Chapter 268 Not even a lifeline



However, they had no lifeline.

They even kicked the sparkling crystal chandelier once or twice.

It seemed like a casual kick, but the crystal chandelier suddenly shattered completely.

It smashed on the ground and shattered everywhere.

As for that person, it seemed to linger in the air for a moment before crashing face down to the ground.

It not only smashed into various glass and crystal shards, but also cracked the polished floor tiles into tree branch shapes.

The wailing was vaguely centered on his human form... It stopped abruptly after only half a sound.

This scene is strangely comical.

Liu Yun: ...Is this a clown that the monkey hired?

As the second person to awaken superpowers, there's no need to celebrate in this way!

Shao Hong: ...Should she worry about Zhang Linyuan's face, or be delighted that this house-destroying entrance could actually make the villa rebuild?

This is great; it can completely transform the villa into a place that integrates offense and defense.

When she first came here, she felt that this place was a bit fragile, and she had to be careful when walking around, for fear of being trampled.

Shao Hong silently took out her phone and sent the result to Minister Shao.

Minister Shao was also momentarily stunned, "What happened?"

Shao Hong sighed, "I really don't know. Anyway, Xiao Yuan has successfully awakened. The senior said it's a space-type."

Minister Shao gasped, momentarily speechless.

There's a feeling that this world is truly absurd. Where exactly did things go wrong?

Just as Shao Hong was reporting, Chef Li suddenly turned into a human torch in the kitchen with a "bang." His busy figure just moments before froze instantly, as if the pause button had been pressed.

The fire-fighting equipment was penalized, and a lot of water sprayed out from the ceiling, hissing as it sprayed water out.

As a result, the flames on Chef Li's body not only did not decrease but increased, as if oil had been poured on the fire instead of water.

Fortunately, the flames didn't rise uncontrollably; they stopped just before reaching the ceiling.

The carved ceiling was quickly blackened in large areas, and there was a faint indication that it was about to catch fire.

Left with no other choice, Liu Yun threw something out, which formed a spherical energy body that enveloped Chef Li.

It was as if Chef Li had been intentionally controlling things, and something was protecting the outside, which put my mind at ease.

The flames suddenly surged and rolled, instantly filling the entire spherical energy body, forming a sphere radiating flames from within, and Chef Li's figure could no longer be seen.

Shao Hong clicked her tongue: "Again?"

Minister Shao's heart skipped a beat: "What? Again? What happened this time?"

Seeing that Liu Yun had taken action, Shao Hong didn't bother to report anymore; the villa was now on the verge of becoming a dangerous building.

"Let's talk about it later, things have changed..."

He hung up the phone after saying that.

Only Minister Shao remained in that position, looking sullen.

At least give us a hint; keeping us in suspense like this is a bad habit.

However, she was his daughter whom he had lost and then found again. What could he do? Spoil her, of course.

After checking the time and what he was doing, he immediately ordered people to prepare a private plane... well, perhaps it would be more appropriate to call it an aircraft.

It was a small house, about ten square meters in size and two meters high. After it was activated, it "whooshed" into the sky, automatically activated its stealth function, and quietly flew towards Furong City.

The flight altitude was much lower than that of the airplane, and it was heading straight for its destination.

He had only had this thing for three days, and it was still a test version; this was only the second time he had flown it.

Liu Yun: "My goodness, is awakening superpowers really this dangerous?"

"Is it that destructive?"

"No wonder we had to prepare everything before awakening... It was our oversight. When you awakened your powers, the device itself was very durable."

Her villa... there's nothing special about it, so it's normal that it couldn't withstand the pressure.

So it turns out that newly awakened superpowers are so hard to control!

"So other countries are discovering people with superpowers one after another because of this?"

If things get out of control, they will cause chaos and abnormal events. If you get there in time, you can indeed recruit new people.

Shao Hong was taken aback, seemingly not quite understanding why the topic had suddenly jumped to this point.

"Yes, that's true, but it also means there are those who slip through the net, and if some clandestine organizations strike first... that's how some special assassins on the dark web came about."

"Moreover, there are also Yan people who study internal energy on the dark web."

"There are traitors, those forced into it, those who grew up abroad, and those who inherited their positions within the organization..."

Liu Yun nodded and picked up the tea set: "Let's go to the yard to talk first!" She had a feeling that this villa was doomed.

Liu Yun expressed her understanding of what Shao Hong meant by the dark web.

Everywhere there is light, there is darkness.

The bounties offered by the Ministry of State Security of Yan on the dark web are quite high.

However, because very few people come to Yan Kingdom to do this kind of mission, the bounty will only increase year by year.

Perhaps it's not that few people come.

Those who came for the high prices all lost money here.

Even Liu Yun, who earned too much from movies and refused to give capital a break, was criticized.

Liu Yun had A Qi investigate behind her back, and it turned out that some of the Nth generation were indeed dissatisfied and wanted to make Liu Yun suffer and get killed.

The request wasn't to kill her, but to make Liu Yun aware of "the dangers of the world," and then share the money-making projects she could.

In the end... nothing came of it. Not long after, those N-generation members either immigrated or went bankrupt. They couldn't pay the commissions, lost part of the deposits, and refunded some people's money. The mission naturally disappeared.

To be honest, Liu Yun was a little disappointed. She really wanted to see how real assassins in this world operated.

Literary creation and filmmaking rely more on imagination.

While she wanted to see things for herself, Liu Yun wasn't so idle as to issue a mission to lure assassins. Just when someone was about to "teach her a lesson," the government seized the opportunity to eliminate her.

Having a powerful backer is really helpful; she wouldn't necessarily turn away such a good deed.

The two sat down on the deck chairs in the courtyard, with the tea set beside them.

They leisurely sipped their tea, then "admired" the enormous commotion emanating from the villa.

It broke off pieces here and there, and it would shake and tremble from time to time.

It feels like there's fire below and water gushing out above...

Alright, Liu Yun and Shao Hong are already wondering when this villa just collapsed like that?

Is it safe for them to sit here?

Maybe we should stay away from each other!

Fortunately, it was broad daylight, and there weren't that many residents in the villa area to begin with. Most people weren't home during the day, and there was also some distance between the villas, so it didn't attract any onlookers.

Of course, it was also crucial that Aqi immediately modified some monitoring data.

At least the property management didn't notice anything unusual, and they won't come over unless necessary.

When Minister Shao arrived, he found that his daughter and a senior colleague were already sitting in the corner of the wall, and the villa... strangely enough, from the perspective of the wall, it looked okay, not particularly dilapidated.

But below... it's already teetering on the brink of collapse, it feels like it'll crumble if the wind picks up even a little.
