Qu Jianlei did not dare to look directly at Steve, but the movent of the other’s wrist lifting was indeed noticeable.
With just the corner of his eye, he could sense that the other... seed to be making a call?
His heart sank slightly: Damn, he’s going to be exposed!
The four A-level wristwatches were all tucked in his pocket!
Although he turned off the GPS and set the vibration to the lowest, there was still so vibration—otherwise, he wouldn’t have noticed the communication.
But now he’s less than two hundred ters away from the Supre...
If the Supre wanted to, sensing this bit of vibration wouldn’t be much; they might even sense the changes in electromagnetic waves!
Then, he must take action, unless the person the other is calling isn’t one of these four.
However, it’s not even dawn yet, could the other be calling soone else? Qu Jianlei definitely wouldn’t bet on such a low-probability event!
So he turned his head to face the other, with a peculiar light in his eyes—Enchanting Heart!
This was one of the Techniques Granny Jia gave him recently, under the Spiritual Attribute, but it’s a technique, not a Cultivation Technique.
In essence, Enchanting Heart belongs to Illusion Technique, but when cultivated to a very high Realm, it can hypnotize or even alter mories!
Qu Jianlei was far from reaching the latter two stages, he had only just grasped a little of its essence.
But even just a little knowledge, with preparation against an unprepared mind, could affect the opponent for a mont.
Nevertheless, for Qu Jianlei, Enchanting Heart was an optional addition; he used this technique just to disguise his direct gaze!
But to Steve, those eyes gave him an indescribable shock, "Is it... the Military?"
As an extrely cautious Supre, similar to soone with poor security feelings, he was very sensitive to anomalous phenona.
An empty place suddenly appearing with a pair of eyes was already frightening enough.
What was more frightening was that he instantly distinguished that the other was using a Spiritual Technique!
After all, having been a Supre for many years, if he hadn’t dabbled in Spiritual Techniques, that would be underestimating him too much.
In fact, most Supres would also try to master so Spiritual Techniques—because they are truly practical.
However, Steve was not generally sensitive, and his mind was also extrely agile.
The mont he recognized the Spiritual Technique, his mind automatically jumped—an Awakened with Spiritual Attribute, is this the Military?
He really couldn’t have dreamt that the one coming to deal with him was actually the Military... What did I do to provoke you?
For any force, the Military is a behemoth that cannot be easily touched, not to ntion he was just a Supre!
Yet, although Steve was cautious, just as Qu Jianlei analyzed, once this person decides to make a move, he would be ruthless and decisive!
What about the Military! This was the third thought that ca to Steve next: No one can determine my fate!
In the blink of an eye, he had three thoughts flashed through his mind.
The fourth thought didn’t even need to be born, counterattack was right—who dares to ss with , I ss with them!
As for other considerations, Steve couldn’t care less: pass this hurdle first before discussing anything else.
In an instant, he was about to mobilize the water vapor in the air to counterattack—the fastest way to retaliate with this thod!
As for the power being slightly smaller, that was irrelevant, the other was rely a B-level!
His thought processes were truly erratic, and his intuition frightening; in fact, up to now, he hadn’t had the chance to judge the other’s Cultivation Level.
Of course, if there was a bit more ti, he could completely sort out the logic within.
—If the other was a Spiritual Attribute Supre, honestly... he’s not even worthy for such an existence to make a move.
—If it were a Supre of another Attribute skilled in Spiritual Techniques, would it really be worth the trouble to ambush? They’d just strike directly!
Anyway, Steve concluded the other was B-level, which could also be said to be a combat intuition.
In any case, his reaction was to mobilize water vapor and attack the opponent in one wave first.
The attack’s effect wasn’t important; what was important was regaining the initiative, turning defense into attack, and capturing the opponent in the shortest possible ti.
Because he strongly suspected that there wasn’t only one person ambushing him, what B-level would dare if not insane...
Yet, before he could think more, and before he could launch his attack, his head was suddenly jolted.
It was as if soone had swung a heavy hamr weighing hundreds of pounds at his head.
Wrong, maybe not just hundreds of pounds, after advancing to Supre, objects weighing hundreds of pounds basically couldn’t affect him.
Perhaps it was like being an A-level, hit with a hamr weighing a few hundred pounds?
However, being A-level was ancient history, he couldn’t even rember how weak he was back then.
Anyway, he was the first to react, "Spiritual attack... how dare he?"
Yet to Qu Jianlei, this kind of attack really had nothing to do with daring, because he had no other choice!
He was only B-level, even if Attributeless, the only techniques that could harm the Supre were Spiritual and Electromagnetic Techniques.
He didn’t plan on using Electromagnetic Techniques, because the other was here for Black Heaven, they couldn’t be unguarded against electromagnetics.
