Chapter 18 00018
18 Chapter - Terrorist Attack? The Disaster Of Superpowers!
Ye Yao, with her exceptional skill and daring, stood with her arms crossed at the edge of the rooftop, completely unconcerned about falling.
She recalled how, in her youth, she always loved to fantasize about various scenarios to show off.
Now, standing in such a perfect spot, it would be a disservice to her past self not to indulge her chuunibyou spirit.
Anyway, even if she accidentally fell, Mo Qiuli would catch her.
She was already a member of “Sanctuary.”
That much trust could certainly be given.
Of course, it was also fine if she fell.
A Fission could do whatever she wanted.
"Mercury, how did you used to find bad guys?"
"By patrolling in the sky, of course! If I saw something amiss, I'd fly over!"
"You're not a Magical Girl; you're clearly a city manager."
Ye Yao was speechless.
The efficiency was too low.
And it was incredibly troublesome.
Mo Qiuli, at least, had a heart full of passion and faith; anyone else would have quit long ago.
Like Ye Yao.
"I can only accompany you for an hour tonight, Mercury. After an hour, I have to go back."
The Fission could only maintain itself for that long.
Ye Yao actually wanted to accompany Mercury Loli to uphold justice the whole time.
She could just clap her hands and be the hype squad.
"It's okay. I'm already very happy that you can come out with me tonight. I'll send you back when the time is up."
"Thank you!"
Ye Yao was a bit tired of standing, so she simply sat down.
Mo Qiuli, meanwhile, stood beside her, one hand above her eyes, scanning the scene below as if she had clairvoyance.
"Hmm~ Everything's normal. Tonight looks very peaceful. I might have to go to a more secluded place to find bad guys."
"It's good if it's peaceful; that way, you won't be too tired."
"That makes sense. Magical Girls are symbols of love and peace."
"Mercury Loli is so cute~"
Ye Yao loved this kind of pure Loli, without the scheming of adults, and without pretense.
At this moment, Ye Yao suddenly realized.
It turned out she wasn't a Loli-con; she just liked pure social relationships~
Looking at the 5 attribute points that had just arrived, Ye Yao liked it even more.
After all, the task only said to act with Mo Qiuli; it didn't say she had to find bad guys and uphold justice.
It was simply too easy.
System, allocate points for me!
Ye Yao didn't hesitate and decisively added the attribute points to her Mental Strength.
This increased 12 to 17.
After Fission, rounding up, it was another huge boost.
It really wasn't insignificant anymore.
However, Ye Yao still didn't understand what such high Mental Strength after Fission was actually for.
Mental Strength after Fission couldn't increase the number of Fissions.
It seemed to be a pure numerical value.
Overall, her sensory abilities were greatly enhanced.
But the feedback it provided wasn't as significant as the explosive growth in Strength, Stamina, or Agility.
"Mercury, besides strengthening the power of Espers, what else can Mental Strength be used for?"
Ye Yao simply asked Mo Qiuli.
After all, she was the only Loli around who could tell her these things.
"Hmm~ The adults say Mental Strength is a very versatile energy. With practice, it can basically be used as telekinesis, but it's very difficult to master and easily countered by other people's Mental Strength."
"Telekinesis?"
Ye Yao couldn't help but recall yesterday's scene.
When she provoked Lou Wei, pretending to be an intruder, she was suppressed by an unknown force and couldn't move at all.
Perhaps it was pure Mental Strength suppression.
Ye Yao even felt that it wasn't his full power.
Tens of thousands of Mental Strength might even be able to crush a person instantly.
Then Mo Qiuli added another sentence.
"Telekinesis is actually just one way of using it. If you're skilled enough, you can even project it outwards. My 'Mercury Beam' is essentially an application of Mental Strength."
"Oh? Then quickly teach me! I want to use the Tong Yao Beam!" Ye Yao's eyes lit up.
If such an application truly existed.
Wouldn't she be able to reach the level of a planet-destroying cannon in the future?
"I can't teach you!"
Mo Qiuli shook her head righteously.
"This is the effect of an Esper... No, this is magic. I can't explain it to you."
Ye Yao understood.
In plain language, this wasn't a skill everyone could master.
Mo Qiuli could do this entirely by relying on the powerful plasticity of her Esper to master it in advance.
Ye Yao was almost drooling with envy over this "I think I can do it" aspect.
"Don't be discouraged. I believe you, Tong Yao, will be able to do it someday too."
"Mhm mhm~ Then I'll look forward to that day a little bit."
Just as Ye Yao thought this hour would pass uneventfully.
A fiery explosion erupted into the sky.
"Boom!!!"
The enormous sound was deafening, waking countless people from their sleep.
A skyscraper hundreds of meters tall in the distance was seen broken in the middle.
Flames blazed fiercely, like a giant torch, reddening that part of the sky.
Ye Yao was dumbfounded.
What was happening?
Mo Qiuli quickly reacted, her expression becoming very serious.
"Tong Yao, you stay here and don't move. I'm going to save people."
No sooner had she spoken.
Mo Qiuli took off from the ground, flying towards the scene of the chaos.
Only then did Ye Yao react, drawing a sharp breath.
"Terrorist attack?!"
This commotion was clearly not caused by an accident.
A gas explosion wouldn't be that exaggerated!
That left only one answer.
Someone was planning a disaster!
And perhaps not even ordinary people, but dangerous Espers.
Ye Yao began to worry about Mo Qiuli.
"This isn't an ordinary act of mischief, Mercury. If you just rush in like that, won't you be quickly defeated?"
With Mo Qiuli's current stats, dealing with general criminal incidents was more than enough.
But ⊛ Nоvеlιght ⊛ (Read the full story) once she encountered dangerous Espers, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"No, I have to go and see. It doesn't matter if I, a Fission, die, but Mercury Loli can't get hurt."
Ye Yao made up her mind and rushed to the scene.
She should have known to ask Mo Qiuli for a ride.
How long would these short legs have to run to get there?
Only at times like this did Ye Yao dislike being a Loli... A section of the broken building had already crashed onto the road.
Flames were spreading everywhere.
The chain reaction caused by the massive upheaval made the area incredibly chaotic.
The honking of cars and the screams of citizens intertwined.
Against the backdrop of the scorching air, it was like a living hell.
Once this incident was reported, it would undoubtedly be news that shocked the entire nation.
"Hahahahaha!!!"
A figure engulfed in flames let out a demonic, maniacal laugh from within the fire.
"Where are the people from the Countermeasure Bureau? Come out quickly! How's my performance? Can I be selected as a Sequence Esper? If I can't get into the top ten, I'll continue to destroy until I become number one!"
Saying that.
The fiery man waved his hand casually.
The flames, like a whip, instantly tore apart a nearby building, and a few more terrified screams erupted.
"Stop! Cease your atrocities!"
Several blue beams of light arrived first, successfully hitting the fiery man's body, forcing him to stop his killing and arson.
The fiery man felt a searing pain in his body, and his malevolent eyes stared at the petite girl floating in the air.
"Hmph! I thought it was a mosquito biting me. Where did this little brat come from? I don't have time to play house with you."
