boom--!
Two opposing forces stirred up an invisible tidal wave within the office.
The powerful shockwave surged like waves, sweeping directly into the entire room.
The murals on the wall were overturned and fell to the ground, the tables and chairs were snapped in two by mental force, and Lou Renyu's face was kneaded into various shapes like dough.
"Could you... let me maintain my image in front of Miss Tao Yao... I'm at least somewhat satisfied with my appearance..." he muttered intermittently, but no one paid him any attention.
Pink roses were constantly fluttering around Shu Yan, but he remained unyielding, his brows furrowed.
Even the mental strength that a creature at its last gasp can unleash during its struggle should not be underestimated!
The system felt it absolutely could not afford to lose this time!
It unleashed its last burst of spiritual power, attempting to strangle Shu Yan. Though unseen, one could feel the surging, overwhelming force of this power.
The system's voice echoed softly amidst the waves.
Even if you strangle me, it won't matter. We share this body; if I die, he dies too.
"Then let him die too." Shu Yan didn't care at all. As long as it wasn't someone he cared about, he didn't care who lived or died.
Lou Renyu?
He didn't know the other person.
We have never harbored any ill will towards you, nor have we offended you in any way so far. We can simply go our separate ways; why must you be so ruthless towards us?
"For the greater good of the world, or to fill the Alliance's database, could be a reason to kill you," Shu Yan laughed, a small orb of light appearing between his brows. "Didn't you want to see my true strength? Similarly, I want to see what your true form is?"
As he spoke, a ball of light shot out from between his eyebrows.
[Shu Yan, don't push your luck!]
The voice was filled with anger.
"So, you're still a human being, not an insect or anything else?" The sphere of light rapidly enlarged, like an ever-growing bubble. Wherever the bubble went, things in the room were instantly shattered. Soon, the entire sphere of light covered the entire office.
"Shu Yan, I... I... you want... to cooperate with you..." The voice came intermittently.
A moment later, the afterglow emitted by the light sphere disappeared.
The entire office was in a mess, with several direct clashes of mental energy leaving debris scattered all over the floor.
“Ayan,” Taoyao said softly, “it seems he has escaped. That Lou Renyu has spatial abilities and used spatial teleportation.”
"Hmm," Shu Yan reached out and gently grasped her hand, "Were you affected by the mental energy?"
Tao Yao shook her head, "You've put up several layers of mental barriers for me, but I'm fine."
Shu Yan carefully examined Tao Yao and found that she was indeed unharmed, so he relaxed and began to observe his surroundings.
He led Tao Yao through the ruins to investigate.
There were no living things in the ruins; wood chips, stones, metal fragments, and glass shards were scattered everywhere.
"Ayan, can't you sense where this person has teleported through space?" Taoyao knows Shuyan very well. If she could capture Lou Renyu, he would definitely not leave any backup plans. He is still investigating here now. She guesses that even if she and Shuyan get out, they probably won't be able to catch up with Lou Renyu.
Shu Yan nodded: "The mental power in that person's brain was damaged, and now that unknown thing is weak in consciousness. It is no longer within my perception range. Moreover, the fact that Lou Renyu can sit here and has spatial abilities means that he possesses more than one ability."
Space teleportation isn't something you can just do wherever you want.
Spatial teleportation also requires coordinates. Point-to-point teleportation means that Lou Renyu had already set the coordinate axis for spatial teleportation in other places before this battle, so that his mental power could not detect it.
Tao Yao had already realized from the beginning that this person likely possessed more than one superpower.
"Then his special ability..." Tao Yao thought of a superpower that had already disappeared and another that was registered but had no research subject, "Could it be plundering or copying?"
Plundering is an extinct superpower.
Two hundred years ago, there was a superhuman whose ability was plunder. He could obtain the superhuman's ability from other superhumans, provided that he killed the other person with his own plunder ability.
As for the ability to copy, no one in the alliance possesses it yet, and how to use this ability is still just a rough guess by experts.
Just then, a hidden compartment in the wall was suddenly opened with a "bang".
To be precise, it can't be said that it was opened, but rather that it was broken through from the inside.
This hidden chamber was already damaged during the battle of mental strength between Shu Yan and the opponent, so it was easily destroyed from the inside this time.
"My God!!" The burly man inside crawled out, pushing aside the scraps of wood in front of him, and raised his hands excitedly, "I, the eagle-like man, have finally come out!"
Then, I saw Shu Yan and Tao Yao standing in the ruins.
A perfect couple, a talented man and a beautiful woman.
"You!" the man exclaimed, opening his mouth.
Shu Yan looked at him: "Zhang Qi?"
"Hero!" The eagle-like man rushed over, hugging Shu Yan's leg and crying, "Wow, a peerless hero! Thank you for saving me, thank you so much! I thought I wouldn't see the sun rise tomorrow, waaaaaah!"
Shu Yan and Tao Yao exchanged a glance, looking somewhat disgusted.
"I couldn't get through to your personal terminal for a while." Sensing something was amiss, Shu Yan lifted his leg and said directly, "Now, you should go and contact your partner, Guazi."
"Oh, right, right, I need to tell him I've been ambushed!" The man opened his personal terminal and brought up his business partner. "He actually called me 20 times!"
He then quickly dialed Star Telephone.
The moment I called, the other party answered instantly.
"Fatty Zhang!" The other party roared like a lion's roar, "What kind of promotional campaign are you running! Why didn't you discuss it with me beforehand? Why didn't you notify me just now! Do you know how much money you're going to have to compensate us for those two level-six evolved beasts you borrowed tonight, that artificial calculator, and all that other nonsense!"
"What evolutionary beast? What artificial calculator? What nonsense is this?" Zhang Qi was completely bewildered, so much so that he didn't even notice that the other person called him Fatty.
There was no way he would answer with an answer about evolved beasts; the roar over there kept unleashing its fury, "Your hunting event tonight is going to lose over 60 million star coins! Sixty million! Do you even know that? Do you even know that? It's 60 million! Ten million! You banana, you guava; you grape, you cantaloupe!"
"How much?" Zhang Qi's legs trembled, and he felt as if his soul had left his body. "Say it again, how many thousand? How many tens of thousands did you lose?"
Before he could finish his last word, the eagle-like man collapsed with a thud, still in his lightning-fast pose, and passed out.
