Kerrigan was hidden at a sniper's perch, her eyes filled with shock.
Earlier, she had seen Tao Yu flick out a pair of psionic blades and elegantly slice through the barrage under the mechs' gunfire. The sight had shaken her deeply.
She had known from the start that when he invaded her mind, he had shown restraint. Kerrigan's greatest strength in wielding psionic power lay in invading minds and even reading thoughts.
Once she managed that, she could unleash a mental assault directly, inflicting psychological trauma on her enemies or even rupturing their blood vessels.
But he hadn't attacked her. So afterward, aside from warning her teammates, she hadn't launched an attack herself. Instead, she had released her psionic energy to sense him while moving between several sniper positions to keep up the pressure. She hadn't really wanted to make an enemy of him.
It had worked fairly well. Athrun had managed to board a mech, though unfortunately, Rusty had been killed by a stray shot from the defenders.
Just as Kerrigan was preparing to go in herself and seize the remaining mechs, however, the other psionic like her had burst onto the scene—and displayed a technique that completely overturned everything she knew about psionic power!
"So psionic power can be used like that..."
Tao Yu's movements seemed to have opened a whole new door for Kerrigan.
After all, only a tiny number of people had begun to wield psionic power through genetic mutation. ZAFT had only just started developing some systematic methods to cultivate it, and its research and applications still relied mostly on the instincts of Ghost Agents.
For the most part, Ghost Agents had to figure it out for themselves.
Now, at least, Kerrigan had seen a clear direction!
But when she saw Tao Yu climb into
