Chapter 106 New Strategy

Come to think of it, your superpowers—from the first day we met—have been incredibly strange.

As the time stretched on, Xinaya pondered slowly: "I originally didn't care about such details. After all, whether you can distort the anomaly, brainwash the anomaly, or neutralize the anomaly, as long as you can't completely suppress it, I will devour you sooner or later."

The same is true for humans, right? All the meat we eat eventually turns to fat anyway, so who cares if the beef roll in our mouths comes from a one-year-old cow or a one-year-and-three-month-old cow?

【Get to know Chen Xiao’e】

Xinnaya sighed deeply in her laughter: My fellow tribesman, you are indeed an expert in studying human beings.

I finally understood Chen Xiao'er and successfully analyzed the biggest weakness of her superpowers - subjectivity and passivity.

The range of zeroing is extremely limited.

It can be seen as a halo related to the body's vision and perception ability. At the same time, this halo will gradually expand with the improvement of super powers and changes in emotions.

My original tactic was effective, as long as I attacked from outside the range.

The problem lies in "changing with emotions".

The devil is very sensitive to energy changes in the human body. Moreover, as soon as Xinnaya sees Chen Xiao'er, she will immediately activate her full perception. Of course, she can sense the changes in Chen Xiao'er's strength in recent days.

There was growth, but it was not noticeable, not enough to even out or even reverse the power gap between the devil and the individual apostle. At the same time, the apostle did not draw energy from the other energy pool.

After eliminating the two interfering factors, the correct answer is obvious.

All abnormalities will be suppressed within the range of zeroing, and those that Chen Xiao'er subjectively considers to be enemies will be suppressed even more severely.

My previous strategy was a complete failure, it was completely stupid!

The inability to kill with one strike only deepens the hatred, so in each subsequent battle, the opponent will be suppressed even more severely.

If this continues, as Chen Xiao'er becomes stronger day by day and her hatred for me increases little by little... I'm afraid she will crush me like an ant.

It was so chilling that Su Shuang couldn't stand it!

A strong desire to win surged and lingered in the devil's body, and a crazy and twisted smile quickly spread across his face.

【I will never give you such an opportunity.】

I will suppress my hatred for you and numb your heart with deception. The moment you think we are no longer enemies but allies, I will kill you in the most brutal way possible.

What a joy! Even just thinking about it makes my core boil.

Boom!

Ding ding!

Fists met blows, whirling with gusts of wind as Xinnaya fought and retreated. Her focus now was no longer on causing trouble for Chen Xiao'e; she simply wanted to quietly depart and prepare for her next move.

I need more professional advice. When I go back, I'll get some energy and give it to that fellow tribesman, so that she can help me come up with the next plan.

Bang!

The kick landed solidly on his knee, and the devil frowned in anger.

She looked past the apostle's body and saw a group of humans approaching quickly.

Some of the fluctuations seemed familiar, and they should be Chen Xiao'er's companions.

The others were just the trash among the trash. She was too lazy to even lick their little energy. They were probably the scum who came here to seek revenge after the "God" was killed.

Her fighting spirit was fading, so Sinaya simply turned around and leaped onto the pile of debris.

It doesn't matter if the creatures of the abyss die once or twice, but I can't die at the hands of lowly humans.

The emerald eyes glanced at Chen Xiao'er's face: Haha, if you were bitten to death by these insects because of your superpowers, it would be more disgusting than dying a hundred or a thousand times!

…

Why are they fighting again... Chen Xiao'er stood there in a daze.

How could this happen?

How shameless must Xinnaya be to be so persistent and repeatedly disrupt the school's group activities.

If only she died

Chen Xiao'er slapped her forehead: No, how can I think like that?

Zero's promise also echoed in his mind at the same time: "I will kill her for you."

This time Chen Xiao'er didn't hit her head, but her thoughts became clearer.

Senior, I don’t need such a promise. I just hope you can live a good life and not get involved in such a nasty situation again.

Huh~

Chen Xiao'er sighed softly, and the moment she looked up, her eyes met Xinnaya's, and her shoulders trembled.

So disgusting!

That look was just like a hungry wolf drooling, as greedy as licking.

I don’t want to care about her anymore. The senior has the upper hand now, and the trouble is invincible anyway!

