The soldiers fired relentlessly, injuring and killing almost all of the gang members. Not far away, Yao Ran summoned vines with her wood element energy. The vines shot toward the remaining gang members, who were trying to run away.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
As the vines wrapped around them, the gang members cursed and struggled to break free.
Realizing they couldn't escape, one of them shouted, "Brothers, do it now!"
Hearing this, Long Yu's eyes flickered in alarm. "Ran Ran, take cover!" he said as he ran toward Yao Ran.
Seeing that those gang members had taken something out of their pockets, Shi Xuan acted quickly. He waved his hands and teleporting all the gang members into the air. A second later, they exploded the moment they appeared in the air.
Boom!
Below, Long Yu shielded Yao Ran with his body, using his wind element ability to create a protective barrier around them. At the same time, Shi Xuan and the soldiers hurried toward the villas to take cover.
Moments later, blood and body parts rained down, covering the ground with blood and
burned flesh. Long Yu pulled Yao Ran to take cover in their villa while waiting for everything to calm down.
Two minutes later, Yao Ran spoke. "Let's go and take a look."
"Alright," Long Yu replied.
When the two walked out from their hiding place, Shi Xuan approached them and asked, "Are you guys alright?"
Yao Ran nodded. "Yes. How about you?"
"I'm fine," Shi Xuan replied.
Looking at the mess on the ground, Yao Ran said, "Fortunately, you reacted quickly. Otherwise, the explosion might have killed many people nearby."
Shi Xuan nodded in agreement. "These people really dare to do anything."
While they were talking, Long Yu inspected the remains scattered on the ground. Spotting something reflecting the street lamp's light, he moved closer to investigate.
He picked up the item and examined it. When he saw the image engraved on it, his expression changed.
Noticing that Long Yu only stood there in silence, Yao Ran and Shi Xuan approached him.
"Did you find something?" Yao Ran asked curiously.
Long Yu handed her the item and said, "Take a look at this."
Yao Ran took the object and inspected it carefully. When she saw the familiar insignia, her eyes flickered with murderous intent.
"It's the badge worn by the members of The Ark," she said after a long silence.
Hearing this, Shi Xuan frowned. "Looks like they are coming for you, Yao Ran."
