Chapter 195: Little Elysia: As Long As I Can Reach That Place!
After temporarily withdrawing his gaze from Welt, Kevin silently deactivated the 'Active Honkai Reaction' he had been maintaining on his body. Just as Kevin himself stated, he had long since completely mastered this power that originally belonged to him; controlling it effortlessly with every move was entirely possible.
However, the words spoken by Phantylia were not wrong either... Under the erosion of the rekindled 'Power of Finality', Kevin's true physical condition was certainly not as good as it seemed; he simply wasn't showing it.
But this time, even though that power of Finality continued to burn his body, Kevin still had no intention of extinguishing it directly. Instead, after suppressing it to a certain freezing point, he silently hid it away in a corner of his body.
Often, free things are actually the most expensive—nothing in this world is truly gained without effort. For this power that originally did not belong to him, mere pain could already be considered one of the smallest prices to pay.
Over the long passage of time, Kevin had long since lost much feeling for so-called physical pain.
A faint fluorescent light flickered gently. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Kevin's form quietly reverted to its original appearance, and even his torn clothes silently restored themselves to their original state.
You have to admit, such an ability is indeed very useful most of the time.
"Having dealt with matters on the Xianzhou, now I should attend to my own affairs a bit." Sensing the puzzled gazes of Welt and the others, Kevin softly explained before walking past the crowd in a certain direction on his own.
Even without any enhancements, as long as Kevin wished, with his perception abilities, meticulously detecting everything within dozens of kilometers would not be difficult at all.
How could Elysia possibly think that he wouldn't be fully focused on sensing his surroundings during battle and wouldn't discover her simply hiding behind someone else?
No, Kevin didn't believe Elysia was truly unaware of these things. He would stubbornly think, like every parent equally—this mischievous child was doing it completely on purpose.
Moreover, if that fellow really had nothing to hide, why didn't she come forward at this moment? Instead, she just ran away?
At this point, the story has already shifted from "Father and Son" to "Battle Royale".
———— ————
Meanwhile, Little Elysia, who had disappeared from the battlefield at some unknown time, had already stealthily made her way to the entrance of the Scalegorge Waterscape. Just a few more steps and she would be free as a fish leaping in the vast sea or a bird soaring in the high sky.
From this perspective, Little Elysia might truly be a genius—after all, this ability to easily assess situations is not something just anyone possesses. A slightly dumber mischievous child would still be standing there dumbfounded, waiting to get scolded.
And as for the clever Little Elysia? She had long since run off without a trace!
If things continued in this direction, given time, this child would undoubtedly become a qualified undercover agent or spy—coming and going without a trace, simply not someone ordinary people could find if they wanted to.
Unfortunately, this child's parent just happened to be no ordinary person. So... this excellent talent would just have to naturally rot away there.
"Why are these guys still blocking the way and refusing to leave? No, no, I don't have much time; I must act immediately!"
Elysia stealthily hid behind a large rock, clutching a blue camera tightly in her hand. She took a silent glance at Fu Xuan and the Cloud Knights still guarding the entrance to the Scalegorge Waterscape not far away, and an idea immediately formed in her mind.
She quietly picked up her little loudspeaker. A trace of reluctance flashed across her tender little face, but in the next second, she resolutely pressed her finger on the replay button and then discarded it behind a nearby corner with lightning speed.
Moments later, the little loudspeaker behind the corner suddenly emitted the audio she had recorded not long ago, carrying quite the air of a certain loud secret.
"But I heard!"
"I heard!"
"Heard!"
"!!!"
Fu Xuan: "......"
"This... who can tell me what this sound is?"
Upon suddenly hearing the voice of her 'excellent' subordinate, an expression reminiscent of subway, old man, phone instantly appeared on Fu Xuan's face.
One moment she was still worrying about the situation inside the battle due to the upheaval that had affected almost the entire Xianzhou ship, and the next... someone suddenly played this for her?
"Come, follow me to take a look."
Confused as she was, Fu Xuan naturally led several Cloud Knights towards the corner where the loudspeaker was—this instantly gave Little Elysia a brief opportunity!
Although Qingque would probably have to endure a harsh interrogation from her superior later... but Qingque was the one getting scolded; what did that have to do with Little Elysia?
Better my friend die than me—as long as she could protect her own bottom right now!
The moment Fu Xuan and several Cloud Knights entered the corner, Little Elysia immediately seized this brief moment of blind spot and charged towards the exit of the Scalegorge Waterscape—as long as she could leave this place and quickly return to the Alchemy Commission, then with no evidence left, who could say she had sneaked out!
If absolutely necessary, she could just sneak back onto the Astral Express later and leave with everyone; no one would be able to catch up with her!
At this moment, Little Elysia running up the steps looked exactly like a horse frolicking on a racetrack. In just three short seconds, she was already approaching the finish line—the dazzling light outside the Scalegorge Waterscape was so blinding it seemed it would melt her completely.
But it didn't matter; these were just illusions caused by changes in her state of mind. She was now merely one step away from true freedom. Just one step across!
As long as I can reach that place!
Thud—!
"Ouch!"
Who? So mean! Leaving rocks on the steps!
Just as she stepped onto the final step, Little Elysia's short leg suddenly bumped into something. With a thud, she embraced the earth in a full-body sprawl, even sliding a full half-meter forward due to momentum.
You know, such a high-difficulty move isn't necessarily something every girl can pull off.
Just as she was about to get up and see who was so mean-spirited, she suddenly realized—the sunlight that had been shining on her was now completely blocked by something.
"Who... who turned off the lights?"
