648 Variable (2/2)
”Finally, we have arrived!” Li Tiantian pointed at somewhere far away.
Lan Tingxu raised his head to have a look. In the distance, the aura of a berserk beast could be felt. It belongs to a king-level beast. Such strength is actually above any average king-level beast.
A half-step domain realm!
”Just as we expected, it's a berserk beast...”
Li Tiantian was just about to say something and when a sudden force came from behind him. He heard a loud bang, and he was stunned when he turned around. From the sky, a huge mountain boulder slammed on the spot he was at earlier. Lan Tingxu had pushed Li Tiantian aside and got himself caught under the boulder instead.
”Ugh~!”
Lan Tingxu spat out a mouthful of blood, ”It seems that the density of this mountain is so thick that it actually blocks my spatial ability.”
Li Tiantian stared at him in a daze. What nonsense was he uttering? The moment they stepped onto the mountain, their energy utilization had been sealed. It was due to this reason that Lan Tingxu had to experience countless deaths. His spatial ability was rendered useless. It was just that Li Tiantian had never imagined Lan Tingxu… to actually save him.
”Why did you save me?”
”Why?” Lan Tingxu's expression was dazed, ”Well, no reason. I just recalled the time when you were small. Ugh~”
Yet another mouthful of blood was spurted out. With a pale face, Lan Tingxu continued, ”I know you hate me, but... if I'm dead, remember to take care of Little Die...”
Li Tiantian rolled his eyes.
He didn't bother with Lan Tingxu's cliche words.
One's dying words are always touching, but after listening to the same words for a dozen time, can your heart still be moved by them?
”Reverse!” Li Tiantian was too lazy to entertain his nonsense.
Swish~
Time reversed.
When they reached the top, when Lan Tingxu was irritated to the max by Li Tiantian's words, he suddenly saw a huge boulder incoming. He was about to push Li Tiantian aside when Li Tiantian quickly took a huge leap to the side.
”You…” Lan Tingxu's eyes opened wide, ”You even knew about this?”
Li Tiantian just casually looked at him. ”Obviously.”
Lan Tingxu calmly said, ”There must be another retard who had died, right?”
”Hahahaha.” Li Tiantian suddenly burst in laughter. This time, he laughed so hard that his stomach was in pain.
”What are you laughing at!” Lan Tingxu's face was awkward.
”Thank you.”
It was as if Li Tiantian had untied a knot in his heart; he walked forward while laughing in tears, leaving behind the clueless Lan Tingxu, ”This guy, he must have said some nonsense again.”
However...
No one noticed that some of Li Tiantian's hair had already turned white.
The side effects of a grade S talent are definitely not as simple as one thought they would be.
Gaoyuan City...
Wind surged like a gathering storm; the whole city was shrouded by an inexplicable aura. As for the surrounding peaks, they are all hidden in the midst of thick clouds and fogs. Being unable to see the sky, the situation here is extremely strange. It was this aura which blocked all signals, causing the satellite to be unable to detect the city. Here, it was as if there is nothing but void.
It was not only Li Tiantian's group sent by the Federation.
At the west side of the mountain range, a proudful young man flew across the sky. On his back is a pair of huge wings, angel's wings which are proudly flipping. This is one top tier ability in the flying category.
”Humph, those bunch of losers. I knew they wouldn't be able to find anything.”
One could sense arrogance from the way he carries himself.
He might be weak in combat, but when it comes to investigations, he's an expert! Even the origin techniques he learned are used for escape and detection. To enter danger zones are naturally his field. At a young age, he achieved many great accomplishments in the military. Naturally, he would be proud of himself.
”Well, let me see.”
The young man flapped his wings, forming green wind.
The mountains in front of him suddenly turned clear as the shield was automatically dissipated. He then flew higher in the sky to provide himself a panoramic view of the mountain range.
Swish!
Within the mountain range, a person was climbing up a mountain with difficulty.
”To climb up at such a strange time?”
Boom!
His wings moved in synchronization.
The young man flew over there in a blink of an eye.
”Who?”
That man was somehow afraid by the sudden appearance that he took a few steps back.
”Isn't this something that I should ask instead? To climb up at this time, could you be a berserk beast here?” The young man's eyes lit up.
”No, I'm not.”
The man nervously denied and quickly revealed the badge on his chest, ”I am a journalist from Federal Daily and came here to report the situation in Gaoyuan City.”
”Federal Daily?” The young man was stunned.
Damn it!
He hasn't even had a clear look of the city's situation, and a random journalist appeared here already?
”This is a military secret. Quickly leave this place now or don't blame me for being rude!” The young man said in an angry tone.
”Oh, okay then.” The journalist knew that he had seen something which he shouldn't have, but still then still asked cautiously, ”I heard that the government has a special esper and his investigative ability is extremely high. Could it be you?”
”It's just a mere talent.” The young man was extremely proud but remained modest on the surface.
”I see.” The journalist's face brightened, ”My idol, many journalists do admire you. Can I have a photo with you?”
