Chapter 249
[No.1: It is impossible for Su Bei to collude with Nightmare Beast]
[No.2: I feel like the OP is talking about conspiracy theories]
[No.3: Although I also think that Su Bei in these two chapters is weird, but you said that he colluded with the Nightmare Beast, I think it’s a bit slanderous]
[No.4: The poster is suspected to be a Subei anti-fan]
[No.5: I think it is more likely that Su Bei is colluding with the "Black Flash" organization.]
[You are me, then who am I? No.6 (Original Poster) replied to No.4:
I am not, I am analyzing rationally.]
【……】
[No.41: I think what the original poster said makes sense. When Su Bei pulled the light, he might have really been talking to the spider and cockroach nightmare beast in order to attract the students of Class S to come over.
But in terms of purpose, have you forgotten what important intelligence they got in the shopping mall?】
【No.42 replied to No.41:
You mean, Su Bei deliberately led them here so that they could hear the method to destroy the Nightmare Beast?]
[No.43: What you said before makes sense! But if that’s the case, why can’t Su Bei just say it directly?]
【No.44 replied to No.43:
Maybe it's the limitation of supernatural power. Didn't Su Bei and Feng Lan often say similar things before?]
[No.45: Would Su Bei have such good intentions? Why do I feel like he is more like the kind of person who knows how to completely destroy the nightmare beast, but just won't tell everyone, leaving everyone to figure it out on their own]
【No.46: Hahahahahaha the comments above are so heartwarming】
【……】
[No.99: I suddenly remembered, do you remember the conversation between Su Bei and Ling You before? His goal is human immortality! Could the human immortality he mentioned be the method by which humans can completely eliminate nightmare beasts?]
【No.100 replied to No.99:
This word awakened the dreaming girl!】
【No.101 replied to No.99:
Su Bei is such a good person!】
[No.102: Speaking of which, Su Bei and the Black Flash organization actually have the same goal. They both want to completely destroy the Nightmare Beast.]
【No.103 replied to No.102:
What you said means that the goal of the positive side is also to completely destroy the nightmare beast.】
[No.104: In fact, everyone has the same goal. After all, Nightmare Beasts are the common enemy of mankind. It’s just that different people have different solutions when facing the same enemy, and the Superpower Government and the “Black Flash” organization have obviously chosen two completely different paths.]
【No.105 replied to No.104:
What about Northern Jiangsu? What category is Northern Jiangsu?
【No.106 replied to No.105:
It could be the positive side, or it could be a third party, but I believe he is not a member of the "Black Flash" organization.]

After reading the general content of the post, Su Bei heaved a sigh of relief. Although the original poster's attitude towards him was not very good, thinking that he was colluding with the Nightmare Beast, this was no different from treason in the world view of "Superpower King".
But probably due to his high popularity, other readers do not think so. Even if they think so, they guessed the truth through the cause and effect, and did not hastily believe that he is a villain.
This made Su Bei sigh. Fortunately, he told Ling You the truth and revealed his real purpose. Otherwise, readers might have suspected him. He just wanted to leave a way out for himself, but he didn't expect that this way out would be used.
Generally speaking, no one developed an aversion to him because of this. On the contrary, many people thought he was a good person because they linked this incident to his pursuit of human immortality.
Su Bei rubbed his brows and silently wondered whether this was a good thing.
Bad guys who break the law can certainly die, but good guys can die too. There are not many white moonlights who die early in comics. If a pure good guy character is not the protagonist, he may not live long.
Therefore, even if the author does not give him the identity of a villain, he should seriously consider contacting the "Black Flash" organization.
Only if he can make readers feel that he is a master of both the black and white worlds and that he is extremely powerful, will readers not easily believe that he will die. Even if something really happens, maybe he can use the forum and the "Prophet" to revive.
Today is such a tiring day, Su Bei thought sincerely while lying on the bed. Although he knew at the beginning of today that this would not be an ordinary day, he did not expect it to be so extraordinary.
I thought it was the end of the mission, but it turned out to be the beginning of a crisis. I successfully solved the world crisis, but in the blink of an eye I had to face the crisis from the author.
Just as he had thought when he first drew this comic, he could only be truly liberated when "The King of Superpowers" was completely completed.
Before that, as a character created by the author, it was difficult to have absolute freedom, regardless of whether you were taken seriously or not.
Thinking of this, Su Bei suddenly asked himself: "Has the author thought about the content of the comic's finale?"
