Chapter 295: Defense: Part 2
“What a pathetic loser!” The dark-skinned woman glanced coldly at the hole in the wall . She was confident the target was hit in the face . It was a no-bullsh*t blow . Lin Sheng would be dead for sure, no matter which way she looked at it . Just as she was about to leave, the man got up again with the dark energy flickering on him . He was wounded and about to die .
“Not dead yet?”
The dark-skinned woman’s eyes wide opened . With the wave of her hand, Whale Rudder dissolved behind her . It transformed into pure dark energy, flew through the hole in the wall, hitting Lin Sheng in the other room . This time she had used over 1,000 units of dark energy .
The loud burst ensued . Lin Sheng flew up like a tattered fabric doll, hitting the wall behind him like a cannonball with his body deep-setting in the concrete .
Lin Sheng coughed and broke free from the wall . Half-kneeling on the ground and panting, he looked as if he was dying .
“Not dead yet?” The dark-skinned woman’s mouth was agape, and she wondered if she had hit the target earlier .
She waved her hand again . This time, with three Whale Rudders transforming into pure liquid dark energy, it rushed into the hole, re-transforming into Whade Rudders and hitting Lin Sheng with three consecutive loud booms .
Lin Sheng was sent flying into another office next door . He broke through two load-bearing walls, brought down a massive white machine, which fell on and smashed the corner of a rectangular conference table .
The dark-skinned woman gasped . Directing three Whale Rudders at the same time with each exceeding 1,000-units of dark energy, it was exhaustive .
“Should have died by now . ” She went through the holes in the walls and stood not far away from Lin Sheng .
Lin Sheng coughed as he got up from a pile of debris once again .

He looked in a bad shape . His clothes were ragged, his movements slow, and appearing exhausted and to have suffered some internal injuries . But he looked determined as he stood up .
“You…” Sweat popped up from the black woman’s face . She could not believe what she saw . The woman hissed and a knife, formed by dark energy, appeared in her hand . She clenched the knife in her hand and lunged at Lin Sheng .
Lin Sheng was sent flying before he crashed to the ground and could never get up again .
Suddenly, some strange air whipped past outside . Startled, the woman lunged out of an open window and disappeared into the frightened crowd outside .
The next second, a green light emerged in front of the window in a flash . Professor Auldmandiller rushed out of the light and stepped into the office . Seeing the broken bricks and dust everywhere, and the massive hole in the wall, Auldmandiller’s expression turned grave . Just by looking at the scene, he could already see how powerful the attack and destructive force .
“Lin Sheng!” With no time to think, he rushed in through the hole in the wall . The staff in the office next door were mostly gone . But a few daring ones were hiding and peering in from behind the door . Auldmandiller saw Lin Sheng lying on the ground, and he rushed over to help him up .
“Are you alright?”
Lin Sheng shook his head, looked up, and in a daze . He calmed down, panting .
“I’m lucky that she has missed twice . Otherwise, I would have been in deep sh*t!”
“Are you sure you’re okay?” Auldmandiller took out a cylindrical silver crystal from his pocket . “This is a regenerative crystal! Hold it and ingest it Stop talking!”

Lin Sheng sat upright and forced a smile . “I’m alright, Sir . The opponent was careless . She didn’t check if I was dead . ” He pushed the crystal away and got to his feet .
“Had I not been lucky today, I might have been dead now . That woman was strong . I couldn’t even fight back . ”
“You just learned dark energy . It’s only natural that you are powerless against a Suppressor-class opponent,” Auldmandiller said helplessly . Only after making sure that Lin Sheng was alright did he breathe a sigh of relief .
“But then, the place has become a mess, and yet you are fine . You are really lucky . ” Auldmandiller sighed .
Lin Sheng looked like he was in shock .
“Yeah, I thought I would be dead many times . I never thought I would survive . ” He clenched his fists, pretending to be embittered and frightened . “Only if I were stronger, I wouldn’t be…”
“Don’t overthink . You are still young . ” Auldmandiller patted him on the shoulder . “How the assassin looks like? Is it a non-human? Can you describe it to me?”
“Aye!” Lin Sheng nodded .
“That guy!” The dark-skinned woman covered herself with a white windbreaker and darted forward inside a dim tunnel . Vehicles zooming past were flashing their headlights at her .

The old lighting system had long gone out of service . The air in the tunnel was nowhere near healthy, but she could not care less . When she reached the middle of the tunnel, she turned into a small black door built into the wall . Switching on the torchlight, she walked through the room behind the door before coming into a dark hall .
“What happened? Feia? You look disturbed . ” A male voice sounded from a corner in the darkness .
The dark-skinned woman took a deep breath . “I bumped into someone . Also, something is puzzling me . ”
“Aren’t you looking for the killer destroying the base?” the man asked in a whisper .
“Not found yet . The Darksiders from the authority have emerged and so has the Moon Basin . As such, I figured I had to keep my head down . ” The dark-skinned woman calmed down and spoke in a whisper .
“No hurry . The theft of the soul vessel from that base was probably just a coincidence . You know, neither we nor the Sect of Verity has ever lost any soul vessel before . It must be a coincidence,” the man comforted .
“What do we do now? Just wait here?” the dark-skinned woman asked .
“Be patient . The Archbishop is coming soon . We can’t do anything without the soul vessel . ”
The dark-skinned woman said no more, and there was a silence . She was replaying the scene she had just encountered in her mind . She clearly felt she had hit the target, not once but many times . But what happened then? Every time she recalled the fight with the young dark-haired man, she would feel a chill running up her spine .
“Forget it . Why should I be worried? He could have been dead . I have used nearly half my dark energy and struck his throat . ” She calmed down and decided not to think any further .
“Where was the other soul vessel that had been moved out?” she asked casually .
“It’s with me . That is the purpose of Archbishop’s visit . He is to escort the soul vessel out of this place temporarily,” the man answered .
“We have caught many people who can sense the shades . And we have been one step ahead of the Moon Basin . So they won’t be able to catch up to us as before . ”
“Well, let’s hope everything goes well . ” The dark-skinned woman’s voice was as depressed as her mood .
“No worries . ”
In the spot clean hospital ward, Lin Sheng was half-lying on the bed, sipping hot water from the glass in his hands . From yesterday’s experience, he got a taste of what it was like to fight with dark energy .
