Esper X Family – Chapter 711 – Could It Be That She Intends to Use a Honey Trap?

The atmosphere was deathly silent.

Fu Qi desperately wanted to come to terms with the situation, but no matter how hard he tried to convince himself, he simply could not fathom how such an absurd scenario had come to be.

“Could it be that Lou Wei is trying to get closer to Sequence 001 this way? If she’s a little girl, it might actually make the other party let her guard down…”

Halfway through the thought, Fu Qi hastily dismissed the idea.

Lou Wei’s brain could never come up with such an abstract method!

It would already be a blessing if he didn’t charge in and blow himself up!

Then, another guess flashed through Fu Qi’s mind.

“Could this be a side effect of the mysterious form skill? No wonder Lou Wei kept it hidden… that makes sense now, that makes sense now…”

Although it sounded somewhat unreasonable, Fu Qi desperately needed a plausible excuse to accept this scene. Otherwise, it would consume far too many of his brain cells.

He didn’t want to waste mental energy pondering why Lou Wei had turned into a little girl.

It was way too terrifying.

The higher-ups of the Countermeasure Bureau were having the same reaction.

After all, Lou Wei’s image had long been etched into their minds. He was undoubtedly a combat weapon ready to go all-out at any moment, more macho than any men of steel.

If Lou Wei had turned into a robot, it might not have felt so jarring.

But transforming into such a starkly contrasting little girl was enough to shatter everyone’s worldview.

Even Xiao Jing, who had been anxious and uneasy, couldn’t help muttering.

“If you could turn into this all along, why not just find someone else suitable to be the father and bring a daughter along for the adoption? Wouldn’t that be better?”

At those words, the others snapped out of it.

Rеad оn КаtRеаԁіոgCafе

On second thought, that actually seemed feasible!

Lou Wei was originally only there as a safety net, and playing the role of a father was merely incidental. Changing gender and identity wouldn’t hinder his ability to back them up, and might even win Ye Yao’s approval more quickly.

If being father and daughter wasn’t an option, being sisters could work just as well.

If Lou Wei had done this sooner, those two might not have even fought!

It was just a pity that Lou Wei had kept it from everyone and only revealed this trump card now.

So, the question arose.

What did it mean for Lou Wei to take on this form at such a critical moment?

“Could it be that she intends to use a honey trap?” someone suddenly blurted out.

At that, the others displayed varying degrees of odd expressions: horror, awkwardness, mental turmoil… as if their very perception had been tainted.

Just how far had Lou Wei’s image crumbled?

And someone was adding insult to injury?

“Enough. Stop saying things that upend my understanding… It’s utter nonsense. Just watch in silence. Whether we live or die depends on the outcome of this battle!”

A senior official shut down the conversation before it could veer into even stranger territory, salvaging what little dignity Lou Wei had left.

Unfortunately, it had little effect.

Tu Sheng let out a soft sigh. “Why am I the only one who can’t see it?”

It sounds interesting.

Meanwhile.

On the battlefield.

Lou Weiwei gradually came back to her senses, accepting the fact that she had turned into a little girl in just a second.

Although the change in appearance caught her off guard, the surging power was undeniably real.

With mental power exceeding one million, she felt as if she had stepped into the domain of gods, easily capable of destroying the fragile planet beneath her feet.

“So this is the Sun’s power.”

Lou Weiwei savored the surging energy within her, and confidence reclaimed its high ground. She had never felt so at ease.

Simply by altering her appearance, she could harness stellar power without loss. The cost was so negligible it was barely worth mentioning!

There was not even a sign of losing control, no risk of roasting Bluestar alive.

At most, it had only vaporized a portion of seawater at the moment of activation.

This form skill was definitely ahead of its time!

Lou Weiwei quickly cast aside all distractions, shot into the air, and rose to the same altitude as Ye Yao.

She now had only one question: after obtaining the【Solar Corona Form (Crimson Wheel)】granted by the system, could she shake this awakened world destroyer before her?

But when she extended her perception with mental power exceeding one million, it felt like dropping a stone into the ocean, with no feedback whatsoever.

And the stronger she became, the more she could sense Ye Yao’s sheer terror.

