Dark Light Chaser.

Chapter 467 Lightning Storm
Ai Liang has been troubled by hyperthymesia since childhood, but because of this, she clearly remembers everything that happened from birth until she was five years old when her abilities awakened.

He was certain that he had not come into contact with anything strange or eerie.

Her body was also born from Feng Yue.

As for superpowers... Gao Bin has extrasensory perception, Jin Ping'an has teleportation, and while there are few naturally gifted individuals with superpowers unrelated to the supernatural, they do exist.

It's just that my abilities are slightly better than theirs.

The only thing Ai Liang wasn't sure about was what happened before her consciousness was born...

"That's hard to say."

The Thousand-Faced Man spread his hands: "After all, once you become an Apostle, you are no different from a monster. Unless you know the other party's background from the beginning, it is difficult to tell which one you are without a thorough examination."

“For example, Janus, he is a strange person who possessed human consciousness. I personally watched him slowly condense human consciousness back then.”

While giving examples, the man with a thousand faces didn't hesitate to sell Janus out completely.

"But no matter what, joining us is better than joining the Countermeasures Bureau, right? If you don't join either side, and the Countermeasures Bureau uses the same tactics they used to suppress Janus to suppress you, what will you do? Having a big family as a backing is always better..."

"I'll say it again, I refuse."

Ai Liang interrupted the Thousand-Faced Man without any politeness: "If the Countermeasures Bureau targets me, I'll beat them half to death and throw them back. Don't bother with me."

The Thousand-Faced Man casually extracted a segment of Ai Liang's mental energy from her mental perception and used it to estimate Ai Liang's current level of mental ability.

"Tsk tsk tsk, it's good to be confident. Hmm... Judging from your mental ability level when you scanned me, although your operation was a bit rough, in terms of overall quality, no one can compare to you except me."

However, putting aside the matter of spirit transference for now, how are you going to deal with Heat Death? Back then, he single-handedly held off most of the Apostles.

If a normal person were here, they would definitely be shocked by the Thousand-Faced Man's ability to arbitrarily intercept their mental energy.

However, mental abilities have never been Ai Liang's main focus.

He only needs to raise his mental abilities to the point where he can resist the consciousness invasion of the Thousand-Faced Man.

Since Ai Liang knew that the Thousand-Faced Man could freely intercept her mental energy, she could forget about determining his location through the link between the mental puppet and her main body.

Since we cannot determine the location of the Thousand-Faced Man, there is no need to waste any more time.

The Thousand-Faced Man noticed the change in Ai Liang's emotions: "Are you ready to make your move? I have one last question. Back then, I was just..."

Boom! ! !

Before the man with a thousand faces could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a thunderclap from the sky.

Dense dark clouds began to gather around.

Ai Liang did not intend to reveal his telekinetic abilities in order to deal with a mental puppet.

He plans to test his latest advancements in telekinesis on a man with a thousand faces.

This can both conceal the existence of psychokinetic abilities and create a certain degree of misleading.

Using telekinesis to create a gale, gather dark clouds to cause a large number of positive and negative charges to rub against each other, and then, through mental guidance, lock onto the target of lightning strikes.

An artificial lightning storm was thus created.

Ai Liang refused to believe that a current of hundreds of millions of volts couldn't burn a mental puppet to death.
The man with a thousand faces looked up at the dense dark clouds around him: "Is this creating thunderclouds by interfering with the wind direction through consciousness?"

No one answered his question.

Ai Liang isn't like the characters in comics who explain the principles behind their abilities to their enemies while fighting.

"Okay, it seems you're not planning to tell me."

The Thousand-Faced Man sighed deeply: "Then can you tell me why you have such a strong opinion against the Apostles? Is it because you consider yourself human and can't stand the actions of the Apostles? You were..."

"It has nothing to do with the Apostles."

Ai Liang finally spoke: "I simply have a score to settle with you!"

While they were talking, Ai Liang had a sudden thought and guided a bolt of lightning, twenty meters wide, to strike the Thousand-Faced Man.

Crackling!

The thick bolt of lightning engulfed the Thousand-Faced Man, with countless arcs of electricity leaping around him.

After a burst of lightning, the Thousand-Faced Man was completely unharmed; all the electricity was blocked by a transparent shield.

The Thousand-Faced Man smiled and said, "When our mental power reaches this level, it's not just a simple matter of controlling other people's thoughts."

Generally speaking, once you reach the level of the Director of the Countermeasures Bureau, you can try to solidify your mental energy to resist some damage. You still have a long way to go in developing your mental abilities…”

Swish!
Ai Liang had no interest in having the Thousand-Faced Man act as her life mentor.

A blinding white light pierced through the clouds and descended from the sky.

Previously, Ai Liang could only mimic a Fresnel lens to focus sunlight, but now, with his enhanced abilities, he can more efficiently and directly influence electromagnetic radiation.

Lightning has a temperature of only tens of thousands of degrees Celsius, but a beam of light formed directly by electromagnetic radiation can reach at least hundreds of thousands of degrees.

This attack was not much weaker than the beam of light from heat death.

Aside from the Tyrant's ability to specifically counter energy attacks, no one can stop it.

As for what the Thousand-Faced Man said, it was about using spiritual power to condense into a tangible shield.

Using it occasionally to reinforce the Countermeasures Bureau's impression of me as a mental ability user is not a problem.

But in actual combat, Ai Liang would have to be out of her mind to give up the more practical telekinetic shield.

The Thousand-Faced Man's mental shield was as fragile as an eggshell, and was directly pierced by the beam of light.

At the critical moment, the Thousand-Faced Man tilted his body to the side, dodging the fatal blow, but his right shoulder and entire right arm were burned to ashes by the beam of light.

Mask is, after all, just a mask. With the blessing of the Thousand-Faced Man's true form, he can quickly recover unless he is killed in one blow.

The thousand-faced man's crying mask turned into black liquid and flowed towards the wound.

The black liquid twisted and deformed like a stretched spring, eventually transforming into a brand new arm that was attached to the wound.

Looking at that smooth, new skin, apart from the burned clothes, there was no trace of injury whatsoever.

Having confirmed the attack's effectiveness, Ai Liang ceased her probing attacks.

If you can dodge one beam of light, do you think you can dodge ten or a hundred?

Swish!Swish!Swish!
Hundreds and thousands of beams of energy descended from the sky, like the descent of holy spirits or the hurling of spears by gods.

If these energies are brought together, Ai Liang can use the pillars of light as a brush and the earth as a canvas to create art.

It would have been fine if the disciples hadn't managed to move Ai Liang and the Thousand-Faced Man out of the spatial confinement.

If the Countermeasures Bureau had been present, Ai Liang probably wouldn't have gone this far.

But since the Thousand-Faced Man had Janus move them out and deliberately created an environment where no outsiders would disturb them, Ai Liang was not going to be polite.
