Chu Tian's face turned cold, seemingly finally dropping the pretense.

Looking at the other party's official manner and the fact that they used ordinary handcuffs against her, the old director inexplicably wanted to laugh.

In the end, she still chose not to act.

Compared to the existence of the Divine Race, this already decaying body was insignificant, abandoned as easily as it could be.

As long as...

Her gaze swept past the minibus slowly disappearing from sight not far away, and the girl leaning against the window, quietly watching the scene unfold, unexpectedly made her smile.

As her nurtured successor, and the best vessel.

As long as she exists, I will only become stronger...

Divine Race... Eternal and indestructible!

"Why are you laughing?" Chu Tian frowned involuntarily.

"Haha! It's nothing, I just didn't expect you'd still discover... I admit, I did everything.

Exposed because of a fugitive... what a pity..."

She chuckled, with an expression of resignation, slowly closing her eyes.

Although she would be forced to abandon this identity, and the orphanage as a stronghold was likely to be discarded, today's events needed to be reported in detail to the Hive...

She had a feeling that there was something wrong with this group of people?

Why capture dogs city-wide at a critical moment, why Zhao Hu's whereabouts were exposed so quickly, why they could easily find her basement...

The truth must be investigated thoroughly!

However, as she was calming her mind, closing her eyes to initiate "Spiritual Synchronization" to warn the Hive...

"Wait! What are you saying, Captain Chu, have you gone mad? Why are you handcuffing the old director? Quickly release her!"

Since earlier, Ning Shisan, who had been supporting the old director and appeared to respect the elderly very much, seemed unable to grasp the situation and actually tried to intervene.

Ha! Truly foolish humans...

Without concern, continuing to cast the skill's preparation...

"Shh~"

A cool sensation on her neck, the old director suddenly opened her eyes wide, staring in surprise at Ning Shisan behind her.

And the other person was expressionless, retracting a metallic reflection in his hand...

That was... a syringe?!

No! It's a trap!

"Ka~" She exerted her strength to break free, but the chemical substance flowing rapidly throughout her body via the carotid artery made her dizzy.

How could it be... I am...

Divine Race...

Not giving the old director any chance, her consciousness plunged into complete darkness...

...

[Dead... She actually died...

What did you inject her with in the end?!]

[Neurotoxin, specifically designed for this target.

This stuff is hard to come by, let alone using a dose enough to instantly kill an elephant...]

[You're crazy! That was just an old woman! Even if her crimes were heinous...]

[That's why the boss wanted me to act, because he knows you regular soldiers wouldn't deal a death blow to a civilian... Hey hey! You're not seriously thinking of sending me to a military court, are you?

Look at your handcuffs first before you act!]

[Uh... how is that possible, these were made from high-strength alloy, yet they've been bent out of shape...]

[Do you still think at this point that we joined forces just to deal with a regular human?]

[...]

[No matter who it is, killing requires retribution!]

[Haha! Do I look afraid of dying? Laozi, I'm destined for the martyr's cemetery...]

[Such nonsense, regardless of anything, wouldn't keeping her alive allow us to extract more information?]

[Too dangerous! The boss emphasized, if there's any sign of skill activation from the target, don't hesitate to kill her!

From the beginning, we never planned on leaving any survivors.]

[You all...]

[Oh, Captain Chu, one more thing, make sure to keep these handcuffs, they hold great commemorative value.]

[What value?]

[Handcuffs that held that type of being—this is a boast that'll last a lifetime...]

[That type of being... What exactly is it? And who is the boss you're talking about?]

[If I say I know nothing, just like you, merely a puppet on strings, moving according to someone's script, would you believe me?]

[How could that be...]

[The only thing I know is that today's operation... is a life-and-death war!]

[War? Just this?]

[Haha! You might think firing a single shot solved the problem without breaking a sweat.

However, we had nearly complete intelligence on this orphanage, and even anticipated all possible reactions from the other side, preparing targeted contingencies in advance, making over a dozen adaptive plans...

In the end, without any casualties, we saved all the children and dealt with the mastermind, the other side never offered even a single proper resistance up until their death...

Was the entire process really accomplished effortlessly?

Thinking back now, I'm somewhat grateful that I belong to the human camp.

In Country Hua, there's an ancient saying: those skilled in warfare have no illustrious war merits!]

[...]

[Hmm... However, if my Christian former Captain were still alive, he would probably describe today's war with another saying.]

[What saying?]

[He would touch the Bible, kneel on one knee before the ruins after the battle, and say piously...

Your every assured victory is nothing but God's spectacle from afar...]
