The man with long hair and sunglasses, leaning against the tree roots, gasped heavily, fresh blood continuously streaming down his cheeks… But when he looked up, his pupils dilated and his expression darkened at once.
Not dead yet!
Pei Jinye knelt on the ground, coughing in agony, spitting out a mouthful of blood-tinged sputum before he finally felt some relief.
Just now, he had embraced the man in sunglasses opposite him and faced the big move of the Silver Art… If it weren’t for the Extraordinary Golden Armor and the King Kong Indestructible Technique, he might really be dead by now!
He was gambling… but he clearly made the right bet!
Wiping the blood from his chin and straightening his mask, he struggled to rise from the ground and walked over.
“You go find Vine Man; I’ll take care of this one,”
Pei Jinye said, turning his back on Silver Art.
In the recent battle, Vine Man had fled, taking Xiao Fengchen to who knows where.
Silver Art nodded and quickly left.
Xiao Fengchen was gone?
Pei Jinye wasn’t really worried.
Vine Man, being battered like that by him, would not be able to run far even if he could.
Moreover, he had deliberately let the other party go.
Because…
He had his eyes set on the Extraordinary Abilities of the long-haired man in sunglasses before him!
He cast the Appraisal Technique.
[1.3-7.1]
Pei Jinye laughed, his bloody smile like that of a demon from purgatory.
The long-haired man in sunglasses felt an instinctive terror.
Desperately trying to activate his abilities.
He sprawled on the ground, trying to blend into the shadows, only the man opposite was faster!
The long-haired man in sunglasses was hysterical, but in the next second, he was astonished on the spot.
It seemed he couldn’t understand to his dying breath how a person could be both of the Body Technique System and the Psychic Class.
At the same time.
Two leaping sounds echoed next to his ear from Pei Jinye—
“Enter dreams!”
When he was five years old.
“Xiaozhi, what is your dream?”
“What is a dream? Grandma, what does dream mean?”
“A dream is a gift bestowed upon you by the heavens; it’s where you will become powerful once you take action.”
“Then I want to become like my father.”
“You mean to become a soldier?”
“Yes, Xiaozhi wants to become a soldier!”
When he was ten years old.
“Xiaozhi, your father has betrayed the Federation. He has led your brother and sister astray…. Child, from today onwards, you should despise your father.”
“Despise… my father? Why did he betray?”
“You do not need to know why he betrayed; you just need to know that he has willingly degenerated and forsaken the trust of the Federation. This is a disgrace to the family! From today onwards, you will lose all privileges due to your father’s influence!”
“I… hate him!”
“I hate everything! I hate all those who are happy! I want to curse them! Curse them… to death!”
Pei Jinye opened his eyes, his vision blood-red.
The resentment built up since childhood from the long-haired man in sunglasses nearly made him lose his sanity.
Luckily, the Solidifying Yuan Technique had already reached Minor Success, pulling him back from the brink at the critical moment.
“So he’s a madman!”
Pei Jinye dragged his exhausted body, propping himself up to sit.
A scene of desolation.
Pits of different sizes were the traces of the recent battle.
While waiting for Silver Art to return, he pulled up his attribute panel.
[Name]: Pei Jinye;
[Extraordinary Genes]: Psychic·Shadow Spear (1/3), Body·Diamond (1/3), Spirit·Shadow (1/3), Strength Series Fragments (1/3) (Extraordinary Genes can be fused);
[Extraordinary Abilities]: Blood Spear; Retrogression; Golden Armor; Dark Shadow Flicker;
[Vitality Value]: 1.6-5.7;
[Stamina]: 4.6-11 (average value for ordinary people is 1);
[Psychic Power]: 1.7-7.4;
[Skills]: Basic Breathing Method (Great Success 1.6%); Shock (Beginner 6.6%); Dream Hypnosis (Beginner 14.5%); Solidifying Yuan Technique (Beginner 1.3%); Blood Guiding Art (Beginner 0.3%); King Kong Indestructible (Beginner 3.1%); Psychic·Locking Technique (Beginner 0.3%); Shadow Sword Technique (Beginner 0.1%);
Pei Jinye suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
The decline in Vitality Value and Stamina was within his expectations.
The slight increase in Psychic Power was somewhat unexpected.
But what surprised him the most was the change in the column for Extraordinary Genes.
“Fusion?”
“Is it because a new system has been added, allowing for a complete fusion now?”
