An Helei's Magic Flames ignited in Chen Ke's hands, and the temperature within a radius of 20 meters centered on him suddenly surged to 70 degrees, continuing to rise.

He looked back at the warehouse door, which was firmly shut with a large iron gate that likely prevented the high temperature of the magic flames from affecting the outside.
"Don't come in, Ms. Harlowin, I'll handle them soon," Chen Ke shouted outside the door, then allowed the temperature of the flames in his right hand to keep rising.
