NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1094: Lilith Arrives_2
"Where are Xiao Xiao and the others?" Lilith immediately asked, her voice urgent.
Wu Heng can be reborn in this world through a secret technique, but Xiao Xiao definitely cannot come along.
Wu Heng's expression darkened, but he spoke confidently, "When the battle broke out, I realized the enemy's strength far exceeded expectations, so I had them escape first. They shouldn't be in danger."
Though worried, Lilith knew there was no better option now.
Facing the Divine Spirits, for Wu Heng to be reborn here, and for Xiao Xiao to escape was already a rare feat.
After pondering for a moment, she asked, "What are your plans now?"
Wu Heng was silent for a while, "You should have a basic understanding of this world's situation..."
"This is your homeland, and you were willing to bring us here during a crisis. We know the importance and definitely won't reveal it to others," Lilith said solemnly.
Wu Heng shook his head, "I mean, I will quickly regain my level! The 'Spirit Awakening Sect' has already laid a foundation in this world. Once I reach Level 18, I'll have a way to quickly acquire resources to reach a higher realm. Once I become a hero, I will immediately go back to get Xiao Xiao and the others!"
Lilith saw the familiar confidence and determination in his eyes and nodded slightly, "It's good that you have confidence."
"Did you come alone?" Wu Heng looked behind her.
"The convoy is still on its way. I was worried about you, so I used the 'Heaven and Earth Ruler' to get here first." Lilith shook the ancient bronze ruler in her hand.
"You arrived just in time!" Wu Heng remarked sincerely.
"Not many can push you to such a miserable state," Lilith smirked, a rare smile appearing on her lips.
Wu Heng chuckled, glancing at Lilith's tall, mature figure, then back at his current childish body, and had a sudden thought, "You know... could you become smaller too? So we match better when standing together."
As he spoke, he naturally stepped forward and took Lilith's hand.
Lilith glared at him playfully but didn't pull away, "Did I come all this way to play dress-up with you? What's your plan now?"
Wu Heng straightened his expression, pointing toward the Volcano Base, "There's a human base in that direction. Help me take it over as our temporary stronghold. We'll discuss detailed plans afterward."
"Are there strong people inside?" Lilith confirmed.
"This world doesn't have High-level Professionals, so it's nothing for you."
"Then let's go." Lilith acted decisively, turning to leave.
"Hey! I'm only Level 3, make sure to protect me later!" Wu Heng quickly followed.
Lilith glanced at his current small stature, then suddenly pinched his cheek with a smile, "You look quite adorable now."
Wu Heng frowned, dodging her hand, "How is everyone else? Are they okay?"
"Everyone is fine, except for worrying about you," Lilith replied.
"Good! When we enter that camp, move discreetly. The main target is to eliminate their leader and control the central command," Wu Heng instructed.
"Understood, little boss," Lilith chuckled, picking him up effortlessly, spreading her wings, and flying toward the base.
...
Volcano Base, Command Center.
The cold electronic equipment emitted a steady hum, yet the room's atmosphere dropped to freezing.
When the signals of the only two armed helicopters disappeared from the screen, losing contact, the command room fell into a deathly silence.
In a post-apocalyptic environment, it's hard to imagine what kind of force could simultaneously destroy two armed helicopters so quickly.
"Immediately pull up the last images transmitted before the helicopters went offline!" The leader spoke with a grim tone, "I want to see who has the audacity to oppose me!"
Although angry, he was already convinced in his heart that this was a conspiracy against him.
It's likely the actions of a nearby base of the 'Yama Hall' attempting to annex this place.
Previously, they repeatedly proposed missionary activities, only to be rejected with various reasons, while also demanding large amounts of supplies.
But on second thought, if the 'Yama Hall' acted, there wouldn't be any need for conspiracy; they'd directly attack.
"Leader, the last footage has been retrieved!" The technician reported urgently.
The screen flickered a few times, then began playing the helicopter's final recordings.
The scene shook violently, the machine cannon roaring, attacking the buildings below from an overwhelming position.
The camera then shifted, seemingly scanning the battlefield for any survivors.
At that moment, a figure with huge black bat wings flew straight toward the helicopter at high speed!
The communication channel immediately crackled with the pilot's terrified curses.
"Damn! What the hell is that?!"
"Is it a Superpowered Man?! Fire! Quick, fire!"
The helicopter hurriedly turned its nose, the machine cannon once again spitting fire.
Yet the next second, the incoming figure dissipated like a ghost into a blood mist, followed by the pilot's desperate screams in the recording.
The video began to spin furiously, eventually ending in a burst of static noise and impact sounds, veering into darkness.
In the command room, everyone who witnessed the scene was stunned, cold sweat seeping from their backs.
A woman? With wings like a Vampire from a movie? She just destroyed an armed helicopter effortlessly?
What's become of this world!
Crash~!
Just then, a series of dull thuds echoed as bodies hit the ground behind them.
