Full speed ahead!
Realizing that he was surrounded, Xia Fan's first reaction was not to run, but to charge forward!
The corners of the bald man's mouth curled up into a smile.
In an instant, the three hunting falcons in the sky sped up as well. They fell from the sky with great force. The Mind Control Falcons were not afraid of being smashed to pieces. Their only goal was to snipe Xia Fan!
The cheetah, which had been eyeing Xia Fan like a tiger, also rushed toward him with its jaws wide open.
Not good!
Chu Yan, who was far behind Xia Fan, screamed in her mind. The beast-type superpower had a powerful trait. It could activate the potential of a beast.
Take the spotted cheetah for example. Even if it ran at full speed, it would not be able to keep up with Xia Fan's speed. But the beast-type superpower allowed it to activate Life Exchange. In a short period of time, its speed and combat power far exceeded its limits.
Forcibly activating the beast's potential would put pressure on the beast's bones and internal organs, causing immeasurable damage. Basically, once Life Exchange was activated, the beast would die within minutes due to the exhaustion of its life force.
Although Life Exchange was cruel, it could increase one's combat power by several times. That was exactly what Xia Fan was facing. Although he was a rare speed type superpower user, Xia Fan did not seem to have any advantage against Xia Fan, who was traveling at a speed of 550 kilometers per hour. Four ferocious beasts were closing in on him. The spotted cheetah bared its fangs and the hunting falcon brandished its hook-like claws.
"Go to hell!" The bald man roared in his mind.
He did not care about the life or death of these beasts. Even if these beasts died, he would just have to control a few more. After all, this was a nature reserve, and there were many beasts living in the area. The baldy had already found a few good targets.
Suddenly …
Xia Fan was surrounded by the beasts from all directions. He was sure to be fatally attacked in the next moment.
Right at this moment, a sudden change occurred!
Xia Fan, who was running at full speed, suddenly curled his tongue and emitted a high-frequency sound wave that was inaudible to humans!
The bald man did not expect the young Xia Fan to be a beast-tamer!
Although Xia Fan was not an Innate Type Beast Tamer, and his Sound Wave Beast Manipulation was slightly weaker than Innate Type Beast Manipulation, Xia Fan's sudden burst of high-frequency sound waves still caused great trouble for the beasts.
It was as if the four beasts had received two completely different voices at the same time. One voice was slightly stronger, while the other was slightly weaker. The intelligence of beasts was far inferior to that of humans. The two voices sounded at the same time, causing them to be stunned for a moment.
However, for a speed-type superpower user, a split second was more than enough!
Suddenly, Xia Fan's body began to tilt at an incredible speed. He accelerated diagonally!
It was common knowledge that it was extremely difficult to overcome the limits of physics when moving at high speeds.
But Xia Fan was from the Heavenly Winged Clan!
Although he had never received a single day of instruction from his father, in his bones flowed the blood of the Demon Sealing Blade!
The so-called extremely difficult diagonal acceleration was simply his talent!
Xia Fan didn't need anyone to teach him. He knew it from the moment he was born.
Crack ~
The diagonal acceleration allowed Xia Fan to escape from the encirclement. He also took the opportunity to stab the spotted cheetah!
The thin blade came from the unnamed lancet that the doctor had given Xia Fan. Not only was it sharp, but it was also very stealthy and sinister!
The blade sliced the spotted cheetah's throat. The beast did not react at all. Its head was separated from its body without a single drop of blood. It was enough to show how sharp the lancet was.
After all, he was a top assassin in the Cangyue Universe. The doctor's knife was not used to perform surgery, but to slit the enemy's throat!
The next second, Xia Fan appeared on the left side of the bald man like a ghost. He was like a cannonball that could turn, crashing into him!
The bald man had thought that victory was in his grasp. But now, his eyes were wide open, his mouth was wide open, and his heart stopped beating.
Speed-type superpowers were natural-born killers!
Once a speed-type superpower user was forced to his side, he could imagine what would happen to him in close combat.
Extraordinary speed would not give his opponent any chance!
Speed-type superpowers were too domineering. In a second, Xia Fan could stab the bald man dozens of times! It would be hard not to die!
"Ah!"
At the last moment, the bald man let out a roar of despair. He did not dodge. Instead, he opened his arms and threw himself at Xia Fan, ready to fight to the death!
* Whoosh whoosh! *
From the corner of Xia Fan's eye, he saw two small snakes emerge from his sleeves. One of them was a three-inch skull with a pattern of white lines on its head. It was as scary as a skull.
The other was a venomous golden-striped snake. There was a golden line on its abdomen, which was its venom sac. Once the golden liquid entered the bloodstream, not even the gods could save it!
Six. This guy had released six beasts. He was already at the advanced Star Base level, while Xia Fan was only one step away from the beginner Star Base level. The difference between them was huge!
Moreover, the bald man was braver than Xia Fan had imagined. Seeing Xia Fan approaching, he dared to fight.
If Xia Fan stabbed him with his lancet, the bald man would die. But if Xia Fan was bitten by the two venomous snakes, Xia Fan would die as well.
This was mutual destruction!
A true assassin would never be caught. If they really couldn't escape, they would immediately bite the poisonous cyanide hidden in the gaps between their teeth to preserve their last bit of dignity. This bald assassin obviously made the same decision.
