The Creatures That We Are

Chapter 370: Shut Up

Chapter 370: Shut Up

The entire amusement park was shrouded in Tong’s telekinesis power. Even with Heavenly Dog in her blindspot, she could still sense the danger approaching.

She turned to the side agilely. The space where she had been was momentarily displaced, the blood fog on the ground splitting as well before quickly going back to normal. With a clack, the telephone booth flying behind her had been cut in half.

Tong twirled and waved her hand lightly, sending Lithe Snake flying toward Heavenly Dog. Catching the unconscious man, Heavenly Dog took him to safety and laid him down.

While Tong was distracted, Nine Frost had come up to her from the side, making a straight punch at her face.

He was so quick that his fist was only stopped by telekinesis when it had almost touched Tong’s face. The force of the punch lifted the veil of the hat, revealing Tong’s dark complexion and old, loose skin, her thin white hair hanging down.

Tong came to a sudden halt, panic and shame flashing through her eyes. It seemed that she didn’t want others to see her face.

“Don’t—” she growled furiously, “Bully me!”

Swoosh.

Gao Yang rescued Nine Frost with Teleportation.

Half a second later, a wave of powerful telekinesis force tore the merry-go-round behind Nine Frost into pieces.

“No!” Citrus cried out.

Gao Yang, having just saved Nine Frost, started.

He turned around to see a young man missing his lower body.

He was Chu Feng, Citrus’ boyfriend. He had been hiding behind the merry-go-round in order to sneak up on Tong, but unexpectedly, the killing force Tong had sent Nine Frost’s way ended up catching the merry-go-round.

While Chu Feng had jumped away immediately, he was a step too late, and he ended up torn in half.

Gao Yang’s heart sank. No, they must end things swiftly, or they would all die here.

“Ronnie!” Gao Yang shouted.

At that moment, Can and Ronnie showed up behind a tree.

“Look for a chance!”

“Got it!” Ronnie responded.

After the three organizations decided to form an alliance, all Rune Circuits outside of the Miracle Rune Circuit were temporarily shared between the organizations, and Ronnie managed to level up Disorientation to level 4.

Now, he could differentiate friends and foes to some degree.

Basically, his Talent had worked 100% on friends and foes alike in the past, but now, it would be 120% effective on the enemies while only 80% effective on his companions.

“Can, get on!” Gao Yang had replicated Nine Frost’s Weak Point. He was going to repeat the same trick he had pulled when killing Black Tortoise.

Can quickly rushed over and hopped onto his back. They disappeared from Tong’s view.

Gao Yang teleported.

A fireball came out of nowhere and flew toward Tong. With a simple look, the fireball scattered and dispersed before it could reach her, but it was merely a feint. A distorting power that could cut the space came at her again.

Tong could sense the direction and the trajectory the energy was going in, and she easily dodged to the side by predicting its motion.

At that moment, however, she sensed powerful killing intent from her left. It came so quickly that Tong failed to detect the trajectory.

It was only natural. Teleportation, at its core, was an ability that made one jump space. And with Can’s Invisibility, Tong couldn’t see them. Not even her telekinesis power could alert her in time.

Gao Yang swung his fist at Tong's chest with Weak Point.

He thought he was going to succeed.

However, his fist still stopped a few centimeters from Tong’s chest.

An invisible barrier of telekinesis had caught his fist, but failed to offset the force of it. Tong ended up thrown off balance, falling onto the ground.

Like a kid getting pushed down by an adult, she cast the teddy bear in her hand away angrily and kicked her feet in the air, throwing a tantrum.

“Wah—you’re terrible... I’m gonna kill you...”

As she cried, the telekinesis power around her doubled in strength.

She gave up on her control over the large objects, leaving them falling to the ground. Instead, she compressed her telekinesis to thirty meters in her radius.

The power was dense and all-encompassing. Gao Yang felt suddenly weighed down, unable to even lift his feet, and his internal organs twisted and turned like they were going to be crushed by the invisible power.

Even Heavenly Dog, flying above Tong, ended up falling to the ground.

Invisibility had deactivated. Can, unable to endure the oppressive force of the telekinesis power, fell from Gao Yang’s back.

Ronnie activated Disorientation without hesitation then.

Everyone’s mind was plunged into chaos, but at the same time, the overwhelming power had lifted significantly as well.

“Ugh...” Tong covered her ears. “It’s noisy! So noisy!”

A few seconds later, the telekinesis power gained the upper hand again, retaliating against Ronnie’s psychic attack.

Ronnie threw up blood and dropped to his knees.

“Spatial Dissection!”

Lying prone on the ground, Heavenly Dog splayed his hands and activated his Talent again. The disturbance from the telekinesis power skewed his aim, however, and he ended up cutting the sleeves of her dress and a small part of her skin.

Tong wailed in pain. Like a child, she couldn’t take pain at all.

However, her power grew even stronger at the same time.

Gao Yang couldn’t even stand up, forced to drop to one knee.

No!

Everyone’s gonna die if this goes on!

“Teleportation!”

With a scream, he pushed himself to the limit to teleport to Tong’s back, shooting energy out of his hands.

“Fire...”

His Fire stuttered.

Shoulder bleeding, Tong angrily raised her hands and tapped into her full power, her gaze venomous.

“I’m...going to kill all of you!”

Tong shrieked. Gao Yang felt invisible hands closed around him, attempting to crush him then and there. He tapped into all his energy to resist it, but his effort would only delay his death.

“Captain...you can’t die...”

Ronnie propped himself up with both hands, his mouth full of blood and his eyes bloodshot.

Pulling his lips into a smile, he said, “I’ll entrust Xiran and my dream to you...”

No!

Don’t just say that, Ronnie!

Go to the Gates of Closure yourself! I’m not bearing the weight for you! I have enough on my shoulders already!

Ronnie looked up and concentrated all his energy to his chest, pushing it out through his throat.

At that moment, his Disorientation reached level 5, making the Talent 150% effective against enemies, while 70% effective against his companions.

Everyone covered their ears, their heads threatening to explode.

“Stop screaming. Shut up, shut up, shut up!” Tong could no longer take it. She pulled her hands back to cover her ears, her telekinesis power retracting to her instantly.

Gao Yang was thus saved, but severely disoriented, he couldn’t yet move, and he could barely think.

“Shut. Up!”

Two seconds later, Tong retaliated. She had pulled back her power from around her and honed it to target the source of the noises, Ronnie.

Ronnie stopped screaming immediately, throwing up a mouthful of blood. Even the blood remained in the air, defying gravity.

Restrained by powerful telekinesis power, Ronnie was lifted off the ground.

At the last second of his life, he looked at Gao Yang with bloodshot eyes, his gaze brimming with the reluctance to part with his companions and his gentle farewell.

Boom!
