Chapter 127:Slay! Devour Transcendent (Seeking monthly votes) _1
“Support! We need support!” Brother Bi shouted into the communicator, “One of our rookies has been kidnapped! Hurry up, send backup imdiately!”
He looked up at the dusty trail dispersing into the air and cursed under his breath.
His expression wavered for a mont.
Still, breaking his usual rule of retreating when there’s trouble, he drove to follow the others.
Pei Jinye lay quietly in the vehicle, his hands locked by a special device, his Vitality and Psychic Power both suppressed.
His mask had already been removed, and the locator and sensor from Xing Tian left in the ch Body had been skillfully dismantled and thrown away by his captors.
To the left and right of Pei Jinye sat mbers of the Old Gods Association, each wearing a mask. The one driving sped down the road, quickly leaving the Investigation Team’s vehicles far behind.
“Why don’t you just kill ?” Pei Jinye had barely spoken when he took a punch to the stomach. The masked figure responded icily, “Shut up!”
Pei Jinye turned his head, glancing sideways at the man wearing a mask resembling the Red Lotus.
“If you want these eyes, don’t look at like that,” said the Red Lotus Mask coldly.
Pei Jinye’s gaze remained unchanged, a sickly smile slowly appearing on his lips, “Well, go ahead and make your move then.”
The Red Lotus Mask was taken aback.
“Goddamn it!”
Just as he was about to erupt in anger, the mysterious person wearing a white mask, sitting beside him, said sternly, “Ignore him, focus on losing the tail first.”
“Have you contacted Lou Hai?”
“I have, he’s pinpointing our location and will pick us up soon,” replied the White Mask in a low voice.
“What about this kid?” the Red Lotus Mask asked with ill intent.
The White Mask turned to Pei Jinye, “This kid is a bit peculiar… we’ll see about that.”
The Red Lotus Mask squinted his eyes, seeming in a better mood, and whispered into Pei Jinye’s ear, “You’re dead at.”
From the start, abducting Pei Jinye had been an unintended action.
Yet, because of this unintended action, they had successfully seized a hovercar.
Pei Jinye closed his eyes.
Looking at his current attribute panel.
[Vitality Value]: 9-18.2 (Under Spiritual Pressure);
[Stamina]: 9.1-17.8 (Average human value is 1) (Under Spiritual Pressure);
[Psychic Power]: 10.2-17.1 (Under Spiritual Pressure);
The presence of a Spiritual Pressure Item was unexpected.
Such items were rare… at least rare in Da Peng City.
Only those Transcendents from larger places had chances to co across them.
It seed likely that the mbers of the Old Gods Association here had been transferred from the bigger places by the Faceless Elder.
Ever since he had seen the Faceless Elder, Pei Jinye had been under constant ntal stress.
So he planned to use this opportunity to Devour the mory of one of the mbers.
He hadn’t originally intended to do so.
However, they insisted on abducting him, so he simply went with the flow.
Although they used a Spiritual Pressure Item, it didn’t seem to be of high level.
Otherwise, the effect of the Spiritual Pressure would not be quietly dissipating after he activated the Spring Chapter.
All three values were quickly climbing.
Suddenly, the Old Gods Association mber driving the car called out, “How much longer till Lou Hai gets here? Those people behind us are relentless, and it won’t be long before we’re surrounded!”
“Still contacting…” said the White Mask in a deep voice, not hiding it from Pei Jinye, “Three kiloters to our nine o’clock. He is coming to rendezvous with us…”
“Lou Hai showing up ans we’re safe.” The driver suddenly asked, “Has the Elder left?”
“He didn’t say.”
Then ca a muffled grunt.
The White Mask, puzzled, turned his head, but his eyes bulged with surprise the next second.
In his field of vision, the Federation dog who should have been restrained like at on a cutting board sohow produced a small Triangular Military Dagger, which he used to pierce through the Red Lotus Mask’s throat.
Before the White Mask could shout a warning, Pei Jinye’s second Triangular Military Dagger moved as fast as lightning towards his own throat.
