134: Chapter 134 The Otherworlders
"The information is still too scarce..." Chen Moxuan frowned.
At this analysis speed, even with triple overclocking, it would still take over ten days.
He glanced at the slightly weary-looking Song Xin and said in an earnest tone:
"Can you use your Special Ability one more time?"
If we use [Po Yuan] to analyze it again, perhaps we can obtain more information.
Although the information gained from directly dissecting a Special Ability isn't as much as dissecting the spiritual energy cluster contained within a Transcendent's Soul.
But it makes up for it by being able to produce it continuously.
Regarding Chen Moxuan's request, Song Xin gritted her teeth and said:
"Only one more time, okay."
She quickly condensed a phantom ball of light in her palm again.
At this moment, her cheeks had turned pale, and cold sweat was beading on her forehead.
Chen Moxuan once again turned his palm into a blade and, following the same method, sliced the ball of light in two.
Under the effect of [Po Yuan], this ball of light was once again dissected and stripped apart, feeding back the incomplete Special Ability Laws within to Chen Moxuan.
[Started analyzing Special Ability Otherworld Walker, estimated time: 20 days, 3 hours, 13 minutes]
"The time has been shortened by over five days." Seeing the information on the visualization panel in his mind, Chen Moxuan muttered.
Just as he had anticipated, using [Po Yuan] multiple times to dissect the same Law allows for obtaining more incomplete information.
With more information, the deduction speed of [All-Things Calculation] will also accelerate.
He shifted his gaze back to Song Xin.
Feeling Chen Moxuan's intense gaze, Song Xin shuddered violently and shook her head frantically:
"No way, no way! If I do it again, I'll really be drained dry!"
"Where did you think I was going with this? I'm not some kind of devil."
Chen Moxuan felt a bit helpless. He pointed at Song Xin's Clone, which was standing outside the barrier, watching the two of them as if viewing a show.
"I just wanted to ask you, what do you plan to do with this so-called physical Clone of yours?"
"I originally planned to have her go outside the city to bring reinforcements, but looking at the current situation..."
Song Xin followed his gesture, her expression slightly frozen.
"Doesn't this barrier keep those Transcendents out as well? We are actually safer inside the barrier, so there's no need for reinforcements."
As long as she didn't have to face pursuit by multiple Transcendents, she was completely fearless.
This was also the source of her confidence in revealing her true form after discovering that Wan Chaoren could not enter the barrier.
However, Chen Moxuan's next sentence caused her confidence to vanish completely.
"Based on the rules I learned from attacking the barrier just now, they are only temporarily unable to enter."
"It seems they can obtain the conditions to enter by consuming points through people who are inside the barrier."
"But the barrier's interception rules didn't mention exactly how to obtain points."
"Doesn't that mean that Wan Chaoren will still come?!" Song Xin's voice rose involuntarily.
And the moment her Clone heard this, it immediately used a concealment Spell to hide again.
Almost being killed by a laser from Wan Chaoren back then had left her with deep trauma.
"Then let's leave here quickly. What if they come back in a while?"
Song Xin suggested anxiously, "Let's go to the hotel where my original body was staying."
"I cast a perception-blocking Spell on the hotel owner, so we can stay in any empty room."
She paused, then added, "Of course, I secretly paid."
Chen Moxuan nodded upon hearing this; he needed to find a quiet place to use Meditation to accelerate the analysis speed.
In his eyes, Song Xin also needed to rest a bit so she could use her Special Ability for him to dissect again.
Song Xin immediately walked in front to lead the way, guiding Chen Moxuan to the hotel where she had previously stayed.
Little did she know what kind of mental torture awaited her in the coming time.
...
High above the firmament, a figure wrapped in a blood-patterned cape turned into a crimson streak of light, tearing through the sky at five times the speed of sound, leaving behind deafening sonic booms wherever it passed.
The special uniform snapped loudly under the intense wind pressure, and the exaggerated golden emblem on the chest twisted and deformed, refracting a distorted cold light.
This person was none other than Wan Chaoren.
Veins bulged on his forehead, his face was extremely gloomy, and he let out an angry low roar: "Damn ants! And of all things, an Other-Soul Being!"
A few minutes ago, the C-rank hero Insight Hero forced the videotape out of Rewinder's assistant.
After obtaining the videotape, Insight Hero decided to bypass the Branch President and contacted Wan Chaoren's assistant directly, passing the tape to Wan Chaoren through his assistant.
And after watching the videotape, Wan Chaoren nearly went berserk on the spot.
He could never have imagined that an ant he had casually slapped to death a few days ago had actually killed his brother.
It wasn't that he had deep feelings for his brother. Rather, he felt an unprecedented provocation.
Especially seeing that middle finger the ant had raised at his brother at the end, which reminded him of unpleasant memories.
However, as a Transcendent who had lived for hundreds of years, Wan Chaoren knew far more than Rewinder.
The tracking mark formed by the [Hand of Order] from the Superpower Association using a Special Ability could never be escaped by any Special Ability below S-rank.
To escape, one must either have an advantage in magnitude and performance, or not be the object specified by the rule.
The rules of the tracking mark were very similar to what the Madman Society had guessed:
"Once someone kills a Transcendent in any form, the tracking mark will lock onto the murderer surviving in this world and expose their location to all Transcendents in the current region until they die."
This mark locks onto the murderer's Soul; to escape, either the Soul must dissipate, or the Soul must not belong to this world at all.
Other-Soul Beings are people whose Souls do not belong to this world.
They come from outside any existing Otherworld. Some speculate that they might come from a world belonging to a higher dimension.
And the Superpower Association, in order to achieve a certain goal, has been searching for Other-Soul Beings to join the Superpower Association.
That [Hand of Order] established such a rule to make it easier to find Other-Soul Beings.
Once the Superpower Association discovered this Other-Soul Being, Wan Chaoren knew he would never have another chance to act.
By then, this ant might even be dancing on his head!
Thinking of this, he immediately and decisively activated the barrier's trigger device, locking down the entire C City.
Before more people knew about this, he had to go immediately and crush this ant to death.
This time, he would ensure it could never climb back up again!
Only he hadn't expected that Wan Chaoren would be sabotaged by his own people.
This barrier, which in previous years did not restrict Transcendents from entering, unexpectedly contained a restriction this time.
Soon, the G District Hero Association base was exposed to Wan Chaoren's view.
The moment he swooped down, the ground cracked from the sonic boom.
He immediately found the room of the personnel responsible for setting the rules this time, kicked the heavy alloy door to pieces, and roared: "Wang Puchuan! Get out here!"
