Chapter 3 - The Star City

Bai is preoccupied with Lucas, yesterday after the speech of Miss Sasha the school don't make sense with the energy of the students so they can take leave for the rest of the day,Bai and Lucas take the same way to home so he encountered Lucas on the way and even tough Lucas acted normally they have known each other for a long time so he perceived that Lucas was shocked and it's comprehensive, after all more than 85% of the mundial population has power, not having power in this era is like a maimed people.Even himself wanted show off his electric powers to Lucas but it would only make the situation worse.

"Ah!Thinking much is annoying, it's better I found a way to improve my power" Bai hit his head in the sofa and goes to his room search for ways to generate electricity or even try absorb electricity.

Lucas is going normally to school these 2 days but few people do this, everyone is trying to improve their powers, many people have been famous those days teaching online how utilize your power with efficiency, the majority is false and just want your views and money but don't know if it's a blind cat picking up a dead mouse or anything else but several of them managed to improve the powers of others a little and it's made tem very famous,but is undoubtedly they did it because everything is recorded and make fake videos nowadays is tantamount to shooting yourself in the foot, the technology is much better and the public is not an idiot.

With the speeches of higher-ups around the world and more guards in every city the crime surprisingly decreases comparable to before the Eternal Day, but the ones that have are much more destructive, virtually every power even if it's not combative, there's no way to kill with a 9mm pistol or comparable destruction, and the strongest powers so far need anti tank weapons to take down and everyone believes that we are in the initial phase of the powers, in the future heat guns probably will be scrap metal, even nuclear weapons they believe will be nothing more than a toy.

Lucas is annoyed seeing these analyses "Humpf, these powers is nothing much, humans will create what we need."

"Ah, what a loser though, you don't like powers because don't have it" Lucas retorts himself with a mocking smile.

Although it looks like Lucas gave up before trying but those 2 days he tried everything, he even thought the dream with the immeasurable obsidian skeleton or even the mountain without summit is his power but be the terrible skeleton bright red eyes or the pressure of the infinite mountain he don't have the minimum connection with both.

Lucas is analyzing both intentions and he wanted to have one of them, the powers in the internet are very powerful but even if it reach the limit he can't imagine this power beating the imensuravel skeleton, but unfortunately he was so scared at the time that he didn't play attention and even if he had paid attention, for an ant, a child and an adult, there is no difference, but he has the impression that the mountain is more dangerous and majestic.

Like a snap of a finger Lucas remembered what annihilated both the skeleton and the mountain, his own hands, as if it were a instinct, Lucas stood up and positioned himself and punched,this punch have more technique and power than when he was in the dream but still clumsy and rough, and while the punch is in full motion Lucas sobered and have a strange feeling so he directed the punch to the ceiling.

The force created by the punch is like a knife slicing butter through the ceiling and like a inverted comet traveling through the sky and disappearing like snow melting in the stars, it's just a moment but the entire city trembled like a earthquake and everyone see a invisible force going towards the sky distorting the space.

While everyone was looking at the force that had already disappeared from the field of vision, one person was not looking at the force but from the house that it came from.This person disappeared and reappeared in the top of the house,simultaneously a barrier covered the house and from outside the house is the same than before.

"Tsk tsk tsk, young people nowadays sure are intense" The person looked at perfectly cut roaf and at Lucas on his knees bleeding and an arm decaying like dust and said ironically.

Lucas gathered all the strength to look up, when he looked up the person was already in front of him.

When he see a tall woman with a beautiful face and silver long hair and a smile that appears a little teasing he congealed "?????"

"Miss Sasha?!" The surprise is so big that Lucas forgot the pain and soon after his face paled with the movement of the arm.

"Little boy,no need be so surprised, and don't call Miss out of work." Miss Sasha said while analyzing Lucas.

When Lucas is going to respond Miss Sasha said "The situation is urgent, do you want lose your arm or waste time chatting?"

"You can solve this?" Lucas eyes shined.

