Chapter 67: Bestowal
Sun Sheng suddenly turned around and ran, leaving He Dong somewhat unprepared. With Sun Sheng's irrational and crazy behavior, He Dong thought that his opponent would definitely fight him to the death. However, he could not have imagined that even in this situation, Sun Sheng still had a timid and cowardly personality.
"Run? I'll see where you run to! Binding technique!" He Dong pointed directly at Sun Sheng, and in an instant, a green light flashed by, and then Sun Sheng was bound by a thick vine and couldn't move.
"Plant-based Esper? Are you a dual-system Esper?" Sun Sheng looked at He Dong with even more astonishment.
"Are you ambidextrous? Then take a look at this... Water Arrow Technique!" He Dong said, immediately condensing an extremely small water arrow and shooting it rapidly towards Sun Sheng.
He Dong still had many doubts in his mind that had not been answered, so he didn't want Sun Sheng to die for the time being. The arrow shot directly at Sun Sheng's leg.
"Ah! Water magic!" The intense pain and He Dong's water magic made Sun Sheng's eyes full of fear.
Sun Sheng became an Esper for a short time, but was unexpectedly absorbed by a mysterious organization consisting entirely of Espers. There, he learned a lot about the information of Espers. He knew that although Espers were rare, double-system Espers were even more rare, and triple-system ones were even less so. Currently, he only knows that the president of this mysterious organization is a triple-system Esper.
Of course, whether a person's strength is strong or not does not depend solely on the number of heterodox abilities they possess. The main thing is to look at this person's understanding and control of their heterodox ability, as well as the power of the heterodox ability itself. However, having more heterodox abilities means having more ways to attack, so people like that have a higher starting point than ordinary people and are more likely to become strong.
He Dong's monstrous behavior shattered Sun Sheng's last bit of sanity, and he knew that fighting back was futile, running away was impossible, and with the grudge between him and He Dong, He Dong would never let him off. Suddenly, a resolute glint appeared in his eyes.
"Die! Die together!" Sun Sheng growled with a ferocious face.
"Huh? What's this?" Sun Sheng's expression didn't catch He Dong's attention, but suddenly he discovered that the fire-element magic on Sun Sheng's body was fluctuating violently and showed a trend of becoming more and more brutal.
"He Dong, this is what you've forced me to do! This is what you've forced me to do! Let's die together! Self-destruct!" Sun Shengxi shouted hysterically at He Dong.
"Ah!" As a qualified killer, tracking skills are a required course, so although He Dong's speed was extremely fast, Zhao Xinxin still followed him all the way here. However, as soon as she arrived, she suddenly saw He Dong facing someone, and that person suddenly inflated like a balloon, with blood flowing from their airholes and a ferocious expression on their face, looking extremely terrifying. This couldn't help but make Zhao Xinxin let out a startled cry.
"Xin Xin, how did you come here!" Zhao Xin Xin's sudden cry instantly changed He Dong's complexion, and Sun Sheng's strange change also made him feel a kind of fear from the bottom of his heart.
"He...he...!" Zhao Xinxin pointed at Sun Sheng who was still rapidly expanding, and was shocked speechless.
"Damn it!" He Dong suddenly discovered that within these few seconds, the fire-element magic aura on Sun Sheng's body was becoming increasingly chaotic and violent. He hastily pulled Zhao Xinxin behind him and shouted in a low voice, "Super Defense, Fire Shield Technique, Fire Shield Technique, Water Wall Technique, Water Wall Technique..."
He Dong had just hastily set up several water walls in front of himself, and Sun Sheng's body finally inflated to the extreme point. Then a loud noise was heard, and Sun Sheng exploded directly.
This was He Dong's first experience of the power of an explosion, and it was one caused by a superpower user's self-destruction. At this moment, he felt like a small boat in a stormy sea, with wave after wave of water crashing against him, each one breaking through the previous one. With each broken wave, he suffered some injuries, and when all the waves had dissipated, He Dong couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
The water wall was broken, but He Dong didn't expect the self-explosion of Sun Sheng to be so powerful that it actually blew up an entire rotten building, and He Dong, who was on the fourth floor, truly experienced what it meant by "the sky collapsing and the earth cracking", and then instantly buried under the rubble of the collapsed building.
The abandoned building was located in a relatively remote suburb, surrounded by large tracts of wasteland. Although Sun Sheng's self-explosion made a loud noise, it didn't attract anyone, so after more than ten minutes, the place immediately returned to its former tranquility, only now the former abandoned building had become a pile of ruins.
And right under this rubble, He Dong held up his hands and propped up a huge floor slab to form a narrow but safe space. Zhao Xinxin was curled up in this space, looking at He Dong with tears all over her face.
"Cough, cough!" He Dong used his incredible strength to hold up the floorboard and prevent it from falling, but Sun Sheng's self-explosion still caused him significant harm. At this moment, blood was constantly flowing from the corner of his mouth, and his face had turned somewhat pale.
Actually, with He Dong's abilities and defense, this degree of self-explosion would at most only cause him minor injuries. Moreover, with his immense power, it wouldn't be difficult for him to rush out of the ruins. However, he still needs to protect Zhao Xinxin, and since this is his first time experiencing something like this, he was unprepared. Additionally, before this happened, he had already consumed most of his magic to save Zhao Xinxin, so under the sudden attack, his injuries were a bit more severe.
"Master, it's all my fault!" Zhao Xin Xin only now felt how useless and weak she was.
"It's not your fault! That Sun Sheng is too detestable!" He Dong comforted in a soft voice.
"But if it weren't for me, Master, you wouldn't be in such a predicament!" Zhao Xinxin had seen all of He Dong's actions and understood everything he had done for her.
"Don't blame yourself, I'm fine now, aren't I?" He Dong comforted.
"But, Master...!" Zhao Xinxin looked at He Dong's pale face with concern.
"Don't think nonsense now. I'll pass you the fire magic right now, whether we can escape from here depends on you!" He Dong said suddenly with a serious tone.
"Master, are you going to teach me magic?" Zhao Xinxin asked excitedly.
"Yes! I will pass on to you two fire-type magic, one is the attacking Fireball Technique and the other is the defensive Flame Shield Technique. You should carefully comprehend them!" He Dong said, and with a flicker of his mind, he summoned a third-level Flame Bird, then bestowed upon Zhao Xinxin the bird's innate abilities and special skills.
"Ah! This... feels so strange! My whole body is warm and cozy, just like I'm soaking in a hot spring!" Zhao Xinxin closed her eyes, her face full of enjoyment.
Looking at Zhao Xinxin's expression, He Dong couldn't help but smile wryly.
