Chapter 25: Firefly Beats the Red Light Progenitor

"Director Bai, 'Hope Town: Elizabeth Greene,' who was being held in the Gentek laboratory, has suddenly awakened!"

The other end of the walkie-talkie brought Meng Yi another 'surprise' just after he recruited Alex.

The sound from the walkie-talkie, besides the 'surprise,' also included the roaring of guns, the roars of super soldiers, and the screams of monsters.

Meng Yi's expression remained unmoved, and he went straight to the point: "Are you sure you can suppress it?"

"Forget it."

Just after asking, Meng Yi gave up the idea of counting on the Blackwatch super soldiers. His mental field spread overwhelmingly, and a highly concentrated spiritual body appeared in Meng Yi's mental vision.

'Target locked, secondary lock confirmed—'

'Psionic Interference: Wide-Area Mental Impact!'

Several kilometers away, Meng Yi didn't say a word and started by shooting dense mental blades.

"Roar—!!!"

The sound from the walkie-talkie became more complex. The Red Light Virus Progenitor, having encountered a mental impact, let out a shrill scream that didn't sound human, but it resisted Meng Yi's wave of mental impact and did not fall.

"Director Bai, I don't know what happened just now, but 'Elizabeth Greene' is fleeing outside at all costs!"

Meng Yi frowned slightly; the distance was too far, and his state hadn't recovered to its peak.

The mental attack that should have been able to crash the mental state of the Red Light Progenitor only made it go berserk.

"Hold on, reinforcements are coming."

"At all costs, even if all of you die, you must drag 'Hope Town: Elizabeth Greene' down for me!"

At the other end of the walkie-talkie, the super soldiers who were fighting the Red Light Virus Progenitor nodded fiercely and answered sonorously.

"Yes, sir!"

After hanging up the call, Meng Yi continued to torture the Red Light Progenitor's mental logic with continuous mental impacts, while turning to look at Firefly not far behind him, and said: "I need to trouble you for a favor."

"Go suppress 'Hope Town: Elizabeth Greene,' who has started a riot. Can you do it?"

Firefly gave a standard Blackwatch military salute, her face serious: "No problem! Guarantee to complete the mission!"

Having eaten and lived for free for so long, how could she not help out?

Alex, who had just joined Meng Yi's command, wanted to say that he could also help.

But he saw the cracks on the silver-haired girl's body blooming with brilliant light, and cyan high-temperature flames lingering around her, forming a pair of flame wings behind her back.

Following the prompts from the communication equipment, Firefly identified the direction, and her flame wings shook violently. The flames surrounding her body directly melted the reinforced concrete walls of the apartment into red-hot fluid, and the silver-haired girl in a combat suit flew into the high sky.

Ma He 1, Ma He 2, Ma He 3, Ma He 4, Ma He 5.

Circles of Ma He rings exploded one after another behind her as she broke the sound barrier, and the glass of the surrounding high-rise buildings shattered.

Whether it was the infected catalyzed by the Red Light Progenitor or the Blackwatch soldiers fighting the infected, all were suppressed to the ground by the high-strength wind pressure of her passing, unable to move.

'A-Man,' no, 'Little A,' who had come back to his senses, smacked his lips.

"O god! Is this still human? Who exactly is the monster!"

Meng Yi rubbed his somewhat stiff cheeks and boasted: "See that? This is my technology! And the new humans of the future!"

Hearing this, Alex was shocked and looked at Meng Yi as if he were looking at God descending to the world in mythology.

"Boss, it has to be you! I, Alex, am convinced!"

Meng Yi waved his hand modestly and continued to put gold on his face shamelessly.

"A trivial matter, not worth mentioning."

Although he had estimated Firefly's combat power, seeing it happen before his eyes still made Meng Yi stunned for a moment, and he could only explain it with 'a thin camel is bigger than a horse.'

……

The cyan flame beam flew at supersonic speed, and the carried high temperature distorted the air.

It was like an unstoppable spear thrown by a giant, and like a Sword of Damocles falling from the sky.

Finally, it easily pierced through the outer layer of the Gentek building several kilometers away and nailed the pile of disorderly distorted flesh and blood to the surface.

As the smoke dissipated, the human form of the Red Light Progenitor no longer existed, turning into a tentacle monster made of ferocious flesh and blood, more than ten meters tall. Most of the proliferating tentacles were burned to ashes by Firefly, looking extremely miserable.

"Are you the enemy? You ugly bad guy!"

"Roar—!"

Answering Firefly was a scream of extreme anger.

The instinct to survive made the Red Light Progenitor, which had long since lost its sanity under the round of mental impacts, launch a desperate counterattack. The monster's leg bones, which were inconvenient to move, grew dense bone-like leg structures at high speed, and its body, which was more than ten meters tall, jumped high, opening its ferocious giant mouth, intending to swallow, chew, digest, and absorb Firefly!

'Command: Flash Burn Propulsion!'

"Directive: Flash-Ignition Propulsion!"

"Boom—!!"

Firefly, stepping on fire, shattered a head-like structure of the Red Light Progenitor with one punch, and the cyan flames followed the trend and spread.

Without sufficient 'nutrients,' this battle was impossible to fight.

The Red Light Progenitor cut off its tail to survive, actively abandoning the outer flesh and blood ignited by the flames on its body, and jumped out of the distorted meat block with a more flexible new body, running wildly toward the outside of the Gentek building.

One exchange made the Red Light Progenitor understand that it had to eat more flesh and blood to fight a war of attrition with the enemy, otherwise it would be easily beaten to death.

"Want to run? You can't run!"

Firefly's fair palm grabbed an exoskeleton horn of the five-meter-tall ferocious monster, her slender arm muscles exerted a little force, and she directly pressed the monster to the ground, unable to move.

One punch!

The Red Light Progenitor struggled to resist.

Two punches!

The Red Light Progenitor wanted to repeat the same trick.

Three punches!

The Red Light Progenitor was gasping for breath, with more air going in than coming out, and was beaten into a coma by Firefly.

This was not an evenly matched battle at all; this was an absolute one-sided abuse.

……

Not long after, Meng Yi, Alex, General Randall, and others arrived at the scene.

The internal structure of the Gentek building had been devastated by the monster-level confrontation just now, with only a few load-bearing columns still persisting.

Fortunately, due to Meng Yi's orders a few hours ago, the ordinary people of Gentek had been forcibly evacuated, leaving only super soldiers to guard the Red Light Progenitor, so there were no major casualties.

One by one, the gray-faced super soldiers crawled out of the ruins, all of them doubting life because of the astonishing combat power Firefly had erupted.

"Reporting to Sir, the mission is complete! Please inspect!"

Firefly dissipated the high-temperature flames and jumped off the Red Light Progenitor with light steps. Before leaving, she seemed to find her opponent too disgusting and kicked the Red Light Progenitor twice more.

The combat suit on her body didn't know what material it was made of, but it was still intact until now. ===== CHAPTER 26 =====

The material of the combat suit she was wearing was unknown, but it remained completely undamaged even now.
