Esper X Family – Chapter 706 – The Dayun Truck’s System

Lou Wei’s breath seemed to stop at that moment.

The scene he had least wanted to see was now unfolding before him.

As it turned out, the more you tried to avoid something, the more likely you were to run straight into it head-on.

The worst possible outcome had arrived.

The doomsday prophecy had come true so quickly!

It was said that the world would end in the future, but it never specified that the future was only a few days away!

Everything had happened so abruptly!

Lou Wei’s mind didn’t go blank at this critical juncture. He was still thinking, still searching for a chance to defeat Ye Yao.

One question inevitably surfaced in his mind.

Was the Ye Yao before him really Ye Yao?

Just moments ago, when Lou Wei had extended his senses, he had clearly detected that the girl had already lain down to rest, as if two separate entities existed simultaneously.

Another question was, Ye Yao clearly still hadn’t awakened any abilities, so how had she suddenly erupted with such overwhelming power?

Could a world-destroying ability simply do whatever it wanted, requiring no development time, rising to invincibility right from the start?

More crucially, why did she act as if she knew everything?

It was as if all the Bureau’s recent deployments had been completely leaked.

Not even the entire intelligence division being made up of traitors could explain this situation!

“You… are you really Ye Yao?”

“Hm? Did I scare you? I just asked Father what kind of work he does, and Father wasn’t lying. Your job really is unsuitable for telling family.”

Ye Yao didn’t launch an attack immediately.

After all, she could crush him in a single strike. There was no suspense with the stat gap. She might as well see what choices Lou Wei would make in this emergency.

If this was just about getting payback for her past self, that one counterattack just now would have been enough to satisfy Ye Yao.

After all, in the later stages of the first timeline, Ye Yao had already transformed into Ye Ge and given Lou Wei a thorough beating. After venting her anger, she had never really had that much of a violent streak.

Just seeing Lou Wei’s confidence waver was already deeply satisfying for Ye Yao.

Under the wheelchair’s power, even the Dayun Truck had to kneel!

The next moment.

Ye Yao made her original body, which was still pretending to sleep in the room, vanish instantly. Silently and seamlessly, the two merged into one, not even pretending anymore.

The girl’s gaze was overwhelmingly oppressive, as if she had stepped into a divine domain, devoid of any human emotion.

She had still retained a trace of humanity a moment ago, but after that one second of transformation, Lou Wei could no longer sense any human aura emanating from her.

What he felt was an icy will identical to his own!

Even far, far surpassing it!

“What about now? Give up your illusions. I am the harmless, defenseless Ye Yao in your eyes, and I am also the dangerous figure you believe will actively destroy the world.”

“And now, I have merely fulfilled the prophecy. You should have been prepared. Come and kill me… Only one of us can survive.”

Ye Yao returned all authority over【Wind Rising and Cloud Gathering】to him. Her gaze from above was like a celestial descending to earth, without a trace of jest.

Lou Wei’s nerves were already stretched to the breaking point.

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, as if he were trying to figure out which step had gone wrong to lead to this outcome.

But from the time he had adopted Ye Yao to now, not even a full day had passed. The Bureau hadn’t even had time to scheme, so how had it come to this?

Lou Wei twitched his fingers, feeling the power over wind and clouds return to his control, yet he felt no sense of reassurance at all.

Ye Yao could easily strip away his power and just as easily return it.

Such means were already beyond the scope of any Esper.

The title of the Strongest Esper of the Current Era was nothing but a joke in her eyes!

If Ye Yao truly intended to destroy the world, no one could stop her.

No so-called savior would ever be born!

Lou Wei recognized this truth immediately, and his spirits sank to rock bottom.

He didn’t fear sacrifice, only pointless sacrifice.

Lou Wei had never been a reckless brute. Once he realized that force couldn’t solve the problem, all his will to fight evaporated.

He only wanted to find the root cause and resolve it.

“Do you… hate me?”

Lou Wei asked softly, as if he had found a new path, his resolve hardening once more.

“If I am the reason you want to destroy the world, then I can die.”

Lou Wei thought it over.

Ye Yao’s behavior was too deliberate. A moment of calm reflection revealed that she was intentionally targeting him. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have exposed herself so obviously to provoke a conflict.

The entire sequence seemed to lack any logical coherence.

But Lou Wei only needed to figure out one thing.

Ye Yao was targeting him, and he might very well be the source of it all.

What Lou Wei had to do was solve the problem at its root.

Ye Yao fell into deep thought, as if time itself had frozen.

Huh? Wasn’t he supposed to charge at me and get flattened? Why did he stop fighting? Seems like I revealed too much!

Although Ye Yao hadn’t revealed much information, Lou Wei had indeed caught a glimpse of something amiss.

She had to admit her admiration for the Dayun Truck’s crisis-response intuition.

It was like an instinct for avoiding danger, sometimes able to home in on hidden flaws at the first opportunity.

With a single use of mind reading, Ye Yao felt as if her cover had nearly been blown.

How could this guy be sharper without mind reading than with it!?

Is this the difference between a true expert and a cheater?

Ye Yao was deeply unsatisfied!

She didn’t want to play this game of pushing the Dayun Truck into self-sacrifice.

What she wanted was for the Dayun Truck to give it his everything, fail utterly, and get casually crushed like a roadside nobody.

How else was Ye Yao supposed to have fun?

But then.

A brilliant idea suddenly struck Ye Yao!

Just give the Dayun Truck a cheat, wouldn’t that do?

She absolutely couldn’t let Lou Wei’s rationality dominate. She had to introduce something that would lower his intelligence!

“Ye Jia, activate Creative Mode. Give the Dayun Truck a cheat!”

Ye Yao transmitted her clever little idea to the Heavenly Dao incarnation, who understood instantly.

Mere stat boosts for Lou Wei at this stage would be utterly boring. Combined with his analytical mind and approach, it would only make Ye Yao laugh in exasperation.

Thus, she had no choice but to create a guiding cheat.

No matter how paranoid Lou Wei was, he would have no choice but to seize this opportunity.

What Ye Yao had in mind was a Dayun Truck with a System!

In the gap where time had stopped, Ye Jia quickly produced a system and silently shoved it into Lou Wei’s body.

Time resumed its flow!

Just as Lou Wei was preparing to re-enter the cycle of reincarnation, an incongruous sound suddenly rang out in his mind.
