In the distance.

“Master, that devil’s movements are so similar to yours…”

After sensing this scene, Raven spoke to Loren in his mind.

“…”

In your mind, I really am that despicable, huh, you stupid bird!

Loren fell silent for a moment, wanting to refute something, but what Raven said this time was the truth. He did indeed enjoy taking deep breaths of the surrounding air and making some terrifying statements…

“But in the end, I am different from those devil fellows.” Loren offered this weak justification.

In front of the Digital Currency Bank, the figure standing on the black ashes, after finishing his lament, casually waved his hand lightly towards the low-tier devils.

Then, those devils gathered around roared while half-jumping as they rushed to the right and front of the Digital Currency Bank.

From this point, the four-story-high Digital Currency Bank was completely surrounded, like an iron barrel.

The devils and the Fire Thief Cult had surrounded the area around the Digital Currency Bank, making it watertight.

At this moment, the Security Bureau’s encirclement had already shrunk to a distance of 8,000 meters from the Digital Currency Bank.

When that massive golden teleportation array appeared, the Security Bureau’s encirclement stopped at just the right moment.

They needed to leave sufficient combat space to avoid accidentally injuring their own people.

New orders also came through the communicators worn by the Security Bureau agents.

“All personnel, hold your positions, do not approach rashly! The enemy has summoned a high-level devil. The energy fluctuation detection device scanned the target and assessed it as Legendary Tier.”

Since Loren’s spiritual power was enveloping the area below, he also learned the tier of that sulfur-scented figure.

“A Legendary Tier devil? Interesting, haven’t fought one yet…”

Just as Loren was still pondering something, a fierce laser strike suddenly descended from the starry sky above, striking near the Digital Currency Bank at the speed of light.

“Boom!” A huge mushroom cloud rose, enveloping the location of the Digital Currency Bank.

The high-temperature blast wave and shockwave from the explosion began to spread, causing the Radiant Flow Main City beneath their feet to tremble.

Clearly, the Digital Currency Bank and its surroundings, or rather the entire underground black market area, had already been designated as a battlefield by the Security Bureau.

In the eyes of the Security Bureau, those living in the underground black market were not innocent.

Tonight, they would spare no cost to destroy the Digital Currency Bank. This was the Security Bureau’s stance for tonight.

Even Loren, suspended in the night sky, felt the power of this explosion, being pushed back several meters by the spreading shockwave.

“All agents, be aware of the subsequent effects of the attack. The interstellar warships have commenced the first wave of strikes.”

A new order once again came through the communicators worn by the agents.

At that moment, a new change began on the battlefield. The massive mushroom cloud enveloping the entire underground area above was dispersed by a tremendous force, revealing the scene below.

Within the vast expanse of the underground black market, only the structure of the “Digital Currency Bank” remained standing. Countless large and small golden teleportation arrays appeared around the bank.

These golden arrays were like a golden robe draped over the Digital Currency Bank, indestructible.

It was precisely these golden teleportation arrays that exiled all the attacks from the interstellar warships targeting the bank into unknown spaces.

As for the other buildings within the underground black market, they had all turned into deep craters under that laser strike.

At this moment, the Digital Currency Bank stood alone, as if perched atop a small hill.

The area within a 3,000-meter radius around it had all transformed into a circular deep pit emitting endless high temperatures.

In this vast, newly-formed deep pit, newly created magma was flowing.

There was no trace left of the original appearance of the underground black market here. This place should have been a densely populated cluster of buildings…

“All personnel, attention! The intelligence publicly released by the Empire is correct. The Fire Thief Cult has indeed tamed space. Initiate Plan Two!”

“Repeat! Initiate Plan Two!”

With the shouts from the communicators, the Security Bureau agents on the ground began to retreat in an orderly manner, and the encirclement began to expand again…

Meanwhile, the nearly thousand mechas located in the air began to launch new attacks.

The weapon systems built into the nearly thousand mechas all began charging up!

The next moment!

Countless laser and missile strikes poured forth from the bodies of the nearly thousand mechas, rushing straight towards the unyielding Digital Currency Bank!

“Boom!!”

Almost simultaneously, a near-infinite number of lasers simultaneously blasted against the golden teleportation arrays!

The large and small golden teleportation arrays emitted dazzling light. These arrays were working at full capacity to teleport the attacks targeting the bank…

Soon, the second wave of strikes from the mechas arrived!

The missiles launched by the mechas also reached the vicinity of the bank.

However, these missiles did not choose to impact the golden arrays. Instead, they all exploded not far from the bank!

And after these missiles detonated, they did not generate high temperatures or cause combustion. Instead, they released cloud after cloud of green smoke!

Eerie green smoke drifted around the Digital Currency Bank.

The moment the smoke made contact with the golden arrays, a “sizzling” sound appeared on the arrays. Some of the smaller golden arrays began to flicker irregularly, on the verge of collapse.

“All personnel, attention! The effect of the Anti-Magic Smoke can only last for 10 seconds!”

“Attention, do not inhale any of the smoke!”

“Repeat! Attention, do not inhale any of the smoke!”

Loren, high in the night sky, sensed the commands coming from the agents’ communicators below and silently retreated another thousand meters.

How insidious, Security Bureau… Loren silently remarked.

At that moment, a small rotating black hole appeared above the bank and began to absorb the eerie smoke drifting around.

The Anti-Magic Smoke lasted less than 10 seconds before being completely devoured by that small black hole.

The smoke dissipated.

Only some of the larger golden arrays remained surrounding the Digital Currency Bank.

But with the rapid replenishment by the members of the Fire Thief Cult, small golden arrays once again appeared in the sky above the bank.

“All personnel, attention! Initiate Plan Three!”

“Repeat! Initiate Plan Three!”

Seeing the failure of the mechas’ attack, a new order once again came through the agents’ communicators.

The nearly one hundred thousand agents forming the encirclement each retrieved a silvery-white metal sphere from the tactical pockets on their thighs and forcefully slammed them onto the ground.

Instantly.

Those nearly one hundred thousand silvery-white metal spheres that struck the ground transformed into fine white particles.
