Esper X Family – Chapter 37 – We’ll Crush Them!

“What Sequence are you to dare speak like that?”

Jiang Huashen felt that this white-haired loli was utterly clueless about the ways of the world.

She seemed like a child going through her chuunibyou ¹ 8th grader syndrome… that cringe period in your life. phase.

Ye Yao glanced at him sideways.

【Jiang Huashen finds you overly arrogant.】

【Ability: Painting the Common People ² Not an idiom. Common people here refers to commoners and can also be translated as areas where vegetation grows.

Mental Power: 1,123

Strength: 69

Stamina: 122

Agility: 23】

【He needs a lot of inspiration to fuel his creative desire. Static people and scenery can no longer satisfy his artistic needs.】

【Rewarded attribute points will vary based on the amount of inspiration Jiang Huashen gains.】

A premium client indeed!

“Definitely higher than yours.”

Ye Yao had no intention of revealing her Sequence number.

If word got out that Sequence 001 had defected, her main body might face the so-called “fatherly love as solid as a mountain” from a certain stat monster.

Breaking that delicate balance wouldn’t be fun!

Ye Yao turned to Mu Luo.

“Would it be alright if I offered a suggestion?”

“I have no objections.”

Since Ye Yao had already become a companion, she naturally had the right to propose ideas for the group’s future dynamics.

Ye Yao took a moment to gather her thoughts, cleared her throat, and spoke in a high-pitched, childish voice.

“I’m only here for one thing! Aside from slacking off, I only want to slack off!”

“But this place doesn’t offer a comfortable environment for slacking off. The atmosphere is dull and lifeless. I don’t like it.”

“You all need to change. No more rotting here in stagnation!”

Before anyone else could react, a petite figure stepped forward, her eyes bright as she clapped softly.

“Well… said.”

“Wu Mi?”

Ye Yao stared at her in confusion.

【Ability: Cycle

Mental Power: 34

Strength: 6

Stamina: 7

Agility: 8】

【Wu Mi despises monotony and cycles. Once she falls into a repetitive lifestyle, she closes off her heart. Your arrival has shown her a possibility for change, awakening her sealed heart. Reward: 5 attribute points.】

Rеαd οո КаtReαⅾіnɡCafе

An auspicious start!

Ye Yao hadn’t expected the first attribute points to come from this little loli!

Thinking back, most of her attribute points had come from lolis.

Mo Qiuli, Luo Jianhua, and now Wu Mi.

A total of 15 points.

Ye Yao was starting to wonder if she had some special affinity with lolis.

From the system’s explanation, Ye Yao had a basic understanding of Wu Mi’s peculiarities.

Wu Mi’s ability was called【Cycle】.

Mu Luo had mentioned that natural-born Sequence Espers could suffer negative effects from their abilities.

Wu Mi hated monotony and was easily affected by repetitive things, leading to her closing herself off.

When Wu Mi was under the Bureau’s control, she might have been living a repetitive life.

That was why her heart had become sealed.

It wasn’t until Mu Luo approached her with the idea of taking her away that she began to recover somewhat.

Her joy at being taken away was definitely genuine.

But after Mu Luo brought her back, she fell into a repetitive life again.

The problem lay here.

She couldn’t break the cycle herself. Someone else had to initiate the change.

The people here were like scattered sand.

They couldn’t see the problem, let alone solve it.

Only Ye Yao, with the system’s divine power, could truly understand Wu Mi’s needs.

Mu Luo was a bit surprised by this.

He hadn’t expected Ye Yao to actually have some skills, capable of restoring Wu Mi with just a few words.

Xia Lian was also astonished. “Wow, she actually got better now. How did you do that?”

Ye Yao casually added the 5 attribute points to her mental power.

It jumped from 28 to 33.

She could unleash A-rank mental power with one fission now.

Her explosive power had leveled up.

No, perhaps it wouldn’t be so fleeting anymore.

Ye Yao’s mood instantly improved.

“Wu Mi, right? Don’t worry. From now on, you’re with me. I guarantee that everyday will be full of new joys!”

“Mn!”

Wu Mi nodded vigorously, showing a lot of affection for Ye Yao, whom she had just met.

Because Ye Yao was the first person to promise her that every day would be different.

Similarly.

Ye Yao also took a liking to this loli.

Rеad oո КаtRеαⅾіոɡСafе

Not just because she had just given her 5 attribute points.

But also because their stats were surprisingly similar!

Ye Yao was almost moved to tears.

Looking at Loli Mercury and Luo Jianhua…

The former had mental power in the hundreds, while the latter was in the four hundreds.

Their other stats weren’t shabby either.

And what about Ye Yao?

Without fission, she was just a weak, submissive loli.

Anyone could pin her down and ruthlessly pet her.

Now that she found a loli with double-digit and even single-digit base stats, Ye Yao felt an unusual sense of kinship.

Low stats didn’t matter.

There was still room for growth.

As long as the skill set was top-tier!

Ye Yao gently pulled Wu Mi to her side and continued her speech.

“First, we need to change this scattered state of ours. It’s really unsightly.”

Xia Lian remained silent, just smiling and clapping unconditionally.

She was clearly a mindless supporter.

