139: Chapter 139 Almost

Amusement Park, Ferris wheel.

The chase was still ongoing.

"Senior! 12 o'clock direction!"

As soon as Qian Mo finished speaking, Captain Li Qiaoyan instantly dodged to the side, and a giant claw subsequently landed where she had been, deeply piercing the inner wall of the Ferris wheel.

But it wasn't over yet; the young girl did not stop after dodging this attack, but continued to drift continuously to the side. In an instant, countless attacks fell, kicking up a massive cloud of dust.

Fortunately, she had finally succeeded in her "Judgment" this time, briefly boosting her own strength to around the fourth rank, which allowed her to barely dodge this dense barrage of attacks.

But just when she thought she was temporarily safe, a cold breeze suddenly brushed past her side.

She saw it out of the corner of her eye; it was a slender Star Beast.

Its aura was extremely faint, and combined with the interference from other Star Beasts, it had actually managed to sneak right up to her side.

"Can't dodge it..."

Just as Captain Li Qiaoyan subconsciously crossed her arms in front of her to protect herself, preparing to take the hit head-on.

"Whoosh!"

That Star Beast suddenly vanished on the spot.

At the same time, the young man's voice rang in her ears.

"Senior, go! I've been caught, it's up to you!"

Captain Li Qiaoyan abruptly turned her head to look in the direction of the young man, only to see that it was already surrounded by Star Beasts.

But the phantom of the black balance in the space was still there; it seemed he was the one who had just pulled the Star Beast that ambushed her away through space.

Captain Li Qiaoyan knew Qian Mo's Superpower could pull a locked-on target into a space that could not be disturbed by the outside world.

But spiritual power always has a limit, and as soon as he came out, he would inevitably be subjected to the combined attack of over a dozen Star Beasts.

After all, he was only at the third rank, and the characteristics of his Superpower determined that he was not suited for a chase.

She looked up at the destination not too far away, the smile on her face long replaced by gravity.

She had still underestimated the power of the Star Beasts.

Even if she could briefly possess fourth-rank strength now, she could still only fight to a draw with about three Star Beasts.

However... now it was all up to her!

"Roar! Roar..."

The pursuers below were constantly closing in.

She couldn't use her Nano Battle Armor to fly freely, because those few Star Beasts that could fly in the air were watching her with covetous eyes.

Now, her only option was to use the complex arrangement of iron frames on the Ferris wheel's main axle to delay the Star Beasts as much as possible.

"Come on, Qiaoyan, you're almost there!"

Suddenly, the young girl moved her consciousness slightly.

Her entire person merged with the silver spear in her hand, flying rapidly towards a certain Star Beast in the air that she had locked onto.

It turned out that just a moment ago, in order to intercept her, this Star Beast had specifically flown to a higher altitude, and at this very instant, it happened to pass by the axle box.

The young girl keenly grasped this opportunity, directly converging all her spiritual power into this one strike, striving to reach the destination at the fastest possible speed.

Vaguely, she could already see the blue-glowing barrier core inside from the corner of the box that had been blown open by the aftermath of the battle.

"Faster, a little faster, I'm about to get that damn barrier core."

But the next instant...

Just as the silver spear left the complex terrain of the main axle and was completely exposed in mid-air, a dozen Star Beasts suddenly appeared out of thin air, forming an encirclement around her...

"Damn it! It was a trap!"

"Boom!"

A huge explosion rang out in the air.

The collision between the silver spear and the Star Beasts kicked up thick smoke.

Soon, the young girl's figure flew backward out of the thick smoke, and she plummeted downwards rapidly.

Looking at the blue barrier core on the axle box that was getting further and further away, the light in Captain Li Qiaoyan's eyes dimmed bit by bit along with the white light of the silver spear in her hand.

"Why... why did I lose again..."

Her spiritual power was mostly depleted; for her to try and climb to the top of the Ferris wheel against the swarm of Star Beasts now was nothing but a pipe dream.

"Heh..."

She suddenly laughed.

As the Young Miss of the Li family, a famous Genius in the capital.

She had grown up amidst people's praise; everyone said she was a Genius, and she herself thought so too. After all, besides having Innate full spiritual power, who could raise their own spiritual power value to one hundred by the age of ten?

After Awakening her legendary grade Superpower—"Judgment Spear"—she entered Longxiang Ability University without any pressure.

Having achieved a Breakthrough to the third rank in just half a semester, she quickly became one of the stars in the school.

Although she was proud, she never forgot her original intention—to spend her life practicing true justice, just like her sacrificed father.

Thus, she quickly signed up to be an intern at the Security Bureau in the second half of her freshman year and was assigned to the Youfeng City Security Bureau.

Because her Superpower was special, she, still at the third rank, actually became an intern Silver Dragon Enforcer.

At the time, in order to prove that she was worthy of the title of Silver Dragon Enforcer, she worked diligently on missions, and almost all of them were completed independently.

Because her abilities were truly outstanding, the gossip in the Security Bureau soon vanished.

She thought she would keep on winning like this, but on that day, she, at the third rank, lost to a Star Beast with only two marks. If it hadn't been for the Star Soul Ritual, she should have died at its hands.

After recuperating for half a semester, she had just arrived at school when she encountered the ring battle organized by the Yao Race.

Because she had wasted half a semester of Cultivation, she was still at the third rank, meeting the requirements to participate.

But... she lost again, and miserably at that.

If it hadn't been for Ning Yunyan pulling her back, she believed she might have been beaten to death by that Yao Race girl.

However, because there was no Superpower backlash this time, her injuries were almost healed in just a week.

This time, she had confidently volunteered to complete the mission of destroying the barrier core, and she had truly given it her all...

Yet she still failed when she was just one step away from success.

"No! I haven't lost yet!"

The young girl flipped her wrist, and the silver spear in her hand suddenly erupted with dazzling white light.

"Even if I die, I will die on the path of practicing justice! I will take a few down with me!"

The Nano Battle Armor on her feet suddenly spewed out brilliant blue flames, quickly lifting the young girl's delicate body upward.

In the eyes of an onlooker, one would see a faint white stream of light rushing towards the black swarm of beasts like a moth to a flame.

Compared to the Star Beasts' black swarm, the white light was extremely tiny, but quite dazzling.

"Balance of Equivalence!"

The young man's voice rang out without warning.

"Huh? Why was he able to come out..."

The figure of the young girl holding the silver spear suddenly vanished in mid-air.

And the moment before she vanished, she seemed to see a huge golden beam of light suddenly lighting up behind the black swarm of beasts...

A dozen Star Beasts flying in the air had already rushed towards that direction.

It must have been what attracted the Star Beasts' attention...

But the aura of this beam of light is so familiar; I feel like I've seen it somewhere before...
