Free Web NovelIt was too sudden, far too sudden.
So sudden that the Countermeasure Bureau hadn't made any preparations.
It would have been one thing if Ye Yao only knew about Lou Wei's hidden identity.
But what did "knowing everything" even mean?
Was there really no room for a buffer?
Countless conjectures flashed through the minds of the Countermeasure Bureau High Command.
They were doing their best to figure out Ye Yao's intentions.
Long before the Battle for Blue Star began, they had known what Lou Wei and Fu Qi were hiding.
After all, since they had prepared for sacrifice, they had to settle their affairs.
This included the deeper secrets of Ye Yao and Ye Tong.
Now, the question arose.
Why would Ye Yao go out under the guise of "Ye Tong"?
They understood; although the child knew everything, her personality hadn't changed. It was reasonable that she didn't want to expose her true face, and using "Ye Tong's" shell made even more sense.
Then why did she go out?
The Countermeasure Bureau High Command could only guess one possibility.
That after learning from Ye Tong that she possessed unparalleled power, she was trying to stimulate her potential to save Lou Wei and Fu Qi, who were in a critical situation!
Upon guessing this, they felt their hands and feet go cold.
Ye Yao using the power of the World-Ending Ability... wouldn't that be truly using "Ye Tong"?
What was the difference between that and the two of them merging into one during the Spirit of Vengeance incident?
This was the true sequence 001!
"Quick! Find a way to notify Lou Wei! Forget that damn Interstellar Overlord for now! Stop Ye Yao from awakening the power within her first!"
Damn it!
This Interstellar Overlord was nothing; compared to the crisis brought by the World-Ending Ability, did it even have the capability?
Lou Wei and Fu Qi, those two heavyweight firecrackers, might be able to blow it up or kill it, but against "Nursery Rhyme," they'd be nothing more than a faint pop!
"It's no use! We can't contact them! All communication has been cut off!"
"Then contact Ye Yao!"
"...That won't work either! She didn't take any communication equipment with her!"
Everyone's faces turned ashen.
Meanwhile.
High up in the sky.
The conqueror Xing Jie naturally noticed the two men's do-or-die resolve.
It certainly also discovered the turning point for the two of them.
Xing Jie's gaze shifted slightly, landing on an ordinary human.
The power within her was more insignificant than an ant's, no different from a newborn cub.
Xing Jie quickly understood.
It had witnessed this familiar scene many times while destroying numerous civilizations.
Adult individuals of weak species would always burst forth with unexpected potential to save the lives of their young.
They did not fear death, only wishing to buy time for the weak to escape or attempting to sacrifice themselves to eliminate the greatest threat.
That moment was just like this one.
These two human warriors probably decided to risk everything just to protect that ant, right?
To be honest, Xing Jie was actually quite happy to see this.
Only warriors who stood up in such circumstances were satisfying.
Just then.
The All-Knowing Magic Eye also seemed to notice this tiny human.
Although it had always disdained looking at creatures with less than a thousand Spiritual Power.
But since this was a being that both the strongest human warriors and the Interstellar Overlord had taken notice of, she was worthy of a brief glance.
However, once it looked, the subtle fluctuations in Spiritual Power captured by the All-Knowing Magic Eye caused its main body to shudder violently!
The information contained within this Spiritual Power...
The All-Knowing Magic Eye's massive eyeball was instantly bloodshot.
【???: Ye Yao
Race: Human
Identity: Magical Girl Tong Yao, Leader of Sequence Zero, Countermeasure Bureau sequence 001...】
The All-Knowing Magic Eye instinctively publicized this information that it had identified with all its might.
But soon, it identified some incredible information.
【Hiss, can we settle this peacefully?】
Many bloodthirsty viewers who hadn't suffered a mental breakdown saw the public intelligence from the All-Knowing Magic Eye.
"Who is this expert now?"
"Wait? Magical Girl Tong Yao?! Is it the Nursery Rhyme I'm thinking of?"
"What does 'Leader of Sequence Zero' mean? Is this for real?!"
"Holy crap! Countermeasure Bureau sequence 001! I remember these sequence numbers represent threat levels; what level does sequence ✧ NоvеIight ✧ (Original source) 001 represent?"
"What's up with this All-Knowing Magic Eye? Isn't it an alien creature? Why is it begging a human for mercy?"
"Yeah, exactly! It wasn't even this exaggerated toward the modern strongest!"
Without a doubt.
The intelligence released by the All-Knowing Magic Eye managed to dispel much of the panic.
Everyone was curious about who this "Ye Yao" was.
Judging by the identities revealed by the All-Knowing Magic Eye, she was clearly anything but simple!
Just the two words "Nursery Rhyme" made people's brains tremble.
They had almost forgotten that even if Lou Wei and Fu Qi couldn't defeat the alien enemy, there was still the Great Empress Nursery Rhyme to fall back on!
They had almost forgotten because of the sheer panic!
"Someone tell me! Is she really that goddess who ushered in the new era?!"
"I don't know! In the scenes recreated by Jiang Huashen earlier, Nursery Rhyme's figure was clearly more petite!"
"B-but their hair colors both seem to be silver. Are they really the same person?"
The crowd buzzed with discussion, their curiosity stronger than ever.
Yet, many already had a vague answer in their hearts.
If she wasn't that goddess who ushered in the new era, why would the All-Knowing Magic Eye beg for mercy?
It had clearly read some heavyweight intelligence!
It didn't even dare to make the full information public, fearing a reckoning later!
That's right!
It's definitely Her!
At the same time.
The three beings high in the sky also noticed the All-Knowing Magic Eye's little move.
Seeing the publicized information, Lou Wei almost lost his composure.
The same went for Fu Qi; the resolve he had just built up nearly dissipated.
Wait, man, why is it "Ye Yao"?
But Lou Wei quickly steadied his emotions.
Thinking about it carefully, it wasn't surprising.
Ye Tong originally came from within Ye Yao and was her ability incarnation; even the name "Ye Tong" might be meaningless.
Plus, she was almost identical to Ye Yao except for her core.
So it wasn't strange for the All-Knowing Magic Eye to mistake "Ye Tong" for "Ye Yao."
As for why there was the identity of "Leader of Sequence Zero"...
Lou Wei didn't know the principle behind the All-Knowing Magic Eye's intelligence gathering.
It was only possible that the experiences of Ye Tong and Ye Yao had become jumbled together, merging their information and producing this inaccurate result.
Looking at the All-Knowing Magic Eye's reaction, it definitely knew about the existence of the "World-Ending Ability."
It seemed to know exactly what that meant; it was something the Interstellar Overlord it currently served couldn't possibly compare to.
Therefore, there was no need to worry yet; Ye Yao should be safely staying inside the Countermeasure Bureau headquarters.
There was no way she could suddenly appear outside.
Despite thinking this, Lou Wei kept his eyes on the silver-haired figure below.
His Spiritual Power was sufficient for him to monitor the entire situation.
Just then, a worried murmur reached his ears.
"Father..."
Lou Wei: "..."
Something's wrong!!!
