Jiaohuang has a special status in the comic world. Although it is located in a remote place, it always attracts the attention of people with special powers.
The lord of Jiaohuang is said to be a high-level warrior, very powerful, so Jiaohuang is not controlled by the empire. However, the lord of Jiaohuang is always elusive and never manages the city, so Jiaohuang is in chaos.
But even so, Jiaohuang is actually a good place for low-level psychics.
However, there are all kinds of forces in Jiaohuang. There are organizations that are united by faith alone, small organizations that help each other to make fire, and
Bronze makes a living by selling psychics.
The Tang is here.

"Invasion warning! Invasion warning!"
The sound of the alarm and the red warning lights filled the night with panic.
"Guard the gate! Don't let the invaders escape!" The tall man in the black robe waved his hand, and the corner of his clothes with golden fish-shaped patterns rose with the movement.
In front of him, a team of guards wearing the same black robes but without the gold patterns, occupied several entrances in a somewhat chaotic manner.
The sound of chaotic footsteps echoed in the darkness, and they ran inside the wall with red and yellow lights in their hands.
After the light shifted, a dark shadow quickly passed through the corner that was in the guard's blind spot.
The four-story square building covers an area of about 10,000 square meters and is only three stories high. In the dark night, the bronze color of the building's exterior seems to blend into the darkness. The first floor of the building has four edges like the legs of a table or stool, and the middle is white. The whole building looks like a huge square tripod.
This is where Tang is imprisoned, and it is the headquarters of the supernatural organization Bronze. The leader of the Bronze Organization is not here at this time, and the protagonist who caused the commotion has not yet escaped.
The boss sold the protagonist very decisively. He clearly knew the protagonist's plan, but he still gave the address.
Li Li walked along the outer edge of the "square tripod", moving in the shadows, without covering her face at all.
Her steps were swift and her eyes were cold.

[The prop [Red Dot Map] was purchased successfully, countdown 10:00]
A simple flat map appeared before her eyes, with her blue dot in the center of the map.
Around the blue dot, red dots are spread all over the map like a swarm of carp crossing the river.
"'Cicada Group Report'! Intruders spotted in the west area of the second floor!"
The guard's voice came into her ears from a few hundred meters away, and footsteps flooded into the wide door. Li Li stopped and leaned against the wall, waiting for the footsteps to fade away before quickly hiding inside.
There was no light inside the building, and the red dots with hand-held lights ran towards the stairs. Li Li held her breath and hid herself completely.
The item [Breath Hide] is a bit cheaper because it is not a supernatural item. It only hides the user's breath during the usage period. However, this is not invisibility, and if you are witnessed, you will still be discovered.
However, as long as she is not seen, she can invade the headquarters of the supernatural organization with ease.
She waited for a while and walked in the opposite direction of the crowd.
The intruder who was discovered was not her, but the protagonist who broke into here in the first half of the night.
In the first half of the comic update, the protagonist entered the supernatural organization "Bronze" and destroyed the power supply of the Bronze headquarters. When the Bronze Organization was in chaos, he found "Tang".
It is true that both the boss and the Bronze Organization treat "Tang" as an object, but "Tang" is actually just a little girl of seven or eight years old.
The protagonist wants to rescue her, but just as he tries to take Tang away, he somehow triggers the alarm installed by the Bronze Organization for Tang.
The backup power supply was activated instantly, and the Bronze Organization began searching for the invaders. The protagonist and Tang were trapped in the Bronze Organization's "Square Tripod".
The D-rank protagonist, Tang of unknown rank, and the Bronze Organization with B-rank leaders and C-rank thugs.
No matter how you think about it, it seems like an overwhelming disadvantage.
However, the helpers who appear at this time are more likely to gain the favor of the protagonist's readers.
Li Li knew that her popularity was not enough to make her rest easy, she had to ensure that she could still appear in the next update, otherwise she would be forgotten soon.
So she must grasp the content that she can learn from the last update and participate in the rescue of the protagonist. She can't relax yet.
However, she can choose a safer way to participate.
Li Li's heartbeat was pounding, as if it was about to jump out of her chest. She held her heart, and the fear of being discovered at any time and the danger of death made her extremely nervous.
