Leng Ran spread her mental energy across the entire room but found nothing unusual. According to Mei Meng, there should be another spider lily hidden in the laboratory next door, but her mental energy couldn't penetrate the walls to investigate the room.

It seems that, like the abandoned factory, this place also uses valuable mental energy isolation materials.

"Don't make any sudden moves, watch out for the ceiling," Meimeng said. "It looks like someone's there."

Leng Ran glanced at the ceiling with a mixture of disbelief and skepticism. As always, it was covered with the pattern of red spider lilies, and he found nothing suspicious.

Even her mental power couldn't sense someone hiding there, so how did she discover Mei Meng, who was thousands of miles away?

Although it was strange, Leng Ran stopped at the door and did not go in, just to be on the safe side.

"Since you already know why I'm here, I won't say any more." Leng Ran put his right hand, which was holding the gun, behind his back. "As colleagues, I'll give you a chance to end your own life."

Leng Ran didn't think that the Spider Lily would really surrender. After a brief eye contact, the Spider Lily casually picked up a wine glass and smashed it on the ground.

The wine glass shattered with a crack, and Leng Ran immediately turned her gaze to the ceiling, but nothing happened.

The red spider lily bent down and picked up a shard of glass. The sharp shard cut her palm, and blood flowed down the glass, dripping onto her red dress.

“My life is insignificant. If the divine messengers want it, I will give it to you without hesitation, but…” The Spider Lily gripped the shard of glass tightly, “not now!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the patterns on the ceiling came to life, quickly assembling into two oddly shaped machine guns. A burst of dense bullets poured out like a torrential rain, wildly spraying bullets at Leng Ran!

Those aren't patterns, but gun parts disguised as patterns!

The hovering device activated, and Leng Ran, who was prepared, immediately slipped behind the side wall by the door. Bullets grazed her clothes and struck the floor where she had just stood, leaving a series of bullet holes.

The machine gun stopped firing, and two red laser sights appeared, aimed at the edge of the side wall where Leng Ran was hiding.

This is a naked threat.

He said in a low, cold voice, "Dream, can you hack those two machine guns?"

"Oh, so you remember me now." Meimeng's voice was somewhat nonchalant. "Go ahead, I'm all set."

The red laser disappeared, and Leng Ran flew out from her hiding place. In the instant she passed the doorway, she raised the pistol hidden in her right hand, pulled the trigger, and a bullet cut through the air, flying towards the heart of the spider lily!

At the critical moment, the ceiling suddenly split in two, and a thick panel fell from the middle, perfectly blocking the bullet that was flying towards the other shore flower.

The barrier smashed through the floor, sending up clouds of dust that completely obscured the spider lilies. A glimmer of blue light appeared from the rising dust, and the next second, a figure in black burst through the barrier, a pale blue light blade aimed straight at the cold, imposing facade!

There really are people hiding!

Leng Ran suddenly leaned back, a blue-glowing heat beam grazing her mask. A strong burning sensation shot through her cheek, and the stinging pain spread rapidly. Leng Ran frowned, then performed a backflip, bracing herself with one hand, and kicked at the shadowy figure's chin.

The kick missed its mark. The opponent withdrew without lingering, using the hovercraft to fly backward and return to the spot where the barrier had fallen, maintaining a safe distance from Leng Ran.

"Hmm? You didn't pursue them to the end?" Meimeng seemed to be implying something. "Very cautious. Have you two clashed before?"

As the smoke and dust settled, a pure black, faceless mask appeared before her eyes, seemingly capable of swallowing up all the surrounding light.

He narrowed his eyes coldly, and his right hand quietly gripped the hilt of Blazing Sun.

It really is an old rival, Blade.

"Cough cough...B01?" The Spider Lily stood up somewhat disheveled from the dust. "No...no, you're not one of mine. Who are you!"

Blade pointed to the hole in the ceiling. "Why don't you look up?"

A drop of cool liquid fell onto the face of the spider lily, startling her, and she unconsciously looked up.

