I adopted a child demon from the Gap, and I'm a special agent for the Bureau of Supernatural Ab

Standing in front of Li Cheng, the man chuckled softly, his wide-open mouth revealing his interlocking sharp teeth.

This chapter includes an extra 3k words, but I still owe 53k words. Tsk, there's still a long way to go.

Chapter 11, Section 332: Having a wife means you can do anything.

A tall, thin man dressed in green looked at Li Cheng with a ferocious expression. The latter quickly retreated more than ten steps, keeping a distance to wary of his opponent's movements.

What exactly is this guy's ability?

Li Cheng squinted, carefully observing the other party.

Although he had tested the waters several times, Li Cheng still hadn't quite figured out what ability his opponent was using. However, during the exchange, he seemed to sense that his opponent's power was somewhat unusual compared to ordinary magic. Li Cheng hadn't sensed any strong magical reaction, but he had vaguely sensed a peculiar aura that seemed to be higher than magic power.

That aura reminded Li Cheng of something he had seen in Zi's memories, but compared to the intensity of what he had seen in Zi's memories, the aura emanating from this man was far too weak, and it felt somewhat ambiguous, leaving Li Cheng uncertain.

[How pathetic! You've actually been standing by this guy until now without daring to make a move. Hehe, that's quite a change from your usual style~]

In the hotel bathroom, Zi, lying on her back and almost completely immersed in the bathtub, chuckled and spoke, her voice transmitted directly to Li Cheng's mind, who was dodging an opponent's attack, through the contract link.

"purple?"

Li Cheng was slightly taken aback by Zi's sudden voice, but then quickly smiled with relief.

"I have indeed become a bit timid. If it were before, I probably would have kept rushing in and fighting head-on with him. But sometimes being a little cautious is not a bad thing, after all, I really don't understand how this guy's ability works."

That's really stupid. You can draw conclusions about this with just a little observation.

Zi's ​​voice, clearly tinged with helplessness, rang out immediately afterward.

"I'm really sorry," Li Cheng dodged, and a huge blade flew past his side, shattering a brick wall not far away with a loud bang. "Last time, the blade couldn't even leave a mark on the wall, but this time it shattered the wall. The attack methods are exactly the same, so why is the power different?"

[Haven't you already made some guesses about this?]

As Zi spoke, she stood up from the bathtub, water droplets of all sizes slowly flowing down her skin. She simply used her demonic power to wash away the water, and without even putting on a bathrobe, she went barefoot back to the large bed in the outer room and jumped onto it with a "Hey!"

Just speculation?

"Well, although it's not very clear yet, that guy's power seems to be related to conceptual abilities, just like the boundary power I got from Zi. That's why he can defend against any of my attacks indiscriminately, while the attack methods he uses also vary in power."

"Wow, he's a very smart person."

Li Cheng didn't lower his voice. The man standing not far away laughed and shouted as he waved the powder flying everywhere.

"So why not try a little harder and think about how exactly my ability works and how it manipulates concepts?"

Nonsense! It's precisely because I haven't fully figured out how you manipulate concepts that I keep testing you!

Li Cheng cursed under his breath, then dodged another powdery blade aimed at him.

The method is to adjust the order. If we divide all concepts into superior and inferior categories, that is, things like higher and lower, then the concepts classified as higher can easily crush the concepts classified as lower.

Zi's ​​yawning voice entered Li Cheng's mind at that moment.

[To think we've been held up by an enemy of this caliber for so long is really killing our patience for watching the show. Let's finish them off and come back quickly.]

"Hey?!"

Startled by Zi's sudden words, Li Cheng quickly reacted, dodging the man's attack once more. He grabbed a piece of rubble beside him, turned, and hurled it at the man. As always, the stone shattered before it even touched the man's body. But immediately afterward, Li Cheng darted forward with incredible speed, catching up with the thrown rubble in the blink of an eye, and threw a powerful punch straight at the man before him.

call--

The powerful gust of wind from the punch stirred up the surrounding dust, and Li Cheng's fist landed on empty air. The man who had been arrogant from beginning to end chose to dodge when faced with Li Cheng's attack that followed closely behind the boulder.

