212: Do you think that if you can deal with super-powered people, you can deal with me?

In the dark of night, Tian Ming's figure approached the First Team like a ghost. Suddenly, Tian Ming felt his head buzz, and everything went blank.

In just an instant, his body detached from its ethereal state. Lisa saw Tian Ming appear and immediately moved closer to him. In the darkness, all of the Energy Hunting Squad's laser weapons automatically locked on, and over a dozen lasers aimed at Tian Ming, firing simultaneously.

Lasers cut through the darkness, and Tian Ming immediately felt his vision go white. The air density changed with his will, and instantly, the dozen or so lasers veered off course.

At the same time, the surrounding air pressure rapidly dropped, and a massive Nitrogen Bomb appeared in mid-air.

Tian Ming's body immediately solidified, and he charged towards the First Team's location.

Boom!

With a loud explosion, flames shot into the sky, and the powerful blast overturned the surrounding ground.

However, in this explosion, Tian Ming did not suffer any harm. His body quickly became ethereal, and the shockwave directly tore apart the three members of the First Team.

Lisa angrily said, "What's going on? Why can't the lasers kill him? Why can he still release his superpower even when interfered with by sub-sonic waves?"

Tian Ming gave Lisa no chance. He turned around and quickly approached the Second Team. The air instantly ionized with a crackling sound, and before the Second Team members could escape, they were directly struck by several thick arcs of electricity.

Seeing this, Lisa immediately activated her protective shield and prepared to unleash a sub-sonic wave attack. However, Tian Ming's speed was astonishing.

Boom.

A flash of light, followed by another violent explosion. The Third Team members reacted extremely quickly, but they were still knocked over by the shockwave. Before they could even catch their breath, countless metal projectiles, like hundreds of Gatling guns firing simultaneously, rained down.

Even with their mechs for protection, these projectiles, within a 20-meter control range, had been accelerated to five times the speed of sound. Their mechs were torn to shreds by the powerful kinetic energy carried by the projectiles.

"Team members, retreat, retreat!" Lisa was terrified. She realized that Tian Ming's strength far exceeded her imagination. His speed and reactions had reached a terrifying level.

This person before her was not an Ability User; he was a god, a true god. Just as Lisa was about to escape, a figure flashed in the air, and Tian Ming had already appeared in front of her.

Crack, her mech disintegrated in an instant, turning into metal powder.

"You can't kill me, I am from the Lawrence Family!" Lisa immediately shouted in Chinese.

Tian Ming's expression turned cold, and black carbon fibers wrapped around her like venomous snakes, binding her tightly. Out of the 15 members of the Energy Hunting Squad, Tian Ming had eliminated 11 in just one and a half minutes, and the captain, Lisa, was captured alive. The remaining three had long since fled, and Tian Ming did not pursue them.

Tian Ming glanced at Lisa, who was tightly bound by carbon fibers, and brought her back to the Shelter. Without interference, the Shelter used a temporary hotspot to restore communications.

Tian Ming touched his earpiece: "Meng Xian, tally the personnel and material losses. I've caught a leader. I want them to compensate us a hundredfold."

Life Origins' actions were already a blatant provocation. But they had made a wrong judgment about their own strength. Although this team's coordination was impeccable, and even a Superpower User would have been helpless when attacked by dozens of lasers and their consciousness interfered with by sub-sonic waves, the methods that could deal with a Superpower User could not deal with Tian Ming.

After Tian Ming brought Lisa back to the Shelter, Shen Yuan immediately came over. When she saw that it was a blonde, blue-eyed woman, she immediately became a bit displeased.

"Boss, why did you catch a woman? And a beautiful foreign woman at that?"

"She said she's from the Lawrence Family or something. We need someone to pay for our losses, right? Come with me to interrogate her and see how big this fish is."

Shen Yuan rolled her eyes and said, "You go interrogate her, you like that kind!"

Tian Ming frowned and said, "What do you mean, 'like that kind'? If I interrogate, I interrogate."

Tian Ming brought Lisa to the interrogation room inside the Shelter. Tian Ming sat on the interrogation chair, turned on the bright spotlight on the wall, and illuminated Lisa from head to toe.

Tian Ming spoke into his earpiece: "Doggy, bring a pair of electronic leg irons."

"Yes."

Soon, Doggy brought a pair of electronic leg irons and cuffed them to Lisa's feet. Electronic leg irons were a special kind of torture device, primarily used to punish individuals with pulse currents.

"Boss, this girl is beautiful," Doggy said with a chuckle.

Doggy had rarely participated in management during this period. It seemed that because Xiao Qian was pregnant, coupled with his own marginalization, he was no longer as active as before.

Tian Ming glared at Doggy: "Isn't your wife pregnant? And you still dare to look at other women."

Doggy was stunned. After cuffing Lisa, he stood up: "Boss, how did you know about Xiao Qian's pregnancy?"

"Of course I know. Ji Ruping said that during this time, you've been quite resentful and not as active as before." Tian Ming sat in the chair, looking at Doggy.

Doggy's expression darkened a bit, and he said, "Boss, my abilities can't keep up. I've disappointed you. The Shelter has become standardized, and many things have corresponding rules. As for me, I have no culture, no abilities. Many of the great experts, I can't even get them to come."

Tian Ming could tell that Doggy wasn't being inactive, but rather, he felt a significant psychological gap.

"Alright, after I finish the interrogation, we'll talk. You're also a veteran of the Shelter; you shouldn't be so negative."

Doggy didn't speak. He just nodded slightly, then walked out of the interrogation room.

Tian Ming then turned his head to Lisa and asked, "What's your name?"

"Lawrence Lisa!"

Tian Ming frowned and said, "Have you lived here before? Your Chinese sounds quite fluent."

Lisa looked coldly at Tian Ming: "I speak six languages. According to your official standards, I am a Superpower User."

Tian Ming sneered: "Superpower Users are trash in my eyes. You are from the Lawrence Family behind Life Origins, aren't you?"

Lisa lowered her head. She could feel her ability being suppressed by Tian Ming, so she had no choice but to concede: "Yes, I am Duke Lawrence's daughter. And also the only Superpower User in the family who evolved through the Super Serum."

Tian Ming pondered for a moment. This was a big fish. The value of a Superpower User herself was hard to estimate, let alone a key member of a top family. Now, he could use this to extort a good sum.

Tian Ming sneered: "Very good, the young lady has arrived to help the poor. I was just worrying about who would bear my losses, but now that I have you, I'm no longer worried."

Lisa's expression changed: "What do you mean?"

"Nothing much. I just want to see how much a top family is willing to pay to redeem you!"