"Originally, we were supposed to completely destroy the Black Flash organization." The "comic consciousness" immediately appeared, "but now, we should completely destroy the Nightmare Beast."
Hearing this, Su Bei showed a look of understanding. Compared with destroying the "Black Flash" organization, destroying the Nightmare Beast is definitely a bigger goal, so it will naturally be a more important goal and be completed in the finale.
Originally, Su Bei thought that as long as he could implement the method of completely destroying the nightmare beast, the next thing would have nothing to do with him. Now, it seems that for the sake of his own safety and to gain true freedom, he has to continue working hard and strive to help the author finish the comic as soon as possible.
After the manga is finished, the author probably won't bother looking for him anymore.
The next day was an ordinary day. Although it was a luxury to say that it was ordinary in the main battlefield, compared with yesterday, today was indeed ordinary. Because they were afraid that they had been targeted by the nightmare beast, everyone stayed near the hotel to eliminate the nightmare beast and complete the task of clearing the safe zone.
But the strange thing is that even though they have so many superpowers cleaning up day and night, the nightmare beasts are still numerous. Logically speaking, since the nightmare beasts have prepared so many nightmare beasts to fight this time, they can definitely compete with the superpowers. Why bother to carry out that stupid plan to kill ordinary people?
As the saying goes, force can defeat skill. If you have enough offensive power, there is no need to resort to any tricks or schemes.
Although even with so many nightmare beasts they may not be able to defeat the supernatural government, it is better than their current plan.
To be honest, there are enough ordinary people, and they cannot be killed all, especially when only one low-level nightmare beast can escape among thousands of them.
Ordinary people can't destroy nightmare beasts, but they can trap them! Low-level nightmare beasts are usually beasts with no ability, and can be covered with a net bag. Before being trapped, a nightmare beast can kill three or four people, which is considered powerful.
So Su Bei had a hunch that the plan on the surface was not the Nightmare Beast's real plan. They must have another purpose for doing this, but he didn't know what it was. However, if nothing unexpected happened, he should be able to get the answer soon.
As expected, just one day later, something happened outside. Originally, only three alien space gates were raised in this battle, and the gate of Suqi City was the largest. But today, alien space gates were raised all over the country, a total of ten.
You know, ten doors to different dimensions appearing in one breath is a lot for the whole world, let alone appearing in one country.
The world was shocked, and many countries sent emergency support. If their country fell, other countries would also suffer. So no matter what grievances and disputes they had in normal times, they were united at this time.
The Nightmare Beast of Suqi City also changed its strategy overnight, from its previous all-out breakout to its original attack on the psychics.
According to the investigation, the nightmare beasts that escaped before were not trying to kill ordinary people, but to open the door to the alien space through sacrifice. This should be a new method developed by the nightmare beasts, and once used, it caught humans off guard.
But since Su Bei could detect the abnormality, the supernatural government would certainly not be completely unnoticed. They had anticipated the current situation, and although they failed to successfully stop the Nightmare Beast's conspiracy, they had made sufficient preparations.
On the day when multiple doors to different dimensions appeared, the government began to arrange for everyone to go to various places for support in an orderly manner. Su Bei and others were dispersed to serve as auxiliary.
Not only them, because there were too many nightmare beasts, other first-year students in the academy were not spared this time and were all pulled into the battle. Although they could do almost nothing, as long as they could destroy low-level nightmare beasts, they would be a fighting force.
For the safety of Su Bei and others, the supernatural government chose to send them out in small teams instead of sending them out individually. For students, the safety factor will increase significantly if they cooperate with familiar classmates.
Because they are students, the government considerately allows them to form teams of three or four people, report to the government, and then they can start to be assigned work.
Even within a class, there are close and distant relatives, so everyone naturally teams up with acquaintances. The three protagonists are in a fixed group, Si Zhaohua and Ai Baozhu are in a fixed group, and Mo Xiaotian and Mu Tieren are in a fixed group. The remaining ones are Qi Huang, Su Bei, Wu Jin, and Li Shu, and the four of them can freely choose a group to join.
Wu Jin and Qi Huang went to the group of the wooden iron man. The former felt that this group had a squad leader, which made him feel more at ease. The latter felt that this group needed a strong attacker like her.
Li Shu originally wanted to join Jiang Tianming's team, but was decisively rejected, so he had to join Si Zhaohua's team.
The last one was Su Bei. He teamed up with Jiang Tianming and the other two without any hesitation.
If this had happened, Su Bei would have stayed away from the protagonists. After all, it was obvious that following them would trigger a plot, and unless he had nothing to do, who would want to cause trouble?
