Before, it was a streak of black light creating a faint sonic boom, its speed exceeding Mach 1. Now, it was moving at two-tenths of that speed at most—about Mach 0.2, or roughly sixty-odd meters per second.
Though still fast, far exceeding the speed of the SWAT officers, it was no longer impossible to intercept in the eyes of Extraordinary Beings like Lei Xiaohui.
The little creature happened to be fleeing right toward Lei Xiaohui. She immediately leaped out and, with a sweep of her hand, summoned a long whip of fire that lashed toward the little fella.
The little fella was surprisingly wary of the flames and scrambled to escape in another direction.
With a sharp cry from Zhao Xueqing, a wall of thorny vines erupted from the ground, blocking the creature's path.
The little fella changed direction again, but this time its luck ran out. In its panic, it blindly scurried right toward Luo Feifei.