Ah, I see. That's how it is.

Li Cheng closed his eyes, recalling the occasional slight movement of his opponent's lips during their previous battle.

"Is it possible to alter the hierarchical relationship between two different things in terms of concepts through language as a trigger mechanism, thereby avoiding harm and inflicting an attack?"

Seeing the man stagger back several steps in a disheveled state, Li Cheng slowly walked towards him.

"You were able to detect my ability so quickly? No, that's not right. Those mutterings you were talking to someone else. Did you use some kind of technique to establish a remote communication? Was someone observing from afar and providing the answers?"

The man roared in a panic, gathering a large number of blades to attack Li Cheng. This time, Li Cheng stomped the ground, kicked up a broken steel bar, grabbed it, and swung it at the blades. The previously invincible blades all vanished upon impact with the steel bar.

"Yes, that's right. After all, I don't know much about observing magic tricks, so I need more professional people to do it."

Li Cheng smiled, and his expression became proud.

"Hmph, it's not a problem to tell you, you ugly monster. The person who showed me how your abilities work is my wife."

Hmph hmph hmph~

A voice, whose actual meaning was unclear, rang in Li Cheng's mind, but judging from the tone of the voice, it seemed to be a very happy statement.

"Hmph, for a servant of the master, the affairs of ordinary people are meaningless."

Whether provoked by Li Cheng's use of the word "wife" or not, the man snorted coldly, his voice instantly turning much colder.

"Servant of the Lord? In other words, are you a member of a church?"

Li Cheng keenly grasped the information in the other party's words.

“It doesn’t matter if I tell you, my name is Left Side, and I am a member of the highest organization of the Roman Catholic Church, the ‘Right Seat of God’. Hmph, you must have heard of our great name.”

The man, on the other hand, appeared completely at ease. After his methods of operation were discovered, he readily revealed his identity, even displaying a hint of pride on his face, as if he belonged to some world-renowned and great organization.

"Huh? No, no, I'm really not interested in religion. What is the Roman Orthodox Church? Is it also a Christian religion? I remember the textbook mentioned something other than the Eastern Orthodox Church, didn't it?"

However, Li Cheng, who was born and raised in a country that did not believe in any gods, but only in the power of humankind itself, and whose only ancient god was willing to assist human kings, knew absolutely nothing about religion. After hearing the proud introduction from the left side, he was stunned.

Meanwhile, those on the left immediately noticed the awkward expression on Li Cheng's face, as if asking, "What the hell are you talking about?" They realized that the other party had no idea what the organization name he mentioned meant.

"You idiot, you don't know anything at all? How ignorant and foolish! It's better to kill all the heretics. I was so hopeful before, thinking that even though it was a barbaric land where the Lord's light couldn't reach, there might be a light worth saving. In the end, they were all just insignificant worms!"

On the left side, where a large amount of wheat flour once again gathered, a decision was made in anger.

"Hmph, whatever. Next, I'll take you out and then support that guy Feng. The death of a top-tier A-level fighter should be enough to make the leaders of this small country, who have finally recovered from their predicament, feel the pain."

"While I'm slightly surprised to be targeted as a strategic objective, I must remind you that I'm not a resident of this country. I'm just a long-term resident here, employed by the local government. Essentially, I'm just a foreign employee, so killing me would be pointless. Besides, I don't think you'll have a chance to deal with me now that your abilities have been revealed!"

Li Cheng slowly gathered all his demonic power and spoke in a deep voice to the left.

"Hmph, what do you know? My abilities are invincible in one-on-one combat!"

"Left side," he said with a cold laugh, scattering wheat flour that transformed into many long whips, which attacked Li Cheng like countless twisted tentacles.

