Esper X Family – Chapter 245 – Shedding the Skin of Mediocrity! Ascending to Dragonhood!

Ability construct?

Or rather, a visible, conceptually clear substance.

This has always been within the scope of Ye Yao’s Myriad Things Fission.

Whether it’s an ally or an enemy’s, Ye Yao can initiate fission with it.

Launching an attack that involves a numerical concept against her is akin to committing suicide!

It would’ve been fine if Oridin had only launched one claw attack.

At most, Myriad Things Fission would’ve fissioned one copy and neutralized it.

But he launched ten!

What was that if not courting death?

Oridin was instantly hit by ninety crisscrossing attacks.

He didn’t even have time to scream.

BOOM!!!

A terrifying energy wave erupted in the air.

The powerful shockwave spread outwards.

The air seemed to be visibly pushed aside.

Stirring up a massive cloud of dust.

The military base on the ground rippled with energy waves.

Its advanced protective shield blocked the residual effects of the explosion.

Preventing the force, which had far exceeded that of a missile, from damaging the base facilities.

Fortunately, the S-rank Espers’ battlefield was in the air.

If it had been on the ground, the base wouldn’t have remained unscathed.

As the dust settled.

Oridin’s figure remained suspended in the air.

But in the satellite footage, he could barely maintain a human form.

Rеаⅾ οn КatRеαⅾіոgСαfe

His body was covered in dark purple wounds, emitting a decaying aura.

He barely survived.

Although ninety attacks were reflected back, not everything hit him.

After all, it was a net-like pattern, not ninety overlapping energies.

Most of them were detonated by the energy impact, which was extremely dangerous.

Moreover, those ten claw attacks were just probing strikes, not full-power blows.

In a desperate move, Oridin channeled his mental power to form a protective wall, enduring the remaining claw attacks.

Even though it caused him significant injuries, his ability,【Hand of Decay】, allowed him to somewhat mitigate the damage from attacks of the same origin.

Thus, most of the reflected attacks were wasted, and he had managed to endure the rest.

Coupled with his ability to weaken the effect of attacks of the same origin.

Oridin managed to survive with the formidable vitality of an S-rank Esper.

“This power… Is the gap between S-rank Espers really that vast?”

Just a simple probe shattered Oridin’s dao heart.

If those multiplied reflected attacks had hit him at a single point.

Even with his immunity to attacks of the same origin, he would’ve been overwhelmed by the sheer numerical force.

He glanced towards the position of the two girls.

The shockwave hadn’t completely dispersed the thick blood mist.

In fact, it no longer resembled mist.

Instead, it had condensed into a massive sphere of blood.

The staff inside the Yunited States military fortress detected terrifying energy fluctuations from the blood sphere.

It was essentially liquid energy composed of mental power!

The blood mist had long ceased spreading and was now rapidly contracting.

Ye Tong had already used Myriad Things Fission to exponentially split Xia Lian’s blood mist.

What kind of blood mist could an S-rank Esper release?

Rеαd oո KatReαԁіոɡСаfе

It would be a grave mistake to treat it as ordinary blood mist!

Since when could blood mist explode?

It could even create human bombs if collected for blood transfusions.

This was clearly a high-energy substance disguised as blood!

And it possessed remarkable stability!

The thick blood mist was no longer a gaseous state.

Instead, it condensed into a viscous, liquid-like substance, instantly covering both of them.

Under Ye Tong’s precise control, it rapidly compressed, shaped, and solidified!

With the faint yet spine-chilling sound of solidification.

Two sets of blood-red armor, gleaming with the luster of fresh blood, instantly formed on their bodies!

The armor’s lines were sharp.

Exuding an aura of ominousness and absolute defense that chilled the soul.

The helmets covered their faces, leaving only two cold, star-like glints in the eye sockets.

This was inspired by Mu Luo’s Dark Cocoon form.

Ye Tong’s inability to perform attribute fission had left her severely lacking in defense.

Using Myriad Things Fission on her mental energy spheres also had a fatal delay.

In battles between S-rank Espers, even a second’s delay could be fatal.

Ye Tong couldn’t afford to expose any weaknesses.

But now, things were different.

Above the battlefield.

The once sky-obscuring blood mist had almost completely vanished.

It had all been drawn, compressed, and solidified into the two sets of blood armor covering their bodies!

This was Ye Tong’s newfound confidence to ignore the skill startup delay!

Since they needed to control the destructive power to avoid harming innocents.

Rеаԁ oո КαtRеαⅾіոɡСаfe

She simply transformed this transcendent destructive force into defensive power.

As long as it wasn’t Fu Qi’s spatial slash that ignored defense.

No one could break through!

“Wow~ I didn’t expect this kind of application. If it exploded, it could probably flatten this country, right?”

Xia Lian’s eager voice reached Ye Tong’s ears.

Her personality was indeed affected by the deep use of her ability.

Both her tone and words carried a bloodthirsty and manic edge.

She didn’t seem to care that the armor she wore was brimming with destructive power.

Fortunately, she had almost no control over it.

Ye Tong had taken control of the fissioned ability construct.

“If you’re anemic and your brain isn’t working, you can crawl on the ground like a maggot.”

The silver-haired girl began to gather mental power using the ouroboros cycle.

Xia Lian let out a bell-like laugh.

“I’m just a little excited. White Catty is actually so worried about me.

Knowing that I can be easily killed in an S-rank Esper battle, she shared her power to protect me.

I’m so happy! Can I go all out now and help you secure victory?”

To describe the current Xia Lian in one sentence:

Shedding the skin of mediocrity! Ascending to dragonhood!!

This blood armor seemed to provide Xia Lian with an endless supply of energy.

Even when facing several S-rank Espers, she wouldn’t have to worry about her defense being breached.

If it was just a joke before.

Now, she had truly transformed from a “mediocre” to a dragon!

Blood Armor Xia Lian wasn’t mediocre!

The cat-loving Xia Lian was the mediocre one!

Rеаⅾ оո ΚatRеаԁіngСаfе

“No need.”

Ye Tong’s icy gaze swept over the Yunited States base below, which was now plunged into silence and terror.

It was like the gaze of death.

The officers in the base instantly reacted with panic.

“Activate all base weapons! Full barrage!!”

Just one encounter had left the Yunited States’ S-rank Esper nearly dead.

Without even waiting for reinforcements.

There was no way they could let them survive.

As long as they waited for the Anti-Superhuman Device to finish charging, everything would be fine!

Advanced weapons emerged from the ground.

These were specialized weapons designed to counter Espers.

Not only did they possess terrifying physical destructive power, but they could also wear down the mental defenses of S-rank Espers.

They refused to believe that anyone could remain unscathed under such concentrated firepower.

“Fire! Fire! Fire everything!”

Lasers, missiles, and artillery concentrated their firepower on a single point.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

A series of explosions echoed across the Yunited States sky.

Almost making countless Yunited States citizens believe that a war had broken out.

“Is… is Dragon Country attacking!?”
