Chapter 71 Provocation

Dante didn't have to wait long for a group of people to come over in a helicopter. The helicopter found a clear landing zone nearby and touched down, revealing three passengers who sat in the back.

Two of them were female and one was male. The two females were very young and of different ethnicities.

The one seated opposite the man was of Asian descent with pristine white skin that seemed to glow in the darkness, especially as the moon shone on her.

She had silvery-black hair that was tied into a bun with a green hairpin, alluring purple eyes, and pitch-black lips that looked gothic. There was the symbol of a glowing crescent moon on her forehead and she wore a clean purple dress that fit her svelte body gently.

The other one was a dark-skinned beauty who had a V-shaped face and wore a wide grin. She wore a white suit with pants and a black blouse within that could barely hide her surging assets in the front and at the back.

Her white hair was tied into a ponytail and her dark blue eyes shone with a hint of craziness and belligerence.

Finally, there was the man, who was mature. He had a head full of brown hair as well as plain brown eyes. He was deeply tanned and had his upper body bare, displaying his tight muscles. He only wore a pair of black pants that stretched easily as he moved.

The three identified Dante who was causally standing there in a lazy posture with the corpses at his feet. This made the faces of the three become solemn as they sensed a dangerous vibe from Dante that they had never felt before.

Dante also glanced at them casually. The reason he did not hide his face was because he didn't necessarily plan to let anyone who came here today live. Even if they recorded him using satellites or cameras and stored it somewhere, he could easily hack and clean out any database, even if it was offline.

A Quantum Network was all about creating connections through spacetime, it didn't require any rubbish like signal or connectivity.

The three disembarked and walked confidently towards Dante, stopping when they were ten meters away. This gave both sides time to assess each other head-on and know what to do.

The more the other three observed Dante, the more their hearts sank. Each of them had different abilities and focuses, so what they saw was different.

The silvery black-haired woman with the moon symbol on her forehead noticed Dante's calm mental state. She saw the flash in his eyes that indicated superior mental acuity and knew that his thoughts probably ran faster than any of them could fathom.

The white-haired woman with the white suit noticed the youthfulness of Dante and his body language which was filled with a hint of playfulness. She could feel that he had grasped the entirety of their existence as well as power and was not impressed nor pressured at all.

The brown-haired man with a bare chest immediately noticed Dante's physical state. He was compact and seemed like a normal youth, lean and slightly muscular, but he could sense the horrifying power contained in that body that was ready to erupt at any time.

As for Dante, he just glanced at the three and noticed that they all likely had superpowers, or at least, some sort of special ability. However, his AI chip was a step ahead as it compiled an SDI and details based on hacked information as well as their own physical signs.

Dante was amused. The silvery black-haired woman was Luo Yue, a Chinese national who was born in America to immigrant parents. When she developed her powers, she was captured by the deep state forces and educated from a young age while her parents were very happy to sell her away for the benefits they got.

Her superpower was the ability to control moonlight in a way one would magical spells. She could heal, buff, debuff, trap, and even attack or defend. She was quite versatile and was rated as an S Rank Superhuman in the database.

According to the AI chip's estimation based on data gathered, her Superpower was of the D Rank in terms of talent and C rank in terms of potential in the Eternal Universe.

The second woman was an African migrant to Europe, specifically the Netherlands. She had fled from the war-torn country of Libya which had erupted into conflict again after the butchering by NATO early in the century.

She lived as a gangster and underworld member until her powers developed and then tried to expand. In her bid for expansion, her abilities were discovered and they cut her a deal. She joins them, her crimes get written off.

Her power was to turn parts of her body into light, or to adopt the nature of light. This granted her insane speed and dexterity, as well as the ability to offensively shoot searing hot light beams.

Their database rated it as S-class as well, but the Eternal universe graded it as a B-class talent with B-rank potential at best.

The final person, the man who happened to be the team leader of the mercenaries, was a typical ex-military man. His power awoke on the battlefield in the Middle East and he slaughtered an entire base of enemy troops with his bare hands.

He was one of the first superhumans recruited by the empowered deep state in their new batch of lackeys and had a high ranking in their organization.

His superpower was basically an all-around passive strength enhancement and impervious to bullets, knives, and the like. Super strength, high defense, crazy vitality, and regeneration basically.

His ability was rated S as well, but the system gave it the lowest F Rank talent with an F rank potential, it had no future.

There was a palpable silence as both sides wanted to see who would talk first, as it would affect the power balance between them. But no matter how much time they spent waiting, Dante only glanced at them casually.

In fact, his eyes seemed to be in a daze, as if he was not even focused on them.

Well, that was true, as Dante was currently playing Quantum Solitaire.

Killian stepped forth. "Sir, why did you attack my teammates so brutally?"

Dante paused his solitaire game and then focused on the man before him. He looked the fellow up and down then smiled.

"You have the nerve to ask? You should be thankful they're still alive, though they won't be for much longer, Mister Killian." Dante replied with a smile.

Killian's face darkened and Aisha stepped forward. "Humph, big talk from a pretty boy. You look like you could barely lift a flat tire much less go head to head with any of us. I advise you surrender and we'll spare you life!"

Dante speechlessly glanced at Aisha and shook his head. "I assumed you like wearing white because of your ability, but it's probably to make you feel clean in the face of the number of balls you licked to survive in the underworld back then."

Aisha's expression force and she paled immediately. "You motherfucker!"

She rushed forward to attack but was easily helped back by Killian. "Easy, he's trying to goad you into attacking. Lets not play his game."

Aisha harrumphed and pushed Killian away before moving back, but she glared at Dante with thick killing intent that showed how much she wanted to rip his head off. Killian sighed and shook his head at his teammate's short temper.

Meanwhile, Luo Yue had been silently watching. She calmly stepped forth and bowed to Dante respectfully.

"Dear sir, I see that you are poised and calm despite the situation, which tells me that you are not worried. How much do you know about us?" She asked while glancing at Killian.

Killian's expression changed greatly as he realized that Dante had mentioned his name earlier, but he - Killian - had never said anything about his identity!
