Esper X Family – Chapter 284 – I Don’t Need It

Ye Tong briefly glanced at the system’s compiled information regarding Fu Qi.

【Fu Qi is pondering whether Mu Luo will become even more reckless in disregarding the Countermeasures Bureau’s authority after growing stronger.】

She was speechless.

It seems that there wasn’t much of a problem with Old Gu.

But why was Mu Luo so… targeted?

Even the busy director of the Countermeasures Bureau felt the need to slander him behind his back.

They were too harsh on the Mysterious Wriggly Man.

All members of Sequence Zero had come from the Countermeasures Bureau.

Their records could be checked.

Ye Tong genuinely hoped that her friend could shake off his bad reputation.

If needed, she could take the blame herself!

If the Countermeasures Bureau’s Sequence Espers were to disappear in the future.

She would just step forward and admit that it was her doing!

Ye Tong didn’t hiss immediately.

Their grievances were quite reasonable.

Anyway, the person in front of her wasn’t the stern father.

“Actually, we plan to cause a scene in the Yunited States. The bad people there have done terrible things to my companions.

I can’t easily take action myself and am worried about my companions getting hurt. That’s why I came to ask for your help. Isn’t that reasonable?”

Fu Qi immediately dismissed his worries.

It turned out that she wasn’t here to fleece the Countermeasures Bureau.

There was no problem then.

They weren’t pleased with the behavior of those people from the Yunited States either.

As official personnel, it was inconvenient for them to act directly.

Letting Sequence Zero cause some chaos would be fine.

After all, they had stirred up much bigger trouble before.

One more wouldn’t be a problem.

“We can teach them. Let them come to the Countermeasures Bureau to learn. It’d take some time to grasp the basics of Form Skills.”

Reaԁ оո KаtReaⅾіոɡСαfе

Fu Qi said.

Ye Tong blinked her eyes curiously.

“How long?”

“At least three days, at most a week.”

“That long?”

Ye Tong voiced her dissatisfaction.

Not to mention her, even Mu Luo and the others might not be willing to wait for that long.

They were likely itching to wreak havoc in the Yunited States right now.

“Is there no secret manual or similar things?”

“No. Having a skilled S-rank Esper teach them is more effective.”

“That’s too slow.”

Ye Tong wore a look of disappointment.

At this moment, the shadows beneath her feet rippled.

There was no need to guess. Mu Luo and Gu Wenxin probably weren’t in the mood to learn Form Skills at this moment.

They believed that their current strength was sufficient.

That there was no need to go through the motions.

“Forget it then. We’re pressed for time. Let’s not learn for now.”

Ye Tong had to postpone the matter.

Mu Luo and Gu Wenxin were already highly capable, high-quality Sequence Espers.

Even if they were outdated, they could probably run rampant in the Yunited States.

When Ye Tong was at the main Yunited States base, she had never seen any Yunited States S-rank Espers using Form Skills.

Perhaps they have used them, but it was undetectable.

Regardless of whether they were effective or not, they were just speed bumps.

The S-rank Espers in the Yunited States might all be counterfeits.

Mu Luo and his friends shouldn’t have any problems.

Fu Qi raised his eyebrows at her words.

Not learning?

Rеаⅾ οn ΚαtRеаⅾіnɡCаfe

Throwing away such a good opportunity?

To give up on such a powerful technique without so readily… seems like they must be in a hurry.

The doom of that group of scum in the Yunited States might be imminent.

“Let’s discuss learning Form Skills later. I have a very important question to ask you.”

Ye Tong’s face brightened with a smile again.

“Uncle, can you also use the Celestial Form?”

As soon as these words were uttered, Lou Wei in the sky couldn’t help but fall into contemplation.

He had only used this Form Skill once in front of Ye Tong.

At the time, there wasn’t enough information, and he had thought that Ye Tong was becoming too arrogant.

To temper her arrogance, he had to leave her with an indelible psychological shadow.

