Esper X Family – Chapter 508 – Myriad Things Fission, Song of Ruin

The moment the Sentinel Organization deployed their heavy weaponry, the sheer noise and tremors had already alarmed the ordinary people.

Originally, this was something only the Esper community was paying attention to, but now it seemed impossible to keep everything under wraps.

However, compared to the various national organizations who had some idea of what was happening, most people still thought that a war was about to break out.

Unfortunately, this timeline lacked a certain dedicated “war reporter”, and only the satellites of various nations could roughly observe the battlefield situation.

“After three years of work, this is all you’ve got?”

As the destructive light subsided somewhat, Ye Ge’s figure reappeared in the air.

She still hovered in place, pristine and spotless, not even a strand of hair out of place.

As if the energy collision that could have destroyed an entire nation had been nothing more than a slightly stronger gust of wind to her.

The Sentinel base below her, however, was a scene of utter devastation. Thick smoke billowed and flames leaped skyward, like a carcass gnawed by some giant beast.

There was no doubt that this black-haired woman had the upper hand!

And this was only the result of Ye Ge holding back, with only a portion of the fissioned attacks reflecting back.

Otherwise, under that overwhelming saturation of firepower, the area would have long been leveled.

At this moment, silence reigned inside the Sentinel base. Almost no one could believe what they had just witnessed.

Did this make any sense?

Why hadn’t the Anti-God Weaponry worked?

Wasn’t it advanced equipment specifically designed to counter Espers?

Even if Lou Wei of Dragon Country had descended personally, he couldn’t have emerged unscathed, right?

And yet, this mysterious Esper had somehow survived those devastating strikes and even launched an incomprehensible counterattack!

“This isn’t right! The Anti-God Weapon has no effect on her. Her ability might be an exception. We can’t keep using armed forces! Send out our S-rank Espers to eliminate her!”

Perhaps it was a desperate move born out of panic.

The command center naively assumed that it was a matter of compatibility. With so many strange and varied abilities in the world, some were bound to counter technology.

And the Anti-God Weaponry developed by the Sentinel Organization was precisely what they considered the pinnacle of technology.

The mysterious Esper had just used that same Anti-God firepower to counterattack, which strongly suggested that her ability was specifically targeted against technology!

If so, then sending Yunited States’ S-rank Espers for a decapitation strike was the only option!

That might prove even more effective than the Anti-God Weaponry!

While they were making that decision, Ye Ge had already silently prepared a graveyard for them.

Her vast mental power was operating soundlessly.

Tens of thousands of individuals were instantly locked on and screened.

The dying test subjects locked away in laboratories, the forcibly conscripted logistics personnel, the low-level staff who knew nothing… all the innocent people whose souls hadn’t been completely tainted yet, those unrelated to the core crimes of the Sentinel Organization.

The next moment, countless imperceptible ripples spread across space like the surface of water.

The marked individuals didn’t even have time to react. They merely felt a blur before their eyes, and the world turned upside down!

When their senses returned, the cold, oppressive atmosphere was gone.

In its place was fresh air and… a stretch of unfamiliar wilderness!

“Were we… saved?”

They looked around in confusion, staring at the flames soaring into the sky on the horizon and the faint, muffled rumbles, as if they had woken up from a ridiculous, terrifying nightmare.

Ye Ge, with her supreme power, had stripped away the last of the innocents before destruction descended.

And yet, no one noticed this act.

Currently, on the main Sentinel base, on this land soaked with sin and blood, only the core executioners, the fervent war profiteers, and the cold machines carrying out inhumane experiments remained.

They were the ones Ye Ge truly meant to judge.

Ye Ge hovered above this hell and slowly raised her right hand.

“I’m not in the mood to play with you.”

This time, it was no gentle tap. Her five fingers spread wide, palm facing up, as if holding something aloft in the sky.

“Myriad Things Fission—”

One of the most common tactics in games was to spam the same cheap move.