A cyborg head stared blankly at her, the blood vessels in its neck neatly severed, occasionally flashing with tiny sparks of electricity. Circulatory fluid flowed down the severed neck, sliding along the edge of the opening and finally hitting her face.

The red spider lily wiped its face in disgust, took a few steps back, and avoided the cave entrance.

"Hmph, you decapitator, when did you get in here?" the other shore flower gritted her teeth and said, "You dare to stand here so brazenly, do you think you can leave alive?"

"The judge has come to kill you, why are you still so loyal?" Blade brandished the light blade in his right hand. "How about we make a deal?"

He interrupted coldly, saying, "A dying man has no right to talk about deals."

The lightsaber Blazing Sun was coldly drawn, bursting forth with a dazzling light, its golden blade carrying an intense sharpness as it charged toward the blade!

We can't let Ren continue talking! If we can save his life here, we can pin the blame for the lost auction item firmly on him.

After all, there is no evidence in death.

Blazing sun swept out, aiming straight for Ren's throat! Ren was prepared, and immediately held his light blade in front of him, managing to block the sword.

This sword strike appeared light and agile, but in reality, it was incredibly powerful. Ren felt as if a ferocious beast had pounced on his light blade. The force was so great that he had to retreat five steps before he could barely dissipate the power.

"Your strength has increased?" Blade's eyes gradually became serious. "It hasn't been long, and you've already improved again."

Leng Ran gave Ren no chance to breathe, unleashing all his deadly moves. Ren, equally unyielding, fought Leng Ran to a standstill, sparks flying as their swords clashed. In just one minute, the two had already exchanged dozens of blows!

If Leng Ran was previously lacking in strength and needed to make up for it with rich combat skills, after breaking through to the sixth level of physique, her physical qualities were improved in all aspects, and her overall strength was raised to a new level.

She used to have to trade blows with Shang Ren, but now she has the upper hand!

A single point of sword light, and every move is deadly!

Under the relentless and fierce onslaught, Ren could only defend passively. Cold sweat had soaked through his back, and even the hand holding the knife was trembling almost imperceptibly.

This can't go on, but he still has another fighting force by his side!

The light blade blocked the blazing sun once more. Leng Ran pressed down hard, and just as the tip of the sword was about to slice through the mask, two darts suddenly flew out from his sleeves and shot towards Leng Ran's heart.

Leng Ran withdrew the Blazing Sun and dodged to the right, giving Ren a chance to catch his breath.

"Higanbana, how about we join forces?" Blade glanced at Higanbana out of the corner of his eye. "Kill the Judge, and you can join us. I will protect you. Our leader and divine messengers are different; they welcome scientific talents like you."

Although the Red Spider Lily herself has no combat ability, the cyborg army behind her is still not to be underestimated.

What puzzled Leng Ran was that she and Ren had been exchanging blows for so long, yet Bi An Hua hadn't made a single move. Apart from B01, who was killed by Ren, not a single cyborg soldier had appeared.

Meanwhile, Zhuoleng and the others who were ordered to clear the area upstairs have not yet arrived... Surely they're not just going to watch these spider lilies die?

"My mission is about to be completed. This world will no longer have any meaning for me!" The familiar, cold madness reappeared in the eyes of the other shore flower. "Of course, before I go to my destruction, I want you to die."

"If you hadn't stolen all the divine artifacts, causing me to lose the divine messenger's trust, why would he suddenly want to kill me!"

Ren was taken aback: "You mean, I stole it?"

Shouldn't everything be with the judge?

A flash of inspiration crossed Ren's mind, but before he could think it through, Leng Ran's sword stabbed at him again. Ren immediately assumed a defensive stance, but Leng Ran only feinted with his sword before passing by him and heading straight for the spider lily behind him!

The blazing sun pierced the heart of the spider lily without any resistance, the tip of the sword emerging from her back. The surrounding flesh melted rapidly under the blazing sun's heat, leaving a horrifying hole in her chest.

All sounds ceased abruptly. The expression on the spider lily's face, which held a hint of madness, froze completely, while the corpse lay powerless on the ground like a withered flower.

"Eliminate one." He turned back coldly, glancing indifferently at Ren. "Next, it's your turn."
