Chapter 12 – Let go, one punch KO
Not only Wei Chuan and the Sky Eye Commissioners on the scene, but even the Extraordinary Being called Shadow, who was hiding nearby and leading the invasion, was stunned.
He had released the Cunning Beast to cover his teammates' retreat, and was about to turn and run. But just before leaving, he glanced back and his heart stopped.
What kind of terrifying power was that!?
He wasn't sure about the exact strength of the Cunning Beast, but it definitely wasn't something that could be easily dealt with. Even if some higher-ranked Extraordinary Beings arrived, according to the plan, they should have been able to buy enough time for them to escape.
But this... what kind of operation was it to kill the beast with one punch?
The lower half of the Cunning Beast's shattered body fell to the ground, while the upper half turned into fragments and blood, scattering in a radial pattern in the direction of the punch. The scene was extremely shocking, assaulting everyone's eyes.
Witnessing this scene, Shadow suddenly shuddered and thought of something.
That's right, the Extraordinary Being who caught the falling plane with his bare hands...
When he had only heard the news before, he already found it unbelievable. Now, witnessing it with his own eyes, the shock was even more indescribable.
He couldn't understand. It was well known that humans had limits, and no matter how much their bodies mutated or strengthened, they were still carbon-based lifeforms that followed basic rules.

However, the appearance of this red-caped Extraordinary Being seemed to rub those basic rules in the dirt, challenging the entire existing system of the Extraordinary world with his very existence.
It was terrifying!
He must not...
...Oh, I can't beat him, so it's fine.
Without hesitation, Shadow turned and ran.
He would have to be out of his mind to go and provoke this thing. All he wanted now was to get as far away from this place and this humanoid monster as possible. Being caught by this thing was no joke.
In addition to the Cunning Beast, he had also brought a fully armed action team on this raid. They were a group of people without Extraordinary powers but had received modern military training. They had absolute loyalty and faith in the Prayer Meeting, believing that they were dedicating themselves to a higher existence beyond humanity.
The team had initially created chaos by engaging in a firefight at the southwest corner of the camp, but they had only maintained their distance and carried out a fire harassment, focusing on drawing attention. When the Cunning Beast was released, the small team had already retreated in the chaos, and by now, they should have run quite a distance.
Now that Shadow had obtained what he came for, as long as he could escape, the mission could still be considered a success. Moreover, if he could escape from this freakish Extraordinary Being, he believed that he would have made a significant contribution.
There was just one small problem.
The red-caped Extraordinary Being who had killed the Cunning Beast with one punch seemed to have deliberately turned his head... and looked in his direction.
...
"There's one more, at your three o'clock... Yes, the one in the shadow, do you see him?" Xiao Qi said while sitting on Jiang Bei's sofa, munching on corn. "Take him down, and it's another wave of income."
However, as Jiang Bei turned his head to look, Shadow had already desperately dived into the shadow on the ground.
"Uh... did you see what I just saw? This guy seems to have just dived into the shadow on the ground?" Jiang Bei raised an eyebrow. "How do I catch him?"
"Just go into the shadow and pull him out, right?" Xiao Qi said matter-of-factly.
"...Can I do that?"
Jiang Bei hesitated, then suddenly blurred. Everyone saw his body disappear into thin air, and in the next frame, he had already appeared at the shadow, reaching out to grab the shadow on the ground.
To his surprise, Jiang Bei's grab didn't pass through the ground as he had thought. The moment his fingers touched the shadow, he felt as if he was grabbing into water, with a cold liquid swirling around his fingers.
He seemed to touch something like clothing in that fluid, and without thinking, he grabbed it tightly and pulled with force.
A screaming Shadow was pulled out of the shadow by his collar, held in Jiang Bei's hand like a small chicken, his face full of fear and confusion.
Wei Chuan was also dumbfounded.
Was this person... directly pulling the opponent out of the shadow?
Was there such an operation?
Including Shadow himself, everyone was completely stunned, their minds feeling like they were covered in a thick paste, getting more and more confused.
No, this is impossible!
He felt as if his own reason was screaming at him, as if every cell in his body was roaring "impossible" in his ears.
Being pulled out of the shadow state was something unheard of in the entire history of the Extraordinary. Unless the opponent had the same type of Extraordinary power as him, there was no way they could attack him hiding in the shadows.
But it had indeed happened.
He looked at the face in front of him, with delicate and handsome features, exuding a scholarly air. But as he looked at this gentle face, he couldn't help but tremble in fear.
What kind of monster had he encountered?
"Don't forget, there's another team." Xiao Qi reminded Jiang Bei in his ear. "They left from the southwest corner, about 1.3 or 1.4 kilometers away, in a military off-road transport vehicle."@@novelbin@@
"Understood."
Jiang Bei precisely controlled his strength, knocked out Shadow with a single hand chop, and then "bang" took off into the sky, creating a transparent air circle that shot straight into the clouds.
Almost in an instant, everyone in the camp watched him fly back... with a military transport vehicle in his hand.
He casually threw the transport vehicle on the ground, as if it was a worn-out cardboard box. The thick armored car door was crushed and deformed by his single hand, and with a clang, it was torn off entirely.
The terrified terrorists inside the vehicle were stunned for a few seconds, then, following someone's lead, they threw their guns out one by one, jumped out of the car, put their hands on their heads, and lay down on the ground in a line, not daring to move, as obedient as grandsons.
After finishing, Jiang Bei smiled and waved to the bewildered soldiers around him, then soared into the sky again, disappearing into the night.
Wei Chuan stared blankly at the disappearing black dot in the night sky, opening and closing his mouth, but only making "ah ba ah ba" sounds.
Who exactly... was this Extraordinary Being?
...
...
In the dark room, a door was pushed open from the outside.
The man was still sitting in his sofa, facing his LCD monitor.
The woman entered from the outside and stood behind the sofa.
"We got the item," she said, "but none of them made it back. The entire action team was captured."
The man in the sofa suddenly sat up straight.
"What happened?" The man frowned. "Shadow couldn't make it back either? But his ability..."
"Yes, he was captured too. This was indeed beyond our initial expectations."
The man was silent for a moment, then continued, "What about the Cunning Beast? You said it was ready, right?"
"Yeah. It was released, but it was killed with one punch."
The man: "?"
He twisted his head from the sofa, and his vague expression in the dim TV light seemed to have a hint of the black man question mark meme.
"It was that Extraordinary Being from last time. He appeared again. He punched the Cunning Beast in half, and then pulled Shadow, who was in hiding, out of the shadows."
The man: "???"
What do you think?
