"Last ten seconds."
"Stop the nonsense!" Yu Yong suddenly raised his head, the shadows under his black robe surged violently, "I’m not here to surrender, and don’t think you can sway my decision!"
Before he finished speaking, his body swelled up like inflating, transforming in an instant into a massive black shadow as large as a mountain, surrounded by countless twisting tendrils of darkness, resembling a giant beast crawling out of hell.
"This era is the best of tis and the worst of tis!"
The giant shadow spoke, its voice thundering like lightning, "Because we have found the key to biological evolution, not stupidly relying on technology, allowing ordinary people to wield destructive power!"
"That is the path of self-destruction, the main reason this planet has beco a wasteland!"
Boom.
A blinding lightning bolt tore through the night sky, illuminating the black mountain on the ground and the purple figure in the sky.
At almost the sa mont, they both moved.
The shadowy tendrils shot towards the sky like a torrential rain, bringing with them a chilling aura of devouring everything.
The purple figure, trailing a long tail of light, dived towards the core of the giant shadow.
Whoosh.
A bizarre scene unfolded.
The tendrils, which seed fierce, curled up and charred as if scorched by invisible flas once they approached within half a ter of the purple figure, ultimately turning to ash in the rain.
Despite whipping or lashing, none of the attacks could even touch Yu Erlan’s battle armor.
"So strong, so strong!"
Yu Yong’s roar carried a pathological frenzy, "This is the power I desire, this is it!"
As he spoke, facing Yu Erlan who was swooping down, he surprisingly abandoned all resistance, spreading his shadow-covered arms as if welcoming so kind of blessing:
"Co, kill ! Let feel the end of this power!"
"One day, I will possess it, and I will co to kill you with it, to make you taste despair!"
"Hahahaha..."
He roared madly, seemingly already envisioning those scenes in his mind.
However, the next second, the frenzy on his face suddenly froze.
The ground beneath his feet had unknowingly cracked into spider-web-like lines, with lines of purple-gold energy pillars bursting out, instantly weaving into a huge cage with the sheen of flowing runes that suddenly clamped down.
With a "clang," all the black tendrils were locked inside, unable to move.
"What?"
The expression on Yu Yong’s face changed dramatically, he could clearly feel the ntal connection between him and those 250,000 infected individuals being completely severed as if cut by a sharp blade.
This cage not only sealed his physical body but also acted like an energy barrier, completely suppressing his ability within a small space.
"What is this damn thing?!"
He frantically hamred the walls of the cage, the shadowy tendrils colliding with the energy pillars, and dissolving into black smoke just like when approaching Yu Erlan.
"Sorry, I never converse with rubbish, unless... I intend to kill him."
Yu Erlan landed on the ground, the boots of her light purple battle armor stepping on the wet mud, splashing tiny droplets.
With a slight clasp of her palm, the purple-gold cage began to shrink like a living thing.
In the blink of an eye, it shrank from the size of a mountain to the size of a palm.
anwhile, Yu Yong inside the cage rapidly shrank as well, gradually losing his humanoid form, finally turning into a fist-sized black spider, with his terrified, distorted face reflected on the back of its carapace.
"Moreover, you were wrong."
Yu Erlan’s voice ca through her helt, carrying a hint of barely noticeable mockery, "I have already entered the third phase, and it’s... Extraordinary Control State."
She rarely curled her lips into a slight smile, using her left index finger and thumb to pinch the miniature cage.
The transparent helt popped open, revealing her face with intellectual beauty, but in the next second, she coughed violently, her complexion turning ashen like a fish suddenly deprived of oxygen.
Pressing down on her earpiece with her right hand, she paused a mont before a hurried response ca through:
"Director Yu!"
"Codena ’C35’ has been successfully captured, infection link cut, proceed with Area A cleanup imdiately."
"Understood." The voice on the other side of the earpiece was decisive.
The black spider within the cage struggled violently, Yu Yong’s voice ca through the carapace, shifting from shock to disbelief, ending in hysterical madness:
"You’re crazy, you’re actually using , using my power to expel the infection sources from those refugees, you’re... playing with fire!"
"Aren’t you afraid of ... detonating it prematurely?"
He ranted incoherently, evidently never expecting soone to be so bold as to use his power in reverse as a purification tool.
Because only a mother source has such ability, the capacity to let power expand unrestrained.
While an extraordinary being is ant to constrain oneself, the tighter the restraint, the greater the power obtained.
"Is that so?"
Yu Erlan re-closed her helt, isolating the raindrops and air outside, took two deep breaths, and her face regained so color.
Holding the cage up to her eyes, she revealed a rare hint of interest:
"For a little insect like you to actually understand what it ans to be used~"
"Alright, I have to admit, your ability is indeed impressive, and you’ve retained considerable thinking capacity."
"Worth a... period of study for !"