That incident probably left a very deep impression on her.

But it turned out to have the opposite effect.

Not only did it not make Ye Tong more docile.

It made her even more prone to hissing.

Lou Wei had to admit that he regretted not holding back at that time.

Meanwhile, Fu Qi swiftly processed the information revealed in Ye Tong’s statement.

He was very much inclined to release some misleading information.

After all, this was related to his own deterrence.

The more mysterious he was, the stronger he would seem.

He was the director of the Countermeasures Bureau, and acknowledging that he could use the Celestial Form would be enough to intimidate all petty evildoers.

But his intuition told him that he couldn’t lie to Ye Tong.

Fu Qi shook his head.

“No, only Lou Wei can use the Celestial Form.”

“Really?”

Ye Tong seemed a bit surprised.

She thought that the strongest in history would also be able to use it.

So he actually couldn’t?

Why is Uncle so useless!

Reаⅾ οո ΚаtRеаⅾіnɡCαfe

“If only one person can use it, does that still count as a general technique?”

Ye Tong’s curiosity sparked.

“It’s sort of. Just because only Lou Wei can use it right now doesn’t mean it’s not general. It’s just that other S-rank Espers haven’t reached that threshold.”

Fu Qi didn’t hide anything from Ye Tong.

“The Celestial Form was developed by Lou Wei.

According to him, mastering this Form Skill might require one’s mental power to break through ten thousand.

But currently, only Lou Wei has reached that basic mental power threshold.”

Before Lou Wei developed the Celestial Form, there was only the concept of the four Great Form Skills.

With the subsequent addition of “Celestial Form”, it naturally became the Five Great Form Skills.

Although no second person has learned it yet, it was better to include it first.

What if a second person appears?

Fu Qi was the most likely candidate to become the second S-rank Esper to master the Celestial Form.

After all, his base mental power was around nine thousand one hundred, which was not too far from ten thousand.

He might break through that lethal limit in his lifetime.

This left Ye Tong somewhat shocked.

The Dayun Truck’s value is still rising!

She didn’t expect that the ridiculous Celestial Form was actually his original creation!

Nor did she expect the threshold for learning the Celestial Form to be so high.

Can humans really achieve a base mental power of ten thousand?

Ye Tong felt daunted just thinking about it.

Can I learn it with my post-fission mental power?

Fu Qi wasn’t aware of Ye Tong’s thoughts.

“At this stage, the only ones who can theoretically learn the Celestial Form are Lou Wei and you. Do you want to learn?”

“Oh? You actually threw such a question to me?”

Ye Tong displayed a highly interested smile.

Logically speaking, Fu Qi and Lou Wei wouldn’t want her to become stronger.

What did this unexpected query signify?

Rеαԁ οn ΚаtReaⅾiոgСαfe

Unfortunately, Fu Qi hadn’t lowered his psychological defenses.

The efficiency of extracting little essays was quite low.

But it didn’t matter.

She would find out when the main body met him.

Fu Qi couldn’t possibly maintain his utmost vigilance in front of the harmless main body.

Ye Tong gave a disdainful snort.

“I don’t need it.”

Let alone whether she could learn under the condition of attribute fission.

To learn, she might still have to consult Lou Wei.

Fu Qi might instinctively want to smooth over her relationship with Lou Wei.

But how could Ye Tong comply with his wishes?

From the moment she was flattened into a cat pancake by the super Dayun Truck, it already signaled that this struggle would not stop!

When a cat stepped onto the national highway, would it run away from the oncoming Dayun Truck?

No.

It would only hiss, hiss, and endlessly hiss!

Only by smashing the mighty Dayun Truck to pieces could this “grudge” be settled!

Ye Tong elegantly turned around.

“Weaklings need techniques to make themselves stronger.

But I was born strong, I don’t need those things.

Fancy techniques will only lower my purity.”

Ye Tong paused.

“With that said, Uncle… we’ll meet again soon, and it won’t be long until then.”
