Witch Special

The octopus alien, who was killed instantly by Saitama's "ordinary throw", melted on the spot, leaving the bystander Lin Zhenxi stunned.

Wow, these alien octopuses are different. They don’t even leave a body when they die.

Lin Zhenxi always felt that Saitama might be the "protagonist" of this world, otherwise, it would be impossible to explain the things he experienced.

No matter how powerful the enemy, how flashy the attacks, or how full the special effects, they ultimately can't withstand his ordinary blows. On one side, there's a dazzling spectacle, and on the other, there's the simple, graffiti-inspired art. What do you call this? It's called contrast, or contrasting cuteness.

Whether it is Saitama's sudden change in image when he is serious, or the sharp contrast between his nonchalant attitude towards battle and the enemy's full efforts, it gives people a feeling that "he is indeed the special one."

These people are usually the "protagonists." They are the darlings of the world, the center of a world, the eye of the storm of all events. As long as the "protagonist" is present, almost everyone else will be reduced to supporting roles on the stage.

Although it sounds outrageous, such people do exist. At least in the worlds Lin Zhenxi had visited before, she had encountered several such "moving trouble magnets." Without exception, they all had a unique aura that made others revolve around them, and trouble kept coming their way, almost without interruption.

Although Saitama has never been entangled in trouble due to his strong strength, his unique temperament cannot be faked. This guy may be the "protagonist" of the current world.

But Saitama is a time traveler... and he is an "alien" who has been here for more than ten years but still has not been assimilated by this world.

It's like having something in your body that shouldn't be there. The discomfort is minor, but the infection is the scariest. For health reasons, surgery is usually performed to remove the foreign object. So, the most normal approach in this world would be to kill Saitama, so why was he chosen as the "protagonist"?

To say there was no chance of attack was absolutely impossible. Because the flow of time in this world was different from that in the main world, Saitama had actually been in this world for a long time. According to Saitama's own description, before he started training, he was just an ordinary person, his physical fitness even inferior to those of professionally trained athletes.

It would have been easier for the world to kill him than to crush an ant, but Saitama's life was peaceful at that time. He went to school, went to work, and lived a peaceful life just like any of us. Until the monsters started to appear, Saitama finally decided to stop living in a daze and do something for the world. He began his own "Saitama Training Method", and his strength grew rapidly.

Throughout the entire process, the will of the world seemed to have never done anything to Saitama. Instead, it later developed great malice towards the humans in this world.

It is incomprehensible. The will of an abnormal world has done things that normal people cannot guess.

Just when Lin Zhenxi was having wild thoughts again, some new situations seemed to have occurred on Saitama's side.

After Saitama killed the octopus alien, he did not leave in a hurry.

This room looked like a central control room, so it was likely to contain a map or layout diagram of the ship. Saitama didn't want to run around like a headless chicken if there was a way. He was still thinking about Lin Zhenxi's instructions, so he planned to look for a map or something to find the ship's power room.

Just as Saitama began to rummage through the drawers looking for something, behind him, at the place where the octopus alien died, spots of light suddenly began to emerge.

After these tiny points of light appeared, they were drawn by some mysterious force and began to converge towards a single point in the center. As more and more points of light gathered, their brightness began to increase, finally catching the attention of Saitama, who was squatting on the ground rummaging through a cabinet. As Saitama turned around, Hayashi Maki finally caught a glimpse of the scene behind him.

Something that looked like an embryo was floating in mid-air, rapidly expanding in size.

"What is that?" Lin Zhenxi thought curiously as he looked at the strange bean-shaped object.

But it was clear that this thing wasn't a pushover. Just as Saitama was trying to figure out what this glowing object was, two dark eyes suddenly opened from the embryo's surface. Then, a savage opening was ripped from the embryo's surface, transforming into a mouth that roared with unbridled force.

The All-Seeing Eye could not transmit the sound, but the roar of the embryo set off a shock wave visible to the naked eye. One could guess without hearing the sound that the cry of the embryo must have been very harsh.

