The Last Commander of the Red Alert

Chapter 560: Astonishing Potential

It was evident that the elder from the Ghost Clan was deeply intrigued by Libra's power, the very power that had nearly killed him.

The expression on the elder's face made it seem as though he wished to consume Libra right then and there.

Just as Libra was preparing to continue using her Psychic power, a mere glance from the Ghost Clan elder sent a shiver down her spine, a sensation of impending doom that froze her in place.

Her body was immobilized, but Psychic power required no physical movement. Libra attempted to use her Psychic power again, aiming to deliver a fatal blow to the Ghost Clan elder.

However, this time, the elder merely coughed up blood but did not die.

Libra was truly at a loss now. She had depleted her Psychic power completely and still couldn't kill the formidable Ghost Clan elder. His strength was simply overwhelming.

"Hehe, your power is impressive, but it seems you've used up most of it," the Ghost Clan elder remarked, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth as he fixed his sinister eyes on Libra.

Yet, he seemed to have forgotten about someone else's presence.

At some point, Wang Chun suddenly appeared behind the Ghost Clan elder and struck with a powerful punch.

Wang Chun's fist indeed struck the elder, leaving a small wound, but it quickly healed in the blink of an eye.

"Such incredible resilience!" Wang Chun exclaimed.

With his level of strength, he could barely break through the elder's defenses. The elder's physical constitution was truly abnormal.

"You're still not dead? Your constitution is indeed impressive. You're of no use to me for now, so stay put," the Ghost Clan elder declared.

In the next moment, Wang Chun was once again sent crashing into the ground, this time with even more severe injuries, rendering him completely immobile.

A first-tier Small Galaxy expert, helpless in the presence of the Ghost Clan elder, was a scenario beyond imagination. This marked the first defeat for Su Chen's Super Soldiers, with Wang Chun incapacitated and Libra's Psychic power exhausted, leaving them unable to resist.

"Commander, please..." Just as Libra was about to request reinforcements from the Commander, her vision suddenly darkened. Her primary consciousness faded, and her secondary consciousness took over!

It had always been her primary consciousness that dominated, making this the first instance of her secondary consciousness taking the lead.

"That old codger doesn't seem like much fun," the secondary consciousness of Libra observed the Ghost Clan elder with a disinterested expression.

The Ghost Clan elder furrowed his brow slightly, unsure why he felt a hint of threat from this human woman. How could that be possible?

In Ghost Clan history, he was unquestionably the strongest, and he had absolute confidence in his power.

"Regardless of who you are, once you're in my grasp, your power will inevitably be mine," the Ghost Clan elder declared, taking slow, deliberate steps toward Libra, the fiery determination still ablaze in his eyes.

Just as the Ghost Clan elder was about to seize Libra by the throat, something unexpected happened.

In the blink of an eye, Libra's figure vanished from where she had been standing. There was no trace of her in the vicinity.

The Ghost Clan elder was left stupefied. With his formidable power, he couldn't detect where Libra had gone. Where had she disappeared to?

Throughout the battle, Libra had never used her evolved ability, known as Psychic Mirage.

With the power of Psychic, she could create a duplicate of herself, while her true self remained concealed in the shadows.

The Ghost Clan elder had never encountered such a peculiar ability before. He couldn't even attempt to stop it, as Libra had simply vanished.

The secondary consciousness of Libra was the true Witch, a Super Soldier who disregarded the lives of others.

Suddenly, the Ghost Clan elder's body trembled, freezing in place. Simultaneously, Libra, concealed in the shadows, found herself immobilized as well. For a brief moment, an eerie calm settled over the scene.

Libra immediately tapped into her remaining sliver of Psychic power, invading the Ghost Clan elder's psyche, attempting to breach his defenses from within.

Typically, she seldom employed this method, opting instead for direct Psychic control or Psychic attacks. Entering someone's mind with Psychic power carried significant risks.

In the blink of an eye, Libra discovered herself in a dimly lit place that resembled a cave.

"Almost there, as long as I can complete this, I will become the savior of the Ghost Clan!" a slightly manic voice reached Libra's ears.

She stealthily approached to investigate and found a young Ghost Clan member deeply engrossed in some activity. Beside him lay a luminous stone.

"No, still not right. What's the problem?" The young Ghost Clan member appeared visibly frustrated.

Libra made no effort to conceal her presence as she approached the young Ghost Clan member. Even so, he remained oblivious to her.

Libra watched curiously as the young Ghost Clan member worked with a Ghost Clan skull before him. Each time his fingers made contact, a faint glimmer of light appeared, an inexplicable phenomenon.

After observing for a while, Libra finally spoke up, "You made a mistake in your last step."

"Ah!" The young Ghost Clan member was visibly startled. He hadn't expected to have a... human being beside him?

Why was there a human here?

"What's your name?" Libra asked calmly.

She knew that her presence here was not coincidental; this young Ghost Clan member must be related to the Ghost Clan elder.

Libra was well aware that every individual's inner world was unique.

"I... I'm called Cangdi." The young Ghost Clan member's gaze remained fixed on Libra's forehead, where there was nothing.

"What are you doing?"

"I... I can't say." The young Ghost Clan member attempted to sound resolute.

Unfortunately, in the presence of Libra, all his intentions were in vain. She needed only a tiny fraction of Psychic power to acquire the information she sought.

"I didn't expect him to be the genius who created the Ghost Patterns Virus in Ghost Clan history. In that case..." A stunning realization dawned on Libra. "The old Ghost Clan man is this young boy?"

Libra fell into silence. She had no idea how long the history of the Ghost Clan stretched, but it could span tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of years. In such circumstances, how had a young Ghost Clan member managed to survive for so long?

"Commander, there's a new discovery," Libra decisively contacted Su Chen. (To be continued)
