LOGINWhere was Ray?Lindsay saw it too and couldn't help snorting. "See? I told you they were working together!"Otherwise, why hadn't a fight broken out?Lucy still refused to believe it. Instead, she grew even more worried. "Maybe Ray was forced to go with them."They had guns, after all.Lindsay scoffed. "It makes far more sense that they're in this together!"Lucy was both anxious and frustrated, pacing like an ant on a hot pan. She wanted to go out and "rescue" Ray, but with her meager strength, facing that group of thugs would be nothing more than walking to her death. Yet, if she didn't go, wouldn't she be betraying the fact that Ray had come all this way to help?Hadn't she dragged him into this mess?She was beside herself with worry.Lindsay only added fuel to the fire. "Hey, let's just check the surveillance playback, and we'll know."She pulled up the recording, rewound it to the moment Ray first confronted the group, and hit play.Then both women's mouths fell open a
Ray extended his right hand, his expression calm, his demeanor effortlessly cool.A terrifying scene unfolded. Every bullet halted in midair before him, as if time itself had frozen. It resembled the climactic moment at the end of The Matrix, when Neo became the savior—raising a hand to stop the bullets as though the flow of time had been suspended.Spatial domain.Ray smiled faintly and reached out to pinch one of the bullets between his fingers. Tilting his head slightly, he let the rest fall to the ground all at once.In truth, he didn't need to make any gestures at all. But it looked cooler this way.The remaining fifteen men felt as though the tops of their skulls had been torn off. They trembled uncontrollably.How could they possibly match an enemy like this?Ray toyed with the bullet in his hand, then flicked his finger.Whoosh.The projectile shot forward. With a sickening thud, it pierced straight through one man's forehead. Before collapsing, the victim cast Ray a d
Lindsay hesitated again and again before finally saying, "Fine. But we need a backup plan. Go to the kitchen and get the cleavers."Lucy had just opened her mouth to protest when she saw the unwavering determination on Lindsay's face. It was clear that unless she fetched the knives, Lindsay would never open the door. With no other choice, she gave in and went.Before long, she returned with two cleavers in hand.Lindsay nodded. She raised her hand, ready to press the switch and open the door, but it remained suspended in midair.Because new figures had suddenly appeared on the surveillance screen—the same group of thugs from earlier.Could Ray really be in league with them?"The thugs are here! Hurry and open the door—let Ray in!" Lucy cried out in alarm. Even if Ray truly had supernatural abilities, there were more than a dozen enemies. He was unarmed, while they carried guns.How could he possibly fight them?"No!" Lindsay objected immediately. "Silly Lucy, can't you see? The
Lucy couldn't help but feel startled.That was right.Ray was in Senna City, while she was in Tanzan City. The straight-line distance between them was nearly two hundred kilometers. It had been barely an hour since their phone call—and he had already found her?Was that even possible?How could it be?Even if he had taken a plane, the road signs were buried under heavy snow. How could he have found his way here? This was mountainous terrain. With the blizzard, not only was travel difficult, but visibility was also poor. Even a military unit would likely struggle to locate this place so quickly."Could those people be impersonating him?" Lucy blurted out, then immediately shook her head. "That's impossible. Even you don't know what Ray looks like—how could they?"For anyone to impersonate him, they would first need to know his appearance. That was basic logic.Lindsay fell into thought. After a few seconds, she said, "What if Ray has been lying to you all along? Maybe he's actua
The gate and the walls were entirely constructed of metal, yet they didn't reflect light too harshly. Instead, they emitted a faint, subdued metallic sheen. Surveillance cameras and speakers were installed along the walls as well, making communication with those inside convenient.But now, none of the devices were functioning. With limited energy, conservation was a necessity.Ray knocked on the door.Bang. Bang. Bang.Inside the shelter, Lucy and Lindsay both shuddered at the same time."Those people are back?""Didn't they say they wouldn't come until this afternoon at the earliest?""Lucy, what do we do?""Lindsay, what do we do?"The two women spoke simultaneously. They stared at each other wide-eyed, yet all they could see reflected on the other's face was sheer panic."I should've contacted Ray sooner," Lucy said with deep regret.During their previous conversations, Ray had mentioned people with supernatural abilities and had admitted that he was one himself. He hadn'
From Dolmein to Lucy's shelter, the straight-line distance was only 167 kilometers. To reach Guillory City, it would still be over a hundred kilometers.Ray did the math. If he ran at full speed, he estimated he could reach Lucy within an hour. Perhaps a little longer—after all, he had never traveled such long distances before and couldn't be entirely sure.First, he was capable of it. Second, Lucy was the first woman he had been interested in; there were certain… special feelings involved. It wasn't that he absolutely had to go to her, but since she had specifically asked for help, he didn't mind making the trip.Adding two more bowls at the dinner table was hardly a big deal.Ray stepped out of the manor. After confirming his direction, he began to run.With the reinforcement of more than seven thousand units of supernatural enhancement, just how terrifying had his speed become?Whoosh—he shot forward, faster even than a top-tier sports car.At this rate, he could definitely r
The group didn't notice him; they continued along their predetermined path.Ray followed suit, moving forward on his makeshift skis. The hovercraft would have been far too conspicuous.After a dozen minutes, a cluster of buildings appeared ahead."Caesar Sanatorium," Ray muttered to himself.Thi
Ray naturally realized the bear-man was trying to smash through the wall and burst outside.His expression darkened.The sound of the wall shattering echoed.Ray immediately broke through the door and sprinted toward the outer wall.Was he going to jump after him? Of course not.He smiled. The
At this moment, Ray's mind was completely focused on how to deal with Number 114.Not to mention Jennifer—even if Lucy or Celine, the two top-tier beauties he hadn't claimed yet, came to seduce him in lingerie or yoga outfits, he could guarantee he wouldn't be tempted.A fight was about to happen;
No wonder Jennifer had vomited when she relayed what had happened to Ethan.What was left of Ethan could not even be called a corpse anymore. It was nothing but a heap of rotten flesh and bones!Ray immediately shut off his spatial perception. He had already confirmed it—there wasn't a single livi