However, the driver noticed and sharply turned the car, causing everyone’s bodies to swing out due to inertia.
Almost instantly,
The spot where the White Mask had been sitting was pierced by the Triangular Military Dagger.
The Red Lotus Mask, in his dying monts, grabbed Pei Jinye’s arm while the White Mask, full of terror, stuck to one side of the window, his hand conjuring flas, quickly retaliating against Pei Jinye.
Pei Jinye, expressionless, lunged forward.
The White Mask took the opportunity to attack up close, but his fist, although engulfed in flas, didn’t make contact with Pei Jinye’s body before he felt the car shake violently beneath him, as if tearing apart.
The Vitality bursting out from Pei Jinye was far hotter than the flas on his fist.
His eyes widened as Pei Jinye’s punch surged up diagonally, blowing away the blood mist in the air and blurring the vision through the White Mask.
Boom!
Thunder exploded inside the cab, the wind and thunder reverberated.
The White Mask’s heart was left pounding.
“What in the world is this guy’s background? If he is so strong, why was he captured so easily before?”
“Could it be!”
“All of this was planned by him!”
The White Mask felt a sudden chill down his spine.
The driver suddenly turned around, side-stepping with a Longsword in hand and thrusting it towards Pei Jinye’s lower back.
“Crack!”
Pei Jinye’s Physical Body was unhard.
Instead, the Longsword broke on the spot.
The driver was also stunned.
Was this Physical Body made of iron?
The next mont,
The car sounded like it had been hit by a heavy hamr.
The hovercar, speeding mid-air, abruptly stalled, and flung out like a tossed sack.
Countless car components, like spinning tops, burst outward from the rapidly tumbling hovercar and scattered in all directions.
Blood droplets scattered in all directions, like a torrential downpour.
The white mask rolled into the bushes; beneath the shattered mask was a face covered in blood, and the entire left arm was twisted lifelessly on the ground, its bones completely shattered.
Under the massive impact,
his internal organs had all suffered varying degrees of injury.
With difficulty, his right hand fished out a communicator, but before the white mask could dial that number, a pair of high-top combat boots brutally stomped on his hand.
Amidst screams of agony, the white mask was directly grabbed by the hair and yanked up.
Then, a cold voice leaped out from the darkness illuminated by flas.
“Enter the Dream!”
Countless mories flooded into Pei Jinye’s mind.
Protected by his ch body, he was spared from the calamity of the car accident.
Now turning his head, his gaze lingered darkly in a certain direction, at the very mont the hover car malfunctioned, the driver vanished in an instant.
This guy was a Space Series Transcendent…otherwise, he wouldn’t have escaped so quickly.
What a pity.
At the ti, Pei Jinye didn’t have the chance to Devour the Transcendent of the Red Lotus Mask because he was worried about being attacked by the other two en route.
Now, out of three people, he could only Devour one.
It was like there were three desserts, but he only had ti to eat one, making Pei Jinye feel sowhat regretful.
“I should be faster next ti.”
On the attribute panel—
Adding Extraordinary Ability: [Elent: Fla]
Adding Extraordinary Ability: [Fla]
It was an unexpected surprise.
Minutes later,
the second group from the Investigation Team finally arrived.
Seeing the limbs scattered about, everyone felt their scalp tingle.
“Pei Jinye!” Brother Bi arrived at Pei Jinye’s side, his expression changed drastically, and he quickly opened Pei Jinye’s face mask. A few streams of blood flowed down his head, his Vitality was weak, and he was already in a coma.
“Quick, to the hospital!”
Unsure of how long he had been asleep for,
Pei Jinye gradually awoke.
He opened his eyes.
Brother Bi just happened to co over with a bottle of water. He was startled, “Brother Bi?”
“Awake?” Brother Bi walked over quickly, smiling and saying, “You’re really lucky, lad. If it weren’t for the protection of your ch body, I reckon I’d be attending your body’s farewell right now.”
