Chapter 459: Encounter with Alfred
The footsteps behind him gradually faded away. When the other person walked away, Alfred turned around, glanced at the other person's back, and smiled meaningfully.
Those three people should be the ones who violated the contract. Su Ming is here probably because he wants to kill them.
The calmest guy among the three just now, he seemed to be very interesting.
Alfred remembered that there was a person who killed him and had the same temperament as that man. That temperament was hard to describe. It was not the temperament that a strong man should have, but it was somewhat related to the temperament of a strong man.
If I have to describe it, it is that I don't have the talent to become a strong person, but I have lofty ambitions and I want to become a strong person, and I firmly believe that I can do it.
In his opinion, this kind of people are the most interesting. Although their life experiences will eventually end in tragedy, they always exude hope in the process.
Maybe in the future, he'll hear that person's story.
"Okay, business first."
"Ah——" Alfred stretched, groaned comfortably, and turned to walk towards the stairwell behind him.
He hadn't taken a few steps when he suddenly stopped and stared blankly at the elevator in front of him that was shaking slightly.
He heard the whirring sound coming from the stairwell, which was the sound of a large amount of air erupting upward from a narrow vertical passage, similar to the violent upward cyclone generated at the bottom of a narrow canyon. It was an unscientific gale.
Air flow squeezed out from the gap between the elevator and the stairwell, causing the old elevator to creak.
Immediately afterwards, there was a bang!
The elevator was blown high into the sky, and a figure jumped out from the stairwell!
The figure made a landing motion in mid-air, landing as lightly as a flying eagle. The posture reminded people of the graceful appearance of a falcon folding its wings.
Su Ming looked up and saw Alfred. He recognized him, his pupils contracted slightly, and his heart skipped a beat.
In an instant, Su Ming had made various assumptions.
These hypotheses were quickly rejected after being screened by various external factors, and what was finally left was a conjecture that was extremely close to the correct answer - before joining the Mysterious Eye, Chen Yi Jue's body had already been taken away by Alfred!
If Chen Yi Jue first made a contract with the Mysterious Eye and then had his body taken over by Alfred, then Alfred would have nothing to do with the Mysterious Eye. But since he appears here, it means that there can't be no connection, because Alfred's appearance here can't be a coincidence!
The other person stood in front of Su Ming, smiling calmly, his eyes sparkling under the starlight with a hint of contempt.
Su Ming knew very well that this person was one of the thirteen strong men who stood on par with Liu Lingshan and at the top of the pyramid of superpowers in this world!
It was so hopeless... He could never be a match for Alfred, and maybe he couldn't even run away.
The Mysterious Eye actually sent Alfred to take action all of a sudden, which shows how eager those bastards are to kill him.
"Oh, you are Su Ming!" Alfred raised his hand and greeted Su Ming enthusiastically, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes. "From your expression, it seems that you know why I am here! How do you know that I am from the Mysterious Eye?"
Alfred guessed at the first moment that his identity had been exposed, because normally no pay special attention to which body he was using. Among the S-level specialists, he was considered the most low-key.
The first time Su Ming saw him, he showed a wary look, as if he was sure he was an enemy.
What this means is self-evident.
Su Ming frowned and stared at the other party, wondering why his super intuition did not send out a danger signal. Alfred should be very strong. When Alfred flew up, his super intuition should have reminded him.
But now that he was standing here, Su Ming still had no sense of crisis facing this S-level commissioner.
Could it be that the other party has no hostility?
No, impossible! He could already sense the hostility. This was the first time he had felt such malice.
It was a kind of malice that was not particularly aggressive, just like a child holding boiling water to scald an ant, or stepping on the back of a beetle with his shoes and slowly exerting force. It was a kind of careless malice that was indifferent and without empathy... perhaps it should be called pure playing.
Su Ming was depressed. Since the other party was an enemy and wanted to kill him like stepping on an ant, why didn't his super intuition give him a crisis warning? Was his super intuition broken?
This is the bad thing about Super Intuition. Although it will give hints at critical moments, it never gives reasons. It would be better if Super Intuition could directly tell him what to do like the novice guide in a stand-alone game, so that he doesn't have to use his brain.
To be honest, no matter how hard he thought about it, Su Ming couldn't think of any reason why he could beat the opponent.
If you kill Alfred, he will be possessed by the other party directly, and if you don't kill him, he will be attacked by the other party.
