Esper X Family – Chapter 615 – There’s Still Another Master?

Although the Watcher Civilization couldn’t match the convenience of Sen Tong and Tu Sheng’s supernatural doxxing.

Their technological prowess was more than sufficient to hack into the Countermeasures Bureau’s network and execute old-school doxxing!

Unbeknownst to anyone, the flagship’s data port had already compiled key information scraped from the Countermeasures Bureau.

In short, what they had obtained this time was truly classified intelligence!

“Discovered special individual【Ye Yao】. She is the convergence point and possibility of all phenomena related to ‘Ye Tong’ and ‘Ye Ge’…”

The analyst’s voice transmitted to everyone present.

A brief silence fell over the flagship’s central chamber.

Wait, hold on.

There’s still another master?

“Ye Yao…”

White Comet repeated the name softly, her delicate brows knitting together.

She waved her hand to pull up the detailed records, her gaze racing across the striking entries.

Among them, a piece of information demanded her particular attention.

“Everything started with a prophecy…”

There was a legendary Prophet on Bluestar. According to the Countermeasures Bureau’s files, this individual could directly foresee the future.

While the Watcher Civilization was frantically building the Evolutionary Divine Machine, she seemed to have already pinpointed the “source of world destruction” ahead of time.

That was why Ye Yao, who initially showed no abnormalities, had been placed under the Countermeasures Bureau’s containment from early on.

Could someone truly accomplish such a feat?

How could a normal being possibly see the future all on their own?

Even if they awakened so-called innate abilities, it shouldn’t be that exaggerated.

Unless the future she sees comes with limitations, and perhaps she can’t actually see everything.

With that thought, White Comet gradually relaxed.

That must be it.

According to the Watcher Civilization’s research, abilities driven by mental power all adhered to a fundamental logic.

That is, one could never exceed their own capabilities.

And according to the files, after delivering her prophecy, that human Prophet’s ability was completely shattered.

Upon careful consideration, there might also be an element of luck involved.

From the Countermeasures Bureau’s records, the information she provided was extremely vague.

This was probably the limit of an individual, far inferior to the stable and efficient Evolutionary Divine Machine.

“Still, to lock onto such an important existence would earn the highest respect even in our Watcher Civilization.”

White Comet silently retracted some of her previous contempt for human civilization.

To her, mindless violence was meaningless; only foresight could lead to a distant future.

Being comparable to the Watcher Civilization’s Evolutionary Divine Machine was something this human Prophet could take pride in.

Although the records noted that the Prophet had regained her abilities after the “Great Awakening Era”, White Comet wasn’t worried that she could foresee events beyond the planet.

Not to mention something as significant as the Watcher Civilization.

Thus, the Prophet absolutely had no knowledge of what was happening in space.

After all, under their【Myriad Analysis】protocol, they hadn’t detected any advance preparations by human civilization for an alien visit.

There was only one possibility: complete ignorance.

“Wow, Tu Sheng got doxxed too. Is this karma for doxxing others? Good thing I’m a law-abiding good kid.”

Ye Yao’s covert observation continued.

Since she had nothing better to do, she might as well watch the Watcher Civilization try to outwit and outmaneuver thin air.

She could always make her move when they actually acted.

White Comet and her team had no idea they were being watched.

Back to the main topic.

Although Bluestar’s Prophet couldn’t compare to the Evolutionary Divine Machine, she had indeed done something remarkable.

She had interfered with the fate of a suspected “source of world destruction”.

So far, no irreversible disaster seemed to have occurred.

They then dug deeper into Ye Yao’s information. The data stream continued to pour in, and more fragments were pieced together.

Sure enough, they found quite a few records.

Setting aside traces of her daily life…

The connections among Ye Yao, Ye Tong, and Ye Ge nearly stunned White Comet and her team.

What did it mean that “Ye Tong” might be Ye Yao’s ability avatar?

What did it mean that “Ye Yao” had split off an uncontrollable dark side entity called “Ye Ge”?

These convoluted bits of information nearly short-circuited their brains.

If that were the case…

Could “Ye Tong” or “Ye Ge” be the actual target?

No, “Ye Yao” remained the central figure, and that wouldn’t change.

“All clues converge on one point.”

White Comet closed the last file and turned to face all the senior officers and strategists in the chamber.

Rеαd оո ΚαtRеaⅾіnɡСαfе

Her voice was clear and resolute, carrying the authority of the fleet’s supreme commander.

“‘Ye Yao’ is the source that might lead to ‘destruction’ in the simulations, or more precisely, she is the ‘key point’ that could either maintain the universe’s stability or trigger its extinction.

She is our target for this mission. That is beyond doubt.”

She paused, sweeping her gaze across the room. “Now, the question is: how should we approach this target?”

Even Ye Yao, who was “stalking” them, couldn’t help but focus.

Although she didn’t fully understand everything yet, the atmosphere conveyed some crucial signals.

Ye Yao believed that she was quite adept at reading the room.

If nothing unexpected happened, they were probably about to formulate a plan.

Soon, the silence was broken, and undercurrents began to surge.

“Commander White Comet.”

A senior officer with deep experience and a steady gaze spoke first.

He represented the cautious, pragmatic faction within the fleet.

“Based on the intelligence we’ve just obtained, any direct hostile or containment action could trigger unpredictable catastrophic consequences, potentially even making our Watcher Civilization the catalyst for ‘universal extinction’.

This violates our civilization’s highest principle of ‘observe, learn, and interfere cautiously’.

I suggest that we adopt the gentlest approach to contact. First, verify the authenticity of the ‘prophecy’, assess the risks, and then transmit all intelligence back to our homeworld for the Supreme Council and the Evolutionary Divine Machine to make the final judgment.”

In the end, the Evolutionary Divine Machine had never provided a concrete solution.

This expedition was merely the Watcher Civilization’s own initiative.

If they brought back more detailed information, they might finally find an answer.

If taking action was truly fraught with risk, even the radical faction, which advocated “decisive first strikes”, would have to weigh the consequences.

“I agree.” another officer echoed.

“The existence of the special individual ‘Ye Yao’ exceeds our authority to handle.

We should maintain covert observation and attempt to establish non-hostile information channels, even if only one-way.

We cannot afford the risks of reckless action.”

Ye Yao observed the entire process. From their micro-expressions, subtle gestures, and tones, it didn’t seem like they were on the verge of confrontation.

However, another distinct undercurrent was brewing.

The faction centered around Gray Marsh outwardly maintained restraint, but the gleam in their eyes betrayed different intentions.

Ye Yao also sensed this peculiar anomaly.

She cast an intrigued glance their way.

Could it be… there’s something fun in store?

I’m back at my rented apartment today! Sigh, everything about home is great, except it’s a bit too remote. I have to drive over ten kilometers to get something like Mixue ¹ or Luckin Coffee ² .
