Alvin lightly flicked his finger, and a faint blue flame suddenly emerged on his fingertip. The flame flew towards the red-robed woman and instantly entered her body. This intensified her already enraged emotions, and she flew towards the direction David had left.

At this moment, David and his team had already left the ruins. The armored vehicle roared with its powerful engine, swiftly traversing through every street. Suddenly! At a turn, the cold wind that had been present in the ruins struck again, even more ferocious than before!

"Not good, that person is following us!" Charles furrowed his brows, sensing the external aura. Upon seeing this, David firmly pressed down on the accelerator, attempting to break through the cold wind.

"You can't escape from the palm of my hand, hahaha!" The voice of the red-robed woman suddenly resounded in everyone's minds. This caught David off guard!

"Telepathy?" David immediately recognized the ability of the red-robed woman. The other team members also realized it and looked out the window with serious expressions. This ability to infiltrate the human brain and release certain signals within it was undoubtedly a telepathic ability.

David didn't expect that this red-robed woman not only reached the eighth level but also awakened telepathic abilities. The voice kept hovering in everyone's minds, combined with her piercing laughter, causing a dizzying sensation.

Seeing this, David knew that today they had crossed paths with a formidable adversary, and telepathic abilities were a long-range power. Espers with this ability could invade a person's consciousness regardless of obstacles. Even if the armored vehicle's speed was fast, it probably couldn't escape the enemy's control.

So David made a firm decision and immediately slammed on the brakes. "Since we've encountered each other, there's no reason to avoid a fight!" David retrieved his dual blades, pushed open the door, and stepped out.

The others quickly followed suit, getting out of the vehicle and assuming combat-ready postures. Little Black and Cola seemed to sense the danger and kept scanning the surroundings. The cold wind on the street grew stronger, and the thick mist spread as if surging up from the ground.

David stared straight ahead and, with a thought, activated his Bone Enhancement ability, instantly covering his entire body with a faint layer of golden defense.

"Be cautious, the opponent is at the eighth level and has awakened telepathic abilities. Avoid direct confrontation at all costs." David observed the surroundings while briefing his team members.

Upon hearing that the opponent was at the eighth level, everyone was momentarily stunned, their expressions growing more serious. Just at that moment, the red figure appeared again from within the thick mist. Everyone immediately focused all their attention and stared intently at her.

"Hehehe, I thought you were all a bunch of cowards!" The red-robed woman slowly walked out from the mist, and only then did the others get a clear view of her. They saw that her face was pale, her long hair draped down, and there was a butterfly hairpin clipped at her temple. Her crimson robe looked particularly eerie, resembling a waterfall of blood.

The red-robed woman looked at David with a faint smile and continued, " You killed my father, and now you want to run?" Saying this, a tinge of sadness once again appeared on her face.

"If I don't kill him, we will die. Killing him is the rule of survival in the apocalypse." David looked at her coldly and said.

Upon hearing David's words, the woman in the red robe instantly became furious. "What a survival rule! Today, I'll show you what a terrifying rule is!" she exclaimed. With that, she opened her red lips slightly and began uttering a series of strange symbols.

Upon seeing this, Arnold and Duke immediately rushed towards her, attempting to disrupt her ability. However, as soon as they took a step forward, the woman in the red robe suddenly opened her eyes wide, and blood instantly flowed out of her torn eye sockets. She stared intensely at the two men, a dangerous and eerie expression forming on her lips.

Arnold and Duke had just taken a step when they both forcefully coughed up blood. They stood frozen in place, seemingly devoid of any consciousness.

"Arnold!" "Duke!" Sally shouted loudly upon witnessing the scene. At the same time, white lightning surged from her fingertips, poised to strike the woman in the red robe. However, in the next second, she too coughed up a mouthful of blood, becoming identical to the two men.

"Uh-oh! Their consciousness has been invaded!" David exclaimed. Without hesitation, he opened a spatial portal and charged towards the woman in the red robe. He had to interrupt her release of abilities in a timely manner, as the consequences would be unimaginable.

The woman in the red robe also noticed David's actions. She swung her enormous red sleeve, and a waterfall made of congealed blood surged towards David. He quickly evaded it, causing the red cascade to collide with a nearby cement wall.

"Boom!" The sturdy wall instantly collapsed! Charles couldn't help but gasp, realizing the terrifying strength of the woman. As the debris flew around, David slowly distanced himself from her. With his current Level 7 ability, he would undoubtedly face some pressure if he engaged in a direct confrontation with her.

However, David had calculated and decided to stay and fight her, taking into account the arsenal of weapons he had amassed in his storage system, as well as his newly acquired bone reinforcement ability. He believed he had the strength to confront her. So, he stared intently at her, attempting to find a flaw.

Meanwhile, inside the Phoenix Rising team's base, Shirley was somewhat bored as she stared at the screens, unable to suppress a yawn. She immediately regretted the promise she made to Duane, vowing to monitor the screens every day. Even an old man would grow tired staring at these screens all day, let alone someone like her, who was at the age of indulging in whimsical thoughts. So, she casually clicked the mouse, switching between the surveillance screens.

"Huh? Where did this little kitten come from? So cute!" A little kitten suddenly appeared on the screen, instantly piquing Shirley's interest. As a self-proclaimed cat lover, she couldn't resist the charm of a cute kitten. She had even secretly brought a stray kitten inside from outside, but the next day, Alvin, who didn't like small animals, picked it up and threw it out. This deprived her of the only joy in her apocalyptic life.

As she gazed at the kitten on the screen, Shirley's eyes lit up. However, she quickly noticed that there was a man standing next to the kitten. Looking at the man, Shirley became puzzled because she remembered seeing this familiar figure not too long ago."Why is this man appearing again?"
