There's absolutely no need for superpowers.
The katana sliced through the scales, creating sparks, before severing the bone. Cheng Sui stared in disbelief at Shi Yin, who seemed to have genuinely not used any special abilities, instead using the zombie's severed arm to step forward.
"The New World is a scam!"
On the severed arm, tiny humans walk as if on flat ground.
The silver blade flashed like lightning, and the operator could only instinctively pull back his hand to cover his throat. It had a fighting spirit and a hunting instinct, and it also understood its own weakness.
However, the blade was not intended for the throat. Shi Yin anticipated its prediction, and a silver lightning bolt flashed across its eyes, drawing a line of blood from the manipulator's two-meter-diameter head to its temple.
Unfortunately, the head was too large, and the katana only cut off half of it. Otherwise, the head would have been severed completely.
"The new world is a hoax, and God is a hoax!"
“New…world…” the manipulator finally mumbled, uttering indistinct human words. It was enraged and instinctively felt fear. It swung its remaining left arm, which was like a whip, trying to swat Shi Yin away, and turned to run away.
However, its legs gave way and it fell straight forward, its ankles being cleanly severed.
"……sound……"
The manipulator seemed to recognize Shion, and it uttered a syllable from its throat. No, it should be said that it had a peculiar fanaticism for Shion, which was not a kind of human brilliance.
It tried to get up from the ground. Its zombified body could not feel pain even a tenth of what a human could feel, but it had lost its ability to sense time and sound.
Without using superpowers, there is no energy or superpower fluctuation, which also poses a great obstacle to zombies locking onto targets.
"boom--!"
The operator, who had used his hands to prop himself up, was slammed heavily to the ground.
Three beams of light, almost simultaneously striking the arms and spine, pinning it to the ground.
Its arms flew high into the air and were severed along with its shoulders. It only had time to turn its head before a cleaver as wide as a thigh was plunged into its mouth, so hard that even its sharp teeth could not bite it.
"What do you want? Answer me!"
Cheng Sui knelt down with a thud. She clutched her chest, feeling an indescribable sorrow welling up inside her, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.
"Beep beep beep—"
Cheng Sui felt the badge she was wearing on her chest vibrate.
These are the badges they were given immediately after being quarantined, representing each of their identities. They were said to be useful later, but now they are vibrating slightly.
They all carried basic identity tags, but Shi Yin's badge on her chest was a more elaborate national emblem, with a small mark on the right that jumped and stopped exactly on the "3".
Inside the Doomsday Beacon, everyone stared in astonishment at the sudden surge in their ability usage.
"Does Shi Yin know this person?" Ji Yunhan frowned. He was old and leaning on his cane, but his eyes were still bright and piercing.
"It seems so." An expert from the investigation team flipped through the files and said, "It should be an emotional ability. We can show it to Ji Chuan to confirm."
Ji Chuan is currently the only emotional ability user. He is working hard and is said to be half of Aga Ray's apprentice. You can never ask him a question.
There's no need to ask about Shi Yin; she's too strong, so using her as a countermeasure is of little reference value.
Ji Yunhan simply snorted coldly.
He had always been dissatisfied with this illegitimate son, considering him a stain on the Ji family. However, since Ji Chuan was being given important responsibilities, he couldn't say anything. He just felt awkward and uncomfortable thinking about Ji Chuan's identity.
“If it’s an emotional ability, this isn’t a positive emotion.” An observer saw Cheng Sui’s reaction through the monitoring on Shi Yin: “It must be quite painful. This person might hold a place in Shi Yin’s heart…”
“We should probably call Shi Yin and calm her down.” Another observer nodded in agreement: “Negative emotions can cloud judgment, and now is not the time to act impulsively.”
Several people nearby nodded in agreement.
"Wow, what could possibly cause such a big emotional fluctuation in Sister Yin?" Ye Shaoheng exclaimed in amazement. "I thought Sister Yin was a cold and aloof boss."