But now it's different, he needs more plots to support his irreconcilable relationship with Nightmare. Su Bei can become a member of the "Black Flash" organization, but he can never become a member of Nightmare.
This is a very good opportunity. As long as Su Bei kills enough nightmare beasts, even if someone doubts him, readers can use his performance this time to refute him.
In fact, all she needed to do was use the "Prophet" account to clarify these matters, but Su Bei did not plan to activate this account in the short term. In other words, he did not plan to use this account to talk about things related to himself.
Now that the comic book author has noticed his existence and wants to see the readers' reaction to get him offline, the "prophet" account must not be too active. Once he is noticed by the author, and then looking at his previous comments, Su Bei feels that he will be easily blocked.
After all, he didn't know that such things would happen in the future, and he didn't try to hide the fact that he knew a lot of inside information. Sometimes he would even deliberately reveal some of it to increase his credibility.
The disadvantage of saving time at that time has now become apparent, and Su Bei will not be able to use this number in the short term.
Once the "Prophet" account was blocked, he would not only lose a major influence on the forum, but also a trump card. As a result, he became very passive and could only remain silent for the time being.
No one was too surprised that Su Bei chose to team up with Jiang Tianming and the other two. Each of the three groups had people who had a good relationship with Su Bei, and they didn't know who the protagonist was, so they naturally thought it was reasonable for Su Bei to join any group.
The students were not assigned tasks right away, and for the time being they stayed in Suqi City to destroy the nightmare beasts. This period of time was left for those powerful psychics to explore the ten alien space gates, and they would be allowed to participate in the battle only after judging the degree of danger.
After a full day, the three groups were assigned to different cities. Along with them came a document containing the nightmare beasts and mission information of the cities they were going to.
"Moyun City, the alien space appeared outside the city, it's good luck." Lan Subing sighed as she read the information on the paper. There is a city wall blocking it, and the entrance is not big, it is much safer than other cities.
Wu Ming nodded in agreement: "We just need to guard the city gate. It seems that the task is not difficult."
However, Jiang Tianming frowned slightly: "But it seems that there are no powerful psychics arranged here. When I looked at the squad leaders' information before, they always mentioned the powerful psychics arranged in the city. It seems that our information has the least."
"After all, they think this place is very safe." Su Bei was not surprised at all. If there were many powerful psychics and the city was really impregnable, the protagonists would not have been sent here.
After hearing this, everyone's mood suddenly became less relaxed. Without a powerful superpower, there is no backup. Although if something really happens, the superpower government will definitely send a powerful superpower to rescue the situation as soon as possible. But there will definitely be a time lag in the middle, and they will still have to hold on when the time comes.
Jiang Tianming only hoped that the nightmare beasts would not notice Mo Yun City. Although they were never afraid of danger, they also did not want to always be in danger.
When they arrived not far from the outskirts of Mo Yun City and saw the situation below, everyone, including Su Bei, couldn't help but gasp.
The densely packed nightmare beasts surrounded the city wall, a huge black mass that made it almost impossible to see the shape of the city gate. The flying nightmare beasts were harassing the city from above, while the non-flying ones were climbing up one after another. The overall scene was like zombies besieging the city, and anyone who saw it would subconsciously feel fear.
The name of Moyun City and the scenery outside the city perfectly confirm the words of a poem: "Dark clouds are pressing down on the city, and it seems to be destroying it."
At that time, everyone was sitting on a huge paper plane, overlooking the scenery of Moyun City from high above. This was a supernatural creation of an origami supernaturalist, which could achieve fixed-point flight without a pilot, equivalent to an unmanned helicopter.
In a city like this where the alien space is placed outside the city, they can only rely on flying vehicles to reach the city safely. After all, the outside of the city is surrounded by nightmare beasts, and it is extremely difficult to squeeze through them.
"So many..." Lan Subing's pupils shrank slightly.
Su Bei's heart was also a little heavy. Thinking about having to deal with so many nightmare beasts, he wanted to travel to the third dimension and strangle the author to death. Obviously, he should have been lying down by now!
From this angle, in addition to the densely packed nightmare beasts, you can also see a number of psychics standing on the towers fighting the nightmare beasts. Most of them were specially arranged to come here. Congratulations to the psychics for being able to clear a large area by themselves, but compared to the densely packed nightmare beasts, humans still look too small.
