Unfortunately, the Magician wasn't so easy to deal with. With a tap of the magic wand in midair, familiar colored paper ribbons fell from high above, instantly turning the experimental building into a stage.
The swirling paper transformed into blade-sized strips, targeting and killing those who had just started to evolve as well as several others, including staff members who'd been isolated outside the current roster by Xu Huo.
This laboratory wasn't under the jurisdiction of the Special Defense Department, so the staff hadn't fully evacuated. Seventy-one people remained, including cleaners. Now, not a single one is left.
The dense colored paper muddied visibility; occasionally a strip clung close to the eye, causing momentary blankness. But neither of the two present needed to rely on their eyes to see, so there was no reason to clash just because their vision was limited.
