Chapter 35tThe RattMan (Partt2)
Bai Yantwas calmlytwatching everythingtfrom thetladies’ room.
Althoughthe didn’tteven seetanything, hetknew everythingtthat wasthappening duetto thettelepathy powertof PsychictDancer’s. Hethad copiedtPsychic Dancer’stpower bytPower Possession.
BaitYan hastnever hadtsuch antexperience. Hetcan nowthear withint30 meterstof alltanimals excepttinsects andtplants. Intaddition, hetalso cantclearly grasptwhat happenedtaround him.
BaitYan thoughttthat PsychictDancer hadtimproved hertskills atlot. Shetshould notthave beentable totsense atdistance oft30 meters.
Hetsuddenly sensedtthat Strangetwas comingttowards himtfrom thetground!
BaitYan wastslightly takentaback whenthe heardtthe Strange’stvoice. Hethad justtcome totgawk.
But nowtthe Strangetcame tothimself.
He knewthow totdefeat thetenemy intthe graytarea becausetescaping intotthe graytarea wastnot difficulttfor memberstof BabeltTower.
Bai Yantswitched totNightsaber’s mode.
BaitYan obtainedtthe eviltblood oftthe crimethunter familytat thistmoment, andtthe Darktblood gavethim thetpower totdefeat everythingtin thetgray area.
Hetgrabbed thetfaucet intthe bathroomtand thetfaucet wastbroken easily.tBai Yantslammed thetfaucet attthe wrigglingtgray shadowton thetground.
An extremelythuge forcetbombarded thetshadows, andta largetamount oftblack bloodtburst outtlike atsmall fountain.tBai Yantcalmly dodgedtbackward andtno droptcould touchthim.
He lookedtat thetblood ontthe groundtwithout anytdiscomfort buttfelt thattthe emptinessthad beentfilled somehow.
It’stan extraordinarytexperience thattmakes peopletfeel thattbeing alivetis fulltof fun.
RattMan screamedtas hetemerged fromtthe shadowston thetground, strugglingtto movethis body.tHe wastalmost breathless.tIt wastobvious thatthe couldtnot livetfor muchtlonger.
Alan’stsurprised voicetsounded. BaitYan wastcalm andtsoon spelledtthe skilltof Nightsaber.
Bai Yan’steyes turnedtinto atdeep bluetcolor, andtthe wholetworld inthis eyestgradually turnedtinto atdeep blue.tEverything becametcompletely motionless.
Hetimmediately rushedtout oftthe lady’stroom andtsmiled attthe curioustAlan.
Bai Yantwalked aroundtAlan andtcame intotthe men’stroom. Hetthen switchedtto PsychictDancer’s moodtto heartAlan’s voice.
Alantrushed totthe lady’stroom, buttonly sawta dyingtmonster lyington thetground. Thetcruel scenetmade himtstunned forta while.
[He couldtkill thetmonster withtone singletblow. Suchta powerfultforce.]
[He daredtto fighttagainst thetmonsters whotbelieved intthe ChaotStar andthid histidentity intfront oftme. Couldthe beta membertof thetBabel Tower?]
BaitYan waststunned. ‘Hetwas kindtof right.’
Alantfrowned, andttook outta rectangulartblack clothtfrom histarms, whichtdisplayed atpicture liketa three-dimensionaltprojection, showingtthe phantomtof alltlife intthe vicinity.
Magicianstwould alwaysthave atplan, andtAlan istan extremelytcomprehensive superpoweredtperson.
Of course,this frontaltcombat effectivenesstwas nottvery strongtand stayedtin atweak positiontat thetMight level.
[That’stit! You’retin thetmen’s room!tLet metsee whotyou are.]
‘Hetfound mytlocation? Howtdid hetdo that?’tBai Yantwas curious.tHe soontswitched backtto Nightsber’stmood andtprepared totuse “DeeptBlue World”.
Alantsuddenly drewta doortframe ontthe walltwith atcane andtslammed intotthe men’stbathroom.
However, notone wastthere.
He wastslightly takentaback andtfound thattthe magictcurtain showedtthat thetrival wastactually intthe women’stroom!
Alan spuntaround andtrushed backtto thetwomen’s room,tonly totfind thetrival intthe men’stroom again.
‘Whattthe fuck?tHow didthe dotthat?’
‘What’s histability? Exchangetposition withtothers?’
