Chapter 143: Chapter 141: Noting the Scent

Yan Biqing had just steadied himself when a beam of white light descended from the sky, enveloping him and making all his movements sluggish.

Yan Xiu held the cross at his chest, kneeling on another rooftop, his body trembling slightly. It was difficult for him to restrain an expert like Yan Biqing.

Everything that had happened seemed to have taken a very long time, but in reality, less than a minute had passed. Lin Zheyuan and other superpower users also landed one by one on this rooftop, surrounding Yan Biqing.

Even with Disaster-Level strength, it was a pipe dream for Yan Biqing to think he could take on so many opponents alone.

Within the white light, Yan Biqing’s demeanor became more and more composed; he had adjusted himself to the most suitable state for this light.

"To deal with all of you at once is still somewhat difficult for me, so see you next time." Yan Biqing gave a stiff smile and his body transformed into a green phantom, dropping directly down to the floor below.

He had the ability to travel between communication devices; he only needed a functioning phone to escape.

Nobody could stop him!

But soon, his expression darkened, as all the electronic devices within the building were not functioning!

He could only remain in Imaginary Space for a few seconds at a time, so soon he was blocked again by the people of the Hunters Association.

"You’ve worked at the Association before, so you should know our style. Once we take action, we won’t give you a chance to escape."

Lin Zheyuan’s eyes sparkled with a cyan light, his powerful attack ready to launch.

"Since you can travel between electronic devices, we naturally blocked all signals within a kilometer radius before we came to capture you. We cut off all telephone lines and network connections, closing off your escape routes."

"Moreover, you’re strong when fighting alone but not good at dealing with multiple opponents. When you enhance one aspect of your abilities, the others weaken. Understanding this weakness, even if I don’t act, you can’t win!"

Lin Zheyuan planned to resolve the matter of Yan Biqing here. The Ranger ’Bing He’ would arrive at Furong River City in a few days, and Lin Zheyuan didn’t want Yan Biqing still around by then.

"Heh, hehe, ha, haha."

Yan Biqing laughed stiffly, his smile much more natural than it was initially. Since he had taken control of this body, he had been trying to become a human.

So he learned everything about being human from Yan Biqing’s memories.

He learned to make friends, so he helped others online fulfill their promises.

He learned to be a fan, so he went to meet Sun Wei and decided to kill Sun Wei when he was disappointed.

Even though his learning process was a bloody path, he didn’t see it that way himself.

Because he was learning.

"In Yan Biqing’s memories, the Hunters Association is an organization that protects humans and maintains balance... but you are not; you’re just a violent organization from a human standpoint, eliminating all threats to humans."

Around Yan Biqing’s body, green streams of data flowed like ribbons, covering his entire body, his hair standing on end.

Since escaping conveniently wasn’t an option, he could make a more troublesome direct breakout; his abilities were not scared of anyone in combat!

"You’ve turned into a super forgiver, huh? Sorry, but I have to keep you here today, hope you can forgive me," Wen Wen casually said, flicking his ear.

No sooner had he finished speaking than everyone struck at Yan Biqing simultaneously, yet Yan Biqing managed to block every attack.

Energy, speed, strength, he blocked them all!

Being able to enhance only one attribute was his weakness before he advanced. After advancing, like Lin Zheyuan, he also entered a peculiar state.

And now, he was in that state, all his body attributes had dramatically increased!

After blocking all attacks, Yan Biqing charged towards You Han, hoping to use him as a breakthrough to escape the encirclement.

He only needed to reach a place with electronic devices to easily escape, even though the cooldown time for this travel was long, he needed just one use.

Outside the combat zone, Ding Mingguang took a wet towel and wiped the sweat off his forehead, let out a breath, and said softly,

"Goodbye, teacher."

While Yan Biqing was occupied fending off the others, he didn’t notice that beneath his feet, in the stream of data, an imaginary ape was clutching its bright red buttocks and crawling along those data streams into his body.

Once inside, the data streams on Yan Biqing’s body suddenly stuttered, and then he actually reached down to scratch his buttocks, just like an ape!

Programmer Ape, like a computer virus, had infiltrated his body and was affecting his abilities!

As an entity that only lived in the virtual world, Programmer Ape was naturally a nemesis to Yan Biqing’s abilities.

Moreover, the levels among superpower users were not that strict; the suppressive effects between various abilities were significant, and there were countless examples of the weaker overcoming the stronger.

Seizing the opportunity, Wen Wen was the first to rush forward, delivering another mental shock to Yan Biqing before thrusting two daggers toward his eyes!

If the strike was solid, Wen Wen would win this bet.

However, at that moment, another twist occurred—a walkie-talkie that was turned on flew by, skimming over Yan Biqing’s head!

Yan Biqing seized this chance and transformed into a data stream, diving into the walkie-talkie and disappearing from the encirclement.

This carefully planned encirclement operation thus failed!

Wen Wen’s daggers had pierced Yan Biqing’s chest but had not penetrated deeply, only leaving some fresh blood.

"Damn it!"

Wen Wen stomped fiercely, creating a hole in the ceiling. Seeing success slip away just as victory seemed imminent because Yan Biqing had escaped, he was so frustrated that he could hardly speak.

"What’s going on? We should have blocked the signals." Lin Zheyuan’s brow furrowed into a knot. Letting Yan Biqing escape meant unpredictability, and that was what he least wanted to see now.

"Clearly, there has been a hiccup," Lin Lu sighed. She hadn’t played much of a role in this roundup.

Ding Mingguang ran over, picked up the walkie-talkie, took a close look, and then threw it on the ground.

"The power of this walkie-talkie is strong, and someone just disabled the signal jamming here..."

"That guy has an accomplice!" Gong Baoding said gravely.

While they were discussing, Wen Wen crouched on the ground, his face ashen. He obviously knew who had intervened and saved that guy.

Who else could it be if not Gao Fang?

He took out a small bottle and tried to collect some of Yan Biqing’s fresh blood, planning to use it to boost Qingqing’s strength.

Then, he dipped a finger in the blood and put it to his nostrils.

By now, he had memorized that guy’s scent.
