Chapter 140: The Dark Great Sun Falls (3k, Second Update)
Jiebo opened his eyes and found himself in a basement. His true body had a bronze complexion, short hair, and a square face; he was only 1.7 meters tall, but his muscles were solid and his build was sturdy.
Seeing him wake up, a blade was already pressed against his throat.
The Japanese woman who had never appeared in the Boys' team, Kimiko, now stood before him.
This woman could not speak, and her expression at this moment was exceptionally cold.
Jiebo lowered his eyes slightly, already understanding everything.
"When did you people have that Cate modify my cognition and memories?"
In truth, when Golden Boy appeared in the Boys' team, he should have realized Cate's presence, but for some reason, he hadn't noticed it. What was even more obvious was that, as a sex addict, there was no reason for him not to covet a beauty like Cate.
The only explanation was that his previous actions had already been restrained; before using his own body and Starlight's body, he had chosen bodies with average attributes, and his combat power at that time had not been strong.
It was not strange that he could be restrained by Queen Maeve or Butcher and the others who had injected themselves with Compound V.
It was likely from that time on that he had already been influenced by Cate.
Cate was also a character from the Boys spin-off series "Gen V," who appeared at Godolkin University alongside Golden Boy, and was the most bizarre type of Spirit-based Ability User.
Even while taking drugs to suppress her abilities year-round, she could still forcibly control others' spirits and bodies through physical touch, manipulating their actions, and possessed the ability to read the inner thoughts of those around her when not using drugs to suppress herself.
At the same time, she could also directly control targets who were in the same space as her.
Furthermore, she could use this Spirit ability to blur or revise a target's memories and even their cognition.
She was the most dangerous and bizarre type among all Ability Users.
Jiebo shook his head, and his neck immediately rubbed against the blade in Kimiko's hand, but the two produced a harsh, grating sound like a knife cutting through leather.
"I really did underestimate you people, haha..."
He laughed heartily, mocking himself, and also mocking that Tao Baibai.
The two of them, Reincarnators who boasted of turning the world into a complete mess, had actually fallen into the schemes of these Plot Characters like Butcher.
Thinking about it now, a selfish guy like Butcher actually agreeing to entrust the success or failure of everything to someone whose background he didn't know completely contradicted the character setting of Butcher.
He laughed louder and louder, then suddenly lowered his head again, recalling the scene he saw in the last second before Starlight's body exploded: Tao Baibai being sent flying by A-Train.
The corners of his mouth curled up, and he mocked,
"Tao Baibai, oh Tao Baibai, I didn't expect it because I was interfered with by Cate, but you—did you not realize this even after seeing Golden Boy..."
"Then you didn't die unjustly."
Kimiko frowned; she really disliked this dangerous guy, and at this moment, she applied force to her hand, intending to cut off his head.
But Jiebo just raised his head, looked at her, and frowned, saying,
"Hey, hey, I know you and I don't get along, you're the type of self-healing Ability User I find most annoying, and you're ugly, but I suggest you wait for Butcher's order..."
He knew that since his true body was just being controlled here, it meant Butcher still needed his abilities.
Sure enough, the next second, a phone rang.
The voice of "Milk" rang out.
"Kimiko, order that man to use that move and kill Homelander!"
"Otherwise, kill him!"
Jiebo shrugged his shoulders and raised his hands, signaling Kimiko to undo the steel bars on his hands.
Kimiko put down the phone and roughly unscrewed the steel bars. Her abilities were also quite powerful; she could be called a low-spec version of Wolverine, possessing a self-healing ability that made her very hard to kill. Correspondingly, this intense cellular activity granted her physical abilities far exceeding those of an ordinary person.
Jiebo knew that since these people needed him to kill Homelander, this basement should not be very far from the battlefield. He opened the basement door, crawled out, and sure enough, heard intense explosions.
In the distance, Homelander, flying in the air, was frantically bombing the ground with his Heat Vision.
Panic had already spread among the Government Army.
Butcher's Heat Vision kept firing back, but Homelander's Flight speed was too fast, making it difficult for Butcher to hit him; instead, he himself had been hit a few times hard.
Jiebo scanned the area, trying to find traces of Tao Baibai, but Kimiko did not give him time, once again pressing her blade against his heart.
Jiebo sighed.
"Actually, you don't need to do this. As long as it's confirmed that my opponent is dead, I will naturally take action to kill Homelander myself."
"After all, for a guy of that level, killing him once can bring me great benefits."
Swish!
Hughie appeared, naked. He looked at the guy in front of him with hatred; his face held a thousand kinds of resentment and pain, but in the end, he just lowered his head and said,
"That Tao Baibai is already dead. He confirmed it; his heartbeat and pulse have both disappeared, his bones are shattered, and his internal organs are crushed. Butcher wants you to act immediately."
Only by lowering his head could he hide the rage in his eyes.
But Butcher had already promised him that after killing Homelander, he would definitely kill this Jiebo as well, to avenge Annie.
These few Asians who had wreaked havoc in Meilijian must be eliminated.
Jiebo pretended not to see the thoughts of these people.