If even a million-scale mental power could not see through her, then Ye Yao’s own mental power had to be even vaster, at least ten million!

Just as Lou Weiwei was mulling this over, Ye Yao finally spoke.

“This form is much easier on the eyes. An expressionless face with a cute model is fairly acceptable. Go on, don’t make me too disappointed, alright?”

At that moment, Lou Weiwei also received a new task from the system.

【Phase Mission Update: Show off your valiant prowess and win over your daughter in the style of a magical girl.】

【Completion Reward: 10,000 base mental power, Magical Girl Bond Gift Pack.】

Lou Weiwei: “?”

What exactly does “win over your daughter in the style of a magical girl” mean?

Rеαd oո КаtRеaⅾіոɡCаfе

Who could understand that?

But Lou Weiwei was not the type to be led around by the nose by the system.

The system mission could wait for now.

Her top priority remained lowering the world destruction progress bar.

“I’m going.”

Little Sister Lou let out a pleasant, melodious voice and immediately charged forward to engage in battle.

This time, she didn’t plan to unleash explosive, destructive attacks.

The stats provided by the Solar Corona Form operated on a planet-busting scale, and any excessively destructive attack could spell disaster for Bluestar.

Given that, she had no choice but to revert to the most primitive combat methods!

Ye Yao read her intentions and maintained an easy smile.

“Come on, don’t hold back. Use your full power! Beyond that, don’t overthink things!”

The next instant.

A searing fist, potent enough to warp space, hurtled straight toward her face, carrying the force to shatter stars!

BOOM!

The terrifying shockwave rippled outward, far more explosive than the blast of tens of thousands of tons of TNT ¹ Early WW II era nuclear bombs are around this scale in power. For example, Hiroshima and Nagasaki are 15 and 20 kilotons respectively. However, modern nuclear bombs can theoretically (since no one actually detonated them) reach hundreds of kilotons. !

Normally, it would have rivaled the impact shockwave that wiped out the dinosaurs ² According to the U.S. National Science Foundation, this impact is equivalent to 100 teratons of TNT, about 4.5 billion times the explosive power of the Hiroshima bomb. !

And yet, this devastating aftermath didn’t bring cataclysmic destruction to Bluestar, as if the entire battlefield was encased within some sturdy barrier.

A guess flickered through Lou Weiwei’s mind. This was most likely a protective measure Ye Yao had deployed so that she could fight at full strength without concern.

The sole on-site spectator, Fu Qi, stood just outside that range.

“That really is Lou Wei!”

After seeing the little girl charge at Ye Yao again, Fu Qi no longer doubted her core identity.

At this moment, the blazing solar radiance faded.

Lou Weiwei’s punch was caught single-handedly by Ye Yao. Even the searing heat, capable of melting any substance, felt no warmer than a freshly steamed bun to Ye Yao.

“A beautiful punch, but lacking in power. By the way, is that supposed to be a magical girl outfit? Yet you fight more like a Sailor Moon ³ The Chinese translation of Sailor Moon is 美少女战士 (Beautiful Girl Warrior). . Go back and practice some more.”

Ye Yao grabbed Lou Weiwei’s wrist, pulled her in with a tug, and flung her away.

The girl instantly turned into a shooting star, slamming into the inner wall of the battle arena Ye Yao had pre-emptively set up.

Boom!

If not for her incredible physical durability and Ye Yao’s restraint, she would’ve been splattered and stuck beyond retrieval.

Coincidentally, she landed in the same direction as Fu Qi.

The actual distance between them was less than ten meters.

“Lou Wei!” Fu Qi’s heart pounded with fear.

He hadn’t expected that even with her trump card revealed, Lou Wei would still be as insignificant as an ant before Ye Yao.

If all else failed, perhaps he should go up and negotiate himself!

But just then, the system in Lou Weiwei’s mind chimed with a new notification.

【Detected a new companion. Would you like to send a party invite?】

Gwah! I tried manually adjusting my bike gears by watching a video, but I couldn’t get it right, maybe the parts were old. I got so stubborn I worked on it from afternoon till night, until I was completely exhausted. I guess I’ll just take it to a repair shop. This money is definitely someone else’s right to earn.