Seeing a flying object suddenly appear in the sky, everyone on the tower could not help but get nervous. But when they saw that it was a paper plane, they could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. Many of them also came here by paper plane, so they naturally knew that this was a means of transportation for the supernatural government, and that new support must have arrived.
It's good to have support, because there aren't many powerful espers here, and what they lack the most is espers. But it's not just here, probably every one of the ten cities needs espers.
The psychics who had been here to support the troops had immediately put up a layer of defense on the paper plane to prevent it from being shot down by the nightmare beast. However, this layer of defense could only protect the paper plane, not the people on it.
Fortunately, the four people from Su Bei were not pushovers. They didn't take the attacks of a few low-level nightmare beasts, or even the flying mid-level nightmare beasts seriously. Lan Subing alone could handle them all.
Seeing them resolve the nightmare beast's harassment so quickly, the psychics on the city wall breathed a sigh of relief and their eyes lit up. If a powerful psychic came, it would undoubtedly reduce their pressure. And judging from the performance of the four Su Bei people just now, their psychics should be quite strong.
The paper plane flew slowly all the way to the city center, where there was a special location for receiving supporters.
The people waiting there were looking forward to it, but they were all stunned the moment they saw the four people. Because the paper planes were so big and they flew so high, people had never seen what these new psychics looked like.
Now they saw it, but it was not what they expected. Su Bei and the others were obviously underage, probably only about 15 or 16 years old. At this age, they were obviously forced to come to the battlefield.
No wonder they were disappointed. What kind of help could a group of students provide?
However, there are also some knowledgeable psychics here. One of them, a short-haired woman, was stunned for a moment, and then her expression suddenly became surprised: "I have seen you before, you are the winners of this year's three-school competition!"
Because the contestants this year were all very strong and the competition was quite interesting, the short-haired girl who watched the live broadcast was very impressed by them and recognized them at once.
As soon as she said this, the supernaturals around her breathed a sigh of relief. To be able to participate in the three-school competition, he must be the best in the academy. Even if he is only a freshman, his strength should not be underestimated.
After all, in the supernatural world, talent is always more important than hard work. Some people's starting point for becoming supernaturals is already higher than others' end point as supernaturals.
"I remember now, these players are really good!" Another person who watched the game recalled his memory and said excitedly, "I remember your ability is [Word Spirit]. You are a destiny-related ability user. You have an earth-related ability that can create earthquakes. You have several abilities!"
He pointed them out one by one, and then said proudly: "My memory is not bad, right?"
Jiang Tianming and others nodded, indicating that what he said was true.
Now everyone was completely relieved. The superpower government did not send a few ignorant students to deal with them, but sent real elites. Although these elites were still students, as long as they had strong superpowers, it was enough.
The leader of the group came out and pointed at the egg yolk pie on the table: "You guys eat something here to replenish your energy first. I'll take this opportunity to explain the situation to you. Then you'll go up the city wall. By the way, let me introduce myself. My name is Chen Ze."
Due to time constraints, they could not give these newly arrived students any time to rest and could only let them join the battle as soon as possible.
The four of them nodded and started eating the food they were interested in. Although they were not hungry at the moment, snacks were good to satisfy their cravings.
"Inside the alien space gate outside the city is a grassland map. The powerful psychics assigned here have basically gone to the alien space to deal with high-level psychics, so our defense outside is relatively weak." After organizing his thoughts, Chen Ze introduced skillfully, "The nightmare beasts coming out of this alien space are mainly grassland creatures. The ones with smaller attack power are horses, cattle and sheep, and the ones with greater attack power are lion nightmares, nightmare dogs, etc."
At this point, he took a sip of water to moisten his throat. "In fact, there are some bigger ones, such as the Nightmare Elephant. But fortunately, the entrance to this alien space is not big, so those nightmare beasts that are too big have to wait until the end to come out, otherwise it will delay the time for other nightmare beasts to come out. We also want to take advantage of this, so we go in and out in advance to eliminate these high-level nightmare beasts."
If they were allowed to come out of the alien space, it would be very troublesome to deal with them, after all, there were ordinary people in the city. Once those large nightmare beasts appeared, it was very likely that a large number of people would be killed or injured immediately.
"If any of you have the ability to attack in a group, go to the wall and tell the commander in advance. He will be responsible for arranging you to a suitable position. If not, you will probably just play a supporting role."
After all, they were facing a large number of low- and medium-level nightmare beasts. No matter how powerful a single attack was, it would be useless unless a high-level nightmare beast suddenly appeared. So group attacks were more popular here.
