Esper X Family – Chapter 248 – Dissolved! The Anti-Superhuman Device!
Esper X Family – Chapter 248 – Dissolved! The Anti-Superhuman Device!
The Yunited States couldn’t match Dragon Country in the realm of top-tier powerhouses.
Thus, they took a different path, focusing on technology through ruthless methods.
Their moral standards had long since breached the bottom line.
To develop weapons targeting Espers, they needed a large number of Esper samples.
Espers of different ranks could all contribute to this cause.
But what if the Yunited States didn’t have enough Espers?
Simple.
Just go and take them from other countries!
Even though the Yunited States was overshadowed by Dragon Country, they were still the world’s number one bully!
If they didn’t dare provoke Dragon Country, they could still bully smaller nations.
Those smaller nations were like the Yunited States’ backyard.
Espers born in those lands naturally belonged to them too.
Thus, the Yunited States never lacked Esper samples.
The development of technology through ruthless methods was as fast as a rocket.
One of the great achievements was the “Holy Blood”!
“Holy Blood” was the name of a special serum.
Its core component was extracted from a large amount of material and injected into another Esper, enough to transform them.
Provided that they could withstand the side effects.
The S-rank Espers in the Yunited States were basically products of “Holy Blood” catalysis.
In the Yunited States, the concept of “containment” didn’t exist.
There were also people similar to the early sequences.
Once discovered, those with high Esper potential were not contained but instead forcibly catalyzed to become stronger using Holy Blood.
If they could withstand it, they would become the Yunited States’ new six-star generals.
If not, they would explode and die, becoming mere materials.
The goal was to urgently create a trump card comparable to Lou Wei, enhancing their status internationally.
The only pity was the high failure rate.
Many geniuses had thus perished.

Fortunately, they could find suitable candidates for Holy Blood injection in other countries.
They even dared to secretly reach into Dragon Country’s territory.
Under the influence of special powers, even Dragon Country hadn’t noticed.
Now, a mysterious Esper from Dragon Country had suddenly come to snatch people.
Without any evidence, how could they possibly yield?
In this situation, they could only unveil their killing weapon, the Anti-Superhuman Device!
The greatest technological product of the Yunited States.
Also known as the “Atheism Diffusion Device”.
Once this trump card was played, all S-rank Espers would bow their heads.
“All personnel, prepare for the final battle, send this demon back to hell!”
The supreme commander pressed the conspicuous red button.
The fully charged Anti-Superhuman Device instantly activated.
[Anti-Superhuman Device successfully activated]
There was no deafening roar.
No dazzling energy beams.
Only an indescribable and icy, dead silence of an intangible wave.
With the device’s core as the origin, an intangible force instantly spread out.
In one second, it enveloped the entire base and the surrounding battlefield!
Ye Tong was the first to detect this strange fluctuation.
“Huh?”
What kind of stunt is the Yunited States pulling now?
Are they really going for a desperate fight?
They’re defending their homeland, burning their boats, standing on the moral high ground, so they have their reasons for a desperate fight.
But how dare these shameless guys go all out?
“Stubborn and unyielding!”
Just as Ye Tong was about to charge into the military fortress, Xia Lian beside her made a strange sound.
“Huh?”
Rеαⅾ οn KαtReаԁіոgCαfe
Xia Lian could feel that when the intangible wave swept over her.
The blood armor covering her body showed abnormalities.
The most obvious was the huge issue with stability.
The once solid, liquid metal-like blood armor surface suddenly showed countless cracks like fracturing ice.
The most basic structure of the armor seemed to have encountered the most deadly “solvent”.
“What… what’s going on?”
Xia Lian’s tone was somewhat at a loss.
This blood armor was like residual snow exposed to the scorching sun.
It was thinning and becoming transparent at a visible speed.
Starting from the outer layer, it gradually dissipated.
Xia Lian could clearly feel the energy contained in the blood armor rapidly disappearing.
No.
Not disappearing, but dissolving.
They were no longer under personal control.
Reverting to the purest energy, merging back into the environment.
Ye Yao noticed this scene, her eyes flashing with surprise.
She knew that the blood armor on Xia Lian was an ability construct of ‘Fission’.
Ye Tong could easily control these constructs.
Normally, such fission constructs would only vanish when she released the fission.
But now, the energy was vanishing at an astonishing speed!
In just a dozen seconds, the blood armor had mostly dissolved, revealing Xia Lian’s true form.
Ye Tong quickly released her mental power.
But she found that once the mental power left her body and touched the outside world, it lost control.
To Ye Tong, it still felt like “dissolving”.
Mental power was a special energy within Espers.
Like processed materials that Espers could easily utilize.
Right now, it was like the finished product dissolving into unusable raw materials.

It felt like holding an ice sword, only for it to melt into water and slip away, returning to the rivers.
The energy in the air became incredibly abundant.
That was the phenomenon caused by the dissolving blood armor.
“The condensed mental power and ability constructs are dissolving?”
Ye Tong couldn’t help but be surprised.
The Yunited States had such methods?
Is this their trump card?
In the Yunited States base command room.
Watching the surveillance screen showing the black-haired girl’s blood armor disintegrating.
And the silver-haired girl’s face showing astonished changes.
The supreme commander finally revealed a twisted, grim smile.
This, was the Yunited States’ pinnacle of “technology and ruthless methods”!
This, was their ultimate trump card that gave them the courage to go all out!
Within the range of “Godless Earth”.
Even the strongest Espers would eventually become lambs for slaughter.
S-rank Espers were powerful because they could freely control the vast energy within.
Whether they could learn to use mental power techniques was the dividing line for S-rank Espers.
In battles between S-rank Espers, released mental power played a significant role.
Including mental power barriers for defense, mental power scans for perception, and mental power to support agility like flight.
All these required mental power.
Not to mention some S-rank Espers needed to create ability constructs to support their strength.
Those ability constructs were also a form of energy product.
The “intangible wave” emitted by the Anti-Superhuman Device countered these.
Losing control over their mental power was no different from cutting the arms of those S-rank Espers.
Their strength would be greatly diminished.

No matter how indestructible the blood armor seemed.
Once the Anti-Superhuman Device was fully charged, everything would be fine!
Now, this statement was successfully verified.
Outside.
The scene was broadcast on the Countermeasures Bureau screen via satellite cameras.
“Seems like they’re in trouble.
The Yunited States must have developed something troublesome.”
Fu Qi’s gaze fell on Ye Tong.
Then.
His eyes suddenly showed surprise, and he couldn’t help but lean forward slightly.
Lou Wei’s gaze also became very solemn.
Back on the scene.
Xia Lian exclaimed.
“White Catty, your appearance…”
“Huh?”
Ye Tong realized belatedly, only reacting the next second.
Oh no!
Jiang Huashen’s creation, the “Ye Tong” persona, was also an ability construct!
Author Note
Two jins 1 1 kilo or 2.2 pounds of mandarins in two and a half days is still pretty restrained, right? I shouldn’t be turning yellow, and it’s unlikely that I’ll get a fever! I’ll keep buying them and just eat a little every day!
