Esper X Family – Chapter 253 – Meta Defier

“Fortunately, it seems like she hasn’t been mistreated.

She must be An Qi from the records.”

Ye Tong crouched down and gently brushed An Qi’s long hair aside.

Her movements were careful and delicate.

She was afraid of breaking this girl who seemed as fragile as glass.

An Qi’s peaceful sleeping face came into view.

It looked more like a coma than sleep.

Her cute face appeared extremely haggard under the sickly pallor.

At first glance, she looked terribly unhealthy.

Ye Tong used her mental power to gently lift An Qi and place her in Xia Lian’s arms.

“Wow… She looked so healthy when we first met. How did she turn into a Sick Catty in just a month or two?”

Xia Lian exclaimed in surprise.

She had clearly met An Qi before.

When Mu Luo had brought An Qi back, Xia Lian had tried to approach her.

Unfortunately, the little one seemed a bit afraid of her.

She had muttered something like “Fate tells me to stay away from you”, which was quite hurtful.

Of course, Xia Lian didn’t mind at all.

If she could withstand the hissing of White Catty, such words couldn’t stop her from her journey of loving cats.

It was just a pity that this Purple Catty ran away with the others later.

There was no chance to build a proper relationship.

“She was injected with ‘Holy Blood’, a drug that stimulates Espers.

It has caused severe damage to her body.

Perhaps due to her ability’s effect, she might have fallen into a protective coma.”

Ye Tong had checked An Qi’s body when she entered her God Mode earlier.

At that time, she could feel a chaotic mental power within her.

It was likely the unstable effect caused by the ‘Holy Blood’.

The ‘Holy Blood’ researched by the Yunited States is, in some ways, extremely precious.

Reаⅾ oո KаtRеаⅾiոɡСаfе

It wouldn’t be used on ordinary Espers.

They must’ve noticed that An Qi’s ability was special.

That was why they wanted to create a powerful individual for their own use.

If the ‘Holy Blood’ had worked as intended, An Qi would’ve risen from the bottom tier to become a high-level Esper.

Then, it would’ve been followed with the usual brainwashing routine.

Unfortunately, An Qi fell into a prolonged coma after being injected with ‘Holy Blood’.

The researchers didn’t dare to conduct further studies on this special individual under an unknown condition.

They could only wait temporarily for the next development.

After all, those injected with ‘Holy Blood’ either explode instantly or ascend to greatness.

Such a prolonged coma was extremely rare.

The researchers naturally wanted to observe whether the ‘Holy Blood’ had any other effects.

This phenomenon became An Qi’s golden plate of death exemption ¹ Given by ancient emperors to heroes or very meritorious subjects. Grants a lot of privileges including the death exemption and pardon from crimes except treason, and it works on descendants as well. However, since it can’t save you from all crimes, it’s still a tier lower than a monopoly get-out-of-jail-free card. .

These details were from the paper report Ye Tong had scanned.

In that moment, she had learned everything that had happened to An Qi.

She had also tried to solve An Qi’s problem using “Developer Mode”.

As an almost omnipotent energy, mental power can also repair the body.

The reason S-rank Espers are overpowered is partly due to their incredible healing abilities.

With precise control, mental power can resolve many potential physical issues.

In that instant, Ye Tong had cleared the chaotic mental power within An Qi’s body.

She repaired the potential damage caused by the ‘Holy Blood’, restoring her to her original state.

An Qi should be healthy now.

Although it might take some time for her to wake up.

The moment Ye Tong made contact with An Qi, a system notification echoed in Ye Yao’s mind.

Mental power exceeding four thousand.

This was likely forcibly boosted by the ‘Holy Blood’.

But it also proved that An Qi’s potential is sufficiently high.

Otherwise, she would’ve long ascended to some distant planet.

Ye Tong shifted her gaze to the other side.

She walked a dozen meters to a man lying on the ground.

“Sequence 018, Yu Jin, Ability【Godless Body ² 绝神体jueshenti. 神shen means god and 体ti means body, which is simple. Meanwhile, 绝 is a tricky word that means a lot of stuff. Just look at the dictionary definition: So I just picked something that sounds good and called it a day. 】. Brother, how are you feeling?”

He wasn’t unconscious like the purple-haired loli.

But he seemed a bit unresponsive.

Or perhaps just numb.

Yu Jin lay stiffly on the ground, his eyes vacant, showing no reaction to his surroundings.

When Ye Tong approached and asked, he slowly turned his eyes and croaked out a response.

“Who are you?”

Yu Jin’s numb expression bore the marks of long-term torment, like a lifeless shell.

The dazzling Ye Tong made him instinctively squint, as if he was staring directly into the sun.

She was undoubtedly the peerless powerhouse responsible for this surreal scene.

“Your companion.”

Ye Tong responded simply, unable to resist crouching down and poking the bulging muscles on his arm.

These muscles that was full of strength clearly indicated high stats.

In a fighting game, he would be a top-tier T0 character.

Unfortunately, he still couldn’t compare to Ye Yao’s favorite mysterious grabby man.

“𝚋𝚛𝚘, you’ve been through a lot.

Looks like we’ll have to get Mu Luo and Gu Wenxin to take you on Yunited States dungeon runs later.”

There are still many dark corners in this country.

Reаԁ оn КаtRеαⅾіոɡСαfе

A thorough cleansing is necessary.

Originally, she could slack off without feeling guilty because she hadn’t seen much.

But after a quick glance.

Ye Yao couldn’t ignore it anymore.

This country needs a baptism.

The targets are those parasites who don’t act like human beings.

“Mu Luo? I remember him…”

Yu Jin recalled the scene from his memory.

Mu Luo had brought him out from a place without freedom.

Later, Yu Jin had wanted to follow him and work together.

To acknowledge him as a friend.

But who would’ve thought that Mu Luo didn’t plan to bring anyone along?

Being independent person, Yu Jin chose to leave quietly and find his own path.

But he was worried about being captured again.

Fortunately, on that day, the girl who called herself “Fate’s Favored Daughter” was also leaving.

She said that under fate’s guidance, the Countermeasures Bureau would never find them.

So, An Qi extended an invitation to Yu Jin.

She said that escorting her back to her grandmother’s house would suffice.

But who could have guessed?

The Countermeasures Bureau didn’t find them indeed.

Instead, they were caught by a spatial Esper secretly cultivated by the Yunited States.

“Mm, as long as your brain isn’t messed up. If you died, I’d have no choice but to descend like a king, furiously killing all the bad guys here to send you off.”

Ye Tong glanced at the system’s prompt.

“Hiss—”

Ye Tong gasped.

Where did this Heavenly Tyrant ⁴ JJK reference. Long story short, there’s a setting called Heavenly Restriction where someone is born with limitations but shows greater ability in other areas. In Toji Fushiguro’s case, he has zero cursed energy but has immense physical strength and resistance to curses, which is why he’s called Heavenly Tyrant in China. come from?

Mental power in this power system isn’t that useless.
