Chapter 168: C164
Boom!
On the first floor of the shopping mall, darkness engulfed everything. Only faint wisps of light spilled in through the massive holes in the front and back walls. High above, helicopters hovered, their spotlights cutting through the dust and smoke. Amidst the chaos, two massive figures were locked in a ferocious battle, their forms barely visible through the haze.
Each collision of punches and kicks sounded like detonations. Fists slammed into flesh, and the impact rippled outward like shockwaves, sending debris and air surging in every direction. Blood splattered with each devastating blow.
The crowd watching from a safe distance held their breath, mesmerized by the inhuman battle unfolding before their eyes. Each onlooker's face bore a different expression—fear, awe, or silent calculation.
Across the street, Natasha observed the scene, a slight smirk playing on her lips. Whatever thoughts crossed her mind seemed to amuse her. Suddenly, a faint noise stirred behind her. Without turning around, she spoke, her voice cool and sharp:
"If I were you, I'd stay put. Half the bones in your body are already shattered, and your cells are barely holding on. Sure, your self-healing ability is impressive, but push yourself any further, and there's a good chance it'll kill you."
She paused, her tone hardening. "And don't think for a second I'd bother collecting your body."
Behind her, a figure staggered into view. Bloody Mary clung to the railing of a damaged billboard, her body trembling. Blood dripped from her mouth as she struggled to stand, her other hand clutching her injured arm. Wisps of faint blue light shimmered around her fingertips as she whispered hoarsely,
"I finally found you. Even if it kills me, I'll find him."
Boom!
The ground shook violently once more. The two monstrous fighters crashed upward, smashing through to the second floor of the shopping mall. Natasha's gaze never wavered, her voice calm and detached.