So the only choice was a Spiritual Attack, even if he had to gamble that the other’s Spiritual Attribute wouldn’t be stronger than his own.
However, regarding this point, he still had a certain level of confidence.
This wasn’t blind arrogance; aside from believing in his own ntal strength, Granny Jia also gave him so confidence.
The old lady hadn’t made any specific comnts, but when she heard he wanted to find Steve, she didn’t explicitly voice any opposition.
Qu Jianlei pondered over the old lady’s attitude—perhaps the elder figured I might summon a Supre as a helper?
But what if... I don’t have such a helper?
In other words, the old lady believed that under certain circumstances, I could take down a Supre.
In fact, under planned circumstances, killing an enemy above one’s level isn’t that difficult to achieve.
Qu Jianlei particularly rembered that after he advanced to A-level, there was a B-level who once tried to sche against him.
He couldn’t even rember that guy’s na anymore, but who gave you the guts to attack a notoriously tough A-level?
The root of it all is nothing more than those precedents of defeating enemies above one’s level, and although there aren’t many examples, they’re enough to trigger so greed!
The mont Qu Jianlei used Enchanting Heart, he launched a spiritual attack, and it was a full-strength blow.
Fortunately, the opponent’s spirit showed so obvious fluctuations, greatly increasing the success rate of the attack.
In fact, the reason Steve showed such an obvious flaw was because he was frightened by the "military" association.
And the ensuing brainstorm in his mind also caused so anomalies in his spiritual fluctuations.
If not for these variables, Qu Jianlei might not have... Well, the matter has already happened, and so assumptions are unnecessary.
Qu Jianlei chose the timing well, but imdiately afterwards, his mind jolted violently, and his eyes went temporarily blind.
But the blindness didn’t affect his Finger Technique, and when he regained a bit of vision, he sent more than ten golden spears towards the figure.
It was still a full-power strike. The opponent’s Water Attribute should have been fragile, but after all, the two were a whole realm apart.
When Qu Jianlei’s vision slowly recovered, he saw that the Supre on the opposite side had already been hit by three golden spears.
The golden spears didn’t pierce very deeply, but the opponent’s blood spattered, staining their clothes red.
More interestingly, blood flowed from the figure’s seven orifices, clearly not an effect caused by the golden spears.
"Haha," Qu Jianlei chuckled softly, launching another spiritual attack.
At the sa ti, his body flickered eerily, rushing towards the front-side.
This was indeed to close the attack distance and also to guard against possible counterattacks from the opponent.
Steve was really having a hard ti now; a single ntal attack made him dizzy, almost causing him to fall to the ground.
Just being able to stand was already quite difficult.
However, on this point, his response was a bit arrogant, not matching his cautious nature—so what if he fell down?
After all, this was still the pride of an Imperial Superpower Warrior—why fall if you can stand?
Steve could let go of airs, but as a Supre, how could he allow an A-level to knock him down?
Thus the tragedy unfolded, and the three golden spears unsurprisingly embedded themselves in his body.
If he had been willing to fall to the ground to evade, he might have dodged all the golden spears.
If it were Qu Jianlei, he definitely wouldn’t consider his image—during life and death struggles, face doesn’t matter, survival is paramount.
But Steve was still old-fashioned; no matter how cautious he was, his thinking was still influenced by Imperial Civilization.
Yet at this mont, he didn’t have ti to consider the three golden spears, not just because he was also temporarily blinded.
In the dizziness, he had only one thought, "His spiritual power... is actually stronger than mine?"
For a Spiritual Attribute warrior, having stronger spiritual power is normal, but after he advanced to Supre, he also worked on enhancing his spiritual power!
He was a whole realm above the opponent, and actively working on improving his weakness, yet... was sowhat weaker?
Imdiately, his strong logical thinking led to another issue—there might be a second spiritual attack!
This thought was absolutely correct; Qu Jianlei was indeed planning just that.
However, although Steve thought of this possibility, very unfortunately, he was unable to make any response.
Spiritual attacks are not only very fast and hard to defend against, but the relevant armors are also extrely rare.
There aren’t many materials that can resist spiritual power, and those that do work need to be thick enough.
Who’s crazy enough to carry heavy spiritual power armor around with them?
In this regard, Spiritual Technique and Electromagnetic Technique are sowhat similar; when faced directly, you must be prepared with armor in advance.
Steve was lucky; he carried a small portable armor that could resist spiritual attacks, which was really rare.
But he was also unfortunate, because amidst intense headache, blindness, and uncoordinated limbs, he didn’t even have the chance to take out the armor!
Compared to the received spiritual attack, the three golden spears in his body were negligible injuries.
Just as he was shifting his body, trying to evade the spiritual attack, the second spiritual attack arrived.
