Chapter 33
“There is a battle between Espers on the streets of Changqing. Heroes nearby, please move out to reinforce!”
Blazing Butterfly switched off the alarm on her Hero’s communicator. She happened to be eating a hotpot nearby today.
“Ah, what should I do? What do I do with the tender beef slices that just got served up?!”
“Don’t clear the table ( ̄~ ̄)!”
Before she could swallow the tender beef slices on her plate, Blazing Butterfly hurriedly took off her shoes and flew to the scene with her flaming wings fully extended on her back.
“Quick, quick, quick, Blazing Butterfly is rushing to the scene!”
When she arrived at the scene, she only saw Yang Xi insta-killing the yellow-haired guy. There was a long scar measuring several dozen meters on the street.
“This… this is probably not a battle that I can participate in! This damn Hero’s communicator actually didn’t inform me about the enemy’s disaster level!”
“Calamity Grade-A. Heroes below Grade-B, please consider whether to provide support!”
Blazing Butterfly silently pressed the alarm on her communicator. At this point, she also recognized that one of the parties involved was the mysterious person she had met earlier.
“Luckily, I ran fast the last time. This uncle is really too strong!”
“Hmm?! There are still citizens around the battlefield!”
The sharp-eyed Blazing Butterfly quickly discovered Qian Duoduo, who was frantically jumping around at the edge of the battlefield. Thankfully, Yang Xi had managed to attract Snow Maiden’s attention by killing Sasaki with a single slash of his saber. Otherwise, she would definitely have been beaten to a pulp by Snow Maiden.
“This citizen who unfortunately got involved in the Esper battle, please don’t be afraid. Cherry Blossoms Management Agency’s Grade-C Hero, Blazing Butterfly, is here to save you! (^ _ −)!”
According to the agency’s request, Blazing Butterfly presented a perfect pose in front of the townsfolk.
Blazing Butterfly, I, am amazing!
This little girl will definitely be smitten by me!
“Hey, auntie, if you want to posture, please move a little to the side. Don’t block me from watching the Esper battle! Wow, as expected of uncle West Chicken. He can kill Espers instantly!”
Qian Duoduo looked at the confrontation between Yang Xi and Snow Maiden with excitement on her face. At the same time, her mind raced as she thought about how she would be able to earn another fortune from uncle West Chicken.
Eh, why am I thinking of making a fortune? I’m the one who owes him money.
Blazing Butterfly: “(;OдO)!”
“A… aunty?”
Yan Die quickly took out a mirror and looked at her reflection with the corner of her eyes. Hmm, there were no fishtail markings, and her nasal lines weren’t obvious either. She then looked at her slim waist. There wasn’t a trace of excess fat. This smooth thigh, this fair skin… is this airstrip chest girl blind!!!
“Don’t be angry, don’t be angry, I must remain dignified. The fans can see it! The drones for the Hero Live Broadcast are here too!”
Yan Die smiled coldly and grabbed Qian Duoduo by the clothes before flying out of the arena.
“Hello, everyone. Welcome to the Hero Live Broadcast. I’m Hat Emperor!”
“I’m Coach Ge!”
“Today, we’re actually looking at a fierce battle between two Espers on Changqing street, the capital of Deer Harbor. What do you think, Coach Ge?” Hat Emperor paused for a moment and threw the topic to Coach Ge.
It couldn’t be helped. The battle between Espers was different from fighting against the invasion of Mystic Beasts. Official information on Heroes was readily available, and their battle results could be calculated very quickly. Mystic Beasts would also have their corresponding information. Even if they were new Mystic Beast breeds, they could make guesses from their abilities and size. Perhaps if their analysis was good enough, they could even name the new Mystic Beasts.
However, it was different when unknown Espers fought. They were different from Heroes. They did not have their official information, and they did not know what Esper Abilities they had. Furthermore, they had all sorts of reasons for fighting. To the commentators, this was indeed a very troublesome problem.
