"If you come any closer, I'll kill him."
Harres, who had already flown close to Ji Tianqi, was startled for a moment, then immediately reacted, "If I don't come over, you'll let him fall to his death anyway! If you drag him along, I'll make sure you die!"
As he spoke, the sonic attack was launched, and a visible shockwave spread out, creating a clear space more than three kilometers in diameter amidst the connecting volcanic smoke clouds that covered the sky.
Then, he finally saw Ji Tianqi falling for real.
"Are you using him as a shield, to take him hostage?"
Without caring whether this guess was true, Harres's speed suddenly exploded, once again transforming into a dark streak of light plunging toward Ji Tianqi.
"So clever."
As Ji Tianqi spoke with a smile, he decisively threw Ritter toward Harres, making both of their eyes flash with a hint of joy, but before they could make contact—
Bang!
