Chapter 55 00055
55 Chapter - Brothers And Sisters, The Situation Is Urgent Now!
“Who? Who is it! Who wants to kill me?!”
Tang Zhuo was drenched in sweat.
Judging by the commotion heard over the phone, his four brothers were likely already dead.
“The Countermeasure Bureau? No, that’s not right! How could the Countermeasure Bureau be so ruthless?!”
According to their usual modus operandi, they wouldn't execute someone on the spot in an overwhelming confrontation.
They would only request the retrieval of a body if capture was impossible.
A strong will to live forced Tang Zhuo to calm down.
The more he panicked, the less likely he was to survive.
Tang Zhuo suddenly realized he had sensed a strange gaze just now.
He turned his head for a fleeting glance.
The darkness in his vision was stretching indefinitely, like an unknown beast opening its giant maw.
They had found him!
Tang Zhuo’s subconscious told him he absolutely could not confront them directly.
And he had never done anything as risky as directly fighting an Esper.
His life motto was: when in doubt, run!
“Want to kill me? Catch me first!”
Tang Zhuo’s face contorted, and he used all his mental energy to activate his ability.
“Mist Array” operated at full power.
Tang Zhuo’s figure gradually faded into the air.
And the environment in this area was completely enveloped in an unknown mist.
Dense fog with visibility of less than five meters covered the night road.
Such abnormal weather at night was extremely terrifying.
The appearance of the mist was not gradual; it spread out like clouds.
The concentration was highest from the very beginning.
“Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!”
A series of explosions echoed from the main road covered by the thick fog.
The sudden mist obscured drivers’ vision, making it impossible to see the road or obstacles ahead, leading to a violent chain reaction.
“What thick fog! What on earth is going on?!”
“I’ve overturned! Someone help me!!”
Cries of agony and shouts for help came from the road.
In just a dozen seconds.
Traffic was completely paralyzed.
Ye Yao, who had resurfaced, looked at the surrounding mist, her eyes wide.
“What’s going on!? I can’t see anything!”
Mu Luo narrowed his eyes: “His reaction is quite swift; it’s a testament to his years of walking a tightrope.”
Tang Zhuo had reacted after only a few seconds of panic.
He used his ability without hesitation.
He barely managed to hide successfully before they arrived.
Xia Lian looked left and right, her expression a little troubled.
“How are we going to find him? Mental energy perception can’t penetrate this ❖ Nоvеl𝚒ght ❖ (Exclusive on Nоvеl𝚒ght) mist at all.”
Ye Yao had also already noticed the abnormality of this mist.
The mist created by the ability was not ordinary mist.
It seemed to also block mental energy perception.
Even if one’s mental energy was much higher than the opponent’s, it would only mean a slightly longer perception range.
Moreover, Sequence 096 might be able to fully integrate into the misty environment.
Within the range of mental energy perception, he would be no different from an ordinary person.
Finding him in the mist would indeed be quite challenging.
By the time the mist dissipated, the opponent might have already successfully escaped.
At this moment, Ye Yao yearned for the ability of her strict father.
He could probably blow away the fog with a casual wave of his hand.
The longer this fog persisted, the longer the traffic would be paralyzed.
The mist just now must have already caused a large number of traffic accidents.
Ye Yao could vaguely hear the wails coming from the road.
Just like the night of the great fire.
This mist could not be allowed to continue.
“Big brothers and sisters! The situation is urgent, let’s kill Sequence 096!”
Even if Ye Yao hadn’t said that, Mu Luo and the others were already planning to send Tang Zhuo on his way.
Only Wu Mi was different.
Her eyes were bright, and she looked particularly happy.
“Ye Yao actually called me big sister…”
Ye Yao turned to look at Mu Luo, who had the highest mental energy among them.
“Mu Luo, can you find him?”
“I can try.”
Mu Luo leaned down again, using the same ability he had used to find people earlier.
But before he could find his target, he saw someone he didn’t want to see.
“People from the Countermeasure Bureau are coming this way.”
“Wow! Then let’s run!”
Ye Yao almost thought Lou Wei was coming after her, her panicked expression like a startled small animal.
She turned and pulled Wu Mi, ready to flee.
Fortunately, Xia Lian stopped her in time.
“White Cat, what are you afraid of? The Countermeasure Bureau Espers who are coming might not be able to defeat us, and Lou Wei, whom you fear, isn’t here.”
“Huh? That seems to be true.”
Ye Yao calmed down instantly.
She had been traumatized by Great Luck.
Hearing “Countermeasure Bureau,” she had thought the numbers monster was coming.
At this point, Mu Luo said: “There are quite a few A-rank Espers among the people coming; they should be coming for me. I’ll lead the main force away; you all kill Sequence 096 and then leave. I’ll come back to find you after I get away.”
He was well aware of his ability to attract hatred.
This was also his first time acting with companions.
To avoid implicating them, Mu Luo could only lead the Countermeasure Bureau’s main force away alone.
After all, Xia Lian and the others were also wanted targets.
The Countermeasure Bureau would also try to apprehend them if they encountered them.
They didn’t have such strong escape abilities.
Without waiting for an answer.
Mu Luo vanished into the darkness, going alone to attract the Countermeasure Bureau’s attention.
“Mu Luo is gone, how are we going to find Sequence 096?”
Ye Yao hesitated.
She was wondering whether to hand Sequence 096 over to the approaching Countermeasure Bureau.
But this person was the ultimate goal of this family activity.
If they left now.
The family activity might be deemed a failure by the system.
Then how would she get attribute points?
But Sequence 096 was very good at hiding, and he looked difficult to find no matter how she thought about it.
If too much time passed, not only would they not find Sequence 096, but they might also be surrounded by Sequence Espers split into two groups.
Ye Yao felt numb.
Darn it, thinking too much, her brain was so itchy!
Xia Lian placed her hands on the white-haired girl’s shoulders, her tone light.
“Don’t worry, why do you think Mu Luo didn’t take us with him, but instead told us to kill Sequence 096 first?”
“Could it be!?” Ye Yao’s eyes widened.
Besides Mu Luo, there was someone else in the team who could find the target!
“I’ll do it.”
Gu Wenxin stepped forward, his gaze sharp as he looked ahead.
As if this mist had no effect on him whatsoever.
He closed his eyes, entering a state of extreme perception.
Xia Lian squatted beside Ye Yao and explained softly.
“After you said we should act together, we learned about each other’s abilities during the day.”
“Gu Wenxin has a unique talent in the field of finding people.”
“While most of us Espers are still using enhanced perception to find people, he has already abandoned normal perception and instead targets a specific type of person he wants to find.”
Ye Yao vaguely guessed some of the content.
At this moment, Gu Wenxin had already opened his eyes.
The mist in front of him still obscured his vision.
But in his field of vision, the scene before him had already undergone a drastic change.
All obstacles had disappeared.
Only a clean, white space on the same plane remained.
Gu Wenxin saw one flame after another.
The flames varied in size and color.
And in the distance, a huge black flame moved rapidly on the road.
It emitted an incredibly evil aura.
Innumerable wronged souls seemed to be wailing within its core.
“I see you.”
Gu Wenxin leaped up and sprinted towards the target at an extremely fast speed.
A phrase suddenly popped into Ye Yao’s mind.
“Countering is paramount, special attacks are divine!”
