He tried to maintain his Dark Concealment at around 80%. Outside, more than seventy people were involved in a brawl. The Holy Relics intermittently emitted flashes of all kinds of colors, which were quite a sight.

It wasn’t difficult to find the witch. Her unique Purple Fire Whip shone dazzlingly bright, and her ability to turn into mist meant snipers had failed to kill her so far.

Chen Ke took out his PPQ45, screwed on the silencer, and aimed at her shiny bald head.

Suddenly, she turned and looked directly at Chen Ke.

“What’s the principle?” Chen Ke was taken aback.

The Silent Witch turned into black mist in an instant and shot toward Chen Ke’s face.

After transforming into mist, everything but the Holy Relics carried on her person would fall to the ground, so now the witch was exposed before Chen Ke.

Before she could fully materialize, the whip burning with purple flames flew straight at him. Chen Ke flexed his thighs and leaped to the side.

Midair, he felt the hand holding the gun heat up immensely. When he landed and looked at his hand, he saw his right palm and the PPQ45 wrapped tightly by the witch’s whip and quickly dissolving into water.

The PPQ45 was gone, and so was his right hand. The empty, blood-soaked sleeve flapped in the wind, thankfully his clothes were intact.

The witch sneered and hurled a second lash at Chen Ke.

A flash of gold in Chen Ke’s left hand, and he summoned Faralis’ Unyielding Fury! Although he couldn’t lift it, nobody said he couldn’t stick it into the ground!

The golden greatsword became entangled in the flying purple whip. Chen Ke grasped the hilt with his left hand and turned it into his chest. There was a sensation as if cutting paper with a box cutter, and the purple whip was severed.

The witch screamed, and her right arm withered quickly where the whip had been cut. She looked at the golden sword in disbelief and said incredulously, “Justice… it’s a Justice attribute!”

Before the witch could recover from the shock, the golden greatsword turned back into a diamond and slid into Chen Ke’s wallet.

He rushed forward, and as his left hand instantaneously regenerated, he slid the ARK tactical recurve knife he had bought from Walmart 511’s counter out of his sleeve.

The knife point entered the witch’s upper left abdomen first. Then, relying on the gap between the ribs, Chen Ke flicked his wrist, driving the blade into her heart.

He held the knife handle with his left hand and wrapped his right arm around the witch, slowly laying her down on the ground. No blood spurted from the wound because the blade was still pressing on the heart.

The witch’s eyes widened. There was no more killing intent in them, only jealousy and regret.

“If only… I could have met you sooner…” the witch sighed.

Chen Ke understood what she meant.

Nobody had been there to save her when she most needed it. If she had been as lucky as Lucina, perhaps things would have turned out differently today.

But there are no ifs in this world…

“I’m sorry, everyone has their fate,” Chen Ke said lightly, stirring the knife handle and smashing her heart.

The light faded from the witch’s eyes as she lost all signs of life.

A surge of killing intent hit him. Chen Ke’s fight with the witch had attracted the attention of a sniper. He rolled away swiftly, disappearing from everyone’s perception.

The battle in the factory raged on. Limbs of monsters, severed by the Holy Relics, and corpses of assassins dissolved into acidic water by Corrosion attribute Spiritual Energy lay scattered everywhere, while the sniper in the distance kept taking heads.

The monsters tried to summon black orbs but were repeatedly interrupted by the sniper. It seemed they had no answer to the attacks from beyond their sight.

Chen Ke furrowed his brows, according to the way things were going, the fight would end in a few more minutes, and then it would be a bit troublesome to think about running away.

He made his way back to the workshop building and found the cabinet hiding Lucina, then hoisted Lucina out of the cabinet.

She was deeply asleep, having sustained serious injuries all over her body, and with Chen Ke’s infusion of nearly half of his assassin’s ‘Spiritual Energy’, both her body and mind had reached their limits.

Honestly, even Chen Ke didn’t know if Lucina could wake up again; people tend to lose their memories in a state of extreme fear as a kind of self-protection mechanism by the brain. In more severe cases, it’s possible to become comatose.

Lucina closed her eyes, her head slumped on her left shoulder, her deep brown curly hair matted to her face with blood and sweat, in contrast to the awake Lucina, Chen Ke found the unconscious one a bit more charming.

He reached out to brush the messy hair from Lucina’s face when she suddenly opened her eyes.

“Fuck! Fuck!” Chen Ke was startled by those eyes, his hand trembling slightly in mid-air.

Lucina’s gaze was filled with complex emotions, and in her eyes, Chen Ke saw fear, anxiety, guilt, and anger.

She looked at Chen Ke, struggling to adjust her emotions but in the end, anger took over.

“Mad Fak! Did you just shoot at me?!” Lucina grabbed Chen Ke’s hanging right wrist, furious.

Damn… she’s been beaten so badly, how can she still have so much strength?

Chen Ke tried to withdraw his hand but found it not so easy.

“I just went to great lengths to save your life…” Chen Ke said.

The suit’s ‘Dark Concealment’ effect had its limits; if the wearer had made contact with someone, its meme deception would temporarily fail unless the person who had discovered the wearer lost the target again.

Maybe Lucina had already woken up when Chen Ke carried her out of the cabinet, or even earlier…

“Where did you shoot just now?” Lucina asked, while touching her own body, a sticky mix of oil, sweat, blood, and dust on her; it was quite sorry, and even Lucina herself felt disgusted.

“I didn’t shoot you with a gun, you fainted on your own,” Chen Ke spread his hands.

Lucina punched Chen Ke in the chest, saying, “Don’t lie to me, I’m not that cowardly!”

“Hey… girl,” Chen Ke’s right hand rested on Lucina’s shoulder, looking at her as she showed a tenderness he had never seen before.

“Thank you for coming to rescue me, Chen Ke. I didn’t expect you would be willing to… I messed things up, didn’t I?” Lucina whispered.

“No, you did great, we’re just waiting for you to come back and split the money,” Chen Ke smiled.

“Right… split the money… so much money…” Lucina started laughing, then, catching Chen Ke’s left arm, she heaved a long sigh and passed out again.

Chen Ke sighed; it seemed that Lucina had merely been forcing herself to stay conscious, and now had exhausted her energy.

He took off his suit jacket, draped it over Lucina, then carried Lucina on his shoulder and sneaked out of the workshop.

The fight outside was still ongoing, with forty-odd people still tangled up in combat. The freaks of Yasla didn’t seem to have the upper hand, but in the end, there were more assassin corpses on the field.

Speaking of physical strength alone, Yasla’s freaks were far superior to the assassins, and they could exhibit all kinds of strange abilities without the need for Holy Relics.

Just as Hainerd had said, the freaks of Yasla, in pursuit of merging man with ‘Spiritual Energy’ into one, were no longer in the realm of human.

At this moment, the sound of urgent sirens came from the direction of the factory gate, followed by the screeching of tires from several cars stopping abruptly.

Chen Ke peeked out from the edge of the door, guessing it was the Administration Bureau following the signal of the ‘Spiritual Ability Pistol’ that had arrived, so he turned his head and sneaked back into the factory.