If it works, you can use it over and over again.

Clearly, the “Myriad Things Fission” move was the most brainless of all.

The ultimate wheelchair!

In the sky, energy orbs formed purely from highly concentrated mental power materialized out of thin air one after another!

They appeared faster and faster, their numbers exponentially increasing!

Ten, a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand… a hundred thousand, a million!

Within moments, the entire sky was completely covered by this dense cluster of mental power orbs!

They hovered, slowly rotating, radiating a terrifying pressure that could freeze the soul and a vast energy capable of boiling the oceans!

When people saw this scene, almost all of them realized one thing:

This was no longer a battlefield. This was a map of destruction woven by a deity’s own hand!

At Countermeasures Bureau headquarters, Fu Qi was dumbfounded.

“Are those for real? If this isn’t an illusion, then with an attack of this scale, is she trying to shatter a continental plate!?”

At that rate, forget Yunited States, the entire planet might be facing a cataclysm!

How was this revenge against the Sentinel Organization?

She was here to end the world!

Not to mention the nations observing from afar.

The Sentinel Organization members facing this “divine miracle” felt their hearts stop on the spot.

Sonnovabitch ¹ 酸萝卜别吃suan luobo bie chi (don’t eat sour radish) is the CN loanword for “son of a bitch” because it sounds like that. !

They talked about blaspheming gods all day long!

And now a real god had descended with judgment!

Which heretic came up with that name? Can they go to hell?

A flood of people fell to their knees and begged for mercy. Countless pleading eyes gazed up at Ye Ge, hoping that she might show a shred of pity.

Hiss! Can we make peace!?

But Ye Ge’s gaze remained ice-cold.

She slowly closed her raised hand, her open fingers shifting into a gesture where her thumb pressed against her index and middle fingers.

A seemingly carefree yet ritualistic gesture aimed at the base below.

As this seemingly effortless motion took shape, the sky-darkening mental-power orbs abruptly stopped their aimless drifting.

The next moment, they began to converge at terrifying speed toward the sky just before her fingertips!

Like rivers flowing to the sea, like stars collapsing into a single point!

An unimaginable amount of energy was being compressed and condensed at a frantic pace!

Space was stretched and torn apart.

A sphere of pure destructive energy was born at the tips of Ye Ge’s fingers!

“Song of Ruin ² As mentioned before, the 歌 Ge in Ye Ge means “song”. .”

A casual name, more for a sense of ceremony than for any real meaning.

Her cold voice ignored the distance, branded directly into the minds of every remaining member of the Sentinel Organization below.

It was the last sound they would ever hear.

The next moment.

Under the desperate, stunned, disbelieving gazes of everyone watching, Ye Ge’s thumb-pressed index and middle fingers flicked outward.

The “sun” fell!

There was no explosion, no world-shattering shockwave. Only absolute, downward crushing and annihilation.

Any matter that touched the energy sphere instantly vanished.

Its stable energy properties left no trace of any explosion.

The land was completely melted away, everything as calm as the setting sun.

The Sentinel main base had met its second destruction at that moment.

At least in Ye Ge’s eyes, it was the second.

She had announced her arrival with absolute violence

Meanwhile, just as the various national agencies were fixated on Ye Ge…

A white-haired little girl secretly found Mo Qiuli’s address.

“I’ll go blow up the ‘toilet’ again later. I wonder how Little Mo’s doing in this timeline.”

Ye Yao mumbled adorably.

No one would have guessed that she was the very same Ye Ge who had been wreaking havoc thousands of miles away.

Then, Ye Yao took a deep breath and knocked on Mo Qiuli’s front door.

Knock, knock, knock—

“Is anyone home?”

Author Note

Sigh, the million-word book test has started, but I feel like I can’t compete with the other big names. I’m afraid I won’t even get a taste of the traffic during the May holiday. I should probably avoid the competition for now.