“Where am I?” After a sleep, Pei Jinye’s back of the hand was still connected to an IV, his body had long since recovered to its peak, and there was a bandaged white cloth on his forehead.
“In the hospital.” Brother Bi placed the water bottle on the cabinet, poured a glass of water for Pei Jinye, and handed it to him: “When we found you yesterday, you were all withered. There were two bodies at the scene, but both were severely damaged in the explosion, and their identities are still being confird.”
Pei Jinye took a sip of water, asking sowhat bewilderedly, “How long have I slept?”
“It’s now seven twenty in the morning.” Brother Bi said with a light laugh: “You just lie down, I’ll go call the doctor…”
The doctor and nurse quickly appeared and conducted a thorough examination for Pei Jinye.
After getting confirmation from the doctor, Brother Bi proceeded with Pei Jinye’s discharge procedure.
But before they could leave, they were stopped.
“Who are you?”
“Judgent Place Xu Tian.”
Xu Tian stood in the corridor of the hospital lobby with his people, his gaze passing over Brother Bi and directly falling on Pei Jinye, his mouth corners slowly curving with a hint of mockery.
“Pei Jinye, we et again.”
Pei Jinye’s gaze impassively swept past Xu Tian’s right arm.
Thinking that with a prosthetic arm, you can hop about again?
“You know each other?” Brother Bi looked on in astonishnt.
Pei Jinye shook his head: “Not really.”
Brother Bi was taken aback.
Xu Tian stepped forward, speaking lightly, “I am here on orders to investigate the Old Gods Association matter. I am already aware of what happened with you last night, but I need you, Pei Jinye, to elaborate on so specific details.”
Brother Bi frowned and said, “Your Judgent Place may be powerful, but surely not powerful enough to interrogate our Investigation Team, right? If you need to know sothing, go to our Investigation Team.”
Just as he was about to lead Pei Jinye away,
two n in overcoats with Xu Tian blocked their path.
Brother Bi raised an eyebrow at Xu Tian, “Or would you prefer we settle this with our fists right here?”
Xu Tian, with a faint smile on his lips, drew a warrant with his chanical arm and held it in front of Brother Bi, “Your group leader personally wrote this approval. Do you want to call and check?”
Brother Bi’s eyebrows knitted together.
Pei Jinye spoke calmly to reassure him: “It’s fine, they just want to ask about the situation. You wait for in the hall.”
Brother Bi looked at him and slowly nodded, then quietly warned Xu Tian, “I know what you Judgent Place people are capable of, but our Investigation Team and your departnt are separate entities. If you dare play dirty, I’ll make sure the news reaches headquarters tonight, and you won’t be able to wash your hands of it.”
Xu Tian looked at him expressionlessly, and said nothing.
He took Pei Jinye to a conference room.
After closing the door.
Only Pei Jinye and Xu Tian were left in the room.
“Isn’t it coincidental.” Xu Tian looked at him intently, “Last ti when Wei Xia was killed, you were a suspect. Now with the appearance of the Old Gods Association, only you were left alone with them.”
“Choose your words carefully, I was abducted,” Pei Jinye calmly interrupted.
Xu Tian looked up at him, “Then describe the process of your abduction.”
“That night at ten twenty-seven, our Investigation Team Group Two was passing through the lanes in Pingchuan District, preparing to return to base. We encountered mbers of the Old Gods Association… The vehicles ahead initiated the attack, and I was at the end of the convoy with Brother Bi. In the search for cover, the enemy approached us, I covered Brother Bi’s retreat, and thus I was attacked by them…”
“Why did you choose to retreat instead of attack?” Xu Tian suddenly interrupted: “Please explain in detail.”
“Why?” Pei Jinye slowly raised his head to look at him: “Then why didn’t you sacrifice yourself last night instead of questioning here? Could you explain that in detail?”
Xu Tian’s brow furrowed slightly: “Pei Jinye, there’s no need for such hostility towards . First, I have no ill will towards you personally, and second, this is work.”
“Oh, is that so? I don’t believe you.”
