เข้าสู่ระบบThis kind of situation was exactly what Ray liked to see—competition was always a good thing.During dinner, however, his mind was elsewhere. He was thinking about how to enter the Valor Military Base.'Should I disguise my identity and slip in?' he mused.But if that "Lieutenant Colonel Shay" really was from the Valor Military Base, then his appearance likely wasn't a secret. At the very least, some people would recognize him. If Ray walked in so openly, it would only cause trouble.It was just like when he had gone undercover in Agatha's place.'At the very least, I need some kind of disguise.'A sudden idea struck him.'Can I use my spatial domain to alter my appearance?'If he could detach a person's arms, swap them left and right, and reconnect them perfectly… then a bit of cosmetic modification shouldn't be difficult, right?Once the thought formed, he acted immediately.Ray returned to his room, activated his domain, and stood in front of the mirror to begin "fine-tuni
After the absurd interlude, it was naturally time to get back to serious matters."You managed to hack the satellites?" Ray asked.Celine lay lazily under the blanket, clearly drained. After a moment, she replied, "Mhm. I absorbed another golden snowflake earlier, and my ability improved a lot. My computational power has surged. I still can't fully control the satellites, but I've gained partial access."Ray leaned down and kissed her. "Good job. Help me locate the Valor Military Base.""Alright… but let me sleep for a bit first. I'm completely exhausted right now," she mumbled weakly.Should he call Heather over?Ray chuckled inwardly and began moving his hands.Less than two minutes later, Celine was no longer sleepy at all—instead, she looked bright and alert. She clung to him and bit lightly at his ear. "You jerk… can't you let me rest properly for even a moment?"Ray burst out laughing.But he hadn't woken her for that kind of nonsense.He restrained her hands and said,
Thinking of Travis, Ray couldn't help but let out a quiet sigh.He had decided to protect this settlement for four days.After four days, if the Valor Military Base still hadn't sent anyone to find him, he would leave.Of course, he wasn't idle during that time. Using the phone as a center point, he continuously roamed the surrounding area, searching for possible golden snowflakes.Leah had said golden snowflakes fell here frequently… and she hadn't been exaggerating.Just today alone, Ray encountered three snowfalls—and each one contained a golden snowflake.He collected them all.The amount of ability fluid inside golden snowflakes wasn't much. Based on his experience, they contained about 4 units, 5 units, and 8 units respectively. For someone at nearly 50,000 units, this was negligible.But that was only one day.Even a single day's yield added up over time would be considerable.More importantly, it would push the upper limit of the world's ability energy to a new level
Unfortunately for them, Ray was more than contented in that department.Three-way, four-way, even five-way encounters—so what? Did he look like someone that shallow?He rejected them. All of them.However, the fifth visitor surprised him. It was Leah—the foreign beauty."Ray, are you asleep?" Leah's voice came from outside the ice hut."Not yet. What's up?" Ray replied."Can you walk with me for a bit?" she asked.'Oh? So she even knows how to play hard to get now,' Ray thought to himself."Sure." Ray stepped out.Both of them were ability users, so the cold meant nothing to them. They simply strolled around the ice huts. Even Leah didn't have to worry about getting lost in the endless white."Ray… are you planning to leave here?" After walking a few steps, Leah finally asked.Ray nodded. "I'm not from here to begin with. I'm only staying temporarily. At most, I'll leave in four days."If the Valor Military Base showed up earlier, he would leave earlier. Either way, he woul
After having thoroughly "harvested" his tender batch of beauties, Ray returned to Guillory City.He still needed to keep watch on that phone.The Valor Military Base would never simply make a call, issue a threat, and then leave it at that. They would definitely come looking for him.Unless… that so-called Lieutenant Colonel Shay wasn't from the military at all, and had simply fabricated the identity to intimidate him. If Ray panicked and handed over his supplies, then she—or whoever was behind it—would profit immensely.That was actually quite possible.For example, if that person's ability involved controlling satellites, they could easily obtain Ray's information, even "observe" his battle with Channing and the others. That would allow them to fabricate details convincingly and better impersonate a military officer while intimidating him.Heh. Maybe this "Lieutenant Colonel Shay" was just some middle-aged man scratching his foot somewhere.Ray decided to continue monitoring f
Besides, sending people into Guillory City was effectively an invasion of someone else's territory. Getting chopped down for it—wasn't that only normal?If Bill and the others were sent back intact, it would instead make Ray look weak. Someone had already invaded your territory, and you only expelled them? That was far too soft.Once you showed weakness, others would assume you were easy to bully.That principle applied everywhere.Bill quickly nodded, gratitude written all over his face. "Ray, thanks for the advice. I'll head back now. I kind of miss my wife anyway.""Go," Ray said, already wishing he would leave sooner rather than later.Bill agreed and turned to go. After a few steps, however, he suddenly stopped, looking back. "Ray… what about your side effects?"'What the hell— No, I've changed my mind. I really should silence you,' Ray thought.Seeing Ray's expression darken, Bill froze for a moment, then slapped his own forehead. Right… Ray was from this settlement. If t
Honey and Amanda made their way home, nerves stretched tight the entire time.To be honest, even before the disaster, they wouldn't have felt this tense carrying ten thousand dollars in cash.Back then, social order had been too good. No one would dare commit a street robbery in broad daylight.B
Ray smiled as the door to the otherworldly dimensional space silently opened.He pretended to lower his head, the beam of the flashlight sweeping across the ground.Now.Moe charged first."Die!" he roared.It was the signal.Troy and the other five saw Moe rush forward and immediately followe
Wesley was utterly terrified."Don't kill me! Please, don't kill me! I'll do anything you want—just spare my life!"Ray felt a flicker of irritation. The moment Wesley collapsed like that, he'd coincidentally avoided the spatial gate Ray had opened in front of him."Leo, go."He swept the flashl
The man was dead. A large, gaping hole sat squarely in the center of his forehead, blood spilling out. His eyes were still wide open, as if asking, I never said I didn't believe you—so why was I the one who got shot?Everyone began trembling uncontrollably.A real gun. It was a real gun!Thomas
