Chapter 73 Kill Me
Not being able to become a professional hero has become a twisted obsession in Chen Ziyou's heart.
Now, knowing that I was one of the "culprits" who prevented him from becoming a hero, I succeeded in making Chen Ziyou lose control of his emotions and show murderous intent towards me, mobilizing the surrounding poisonous gas to attack me.
"Using your powers to kill ordinary people is so boring. You're more interesting, Night Demon. Killing an A-rank hero is like killing a god. This way, I'll become famous on the dark web."
Zhong Mengfan also swung his fist again, dispersing the poisonous gas that was about to come towards me.
My sword was against Chen Ziyou's shoulder, but at this moment, another stream of poisonous gas that was supposed to be gathering towards me changed direction and gathered around Zhong Mengfan.
I had to stop attacking and teleport to Zhong Mengfan's side, pulling him to narrowly avoid the poisonous gas that was about to surround him.
But Zhong Mengfan's skin still came into contact with some of the poison gas. He endured the pain and said, "Xia Ye, my left hand...can't move."
"Oh~ didn't I tell you that my ability has been improved recently. I can release a toxin that has a chance of paralyzing the skin if it comes into contact with it." Chen Ziyou said proudly.
To be honest, I'm a little angry.
"You were once a student at the academy. You should have learned in class that when capturing people with special abilities, you should try to preserve their lives to the greatest extent possible."
"But doctor, can you really catch me?" he said, seemingly having the upper hand.
"It would be time-consuming and laborious to capture you with all your limbs intact and without fatal injuries, but killing you is easy for me."
The atmosphere became more tense because of what I said.
"The doctor might not know this. If I die, the poison here will spread out of control. You two are psychics, so of course you can leave unscathed. But what about these police officers in the station who can't escape? They're all innocent people, haha."
He laughed and looked at me with malicious eyes and asked, "Doctor, you will not sacrifice the lives of innocent people, after all, you are the superhero Night Stalker."
I raised my sword and pointed it at him, making my stance clear.
He pretended to be disappointed and said, "What a pity. It seems that the A-level hero Night Devil is just like this. He is afraid of death and unwilling to sacrifice himself to save innocent people. I'm afraid that everyone will be buried with me because of your choice, doctor." Chen Ziyou opened his hands and released more poisonous gas.
"It seems that even if you transfer to the School of Superpowers, you are not the kind of student who can listen to the teacher's lectures carefully. Who told you that you have to sacrifice your own life to save others?
Killing innocent people is a means to achieve your goal. Will you really retract your supernatural powers and let these innocent people go just because I lay down my weapons?"
He didn't answer, but said, "Then let me see what you, as professional heroes, will do and what you can do."
"I won't let you succeed!" Zhong Mengfan opened his right hand. This time he did not use his ability to disperse the surrounding poisonous gas, but tried to control the airflow to gather all the poisonous gas together to prevent it from spreading.
I also took this opportunity to avoid the poisonous gas and teleported in front of Chen Ziyou.
He was once a student at the Pro Hero Academy, so he'd certainly learned combat techniques. But before he could gather his strength for a strike, I could already tell from his gaze where he was going to strike me. No need to dodge, I lifted my foot and struck the paralyzing spot on his shin. Chen Ziyou's right leg buckled, and I kneed his abdomen, pinning him to the ground.
“Hmm…”
As he fell to the ground, I had my sword against his throat.
Although Zhong Mengfan gathered most of the poison gas, his face turned pale and he looked very exhausted.
I slapped Chen Ziyou's face with the back of my sword and said, "Take back the poison you released."
"Night Demon, why don't you just kill me as you said?"
He looked at me defiantly. "I'll kill everyone here. Then, I'll die, or be locked up forever, whatever happens. My girlfriend will only think that I, a 'hero', tragically died while on a mission. She's not my relative, nor my legal partner, and she has no chance of learning the truth. It's all because some self-proclaimed romantic superheroes love changing partners so much that the status of boyfriend or girlfriend doesn't hold a superhero back, and they have no right to inquire about a superhero's life or death."
Chen Ziyou smiled happily when he said this, "I will always live in her mind—as a superhero."
"Ahhh!!!" But his smile quickly froze and he let out a scream.