Danger was imminent. The sharp teeth of the venomous snakes were only ten centimeters away from Xia Fan's shoulders!
At this critical moment, Xia Fan's arms suddenly expanded!
His two arms moved forward, and he pushed forward fiercely!
One, two, three!
More than ten silver lights shot out like bullets!
At the last moment, Xia Fan threw out the entire set of scalpels the doctor had given him as a freelance surgeon!
Xia Fan's speed was already at its peak. With the explosive power of his arms, he pushed the scalpels forward like an explosion! It was as if he had released a silver laser!
In the air, thousands of pear blossoms bloomed. With two flashes of silver light, the two venomous snakes were split in half. With another flash of silver light, it struck the bald-headed superhuman and pierced into his body like tofu!
Pfft!
.....
Chu Yan's face was pale and she was panting. But she had finally caught up with Xia Fan.
Looking up, Chu Yan saw the bald man lying on the ground. His body and head were pierced with more than ten scalpels. He was dead.
Xia Fan's actions shocked Chu Yan. He dug a hole and buried the dead cheetah and the two venomous snakes. Then he covered it with a layer of soil and stuck a wooden stick in it, making it look like a graveyard.
Xia Fan stood up, put his palms together, closed his eyes, and muttered a few words.
"What are you doing?" Chu Yan asked.
"I'm paying my respects. They died a pitiful death." Xia Fan smiled at Chu Yan.
"Paying respects to the beasts?" Chu Yan's eyes widened.
Xia Fan nodded seriously. "Of course. They were innocent. They only attacked me because they were controlled."
"These beasts are like the bald man's weapons. Weapons don't kill people, but people kill people."
Chu Yan gulped. Not only did Xia Fan have a strange background, but his way of thinking was also strange.
Weapons don't kill people, but people kill people …
"If that's the case, could he be a philosopher?" Chu Yan thought to herself.
Looking at Xia Fan's youthful and radiant smile, Chu Yan swore that she had never seen or even heard of such a strange fellow like him.
Xia Fan told Chu Yan what happened during the battle. Chu Yan understood why Xia Fan killed the bald man. After all, Xia Fan had no choice but to do so in such a dangerous situation. If it were her, she would have ended up in a worse situation. At least Xia Fan managed to keep his life.
It took a while for the police to arrive, followed by Chu Yan's partner, Special Task Force investigator Qin Zimo. He was a cold middle-aged man with high cheekbones who never smiled.
The killer's body was sent to the Special Task Force's laboratory. They would conduct an autopsy to confirm his identity and find out who hired him.
"I'm sorry, but I still can't let you go. All the people with superpowers in the Nebula Alliance have to be registered. That's the rule of the alliance," Chu Yan said to Xia Fan. "After all, the crimes committed by superpowers are getting worse.
"Relying on their special privileges and powerful combat power, many people with superpowers do whatever they want, oppressing and killing those poor ordinary people. This trend must be stopped. Registering all people with superpowers is to control the need for crime control."
Even so, Chu Yan's attitude toward Xia Fan had changed a lot. She admired Xia Fan, and at the same time, she felt that the smiling man was gentle and easy to get along with.
"Well, it seems that I have no choice." Xia Fan smiled and shrugged.
.....
In the director's office.
After returning, Chu Yan reported everything that had happened to Jerry, the director of the bureau.
The fat old man, who had a sweet tooth, kept making sounds of surprise as he listened to Chu Yan's report. He even munched on a Good Time chocolate bar.
After listening to Chu Yan's report, the fat old man smiled happily. "Chu Yan, you've been here for three years, and this is the first time I've heard you praise someone so much."
Chu Yan said seriously, "Director, I'm telling the truth. I'm not exaggerating. Xia Fan is really a good person. He built a cemetery for the dead animals, gave food to the mice in the hospital, and even praised them. It's obvious that he's a kind person."
"So, director, I think that even if Xia Fan's background is unknown, he won't be a threat to the alliance. Can you let him go and not send him to the concentration camp?"
In recent years, the crimes committed by superpowers had caused great harm to society. The entire alliance was wary of people with superpowers like Xia Fan, who had an unknown background, and had set up some concentration camps.
According to normal procedures, Xia Fan was bound to be sent to the concentration camp and undergo strict inspection and education. He would only be released after it was confirmed that he was not a threat to society.
This process could be as short as a year or two, or as long as eight to ten years. Xia Fan was still so young, and he was in the prime of his life. Sending him to the concentration camp to waste his precious time was something that Chu Yan was unwilling to do.
Sigh …
Jerry sighed and said awkwardly, "I don't have that right."
"Actually, the more troublesome thing is not whether to send Xia Fan to the concentration camp, but the dead supervisor, Luo Teng."
"I just found out that Luo Teng was a member of the Luo family. The Luo family is now on their way to Britania. They'll be there soon."
Chu Yan was stunned. "The Luo family? Which Luo family? "
Jerry spread his arms. "Which Luo family could it be? Members of the Generation Alliance, the Inferno Arhat family. I was wondering why the headquarters would put so much pressure on me to solve the case immediately. "
Phew …
Chu Yan sucked in a breath of cold air and her expression changed drastically. "So it's their family. This is going to be troublesome."
