137. Purification, Cleansing, Destruction

Snap.

The disguised Celia slowly took off the headphones. Everything was ready. It continuously maintained communication with Zhou Liefeng.

In just ten minutes, they would reach the underground and completely escape the threat of the beast tide.

In this way, she could free up her hands to kill the driver and take full control of the train.

Once they reached the crowd, the impostors could disperse and expand their forces at will.

It stood up and turned its head towards the door.

"Oh?" Celia clicked her tongue in surprise. "It seems something unexpected happened."

Before she finished speaking, the plastic steel door quickly turned red and heated up. Molten iron dripped to the ground like butter, spreading bright, scorching flames across the floor.

"Are you the councilor?"

A calm male voice rang out in the space.

"This is not a place you should be," the mimicking impostor said sternly. "Leave here and return to your compartment!"

Snap!

Li Aozi stepped onto the road ahead, his superior 【Charisma】 granting him deeper control over Omega Energy.

【Natural Ignition】

【Mode One • Purification of Filth】

The flames immediately split into two paths in front of him. The intense heat and metal vapor were lifted and then instantly released, bombing the mimicking Celia like a bomb.

Boom——

The impostor's pupils contracted. As the high-temperature shockwave approached, it immediately realized its mimicked armor couldn't withstand such an explosion. Instantly, it abandoned its disguise, liquefied, and retreated rapidly.

Metal, machinery, and electronic devices were shattered by the high-temperature shockwave in an instant. Rapid oxidation caused them to explode again. The impostor's mood plummeted. Just as it reformed after landing, its front was covered in flames.

But compared to nearly being killed upon meeting, the impostor, now mimicking Jane Neria, looked at Li Aozi in horror:

"You—you, a native, how could you know about society's structure?"

"So it was Jane you devoured."

Li Aozi nodded.

"Who exactly are you?"

Fear rose in the impostor's heart. Without interstellar civilization, it would be impossible to know about society. Even in the Abyss, narrative-level civilizations strictly blocked information about society.

Now, it heard the clear term 'councilor' from the mouth of a native civilization that hadn't even left its home planet.

"I am a councilor of the Replica Council, Yalka • Fake. Who exactly are you?"

"I am your dad."

He didn't bother to answer everything.

Li Aozi raised his palm, scattering a mix of iron and aluminum dust from his pocket. These metal powders, which couldn't normally burn in the air, were captured by the 【Natural Ignition】 ability. The oxidation reaction accelerated violently, bursting into brilliant sparks in the air like a meteor shower, showering down on the impostor.

"Damn it!"

Yalka • Fake quickly retreated. The thermite agent, barely brushing against its arm, immediately burned through transparent holes.
