Director Sa had just come to his senses and was also stunned by the scene before him.
Six members of the Holy Sect Army lay scattered on the ground, their armor terribly deformed.
They looked like six crushed cans.
Unexpectedly, despite such destruction, the gas canister did not explode...
Instead, the Holy Light energy seemed to be squeezed out by some force, gathering in the air into a towering golden flame giant!
"Run!"
Heine made a split-second decision, and Huiyu and the Phantom Horse turned tail and fled.
It was then that Director Sa realized Heine had, at some point, entered battle mode, donning a black crown and robe.
The Phantom Horse was similarly attired, as if clad in a suit of pitch-black armor.
As soon as Director Sa awoke, Heine was inquiring about his condition.
While replying, Director Sa asked the man from the Northeast: "How did things end up like this?"