"Don't look at me like that, I can but I have a condition, you choose hehe" Miss Sasha made a mischievous face.

Lucas hesitate a little but he remembered that she is a high official of the government, with every type of powers the government has available whatever she wants do to with him is possible so he decided take it.

"Okay, but if it's something that violates my principles then you can kill me if you want, because i won't do it." Lucas said with a firm expression even with his arm turning in dust little by little.

The eyes of Miss Sasha changed a little looking at Lucas and she said "What a cute boy, don't worry about this, I think you might like what I want."

With doubts Lucas was going to say but before that a purple-gold light shine in his body and the bruises went back to normal skin and if it wasn't for the damaged clothes and blood traces he will think nothing happened.

In the meanwhile outside of the barrier the city is agitated and even other cities have a eye there, the unique motive plausible for that ray of invisible force distorting the space is powers but powers so far have many limitations like the destructive power of the project or the distance affects the power and various other limitations, physical powers much more, the ar pressure of the strongest physical powers so far just bend stell of dozens of meters way, it's a massive air pressure but still weak to distant attacks and for this reason physical powers is one of least preferred, winning over just support powers.

So this force have power sufficient to distorting space and speed sufficient to leave the planet,scientists around the world are calculating the estimated destructive power of that but anyone could see this power far exceed all of others powers and modern weapons,so out of respect for the possible owner of that ray of force the city was renamed as The Star City.

Southwest, 5 miles away of The Star City

"You asshole, I discovered it first so it's mine." A young man said with anger.

"Haha, as if you created this place, I'm here too so is this valley mine by any chance?" replied a young man with white hair and carefree smile.

"Don't blame me then" said the young man creating a translucent ice dagger .

The young man with white hair don't even responded, just looked solem at ice dagger, the elementals only could be controlled within the area of the controle of the caster, and currently the majority is no more than 15 centimeters and his ice dagger has at least 25 centimeters, so his territory can be even 30 centimeters, and the white hair young man it's on the same level so who use the elements better has the biggest advantage.

Suddenly the young man with the dagger falls apart an turn in ice and ice fog forms,the face of white haired boy changed and he shot two lightning in the floor and jumped back and looked around.

While looking around the white haired boy created a lightning armor,it's faint and only the upper part and the head but it's sufficient now, suddenly heard a whistle sound and formed a net of lightning and threw her in the direction of the sound while he defended with the arms, the net caught a human figure in translucent ice armor but the ice dagger is on the arm of the white haired boy.

"Your net is just electricity and have no destructive power to bring me down rapidly, you lost, better surrender or my ice dagger will freeze your arms by inside" the ice fog is gone and the young man is trapped in the net but is smiling even being pale of the electricity.

"I lose?haha,you didn't study physics?" replied the white haired boy.

Suddenly the voltage in the net increased exponentially, without time to think the young man only could create hundreds of ice thorns and attack the white haired boy, because the distance the white haired boy only could produce a lightning barrier but this time a intensity and quantity of lightning are much more.

When the attack and defense collided the young man want to remove the dagger but a hand is gripping the blade body so he unwilling let go but it's late and he received a kick with the last of electricity in the white haired boy.

"Who lose now?" said the white haired boy after gasping for air.

"I don't lose, your arm is almost useless, and the trick of the first lightning melt the ice and the second lightning ionized the melted water will not work again, if I hadn't underestimated yo-" When the young man will keep talking he spat blood.

"Hehe,my final kick have quite a lot of lightning, you still standing surprised me." said the white haired boy half amazed and half mocking.

"I don't lose but you are a worth opponent,let's divide this thing and it's over" surprisingly the young man want to end like this.

The white haired boy thought and responded "Okay, but I will bring a friend, don't worry, he will take from my part and he didn't have a power,even if he has for you escaping is easy."

"Okay, and my name is Yufei to you know who will win you" The young man responded practically without thinking.

"Hahaha, my name is Bai, and not only who will defeat you but who everyone will know" Bai gave a arrogant statement in a carefree manner like telling what's his ice cream preferred savor.
