Chapter 303: Coming Right To The Door
The dazzling blue-white glow of the Spirit Bomb illuminated the entire Containment Center as bright as daylight.
“What is that?!”
“So blinding!”
“What’s going on? Why is it still growing bigger?”
In fact, not only were the civilians in the Containment Center shocked by this Spirit Bomb.
Even Lu Bai, the instigator, stared at the massive energy light sphere above his head in a daze.
From the moment he used the [Spirit Bomb] ability, the condensing light sphere began to expand rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, the diameter of this Spirit Bomb exceeded one kilometer and was still continuing to expand.
Needless to say, it was no different from hand-rubbing a sun.
Lu Bai blinked his slightly sore eyes: “Everyone is really enthusiastic.”
Thanks to the special energy source of the Spirit Bomb, Lu Bai maintained this massive energy effortlessly.
But he did not let this Spirit Bomb continue to expand unchecked and decisively ended the energy gathering.
Anyway, it was just to deal with one Anomaly; continuing to enhance it would be a waste.
Lu Bai slowly pressed his hands down, controlling this Spirit Bomb with a diameter exceeding one kilometer to smash toward High Official Big Face.
Such a massive light sphere falling from the sky brought an extremely strong sense of oppression.
A considerable number of civilians still surviving in various parts of the Containment Center were terrified by this scene, their livers and gallbladders splitting; many were so frightened that they collapsed to the ground on their butts, with cries of alarm rising everywhere.
However, no matter what reactions there were from all sides, it would not affect the descent of the Spirit Bomb.
The imagined intense explosion did not occur; instead, it was somewhat like nourishing things silently.
The civilians covered by the Spirit Bomb not only did not die but even felt warm and cozy all over under the embrace of what seemed like endless energy.
Of course, High Official Big Face, the attack target of the Spirit Bomb, did not have it so easy.
The massive Spirit Bomb made it as if it were being washed by a surge of energy tides; its deformed body collapsed and disintegrated at a visible speed.
Rumble!!!
Even though the Spirit Bomb itself was not the type of extremely destructive energy, it was ultimately gathered from an incalculable amount of vital energy; the ground and various buildings were still blasted into smoke and scattered, while the ordinary civilians within the attack scope of the Spirit Bomb were unharmed.
The terrifying vibrations, like a super earthquake, lasted for a full dozens of seconds before completely subsiding.
As the Spirit Bomb completely sank into the ground, the Anomaly named High Official Big Face disappeared completely without a trace, not even leaving a shred of debris.
The originally flat ground seemed as if a giant had scooped a spoonful out of it; from a high vantage point, one could clearly see a huge semicircular Indentation.
Three staff members acting as the film crew carried cameras and stood behind Lu Bai, all staring dumbfounded at the scene before them, as if in a dream.
Was this something a human could do?!
The livestream room at this moment was also in deathly silence.
Countless netizens stared extremely synchronously at the screen in the livestream room, their expressions frozen.
It was worth mentioning that this righteous ability of the Spirit Bomb would not suck people dry like Demonic Path cultivation techniques.
If not careful, one might not even realize their vital energy had been absorbed, at most feeling a bit more tired than usual.
This led to the fact that although Lu Bai kept saying to lend him power, the civilians watching the livestream would not think this Spirit Bomb was made by them.
Behind Lu Bai and the others, the Temporary Command Building had windows crowded with onlookers.
Minister Zhang’s complexion flushed red as he smashed a fist on the window frame, unable to suppress his inner excitement.
He took a deep breath, turned to a middle-aged high-level official present, and said: “Committee Member Meng, go activate the broadcast authority. Make sure to notify everyone up and down the Containment Center, have the civilians preserve themselves as much as possible and wait patiently for rescue.”
At first, they thought it was just a suicidal mission, thinking that even if they died, they had to make the Anomaly feel pain.
But now it seemed that suppressing the Anomaly’s full-scale attack was not completely hopeless.
After all, Master Lu had clearly become stronger now.
“So amazing……”
Captain Mao looked at Lu Bai with admiration, subconsciously wanting to give him the highest respect: “Master Lu, what do we do next?”
“Find the next Anomaly.”
Lu Bai replied while looking down at his right hand.
He clenched his five fingers into a fist and then spread them open, repeating this, seemingly confirming the consumption after using the Spirit Bomb once.
Clap~ clap~ clap~
A metallic collision sound with a hint of mockery rang out, instantly attracting everyone’s attention present.
Lu Bai looked up and saw a tall figure wearing a brown-black top hat and a red-green striped sweater.
The other had no right hand, replaced by an Iron Claw made of some unknown metal.
No wonder it was applauding but making metallic collision sounds.
“Why bother looking? Haven’t I come myself?”
Except for Lu Bai, anyone who clearly saw this Anomaly’s appearance had a drastic change in complexion.
Captain Mao’s pupils contracted, his teeth chattering slightly: “Sequence 04—Freddy.”
Sequence does not represent the strength of the Anomaly but mainly its threat to humanity as a whole.
Because the main characteristic of this Anomaly Freddy is liking to kill in dreams.
After all, humans cannot avoid sleeping, meaning everyone could potentially be killed by Freddy at night.
Therefore, in the official think tank’s judgment, Freddy possessed the ability to destroy all of human civilization single-handedly.
Freddy walked out from the shadow of the building; one could clearly notice that its skin exposed to the air had been burned by fire, full of pits and hollows; just this appearance was scalp-numbing.
It slightly bowed toward Lu Bai, its posture quite elegant.
“I saw that energy ball just now; the power you possess is truly terrifying. No wonder the Plague Doctor was taken out by you.
I couldn’t withstand such an attack either, so come play with me in the dream instead. So, everyone……”
“Good night.”
As soon as the words fell, the film crew present, Captain Mao, and Minister Zhang along with a crowd of high-level officials in the building—all of them closed their eyes and fell to the ground.
But Lu Bai was not included among them.
He casually shook his hand and pulled out a Yellow Talisman from his pocket, his smile becoming even kinder.
“Sorry, I don’t want to sleep yet.”
For high-rank Sequence Anomalies, he had some understanding, so when Freddy appeared, he had prepared in advance and used [Flash Time] to interrupt the Hypnosis.
After throwing the Yellow Talisman in his hand at Freddy, he added with a chuckle: “But an Anomaly like you is too dangerous to keep.”
