Esper X Family – Chapter 87 – Are You Deaf?

Ye Yao exited her Fission state.

“System, allocate my points!”

Ye Yao distributed 15 of her unassigned attribute points to her panel.

5 attribute points remained.

Her base attribute had now increased from 60 to 75.

Barely below Wu Mi.

Ye Yao took a deep breath and activated Attribute Fission once more.

This was her genius move that made her blood boil!

【Mental Power: 5,625】

The S-rank bottleneck, which countless Espers viewed as an insurmountable wall, seemed like a thin sheet of paper to Ye Yao.

With just a light poke, she had entered a new realm.

This was the first time Ye Yao had entered the S-rank realm without relying on her ‘Family Hero’ form.

As long as Wu Mi stayed by her side.

This was equivalent to her normal combat strength!

A fully exhilarated smile curled on Ye Yao’s lips.

“That’s right! This is the feeling of stat inflation! Those who can’t keep up with the inflation should just wait to be eliminated!”

Ye Yao snapped her fingers lightly.

A terrifying burst of mental power erupted.

Dazzling light emerged beneath the feet of the three monsters Mu Luo was holding down and whipping.

Followed by simple yet devastating explosions.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The three monsters were blasted into the air by the intense shockwave.

Two of them were almost completely obliterated, leaving behind only fragments.

The black panther enveloping Sequence 100 lost half of its body.

The exposed Sequence 100 was a mangled and bloody mess.

Even the thick-skinned Emotional Beasts couldn’t withstand the outburst of Ye Yao’s S-rank mental power.

A max-level, fully-equipped warrior could deal immense damage even with a basic attack.

Mu Luo reappeared beside Ye Yao, staring at her with a subtle expression.

“Will this have any side effects?”

“Probably not.”

Mu Luo was utterly speechless.

He felt that his Sequence 012 designation was a joke in front of Ye Yao.

Is this the kind of numbers a human can have?

Keep in mind that Ye Yao’s normal mental power was less than C-rank.

And now, she had suddenly erupted with S-rank strength. What was going on?

Stop destroying the common sense of Espers!

Mu Luo finally confirmed one thing.

The Sequence Esper personally monitored by Lou Wei might just be Ye Yao!

Ye Yao was definitely among the top ten Sequences, possibly even in the top three.

“I’ll leave this to you. I need to find the Esper who appeared beside Sequence 100 earlier. He might still be around.”

“Wait, Mu Luo, lend me your ability construct.”

Having reached S-rank, Ye Yao’s perception of the world had completely changed.

Although it wasn’t as exaggerated as the previous 100,000-point value, it was still a monumental shift.

In Ye Yao’s eyes, Mu Luo’s ability constructs were no longer purely physical.

Instead, they were composed of countless energy particles.

These were likely special particles transformed from Mu Luo’s mental power through his ability.

Ye Yao might not be able to directly fission another’s attribute panel yet.

But detached mental power was within her grasp, especially in such a tangible state.

Ye Yao wanted to develop a new skill.

“Do as you wish.”

Mu Luo didn’t know what Ye Yao was planning but nodded, letting her have free rein.

Ye Yao’s hand reached out toward an unrecovered dark whip, her hand forming a loose grip.

An invisible hand of mental power effortlessly bestowed the power of Fission upon it.

“Myriad Things Fission.”

The next second.

Mu Luo suddenly felt that he had lost control of the dark whip.

Reaⅾ оո ΚаtRеаⅾіոgCаfe

The dark whip entered a state of terrifying expansion.

In this small town, it almost transformed into a towering black tree.

Reaching straight for the heavens!

Soon, the colossal black tree lost its original form, dissolving into a pool of water that merged into the earth.

Every corner was enveloped in darkness.

Even the streetlights couldn’t dispel the shadowy tide that swept over the land.

Xia Lian and the others, who were busy clearing out the beasts, quickly noticed this anomaly.

“Mu Luo?”

“No, it doesn’t feel like Mu Luo’s doing.”

Xia Lian’s expression turned serious as she casually struck away a Countermeasures Bureau Esper who was trying to capture her.

With Mu Luo’s strength, he could indeed cause devastating damage to a town or even a city when operating his ability at full power.

But no Esper would easily enter an overclocked state.

Unless it was a life-or-death situation.

As expected, the Countermeasures Bureau Espers sent to handle the supernatural disaster were misled.

The Esper who was sent flying by Xia Lian sat up from the ground.

“Is this supernatural disaster caused by Sequence 012?”

“If you say so, then it is.”

Xia Lian couldn’t be bothered to argue.

Whatever.

Others’ opinions didn’t matter.

It was fine even if they misunderstood.

As long as she could continue petting White Catty when she returned.

At this moment, Ye Yao could finally experience what it felt like to use Mu Luo’s ability.

The darkness stretching across mountains and fields…

All of them are within her arm’s reach.

It felt like she could swallow the entire town into darkness at any moment.

This is【Dark Erosion】.

Ye Yao discovered something.

Anything obtained through Myriad Things Fission could be controlled by her.

The fissioned Dark Erosion particles had become her possessions.

“Since it’s Mu Luo’s power… let’s call this move ‘Curtain Call ¹ 落幕 luò mù. ’ .”

Ye Yao chuckled lightly, fully immersed in her artistry.

“Let’s bring this farce to its Curtain Call .”

As soon as she spoke.

The shadows enveloping the town began to writhe.

The solidified darkness rose like a reversed curtain call.

The dense Dark Erosion particles dragged all Emotional Beasts into the lake of darkness, rapidly decomposing them.

Sequence 100’s ability constructs were, to some extent, also composed of mental particles.

Mu Luo’s Dark Erosion particles even had a devouring function.

Perhaps Mu Luo’s numerical value wasn’t enough to manifest this earlier.

But with Ye Yao’s overwhelming mental power, the effect was immediate.

Now, only the final culprit remained.

Ye Yao looked up at the black panther whose four limbs were restrained by Dark Erosion whips.

With the continuous supply of negative emotions from all directions.

The panther, which had been sliced in half, had not only regenerated but had grown even larger.

With the disappearance of the other Emotional Beasts, all the negative emotions concentrated on it, pushing its mental power close to S-rank.

Sequence 100 wasn’t dead yet.

Perhaps his out-of-control ability was keeping him alive by a thread.

Ye Yao could clearly sense his life force fading.

It seemed that capturing him alive was impossible.

Ye Yao quietly perceived the fluctuations of his mental power.

In the end, it wasn’t able to cross the 5,000-point threshold.

“Looks like this is your limit.”

Ye Yao sighed softly in disappointment.

With a wave of her hand.

The mental threads connecting tens of thousands of residents instantly snapped.

The terror of numerical value was fully manifested at this moment.

The Emotional Beast lost its endless supply.

Even though it had grown enormous, it couldn’t break free from Ye Yao’s restraints.

“Roar! Roar! Roar!”

This massive black panther, infused with the three emotions of fear, madness, and despair…

Seemed to know that its end was near.

The sound waves it emitted even shattered countless tempered glass windows.

Ye Yao casually swiped her hand, slicing its head off.

“I said it’s the Curtain Call! Are you deaf!?”

A deathly silence fell.

The beast’s remains crashed heavily to the ground, as if crushing the final straw.

Its massive body quickly dissipated.

Revealing the already unrecognizable true form of Sequence 100 inside.

He seemed quite dead.

Ye Yao deactivated Attribute Fission, and the fissioned dark tide vanished instantly.

“Mu Luo! Quickly let Wu Mi out to refill me! I-I’m fading!”
