Alvin stood on the lamppost, laughing maniacally! The flames on his body licked away his remaining flesh, and the blood that flowed out evaporated instantly. As he watched the now deranged Alvin, David's mind stirred, and without hesitation, he raised the spatial blade and charged at him. He didn't care how deranged this guy before him was; today, he had only one belief: to kill him!

In his pyrocorpse form, Alvin, with eyes aflame, continued to emit lava from his pupils, and the flames on his body grew more vigorous, exuding an overwhelming aura of devouring everything. Extending his hand, Alvin took hold of a sharp rib bone and sneered at David before rushing towards him. In an instant, the two engaged in combat once again.

As the pyrocorpse, Alvin's combat prowess was significantly stronger than before, and his bone blade was incredibly unpredictable, striking at David's vital points. The ribs protruding from his body elevated his defense to another level, repeatedly blocking David's attacks. They clashed in the air, with countless sparks and drops of flame falling to the ground.

As they witnessed the intense battle between the two, the members of the squad once again felt their hearts tighten. Arnold, driven by the desire to fight, wanted to rush forward and assist David. However, remembering his own performance earlier, he couldn't help but dismiss the thought. Charging in now would undoubtedly be troublesome for David. The others understood this as well, so they anxiously watched David, clenching their fists.

Mandy lifted her head and looked at David in the sky, her twin ponytails swaying. Her expression appeared much more relaxed compared to the other members of the squad. As David's puppet, she naturally knew the true strength of her master, so she wasn't worried about their battle at all.

Seeing the ribs protruding from Alvin's body, David seized the opportunity and sliced off one of them with his blade. Alvin suddenly felt a sharp pain in his body and quickly steadied himself, swinging his bone blade.

David had already anticipated this move, and he effortlessly blocked it with his spatial blade. Then, he lifted his leg and delivered a powerful kick to the remaining ribs of Alvin.

"Crack!" Several cracking sounds echoed as David's kick shattered three of Alvin's defense ribs, leaving only a single isolated one without any protective function. Feeling the intense pain in his body, Alvin stared at David in terror. While his pyrocorpse form was only at level eight, due to his special cultivation over the years, his strength was on par with a level nine esper. Particularly, the six defense ribs he had meticulously honed were exceptionally tough. Alvin hadn't expected David to destroy all his years of painstaking training with just two strikes.

"Damn it! Today, I must kill you!" Alvin endured the pain and rushed at David like a madman.

A cold smile curved on David's lips as he retracted his spatial blade and delivered a fierce punch to the oncoming body. "Thud!" The punch struck heavily against Alvin, who felt as if he had been hit by a locomotive. He crashed onto the ruins like a kite with a broken string. The sound of intense impact with broken stones resonated as a large pit with a diameter of two meters formed where he landed.

David drew out an alloy dagger and swiftly swung it downward, aiming for Alvin's chest. "Splash!" Blood sprayed out from the wound, and the flames on Alvin's body immediately extinguished, reverting him to his normal human form.

"I said, killing requires paying the price." David withdrew the alloy dagger and looked at him. After this strike from David, Alvin's body had become extremely weak. He struggled to lift his head and gazed at David with eyes filled with unwillingness.

At this moment, Duane also arrived with Shirley. Standing by Alvin's side, Duane's eyebrows instantly furrowed. David looked at his gloomy expression and guessed the relationship between the two, so he said, "I've taken care of a renegade for your Phoenix Rising squad, no need to thank me." With that, David sheathed his alloy short knife and turned to leave.

Seeing Alvin barely hanging on to life, Duane felt a mix of emotions. After all, Alvin was the vice captain of his squad and someone he had watched grow up. He never imagined that Alvin would turn out to be a traitor.I think you should take a look at

"Why did you do this, Alvin?" Duane asked in a deep voice.

Looking at Duane, Alvin once again showed a disdainful expression. Swallowing a mouthful of blood, he struggled to speak, "Did you really think the Phoenix Rising squad was yours? Without me, you would have died in this world a long time ago."

Listening to Alvin's words, Duane remained silent. Shirley, by his side, frowned as she looked at Alvin amidst the ruins. Taking a breath, Alvin continued, "If you had given up the captain position to me from the beginning, the Phoenix Rising squad would have become the most powerful squad in the apocalypse!"

"You're not deserving of that captain position!" Duane still kept his head low and didn't respond. He didn't care about what Alvin said. Right now, he only cared about two questions. He raised his head and looked at Alvin as he asked, "Did you kill Adrian's squad?"

This was Duane's first question, buried deep in his heart for ten long years. Adrian's squad was the first captain of the Phoenix Rising squad and Duane's mentor.

"Adrian? He was a coward. I killed him to clean up the waste in this world! Shouldn't waste be eliminated?" Alvin said without concealing his words.

Duane's mind tightened, and he clenched his fists tightly. "The Second Red Light, is it related to you?" he gritted his teeth and asked the second question, which had been the truth he had been investigating these past few days.

Upon hearing the mention of the Second Red Light, Alvin visibly paused. After a brief moment of contemplation, he smiled and looked at Duane, then opened his mouth to speak.

"Regarding what you said..." Before Alvin could finish his sentence, a steel pipe suddenly flew towards him from a distance! It happened so quickly that not even David had time to react.

Duane quickly drew his machete to defend himself, but as soon as he touched the handle, he heard a dull thud. He lowered his head to see the steel pipe lodged in Alvin's throat. Alvin writhed, his throat full of shock, as he looked in one direction before tilting his head and losing his breath completely.

David immediately pulled out his spatial blade and stared at the direction the steel pipe came from. Duane also rushed over, wanting to investigate. However, in the distance, there was only a dark cloud, and no one else could be seen.

"This person's strength surpasses ours," David surveyed the surroundings and said. Whoever could kill Alvin in front of so many people must be extraordinary. Could there be a bigger puppeteer behind the scenes? A surprising speculation arose in David's mind.
