Chapter 699: Epilogue (7)
Duanmu Xinqings last words were clearly meant for the dumbstruck Bear standing next to her. Faced with that question, the bald general nodded his head without even thinking. Yes, yes. Whatever Lady Mo Ke says.
Even though Southern Plains did not have many soldiers or policemen left, being awarded an official military status was a proposition that held zero demerits. For example, he could have access to those military-grade exosuits.
These military-grade exosuits were not like the entertainment exosuits at all; they required a corresponding identity in order to use them. In other words, without this officially-recognised status, Mo Ke couldnt have used those exosuits even if he managed to obtain one.
Oh, right. Arent you curious at all as to how Im suddenly able to transform?
Well, the whole crisis has led to a slew of strange events in the city. Just like how its a once-in-a-thousand-years disaster, its also an opportunity for some. As a heads up, Southern Plains has seen a few cases of ability users already As Duanmu Xinqing said that, she opened up another holographic screen. Have a look.
The screen showed footage that looked to have been taken last evening. A man, roughly thirty years of age, stood in the middle of a ruined building, shouting into the air. Behind him, an ethereal looking silhouette, clad in pitch-black armor, appeared wielding a gigantic greatsword. The silhouette came in at over five meters tall, and easily swept away the ghosts swarming towards the man.
As the man stepped forward, the black silhouette behind him would follow suit as well, all the while cleaving through the ghosts that came their way. Yet just when it looked like the man would be able to cross the border, the ghosts flying in the clouds suddenly descended upon him, taking advantage of the fact that his silhouette was occupied to overwhelm the man.
Even if the man had been blessed with a strange ability, he was still a normal human being. Under their furious clawing, the mans soul was ripped to shreds in two seconds
With his death, the black silhouette dissipated within a few seconds like it had never existed to begin with
However, that wasnt the end of the footage either. More than one ability user had been caught on camera that night. In the span of just one day, Southern Plains seemed to have gained a bunch of ability users, resulting in the Federation having to create the Bureau of Enhanced Humans and Supernatural Ability Users.
No way! I dont want to be called a Goddess of whatever! Im a man! A man!
Ke, are you trying to talk back to your mum?
Big brother, Qiaoqiao thinks the name is good too.
Your Highness this one finds the name adorable
You traitors!
Change of Scene-
Weve reached the resting place of Infernus Are you sure about this? Standing before an endless cave of darkness, and despite knowing that the person he was asking had already hardened her heart, Aques Lumen still felt he should try to dissuade his pupil one last time. There are many other ways as well
Its fine. Thank you, teacher.
Having finally walked out from the shadow of harming Mo Ke with her own two hands, Nicole stood placidly before the cave system ahead, ready to face whatever monsters that lurked within. Her blade of fire and ice had been stolen by Fertinier; it was this loss that fully showed her how large the gap was between her and the disembodied soul residing in Mo Ke.
In Nicoles eyes, Fertinier had stolen control of Mo Kes body from him, and it was her responsibility for causing this.
In order to allow her to wrestle this control back from the she-devil, or perhaps just as a form of penitence, she had embarked on this drastic course of action, all in a bid to gain strength.
