Chapter 70 Surveillance
The sword was disintegrated into tiny dust by those two beams of light and flew around Velys’ right hand.
After a while, they slowly fused with her arm, and became a bizarre tattoo on the back of her hand.
“This is…” Velys raised her hand in front of her face, studying it as if she didn’t understand what was going on.
However, Hikaru’s face revealed an unbelievable surprise.
“Velys… close your eyes quickly, feel the tattoo on the back of your hand.”
Velys was startled when she heard Hikaru’s words but she still immediately did as he said. She closed her eyes, and carefully felt the tattoo on the back of her hand.
Although she didn’t know how to feel the tattoo, as long as Hikaru wanted her to that, she would try to do as he said.
As soon as she closed her eyes and thought about the tattoo, a flood of information hit her brain, startling her.
Velys opened her eyes, and it was as if she had just realized something terrible.
She suddenly reached out her hand, and a fireball and an ice ball the size of a Tennis ball appeared, they were floating in the air, only about 10cm from Velys’ hand.
The fireball and ice ball didn’t seem to affect each other, on the contrary, they tended to fuse together.
They came closer together, then, the ice ball suddenly split into a small groove.
The fireball immediately rushed inside the ice ball through that crack.
A strange thing appeared in front of Hikaru, the outer ice ball was still cold enough to give off smoke, but its core was a fireball that was burning monstrously.
Hikaru’s eyes were filled with joy and surprise. In the novel, it was said that Velys only possessesed a single element which was Fire.
Velys’ Fire was extremely powerful, and by the time she fought Tadashi, Velys’ Fire was able to melt iron in the blink of an eye.
In the novel world “Apocalypse: I own the Panara Box”, each evolved person possesses a special ability.
However, the rarest special ability is elemental control.
There are a few people who can possess one type of element, there is a very small percentage of people who possess two types of elements.
To be more precise, out of a million evolved humans, only 1,000 people possessed the ability to control the elements.
Of those 1,000 people, only 100 possessed the ability to control two types of elements.
However, to be able to fuse two completely opposite elements like this, only Velys could do it.
In the novels, Tadashi also never met any evolved person or monster that possessed two types of elements that they could fuse together like this.
“Velys… can you make them fuse together without any difficulty?”
Hearing that, Velys shook her head: “I feel that… they can fuse and support each other naturally thereby greatly increasing their attack power.”
Hikaru took a deep breath, he didn’t think that giving the elemental sword to Velys would help her activate her special ability.
Moreover the sword could help Velys increase her strength significantly.
However, why was Velys different from the novel? Was it because he interfered that Velys became stronger?
[Master, Tadashi has changed so Velys has to change too, that’s normal. Besides… before she activated her special power, you gave her the Power Evolution Potion.]
Hearing that, Hikaru gradually understood why Velys was different from the novel.
In the novel, she was a villain who could face Tadashi, and her strength nearly killed Tadashi many times.
Tadashi was currently now much stronger, as his luck had also skyrocketed to 75,000.
Perhaps that is the main reason that Velys’ abilities have also been enhanced to be suitable for the role of Tadashi’s enemy.
Of course, there’s no denying Hikaru’s credit for giving Velys a power-evolving potion before she activated her special ability.
After that, Hikaru took Velys outside, stood in the courtyard, and said: “Velys, you should try to use your skills to attack that pine tree.”
Hearing that, Velys nodded, and threw the ice ball wrapped in a fireball at the pine tree over 10 meters in the distance.
The fire-ice ball flew at an arrow-like speed, hitting the trunk of the pine tree.
BAM!
There was a loud bang, and the pine tree was instantly frozen.
However, Hikaru could see that behind the ice that was confining the outside, the pine tree inside was burning like a block of embers.
But… what was more bizarre was that even though the pine tree was burning like a torch, the ice covering it was still extremely cold and showed no sign of melting.
Hikaru approached, and placed his hand on the outer layer of ice. The moment his finger touched the ice, it seemed to spread to his hand.
The terrible cold startled Hikaru, and he immediately withdrew his hand.
Although he acted extremely fast, his fingers were still covered by a very thin layer of ice.