If you want to subdue the opponent while ensuring your own safety , you must have the ability to completely suppress the opponent without killing him... Su Ming doesn't think he has this ability. Although the annihilation mode may be able to defeat the opponent, the annihilation mode does not have the function of leaving any survivors.
"Are you daydreaming? How dare you daydream in front of me? You don't think you can escape from me, do you?" Alfred said with a sly smile, "I have set traps around you. You will become an idiot if you move randomly."
Of course Su Ming knew it, and he noticed it when the other party made some small movements.
But Su Ming gave up on running away, because if he ran away now, when he confronted Alfred again later, it might not be a one-on-one fight.
At that time, the captain and Xia Xiaoyu and others will all become victims.
So Su Ming would rather confront the other party alone.
The night was very quiet, but the wind was a little rough. Su Ming looked at the empty space around him and felt very stressed.
He knew what was in the empty space around him. Alfred used Chen Yi Jue's special ability to set up invisible slashes around him. If he was hit by these slashes a certain number of times, he would become an idiot.
Although his domineering skills were okay, they were nothing compared to top masters like Alfred. Su Ming could almost imagine the other party using his superpowers to attack him, easily cutting through his superpower armor and leaving scars on his body.
Su Ming recalled the information about Chen Yi Jue's superpowers: release a slash of constant length and distance at any location within the range. After the superpower is activated, the location where the slash was released will release a slash again every three seconds. As the number of times the slash is hit increases, the reaction speed will slow down accordingly.
After being hit three times, the reaction speed is reduced to one tenth of the original speed, and ordinary people cannot maintain normal actions; if the number of times being hit exceeds a certain number, the intelligence will be permanently damaged, which will manifest as forgetfulness, unclear cognition, decreased calculation ability, shortened logical chain, etc.
In Alfred's hands, Chen Yi Jue's supernatural power will undoubtedly become more powerful. After all, Su Ming himself has proved with facts that the same supernatural power can have completely different effects when used by different people, and this phenomenon also applies to other people.
But what is worth noting are the fixed data in the description - the constant length and distance of the blows, and the three-second interval.
The information from the Investigation Bureau is very rigorous. The file describes it this way, proving that [Stupid Slash] may belong to the category of conceptual and conditional abilities.
The characteristic of conceptual abilities is that the effect is constant. There is no weakening or strengthening of the effect. No matter who you are facing, it is the same effect. There are only two situations: effective and ineffective.
In other words, when using conceptual powers to attack demons, the attack power is either 0 or 100% without attenuation.
If this data is part of Chen Yi Jue's concept of supernatural powers, then it can be used!
'Wang Lin, call Wang Lin!'
Su Ming sent a call request to Wang Lin in his mind. This time, the other party did not respond immediately, just like the previous times.
Fortunately, the big shot in front of him didn't seem to have any intention of killing him right away. Instead, he sat down on the ground, raised his palm, pressed down on Su Ming, and motioned Su Ming to sit down as well.
This attitude... seems like you want to talk to him?
In any case, delaying time is a good thing for Su Ming. Since the other party wants to talk, then let's talk.
Su Ming sat on the ground obediently, waiting for the other party to start the topic.
"I heard that you are a very powerful person from another dimension. In order to achieve a certain goal, you came to this dimension and then erased all your memories. Is this true?" Alfred asked.
"Is it true? Anyway, I don't remember anything that happened before." Su Ming replied honestly.
"Your purpose in coming to this world is to destroy the Mysterious Eye?"
"There are other reasons for wanting to destroy the Mysterious Eye. Don't you think the existence of the Mysterious Eye makes the world very unstable? It is too dangerous, more dangerous than most monsters."
"I admit that this power is indeed very special. In my opinion, it is a bit like the power of a demon, but even among the powers of a demon, it is the most special, so it is so fascinating." Alfred said with emotion, "But this power did not come from a demon, but from a little girl born in an ordinary family. I am puzzled."
Alfred stared into Su Ming's eyes and asked, "Is Xia Xiaoyu with you? They said she is with you and is helping you."
"Yes."
"Don't you think that girl is some kind of weird? The extraordinary power she possesses is different from most of the currently known superpowers. The special powers born in this world have high and low levels, and have their own priorities.
The most important reference standard for determining priority is the outlier value. Generally speaking, the priority of the ability of the party with a higher outlier value will always be higher.
But that girl broke this theorem, and completely broke it. When I learned that this power could hide from the eyes of other S-level specialists, I realized that this was a power that could subvert everything... This absolute priority could completely change the power system of this world."
