Esper X Family – Chapter 451 – Let Her Find Out!

As it turned out, in the face of extreme thoughts, only even more extreme thoughts could prevail.

Fang Ze didn’t fear sacrifice. He could contribute everything he had for his country and people.

Even enduring both physical and mental overload alone was acceptable to him.

At worst, he would die a miserable death in exchange for a chance to allow more people to survive.

He had been playing the role of a nuclear-powered workhorse all this time precisely so that more people could live easier lives.

Now that powerful alien enemies had descended, only by eliminating them efficiently could he prevent them from slaughtering humans at will.

Even a single second’s delay could mean the deaths of tens of thousands of people.

Therefore, Fang Ze was willing to trade his own life for the lives of many powerful enemies whose strength far exceeded S-rank.

It was undoubtedly a very worthwhile deal.

The ability “Law Space” was meant to be used this way!

However, a single sentence from Cheng Muxue cooled down Fang Ze’s overheated brain.

He had carelessly forgotten something.

He was not only an S-rank Esper of the Countermeasures Bureau, but also Ye Yao’s uncle.

This hypocritical familial relationship might not mean much when applied to other people.

The problem was, Ye Yao wasn’t just anyone.

Fang Ze didn’t consider his relationship with Ye Yao to be as good as the one she had with Cheng Muxue, and it might even fall short of the one with Fu Qi.

After all, when he got busy, he had no time to meet Ye Yao at all, let alone talk about familial affection.

However, Ye Yao was an obedient, sensible, and kind-hearted girl.

And now, that damned All-Knowing Demon Eye had broadcast the confrontation live to the entire world.

His and Cheng Muxue’s identities as S-rank Espers had likely already been exposed to Ye Yao.

Rеαԁ oո КаtRеαⅾіnɡСαfе

That in itself was already bad enough.

Given Ye Yao’s personality, she might feel shocked, confused, and worried.

But under those circumstances, she would only set aside all questions and cheer for her family members.

She would wait until afterward to figure out the reasons.

How would she feel if she witnessed her own family member dying on the battlefield?

Fang Ze could gamble that Ye Tong wouldn’t care about him.

But he absolutely dared not gamble on whether Ye Yao would be sad and heartbroken.

Could this be the fuse that would lead to the world’s destruction?

“Cheng Muxue… return the power inside my body…”

Fang Ze became obedient.

People always compromise.

If Fang Ze killed fewer powerful enemies, it might result in numerous casualties.

But if he sacrificed himself to kill a few more, it might become the prelude to the future world destruction.

Thus, he was now willing to prioritize preserving his own life.

“You need to consider the bigger picture more often from now on.”

Cheng Muxue reallocated and returned the power.

The intense mental and physical strain instantly caused the A-rank Espers who had participated in the power transfer to faint.

To put it in other words, a large number of computers had overclocked and crashed under the operation of a supercomputer.

They had used their meager strength to participate in the subjugation of seven alien powerhouses far exceeding S-rank.

Even though Fang Ze and Cheng Muxue were the main forces, the credit for this subjugation would include them as well.

Without the participation of others to share the pressure, Fang Ze’s body couldn’t have withstood the impact of the power at all.

After all, he spent most of his time being a workhorse, leaving him no time to improve his strength, much less the energy to study an exclusive form skill.

Right up until the moment the battle began, his base mental power hadn’t even reached ten thousand.

Therefore, he could only cooperate with Cheng Muxue and join forces with other colleagues to perform a single lethal judgment.

And now, their mission is complete.

Eliminating seven alien enemies in the capital at once had undoubtedly reduced the pressure on others significantly.

They needed rest now, especially Fang Ze, who had nearly suffered a mental meltdown.

As the All-Knowing Demon Eye transmitted the battle report to everyone.

The crowd finally realized that even among the S-rank Espers of the Countermeasures Bureau, there were also monsters who broke the meta.