After all, Mu Luo didn’t take charge at all, lacking any semblance of leadership.

A pity, since he was the one who gathered everyone together.

“Team-building, we must have team-building. At the very least, we need to do something together.”

Even normal families have family activities to strengthen bonds.

When people gather, it’s either for classes or work.

At the very least, it’s for gaming.

Mu Luo had brought everyone together but hadn’t come up with a single activity they could all do.

He was obsessed with jungling outside ³ MOBA term. Basically means that dude overfarmed and ignored his teammates. .

Occasionally bringing back another person along the way.

What kind of future did such an organization have?

The Bureau didn’t even need to take it seriously.

They could just catch Mu Luo and the so-called “unbreakable” alliance would instantly collapse.

Xia Lian finally voiced her opinion.

“I agree~ But what can we do? Should we go out with Mu Luo to find new companions?”

Mu Luo pondered for a moment. “Right now, I only know of one place where there might be people like us under containment.”

Ye Yao immediately gave him a strange look.

“You’re not talking about that residential complex earlier, are you?”

“Yes.”

Reαⅾ on ΚαtReadіոɡСаfе

Mu Luo nodded, then frowned.

“But Lou Wei is guarding there, and there might be other powerful Espers.”

“Even if I risk my life to lure Lou Wei away, you all might not be able to infiltrate and bring anyone out.”

Ye Yao had something to say but wasn’t sure if she should.

If Mu Luo’s idea ended up as their first team-building activity, it might just end in a team wipe.

That was way too reckless.

“Wait, how did you know a Sequence Esper is being contained there?”

Ye Yao suddenly remembered something.

She had learned from Lou Wei and Xiao Jing that there was a mole inside the Countermeasures Bureau.

But looking at Mu Luo and his group, they didn’t seem capable of planting a mole.

Mu Luo replied, “I’ve been traveling around, searching for Sequence Espers hidden by the Bureau.”

“I happened to hear that a high-ranking Sequence Esper was being held there.”

“So I went to investigate, but I didn’t expect Lou Wei to be personally guarding the place.”

Mu Luo shook his head again.

“It seems that our companion there can’t be rescued for now. At least not until you all grow stronger.”

Ye Yao tilted her head, suddenly struck by an idea.

“No, there’s actually a way.”

“What?” Mu Luo was startled.

Even he couldn’t break through Lou Wei’s defenses.

Could this loli do it?

“I have a little idea!”

Ye Yao pointed at Mu Luo, her face brimming with excitement.

“You, Mu Luo, go provoke Lou Wei, then buy some time, and I’ll instantly become invincible. Then we can bring them out.”

Mu Luo’s stats were clearly reflected in Ye Yao’s eyes.

【Ability: Dark Erosion

Mental Power: 4,635

Strength: 369

Stamina: 147

Agility: 610】

Nearly S-rank mental power, with other stats in the triple digits.

If Ye Yao triggered the ‘Family Hero’ mode, gained one-tenth of his stats, and then performed fission, she would be invincible!

Destroy the world in the future?

No need for the future!

She could do it today!

Xia Lian couldn’t help but chuckle, patting Mu Luo’s shoulder.

“Mu Luo, you’ll have to sacrifice yourself for White Catty’s invincibility~ We will remember you.”

Mu Luo struggled for a while before finally saying, “Let’s not joke like this in the future. It’s not funny.”

“Tch, don’t believe me then.”

Ye Yao muttered, not pushing the matter.

Lou Wei was truly ruthless, leaving no room for negotiations.

That was clear earlier.

A long-range killing move right from the get-go.

A moment slower, and she would’ve been split in two.

Mu Luo didn’t dare to show himself lightly, fearing that he would be instantly killed.

Buying time was impossible.

This inflated Family Hero mode was out of the question.

Meanwhile, Jiang Huashen had gradually accepted Ye Yao’s presence.

He felt that this loli made some good points.

Many elements were indispensable when creating a perfect work of art.

Changing their lifestyle and doing other things might actually yield better results.

Ye Yao sighed.

“If only a Flame Demon would appear. We could team up and take him down before he causes any casualties. That could be our team-building activity.”

Jiang Huashen raised a hand to ask.

“Wait, who’s Flame Demon?”

He spent all day in his room, immersed in painting, and rarely kept up with outside news.

Mu Luo replied calmly, “A small-time thug who killed and set fires. She killed him in front of the Bureau’s Espers and managed to escape.”

“Impressive.”

“He said becoming a Sequence Esper would allow him to join an organization of Sequence Espers. I don’t know where that rumor came from.”

Then Xia Lian slowly pointed out, “Is it possible that there’s more than one organization of Sequence Espers?”

This struck Ye Yao like a bolt of lightning.

“Right, there’s another type of Sequence Esper.”

If Mu Luo had brought back these relatively harmless Sequence Espers from the Bureau…

Then the other type were those who became Sequence Espers through killing and causing disasters.

If those Sequence Espers banded together, they would form a violent faction.

The organization Flame Demon mentioned might be that kind.

Ye Yao’s thoughts suddenly became crystal clear.

“Let’s go hunt Sequence Espers. That can be our main group activity.”

“With our lineup, we’ll crush them!”
