New Gods of North America.

Chapter 386 Fortunately
"Bam—"

When Wayne "broke out of the cocoon" from the "Pansy Cave", the "blue bar" in his body had almost dropped by 70%.

These "spider silks" are not lethal or corrosive.
But it was like a wire that could quickly absorb the spiritual power in Wayne's body.

The spiritual power "used" through extraordinary abilities is not exactly the same as the spiritual power "originally contained" in the body.
Part of Wayne's spiritual power was sucked away, part of it was actively transmitted through the "explosion" ability, and part of it was used for self-defense against the "explosion".

In the end, I feel that this thing cannot be considered to have been "killed" by Wayne. It is more like it failed to successfully take root and sprout in Wayne's "soil", lost its subsequent source of spiritual power, and was slowly "exhausted to death".

Stay away from "bamboo shoots" and deal with "skin bags".
The agents gradually succeeded in dealing with "Starfish".

There may be some misunderstanding on Connor's part. He saw that Wayne was also from the Hunter Association and was a partner of the detective agency.
He was so brave that he took the initiative to fight that "skin" in close combat.
So he seemed to be greatly motivated and began to try to "dance on the edge of the knife" with the "starfish".

After they had probably finished cleaning up the "starfish" - not sure, but after a certain number of "starfish" were killed, the rest of the "starfish" all fell to the ground and gradually became unable to jump up - Wayne and his men threw a wave of high explosives at the "bamboo shoots".
Then, seeing that its roots seemed to have become weak, it stopped fighting and chose to continue supporting other teams.

Looking up at the roof of the detective agency's warehouse, the warning braziers representing "middle road" have all been extinguished.

Wayne, whose clothes were tattered but still barely covered his body, shouted a few words. Willy on the roof picked up a large wooden lid and put it on the brazier representing the "right road".
Only the last of the three braziers was left, which meant that there was no danger here, but it had not been cleaned up yet.

The battle area before the "middle road" was marked by "whale oil" at several places.
Wayne and the others did not get closer, but circled in that direction and ran to the "left side" where the three lights in the brazier were still fully lit.

The battle here was actually coming to an end. Doug Owl's "air support" had come before, and Lina and the others had "arrived later".
Here, a skeleton taller than an average person, with "corals" and "seaweed" growing all over its body, has completely fallen to the ground.
His body was covered with all kinds of wounds, he was lying in a "swamp" and a sea of fire, and he was entangled by Lina's wire.

This guy also looked like an animal that was impossible to communicate with.

It feels like if you get a little closer, it will bite you before it dies.

In terms of strength alone, tonight's group is indeed stronger than the previous one... but not as strong as the three "roadblocks" from the past few days.

The only enemies who could still communicate were the two dying ones.

These two guys must have fallen into Lina's special trap. Parts of their bodies were pierced by iron nails, making them look like cacti.
However, because of this, the bottles of medicine on them were shattered at that time. They probably didn't have time to drink the medicine and have survived until now.

One of the guys had a stronger desire to survive. He seemed to have witnessed with his own eyes the tragic scene of a companion being "devoured" by another alienated companion.

His heart was broken and he kept begging for mercy, hoping that everyone could rescue him quickly.

The other guy looked even more blood-losing and looked like he was dying, but he was still swearing and cursing.

Wayne felt that such a guy would still drool all day long even if he was rescued.
Seeing that one of the agents had raised his gun and was ready to kill him, he turned his head away.

The other party could tell that Wayne was the person in charge of the scene. After noticing that Wayne had turned his head away, his "swearing" turned into a weird "yin-yang" laugh.

Wayne was familiar with this routine, and he raised his hand to stop the agent from pulling the trigger.

Looking back at the guy, "Do you have any backup plan?"

The other person's face was covered in blood, but he still managed to put on an ugly smile:
"Your people should all be here, right? Didn't you notice that one of our members is missing?" At this late hour, you all look like unrecognizable people.

I don't know how many of you there are.

Wayne glanced at the faces of several members nearby, then turned his gaze towards the detective agency. Everyone was shaking their heads uncertainly, but Damon MacCready was relatively more certain:
"I was just standing guard at the back, and no one from their side approached the detective agency."

Too,

The owl is still flying in the sky. If there is an enemy approaching at this moment, there is no reason why the stupid bird should not call.

"what."

The guy's mouth was already full of blood, but he still said stubbornly, "Your yard is surrounded by land on three sides. There is no one on the land, but do you really think that no one can cross the river directly?"

grass……

These guys all look weird, but I didn't expect there are even "fish" among them.
Or maybe it’s a fucking “crocodile”!
When Lina and several relatively powerful agents heard this, they immediately followed Wayne to the detective agency.
Don't be busy chopping melons and vegetables on the "front line" while your "base camp" is stolen by the enemy.

And the cabins of several partners are located closest to the interior.
On the contrary, it is the closest to the river...

Wayne just rushed back to the courtyard and saw the scene where the cabin where Inissa was collapsed.

A green-skinned creature with webbed feet and gills was "swept" out of the cabin through the wall by countless scarlet filaments with great force.

These filaments appear thin and fragile, but when they brush against the opponent, they are like countless extremely sharp "little saw blades".
Not only does it cut the meat into pieces as fast as a hot knife through butter, but it also turns the meat slices and grains into "meat paste" visibly.
It also seems to be able to take away the opponent's blood, making itself more "slender".

Then a large section of the wall was swept away,
The cabin also collapsed.

Faced with the sudden burst of powerful spiritual pressure, several agents couldn't help but pause.
Wayne and Lina rushed over and rummaged through the wreckage of the cabin before finally finding her where the bathtub had been.

The restraints on Inissa's body seemed to be tightened, and the direction of the blood vessels on her wet, slender neck could be vaguely seen.
At this moment, she was just like she had been after many other "outbursts", with her arms tightly clasped, her body hunched and her brows furrowed, and she was speechless for a moment when faced with questions.

The only thing to be thankful for was that Lina found the broken potion bottle in the meat paste outside the house.
The wax seal on the bottle was still intact, and the amount of medicine spilled on the ground did not seem to have decreased much.

At least this guy hasn't remembered to take the medicine beforehand.
otherwise……

Finally, Lina gave up her own cabin.

I temporarily prepared some medicine in the bathtub to help Inissa relieve her condition.

The detectives continued to clean up the scene with lingering fear.

Only Liam was still acting funny. “Is the threshold for becoming a partner in your detective agency so high…?”
