"Bang!"
In just one breath, the three assassins pressed the button, breaking free from mind control.
But after going back and forth, they had already maintained a safe distance.
Chapter 170
Taking a breather, Dean Bai suddenly said, "You said there's someone whose ability is to absorb life force?"
"That's right, what's wrong, teacher?" Wen Jing replied.
Dean Bai had also been trying to figure out the identity of the man in black.
After all, these three assassins are top-tier Awakened could rank among the top twenty on the wanted list, and they have special talents. Each of them is extremely lethal, but no information or achievements have been revealed about them in the past.
In this era of information explosion, it requires tremendous resources and manpower to achieve this.
"I think I've heard of a similar talent before..." Dean Bai said, "I saw it when Old Xie was doing a study. There was a special Wilderness Body ability that was similar, but that was historical data, from hundreds of years ago. That Awakened should be dead by now."
" Awakened has already died?"
Upon hearing this, Wen Jing immediately thought of the C-grade Empowerment Stone he had obtained in the Freshman League, which had no special abilities.
Although the cause of death is unknown, there are only two most likely possibilities for Awakened: first, exploration of the Ancient Wilderness; second, Genetic Collapse.
Regarding the containment of out-of-control Awakened, publicly available information indicates that only the Superpower Core of Awakened at or below Rank C can be bound and transformed into Empowerment Stone.
What if the truth is different, and someone is actually already using it secretly?
If this person Prophet, then the presence of these assassins in front of us makes sense!
Moreover, the strongest combat state of Awakened is when they transform into Wilderness Body, which is also the most energy-consuming state. These assassins are not afraid of death, but none of them transformed into Wilderness Body Form to fight. Instead, they always remained in human form, which is likely a limitation.
Wen Jing Jing's thoughts became clearer as she thought about it, and she quickly shared her guess with Dean Bai.
" The Prophet is involved in a grand conspiracy..." After a moment's thought, she decisively said, "Once we get out, we can't stay in the Federation anymore. We'll use the Door Handle to move to the edge of the battlefield, and then use the battlefield as cover to infiltrate the Empire and make further plans."
"Good!" Wen Jing naturally agreed.
If I were to expose the conspiracy now, no one would believe me.
A single prophecy from the Prophet turned Wen Jing from a promising young man into a target of public criticism. To compete with the other party in prestige was tantamount to courting death.
During their conversation, the two sped forward and finally approached the edge of the Out-of-Control Zone.
They had all been in contact with this out-of-control core and knew that its maximum diameter did not exceed 100 li (approximately 50 kilometers).
However, just when a breakthrough seemed within reach—
Suddenly, Dean Bai's beard trembled, and his golden pupils narrowed into thin lines as he sensed a dangerous aura.
"Not good!"
"Boom--!"
In an instant, an extremely terrifying torrent of energy, seemingly capable of distorting everything, erupted, engulfing the insect and the cat.
On the boundary of the Out-of-Control Zone, a fourth black-clad assassin was lurking silently!
This energy seemed inexhaustible, like a torrent bursting its banks, absorbing not only the initial energy but also various spilled energies that had appeared on the battlefield.
This attack was unavoidable, and its strength was such that even if the two were at their peak, they would have to be careful, let alone now that they were not in good condition.
At the critical moment, Wen Jing was even faster, using his body to shield Dean Bai. Golden patterns shone on his body as the Myriad Transformation Furnace unleashed its full power.
As long as the distance is maintained, her Wilderness Body Wilderness Body still larger than Dean Bai's.
" Little Jing!"
Seeing Wen Jing's body being rapidly obliterated under the beam of light, having been shielded from the fatal blow, Dean Bai's eyes widened in fury.
But the next moment, an insect's head flew out from the stream of light.
"Keep going!"
Sensing Wen Jing's weakened but still present mental fluctuations, Dean Bai's eyes immediately cleared.
She reacted quickly, ignoring the fourth assassin, and seized the opportunity when the assassin released a torrent of energy. She carefully grabbed the insect's head with her mouth, and with a leap, broke free from the lock.
Wen Jing, now with only one head remaining, no longer concealed himself and quickly said to her, "Teacher, I can Clone. Even if this body dies, I still have another life!"
"What?!" Dean Bai exclaimed in shock.
"Really! Believe me!" Wen Jing's attitude was firm and unquestionable, so as not to mislead the teacher into thinking that she was deliberately saying this in order to sacrifice herself.
"That's why I didn't suffer Genetic Collapse. I still have an Clone in the Ancient Wilderness, so if the Prophet is lying in ambush outside, just abandon me at the crucial moment. I won't die!"
Wen Jing has two lives, but Dean Bai only has one.
Her Tactical Glasses spotted the [ Energy Nova ] tag above the fourth lurking assassin's head a moment earlier than Dean Bai's, so at that critical moment, she didn't hesitate to step in front of him.
