Prologue, the red bird brings fierce flames
The helicopter was rapidly approaching in the sky, and the sounds of barking dogs and human voices grew increasingly intense. It was likely the final moments; he slowed his pace and stealthily glanced around the corner. Flames were burning fiercely there, yet they imparted a strangely transparent feeling. Trembling, he tightened his grip on the gun in his hand, and he was the first to see a person standing beside the fire.
In legend, every so often, the phoenix sheds its feathers and dies, only to rise again from the ashes in flames, reborn through fire. The day he chose to escape happened to be the day of the phoenix's rebirth, and the numerous personnel in the organization were all prepared to deal with this fire phoenix. Just as the phoenix was reborn, it was at its weakest moment, which is why the organization's awakened individuals surrounded it. However, with his single shot, a gap was created in the encirclement, allowing the fire phoenix to escape.

I ... ... '' He widened his eyes
The flames of the fire cloud and the burning books illuminated the entire night sky. Several helicopters pursuing from behind were struck by the flames and immediately exploded, crashing down. Red light fell like rain, dotting the forest below. He stared in shock at all of this, then suddenly turned around, only to find the pursuers had already appeared in his line of sight. However, the pursuers were clearly also thrown into a panic by this sudden turn of events, gazing up at the sky, momentarily forgetting to fire their weapons. Soon, expressions of horror appeared in everyone's eyes as they turned to flee. But the pursuers were evidently also thrown into a panic by this sudden turn of events, gazing up at the sky, momentarily forgetting to fire their weapons. Soon, expressions of horror appeared in everyone's eyes as they turned to flee.
There was neither death nor pain, and as the horror receded, he could clearly see himself surrounded by a sea of clear yellow flames, as if enveloped by a large mass of liquid, slowly rising and sinking. There was no sound around him, as quiet as if the world had just been created. He turned to look back; beyond the firelight, everything in the world moved at an exceedingly slow pace. The massive rock wall that had just been propelled forward was caught up by the flames, gradually peeling away, and the shockwave swept through the surroundings like a wave of air, with every tree burning, breaking, and turning to ashes in an instant. Those attempting to escape, along with the hunting dogs, had barely taken a few steps before they were consumed by flames, turning to ash amidst their wails.

The night wind howled as he pressed his hand against the gunshot wound on his shoulder, gritting his teeth and running forward. Above the forest, the sound of helicopter rotors grew louder, and a blinding beam of light swept across the sky. Behind him, the faint sound of barking dogs could be heard.
In the gun he held, there were still two bullets left: one to send to the enemy and one to keep for himself. He had already made up his mind. But before dying, what he wanted to know was why the organization would make such a big deal over the escape of a mere assassin. Not only was there a super-elite assassin group, but even higher-level supernatural beings had appeared.
In the depths of darkness, a voice asked him: "Thank you, what do you want?"
The flames melted gold and corroded iron, and it is unknown how far it surged out from the forest, turning the trees in its path into ashes in an instant. Since the place where the flames erupted was a depression in the mountainside, they swept right past him. However, he felt no heat at all. Looking up, a giant red bird soared into the sky with a soft cry; it was the fire phoenix depicted in Chinese legend
They are the evolutionaries within the organization
As he turned around, the phoenix surrounded by flames swooped down towards him, the shockwave rolling forth, and the massive rock wall used as a handrail suddenly flew away. Then, he saw the phoenix's pair of eyes
He could not figure out what exactly had happened. Years of planning, meticulously chosen timing, and he had staked his life entirely to escape the organization. ... Who would have known that in a moment of crisis, he would discover that tonight was the night with the most stringent defenses in the base ... ... What on earth happened with the library ... ...
Those who call themselves "evolvers" have always hidden deep within the organization. Having reached this point in the organization, I know one or two of them and understand the scope of their management. As an ordinary assassin like myself, it is unlikely that they would intervene against me. Why is that?
Boom
Running at full speed, excessive blood loss caused his vision to begin blurring continuously. When he reached the edge of the forest, a vertical cliff loomed ahead, and with a helicopter hovering above, climbing up was undoubtedly a dead end. He ran along the cliff to the side, where a faint red light emanated from around the corner of the cliff ahead.
These types of evolved individuals often possess extraordinary abilities beyond those of ordinary people. He was unaware of how many psychics had gathered here and did not dare to look too closely, as he only had two bullets. He quietly raised his hand and aimed. He knew this was the last time he would aim in his life
In the line of sight, the ability user faced the flames, yet turned their back to the outside, with their hands spread open, striking a somewhat peculiar pose. If they were an assassin, they would never adopt such an unguarded and dangerous posture, but... who cares...
Blood continued to pour and drip from the gunshot wound, half of his body had already turned cold, and his steps grew heavier. However, he knew that he could not stop at this moment; if he did, it would all be over.
In an instant, he understood everything
The flames engulfed him
With a clenched jaw, the gunshot rang out, and the bullet struck the man's temple, sending his entire body flying. What of the superhuman? Even when shot, they still die, he thought to himself as he suddenly turned the gun towards his own forehead. But in that moment, a strange, soul-stirring cry suddenly echoed. His hand trembled. Then, a massive wall of fire surged past him like a torrent. But in that moment, a strange, soul-stirring cry suddenly echoed. His hand trembled.

I want freedom