She is looking for the main control room.
She would definitely not do such a thing as foolishly looking for the protagonist and then being trapped with him.
There is a control room in the center of the first floor of the Bronze Organization. Her purpose is very clear. She wants to disrupt the command and dispatch of the Bronze Organization and make the Bronze Organization a mess.
The leader of the Bronze Organization is a B-rank mutant. With him around, Li Li would definitely not dare to break into the base camp directly, but he is not here tonight.
Then he would just sneak out, and when the protagonist came out by himself, he would pretend to kidnap the protagonist by saying that he had "created chaos to help the protagonist escape".
This way, the risk she takes is minimal.
Li Li stared at the red dot map. Three red dots were approaching her.
She quickly crossed the aisle and hid behind the pillar of cover. The next second, another group of people came from the left and appeared at the crossroads. The light of the portable lamp illuminated the walls and the front of the barrier, stretching the black shadows.
The footsteps were approaching, and Li Li held her breath.
She was waiting for the group to move straight ahead and away from her right.
The warm orange light illuminated the dust floating in the air, and was suddenly blocked by the hand.
Someone stood next to the lantern man's hand, they turned around and walked towards Li Li!
Oh no, we'll be discovered! Li Li's breathing stagnated.
The light eroded the darkness, pushing back the shadows to reveal the human figures behind the columns.
[The item [Hide Breath] is temporarily ineffective]
Black clothes, soft short hair and
[Item [Magic Electric Shock (3min)] purchased successfully]
That unyielding smile.
The 'sizzling' sound of the electric current was heard instantly, paralyzing all three enemies before they could even utter a 'ah'.
"Bang, bang, bang."
The body fell to the ground with a heavy thud.
"'Cicada Group'! What happened!?"
The intercom was still working stubbornly, and the commander seemed to have heard something unusual.
A hand picked it up from the ground.
"It's okay, just hitting a mosquito." A hoarse male voice came from the throat. Li Li stepped over the fallen enemy. The corner of her black windbreaker fell naturally, and then raised again with the movement.
Li Li decisively exchanged the supernatural props, and the remaining 100 popularity points were not enough for her to exchange a second time. This was her only chance, and she had to make good use of it.
Li Li casually put the walkie-talkie into her pocket and let out a long sigh of relief.
It was really exciting to rush over.
Time passed by, and the three minutes of prop time was shortening rapidly. She had to go faster.
Li Li gave up stealth and rushed to the control room as fast as possible.
The young man in a black windbreaker was walking quickly in the corridor, the corners of his clothes fluttering in the wind like a fluttering tail.
"Hey, who are you?"
“Sizzle!”
The flash of electric current was fleeting, and then Martin's boots stepped over the dizzy black-robed man who fell to the ground without stopping.

Finally, Li Li arrived behind an iron gate. She turned her eyes away from the red dot map and reached out her hand.
[Countdown 00:03]
She pushed open the door of the control room, and before anyone in the room could react, the electric current light suddenly lit up.
[Countdown 00:01]
The sound of people falling to the ground was heard at random, and all the red dots on the red dot map fell unconscious.
[Item [Magic Electric Shock (3min)] Countdown 00:00]
Li Li finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She walked forward and rubbed her face, which was just smiling, to relax her facial muscles.
"I almost didn't make it. It was so scary." She murmured.
Li Li supported the control panel with both hands and scanned the surface.
The backup power supply of the Bronze Organization only supports the main control room to issue orders, and other functions are unusable. The black-robed man who had just given orders was lying on the ground. Li Li suddenly appeared and attacked him directly, and he had no time to react.
If the leader of the Bronze Organization was here, it wouldn't be that easy.
The leader of the Bronze Organization is a B-rank psychic, one rank higher than the boss. If he were in Lili, he would definitely not be able to succeed so easily.
However, the protagonist specifically chose the time when the leader of the Bronze Organization was not around, which was also part of the plan.
At this moment, a dedicated line connection suddenly came from the main control console.
"This is the Silkworm Group." The middle-aged man said, "The goods are in a state of turmoil. We need the Tiger Group to take charge."
