Chapter 201: 172, Gemini (Requesting Monthly Votes for the 10,000-Word Chapter)_4
After having asked for directions for so long, she finally arrived at the battlefield!
She didn't say much but suddenly sprinted towards the East.
In an instant, within the circumference of several dozen meters around her, the falling rain suddenly stopped!
The clear raindrops hovered in mid-air, neither rising nor falling, while Qing Chen turned around to survey her surroundings; it was as if someone had pressed the pause button on each droplet.
Gravity field.
A powerful gravity field!
Then, with a punch towards a certain spot in the rain, the suspended raindrops beside her were mysteriously arranged into two converging spirals.
In the blink of an eye,
At her fist's intended target, a person was punched out of the curtain of rain!
That Transcendent had been relying on their abilities, concealing themselves within the rain all along without anyone noticing him.
But Qing Chen was different; she was aware of every change in the surrounding gravity field, and even if she closed her eyes, she would still know where someone was and where they weren't!
With a thunderous sound, the Transcendent was punched into midair.
Just as he was about to fall back down, the Transcendent twisted his waist trying to stabilize himself.
But he suddenly realized that his falling speed had slowed down, as if a falling iron ball had suddenly transformed into a feather!
No, it wasn't that the iron ball had turned into a feather by itself, but rather the gravity field in the environment had changed!
"Up!" Qing Chen delivered an upward, ferocious uppercut to the Transcendent's abdomen.
The Transcendent's body curled up like a shrimp and suddenly soared dozens of meters into the air.
Just as he was about to reach the peak and start falling, that mysterious buoyancy vanished again!
The buoyancy, disappearing out of thin air, was like gravity appearing and vanishing without a trace, pulling at whim!
Everyone present watched this scene in astonishment, feeling as if the "fundamental forces" of the world were being tampered with by someone.
The Transcendent fell straight towards the ground, attempting to use the rainwater to break his fall—after all, even a C-Class Transcendent would die from such a height!
However, during his fall, the Transcendent distinctly felt that an invisible gravity field was contesting his control over the rainwater, rendering his usually effortless ability impotent.
With a loud crash, the Transcendent hit the ground hard and coughed up a mouthful of blood, his head lolling to the side, lifeless.
It wasn't until this moment that Qing Chen looked around and said, "Eh? Where did everyone go?"
She wanted to find Qing Chen's trace, but he had taken the opportunity during the fight between the Transcendents to escort Liu Dezhu away.
Qing Chen seemed a bit angry, "You left? How am I supposed to get home now? Really!"
By that time, Lu Yuan had also dealt with all the Assassins and hurried over to Qing Chen, "Uh, miss, who are you?"
Qing Chen tilted her head and thought for a moment before responding, "I'm one of Liu Dezhu's subordinates too!"
Having said that, Qing Chen flew into the sky, as abrupt as her arrival had been.
Lu Yuan looked up at her disappearance into the night sky, "???"
With just that one statement, Lu Yuan's mind was engulfed in turmoil!
Observing the girl's actions just moments ago, she had utterly overpowered the Transcendent, hanging him in the sky to pummel without the slightest chance of retaliation.
The difference between the two was as vast as that between clouds and mud, determined in a mere instant.
Based on Lu Yuan's estimation, that girl had to be at least B-Class!
To think that such a Transcendent was actually a subordinate of Liu Dezhu? What a joke!
What's this now, is it fashionable to become a subordinate of Liu Dezhu these days?!
Of course, Lu Yuan knew that Liu Dezhu wasn't the mastermind behind the scenes and that there was a Puppeteer supporting him, still hidden in the dark.
But prior to tonight, he always thought that the "group" with Liu Dezhu as a front-man was nothing more than a small group.
At most, it included Liu Dezhu, Qing Chen, and the person behind the scenes.
So, with only three people, it could at best be called a "group," nowhere near an organization.
It was fortunate that it was a relatively positive group, always doing good deeds; otherwise, it would only be called a gang.
However, now Lu Yuan felt that maybe they ought to reevaluate this "group."
After all, it wasn't just Qing Chen and Liu Dezhu anymore, but also included a Transcendent who was adept at killing with playing cards, along with the formidable girl in question!
There were two Transcendents in the group already!
And one of them was B-Class!
Moreover, the Puppeteer behind the scenes hadn't yet revealed themselves; who knows how strong that person is? They must be stronger than their subordinates at least.
If that Puppeteer was also B-Class, then the group would possess two B-Class superhumans!
Lu Yuan looked at Qing Chen suspiciously. Could this girl be the Puppeteer? Surely not.
The real Puppeteer was as cunning as a Ghost; even if you wanted to find them, you couldn't. This girl seemed rather simple, how could she be the Puppeteer?
"Could it be the one who uses playing cards?" Lu Yuan thought to himself about the Puppeteer's identity, guessing that the boss would have to speculate on this.
Unknowingly, with the contrast of two superhumans, Qing Chen, an Ordinary Person, seemed to lose much of his luster, appearing less eye-catching than before.
But the group itself suddenly became much more intriguing.
Actually, Qing Chen hadn't planned to take action in public, but watching Liu Dezhu's demeanor in secret, for some reason, he felt like lending a hand.
He didn't know about the sniper hidden in the dark. Even if he hadn't intervened, Kunlun would have dealt with those Assassins all the same.
Regardless, the evening was a success.
Using the Puppeteer technique, Qing Chen successfully shifted everyone's attention away from himself.
