Abnormal Moon

Chapter 206 Incredibly Strong

The moment the surprise attack began, the surrounding world suddenly darkened, as if time itself had stopped.

Claudia's mind raced. What if she swung her twin swords from this angle and this angle simultaneously—

The moment she made this decision, Pandora in her hand showed her the outcome in the next second.

She aimed her twin swords at Ye Chui Wu Chenzhai with a sudden, precise strike. Her swordsmanship was not as refined as Qi Lin's, but its sharpness was in no way inferior. However, when she swung her twin swords, she inexplicably missed, failing to harm her opponent in the slightest. Immediately afterward, Ye Chui Wu Chenzhai reacted, revealing a surprised expression. He turned around, and a flash of cold light appeared in his hand. She felt a pain in her arm and couldn't help but release her grip on the sword.

This method won't work!

Let's try a different approach. If we swing both swords at this angle... it still won't work. We can't hit them, and they'll be taken down with a backhand. The difference in strength between the two sides is huge. We have to gain the upper hand from the very first move. Let's try another approach!

Claudia continued to make predictions, replaying the results in her mind, but as the number of prediction patterns increased, her heart grew heavier and heavier.

Missed!

Failed!

Miss!

No matter how many times she made a prediction, the result was exactly the same.

Ye Chui Wuchenzhai simply stood there, without moving an inch, but her twin swords could not hit him, as if he were not there at all.

Having already tried more than ten modes, with the prediction time exceeding one minute and the available quantity dwindling, Claudia had no choice but to exit the prediction mode.

The moment the prediction mode was exited, the world before his eyes became colorful again. Ye Chui Wuchenzhai was startled by her sudden attack, and a look of surprise was visibly revealed on his face.

Claudia's twin swords suddenly changed direction midway through their swing, darting past Yoruichi no Uchihachi without striking his body—though they couldn't possibly hit him at all.

The look of surprise on Ye Chui Wuchenzhai's face froze, and a moment of confusion appeared in his eyes as he looked at Claudia.

“…Miss Enfield, what were you trying to do just now?”

"I just wanted to test your skills."

Claudia's first move failed, and her white back, covered by her shirt, was already covered in cold sweat. She took several steps back, but an innocent smile appeared on her face.

Ye Chuiwuchenzhai looked at her retreating steps, his old eyes revealing a sharp and vigorous glint.

"Is that so... If you want to test my skills, you can just say so. Why resort to a surprise attack?"

Moreover, the killing intent she displayed the moment she drew her sword was absolutely genuine.

Thinking of this, Yoruichi narrowed his eyes, took a step forward, and suddenly released an amazing sense of pressure, like a sharp knife trying to pierce Claudia's heart.

Claudia was startled; the murderous aura was so palpable that she instinctively retreated rapidly.

"Wouldn't this be a better way to test Lord Wuchenzhai's true strength?"

“That makes sense, but I suddenly realized that the Pandora used by the young lady is a pure Star Radiance weapon that can predict the future.”

Night Breeze Wuchenzhai's gaze fell on the twin swords held by Claudia. The two eyeballs on the hilts, which looked like real objects, emitted a chilling light, one red and one green, like the underworld.

"You activated Pandora just now, anticipated that you couldn't ambush me, and thus decided to change your strategy halfway through, voluntarily abandoning the ambush and feigning cooperation with me..."

Claudia smiled bitterly to herself.

As expected of the galaxy's sharpest blade, he has fought countless battles in his life and is incredibly quick-witted; her little bit of cleverness couldn't escape his notice at all.

"How tragic. You are the daughter of the highest-ranking executive of the conglomerate and have the potential to become the first highest-ranking executive of the conglomerate's Star Pulse Generation. Yet you turn around and launch a surprise attack on me, the old man who is the leader of the conglomerate's combat force. How unwise of you."

Ye Chui Wuchenzhai looked at Claudia, his gaze gradually turning cold.

"Why did you do this? Depending on the circumstances, I could choose not to inform Yinhe."

As long as her reasons are reasonable, it's not unreasonable to treat it as a child's joke.

Claudia paused for a moment upon hearing this, then chuckled softly.

"Why did I do this? To be honest, I don't even understand it myself. If you think I'm stupid, then you can laugh at me all you want, but—I have no intention of taking back this decision!"

"……it's a pity."

Night Breeze Wuchenzhai closed his eyes with pity.

Claudia's actions have infringed upon the interests of the conglomerate. Even if this matter is reported to the highest-ranking executives of the conglomerate, there will only be one answer—kill her.