The commander-in-chief didn't respond; his brow furrowed slightly.
Shion's performance was undoubtedly outstanding; from slicing the manipulator's fingernails to the end of the battle, it took less than a minute.
However, he did not agree with the conclusions drawn by the observers around him.
Ye Shaoheng should be 100% on Shi Yin's side, but with his intelligence, he might not be able to say anything reasonable. The big boss frowned, hesitating whether to speak up himself.
He glanced at Nan Zhu beside him, raising an eyebrow slightly.
Compared to the seriousness of others, Nan Zhu was rather nonchalant, with her long, waterfall-like hair cascading lazily over her shoulders, making her look as if she had stepped back into a classical era.
But he seemed serious, his knuckles gently supporting his cheek, his index finger lightly touching his temple, and the commander noticed a beauty mark at the corner of his eye.
"Nanzhu, what do you think?" The commander looked at the big screen. At this moment, the machete was stuck in the operator's mouth, preventing it from biting down, and they could see the sharp teeth.
“Me?” Nan Zhu looked up, seemingly flattered. “I don’t think interrupting Miss is a good idea.”
“She’s strong enough that she obviously doesn’t need superpowers to deal with zombies, but now she’s showing emotional fluctuations, which is abnormal.” The observer who spoke first immediately retorted, “Judging from the other person’s reaction, it’s clearly a negative emotion.”
“I know, but that’s where the problem lies.” Nan Zhu explained slowly, “In my personal understanding, emotional fluctuations and emotional superpowers are two different things.”
"The difference is that fluctuations are personal emotions, while superpowers are purposeful."
Yes, it can speak human language.
The leader's brow finally relaxed a bit. They didn't understand superpowers, and if they were to speculate, the leader would probably agree more with Nan Zhu.
"Oh dear, why are you all so concerned?" Ye Shaoheng scratched his head. "Sister Yin is doing her own thing, you guys just observe... Ouch!"
"Speak properly." Ye Yuansong glared at Ye Shaoheng.
This kid has gotten too cocky ever since he started following Shi Yin.
"I was wrong..." Ye Shaoheng slid to his knees so fast that his voice was low and aggrieved: "Sister Yin must have her reasons for doing things, just watch."
“However, everyone makes mistakes, and we need to provide timely reminders.” Another observer hesitated.
"Sister Yin doesn't need a reminder, right?" Ye Shaoheng didn't quite understand what these people were worried about: "No, what good would it do if you reminded her? Even if Sister Yin makes a mistake, she has the ability to cover for it."
Ye Shaoheng: "Do you guys have some misunderstanding about what the strongest is?"
Shi Yin said she was the strongest, so of course she was strong. She defeated this monkey in less than a minute. So what if she made a mistake?
Ye Shaoheng said that if he had the ability to sing, he wouldn't be so cautious. He would run to the enemy camp and dance the hula.
Everyone: "..."
It seems impossible to refute.
Commander-in-Chief: "..."
He understood perfectly well that Ye Shaoheng hadn't understood what they were saying at all; he was relying solely on his complete confidence in Shi Yin.
Luckily, I didn't ask Ye Shaoheng for his opinion. That guy is on the right track, but what he says always sounds like he's being unreasonable.
Fortunately, Ye Shaoheng and Nan Zhu, who were close to Shi Yin, told him not to disturb her, so he didn't have to say anything more.
The commander-in-chief understood that it was best for him to maintain a neutral stance on the surface. Shi Yin was too powerful at the moment, and he needed to balance things out, otherwise it would be detrimental to future progress.
Since someone is speaking up for him, he only needs to appear thoughtful and then agree.
Although the Commander-in-Chief was somewhat reluctant to admit it, his thinking this time was actually a bit similar to Ye Shaoheng's...
I always felt strange about keeping in step with Ye Shaoheng; it felt like my thinking had suddenly regressed.
