Odd Containment Specialist.

Chapter 499 Xia Shou's Intimidation

Xia Shou reviewed his skill library again. All the abilities of the Timekeeper were returned to him for everything he devoured. The Mask of Desire, which had been completed, also returned to its unfinished state.

However, Hei Wuchang's two skills were completely preserved.

This should be the difference between the present world and the non-present world in "Seeking One's Own Death".

"Wait, that thing in your hand is... that monster's weapon?"

A timekeeper noticed the mourning stick in Xia Shou's hand.

Soon, other people around discovered traces of a fight at the scene. Although there was no blood, the broken bluestone road and the large flower fields that had been flattened around it still told the amnesiac that a lot had just happened here.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Xia Shou. Pedros opened his eyes wide and showed an expression of surprise he had never had before, even more surprised than when Xia Shou was fighting just now.

Sometimes, the unknown is the greatest fear. The only thing he knows about Xia Shou now is that Xia Shou seems to have some ability to manipulate space and memory, and forcibly erased everyone's memory.

The most important thing is that his ability level is so frighteningly high that Pedros is somewhat reluctant to believe his first judgment based on reason.

Pedros stroked his chin, thinking secretly.

Although his strength is much weaker than that of his peak period, he is still a LV5 extraordinary person, and Xia Shou's supernatural power can actually tamper with his cognition, which means that Xia Shou's supernatural power is at least LV5!

What made Pedros feel even more incredible was that he did not feel any abnormal aura escaping. When a level 5 transcendent took action, it would inevitably cause a large amount of cursed power to escape. This was also the reason why many organizations strictly prohibited level 5 members from moving freely.

But Xia Shou did not cause the cursed power to dissipate, so there is only one conclusion - Xia Shou is LV4, but his supernatural power is that of a super-limited first-level extraordinary person!
"What a headache," Pedros whispered to himself.

From a certain perspective, mind-interference abilities are the most disgusting abilities. Unlike ordinary combat abilities, they do not destroy targets through physical attacks. The reason why mind-interference abilities are not taken seriously is because they require an extremely high level of abnormality from the holder.

This kind of ability is not like combat abilities. As long as the opponent is a glass cannon, you, a level one ability user, may be able to defeat a level five ability user.

There are only two results for psychic powers: effective or ineffective.

In battle, they are either completely useless or have an overwhelming advantage.

And it is obvious that the witch's trump card has the advantage of crushing most of the extraordinary people.

Xia Shou hung the mourning stick on his back and said to Su Yue and others, "Let's go. Hei Wuchang also said that there is no turning back on the road to the underworld. We can only keep moving forward."

Everyone walked forward silently, and Pedros took the initiative to walk to Xia Shou and said, “This lady has already told me about my matter, but in order to avoid misunderstanding, I still want to explain it to you again.

All the unpleasant things that happened in the past were due to the mistakes I made when I was young and ignorant, but now as the second hand of the Clock Tower, I naturally have to follow the Clock Tower’s position and will. As long as there is no conflict of interest, the Clock Tower is very happy to cooperate with the Control Bureau.

There is no problem in helping in any way possible.”

"Assist? Hearing is not as good as seeing. You may be willing to assist us, but you really didn't help at all at the most critical moment." Xia Shou replied coldly.

Pedros' pupils contracted slightly and he tried his best to suppress the change in his expression, but the muscles in his cheeks still remained unnaturally stiff for a few seconds.

"I don't know. Have I explained the reason to you?" Pedros asked cautiously.

In his mind, he already had some guesses about the approximate effect of Xia Shou's supernatural powers.

"I've explained it, but who knows whether it's true or not? I want to hear you say it again." Xia Shou glanced at the other person.

Pedros blinked, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I...we came here for a certain purpose. If it weren't for that critical moment, I would never activate my superpowers even if I died. My superpowers are the kind that overdraw future potential."

Xia Shou nodded: "I said less than before, but I didn't lie. Pedros, this place is more dangerous than I thought. If we don't trust each other in the future, probably no one will survive."

Pedros nodded silently, trying his best to suppress the great uneasiness in his heart, and walked back to the team.

"Lord Second Hand, how is it?" the deputy commander of the clock tower team asked softly.

"Tracy, do you remember how you felt when you first met me?" Pedros asked indifferently.

Tracy was stunned and blinked her green eyes, recalling the scene when she first met Pedros. At that time, she was a life dealer who sold life and established her own organization with a banned object.

After being caught by the Clock Tower for the first time, she fought off the people sent by the Clock Tower alone.

That time, she could have killed all the people sent by the Clock Tower to warn her, but because she didn't want to offend the Clock Tower, she let them all go back to convey the meaning of "mind your own business".

The second person to come was Pedros.

Pedros was the only one who came at that time. She mocked him contemptuously, and then all her people "died".

Tracy still remembers the fear she felt at that time, and to this day, she still doesn't know what happened that day.

Her seal had no effect on Pedros, and all of her companions died except her.

The death of her companion was the final result presented to her, but they knew nothing about the cause of all this.

At that time, she felt that she was finished and was going to die.

However, Pedros said that this was an option that could happen or be canceled.

So she chose to join the Clock Tower.

So nothing ever happened.

That day, Pedros was like the god of time in her eyes, and he still is today.

"I can't even think of resisting. He's so powerful that I can't imagine." Tracy said honestly.

She seemed to have guessed what Pedros was going to say next, but she didn't want to hear such words coming from the mouth of the man she admired.

Pedros opened his mouth, looking somewhat disappointed.

He hesitated for a moment: "Tracy, I didn't expect you to be so cowardly that you didn't even think of resisting at that time...but your feelings at that time are indeed similar to my current feelings.

Information gap.”

"Bad information?"

"There is a huge intelligence gap between us and Xia Shou, just like an opponent who can see your cards." Pedros pondered for a moment, "Only idiots would bet against him, and smart people would follow such people to bet."

"Sir, do you mean that we should listen to him from now on?" Tracy said with reluctance.

"You are the ones who have to listen to him," Pedros emphasized.