Especially since Hat Emperor was previously only a basketball player. He had only made it this far by memorizing the information of Heroes and Mystic Beasts for a long time. Now, he could only rely on his senior Ge to lead the way.
Coach Ge naturally understood the situation of Hat Emperor. He calmly took a sip of tea and moistened his throat. Just when the comments were getting more intense and impatient, did he slowly say, “The backgrounds of the two sides in today’s battle are unknown, so I can only slowly analyze their identities.”
“Everyone, don’t be anxious. Let’s begin by looking at the first Esper who died in this battle.”
The director followed Coach Ge’s commentary and focused on Sasaki’s body which already had the gory parts censored.
“Look at his weapon. It’s one of the more popular samurai swords in District Six. I have insider news that the Sakura Group in District Six has infiltrated Deer Harbor City recently. I’m sure it’s these people.”
“Now that we’ve found their organization, let’s compare it with the recent news in District Six. This Esper who was slashed through at the waist should be Sasaki, who is known as Sun Moon Tri-Sword Flow. He is a Grade-C Esper who once defeated three Grade-C Heroes in District Six. It is said that he is only a step away from Grade-B.”
There was a hint of regret in Coach Ge’s words as he said this.
Hat Emperor quickly interrupted, “I didn’t expect that such a strong Esper who was about to become a Grade-B would die in a foreign land.”
Coach Ge continued, “By following the clues, we can also obtain the identities of the other two visitors from District Six. They are the Grade-C Esper, Shadowmeld Nairang and the Grade-A Esper, Snow Maiden, Aoi Matsushima.”
Hat Emperor took a deep breath. “So this battle is between the two Espers of Sakura Group and the man in black. One of them is even a Grade-A?”
Coach Ge nodded. “However, the reason he could kill Sun Moon Tri-Sword Flow should be because of the Mystic Beast armament in his hands!”
The director immediately zoomed in on the Cursed Blade Murasama in Yang Xi’s hand.
Coach Ge instantly lost his cool. “This… This is actually the S-grade Mystic Beast armament of the Sakura Group, Cursed Blade Murasama!”
“This weapon was personally crafted by Alchemist Damon!”
Hat Emperor took the documents from the staff behind him and said, “You may not be familiar with the great Alchemist Damon, so I’ll add a bit of information. Those who have heard of him, please be patient. After all, there are always new viewers!”
Under the barrage of “Don’t read it!” comments, Hat Emperor shamelessly continued to read. This way, he could seize a lot of time.
Coach Ge didn’t seem to mind. He happily continued to observe the confrontation between the two opposing sides as he thought about what to say next.
“Alchemist Damon invented the key technology ‘Alchemy Array’ with his own power for crafting Mystic Beast armaments. With the Alchemy Array, he was able to get rid of the awkward situation where Mystic Beast armaments relied solely on the hardness of the Mystic Beast materials and he truly made use of the residual power left on the body of the Mystic Beasts.
“This Cursed Blade Murasama was made from the dragon tooth of the S-rank Mystic Beast, the Cloud Devouring Wyrm. Thanks to the Alchemy Array created by Alchemist Damon, this precious Mystic Beast material was able to display its original strength.”
After waiting patiently for Hat Emperor to finish his sentence, Coach Ge continued, “As for the other side of the battle, I’m sure the friends who like to watch videos of Deer Harbor City should be very familiar with him. He’s the masked man in black who slapped Mechanical Battle Hero’s second son 18 times.”
“Alright, after the Grade-C Hero Blazing Butterfly arrived, a Grade-A Hero has finally appeared. The situation will probably be under control very soon.”
As Coach Ge’s voice rang out, two Grade-A Heroes from Kunlun Corporation appeared behind Snow Maiden together.
Yang Xi knew that things were not looking good. He did not expect three Grade-A experts to appear this time. Could it be that he was going to use up his Rebirth ability today?
This Qian Duoduo was really a troublemaker!