Was it human to instantly kill seven alien powerhouses in one go?

In just a short time, the Countermeasures Bureau’s battle record had far surpassed that of Sequence Zero’s.

These S-rank Espers of the Countermeasures Bureau were truly formidable!

“Heavens! Lord Fang Ze! You must be the real director of the Countermeasures Bureau!”

“Don’t attribute the credit to a single person! Clearly, Lady Cheng Muxue is the true MVP!”

“Don’t forget the many elites of the Countermeasures Bureau! They all contributed a share.”

“Ahhh! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to have a new page opened in the family genealogy just for you!

Participating in the battle plan to annihilate seven alien powerhouses… if only I could’ve contributed too.

I’d willingly have all my mental power drained!”

“Dream on!”

Among those who participated in this operation, only Cheng Muxue remained clear-headed.

After all, as one of the core members of this operation, she couldn’t afford to bear too much burden. She had to keep her mind clear at all times, otherwise everyone might drop dead due to her mistakes.

Reаⅾ on ΚаtRеaⅾiոgСаfе

The situation just now had been extremely perilous.

Without the effects of his Celestial Form, Fang Ze could only rely on his own body to withstand the power far exceeding his tolerance limit.

Even with others sharing the load through the Mind Network, the only alternative was his body exploding.

However, during the process, Cheng Muxue noticed something strange.

“Just now… did an unknown stream of mental power sneak in?”

As the attribute regulator, Cheng Muxue was naturally extremely sensitive to the total amount and source of mental power.

She could precisely control the flow and consumption of any attribute within the Mind Network.

She had also continuously kept the transport volume of mental power within Fang Ze’s tolerance range.

Maintaining output at the critical breaking point naturally allowed “Law Space” to exert its maximum effect.

However, for a period, a faint stream of mental power appeared within Fang Ze’s body without passing through the Mind Network.

Fang Ze probably couldn’t detect it, since he had long handed over control of his body’s changes in this aspect to Cheng Muxue.

It was all about trusting the “supercomputer”.

Could it be… Ye Yao?

A certain petite figure instantly flashed through Cheng Muxue’s mind.

Inside the Countermeasures Bureau dormitory.

A certain white-haired loli let out a breath.

“Why does this uncle always think about self-destructing at the drop of a hat?”

Ye Yao had nearly been scared to death when the system popped up the “Family Hero mode” option just now.

Rеαd οո ΚatRеαԁіnɡСаfe

Clearly, at that moment, Fang Ze really intended to borrow the attributes of other Espers to take down one or two more alien powerhouses.

It had frightened Ye Yao into immediately using the system’s “encouragement” mechanism, transferring her own meager four hundred mental power over to him.

After all, the danger to Fang Ze’s life came not from the enemy, but from his own insufficient tolerance.

By using “encouragement”, Ye Yao could also utilize the system’s guidance function to save Fang Ze’s life.

Fortunately, Fang Ze had ultimately abandoned the idea of “self-destructing”.

“He must’ve been overworked lately. It seems I’ll have to call him later and tell him to rest more.”

As for the little trick of using “encouragement” just now… surely no one noticed, right?

Looking at the holographic screen displaying Cheng Muxue who was deep in thought, Ye Yao couldn’t help but feel a bit guilty.

But she quickly straightened up confidently.

Whatever, let her find out!

In any case, Cheng Muxue was her person and would definitely keep her secret.

Now, let’s look at the gains from this battle.

Fang Ze and Cheng Muxue together had provided Ye Yao with 10 attribute points. Not as many as family members from Sequence Zero, probably because the familial bond wasn’t deep enough.

But it didn’t matter. As long as the two of them were safe, that was fine.

Author Note

I’m fairly certain I wrote this book well (should be), so there’s no way it would suddenly be banned. This sudden takedown really startled me. Thankfully, it was just a bug. Other books are experiencing the same thing. Fanqie’s programmers should be sacrificed!