What was more frightening was that although the outside of his finger was covered with a thin layer of ice, he felt that his finger was burning from the fire.
The feeling of cold and heat made him feel a little uncomfortable and painful.
Awful.
Is this the power of Velys? He thought.
“Hikaru, are you okay?!” Velys hurriedly approached Hikaru, and examined the wound on his finger, her face filled with worry: “Sorry… Hikaru, sorry… I…”
Hikaru was not angry, on the contrary, he smiled as he was extremely satisfied: “Hahaha…”
He put his other hand on Velys’ head, and patted her head as he said, “Don’t worry, I’m fine. Just a small wound. But you surprised me with your strength.”
“Velys, you did a great job.”
“Really?” Velys heard that and smiled, she felt extremely happy and warm inside.
Hikaru looked towards the pine tree and said, “Your strength is extremely rare. The outer layer of ice is like a prison, not allowing those trapped inside to escape, nor allowing those on the outside to get close.”
“Even those trapped inside the ice will be burned to death. If anyone dares to come near them, they will suffer the same fate…”
“Velys… you should try to make good use of your powers, understand.”
“Um!” Velys nodded, his face filled with confidence: “I will try not to let you down.”
“But… can you cancel it?” Hikaru pointed towards the frozen pine tree and said.
Velys felt a little embarrassed: “Hm… I don’t know either, but I’ll try.”
She put her hands forward, then, a gust of wind rose. The outer layer of ice gradually melted, but it did not melt into water, but turned into many tiny snow dust particles.
What surprised him more was that the ice that covered the outside of the pine tree had disappeared, and the pine tree also fell to the ground, breaking into countless pieces of burning coals.
It seems… as long as someone is hit by Velys’ ice-fire ball, they will surely die, and there was no way to save the person.
“Velys, how can you fuse those two elements together so perfectly.”
Velys turned her head to look at Hikaru, trying to remember what she had just done but then she could only shake her head: “Hikaru, sorry. The way I fuse or use those two elements is like a part of my memory, it’s already there.”
“Just like breathing, I can easily control it with my thoughts.”
Hikaru nodded, “It’s okay, I understand what you just said. This is my next gift to you.”
He gave Velys two cards “Gun Mastery” and “Melee Mastery”.
She held the two cards in her hand, as she did not know how to use them. Hikaru suddenly reached out his finger and touched the two cards.
They instantly turned into countless particles of light that fused into Velys’ head.
Velys felt the memory in her head, and found this extremely hard to believe.
Her gaze on Hikaru right now was not only filled with love but also filled with admiration. Like a believer looking at the god she worshiped all this time.
Although she was very curious, Velys knew that Hikaru had many secrets that could not be told. She also didn’t want to make him feel like she’s a curious cat.
“Um…for now, perhaps you have the ability to protect this mansion.”
Velys nodded: “Don’t worry, I will try to protect this place because this place is our home.”
After saying this, Velys lowered her head so that Hikaru couldn’t see her blushing face that was like a ripe apple.
Hikaru smiled, and didn’t say anything more. Velys hurriedly ran into the house and started making breakfast.
Hikaru came in after, and upon seeing Velys using her fire element to cook, his expression was a bit… ( ; ) _ _ _
“You…”
Hearing Hikaru’s voice filled with surprise, Velys hurriedly explained: “Ah! I find the fire element to be a bit convenient, if we use this then we don’t need to use a lot of the resources we’ve accumulated.”
“That way, we can save a lot of gas.”
Hikaru felt that Velys seemed to be starting to save a bit too much. But that’s also good, if she uses her ability a lot, her proficiency will also increase.
After breakfast, Hikaru let Velys patrol around the mansion. In the middle of the mansion there is a watchtower, Velys could stand there and observe everything around.
Hikaru went to Shiori’s room, and seeing that she still hadn’t regained consciousness, he sighed, and felt a bit frustrated and confused.
“Could it be… that when the apocalypse hits, shiori has to fall asleep to be able to awaken her special powers?”
Hikaru used the skill “Surveillance”, this was a skill that the World Will gavehim so that he could know what the main characters he had met are doing right now.
[Ding! You successfully used the skill “Surveillance” on Delmor and Tadashi.]