Without even thinking, Li Li knew what the product was.
It was mentioned early in the comics that the supernatural organization Bronze Society sells supernatural people as "commodities". Tang is a high-end commodity and has been booked by a buyer early on.
The supernatural society in "Black and White" is a cannibalistic society, and existences like the Bronze Organization are not uncommon.
In this society, people with special abilities are respected, but the laws that exist can only constrain ordinary people. Someone once wanted to put shackles on people with special abilities, but he eventually died at the hands of a stronger opponent.
This is all due to the special nature of supernatural powers.
There are two ways to acquire supernatural powers: natural enlightenment and blood inheritance. Natural enlightenment is mostly achieved between life and death or when there is a major stimulus.
The upgrade methods of superpowers also include these two, and there is an additional method called same-type plundering.
For some esper, it is better to deprive others of their abilities than to expect to realize them between life and death. This is also the reason why low-level esper have a hard life.
After all, comics need enough conflict, which Li Li can understand.
The prop [Red Dot Map] issued a warning that a red dot was approaching the control room. Li Li calmed down and turned away.
The props will expire in three minutes, and Li Li avoids the red dots as she did when she came. The protagonist attracts most of the fighting force, and this trip is thrilling but not strenuous for Li Li.
Soon she was through the door and lurking in the shadows of the wall again.
"Sizzle"
"The silkworm is out of control! The silkworm is out of control!"
Li Li didn't throw away the walkie-talkie she had picked up earlier, so she could use it to eavesdrop for a while.
The protagonist chose the right time to come. That night, the leader of the Bronze Organization was away. Without a leader, the entire organization was in disarray and in a state of panic.
Li Li glanced at the red dot map and saw that the red dot she had just rushed to the control room had already reached the location. Just as she was about to leave in one go, a voice suddenly came from the intercom.
"Good night, you bastards, can you hear me?"
A calmness that was completely different from the panic of others, and even an undisguised arrogance.
"I've always wondered why my organization is full of crap."
The man spoke as if he was just chatting, not nervous at all: "Just two psychics have caused such a mess in Bronze?"
The tone of voice and the meaning of the words clearly reveal the identity of this person.
The leader of the Bronze Organization has returned with that troublesome B-rank mutant.
According to the protagonist's plan, he shouldn't come back so early!
What should I do? Should I leave now or wait for the protagonist to appear and give it a try?
She looked at the countdown of her props and found that she had about one minute left. The green dot on the map belonging to the protagonist was also approaching the gate.
Li Li took a deep breath: If she left now, she couldn't be sure whether the protagonist could escape. If the protagonist didn't escape, then she didn't know when she would have the chance to appear in the protagonist's camera again.
She'll definitely appear in the next update!
Suddenly, the red dot map screen began to change. The green dot increased its speed, and the protagonist broke through the blockade and rushed out of the door.
Li Li stood in the shadows, she turned her head
The brown-haired boy I saw on the cover page during the day turned sideways to protect a little girl of seven or eight years old. When he rushed out of the door, he happened to turn his head.
[Item [Hide Aura] countdown 00:00]
The pair of blue eyes met Li Li's dark pupils.
The face of the paper man in the comics was transformed into a real three-dimensional image, with short brown hair, beautiful eyes like the blue sky, a face still with baby fat, and a determined expression.
He seemed to have broken out of the black and white pages of the comic and appeared before her eyes.
In an instant, the boy's name appeared in Li Li's mind. It was undoubtedly the name of the comic protagonist Yiming.
In this brief moment, the young man in the bleached denim jacket froze in his tracks, as if he had made up his mind.
Li Li had no idea what the protagonist was thinking. His eyes swept across Li Li's neck, and then he grabbed Li Li's wrist.
"Follow me!" he said very quickly, "I'll help you escape!"
The little girl in his arms raised her head blankly, revealing a black choker around her neck, which was almost the same style as Li Li's.
Li Li thought of the necklace she wore to look cool, and she understood instantly.
She was considered by Yiming to be a commodity that escaped during the chaos.
She originally wanted to be a rescuer, but ended up being the one being rescued?
