“You knew already? Why didn't you say anything before I figured it out?” Jin Fugui snorted.

“I’m also a follower of the Yellow God’s Path; the principle behind my coffin planting is similar to that,” Diamond 10 glanced at him. “Besides, I saw you were enjoying yourself so much just now, I couldn’t bear to interrupt your showboating.”

Jin Fugui: ...

“This isn't the time for bickering.”

Spade 8 looked at the two of them, somewhat exasperated, and pointed to the four Judgment Envoys in the distance. “The problem now is... with the four Kings tied up by the secret treasures, who’s going to deal with these four eighth-tier experts?”

Jin Fugui, who had been chattering moments before, immediately fell silent. Even Diamond 10, standing nearby, lapsed into silence.

“What’s with the looks? Why are you all staring at me?” Feeling the gazes of those around him, Jin Fugui spread his hands. “You’re not planning to send me, are you? What tier am I? Am I supposed to go up there and offer myself as fodder?”

Spade 8 sighed. “The Twilight Society only has four eighth-tier members in total, followed by a few seventh-tier Jacks and Queens... But even if they all went together, they wouldn’t be a match for an eighth-tier opponent wielding a foundational secret treasure.”

“Exactly... now, they’ve pretty much seized the initiative...”

“I’ve got it!”

Jin Fugui slapped his thigh.

“You thought of a way?” The two, who had been feeling down, simultaneously turned to look at Jin Fugui, surprised and a little pleased.

“Send Heart 9!”

“Heart 9? Why?”

“He can poison the four eighth-tier experts to death with his venomous little mouth!”

Diamond 10 almost lost it, pulling off a coffin lid with a backhand swing, ready to smash Jin Fugui’s head. This sent Jin Fugui scrambling and yelling as he fled across the ground.

“Speaking of which, we haven't seen Heart 9 and Club 8 since we entered the city,” Spade 8 mused. “Where did those two go?”

“That guy’s thought process has always been different from normal people; who knows what mischief he’s cooking up?” Jin Fugui replied frantically, dodging Diamond 10’s coffin lid.

Boom—!!

A tremendous roar echoed from afar, as countless vines completely crushed an entire block. The three who had been bickering stopped simultaneously, realizing that the four Judgment Envoys had begun to move, approaching the Twilight Society members.

“What’s the plan?”

“What plan? Can any of you beat them?”

Everyone shook their heads.

“Alright then, next up is the Twilight Society’s signature act...” Someone waved a hand dismissively. “Run like hell! Life and death are fated; wealth and status depend on Heaven! Whoever gets caught just isn't good enough!”

Scattered across the Boundless Domain, the Twilight Society members made the same decision almost simultaneously, taking off in the direction away from the Judgment Envoys!

In an instant, various unbelievable escape skills and masterful evasion experience combined, making each of their escape methods uniquely effective. The four Judgment Envoys only blinked, and a group of living people vanished without a trace.

When it came to direct combat, the Twilight Society members might not be particularly impressive, but when it came to escaping, they were unparalleled in history.

Meanwhile.

Inside the factory on the outskirts of the Boundless Domain, dirty bombs were being loaded onto trucks and slowly moved out.

“Hurry up! Faster!” A Usurper stood at the front, directing, while several other Usurpers stood at the entrance, counting the dirty bombs being transported out and simultaneously recording something.

As the last truck drove out of the factory, everyone gathered at a single location, holding their respective record sheets.

“How is it? Are they all accounted for?”

“Yes, pretty much. All the dirty bombs have been divided into two batches: one will be used to destroy the Boundless Domain, and the other is awaiting subsequent deployment to the Five Great Domains.”

“I heard that before the Great Cataclysm, these weapons were capable of precision guidance; you just had to input coordinates, and the missiles would automatically fly to their destination... Unlike now, where they require truck transport and manual deployment.”

“What’s the point of talking about that now? We should focus on how to detonate these bombs within the Boundless Domain.”

“I’ve already given them the deployment map for the domain. Just place them at the designated locations and detonate them remotely. There are so few people in the Boundless Domain now that seven bombs are enough for full coverage. When they go off, not to mention the civilians, even the Twilight Society members will suffer heavy casualties.”

“What about the batch for subsequent deployment to the Five Great Domains? Are they all settled?”

“Don't worry, they’re all set. Twenty bombs for each of the Five Great Domains, a total of one hundred, have already gone to the West Gate... We calculated that the area there is outside the blast radius of the Boundless Domain’s bombs, and it’s sparsely populated, making it ideal for temporarily storing the dirty bombs.”

“Alright then, let’s head towards the safe house now.”

The Usurpers checked the time and hurried off in a certain direction.

They didn't notice that at the end of the truck convoy leaving the factory, one truck suddenly slowed down, turned its cab, and drove onto another deserted side road.

The truck stopped in the middle of the small road. Inside the cab, two stiff "Usurpers" gradually dissolved and vanished, like oil paintings splashed with water.

“Well done!”

Heart 9 suddenly sat up from behind the seat and gave Club 8 a thumbs-up. “Good thing you came along; otherwise, it would have been really hard to steal this truck all by myself...”

Club 8 also sat up, giving him a speechless glance.

“Indeed, besides fighting and cursing, you don’t have many other special skills...”

Heart 9 seemed to be in high spirits. As if he hadn’t heard Club 8’s sarcastic remark, he immediately jumped out of the truck, went around to the back, and forcefully opened the locked doors with both hands.

Seven dirty bombs were quietly secured inside.

Club 8 pulled out a dirty bomb deployment map from somewhere and also got out of the truck. He looked at the markings on it, asking in confusion:

“According to this deployment map, they seem to be planning to use the dirty bombs on this truck to kill everyone in the Boundless Domain... Strange, how did you know they would do this?”

“I didn’t know.”

“Then why did you come straight here as soon as we entered the city??”

“Heh heh...”

Heart 9’s lips curled into a smile. His right hand transformed into a chainsaw, which he used to cut through the fastening of one dirty bomb. Then, he carefully cradled one of the dirty bombs in his arms, as if holding a baby.

He gently stroked the dirty bomb’s casing, his subtly glowing eyes continuously examining every corner of the bomb, as if appraising a work of art.

“Its scent is too unique. Among all the weapons I’ve handled, only this one has such a potent aroma... I can smell its deadly scent from several kilometers away.”

Heart 9 lightly licked his lips, his eyes fixed on the dirty bomb. Club 8 was about to say something when his eyes widened, and he froze in stunned disbelief.

He watched as Heart 9, holding the dirty bomb with both hands, opened his mouth. His jaw stretched to an incredible size, like that of a steel monster, and he slowly began to swallow the dirty bomb.