A strong feeling of disgust welled up in her heart. Chen Xiao'e touched her arm and simply walked a few steps to the side. She was about to walk further away so as not to disturb her senior student's performance, but suddenly stopped.

The thing Xinnaya was holding in her hand... looked a little familiar.

It also looks like a piece of amber. It has a similar texture to the souvenir, but it's green in color.

Why was she holding a piece of amber in her hand during the fight? Was she trying to hit her senior on the head?

"Zero—watch out for what she's holding!"

After Chen Xiao'er finished shouting, she put down her hands and began to think about the origin of amber.

It looks exactly like the souvenir at the service station. Xinaya, you are stealing things from the school again!

You are obviously a rich second generation, but you always try to steal something when you cause trouble. You must have a kleptomania.

No, no matter if it is to help the school recover the property or to help this guy correct his personality, at this time we should... Chen Xiao'er clenched her fists and her eyes became sharp.

…

Oh, stupid humans.

The battle between Xinaya and Zero is finally coming to an end. They have fought all the way to the edge of the stronghold. The devil only needs to run a few more steps into the abyss to successfully escape.

Something is wrong. Why haven’t I escaped from the range of zero yet?

The devil's expression froze for a second because she didn't see Chen Xiao'er.

Where is that cunning guy hiding?

Swish~What's that sound?

Xinnaya maximized her senses and suddenly felt a strange touch on her palm. She quickly lowered her head and saw the back of Chen Xiao'er's furry head.

When will this guy come! What is she going to do? Could it be that——

Her deep pupils contracted violently. Under the influence of multiple factors, mainly shock, Xinnaya watched helplessly as the energy core was pulled out from her palm and slid into Chen Xiao'er's hand.

"Haha~ Give it to me—give it to me!"

After the cunning woman succeeded, she showed her very familiar expression in front of her, which made her heart beat faster and even her blood rush to her head.

Chen Xiao'er smiled brightly, occupying every corner of Xinnaya's iris.

"How dare you steal things from school? I'll kill you!" She stuck out her tongue, kicked off her feet, and ran several steps.

Seeing Xinaya's expression of "How dare you do this?", Chen Xiao'e couldn't help but chuckle: "Hahaha~ Alright, alright, if you keep messing around like this, I really won't let you go."

She was laughing when she said the first half of the sentence, but when she said the second half, her tone became serious and very earnest.

She really hoped that this selfish and neurotic rich lady would stop causing trouble, use her excess energy to do something meaningful, and that they could part ways amicably.

“——”

Xinaya's expression instantly turned terrifyingly ferocious, but Chen Xiao'e's words, "I really can't forgive you," and Milo's "Do you really understand Chen Xiao'e?" intertwined, weaving a spiral mesh that entangled her tightly.

Phew—they are right.

Didn’t I just think it through? If I continue like this, I will get nothing.

The devil's fists were clenched so hard that they made a creaking sound, almost grinding his bones into pieces that bounced onto the ground.

Xinnaya wanted to, more than ever, rush over and punch Chen Xiao'er one, two, thirty thousand times, until this human could no longer maintain his human form, and his flesh turned into dust under the flames and was completely devoured by her.

No, I can't do it yet. In order to do it, I must try my best.

This [full force] naturally includes control. I must control my core and body to fight hatred, paralyze the enemy, and defeat Chen Xiao'er!

Huh…hiss…

Sinaya took a deep breath. Though the muscles on her face were still twitching, she was forced to remain indifferent. Her face was already delicate and noble, and the calm beneath this fury seemed even more sincere and burning.

The devil stopped grinding his teeth and licked the blood from the corner of his mouth. He said in a steady voice, "You want it? Take it if you want."

“?!” Is this true? Why did this person change his personality?

Chen Xiao'er never thought that what she just said would have such a good effect. She felt a little guilty for some reason, and her calves were cramping.

She took small steps to get behind the senior schoolmate who had come running, and quietly poked half of her head out. She couldn't help but ask, "Are you okay?" Maybe she hit her head when she fell.

"……call."

Xinaya took another deep breath. Stay calm. Chen Xiao'er is the most cunning creature I've ever met, and she's also a showman. It's certainly not easy to satisfy her.

