The man sitting across from Liu Xingluo studied her. He was the person in charge here. Without his help, there was absolutely no way to open that room’s door.
That was why Liu Xingluo had sought him out, hoping he could provide her with an Void Beast corpse for her enhancement.
“Yes. You should have already confirmed my abilities in the files. To defeat that Void Beast, I need the powers of other Evolved Beasts to fight.”
“Hmm… Unfortunately, I can’t open the door for you just yet. Please wait a little longer. I’ve already sent the request to open the door to my superiors. It should come down soon.”
He had already looked up information on Liu Xingluo’s ability in the internal database after she approached him and introduced herself. Just as she said, her ability was to extract the powers of other Evolved Beasts and use them to strengthen herself.
If it were possible, he would have opened the door and provided her with the Void Beast corpse. After all, that rampaging Void Beast outside had already killed quite a few Superhumans and caused considerable damage to the city. If they continued to let it rampage, it was only a matter of time before they were overrun.
But unfortunately, this wasn’t something he could decide on his own. Opening the door required consent from someone of a higher rank. If he opened it without authorization, the subsequent accountability would be very troublesome. He would have to write a bunch of reports to smooth things over.
“If only it really would come down that quickly.”
Liu Xingluo was somewhat worried. After all, the Sixth Princess was still causing chaos outside. In such a situation, the higher-ups might be up to their ears in work and wouldn’t have time to look at the permission request sent from here.
“Please wait a bit longer. It shouldn’t be too long.”
He said it lightly, but the man himself was also considering whether to ignore the regulations and open the door directly. After all, Article 39 of the regulations stated: “Under special circumstances, one may exercise their authority without obtaining permission from superiors.” And this situation was obviously a special case. But it wasn’t up to him. If the higher-ups didn’t think so, he would still be held accountable afterwards. So getting permission was naturally best. If there was no response within five minutes, he would no longer care about that. The most important thing now was to eliminate that Void Beast. If Liu Xingluo truly had the strength to defeat that Void Beast, then he would help her out.
As they waited, at the fourth minute, the superiors finally responded.
[Permission granted.]
“Good, looks like there’s no problem. Then please follow me. I’ll take you to open the door.”
With the superior’s permission, the man relaxed. He immediately stood up and led Liu Xingluo to the room where the Void Beast corpses were stored.
Swiping a card, entering a password, iris recognition. Passing through three security checkpoints, the large door that had once blocked Liu Xingluo finally opened, revealing the stored contents in front of them.
“Thank you.”
“No. It’s all just part of the job. Now, please proceed with what you need to do.”
“Mm.”
She extended her left hand toward the corpses. As her palm began to glow, the corpses also started to glow and flew toward the center of Liu Xingluo’s hand.
“Ugh…”
She could feel the power of the Evolved Beasts condensing into form in her hand. But since this was the first time extracting so many Evolved Beasts’ power at once, it took much longer than the previous time.
“Phew. Finally done. That took quite a bit of effort.”
Although it took some time, looking at the large handful of coins in her hand, it was worth it.
“Oh, so this is the power extracted from the Evolved Beasts?”
The man picked up a coin that had fallen to the ground and observed it closely. Even though he had just seen with his own eyes how she extracted and compressed the power, it was still incredible, this object.
“Yes, this is my ability. Well then, I should go out and fight her. Please inform the higher-ups to have the other Superhumans withdraw first. In my battle with that Void Beast, others won’t be able to help.”
Although she had considered fighting the Sixth Princess alongside other Superhumans, considering the Sixth Princess’s power, the others would basically be useless and would instead be put in danger.
Moreover, the Sixth Princess was likely causing destruction just to find her. The trouble she had caused, she had to clean up herself.
“Understood. After you go out, I’ll communicate with the higher-ups to have the other Superhumans evacuate to a safe place.”
“Mm. Thank you for your trouble. I’m off.”
After bidding farewell to the man, Liu Xingluo prepared to leave the base. But on her way out, she ran into Shen Yunfei. Judging by his appearance, this wasn’t a simple coincidence; he had been waiting for her here.
“You’re going out?”
“Yes, the preparations are complete. Now I’m going out to fight that Princess again, to properly return what I received from her last time. Brother Yunfei, were you waiting here for me? Is something the matter?”
“Something like that. It’s just, if you’re going out, could you make a detour to the hospital? I’m very worried about Youchu’s situation over there.”
Although the hospital had automatic defense devices to counter Void Beast attacks, considering the regenerative abilities of those snowmen from before, it was hard to say whether the hospital’s automatic defenses could effectively strike them. So Shen Yunfei hoped Liu Xingluo could go check on the situation at the hospital. If she could help protect the hospital and protect his sister, that would be even better.
“I understand. Don’t worry, because of how you looked after me last time, I’ll definitely help with this. You just wait for this incident to end and reunite with your sister.”
Making an OK gesture, Liu Xingluo accepted Shen Yunfei’s request. After all, it was just going to the hospital. For her current self, it wasn’t a troublesome matter. Moreover, she still owed Shen Yunfei a favor. She had no option but to help.
“I’m leaving it to you.”
Watching Liu Xingluo walk out of the base, Shen Yunfei’s heart was filled with frustration.
He had been a failure as a brother. In a situation like this, he couldn’t even protect his own sister and had to entrust it to someone else.
And all because he had no power, was just an ordinary person.
[If only I could have power, could awaken my own superpower…]
If he had power, he could protect his sister from the attacks of the Evolved Beasts, and the team leader wouldn’t have died.