While Pei Jinye’s heart raced with excitement, he suddenly hesitated.
“If I choose to fuse, will my Extraordinary Abilities change?”
Without pondering for too long, Pei Jinye decisively chose to fuse.
He had nothing to fear.
He himself could strip others of their Extraordinary Genes and fuse them with his own, so what was there to fear?
With a thought,
The next moment.
The entire attribute panel underwent a seismic transformation.
And Pei Jinye suddenly felt all the cells in his body boiling, as if his Vitality was being drawn by some mysterious force, continuously shattering… and then rebirthing.
This state lasted for about two minutes.
Pei Jinye’s body felt as if it had been cleansed with water, with some slight cracking of the skin.
He ignored the cracked skin under his mask and immediately swiped open the attribute panel.
[Name]: Pei Jinye;
[Extraordinary Genes]: Devour·First Form (1/100) (Psychic·Shadow Spear (1/3), Body·Diamond (1/3), Spirit·Shadow (1/3), Strength Series Fragments (1/3), Strength Series Fragments (1/3);
[Extraordinary Abilities]: Blood spear; Retrogression; Golden Armor; Dark Shadow Flicker;
[Vitality Value]: 1.6-5.7;
[Stamina]: 4.6-12 (average value for a normal person is 1) (Devouring a Strength Gene Fragment, Physical strength limit +1);
[Psychic Power]: 1.7-7.4;
[Skill]: Basic Breathing Method (Great Success 1.6%); Shock (Beginner 6.6%); Dream Hypnosis (Beginner 14.5%); Solidifying Yuan Technique (Beginner 1.3%); Blood Guiding Art (Beginner 0.3%); Appraisal Technique (Beginner 11%); King Kong Indestructible (Beginner 3.1%); Psychic·Locking Technique (Beginner 0.3%); Shadow Sword Technique (Beginner 0.1%);
“Devour?”
What surprised Pei Jinye even more were the four words “First Form.”
Does that mean if I get ninety-nine more fragments, I will be able to enter the Second Form?
“A long journey lies ahead.”
But a name does not affect ability, so Pei Jinye didn’t probe further.
At that moment
“Demon King, are you alright?”
Silver Art approached from a distance with quick steps, carrying someone who had fainted.
After a closer inspection of Pei Jinye’s condition and the dead body beside them with a face frozen in terror, he was slightly taken aback.
Pei Jinye steadied himself against a broken tree and stood up, “I’m fine. Is he… dead?”
“No, he was making a ruckus just now, and I knocked him out cold,” said Silver Art nonchalantly.
Pei Jinye nodded, “Inform Black Shark to arrange for someone to process the scene, and let’s hand over the person.”
Silver Art nodded.
Once Black Shark received the location, they quickly arranged for their people to process the scene.
In the hovercar, upon hearing Pei Jinye cough, Silver Art couldn’t help but ask, “Are you really okay?”
Pei Jinye shook his head and closed his eyes, “I’m fine… that guy was just tough to handle.”
Silver Art agreed profoundly, “Indeed, the Shadow series belongs to the special class and is harder to deal with. But you, you’re fierce. If I had been slightly off earlier, I might have killed you too.”
Pei Jinye knew he was referring to the time when he grappled with the long-haired man wearing sunglasses to a mutual end.
He said softly, “I am aware.”
20 minutes later.
Pei Jinye and Silver Art arrived at the Red Rose Bar with Xiao Fengchen.
“Do you think he has any…” Black Shark’s words were not so explicit.
Pei Jinye simply sent over the surveillance footage, “This is the footage of us tailing him. Whether he has defected or not, that’s for you to decide.”
Seeing how straightforward Pei Jinye was, Black Shark nodded and smiled, “Well done.”
Pei Jinye paid no heed to such hypocritical praise, “Credit the merits to my account.”
“Don’t worry, you won’t be shortchanged.”
Black Shark watched Pei Jinye walk away.
Silver Art was about to leave too, but Black Shark stopped him.
“Silver Art, wait a moment, I have something to tell you.”
Silver Art glanced at Pei Jinye’s retreating figure, but he stayed, asking in a deep voice, “What is it?”
“You’ll be the one to write the Retrogression report for tonight’s action. Make it detailed.”
“What’s there to detail?”
“Like what you and Demon King said, what you did…”
“Are you suspecting Demon King?”
“Haven’t you noticed that the Demon King has changed a lot recently?”
“No.”
