Things happened suddenly.
But Harry Helen was not flustered at all.
No matter what, she was still an awakened psionic.
A human-sized black hole appeared in front of her.
This black hole was an excellent means of defense. Once it was activated, it could even defend against sniper bullets.
However, Elrond did not attack her directly.
Instead, the three pairs of arms took out grenades at the same time.
Elrond dashed toward Helen Harry and suddenly stopped in mid-air.
The eight mechanical arms moved in unison and threw the flashbangs, grenades, and smoke bombs at Harry Helen simultaneously.
This kind of operation left Helen Harry stunned.
Weren't they going to face each other head-on?
"Is this still the same dull Zero?"
In the past, the two of them had sparred countless times.
Zero was like a fool who was incapable of planning. He would directly charge forward and clashed head-on with her.
That was not all.
Elrond threw all the grenades at Helen in an instance.
If he chose to clash head-on, that would be the stupidest decision he had ever made.
Putting aside if it was possible for him to win Helen.
As time went by, it would be extremely troublesome if Helen's subordinates were to return at the same time.
In order to escape, he brought along a huge amount of smoke bombs and flashbangs in his backpack.
He threw it all at her without any hesitation.
The forest's surroundings turned white instantly, making it impossible to see anything.
"Hmph—" Helen snorted coldly. Black energy was burning around her.
She seemed to be enveloped inside a black hole.
"Zero, you have developed your self-consciousness long ago, am I right?"
"Thank you, Helen Harry. You are my benefactor, so I won't kill you today. Goodbye."
"Splash—"
She heard the sound of a heavy object falling into the water.
Helen hurriedly found her way to the riverside.
She was not afraid of being ambushed. The black aura around her could defend against all attacks.
At least, it could defend against Elrond's attacks.
But when she reached the riverside, there was no sign of Elrond.
He was in the water.
Elrond thought to himself, "This woman is really powerful. As expected of the organization's future Number One Enemy."
Actually, Elrond could have used other methods to escape a long time ago.
he stood a chance to kill Helen Harry.
It was a brilliant idea. It was a world of difference between psionics with ESP and those who had not awakened theirs.
The mechanical arms transformed into a digging tool.
In under 10 seconds, an underground tunnel appeared at the bottom of the river.
If Helen Harry were to see the miniature oxygen tank on his back, her eyes would pop out.
Just how meticulous was he, and what terrifying planning skills he had?
Elrond planned everything half a year ago.
The third plan was to escape from the sewer.
He could not do that without oxygen.
This was how he managed to hide in the water for the past few days, which led to Helen's misunderstanding.
Digging a tunnel under the water was not as difficult as he thought.
There was no choice but to dig from the sides of the river.
There was no guarantee if the organization would think of other ways to search for him.
If they were smart enough to send out a police dog, they would be able to track his whereabouts in the underground.
However, if he dug along the waterway, that would block out various detection methods.
There would not be any sound or smell.
Very quickly, Elrond escaped from the secured perimeter.
…
Her subordinates killed all the crocodiles, but they didn't manage to find anything.
The smoke and dust slowly dispersed, and the forest regained its visibility again.
Harry Helen was a little stunned.
"Could Zero have awakened his ESP?"
"That's impossible. Only one in ten thousand people could awaken their ESP. How is this possible?
"If he had awakened his ESP, it's impossible that I could not tell for the past six months."
At the same time, Helen was feeling rather melancholic.
When Zero escaped, she happened to be away from the base.
"That's not right. Could it be that— he seized this opportunity?"
However, she could not understand the reason for Zero's betrayal.
The search team also returned from the forest.
They picked up some mechanical fragments.
"We found this."
"Bring it back."
...
The next day, a large group of people from New Life Organization arrived at the base. The leader personally led a team over.
No one knew the true face of New Life Organization's leader.
No matter what the occasion was, he was always in a black windbreaker, black cloak, and black mask. Everything he wore was black.
Even Helen Harry had never seen the leader's true countenance.
"Where is Zero?"
"We lost him…" Helen gritted her teeth and said.
"If you give me more men..."
The leader raised his hand. Although she could not see his expression, Helen knew that the leader was extremely dissatisfied with her.
Everyone kept silent.
Even though the leader did not voice out his criticisms, they could sense his anger.
Zero was a failed experimental subject, a useless experiment that was of no value, and a discarded one.
He was a failed product that had been moved to the recycling bin so many times.
Yet, he escaped from the experimental base.
Were the guards incompetent, or was Zero too powerful?
The most important thing of all, was this place a laboratory?
How did Zero manage to observe and check the data? How could there be such a big loophole?
"A 'failed' experimental subject killed 30 armed guards, a captain of an elite team, destroyed the experimental data, and escaped the encirclement of more than 100 people. Tell me, have I just heard a fairy tale?"
Everyone looked at each other in dismay.
The leader said coldly, "Tell me. When did Zero start to develop an awareness for resistance?
"Why does he have this kind of combat power?"
The researcher who took over Harry York said, "We have studied the surveillance video for the past six months and came up with some guesses."
"Speak."
"Zero, the satellite movement model shifted greatly before and after the experiment. It is likely because of his previous life's identity."
"Identity?"
The leader didn't say anything.
The experimenter continued, "Elrond, his full name is Elrond Edward. He's the third son of Mr. Edward, who is the second head of the family."
Everyone was shocked. Weren't the Edwards the famous arms dealer?
They were a large multinational family.
How did they capture the third son of the second head of the family?
The experimental base had always been capturing vagrants, beggars, or orphans for experiments.
Why would they catch such an important person?
This did not bode well for New Life Organization.
If the Edwards found out about the truth, it would pose a huge problem for the organization.
The leader asked solemnly, "What's going on? Give me the full details."
