89 Chapter - Family Brotherhood

"Honestly, I'm very disappointed in all of you."

In an atmosphere where no one dared to breathe, Ye Yao slowly spoke.

The muffled voice reached the ears of many Espers.

Many Espers frowned at this.

It made people wonder what right this suspect had to express dissatisfaction with the national Countermeasure Bureau in such a condescending tone.

Ye Yao was indeed very dissatisfied.

"Long before our Sequence Zero arrived, Sequence 100 had already triggered an Esper disaster.

We hunted Sequence 100 down immediately, and even cleared out the Esper constructs he created.

But you, who arrived later, not only failed to fully devote yourselves to rescuing the residents from their plight.

Instead, you even diverted your energy to interfere with my companions. I am # Nоvеlight # very displeased."

Ye Yao mused that since Sequence Zero openly dealt with four dangerous high-risk sequences, the Countermeasure Bureau should have been able to analyze their mode of operation.

This kind of "infighting" situation benefited the Countermeasure Bureau by saving time and effort.

It was truly a case of the snipe and clam fighting, and the fisherman profiting.

However, Ye Yao had seen some Espers at the time who not only failed to deal with the Esper constructs harming ordinary people immediately, but instead ganged up to capture Xia Lian and the others.

It gave Ye Yao a feeling that they couldn't distinguish between what was important and what wasn't.

"If it's like this every time, how many people will die?"

At this moment, a leader stepped forward.

If not an S-Class, then a strong A-Class.

"On what grounds do you say these things? A vigilante? Or a dangerous element?

If you understood the history of high-risk sequences' 'illnesses,' you wouldn't say such things."

The leader did not use a condescending tone to communicate with the Black Mist Esper.

Compared to other high-risk sequences who couldn't be reasoned with, this Black Mist Esper seemed exceptionally calm.

Ye Yao still expressed dissatisfaction.

Although he didn't know which 'bad apple' spoiled the whole pot, it didn't stop him from continuing to pressure these Countermeasure Bureau Espers.

"Even if I understood, I would still say these things.

I can disregard the constraints of rules, but I cannot tolerate the existence of Esper scum.

I will look after my people; it's not for you to question."

Ye Yao's tone was incredibly strong, carrying a sense of looking down on the world.

Dare to take her family away?

Even if Lou Wei personally took action, Ye Yao wouldn't allow it!

At worst, she'd go all 'family hero' and beat up her 'old man' (referring to Lou Wei), then return as if nothing happened.

"How will you prove it?"

The leader realized that this mysterious Esper was not a normal person either.

However, his powerful strength made up for this point.

The mental energy fluctuation that erupted just now was so powerful.

It had clearly surpassed the S-Class threshold.

Now only the Black Mist Esper stood there, with no one else around.

Coupled with the inability to see through the other party's concealment, it was enough to prove that the other party indeed had the strength to challenge hundreds of Espers.

The power of S-Class Espers was simply unreasonable.

Human wave tactics were completely useless.

Ye Yao snorted coldly.

"I don't need to prove anything to anyone. If you interfere with our activities again next time, I won't show mercy."

Overwhelming dominance!

The conversation had reached this point.

Anyone with eyes could see that the Black Mist Esper was about to leave.

"After saying so much, are you still not showing your true face? Are you a seated Sequence or an unknown entity?"

"Heh heh, I'm afraid showing my true face would scare you to death."

Ye Yao couldn't be bothered with them.

If she revealed her true appearance, how could she still play the fun and easy family game?

Once the black mist was removed, another family would probably be shattered in less than five minutes.

Ye Yao didn't want to become an orphan again.

"Mu Luo, let's go."

Ye Yao lightly stomped her small foot on the ground.

Shadows quickly swallowed her.

None of the surrounding Espers dared to stop her.

After all, the S-Class Esper hadn't arrived yet.

This place was really remote.

And not every area had a dedicated S-Class Esper stationed there.

An S-Class Esper from another area would take a lot of time to get here without special displacement abilities.

The leader noted down what the Black Mist Esper had just said, then directed the others to clean up the aftermath.

The destruction caused here was so immense.

Even if Espers skilled in reconstruction came to repair it, it would take a considerable amount of time.

Not to mention the many residents whose minds had been harmed.

Even if they didn't lose their lives, they would likely suffer from lingering after-effects.

"Sequence 100's body has been found here!"

"Recover it for investigation. I can't for the life of me figure out how he, a low-ranking Esper, managed to cause a disaster of this magnitude."

But the Black Mist Esper had stated it personally.

And those Esper constructs indeed bore traces of Sequence 100's power.

There must be more to the story that they didn't know... 【Family activity successfully completed, rewarding 10 attribute points.】

Now Ye Yao had 15 unallocated attribute points again!

Unfortunately, she couldn't allocate them yet.

Her current mental power was 75.

If it exceeded Wu Mi's, she wouldn't be able to 'refill indefinitely'.

"Ah~ Tonight's physical activity far exceeded expectations. Having so many punching bags to hit was really stress-relieving."

After returning to the courtyard, Xia Lian let out a satisfied sound.

Those extremely low-quality Esper constructs were only fit to be punching bags in front of Xia Lian.

Ye Yao's side was the real elite monster.

Not even a BOSS.

Gu Wenxin and Jiang Huashen greeted each other before returning to their rooms to rest.

Ye Yao, meanwhile, was thinking about the man in the trench coat.

His causing Sequence 100 to go berserk was definitely not just for fun.

There must have been other motives.

"It must be that strange purple flame! I was just about to look at it when he popped up and snatched it. It must be very important!"

Mu Luo was also deep in thought.

"I'll go out again to search for their traces. Maybe I can find some clues."

"?"

Several question marks appeared above Ye Yao's head.

No, buddy.

Where's the nuclear-powered workhorse?

You can't treat a donkey like that either!

"Don't go out yet. Let me ask you something, how long has it been since you slept?"

Ye Yao's gaze was full of pressure.

Even though she was petite, delicately cute, and looked like a marshmallow with her long white hair, her serious eyes still put pressure on Mu Luo.

Mu Luo didn't answer.

The strong Esper's memory allowed him to clearly remember the last day he slept.

But he couldn't say the number.

Ye Yao didn't need Mu Luo to answer directly.

She'd know by scanning him with the system.

Just seeing that number, Ye Yao couldn't help but feel confused.

Bro, how are you not dead yet?

"Your top priority right now is to rest for a day.

Don't worry about those people from the damn Shelter.

Anyway, all the high-risk sequences who knew information have been dealt with.

Wait until I bring new ones before you get active again.

Do you understand?"

Ye Yao walked up to Mu Luo, raised her small head, and glared at him.

She felt that among Sequence Zero, Mu Luo was genuinely the most abnormal.

It was reminiscent of someone who overworks themselves for years, ruining their body, only to fall seriously ill in old age, leading to the collapse of the family's pillar.

She really had to be both father and mother.

He didn't make anyone feel at ease at all.

Mu Luo could only nod in agreement.

"Mm."

Regarding family hierarchy, at this moment, Xia Lian suddenly burst into Ye Yao's line of sight from the side, with an expression full of anticipation.

"What about me? What about me? It's my turn, Ye Yao, quickly lecture me!"

Ye Yao: "?"

Why was someone actively asking her to 'huff' at them?

You'd be happy if I 'huffed' at you, huh?

"Hmph!"