"No matter what kind of attack it is, as long as I use this 'Execution of Light,' I can completely ignore it. Monotonous attacks can never break through my defense. And you, without any supporting teammates, your only possible fate is to be killed by me!"

Amidst the roars from the left, Li Cheng finally couldn't dodge the overwhelming attack. He was struck by a long whip and sent flying into a nearby building, crashing into the third floor with a loud bang.

"Hmph, I've dealt with opponents as agile as you as monkeys many times. As long as I increase the range and density of my attacks, you'll only get brutally killed while moving in increasingly comical and clumsy ways."

"is it?"

That voice?! It's behind me!

"Set the order—"

Boom!

The immense wind pressure caused Li Cheng's fist to stop just millimeters away from the face on the left. The huge recoil then sent Li Cheng flying again, but this time he slammed his feet into the ground and only staggered back about ten steps before stopping. He shook his hand and looked up at the ground on the left.

"You're not just a simple martial artist. Was that a teleportation spell just now? How could you have a teleportation spell with absolutely no magical fluctuations?"

"Take a guess, but don't expect me to give you any hints."

As Li Cheng spoke, he charged forward again, but this time, Zuo Fangdi snorted coldly and sank his body into the ground once more, choosing to avoid the battle.

This guy, is he trying to run away?

Meanwhile, underground, the land on the left continued to move forward at an extremely fast speed, moving away from where Li Cheng was on the surface.

I never imagined that such a powerful person would exist in this small, desolate place. His physical attributes are at the pinnacle of A-rank I've ever seen, and he also possesses unparalleled teleportation magic. Who knows what other strange tricks he might have up his sleeve? Against such an opponent, my own spells, which I haven't fully mastered yet and currently only allow for adjusting the priority of a single target at a time, aren't quite suitable.

Let's abandon our objective here and instead assist Feng in slaughtering more heretics and their high-ranking combatants.

We never said you could leave!

A voice seemed to be coming from afar. The person on the left could not hear the voice clearly, nor did he have time to pay attention to it, because the sand and stones around him suddenly began to bind his body, making him unable to move.

I clearly set the order so that the sand and stones could not stop me, so why did I suddenly become unable to move?

"Settings in order—Ugh!"

Before he could even open his mouth to speak, a large piece of gravel suddenly blocked his mouth. Then, as if it had a mind of its own, the surrounding rocks enveloped him on the left and flung him back to the surface from underground.

"Cough cough cough—what on earth is going on? Why is it failing..."

He lay on the ground to the left, spitting out sand and gravel from his mouth while muttering to himself in disbelief.

"Because the limitations of simply changing the concept of a single target are too great. With just a little manipulation, weaknesses can be easily found. Yes, that's what she said."

Li Cheng appeared beside him on the left and looked at him calmly, saying...

"You set the order of the sand under your body, so you can move freely through it. So, if you just secretly change the composition of the sand and mix in other foreign objects, wouldn't it be easy to get you out? Oh, by the way, she told me to tell you that any spell that needs to be shouted out to be used, no matter how fast it can be chanted or how powerful its effect is, is just trash."

"Nonsense! My abilities are clearly on par with those of the Divine Child, true divine arts! How could a heretic like you possibly—"

The angry words from the left side were cut short as the steel bar in Li Cheng's hand slammed into his face. Of course, he didn't die from the steel bar; despite the suddenness of the attack, he quickly prioritized his actions, creating an invisible wall that firmly blocked the steel bar.

Then Li Cheng's fist shattered the steel bars and landed directly on the head of the person on the left.

As a magician, Zuo Fangdi's physique might be excellent compared to ordinary people, but when faced with a punch with a force of several tons, such force would not make his corpse any more beautiful.

Furthermore, the power of God is nothing more than the past that has been destroyed by humankind.

However, there's no need to say this to a corpse.