He surmised that on the front line at this moment, Cate's sneak attack had likely been broken by Homelander, and Butcher and the others had completely lost any other means to kill Homelander.
His gaze was mocking; these Plot Characters, in the end, did not understand what his ability represented.
He then placed his hands into two mudras, held them in front of his chest, and his brow-center crown chakra shone brilliantly.
At the same time, he began to chant loudly in his mouth, a hymn that could not be heard by normal hearing.
This very moment was the time to lead all of this to a shattered end.
The Dark Great Sun would descend here. "I shall spread the radiance of the strongest..."
His chanting grew louder and louder, and the golden light on his body grew stronger and stronger.
At first, it was just light, but soon, that light began to emit an unbearable scorching heat.
Hughie was the first to be unable to bear it; he kept retreating, feeling that this Jiebo had turned into a furnace, and the temperature where the opponent's body was located likely already exceeded the limit that humans could withstand.
No... not just humans.
He clearly saw the display cases and fences around the opponent begin to smoke, and then open flames began to appear.
And this Asian man was still chanting that incomprehensible language, his voice growing increasingly high-pitched.
Whoosh!
Flames ignited from the other person's clothes and subsequently set the entire house ablaze; Kimiko could not endure it either and fled rapidly.
A massive torch rose from the house, the raging fire burning ever larger; that deep red flame clearly exceeded the limit of what a normal house fire could produce.
Homelander did not care at first, still unilaterally beating the few people.
!
No longer suppressing his power at all, Homelander's strength was in a league of its own.
Not only could he keep up with A-Train's speed, but his Flight posture was also crushing compared to A-Train.
At the same time, in terms of strength, he completely crushed Queen Maeve; although Butcher possessed a power type close to his, he gradually fell into a disadvantage in both strength and speed.
Homelander had lost his sanity by this point; he didn't even have the interest to distinguish which faction the humans appearing in his eyes belonged to before a blast of Heat Vision turned the other party into a puddle of mush.
Pfft!
Homelander finally punched through Butcher's abdomen; this arrogant guy who had been tracking him all along because of a woman finally spat out blood.
Homelander pushed indifferently, and Butcher fell backward.
"Who is next among you?"
Homelander looked at A-Train, who had several broken ribs, and Queen Maeve, who had obvious bloodstains on her chest; Queen Maeve had been wounded by Bai Cangshu, but the injuries were not as serious as imagined.
Om!
Ma!
Ni!
Pad!
Me!
Hum!
The strange mantra sounded as if it were coming from the sky; Homelander turned his head to look, only to see a pitch-black sun gradually rising amidst the massive firelight, reaching the sky in the blink of an eye.
And it blocked the sun in everyone's eyes.
The black sun began to emit pitch-black flames all around; Homelander squinted, actually having a strange feeling that the sun had truly turned black.
He shook his head, and the next moment, he discovered that the black sun began to fall from the sky.
His expression changed slightly, and his figure shot into the sky.
No one could use such a trick to make him have an illusion; he could naturally fly into the sky and look directly at the real sun.
But the next moment, the blue robe on Homelander's body suddenly began to burn; he looked down and discovered that black flames were starting to appear all over his body.
"Ah!"
The terrified scream was like the coming of the apocalypse; Bobby was trembling all over, and no matter how much he believed in Homelander, this scene before him still sapped his courage completely.
"The sun... is falling..."
Everyone could not help but be pressed to the ground by the terrifying air pressure.
The black sun fell from the sky; the terrifying air pressure and high temperature made everyone feel panic involuntarily, like ants on a cliff before a volcanic eruption.
The fear of facing death directly made it impossible for anyone to have even a moment of peace.
Will die.
Going to die.
Must die...
Homelander also looked up and saw that black sun, which he feared was over a thousand meters in size, falling from the sky; he had already confirmed that this was absolutely not an illusion or a trick.
"What is this... ability..."
Proud as Homelander was, at this moment, he also inexplicably felt a sense of fear.
Heat Vision erupted from his eyes, but it sank into the black sun, only stirring up a few wisps of pitch-black flame.
That strange voice was still chanting, making Homelander restless; he glanced at his followers below who were completely overwhelmed by the terrifying air pressure and turned around, preparing to fly away.
But as a strange Wave expanded in circles from the black sun, Homelander discovered that he was unable to move at all, and could only watch helplessly as the black sun descended.
"I will not die..."
"Nothing can kill me..."
Homelander roared these words with a ferocious expression, and was subsequently swallowed by the black sun; that black sun landed silently from the sky, and then violent light and heat erupted in an instant.
Boom!
The pitch-black light swallowed everything; viewed from above, it was like a pitch-black flower blooming on the land of New York State, completely swallowing several blocks in black firelight.
The earth began to sink, and the surface began to collapse.
At the moment the Calamity sun fell, he showed a look of exhaustion, but suddenly, his heart palpitated, and as his pupils trembled, a breath appeared from behind him.
"It seems that the location you are in is the safe zone for this technique..."
It is Tao Baibai!
He is not dead!
