Chapter 944: Mind
No one could have imagined Zhang Yi's insane plan.
Nor could anyone match his combination of sufficient strength and boldness to execute such a thing.
Because hunting squad leaders held no aning for ordinary Delta-level superhumans.
They couldn't achieve breakthroughs by absorbing squad leader essences.
In a certain sense, Zhang Yi was a wild Epsilon.
If he had chosen, like Xuanwu and other squad leaders, to pledge allegiance to regional higher-ups and serve them loyally,
Then he too would have received the region's full, unreserved cultivation.
Not to ntion becoming Epsilon—it might even have been possible for his superhuman ability index to surpass both Cadillus and Xuanwu.
But he didn't do that, because he was Zhang Yi, unwilling to let anyone restrain him.
So the power he sought could only be obtained through his own thods.
Zhang Yi's plan was extrely simple.
The area covered by Mist Valley spanned approximately twenty thousand square kiloters, roughly three tis the size of Tianhai City.
Without satellite navigation and unable to use compasses, even superhumans would beco blind.
Except for the very few superhumans with special abilities, they had to rely on scouts for reconnaissance or spend considerable ti groping around to locate Mist Valley.
And then determine the correct underground entrance to the Divine Source within Mist Valley.
This process would require at least a week or more.
And this period was enough for Zhang Yi to conduct his hunt.
With Hua Hua and Lele, he essentially gained two extra pairs of eyes—two pairs far superior to human eyes.
Over ten minutes later, Lele suddenly perked up its ears.
It said to Zhang Yi, "Boss, soone's coming from that direction! Should be... thirteen people."
Zhang Yi nodded, his gaze piercing through the one-way glass window to look outside.
Thick toxic miasma enveloped everything around them, limiting visibility to less than ten ters.
He slowly closed his eyes, then abruptly opened them.
A flash of white light briefly appeared in his pupils.
The next instant, an invisible ripple spread out from him in all directions.
Within a three-kiloter radius centered on him, all spatial fluctuations were precisely and accurately presented in his mind.
[Mind Domain].
A newly comprehended ability of Zhang Yi's.
As a top-tier spatial ability user, he had always been extrely sensitive to spatial fluctuations.
After returning from the sea, his power had greatly increased, and his perception of spatial fluctuations had dramatically enhanced.
This also allowed him to master a more powerful reconnaissance skill.
Although it was a newly comprehended ability, in this toxic miasma-filled Golden Phoenix City, any object's movent would cause fluctuations in the toxic gas flow, thereby helping Zhang Yi capture their positions.
Soon, Zhang Yi located "their" positions.
He didn't even need to use his eyes to see; he knew exactly where they were.
Zhang Yi placed his hand on Thunderbolt's trigger and began aiming.
[Mind Domain] searched for enemies and confird positions.
[Precision Shooting] locked onto targets.
anwhile, the joint forces that had landed on the other side of Star Island had split into multiple teams and begun operations.
The first to arrive in Golden Phoenix City were the superhuman team from New Rohan.
As a small peninsula nation, New Rohan had originally been weak and insignificant after the apocalypse.
But due to the presence of Columbus Ocean garrison troops on their island, they managed to preserve their national integrity.
Therefore, when Douglas issued the order for this operation, they excitedly sent their country's top superhumans to the battlefield to demonstrate loyalty.
In Golden Phoenix City, appearing from this direction were New Rohan's Hwarang Master Choi Yong-ho, with a superhuman ability index of 7600 points;
And the so-called [Spider Martial God] Taekwondo Master, possessing an impressive 8000-point superhuman ability index.
They led their disciples and scouts, slowly advancing through the toxic miasma.
"Master Cha, the direction we've chosen is very safe, farthest from Mist Valley's location. Presumably Huaxu Kingdom's superhumans won't co through here."
Choi Yong-ho smiled as he spoke to Cha Haesik beside him.
Upon hearing this, Cha Haesik snorted disdainfully.
"What's there to fear from re Huaxu Kingdom superhumans? If I encounter them, I'll definitely make them taste the power of my Taekwondo Heaven Destruction Style!"
Choi Yong-ho nodded with a smile upon hearing this.
"Indeed, my Hwarang kicking techniques aren't to be trifled with either."
Beside the two "Masters" followed their disciples and the scouts dispatched by New Rohan.
Because their overall strength was relatively weak, Columbus Ocean hadn't placed them in important battle zones.
But they couldn't resist the New Rohan people's excessive enthusiasm, who begged and pleaded to co help.
So they were allowed to land first at Golden Phoenix City, serving as advance troops to scout the island's situation.
Several scouts cautiously advanced ahead. Since compasses couldn't be used here, determining direction and locating Mist Valley required relying on primitive yet professional thods.
Such as following terrain features or referencing local landmark structures.
One scout examined the map on his helt display, looking left and right until he quickly located that relatively iconic high-rise building of Golden Phoenix City.
He pointed in that direction, just about to say sothing.
But suddenly, a sharp whistling sound tore through the air.
"Thump!"
Blood sprayed everywhere as the scout's two legs remained standing on the ground while his entire upper body was completely shattered into dust!
The two mutually flattering "Masters" and their disciples instantly changed expressions.
"Unexpected enemies here! Alert, go on alert imdiately!"
Cha Haesik growled in a low voice, "Don't panic, find the hidden enemy!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his body underwent drastic changes.
His fra began to expand, his skin turning an eerie black while developing nurous hard, faintly glowing hairs.
"Rip!"
His dobok tore apart directly, revealing his terrifying form.
It was a massive black spider over three ters tall and five ters long, with eight thick arms.
His head was densely covered with compound eyes providing 360-degree vision without any blind spots!
Zhang Yi silently reloaded.
Within his Mind Domain, he could sense all moving "humanoid forms."
However, he couldn't assess their strength levels, much less clearly see their appearances.
But none of that mattered.
They all had to die anyway, so who ca first or later wasn't particularly important.
"Bang!"
Another shot rang out, directly piercing through three kiloters of distance to kill another person!
This ti it was one of Cha Haesik's disciples who died.
After Thunderbolt's modifications, it could perfectly integrate with Zhang Yi's abilities.
He could use spatial power to neutralize the sniper rifle's powerful recoil and absorb the gunshot's explosive sound.
Therefore, the enemy couldn't determine his position from the gunshot, only hearing the bullet's sharp whistle as it tore through the air.