As the embryo roared, its body was also rapidly differentiating. In a few breaths, it grew tender arms and a tail fin like a mermaid. In an instant, it changed from an embryo to the appearance of a baby, and it was also a big-headed baby with an overdeveloped brain.

At the same time, a circle like an angel appeared above the baby's head.

"What the hell is this..." Lin Zhenxi decided to continue watching.

The baby's development did not continue. With the emergence of the angel ring, the baby's growth came to a halt. Then, a large number of mental tentacles began to grow from the baby's surface, frantically lashing out at everything around it.

The baby initially had no specific target in mind; it was intent on causing destruction. Its frantic, whirling tentacles tore everything in the central control room to shreds in the blink of an eye. After destroying every visible object, Saitama, the only person still standing, immediately became the baby's target.

The baby's attack looked quite monotonous, with nothing special about it except for the numerous mental tentacles. Saitama took a few lashes from the tentacles, and when he realized that his clothes weren't even torn, he simply ignored them. Despite the constant attacks from the tentacles, he walked directly in front of the baby and punched it.

Then, it passed through the baby's body, and nothing happened...

Saitama seemed surprised as well and punched the baby a few more times, but the baby was like a projection and was not affected by Saitama's attacks at all.

But the baby's psychic tentacles were real, still whipping Saitama's body furiously. Furthermore, the tentacles' abilities were rapidly changing. Perhaps realizing that ordinary psychic tentacles were ineffective against Saitama, they began to change their tactics, dividing into many different types. Some were flaming and electrified, some were frozen, and some were so elastic they tried to tie Saitama up, instantly turning the scene into a chaotic mess.

However, these attacks still had little effect on Saitama. His body was strong and had no weaknesses. Even if those mental tentacles used all their strength, they could not do anything to him.

The real problem is that he can't touch the baby at all. No matter how strong and indestructible his fists are, if the other party is like the moon in the well or the flower in the water, visible but not touchable, then he will have no way to deal with it.

On the contrary, Lin Zhenxi was very worried. Saitama's body was strong and could withstand beatings and would not be injured, but his clothes were not so strong.

The All-Seeing Eye's magic pattern was left on Saitama's clothes. Although the clothes were specially made for Saitama by the Hero Association and were very tough, they certainly had their limits. This baby's attacks were not only varied but also very powerful. If Saitama's clothes were damaged, she wouldn't be able to see what he was doing.

Moreover, Lin Zhenxi seemed to have figured out what this baby was, at least it was something similar.

It was some kind of strange magical parasite that Lin Zhenxi had seen in the wizarding world. It would only appear in young wizards who were extremely talented but had suppressed their magical powers for a long time.

Due to lack of guidance, they do not know what their own power is, and have not learned to harness and control it. Instead, they blindly suppress and become hostile to their own power. As a result, their power creates a dark self-consciousness in their bodies, turning it into a dangerous and extremely unstable black magic force.

When those young wizards are unable to suppress the power that grows with age due to emotional excitement or serious physical injuries, this power will erupt, take over and manipulate the young wizards' bodies, madly venting energy to the surroundings, destroying everything that can be destroyed until it finally destroys itself.

They are called dark ghosts, commonly known as "Silent".

Obscurus are both magical and energetic creatures. They lack a physical form. When at rest, they resemble a magnetic fluid in a steady-state magnetic field. When they erupt, they transform into a violent black tornado. This doesn't match the image of the baby before Saitama, so Hayashi Maki initially didn't recognize it.

Moreover, "Obscura" is a purely magical creature. How could Obscura exist in this world without mystery? This was Lin Zhenxi's preconceived idea.

However, magical power and spiritual power are actually connected. Perhaps some things exist not only in magic but also in spiritual power. The Obscurus is a monster formed by uncontrolled magical power. So, if magical power is replaced by spiritual power, would a disembodied monster with supernatural powers that can be wielded at will also appear?

Lin Zhenxi believes that there is nothing wrong with his speculation. What Saitama is facing now is a spiritual version of "Obstros".

A ball of mental energy that is running wild... What a good thing.