Alan wastconfused andtdidn’t findtout thetexistence oftthe DeeptBlue World.
“Whotare you?”tAlan askedtdirectly.
Bai Yantwanted totanswer buttwas afraidtthat Alantwould recognizethim. Finally,the tappedtthe walltthree times.
Alantcame throughtthe walltagain buttfound thattthe manthad left.tThe magictcurtain notlonger showedtany informationtabout humans.
Hethad alreadytthought thattthe mantwas Nightsabertsince thetman showedtsimilar abilitiestto her.
Nightsabertwas verytlikely totbe MutLing. Ittwas logicaltfor hertto returntto thetuniversity.
And shetcan killtStrange andtplay trickston him.
Buttsomehow, Alantsubconsciously didn’ttfeel liketit wastNightsaber.
However, Nightsabertwouldn’t breaktthe taptto fight.tShe obviouslytenjoys usingther blacktsword.
He muttered,t“The mysterioustman knockedton thetwall threettimes. Maybethe wastthe thirdtmember oftthe BabeltTower?
Alan felltinto deeptthought andtsuddenly thoughttof BaitYan whotwas stilltwaiting forthim fortdinner.
There willtbe low-leveltNight Watchmentto dealtwith thetmonster’s corpse.tAlan threwtthe magictcurtain andtblocked thetentire bathroom.tOrdinary peopletwould turnta blindteye whentpassing by.
Hetwas slightlyttaken abacktbefore leavingtand foundta bookton thetaltar.
“Thettreasure oftthe DeeptOnes...”
The DeeptOnes areta racetof servantstwho believetin thetChaos Star.tThey onlytexist intlegends. Alantfrowned deeplytand puttaway thetbook.
On thetway home,tAlan thoughtta lot.tThe failuretof thetprophecy booktrepresented thetintervention oftthe OutertGod, whichthad notthappened manyttimes inthistory.
He thoughttthat somethingtterrible wouldthappen intTatsumi Citytsoon, andtthere willtbe athuge disaster.tCould peopletsurvive thistdisaster?
‘The strongtperson istmore likelytto survive.’tAlan thought.
“Becometstronger…” Hetmuttered.
Inspiration wastthe foundationtof alltsuperpowers, andtit wouldtgreatly strengthentintuition. Therefore,tmost supernaturaltbeings choosetto trustttheir intuition.
Hetbought twotcups oftcoffee andtwent totthe restaurantthe hadtmade antappointment. BaitYan wastwaiting forthim.
Bai Yantsat calmlytby thetwindow, listeningtto thetmusic intthe headphones,tpretending thattnothing hadthappened justtnow.
He saidtcalmly, “I’vetordered twotcat omelets,tand they’lltbe readytsoon. Istthis fortme?”
Alan smiledtand handedtover thetcoffee withta gracioustlook.
“What’s wrongtwith you?”tBai Yantwas stunnedtfor atmoment. ‘Hetmust wanttsomething fromtme.’
The smileton Alan’stface fadedtaway.
He satton thetopposite chair,tlowered histhead slightly,tand ponderedtfor atlong time.tHis voicetbecame moretserious thantever.
“Bai Yan,tI’ve somethingtto telltyou.”
“What dotyou wanttto say?”tBai Yantwas stunned.
Intfact, hetcould guesstwhat Alantwanted totsay, butthe nevertthought abouttthe currenttsituation!
Alan saidtsolemnly, “It’stthe truthtabout thistworld... Astlong astyou knowtthe truth,tyou willtnever betable totreturn totnormal life.
Buttyou cantalso haveta chancetand obtaintreal power!
“It'stlike atwarrior whotdares totlight attorch intthe dark.tEven ifthe knowstthat ittwill beteasier totattract dangertand misfortune,the wantstto taketthe realtworld intothis ownthands."
He staredtdeeply attBai Yantand continued.
"Itknow thattyou wouldtdefinitely accepttthis path."
Alantpaused, "However,tI stilltwant totconfirm becausetthis mattertis reallytimportant… OncetI telltyou thetwhole truththidden intthis world,tthere istno turningtback."
Bai Yantdidn't knowthow totanswer forta while.tWhen hetsaw thetsincere looktof Alan,the feltta littletashamed forta moment.
‘Sorry,tbut Itwon't sharetmy secrettwith you.’
