Esper X Family – Chapter 247 – Scared to Tears

With a deafening crack.

The eerie blue energy ripple enveloping the Yunited States base, the so-called “Zeus’ Shield” capable of withstanding strategic-level attacks…

Shattered like a glass dome struck by a heavy hammer under Ye Tong’s seemingly casual blow.

There was no earth-shattering explosion.

Only a crisp, almost surreal cracking sound echoing in the hearts of every base personnel who had relied on the shield for a sense of security.

In an instant, the indestructible blue light screen in the sky was covered with spiderweb-like glaring white cracks!

The cracks spread wildly.

Like a shattered ice surface.

The dark blue energy streams twisted and dissipated at the edges of the cracks, emitting a sizzling lament.

The hum suddenly ceased.

Replaced by a vacuum-like silence.

Time seemed to freeze.

Ye Tong slowly retracted her fist.

“Thin as a cicada’s wing. Nothing more than this.”

In the central command hall of the Yunited States base.

On the huge holographic tactical sand table.

The hemispherical light shield model representing “Zeus’ Shield” instantly shattered into countless pixels.

Turning into a glaring red symbolizing “failure”.

On the control console.

All data streams related to the shield madly fluctuated at the same time.

Before zeroing out and turning black in unison.

All officers and technicians, from the highest commander to the most basic operator, froze in their movements.

Whether standing or sitting, their bodies seemed to be under a immobilization spell.

Everyone’s eyes were fixed on the glaring red symbolizing the collapse of absolute defense.

Their mouths opened but no sound came out.

Someone’s tightly held pen fell on the metal floor.

Rеαⅾ оո ΚаtReαdіոɡCafе

The soft “tap” sounded like a thunderclap in the dead silence.

The same was true elsewhere, without exception.

This silence lasted only a few seconds.

Like the suffocating calm before a storm.

Then.

Like an invisible tsunami, fear instantly swept every corner of the base!

“The… the shield… shattered?!”

A staff officer finally found his voice, sharp to the point of breaking, filled with an unbelievable tremor.

This voice seemed to ignite the fuse.

The hall instantly buzzed into chaos!

“Impossible! The rated threshold of the ’Zeus’ Shield’…”

“The data?! All data is lost! The generator is overloaded and burned out!”

“That Dragon Country Esper, she did it!”

Fear spread like a plague.

Some uncontrollably slapped the malfunctioning control console.

Some slumped in their chairs, their eyes vacant.

Inside the base.

The lights flickered violently in the red light of the alarm.

Reflecting countless faces twisted with fear.

Footsteps, shouts, alarms, and the crackling of overloaded equipment mixed together.

Creating a cacophony of doomsday.

Ye Tong hadn’t even stepped into the base yet.

Just tearing open that “shell” had already started the collapse of this fortress from within.

What else could they do?

Three S-rank espers were beaten to a pulp in one encounter.

They couldn’t even cause a bit of damage after using all their technological weapons.

Even the “Zeus’ Shield” protecting them was now shattered.

Facing such an enemy, they had only one feeling:

Rеad on KatReαԁiոgCαfе

Scared to tears!

This was undoubtedly Dragon Country’s second Lou Wei.

Such a terrifying monster, and Dragon Country actually had a second one!

Why does that mysterious Eastern superpower always seem to be favored by heaven?

Watching this scene through satellite equipment, the Countermeasures Bureau and others also took a cold breath.

Fu Qi looked at Lou Wei beside him.

“Was she this strong when she fought you last time?”

Lou Wei’s expression was grave.

“She’s improved, and her ability’s development must’ve also progressed significantly.”

“Incredible, truly incredible. The Yunited States is about to be scared out of their wits now.”

Fu Qi clicked his tongue in amazement.

Having one Lou Wei here had already made them turtle up.

Now, with the addition of Ye Tong, who was full of aggression.

Those people would only be more on edge.

Back at the scene.

Ye Tong casually withdrew the blood armor on her body.

The silver-haired beauty made her appearance again!

Although this thing was quite strong, the smell of blood was too heavy.

It was a bit suffocating.

Disgusting.

Xia Lian landed beside Ye Tong.

She was holding a bruised and battered guy in her hand.

Like a mouse played to the end by a cat.

Xia Lian still maintained her blood armor state.

Seeing Ye Tong withdraw her blood armor, she casually tossed aside the guy who only had one breath left.

“What’s wrong?

Why is White Catty showing a look of disgust?

Isn’t the feeling of being enveloped by my blood wonderful?

The sensation of becoming one is so wonderful~

Just thinking that White Catty is being covered in my blood…

I feel so, so excited.”

Xia Lian’s tone carried a morbid tone.

It seemed that losing too much blood had messed with her mind.

In a sense, this blood armor was indeed made of Xia Lian’s blood.

All in all, it was quite perverted.

Regarding this, Ye Yao could only think inwardly:

S-attribute big explosion ¹ It showed up a few times in the authors’ notes. Apparently it’s a meme that exaggerates daily life stuff that starts with S, like sleeping, studying, shopping, sad, etc. !

Silly dog!

“Mhm, you’ve just stated the reason for my disgust.”

Ye Tong ignored Xia Lian and continued to move forward step by step.

This calm and composed demeanor further highlighted her strength and confidence.

Although actively shedding the blood armor might seem arrogant, it was still better than waiting for the blood armor to disappear abnormally.

The flaw of Myriad Things Fission was similar to attribute fission’s.

The fission duration was affected by base mental power.

Therefore, this set of blood armor could only last for fifteen minutes.

After the fight, she could withdraw it.

Anyway, she, Ye Tong, was immortal!

She would let the blood armor remain on the fragile Xia until the time was up.

To avoid accidents.

Moreover, the current Ye Tong was feeling a bit full of herself.

She had already beaten the S-rank espers of the Yunited States like dogs.

Not only did she take no damage under heavy weapons fire.

She also easily broke the shell enveloping the Yunited States base.

Facing such divine power, if they still dared to resist, even Ye Yao had to admit their “bravery”.

If it were some other country, they would’ve raised their hands and surrendered at lightning speed.

“Hmph! Surrender now. I don’t want to go on a killing spree. Otherwise, I wouldn’t mind erasing your country from this world.”

Ye Tong’s voice, amplified by mental power, reached inside the base.

Although she wasn’t really turning into a Great Night King for slaughter, spooking these guys with threats could lower their psychological defenses.

If they weren’t scared to tears, Ye Tong would have to praise their psychological resilience.

Everyone in the base was indeed startled.

In this era of civilization, there were still people who would resort to “erasing a country”?

Was she a demon crawled out of hell?

Shouldn’t the people of Dragon Country be educated to win with virtue?

Why was this mysterious powerhouse so fierce?

“Report, sir! The Anti-Superhuman Device is fully charged and ready to activate at any time!”

The highest commander regained his senses.

Right!

They still had one last trump card!

The pinnacle of the Yunited States’ wisdom: the Anti-Superhuman Device.

He quickly requested instructions from the Sentinel Commander Byron, asking for his opinion and attitude.

After a few seconds of silence on the communication line.

“Activate the Anti-Superhuman Device.”

Even though Ye Tong had already demonstrated unparalleled combat power.

They still believed that they could turn the tables!
