Everything in the universe might be a coincidence, but within certain specific conditions and ranges, some events can become inevitable. After much practice and accumulation of Psychic Power, it was only a matter of time before Ye Yu broke through to a new stage. This time, pushed to a dead end and facing imminent death by fire, the resistance stemming from the essence of life finally allowed the Psychic Power that had been stuck at the threshold to break through, reaching the mid-level of stellar rank.
The world seemed to transform anew; Ye Yu's previously exhausted Mental Power instantly rejuvenated. Even though the pain from before still lingered, his mind was now clear.
Ye Yu did not understand how the Obese Man managed to resist his Psychic Power's influence, but when he had not yet advanced, he could control it for a moment. Now that he had advanced, there was no doubt he could do so again.
All this took time to explain, but just as Ye Yu realized his breakthrough, his Mental Power transformed into a sharp sword and surged toward the Obese Man, who was smiling victoriously.
At that moment, the Obese Man still wore a triumphant smile. He waved his hand, and his expression turned serious. Suddenly, a strong wave of energy radiated from him.
With the intensity of this energy rising, torrents of water began to surge within the room. It seemed as if the water had come to life, rushing toward the raging flames.
More and more people gathered outside on the street, pointing at the ordinary shop still engulfed in flames. Observant individuals noticed that the fire department responsible for this area in Central District had not yet arrived, which seemed quite illogical. After all, this was Central District; response times should not be so slow.
The Thin Man stood not far from the burning area, watching as a woman who had just moments ago looked terrified now wiped away the soot from her face to reveal an enchanting beauty.
"That guy is probably already burned to death!" The Enchanting Woman's eyes gleamed with satisfaction. Just moments ago, she had used her Ability to restrain his body. According to their intelligence, although he possessed powerful Mental Power, his physical skills were only at a basic level and he naturally could not break free from her control.
"The fat guy is out!" The Thin Man's eyes lit up. He understood that while the fat man usually appeared carefree and jovial, he was extremely steady when it came to business. His emergence at this moment indicated that their mission had succeeded.
"Brother Yu!"
The Enchanting Woman's previously worried expression finally relaxed. Although they had collaborated on similar missions many times before, this was their first operation in the core area of the Federation. However, they had already done their homework; whether it was fire or law enforcement officers, they would be delayed by several minutes due to intentional interference from their insiders.
Although it was only a few minutes late, the woman believed that they would surely succeed in killing their target.
"Something's not right!" The Thin Man noticed something off in the Obese Man's expression. Even though their mission had succeeded, how could someone emerge from a sea of flames with such a calm smile?
"There's so much water... the fire is out..." At that moment, the onlookers saw a massive surge of water suddenly erupting from the flames. In an instant, the water engulfed the fire, extinguishing the flames throughout the entire room.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss—" A thick mist of steam rose up, swirling white smoke enveloping the area like clouds.
"Fatty, what's going on?" According to their prior agreement, it was impossible for the Obese Man to extinguish the fire; that would be a fatal flaw in their plan.
The Fatty remained silent, still smiling as he stared in one direction. Of course, at that moment, his perception of the world was not what others saw, and he couldn't see the Thin Man before him.
"Why do you want to kill me?"
A chilling voice rang out behind the Fatty. The Thin Man's face changed dramatically as he instinctively took a step back. However, he did not use his Ability; there were too many onlookers around for him to conceal his identity.
"Arou, trap him!" The Thin Man was baffled by his companions' slow reaction. The enemy he thought was dead had reappeared, indicating mission failure and that his side was now in danger.
"Honey, let's go shopping..." Arou's voice was now genuinely gentle, completely devoid of the coldness it had earlier.
"Sure, I'll buy you a bag today!" The Obese Man immediately responded to Arou, who then linked her arm with his and walked outside.
"This... mental charm... it's impossible... it can't be that you trapped both of us in a virtual world..." The Thin Man looked at Ye Yu as if he were a monster. As a member of the Ability world, he was no stranger to mental-type Abilities. However, controlling two people simultaneously and at different times was something he had never heard of in over twenty years.
Ye Yu did not want to kill anyone, especially since this was the most critical area of the Federation. If he broke the law, he would undoubtedly fall under the scrutiny of the Federal Radiance. However, he needed to clearly understand who his enemies were; otherwise, he would be completely defenseless in the future. Previously, he had attempted to control the Obese Man, but aside from some information from the Tang family, the other vague details were limited to Ye Yu's previous defeat of the Wavebreaker Legion. Yet, this was still insufficient to determine who wanted him dead. If it was the Tang family, what could their motive be?
"If you don't... I'll have to resort to force!" Ye Yu had just controlled the Obese Man and the Enchanting Woman to apply psychological pressure on the Thin Man, hoping he would come forward on his own.
"I..." The Thin Man was now sweating profusely, fear evident in his eyes. He realized he had stepped onto a hot plate. At that moment, he couldn't help but curse those who provided him with information; this person before him was anything but a weak student—he was a demon!
"Everyone unrelated, leave at once!" Just then, a loud shout rang in Ye Yu's ears as several uniformed personnel surrounded them. Behind them were several police cars and fire trucks.
"The police are here; I suppose I won't need to worry anymore!" The Thin Man felt a bit relieved; if Ye Yu attempted to forcibly control him, it would surely attract the attention of the police.
"Really?" Ye Yu smiled slightly, as if they were merely chatting about mundane matters. However, to the Thin Man, that smile felt exceedingly sinister.
