"Abomination?"

Lv Bai heard Captain Mao’s reminder and quickly gestured for them to run away.

He had been in this world for a week, and though he hadn’t had the chance to fully understand every anomaly,

he remembered some of the early ones in the sequence.

Among them, sequence number 27—Abomination.

Indeed, the Abomination is one of the rare anomalies with a physical form.

A mature Abomination is a colossal creature composed of countless corpses.

The current form, a fleshy ball, was clearly in its juvenile stage and would need to devour thousands to become a massive, bloated humanoid.

Yet even so, the juvenile Abomination couldn’t be dealt with by ordinary means; even high-yield bombs might not harm it.

Facing such a terrifying anomaly, Lv Bai could only choose to pull Captain Mao and the others away.

It’s not that he was cowardly.

After all, it’s proven that regular ghost-capturing methods from Maoshan Daoist Skill don’t work on the Abomination, so without a better solution, avoidance was the best option for now.

...

In the action department’s council hall.

Visible chaos broke out as well.

Any anomaly within the top thirty of the sequence posed an extremely high-risk event for the action department.

Fortunately, this Abomination was still in its juvenile stage and hadn’t grown to an uncontrollable extent.

Minister Zhang stared at the central screen and fell into a prolonged silence.

The bald director of Lv Bao Bureau shouted a few times, barely calming the chaotic council hall.

Then he turned around, lowered his voice, and said, "Minister Zhang? You need to make a decision?"

Normally, cities where Abominations appear must quickly evacuate all citizens, and then the military is deployed to attempt to physically obliterate the Abomination with heavy firepower.

Minister Zhang’s brows knitted together, forming the character "川," before he sighed helplessly, saying decisively, "Notify the citizens for evacuation."

Upon hearing this decision, the bald director instinctively said, "Can’t we wait a bit longer? Losing another major city is a loss we can’t afford."

It’s not that he was hard-hearted.

On one hand, this Abomination was still juvenile and hadn’t reached the completely out-of-control state like the previous occurrences.

On the other hand, as the director of the Lv Bao Bureau, he placed some hope in Lv Bai.

Minister Zhang shook his head, looking at the large screen where Lv Bai was already leading Captain Mao and the others out of the school building.

"That’s all we can do."

His tone unwittingly carried a bit of bitterness: "Look at Master Lv, he doesn’t have a better solution either."

...

Boom!!!

A bright blue lightning bolt shot out from Lv Bai’s palm, scorching part of the Abomination’s surface.

But that was the extent of the Palm Thunder’s effect.

Let alone injuring the Abomination, it couldn’t even slow its movement.

"This is troublesome,"

Lv Bai stopped on the open ground outside the school building, contemplating a strategy.

Maoshan Daoist Skill excels against Eastern-style anomalies, but against something like Abomination, it’s less effective than a high-caliber anti-material sniper rifle.

Captain Mao also noticed that Lv Bai’s previously unbeatable tactics against anomalies were ineffective against the Abomination.

He quickly shouted, "Master Lv, let’s take this chance to flee!"

Observer Chen, holding a camera, silently and faithfully recorded everything before him.

As for the construction worker-like Death Fighter, he was also part of the escape team with Lv Bai.

Perhaps to hide his abilities, he didn’t even attempt to attack the Abomination.

Bang~

The colossal, house-sized fleshy ball rolled off the school building’s second floor, tumbling twice on the ground.

After stopping, dozens of scarlet eyes looked intently at Lv Bai.

The Palm Thunder didn’t harm the Abomination but clearly enraged it.

"Damn it, I’m not playing with you anymore,"

Seeing the rapidly writhing, blood-red fleshy ball, the construction worker was startled and, without much thought, took off running.

Lv Bai glanced at the rapidly receding figure of the construction worker, hesitated no longer, and mentally recited: Read.

[Read complete, data: Bursting Qi (Gold)]

[Load data?]

Not having read this ability right away was mainly because it seemed of little use and there was no rush.

Now, with the construction worker planning to flee, Lv Bai thought it best to first enhance himself as much as possible.

[Bursting Qi (Gold): As a prerequisite for releasing a Super Special Move, it’s an essential combat technique for top Fighters, temporarily enhancing physical attributes by consuming physical strength.]

The construction worker didn’t notice his ability had vanished and continued running.

However, the Abomination, in its fleshy ball state, paid no attention to him and instead charged straight at Lv Bai.

The legs and arms covering the fleshy ball’s surface seemed to come alive, stretching stiffly forward, ready to grasp Lv Bai.

In this crisis, Lv Bai suddenly activated [Flash Time]; with the world momentarily frozen, he bent down, stepped forward with his right foot, and initiated [Bursting Qi].

A wave of bluish-green energy surged from his body.

Though the momentum seemed exaggerated, the actual damage was negligible.

However, Lv Bai hadn’t intended to rely on this golden ability to fight the bizarre fleshy ball.

Feeling the powerful burst of energy from [Bursting Qi], he formed the hand seal for Thunder Technique with both hands, pushing forward unreservedly to unleash Palm Thunder.

In the next moment,

under the gaze of Captain Mao, Observer Chen, and billions of viewers behind the screen,

a blinding bright blue aura seemed to appear out of nowhere between Lv Bai’s palm and the blood-red fleshy ball.

Boom!!!

A thunderous explosion on flat ground scattered flesh and blood everywhere.

The ferocious impact of the Palm Thunder suddenly halted the Abomination’s advance.

The inherent destructive power of the lightning caused a visible indentation in the fleshy ball.

Admittedly, against an anomaly like the Abomination, the evil-vanquishing attributes of Thunder Technique were ineffective.

But as long as the power was sufficient, the destructive effect of Thunderbolt remained formidable.

In an instant, thick black smoke rose, with the air filled with the smell of roasted meat and blood.

Upon witnessing this, viewers in the live broadcast room went wild.

"Wow, lightning!"

"Master Lv! We still have to trust Master Lv!"

"Did it work?"

"Hard to say, can’t see clearly at all."

Captain Mao, who witnessed the entire scene, was utterly speechless.

Even though he had long known Lv Bai could conjure up lightning, to see it at such power was truly incredible.

After unleashing this powerful Thunder Technique, Lv Bai turned and started running without any image concerns.

While running, he shouted at Captain Mao and Observer Chen, "What are you standing there for? Let’s go!"
