Wang Hongfei has never told anyone, but he has been feeling very uneasy lately.
If he were to tell soone, that person would probably find it hard to imagine. With a fortune, enough money to buy a city, a thriving career, and at least half of his daily life spent on leisure...
...why would soone like him feel depressed?
But the fact is, he does feel a sense of crisis.
Perhaps he is a more sensitive person, always able to sense danger before others. He believes that this is one of the reasons why his father entrusted the company to him when he was in his early twenties. He was born with a keen sense of sll.
And now, just when his career seems to be at its peak, he realizes that his sense of crisis cos from the extraordinary beings that were once considered impossible in the eyes of the people.
No one knows exactly when these beings first appeared. But when videos of superhumans displaying their powers spread across major websites a few days ago, everyone was forced to recognize the changing tis.
Ordinary people may only think about issues such as social security and dealing with individual powers, but people like Wang Hongfei think more. He imdiately realized that the existence of superpowers not only affects military capabilities and combat, but also gradually infiltrates all aspects of social production.
Perhaps so people will adapt to the changes and take the fast lane, while others who were once in high positions may be eliminated because they are too slow in adapting to the changes.
This is the source of his sense of crisis. He sees the upcoming changes, but has not yet found a direction to integrate into them.
Until tonight, at this specific mont, when he personally ca into contact with the power of the rumored "superman," his life trajectory changed.
He has seen all kinds of people in his life. Those who hold great power, ambitious schers, wealthy tycoons, and even extrely dangerous warlords. But no one has left such an irreplaceable impression on him like the "superman."
Tall, majestic, even if he does nothing and just floats there, he exudes a suffocating pressure that makes even the soul instinctively sob, feeling that he is not in the sa dinsion as himself.
Looking at him is like looking at a new era itself.
That's why when Jiang Bei turned to look at him, this eloquent business tycoon was montarily speechless, like a shy elentary school student.
Electricity crackled under Jiang Bei's feet, sparks burst, and he imdiately felt a void beneath him. He looked down and found that the woman at his feet had disappeared... no, not disappeared, but seed to have transford into so kind of energy state, transforming into an electric current that flew back into the television.
"Well, this is interesting," Jiang Bei raised an eyebrow.
Leng i began to move rapidly. Her entire body seed to transform into electricity, flying from the television into the projector, and then from the projector into the electronic sound system.
Her speed was extrely fast, and blue arcs flickered in the dark enclosed space. The television screen and the broken light bulbs flashed one after another, alternating between blue, green, and white lights, constantly casting the shadows of the people in the room on the walls and floor, making the woman's sharp screams particularly eerie.
Leng i wanted to sneer contemptuously... if she could laugh in this form.
This was her ability. Her body had been transford into an energy form, and she could feel herself becoming the electricity itself. Abandoning her weak physical body made her feel like she had broken free from the cage that had imprisoned her for the first half of her life. Now she was free, becoming unprecedentedly powerful, and more importantly, incredibly fast.
She beca a part of the electric light, and the power grid beca her incubator, the cables her expressway. This was a speed that she couldn't even dream of before, allowing her to do whatever she wanted.
She continuously jumped between various electrical devices in the room, leaving traces of her movent everywhere in the dark. Arcs of electricity connected with each other, forming a storm-like lightning that enveloped the entire room.
No one could keep up with this kind of speed. She was like lightning itself, and in front of her, the world almost stood still. Anything or anyone that she couldn't touch before was now within her reach.
Thinking of this, she flashed out of the projector, and a bolt of lightning burst from her palm, like a piercing spear, directly targeting Wang Hongfei's heart.
It was so fast that he would never be able to feel anything until he died. She even felt that it was too cheap for him to die like this.
However, nothing happened.
In the instant before her electric current was released, Jiang Bei took a step to the side.
Crack.
The electric light hit his chest, crackling and sparking twice, and then it went silent.
Leng i: "What!?"
Was she seen through?
No, that's impossible.
She had been jumping between various devices at lightning speed, so fast that even she was afraid. Even if it was this "superman," she should have lost him a long ti ago.
How could a person keep up with the movent of electricity?
It must be a coincidence, definitely just a coincidence!
While thinking this, she accelerated her jumps once again. Countless transfers in an instant, but just as she jumped from one computer into an air purifier, she saw Jiang Bei already appearing in front of her, making a punching motion.
In that instant, an incomparable panic occupied her mind, freezing every particle of her body.
What was he trying to do? Punch her?
That would be too ridiculous. She was in the form of electricity now, without a physical body. How could soone think they could hit sothing that didn't exist?
It would be ridiculous if he could punch her out of the air purifier...
Boom!
The air purifier was shattered by Jiang Bei's punch, and the shattered parts and white plastic fragnts spread out with the violent impact, and the dense dust rolled like a poisonous cloud.
And amidst the shattered equipnt, a blue electric light flew out and transford into a human form in mid-air.
In the mont of the punch, Leng i, who was clearly intangible, felt a sudden pain in her abdon, and the next second, she was blasted out of the machine by so strange force without any resistance.
At that mont, her mind went blank.
What happened?
Was she hit in her electric form?
By... a fist???
That was the last thought that flashed through her mind.
Leng i, who was forcibly transford back into human form, crashed into the wall and sank into it like a pile of mud, unable to be pulled out.
She didn't move at all.
Wang Hongfei, who saw this scene, also stared blankly, feeling a bit dreamlike in his mind.
He felt like he understood what had just happened, and yet he didn't.
To read the uncut version, go to ].
After all, he was a modern young man who had seen his fair share of fantasy movies and ani. So he quickly understood the power that Leng i had obtained, the ability to transform herself into electricity and jump between electronic devices, as well as release electric currents for attacks.
It was a relatively common electric power in fantasy works, common and quite powerful. For example, the first thing that ca to Wang Hongfei's mind was Electro from the Spider-Man movies, so he quickly grasped the idea. Firstly, regardless of the intensity, this kind of tricky ability almost made oneself invincible, because you couldn't even touch her.
...and then he was knocked out with a single punch.
This was what Wang Hongfei couldn't understand.
This was no longer a question of how strong the punch was, this damn it was ignoring the rules of the extraordinary abilities. It was like that punch contained a law that surpassed the rules of the extraordinary.
It felt a bit like in a competitive ga, where your hero's combo was as fierce as a tiger, showing off your fast hand speed and positioning, pressing the keyboard and breaking the mouse, only to be taken away by the brainless nurical monster with a single basic attack.
Before leaving, he inexplicably glanced at you and muttered, "Fancy moves."
And then he saw the figure, like a god, turning slowly, looking at him, and the cape that was stirred up by the punch's shockwave slowly fell in the dust.
"Wang Hongfei."
Superman didn't speak, but a majestic and powerful voice seed to directly sound in his mind.
"You have been chosen."