No top official would raise any objection.

Even her biological mother, Isabella Enfield, would not have hesitated to make the decision to kill her own daughter.

Therefore, he didn't need to hesitate at all.

Just kill Claudia here.

As this thought flashed through his mind, Ye Chui Wuchenzhai reopened his eyes.

At this moment, there was no trace of regret or sympathy left in his eyes; only a chilling killing intent pierced Claudia's heart like a sharp arrow.

Facing that chilling killing intent, Claudia's hair stood on end.

Suddenly, a cold light flashed!

Claudia instantly activated Pandora's ability, entering prediction mode. The world froze again as her brain worked intensely, predicting and evading the situation.

She jumped to the side... No, no, just as she thought she had successfully dodged, the cold light pierced her chest.

Then jump to the opposite side... What, why am I still getting hit?

Could the weapon thrown by Wuchenzhai possibly change direction in mid-air?

Claudia couldn't comprehend the extent of the difference in strength between the two sides, so she could only make further predictions. Finally, on her fifth prediction, she arrived at a result that barely avoided the crucial point.

With less and less time remaining, Claudia had no choice but to exit the prediction and jump out with the last predicted move. As a result, the cold light shot straight at her, grazing her arm and tearing through her uniform, leaving a half-inch deep wound on her arm. The blood that instantly flowed out stained the fabric of the uniform red.

"Shot straight at us? How is that possible?"

Claudia, ignoring her wound, quickly retreated.

At the same time, her gaze fell on the weapon embedded in the wall not far away. It was a kunai commonly used by ninjas. She mentally constructed the direction of the kunai's launch and was surprised to find that the kunai had been launched in a straight line from the very beginning, without turning at all!

She actually managed to dodge a kunai that was shooting straight at her five times, but failed each time.

"...That's terrifying!"

Claudia retreated rapidly, forcing a smile onto her face.

"Seal off the perimeter."

As Ye Chui Wuchenzhai walked towards Claudia, he issued orders without any emotion.

The next moment, a dozen or so dark figures suddenly appeared around him.

Each of those shadowy figures was dressed in the same jet-black uniform as him, making it impossible to distinguish between men and women. Their heads were also covered. After he gave the order, the shadowy figures quickly dispersed to the surrounding area.

As Claudia retreated with a perilous expression, Wuchenzhai remained unfazed. He reached to his waist and a pure black activator appeared in his hand. He infused it with stellar power, transforming it into a staff-shaped weapon.

He raised his tin staff, the tip pointing at Claudia, and with an icy expression, thrust it straight at her!

Chapter 207 Stella Discovered

Deep within the redevelopment zone.

Miss Okita landed on the roof of an abandoned building, then her legs sprang up like springs, quickly taking off and landing on another abandoned building a hundred meters away.

She ignored the shouts of "Slow down!" coming from below.

"They completely disobey human commands!"

Stella weaved through the buildings, trying not to lose them, and couldn't help but let out a wail.

She began to miss the teammates that President Petora had given her before.

Although the "Dance God" senior also likes to talk to himself, at least he will listen to what others say. But Ms. Okita, once she decides to do something, she won't listen to a word. Once she's got the energy, not even ten horses can pull her back!

Damn it, why are all the teammates she encounters in this world like this?

Although she had never teamed up in her own world or her own country, and was originally planning to study abroad in Japan, she found herself in this world the moment she opened her eyes...

"Lost?"

Stella noticed Ms. Okita hopping and skipping on the rooftop, but then she didn't see Ms. Okita jump out. Thinking she had lost her, she quickly jumped up onto the wall.

Once she reached the rooftop, she realized that she hadn't lost Ms. Okita; rather, Ms. Okita had stopped walking on her own initiative.

Saying it stopped voluntarily isn't quite right.

Several figures dressed in black appeared in front of Ms. Okita.

"So Japan really does have ninjas!"

Stella muttered something and quickly ran towards Souji. Although she was indignant, she had to stand up for her sister at this moment!

"Why is there another one?"

On the other side, one of the black-clad ninjas, who appeared to be the leader, frowned.

"Forget it, let's deal with them first, then we can set up the barrier!"

The three men in black beside him nodded silently. Two of them then went to attack Stella, who was chasing after them, while the leader and another man drew their weapons and confronted Ms. Okita.

Stella was stunned for a moment when she saw two ninjas rushing towards her with murderous intent. Then she frowned and reached out her hands. Flames surged from her hands like a vortex, and a golden greatsword materialized in the blink of an eye and was held in her hand.
