Chapter 767: Two Domains?

"It’s over."

The cellist stood up slowly, seemingly unsurprised by the fate of the car and the three people inside.

"This is Wolf Hunter 3, this is Wolf Hunter 3... Received, please reply."

"I hear you."

"Confirming communication restored."

"I’ve killed the people for you... Next, you can clean it up yourselves."

"Received, confirmed target has been waist-cut, approaching the target..."

The black convoy and the group of armed helicopters filling the sky swarmed past the cellist, heading toward the sports car that had been cut in two.

The dust raised by the convoy engulfed the cellist. He brushed the dust off his clothes with disgust and was about to leave,

Suddenly, an inexplicably eerie aura erupted behind him!

"...Oh?"

The cellist frowned and looked back.

"This is Wolf Hunter 3... We... this..."

"What’s going on? What happened?" Shielded by the convoy, the cellist couldn't see what was happening in the distance at all.

"That car... in the blink of an eye, it’s become completely intact again?!"

"What??"

The cellist was stunned. He grabbed an off-road vehicle passing by in disbelief, flipped nimbly onto the roof, and looked toward that direction from afar!

He saw at the end of the horizon, a red sports car speeding toward the city, completely intact!!

"How is this possible???" The cellist’s eyes widened. "It had clearly been cut... And who is driving that car?"

"It’s still those three people."

The voice on the other side of the walkie-talkie paused for a moment, seemingly unable to accept it either. "They... they all lived?"

“？？？”

……

Hum hum hum—

Inside the roaring sports car.

"Are they crazy??" Lu Xun looked out the window, his pupils reflecting the shattered earth and flying dust, and said in a low voice,

"This level of destruction... it looks like they don't intend to leave us a way to live."

Yang Xiao also frowned,

"They even deployed missiles, is it really necessary??"

The familiar dialogue repeated in his ears. Chen Ling, who was driving, felt a splitting headache...

Strange...

Why does this dialogue sound familiar?

What happened just now... I just feel like something isn't quite right?

Chen Ling felt as if he had forgotten something, but his head was splitting with pain, as weak as if his spiritual energy had been overdrawn, and he couldn't remember at all... His attention was entirely on the road leading to the city. Ignoring everything else, he gritted his teeth and stepped on the accelerator to the floor, and the car sped forward at full speed amidst the roar!

He broke through the Domain just like that, and also broke out of the unfinished encirclement, plunging headlong into the torrent of the city along the modern road filled with streetlights.

……

"This is Wolf Hunter 3... Target confirmed to have fully resurrected and entered the city limits."

"Terminate the motorcade and armed containment immediately! Disable all weapons of mass destruction; we cannot attract public attention, let alone cause casualties!"

"Then what do we do? Just let that thing slip into the city?"

"High-ranking 'White Hands' from the three surrounding provinces are all rushing to Shanghai. Many have already reached the city limits; they will continue to carry out the containment mission... However, the form will shift from a siege to an assassination.

Under this inescapable net, he cannot escape."

"Copy that."

Upon receiving the order, all armed helicopters hovered in the air before flying away from the city. The motorcade carrying a large number of personnel also made a mid-way turn and vanished beyond the horizon.

On the devastated land, only the Virtuoso remained, frowning as he watched the direction in which Chen Ling had departed.

"Just now... was that a Domain?"

"No, that's not right... If it were a Domain... it wasn't complete enough... And besides, the Domain he used earlier wasn't this one, was it?"

"In this world, could there really be someone capable of having two Domains??"

……

As the roaring sports car entered the city limits and merged into the surging traffic, the hearts of Lu Xun and Yang Xiao finally settled.

"They shouldn't be able to follow us here, right?"

"Hard to say... If they are truly determined to kill me, even without those modern weapons, they will find other ways." Chen Ling looked back at the wilderness under the night sky, his expression extremely grave.

He turned the steering wheel and dove straight into the nearest underground garage. While disabling all surveillance equipment, he began to reshape the vehicle's exterior.

"By the way, did you two feel anything wrong just now?" Chen Ling couldn't help but ask.

"What do you mean, wrong?"

"It's just... it felt like the world glitched? No, I should say... the plot was tampered with?"

Lu Xun and Yang Xiao exchanged glances, seemingly unable to understand what Chen Ling was talking about.

"Haven't we been under pursuit the whole time?" Yang Xiao recalled. "That fleet of planes was raining missiles down on us, then you, Director Chen, took action and shot them down, and then we just broke through the encirclement and arrived here."

"Then how did the land become like that just a moment ago?"

"This... perhaps it was because of the missiles?"

Chen Ling didn't answer. He always felt as if he had forgotten something very important, and why his mental energy had been instantly overdrawn was also a mystery.

Chen Ling went through three different underground parking lots, changing the vehicle's exterior and license plates three times. By the time it finally drove out of the garage, it had become an old Wuling Hongguang.

"You two can't follow me anymore," Chen Ling said seriously.

"Since they are coming for me, I expect there will be a constant stream of killing moves ahead... There's no need for you two to get dragged into this. Leave quickly before they find me."

Neither Lu Xun nor Yang Xiao were stupid; they immediately understood what Chen Ling meant. Their personal safety was one aspect, but more importantly, their current ranks were not high enough. Acting alongside Chen Ling might only make them a burden.

"Understood." Lu Xun nodded slightly. "Then we'll find a place to hide. Once everything settles down, we'll come find you."

"Good."

"Also... regarding the reward, you haven't mentioned it yet." Lu Xun suddenly spoke up, as if remembering something.

Lu Xun wanted to ask Chen Ling to protect the other Nine Lords and had promised a reward. Furthermore, Chen Ling had risked his life to save him from Director Zheng, a debt of gratitude he kept in his heart.

"Reward..." Chen Ling narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Yes, how much money do you need? Or, is there something you need us to do for you?"

"Actually, it's quite simple. I only have one request." Chen Ling slowly extended a finger. "Dr. Lu, I want to know some information."

"What kind of information?"

"About you."

"...Me?"

"For example..." Chen Ling paused for a moment. "If... I mean if, in the future, you were to build a city using your knowledge of astrophysics... what would it look like in your mind?"
