Chapter 526: Xia Lian isn’t from the district?!
To be honest, the defeated trio still hadn't figured out what had happened.
They only sensed an unfamiliar presence suddenly appearing within their perception range.
If it were just a passerby, they might not have reacted so strongly; they would have simply maintained a certain level of vigilance.
After all, a passerby would only enter the edge of their perception range, and if their route was normal, they could be ignored.
However, this mysterious intruder didn't appear at the edge at all, but suddenly barged into the core area of their perception.
What was the difference between this and a ghost jumping right in front of your face?
For people living in such a terrible situation, this was undoubtedly a provocation.
Anyone who wouldn't react to this situation would have to be a Divine Being.
To be able to barge in here so suddenly, they were undoubtedly an extremely powerful Ability User.
Since they were an Ability User, their target was very likely the people here.
Whether they were from the Countermeasure Bureau or another faction, there was a high probability they were an enemy!
Therefore, after sensing the unfamiliar presence, they all attacked at the same time.
However, the enemy was too powerful.
She easily blocked all attacks by herself and cleared them all with incredible methods.
She even controlled them in a single encounter; even the extremely unstable Superpowers in their bodies stopped responding.
Too strong—she was simply too strong.
This was undoubtedly the strongest Ability User they had ever seen, without exception.
Perhaps she was on par with the legendary modern strongest Ability User.
The Jiang Huashen and Gu Wenxin of this parallel space-time could see no hope of victory at all.
Jielao Jiang seemed to have completely given up hope, simply keeping his head down in silence, seemingly having nothing to say.
Jielao Gu, on the other hand, kept staring at Ye Ge.
Although he couldn't tell how strong Ye Ge was, he could vaguely feel that she carried a massive number of lost souls, having undoubtedly caused unimaginable slaughter.
Was she 'evil'?
If it were a moment ago, Jielao Jiang might not have considered such things, only wanting to vent all his accumulated killing intent on the intruder.
But now that his rioting Superpower was suppressed, he naturally regained a brief capacity for thought.
Although the other party carried many lost souls, she didn't feel 'evil' at all.
The Countermeasure Bureau Ability Users who punished evil and promoted good were the same way.
Even if they had taken lives, those they executed were all people who deserved to die.
Could this woman be an Ability User from the Countermeasure Bureau?
If so, their end would just be being placed under control again; in the end, the only one who probably couldn't accept it would be Mu Luo.
It didn't matter anymore.
The Gu Wenxin of this space-time didn't care about this outcome.
Because he could sense that he was straying from his original intentions.
He had originally awakened his Superpower to punish evil.
But if he harmed innocent people because he couldn't control his intense killing intent, he would become the person he loathed most.
Even if the Countermeasure Bureau wasn't that 'clean,' it was still much better than letting a dangerous Ability User lose control outside.
He could only say sorry to Mu Luo.
Unlike Jielao Jiang and Jielao Gu, who had given up the struggle, Jie Xia Lian was still struggling.
To emphasize again, she really hated this black-haired, gold-eyed woman!
The fact that she was easily dealt with could be ignored.
After all, there was really nothing to be done about such a gap in strength.
But what was with that look in her eyes?
That look, like she was observing some rare animal with wonder and mockery—it was completely disrespectful!
She wanted to make her bleed, see her expression of shock, and blow her away!
That was what Jie Xia Lian wanted to do right now.
Unfortunately, these things could only be fantasies.
This woman, whose traits overlapped somewhat with her own, was just too powerful.
Even with all her effort, she couldn't even manage a scratch.
"Kill me or torture me, do as you please."
Jie Xia Lian's tone was extremely cold, with no intention of begging for mercy, appearing very tough.
Ye Ge continued to size up the three of them, slightly sensing their specific Mental Power.
First, the Jiang Huashen of this space-time; after three years, his Mental Power was less than two thousand. It seemed to have been just over a thousand when they first met.
This was understandable; after all, he needed inspiration for everything he did, and being cooped up in one place really didn't leave much room for growth.
Then looking at the Gu Wenxin of this space-time, his Mental Power was just over three thousand, about two hundred more than when they first met, likely from natural growth.
He had stayed in this place the whole time; over the past three years, he probably hadn't executed many bad people.
Like a Nasus in the desert who couldn't get any last hits, it was normal for his stats to be a bit low.
If you stay in the starting village and can't even fight small mobs, how can you talk about leveling up?
As for the last one, Jie Xia Lian...
"How surprising, you're actually not a noob. S-Class Mental Power—how did you do it?"
Yes.
S-Class! The Xia Lian of this space-time actually had S-Class Mental Power!
Ye Yao vaguely remembered that when she first met Xia Lian in the original space-time, her Mental Power was only around three thousand.
As it turned out, after three years in this space-time, Xia Lian had actually achieved a Breakthrough to S-Class and become a true expert!
Barring any accidents, she was likely the youngest S-Class Esper in history, leaving even Luo Jianhua in the dust.
The Xia Lian of this space-time should be twenty years old by bone age, right?
It made Ye Ge look at her with a bit of newfound respect.
To correct things slightly, if the one who had intruded just now had been a conventional S-Class Esper, they really might have been killed by these three.
And since Jie Xia Lian had broken through to S-Class, there was no reason why Mu Luo, who had over four thousand Mental Power three years ago, wouldn't have reached S-Class as well.
In other words, the current 'Sequence Zero' had a total of two S-Class Espers.
If the Countermeasure Bureau knew, they would surely let out a sharp, piercing shriek.
One must know that the top ten sequences who reach S-Class have the ability to destroy a nation; placed abroad, flattening a small country would be a piece of cake.
And although the Dragon Country had powerful experts guarding it, if Xia Lian really went crazy, they might not be able to stop her in time.
Being one step too late could result in a major city being littered with corpses.
The Countermeasure Bureau would certainly have thought of this situation and might have conducted a very intensive search.
The fact that Mu Luo and the others in this space-time hadn't been caught yet could only be described as miraculous.
This also made Ye Ge more and more curious about their lives as fugitives.
"Looking closely, you've only recently broken through. Quite impressive; you really did transform from a noob into a dragon."
Ye Ge slowly circled around Jie Xia Lian.
One must know that before 'Nursery Rhyme' opened the new era in the original space-time, the weight of a promotion to S-Class was generally very high.
It was a limit that was difficult for Ability Users to cross.
Many old veterans had fallen before that natural chasm.
Yet Jie Xia Lian had reached that Realm in just three short years.
Truth be told, she was even a bit more impressive than the Xia Lian 'noob' from the original space-time.
"Huh?"
Ye Ge's few comments almost made the restrained Jie Xia Lian curse out loud.
Who's a noob?
Who are you calling a noob!
Don't let me get the chance!
Ye Ge ignored Jie Xia Lian's Hissing.
"Where are the rest of the people? Where did they go?"
She didn't sense anyone else's presence.
Jie Xia Lian continued Hissing.
"Just kill me, I won't tell you anything."
