My Ability Pool is Superior - Chapter 386: Why Does He Call You Heavenly Venerate?

“What are you doing!”

“No entry here, can’t you hear me talking to you?”

“Where did you get this thing?!”

“Put down the gun, hear me? It’s not too late to stop now!”

“If you don’t stop, we’ll shoot.”

The corridor at the other end became increasingly noisy, and the scolding voices from behind carried even more shock and anger.

From some of the scolding voices, it could be roughly judged that someone seemed to have rushed over holding a gun.

Of course, even encountering such a sudden incident, the crime scene showed no signs of panic.

Li Shan and Feng Yixuan exchanged a glance with each other, feeling more curiosity.

As members of City Martial Direct, they all retained at least one ability; if it was just someone trying to commit a crime with a gun, it was impossible to threaten them.

“Third Seat Li, Sixth Seat Feng, no need to trouble yourselves; the Security Department can handle this kind of thing.”

After the bald middle-aged man said this, he walked out of the room with a sullen face.

“Anyway, this case has no leads for now; we can watch the excitement.”

Feng Yixuan did not obediently stay in the room and followed right behind the bald middle-aged man.

The not-so-wide corridor was packed with security personnel from the Security Department.

They surrounded the gun-wielding civilian in the middle, with security personnel wearing bulletproof vests standing in the front row, their muzzles always following the gun-wielding civilian’s movements to ensure they could shoot to kill the objective at the first command.

Lu Bai poked half his body out of the room, sizing up the gun-wielding civilian.

Strangely, no matter how the Security Department personnel on site scolded, the civilian said nothing and just strode forward firmly.

Lu Bai vaguely felt that this gun-wielding civilian seemed to be coming for him.

This discovery instead confirmed his guess.

“What are you all waiting for?”

The bald middle-aged man casually kicked the butt of a subordinate nearby and scolded irritably: “Shoot his leg first; control this guy and ask questions later if there are any issues.”

For these ordinary Security Department personnel, shooting at a civilian rashly would definitely require taking responsibility, but now that the top boss had spoken, they naturally had no concerns and decisively pulled the bolt, ready to pull the trigger.

At that moment, Lu Bai suddenly spoke up.

“Wait a moment.”

“Who are you?” The bald middle-aged man immediately raised his hand to signal his subordinates to hold off and asked cautiously.

He did not recognize Lu Bai, only knowing that Lu Bai had come with Li Shan; for safety’s sake, he still needed to confirm Lu Bai’s identity before deciding what attitude to take toward him.

Li Shan, who followed out of the room, gave the bald middle-aged man the answer: “He is the new Deputy Captain of the tenth team of City Martial Direct.”

“Oh my.”

The bald middle-aged man stumbled a step, exaggeratedly slapping his thigh: “So you’re the Deputy Captain of the tenth team, such a talented person, indeed young and promising; I failed to recognize a great man, may I ask the Deputy Captain’s name?”

His attitude was so enthusiastic that he disregarded the surroundings completely, paying no attention to the gun-wielding civilian not far away.

However, no one present found anything wrong with this.

If wielding just an old bolt-action pistol could make one dominant, the shelter’s situation wouldn’t be as stable as it was now.

Lu Bai had even been a Heavenly Venerate in the Cultivation World, so he naturally wouldn’t feel proud over such flattery.

He still stared at the gun-wielding civilian, his gaze carrying a bit of inquiring expression.

For some reason, after seeing Lu Bai staring at him, the gun-wielding civilian actually stopped, looking at him with a half-smile.

Lu Bai asked: “Who are you?”

“You don’t recognize me anymore?” The gun-wielding civilian said this with undisguised malice in his tone.

He showed no awareness of being pointed at by over a dozen muzzles and casually raised the gun in his hand to aim at Lu Bai.

Seeing this, the bald middle-aged man, whether pretending or not, appeared furious on the surface: “What are you doing? Put down the gun, hear me!”

Lu Bai looked at the black hole muzzle in the other’s hand without fear and probed: “Do you know what you’re holding?”

“You all call this kind of firearm a gun.”

“Can you shoot it?”

“I’m very good at it.”

“What’s the use of being able to shoot it.”

The gun-wielding civilian did not answer but placed his index finger on the trigger; with just a little force, a bullet would fire.

“Heavenly Venerate Lu looks down on me too much.”

Being pointed at by the black hole muzzle, Lu Bai instead showed a friendly smile on his face.

Through the other’s address, Lu Bai was now completely certain of his guess.

He just didn’t understand why a native from the Deathmatch Arena could come to the real world.

By normal logic, this was absolutely impossible.

It had nothing to do with the native’s strength; the Deathmatch System had existed for so long without any record of a native following into the real world—what had gone wrong?

“If I guessed right, this isn’t your true body.”

Lu Bai stepped forward through the crowd, walking right up to less than two meters from the gun-wielding civilian: “Such a blatant probe?”

“If you were still that omnipotent Heavenly Venerate, I’d naturally flee as far as possible, but the question is, how much power do you have left now?”

The expression on the gun-wielding civilian’s face became somewhat anomalous.

Before the words finished, he decisively pulled the trigger without hesitation.

Clang~

Lu Bai didn’t dodge; the bullet hit his brow, leaving not even a white mark before ricocheting obliquely to the corridor ceiling.

Seeing this, the gun-wielding civilian’s expression changed slightly, forcing calm: “Heavenly Venerate Lu’s prowess remains, but pity your cultivation is exhausted; you’ll never find me.”

“What’s there to be proud of about this.”

Lu Bai snatched the gun from the gun-wielding civilian’s hand; the other didn’t resist, making it seem as natural as taking takeout from a delivery person at first glance: “Puppet technique? Or soul control?”

The gun-wielding civilian suddenly burst into laughter: “The esteemed Heavenly Venerate, reduced to not even seeing through such a small trick?”

He raised his hands, cupping the sides of his jaw, and suddenly exerted force with both hands.

With a click, he twisted his own head into an exaggerated angle.

His whole body collapsed limply to the ground; even on the verge of death, he continued: “Live forever in fear; I’ll always be by your side.”

Two Security Department personnel stepped forward and confirmed that the civilian’s vital signs had completely disappeared.

Everyone present looked at each other in bewilderment; even after watching the whole thing, they were still confused, completely unaware of the situation.

Li Shan looked around and finally couldn’t help leaning close to Lu Bai, asking softly: “Junior schoolmate, why did this person call you Heavenly Venerate?”