Wen Jing initially thought she wouldn't be able to withstand the attack, but fortunately, the [ Myriad Transformation Furnace ] and the plastic bag Wilderness Weapon saved her head. Thanks to her superhuman physical strength and regenerative abilities, she survived.
"I see..."
Now that things have come to this, Dean Bai has no choice but to believe her.
The ability to have two lives... perhaps the Prophet truly foresaw a future scenario where Wen Jing could threaten him.
At the same time, Wen Jing took out the Door Handle Wilderness Weapon: "Teacher, bind yourself to it first."
"No, you're ready to use it immediately. Your current condition can't withstand the separation of the Wilderness Weapon." Even if he believed that Wen Jing had a Clone, Dean Bai wouldn't abandon her unless there was no other choice.
Although the teacher and student still have a lot of information to exchange, now is not the time.
Their most pressing and definite goal right now is to escape the Out-of-Control Zone and then move to safety as quickly as possible.
The next moment, Dean Bai finally broke through the boundary of the Out-of-Control Zone.
The world returned to normal, the spatial blockade disappeared, and the two who had escaped the out -Out-of-Control Zone found themselves in a vacuum of space. Unlike last time when they were in an asteroid belt, this time there was no matter in front of them.
However, Dean Bai did not hesitate. He raised his forepaw, intending to use his claws to Rift rift and 'draw' his way out.
Wen Jing held the Door Handle in his mouth, ready at any moment.
However, at that moment... a fifth man in black silently appeared before the two of them.
Upon seeing this person, even at this crucial moment, Dean Bai was struck dumb, as if by lightning, and momentarily lost his composure.
In a vacuum, the hood of the man in black floats, revealing a face with features strikingly similar to those of Dean Bai.
This person is...
The thought had just popped into Wen Jing's mind.
But the next moment, the woman, like the other men in black, remained expressionless and spoke:
" Supernatural Disintegration."
Even though sound cannot travel in space, it was clearly 'heard' by the two people in front of them, or rather, by the entire spacetime itself.
In an instant, all extraordinary powers in this vacuum vanished, forbidden to exist.
Just as this world has never given birth to Awakened, nor has it ever possessed extraordinary power.
Altering the rules of the universe—that's what an S-class Awakened is all about!
Wen Jing considered many possibilities, including the fact that the Prophet could not personally intervene against them—and that was indeed the case.
However, she did not expect that among the assassins that the Prophet could control was an S-class Awakened, and this person was none other than her teacher's mother who had been missing for many years!
The rules changed. The Door Handle Wen Jing had just pulled out disappeared, the Ancient Wilderness entrance in his consciousness vanished, the insect head transformed into a human head, the spatial rift that Dean Bai had just drawn disappeared, and his hand became slender, rapidly transforming back into a human form...
Without the energy support, ordinary people who have lost their superhuman powers would naturally be unable to survive in space.
Furthermore, because the two are Awakened, their bodies had been transformed and strengthened by high-dimensional energy in the past, and their powerful organ functions had become a burden at this moment.
Dean Bai's lungs groaned under the strain of residual air, his eyelids frosted over rapidly from the boiling tears, and the blood vessels beneath his skin swelled and ruptured eerily from the vaporization of his blood...
With only a head remaining, Wen Jing's neck was gushing blood, and his consciousness was drifting aimlessly, severely damaging the consciousness of the Spacetime Amber as well.
But this is not the end.
At the same time, in the void above their heads, a photon cannon formed by an energy Matrix took shape.
At the center of the Matrix, it was as if a divine eye had opened, mercilessly gazing down at the two people below.
Her extraordinary Luck was also shattered; the aura of death had never been so close. Dean Bai felt her consciousness being stretched out, and time flowing more slowly, giving her a little time to think.
What can she do now?
It seems there's nothing that can be done.
Countless fine, pale torrents of photons began to pour down toward the area of Supernatural Disintegration, precisely covering and penetrating every cubic centimeter of space.
No, no...
Dean Bai realized there was one more thing he could do.
" Wen Jing is still alive! She said she still has a life!"
Under the ' Supernatural Disintegration ' rule set by the mother at this moment, there is still a supernatural power that can exist and play a role—that is, the rule she once created.
"Let me Luck one more time."
At the same time this thought arose, the golden fur around Dean Bai's tail, which had not yet fully transformed into a human, suddenly shone with a different light.
A light representing the extraordinary shone in this spacetime devoid of the extraordinary, only to be submerged by a torrent of photons in the next moment.
This shot embodies an extremely high level of technology; the energy level of each photon can directly disrupt the stability of the electron orbit outside the atomic nucleus, and the atomic bonds of the material hit will break instantly.
Within the strike area, neither human bodies, armor, nor space debris exploded. Instead, they were instantly decomposed and vaporized, turning into the most basic particle streams, like ice blocks thrown into an ultra-high-temperature furnace.
