was also engulfed in flames.
The cicada in autumn was just a last-minute attempt.
The blade in Bai Qiushi's hand fell off, and black flames ignited on his body.
07's kick was merciless; Bai Qiushi's ribs protruded from his back, and he rolled on the ground, looking very miserable.
Bai Qiushi took out the special medicine from his pocket and poured it all into his mouth.
If he didn't take the medicine, he would soon be unable to suppress the degree of mutation.
The flames corroded him, Bai Qiushi's expensive uniform melted, leaving burn marks on his skin.
07 bent down, picked up the fallen blade, and walked forward.
The vines of Yanbei entwined around 07's ankles, but before they could exert any force, they were burned to ashes by the spreading black flames.
Not only did his hair bloom with flowers, for the first time in his life, leaves grew. This was the prelude to complete plantization.
Even Yuan Chen subconsciously released his insects. Soft worms with sharp teeth crawled up 07's pants, but unfortunately, they were burned to ashes halfway.
07 took another step forward. Bai Qiushi covered his wound, trembling lips uttered four words: "Solid as a rock."
The high wall rose from the ground, continuously lifting upward. If the top closed, it would probably form a huge cage, trapping him and 07 together.
Amidst the lightning and thunder, Michael understood Bai Qiushi's plan—he wanted to drag 07 to his death.
Just like the original operation of the God Kingdom, two A-level Harbingers sacrificed themselves to become sea mist, locking down the entire Shenlongjia.
Michael's voice was slightly hoarse amidst the lightning and thunder: "Old Zhou!"
Zhou Qiming finally emerged from the ground.
In order to get close to 07, he set himself to "Burrow" mode.
Zhou Qiming waited for a long time before a big question mark appeared above Zong Yan's head.
This meant that he could now use the talent to alter settings on 07.
He had never used this talent on an S-level Pollutant before, and he didn't even know if it would work. If it weren't for the consumption by others, Zhou Qiming would probably find it difficult to do this.
As he approached 07, he subconsciously glanced at the top of his head, and 07's title turned out to be [01's Dog].
It was like something in a Py without permission to view.
But as soon as he opened the character interface, Zhou Qiming broke out in a cold sweat.
07's settings were like a pirated book with missing words, incomplete.
[Setting 1: 01's Dog, Burning Little Bird.]
[Setting 2: Pollutant with Pollution Value 12813, Talents: Inferno, Signal Interference.]
[Setting 3: ... Patient.]
[Objective 1: Retrieve other test subjects.]
[Objective 2: Kill Harbingers outside of test subjects.]
Zhou Qiming tried to add Objective 3, such as "Abandon Mission" or "Leave the Slaughterhouse," but he quickly received a reminder saying "conflict with objectives" and could not be executed.
In the end, Zhou Qiming successfully added only one setting.
[Setting 4: Possess a physical form.]
07 looked at Zhou Qiming, and finally, there was emotion on his face.
His expression was one of disgust, as if he were looking at an annoying bug.
He could vaguely feel what Zhou Qiming wanted to do to him, wanting to manipulate his thoughts, so he instinctively felt nauseous.
Because of this, he even gave up killing Bai Qiushi, and the Pope fell from his arms to the ground.
He reached out and grabbed Zhou Qiming. At the same time, Michael and Bai Qiushi rushed towards him.
Because he possessed a physical form, this time, if 07 were touched, he would probably be injured.
So, to the disbelief of everyone, a pair of flame wings formed behind 07, soaring into the sky in an instant.
Where he had originally stood, there was a deafening roar. Dust filled the air, billowing thick smoke.
Lu Yan arrived at the scene and witnessed such a scene.
The system couldn't help but roar: "[Qi to Wings Transformation! So terrifying!]"
"[Brave Yan Yan, fearless! Charge!]"
Lu Yan took out the Dragonbone Bow from behind and aimed at Zong Yan.
In just a minute, he shot all the arrows in the quiver.
Lu Yan knew very well that these arrows wouldn't cause any substantial harm to Zong Yan.
What he wanted was dominance of the sky.
Fifteen arrows
in the air, like guided missiles, interwove into a net, relentlessly pursuing 07 from behind, forcing him to land from mid-air.
And what Lu Yan was waiting for was the moment when 07 landed.
The Butcher Rabbit grabbed Lu Yan's collar with its soft, plush arm and jumped up with him.
There was no way Lu Yan could fly.
They passed through the sea of fire, and flames erupted on the plush rabbit's body.
It was as if delirium had a higher effect on humans than on pollutants.
The killing power of fire on pollutants was also much higher than on Harbingers.
The plush rabbit cried out in pain, tears streaming down its face: "Daddy, it's hot!"
But it still faithfully followed Lu Yan's command and brought him to 07.
07 originally wanted to make a move, but the moment he saw Lu Yan's face, a hint of confusion flashed across his expression: "...Doctor?"
As soon as the words were spoken, even 07 himself was stunned.
Who was the doctor? What doctor?
07 felt like they should know each other; he seemed to have seen Lu Yan somewhere.
But his mind was blank, and he couldn't recall any related memories.
Still, 07 felt a sense of familiarity.
This sense of familiarity caused 07's face to soften, showing a bit of his past shadow.
Lu Yan opened his eyes in the black flames, locking onto 07's eyes.
In the depths of his eyes, the pupils shone like blood.