The devil controlled every muscle on her face, pulling up the corners of her mouth to reveal a smile uglier than crying. She gritted her teeth and said, "It's okay, we are, we are... we are friends."

I’m going to vomit, I’m going to vomit, I’m going to vomit—a strong feeling of nausea suddenly hit Xinaya and Chen Xiao’er, and their faces turned blue at the same time.

Uh, uh...

Chen Xiao'er looked at Ling for help, but the senior student remained calm, seemingly wary of Xinnaya's sudden attack. Farther away, the students also arrived.

Many familiar faces were strolling around in the souvenir shops, with happy smiles on their faces.

However, there were some discordant notes. Perhaps the staff wanted to force sales again and stopped several students from leaving.

Just try to stop them, they even pulled out sticks and made threatening gestures.

Fortunately, the students of Taoli University are strong and sturdy, so they are not afraid of such things at all. They push the troublemakers far away with just one push.

Seeing more and more classmates gathering, Chen Xiao'er was no longer willing to delay because of Xinnaya's troubles.

Phew~ Never mind, I've already got the scoring items. As long as Xinaya is willing to give in, I'll just pretend.

She laughed dumbly, raised her hand and shook it helplessly: "Okay, goodbye then?" Please don't say goodbye, Miss!

"…goodbye."

Sinaya controlled the muscles of her body bit by bit, twisted her body and disappeared into the mist.

[0: Pursuit mode canceled.] Guardian mode activated.

After briefly replying to the front desk, Ling retracted his gaze and fixed it on Xiao'er's profile: "What should we do next?"

Chen Xiao'er raised her head and smiled wryly at Ling Yun's nonchalant expression. "Should we go and stop the fight first? Oh, the staff here are really annoying! The school has already paid the venue fee, and they're still giving us a hard time."

"Okay." Ling quietly recorded the girl's expression at the moment, stretched out his arm to the most suitable distance for holding, and then walked towards the square together, shoulder to shoulder.

…

Several hours passed quickly.

The bonfire went out and the stronghold fell into silence.

Most of the underground people had no intention of sharing life and death with their leader and "god", so they fled when the chaos broke out. Whether they found a new leader to continue their lives, or simply abandoned everything and slipped away to the surface, both were much more tempting than fighting to the death.

Yan stood on the high hillside and took a last look at their former home.

There's no need to go back. I'll go to the surface with my sister and start a new life.

"Brother, why don't we go with our sisters?" Yu tugged at the corner of her brother's robe and asked in a low voice.

Yan held his sister's hand, his voice was exceptionally gentle, softer than any other day in the past: "Because that sister's family only wants the strongest people, we can't get in."

For the first time, he spoke to his sister in a coaxing tone: "Let's go to the Human Soul Alliance? I heard that the people there are willing to accept any young child."

This was the result of his careful consideration. The Church of Light, an elite organization that was rumored to be extremely powerful, must be extremely strict in screening its personnel.

Otherwise, the tribe members would have been recruited long ago since they were so close to the church. Even the elite of the tribe would be nothing to the church.

On the contrary, the warriors of the human soul front often trade with the underground people, and occasionally come to the market here to sell equipment and hand over tasks.

The Church of Light is too unfamiliar, and Yan cannot afford to take the risk, so he can only choose the human soul front.

The good thing about that organization is that it is very willing to accept new blood. My sister will definitely survive there, and maybe she can even get some good alienated tissue implanted for free.

"Okay, then let's go to the human spirit and soul front!"

Yu didn't know which one was better, but since her brother said it, she just repeated it with a laugh.

"Um!"

The brother and sister held hands and rushed down the mountain like two innocent children. There was an ascending passage not far away. It would only take a few days to climb up from there and reach the surface.

The two of them were laughing, and suddenly they shut their mouths.

Because they saw a familiar figure: Why is Sister Xiaocao from the tribe standing here? Just the name Xiaocao makes sense, because Sister Xiaocao is a physical ability user with specialized agility, and she is also very sensitive. She can escape the fastest when something happens in the tribe.

But who is that woman next to him?

"Brother, that blonde sister..."

"Shh!" Yan covered his sister's mouth tightly, cold sweat pouring down his body: "Don't talk, it's not human!"
