As Amamiya Rindou’s words fell, dark figures began to appear around them.
“Roar…”
With low growls, various Aragami emerged from all directions, slowly approaching Fang Li’s entire group and surrounding them.
“——!”
Apart from Amamiya Rindou, who had already noticed this situation, Alisa, Tachibana Sakuya, and Soma all had a change in complexion and reflexively raised their weapons.
Fang Li, who had come down from Amamiya Rindou’s back, tightly gripped the Moonlight Dagger in his hand but he involuntarily half-knelt on the ground. The sense of powerlessness from deep within his soul made Fang Li’s body feel burdened and he felt as if he couldn’t exert any strength at all.
Fatigue and drowsiness continued to assail Fang Li’s mind, causing his vision to blur.
“Tsk…” Fang Li forcefully bit his tongue, expelling the fatigue and drowsiness that assailed his mind, and his gaze scanned the surroundings.
The Aragami that surrounded them from all directions were not the common small-sized Aragami with a demon-like faces and long tails, but all of them were large-sized Aragami.
And they were all Vajra.
“Roar…”
“Roar…”
Growls resounded from the mouths of the Vajra one after another.
Scores of Vajra, numbering at least in the hundreds, gradually approached Fang Li’s entire group, radiating a fierce aura in their gleaming eyes.
“So many Vajra…”
“This is getting troublesome…”
“What should we do?”
“Hmph.”
Alisa, Amamiya Rindou, Tachibana Sakuya, and Soma, the four of them, surrounded Fang Li, who was kneeling on one knee, without leaving any trace, their gaze firmly fixed on the Vajra surrounding them. It seemed they were prepared to protect Fang Li while engaging in battle with a large number of Aragami around them.
Sensing this, Fang Li couldn’t help but feel somewhat helpless in his heart.
“This is also one of the reasons why I didn’t want to use Stigma.”
After all, apart from Aphrodite, there were also many other Aragami that had invaded the Russian Branch, almost an uncountable number.
In the battle against Aphrodite, these Aragami were unable to intervene. However, once Aphrodite was dealt with, it naturally became an expected event to face these Aragami.
If Fang Li had exhausted his strength in the battle against Aphrodite, then in the end, he would definitely die on the battlefield.
Unfortunately, things don’t always go as planned. In the end, Fang Li still had to use Stigma, saving his life under Aphrodite’s rage but he was unable to fight against the remaining Aragami.
As Fang Li watched the Vajra approaching him and his group, his eyes shimmered with determination.
Just then, the communicator in Fang Li’s ear finally rang.
“The catapult device has been unlocked! Starting the launch!”
It was Hibari’s voice.
Upon hearing this voice, Fang Li’s spirits couldn’t help but be lifted, and he quickly turned his head to look in the direction of the main facility.
Even from Fang Li’s perspective, he could still clearly see that the ceiling of the central main facility in the Russian Branch began to move.
It was like the preparation for the launch of a space rocket, as a device carrying a massive culture tank slowly rose from the main facility.
Immediately, Hibari’s voice sounded again from Fang Li’s communicator.
“Countdown to launch!”
“Counting down from 5 seconds!”
“5!”
“4!”
“3!”
“2!”
“1!”
“Launch!”
With Hibari’s voice echoing, a burst of flames suddenly erupted from beneath the massive culture tank mounted on the top of the main facility. Like a rocket, it shot up into the sky, leaving behind a long trail of light as it violently ascended.
“What is that?”
Naturally, Alisa, Amamiya Rindou, Tachibana Sakuya, and Soma, the group of four, noticed this scene and were all astonished as they watched the massive culture tank shoot up into the sky.
In this situation, the large culture tank, with its long trail of light, seemed to vanish into the distance, gradually disappearing.
In that instant, the Vajra that had surrounded Fang Li’s entire group simultaneously froze in their tracks, and the ferocity in their eyes gradually turned into a blank stare.
Shortly afterward, one Vajra after another turned towards a specific direction and began to move, walking forward.
That direction naturally led to where the massive culture tank had departed.
With Aphrodite already dead and the hormones controlling the Aragami gone, the hormones released by Eros immersed in the large culture tank became an attractant for the Aragami. They all simultaneously chased after the direction Eros had departed in.
Therefore, at this moment, Fang Li clearly saw it.
Not only in their immediate surroundings, but all throughout the Russian Branch, one Aragami after another was leaving, following the direction Eros had taken.
Even as they passed by Fang Li’s group, they didn’t spare them a glance and slowly moved away.
“The device has been launched. Now, all the Aragami in the Russian Branch are reacting and heading toward the direction where Eros was launched. It is estimated that in half an hour, all the Aragami will have left the Russian Branch.”
Hibari’s voice came through the communicator with a sigh of relief, followed by a joyful laugh as she spoke those words.
“The battle is over, Fang Li. Thank you for your help.”
It must be said that Hibari truly possessed the innate skill of being an Operator.
At least, at this moment, as Fang Li listened to Hibari’s pleasant voice, the tension in his heart gradually relaxed, and a smile slowly appeared on his face.
Seeing Fang Li’s expression, Alisa, Amamiya Rindou, Tachibana Sakuya, and Soma, the entire group, looked at each other in surprise.
Then, Amamiya Rindou lowered his God Arc, took out a cigarette from his pocket, and lit it.
“While I don’t know what happened…” Amamiya Rindou took a deep drag on his cigarette and looked at the army of Aragami gradually leaving the Russian Branch without looking back. He asked, “But we can consider this event to be over, right?”
Upon hearing this, Fang Li couldn’t help but smile and replied, “If no more unexpected incidents occur.”
“Is that so?” Amamiya Rindou also smiled and turned his head to look at Tachibana Sakuya and Soma, saying, “Well then, everyone has worked hard so we can rest for now.”
As they watched Amamiya Rindou easily accept the situation, Tachibana Sakuya furrowed her brow, and even Soma felt somewhat helpless in his heart.
Only Alisa, who was half crouching by Fang Li’s side, supported him and softly said, “Thank you for your help, Fang Li.”
Seeing Alisa’s expression and gaze that seemed somewhat softer, Fang Li’s lips curved slightly upwards.
Unbeknownst to them, the rain had stopped.
The sky finally began to clear, allowing Fang Li to see the first ray of sunlight since arriving in this world.
That sunlight was extremely dazzling.
