"This guy is surprisingly agile. Forget it; I won't deal with her for now." The governor, feeling unable to contend with Kallen, stopped using laser attacks against her and turned his attention to Rulu beside the armored vehicle, intending to take care of him first.

"Don't rush off; come play with me a little longer," Kallen taunted the governor. With a loud "bang," a grappling hook shot out from her chest armor, hitting the governor and wrapping around his feet. Kallen pulled hard on the cable, causing the governor to stumble and fall heavily to the ground.

"You annoying brat..." The governor was infuriated by Kallen. He struggled to shake off the grappling hook, stood up, and charged at Kallen again. Kallen quickly moved away, dodging his attacks. When the governor saw Kallen escape, he turned to attack Rulu, but Kallen charged at him once more.

"She wants to deliberately entangle me." The governor realized Kallen's intention but couldn't shake her off. He shouted towards the Sanctuary troops, "Attack! Go after the rebels!"

At his command, dozens of Sanctuary soldiers armed with guns advanced towards the rebel armored vehicle.

"Don't let them get close! Open fire!" Captain Guan shouted, and the rebels quickly raised their weapons, shooting at the Sanctuary soldiers. Unlike the armored soldiers, the Sanctuary troops couldn't withstand bullets and were quickly suppressed by the rebel firepower, preventing them from getting close in a short time.

"Good, keep it up," Rulu said, continually controlling the gasoline in the barrels to shoot out as fiery tongues towards the governor, burning his body. The governor, entangled by Kallen, couldn't approach Rulu or escape, enduring the flames for five to six minutes.

"Alright, that should be enough." With a wave of his hand, the massive fiery tongue instantly dissipated into the air.

"I... I thought you were going to do something more. Turns out this is all you've got," the governor panted, his black armor glowing red and smoking after being burned for several minutes. Although it had strong insulation properties, he still felt quite uncomfortable inside, but for now, his life was not in immediate danger.

"Hahaha, after being burned for so long, you must feel awful. I'll make sure you cool off," Rulu said with a hearty laugh. He waved his hand, and a white vortex, swirling with small ice shards and about two meters wide, shot towards the governor, colliding with him.

"What?!" The governor was startled. His overheated body felt an icy chill as the temperature of the white vortex was extremely low. The previously heated black armor began to frost over upon contact with the vortex.

The hot armor rapidly cooled, and the black armor started to warp dramatically. There were continuous cracking sounds as fissures appeared on the armor, which was made of high-hardness alloy, showing signs of damage due to the impact of the icy vortex.

"This is bad!" The governor sensed the dire situation and hurriedly tried to flee, but Kallen charged in and delivered a powerful punch to his head.

The governor fell, his head hitting the ground heavily. Kallen leaped high and stomped down hard on the governor's head. With a crisp "crack," the governor's head armor shattered under the relentless impact, exposing the governor's head completely.

"Die!" Rulu shouted, and with a flash of red light, the massive fiery tongue reappeared, engulfing the governor whole.

The governor's pained screams echoed in the flames. With no armor protecting his head, he was directly subjected to the flames. Struggling to rise from the ground, he tried to escape, but Kallen bound his feet with her grappling hook, preventing him from standing and forcing him to continue enduring the flames' torment.

"Please, spare me! I know I was wrong; I'll leave right now!" The governor cried, horrified, as he looked towards Rulu, letting out a pained wail.

Rulu remained unmoved, coldly watching the fallen governor while continuing to control the fiery tongue to burn his body.

As time passed, the governor's hair turned to ash, and the skin on his ears, nose, and face melted like cream, dripping oily liquid onto the ground. White bones began to show through his facial features. Both the Sanctuary soldiers and the rebels watching felt chills down their spines; it was like a living hell, a true purgatory on earth.

"Ah~ ah~ you demon! I curse you! You will not die a good death! I will haunt you as a ghost!" The governor, unable to beg for mercy, shouted angrily, cursing Rulu loudly.

"You... people like you deserve to suffer in the flames and die. Die! This is what you deserve; this is the best retribution for you! Ah hahahaha—" Rulu gritted his teeth, his face twisted in fury as he glared at the governor, shouting. After saying this, he let out a laugh reminiscent of a demon, sending fear through Captain Guan and Kallen.

"Please, please..." After being burned for five to six minutes, the governor's voice gradually weakened. His head's skin, eyes, mouth, and tongue had burned black and rotten, leaving only his teeth and white skull exposed. After a few more minutes, the governor's white skull drooped, hitting the ground with a thud, and he fell silent.

"Uncle Qiao, Nana's mother, may you rest in peace..." Seeing the governor dead, Rulu's face fell, his expression vacant and sorrowful, as if he had sunk into an endless void.

"Rulu, you did well. You're a true man," Captain Guan said, patting Rulu's back with genuine admiration.

"Yes, Rulu, you shouldn't feel sad. You should be happy," Kallen said as she approached Rulu, wanting to comfort him upon seeing his low spirits.

"Hmph, I'm not sad at all. You should be thanking me; I saved you," Rulu replied, lifting his face, frowning, and pretending to be proud.

"Alright, alright, I know, thank you. I'll remember your great kindness," Kallen said in a teasing tone.
