A sinister smile replaced the fear on the old man's face. Without hesitation, David's alloy dagger gleamed!"Splurt!" A thick black fluid sprayed from the old man's neck. His eyes widened as he stared at David, still wearing a chilling expression.

"My daughter... will kill... all of you..." The old man's Adam's apple moved as he mumbled incoherently. The next second, his entire head rolled on the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust. Some of the decayed spiderlings emerged slowly from his body.

At the same time, the hundreds of decayed spiders that had been entangled with Duke suddenly stopped their attack. Each trembling spider emitted a piercing noise. Then, their bodies suddenly exploded in a series of blasts, and their organs splattered on the surrounding rubble.

Clearly, there was a connection between these decayed spiders and the old man. As soon as the source was eliminated, they immediately perished. The air soon became filled with the pungent stench of decay, making it feel like standing among a heap of rotting flesh.

Meanwhile, Charles, whose body had been suspended in the air, suddenly landed. He opened his eyes, and a myriad of colorful stars shimmered in his gaze.

"How about it, have you traced the method to break the hypnotic technique?" David quickly asked.

Charles nodded. Using his celestial divination, he had traced some of the old man's vague memories, capturing the means to shatter the hypnotic spell. He walked up to Sally and Arnold, recalling the strange gesture of the old man in his mind, and slowly replicated it.

With a loud shout from Charles, the two of them jolted! Then, as if just waking up, they groggily opened their eyes.

"David, where is that old bastard? I want to kill him!" Arnold, just awakened, clenched his fists and said fiercely.

Sally, still with a frightened expression, recalled what had happened moments ago. Obviously, they had only been hypnotized by the old man, while their consciousness remained awake.

Seeing that Sally was only slightly shaken and unharmed, David felt relieved. He turned to Arnold and said, "That guy has been taken care of." Hearing David's words, Arnold finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At that moment, Charles furrowed his brow and wore a puzzled expression as he walked up to David. He said, "When I was tracing the old man's memories, I seemed to have glimpsed the shadow of a woman in a red robe. It felt like she noticed me and kept coldly smiling at me."

"A woman in a red robe?" Charles's words immediately heightened David's attention. He recalled that before he killed the old man, he had repeatedly mentioned his daughter seeking revenge. Could this woman in the red robe be the old man's daughter? David speculated.

"Can you sense her level of strength?" David asked Charles.

Charles shook his head and said, "Her power is terrifying. Just a single glance sent shivers down my spine. If I hadn't closed my eyes in time, I might have been crushed by her gaze alone." Hearing Charles's terrifying description, everyone felt a tinge of fear. To be able to crush Charles within his celestial divination was truly a horrifying existence.

David nodded, understanding that this woman in the red robe was a formidable individual, likely at least Level 7 or higher. Without dwelling on it further, David prepared to lead the team out of this place. It was too dangerous here, and if that woman in the red robe appeared, David believed she would be a formidable opponent.I think you should take a look at

Just as they boarded the armored vehicle, a colder and more chilling gust of wind suddenly swept through! Within this cold breeze, there was even a faint floral scent mixed with the lingering stench of decay, instantly making everyone tense.

"Killing my father and thinking you can leave? Well, then you can all stay as my dinner." Suddenly! A seductive voice emerged from the cold wind, followed by a vague red figure appearing before them.

"Oh my god! What is happening?" Arnold was shocked by the sudden appearance.

David didn't hesitate and immediately stepped on the accelerator. The armored vehicle let out a deep roar and swiftly drove in the direction they came from. In that voice from earlier, David distinctly felt an immensely formidable aura. This allowed him to quickly determine that the newcomer was an eighth-level being.

At the same time, David knew that the opponent was not human but a revenant. In other words, she was an eighth-level revenant. This made David extra cautious.

In this apocalypse, reaching the eighth level as an esper was already a formidable existence. Those at the tenth level or even god-level were like lords of the apocalypse! However, to this day, David had not encountered an esper above the eighth level. The god-level existed only in legends.

Meanwhile, the level of revenants matched that of espers, and their strength naturally surpassed that of espers of the same level. That was why, upon sensing this aura, David chose to leave. The first rule of survival in the apocalypse was self-preservation.

In David's own words, it was about ensuring there were green mountains left, not fearing a lack of firewood. The armored vehicle continued to race forward, and the red figure slowly materialized in the thick mist. It was the same red-robed woman that Charles had seen during his divination. She gazed at the dismembered body of the deceased old man, her face filled with a tinge of sorrow.

Then, she lifted her head and looked in the direction David had left, speaking fiercely, "Killing my father, you all... will die!"

Within the ruins, a slightly elderly figure leaned on a cane, standing to the side. He watched the Embers Squad depart and sneered. The dragon-headed cane in his hand gradually revealed a layer of blue flames.

"You think you can just leave like that? You underestimate her power too much." A cold wind blew, instantly dispersing the thick mist surrounding the figure. Alvin stood there with a smile.

Indeed, Alvin has managed to summon this father-daughter duo. "You're quite ruthless!" Another ethereal figure beside him laughed.

"Alexander, this time, no matter what, I will kill this young man named David. Then, leave the position of Phoenix Rising Squad Captain to me." Alvin spoke to the shadowy figure.

"Hahaha! Alvin, you're exaggerating! Your business is my business. After all, we're partners, aren't we? Without you, I wouldn't have unlocked the Second Crimson Radiance so quickly. Don't forget, we're on the same boat, hehehe..." Alvin chuckled lightly, listening to Alexander's words.
