Chapter 465: Because I am the European Emperor!
Chapter 465: Because I am the European Emperor!
In this moment, Su Chen felt like time had been infinitely extended. Wang Chun's menacing expression, his mouth full of sharp teeth, and even his bad breath were all crystal clear to Su Chen.
"Hmm, should I just use teleportation to escape right now?" Su Chen seriously contemplated.
Even though it was his first time encountering such a situation, Su Chen remained remarkably calm. He knew that this was a phenomenon that occurred when Psychic abilities reached a certain level.
Currently, the Psychic technology at Red Alert Base had successfully reached version 5.0, which allowed one's consciousness to briefly pause at a particular moment. While it sounded impressive, it was a passive ability that only triggered when Su Chen was in mortal danger.
During this moment, time would be extended, though not infinitely. It could extend for about ten minutes.
During this moment, Su Chen's consciousness would become incredibly active, with his thoughts multiplying thousands of times, leading to this situation.
Even though it was a life-or-death moment, Su Chen still had the leisure to observe Wang Chun's condition.
However, Su Chen quickly dismissed his initial thought. Teleportation could indeed help him evade the danger, but how could a Commander like him do something so unimpressive?
So, should he confront it head-on?
The idea wasn't bad, but how would he go about it?
Su Chen was aware of his own limitations. He only had Ninth-level Peak strength, and his combat experience was practically non-existent. Facing Wang Chun head-on would likely not end well for him.
Getting defeated would be a blow to his Commander status.
In the brief moment that passed, Su Chen considered many different methods, but he ruled them all out one by one. Finally, he thought of a way that was truly impressive: using the European Emperor possession, one of his permissions!
"European Emperor possession!"
A golden light flashed, and Su Chen suddenly felt that nothing in the world could harm him. As the European Emperor, he exuded confidence!
In an instant, as Wang Chun's teeth were about to touch Su Chen's neck, Wang Chun's body froze, convulsing in mid-air. His legs, in particular, collided with the armrest of Su Chen's chair, causing excruciating pain to shoot through his entire body.
"Ah!"
After a miserable scream, Wang Chun's body fell to the floor by Su Chen's feet, and Su Chen remained completely unharmed from start to finish.
The three Super Soldiers were all stunned. What had just happened?
Su Chen sat in his chair, unruffled and composed. In reality, he marveled at how the European Emperor possession was a game-changing tool that could save him in such situations.
Wang Chun was bewildered by his own actions. What had just happened? How could he convulse like that when he had been perfectly fine moments ago? He was a Ninth-level Peak Ghost Clan; spasms were out of the question!
In reality, he had found himself in this situation, his sneak attack had failed, and he had lost his last chance.
He had been saving some energy, intending to teleport right in front of Su Chen and kill him once and for all, but he had failed.
"Why did this happen? I don't believe it!" Wang Chun shouted in despair.
But there was no one to pity him. Yun Ru and the other two rushed forward, further injuring Wang Chun. He was barely clinging to life, gasping for breath.
If it weren't for Commander's intervention, the three of them might have actually killed Wang Chun.
"Do you want to know why?" Su Chen's words barely roused Wang Chun's fading consciousness. He opened his swollen eyes and, in a voice as feeble as a strand of silk, said, "Tell me, even if I die, I want to know why I failed."
"Because I am... the European Emperor!" Su Chen said with a serious expression.
Wang Chun was taken aback. What was the European Emperor? He had only heard of the Ghost Emperor. Could this be how Humans referred to the Emperors?
With confusion and puzzlement, Wang Chun fell unconscious.
This time, Su Chen took immediate control of Wang Chun's psyche. The moment of unconsciousness was the weakest time for a person to resist. This time, Su Chen finally learned the secret of the origin of Ghost Patterns from Wang Chun's mouth.
In fact, Wang Chun had discovered this information from some historical records, and the specifics were unknown.
"Sub-mission one of the first branch mission is complete. The reward has been issued. Sub-mission two of the first branch mission is activated. Use your persuasive skills to convince Wang Chun to join you as your subordinate. Success rewards 20 million Energy Points and basic Ghost Patterns fusion technology. There is no penalty for failure."
Su Chen: "???"
What in the world is persuasive skills? You want me to persuade Wang Chun to become my subordinate? Isn't that an impossible task given how badly I just beat him? And what is basic Ghost Patterns fusion technology? I've never even heard of such a thing!
"System believes in the Master's persuasive abilities. You will definitely complete the mission. As for basic Ghost Patterns fusion technology, it allows you to apply Ghost Patterns to the bodies of your troops, limited to regular soldiers."
The mission was challenging, but the rewards were rich.
Su Chen had witnessed the power of Ghost Patterns with his own eyes. Even if ordinary Ghost Clan members used Ghost Patterns, it could significantly boost their combat abilities. If applied to his own troops, Su Chen couldn't imagine the kind of force they would become.
"System, can we negotiate a bit?"
"Master, please proceed."
"Can Psychic control count as subduing him?"
"Hehe!" (To be continued...)
