Chapter 135 S-Class Hero Ranger
Zhong Mengfan used his special ability to laboriously open a defensive force field, wrapping both him and me within the defensive range.
The attacks of the alien creatures that broke the seal continued, and each attack hit the protective shield heavily, making a loud "bang bang" sound.
"Xia Ye, let's hold on a little longer... The communicator has sent out a distress signal requesting support, and other superheroes will be here." Zhong Mengfan comforted me, but he himself seemed to be reaching his limit.
Continuously using his supernatural powers at high frequencies caused blood to flow from one of his ear canals, a sign of physical overload. Zhong Mengfan came to comfort me because my current condition seemed much worse than his.
Unfortunately, his hopes were doomed to fail, as no superheroes would come to support us from headquarters.
Even before I planned to release this alien creature, Minister Lin had already hacked into the Super Hero Headquarters' mainframe system and preemptively altered the S-class heroes' missions. He also anticipated the potential appearance of nearby A-class heroes who might willingly join the battle without regard for their own lives, and dispatched them one by one.
I, who had planned all of this, looked up at Zhong Mengfan who was in trouble because of me, and quickly lowered my eyes.
Even though I anticipated the current situation that would put Zhong Mengfan in extreme trouble, there was still a moment of brief hesitation in my heart.
However, no matter what, the result cannot be changed.
——The heroic Night Demon will die here.
"That's enough, Zhong Mengfan." I patted Zhong Mengfan gently, "Leave the rest to me."
He shook his head. "But you're already injured."
"Every Pro Hero has their own trump card, their own secret moves. You should know what I'm called, the Pro Hero closest to S-rank. My ability, Nightmare, is a legendary demonic creature. Since it's a creature, it naturally has its own form. I can transform into Nightmare, and after that, my combat power will increase. Then..."
Before I could finish my words, Zhong Mengfan interrupted me. "Those who awaken to supernatural powers are those of legendary creatures. Even if they reach S-rank, they won't easily use their ability to transform. Transforming into an inhuman form will cause damage to the human body structure."
He grabbed my hand, as if afraid I would suddenly leave his side. "A-level psychics whose strength has not reached S-level forcibly using transformation to increase combat effectiveness are overdrawing their vitality to convert into supernatural powers. They will die!"
I looked at him in surprise. "It's rare that you can remember all this pure theoretical knowledge about superpowers so clearly."
"Because your ability is nightmare, I just want to get to know you better." Zhong Mengfan's face was very ugly. He seemed to have guessed what would happen next and begged me, "Don't go. Don't use the transformation, Xia Ye."
"Someone has to go. I'm the only one here who is qualified and capable of doing this." I said what I had anticipated.
The plan was being carried out perfectly step by step as I had envisioned, but I was not happy.
"I should be the one coming. I am the ranger! Protecting you is what I should do!" He became excited.
I wiped his tears with my fingertips. "You haven't reached S-rank yet, so you can't protect me for now. Let me protect you this time."
I lowered my head and kissed Zhong Mengfan on the lips, then pulled my hand out of his. "Don't cry, you're a Ranger now. Take care of yourself. I've always been looking forward to seeing you grow into an S-class hero."
I didn't really want to die. Even during the most critical period, when all those with special abilities were being purged worldwide, I never had the spirit of sacrificing my life for justice. Without regrets or obsessions that I couldn't let go of, I naturally couldn't utter any touching last words.
I just got a glimpse of the ending that would happen between Zhong Mengfan and me, a combination of a super villain and a righteous hero, and their love for each other, and made arrangements in advance that would be good for both of us.
Of course, this arrangement is a unilateral act of mine and is obviously more beneficial to me.
Zhong Mengfan was the one who was left behind by me without knowing anything.
While I was thinking and talking to Zhong Mengfan, I had begun to slowly transform into a non-human demonic creature, Nightmare.
"No!" He tried to hug me, but due to the characteristics of the nightmare state, his body turned into an untouchable phantom.
He can no longer touch me.
I turned my head and stared at Zhong Mengfan again. According to the script, the Night Demon would defeat the suddenly appearing S-level alien creature, but would also die here.
When I was about to come into close contact with a creature from another world, I would use the characteristics of nightmare to merge into its body and release my supernatural powers.
There was a loud noise in the sky, and it was broken open.
The huge fluctuation of supernatural power that poured down in an instant made everything around it stop.
It felt familiar. Here, at this moment, a third powerful psychic appeared. Like me once, he used his powers to freeze time and space.
"Summer night."
Someone called my name. It was a male voice that I had heard before, but it didn't sound very familiar.
My body, which had turned into a void nightmare due to the release of my supernatural powers, was enveloped by a supernatural power with elemental force, and I was "forced" to turn back into a human.
Then I was picked up and the person holding me said to me, "Finally, I see you again."
There were so many emotions in his voice, and before I could react, he let me go, and everything disappeared in a still and stagnant feeling.
Time and space began to flow again.
"Wait for me." The man left me and walked towards the direction where the alien creature was.
Then, he simply used the simple action of swinging his fist to easily and completely shatter the body of the alien creature that was just unleashing astonishing destructive power.
Compared to the current scene of blood scattering in the air like rain, flesh and limbs flying everywhere, and the bloody feeling, the man took off his mask and turned to smile at me, which obviously had a greater impact on me.
The man who suddenly appeared in front of me exuded the pressure of an S-level psychic, which made me instinctively tense my body and keep myself ready to fight at any time.
Even though he had a face exactly like Zhong Mengfan's, but more mature.
Even though I guessed that he might be the future Zhong Mengfan, I didn't completely relax my body.
The look of ease and experience in dealing with abnormal creatures, the violence and murderous intent that could not be ignored when attacking, were completely different from Zhong Mengfan who had always stayed by my side.
