Chapter 1917 - 1890: Avril Appears
Angel!
This woman is none other than Angel.
As soon as Lu Tianxing saw Angel walk in, he didn’t hesitate and immediately strode forward.
Seeing Lu Tianxing approaching, the coldness on Angel’s face gradually dissipated a lot, and she asked, "Tianxing, how is it going? Are you injured?"
The tension and worry on her face and in her voice were completely undisguised.
"I’m fine."
Lu Tianxing gently shook his head and said to Angel, "Why did you come here? Didn’t I tell you not to come?"
"I was worried you couldn’t handle it alone, so I brought some people to help you. But now, it seems you’ve already taken care of them completely." Angel said softly looking at Lu Tianxing.
As Lu Tianxing heard Angel’s words, he opened his mouth, just about to say something, when he heard several sounds whizzing through the air. The figures that had just gone to hunt down Hades and the others appeared next to Angel, each one standing there respectfully. One of them was holding a bloody head, unmistakably that of Hades. Clearly, Hades didn’t escape but was caught and killed.
"These are the forces of the Morgan Family."
Angel glanced at Lu Tianxing, gave an explanation, then immediately turned her gaze to these people, her voice cold as she asked, "How did it go? Is the matter resolved?"
"Clan Leader, it’s all been taken care of. Hades has been executed, and here’s his head." One of the white men holding the head immediately spoke up, raising the head in his hand, blood dripping from it.
Upon seeing Hades’ hideous, unfulfilled face, Angel’s gaze didn’t show any ripples as she said faintly, "Throw it in and burn it!"
The white man didn’t speak, just casually tossed Hades’ head into the sea of fire.
"Darling, it’s all resolved. Let’s leave now!" Angel glanced at the white man, then turned to look at Lu Tianxing and said.
"Let’s go!"
Lu Tianxing nodded, wasting no time, and left the church with Angel.
Such a big incident occurred here, the flames staining the sky red, yet not a single police officer showed up, clearly indicating that Little Bee had used her hacking skills to paralyze the communication network temporarily, so no officials from the Eagle Country appeared. But Little Bee couldn’t block those major forces; if he guessed correctly, those forces were probably already on their way, and staying here would be disastrous if they got held up.
As soon as Lu Tianxing and Angel stepped out of Salvation Church, they immediately saw a beautiful figure appear at the church’s entrance.
Seeing this beautiful figure, Lu Tianxing and Angel were again stunned. Avril, what is she doing here?
Upon seeing Lu Tianxing, Avril didn’t wait for him or Angel to speak before she urgently said, "Judge, leave Salvation Church from another direction immediately. The American Superman Team’s first squad is here, led by their captain Nelson, a late-stage Mythical superpower user, and a dual-element user. You need to leave now and abandon your planned escape route. Follow me, or you’ll surely die."
After hearing Avril’s words, Lu Tianxing and Angel’s faces turned serious.
The American Superman Team’s first squad is the strongest presence in the American Superhero Team, and their leader, Nelson, is a dual-element superpower user with both the fearsome power and berserk elements. When combined, the threat is far beyond a simple addition.
"How do you know he’s here?"
"I’ll explain later. Just follow me with Angel now, or you won’t have a chance to leave when the time comes."
Avril’s voice was filled with anxiety and unease.
Seeing Avril’s expression, Lu Tianxing and Angel exchanged a glance, nodded finally, and said nothing, following her in another direction, their silhouettes disappearing into the darkness like phantoms in the blink of an eye.
No sooner had they left when a group of menacing individuals appeared at the church entrance. Leading them was a black man who stood a full two meters tall, like a tower, exuding an overwhelming aura of ferocity. His gaze swept around as he waved his hand and said, "Hound, search the area."
Hound, the weakest superpower user in the American Superman Team’s first squad, was only at the Heavenly Peak level, but he possessed a formidable ability: tracking, enabling him to deduce various situations from airborne scents.
"Yes, Captain."
Among the people around the black man, a man of average height and appearance came forward, his nose twitching as if searching for something.
It took only a moment of sniffing before he said, "Royce, Poison Wolf, and Green’s scents have vanished; they’re dead. Also, all the people they brought, including Hades, are dead too. Their scents are scattered, and they didn’t die at the hands of one person; it seems Judge had reinforcements who killed them, and these reinforcements were strong."
"Do you know where Judge went?" the black man asked in a deep voice.
"They’ve already left, heading southeast."
Hound continued, "Captain, should we pursue them?"
"Yes, pursue them."
The black man stated coldly, "Now that Nelson is personally taking action, we can’t let the Judge live. This time, we’ll wash away the disgrace of the American Superman Team with his blood."
"Yes, Captain, follow me."
Hound nodded without any hesitation and immediately chased in a direction—the same direction Lu Tianxing, Avril, and the others had fled, without the slightest deviation.
At this moment, Lu Tianxing found himself in the gravest crisis he had ever faced.
Lu Tianxing, Angel, and the others, under Avril’s lead, dashed out along another route.
"Avril, how do you know Nelson and the American Superman Team are here?" Lu Tianxing couldn’t help but ask Avril.
"Have you forgotten what my identity is? I’m a Holy Daughter of the Church. Is it difficult for me to get information? Besides, I was invited here by Royce to cooperate with the people from the Holy Mountain, so it was even easier for me to find out," Avril said, casting a glance at Lu Tianxing. "If you want to question me now, you’d better save your strength for running. Otherwise, once Nelson catches up, you won’t have a chance to escape."
