Chapter 339 How can a person be so busy?
Ten paces away, the gun is swift.
Within ten paces, the gun is both fast and accurate.
This is not just empty talk.
When Song Juexiao came to his senses, the dagger in his hand was caught between the opponent's tactical uniform and flesh, unlike the feeling Jiang Xingni was familiar with, which directly pierced through the bone and penetrated the internal organs.
Instead, the cold muzzle of a gun was pressed tightly against his abdomen.
As the trigger was pulled, bullets poured out of the gun.
While it is true that superhumans have enhanced physical bodies, they are still essentially just flesh and blood.
Faced with bullets that could even penetrate steel plates, Song Juexiao didn't think his physical condition was that good as to withstand bullet hits and continue fighting even after being riddled with bullets.
Song Juexiao felt that he was just a superhuman, not a superman, an alien, a non-human, or a Kryptonian.
Within a fraction of a second of the bullet leaving the barrel, she opened her mouth without hesitation and quickly created a protective shield.
"Block it!" The protective shield formed by his supernatural power took shape the instant Song Juexiao's voice rang out, firmly blocking all the bullets that were coming along their trajectory.
At this moment, Song Juexiao felt extremely regretful. When they had all used Su Yanzhi to smuggle guns and ammunition some time ago, why didn't she ask for a share for herself?
Now that things have come to this, Song Juexiao has no choice but to use his physical skills and supernatural abilities to beat up someone who wields firearms. He can't possibly go to Su Yanzhi on the spot to ask for a gun and have a shootout with him to see who dies first.
"So you still used your superpower." The assassin opposite seemed quite disappointed. "Seeing that you initially chose to fight me hand-to-hand, I thought you didn't know how to use your superpower and wanted to have a fight between humans."
"So you're also a puppet with supernatural abilities... Well then, we have nothing more to say."
Song Juexiao was completely baffled.
If she has this superpower, why doesn't she use it? It's like a normal person who clearly has hands and feet, but after being accused by a disabled person, voluntarily sits in a wheelchair and then says that having feet is really sorry to the disabled person.
If it were Jiang Xingni or Xiao Jiming, they might resonate more with such accusations. They have both experienced what it's like to be without superpowers. Even now, they don't rely on superpowers much and still prefer to use their own physical skills and limbs in daily life.
But it's different for Song Juexiao.
Song Juexiao developed her superpower too early, to the point that she had almost forgotten what it felt like to not have a superpower. Her superpower had become a tool she was born with, just like her limbs.
This statement was directed at anyone other than Jiang Xingni and Xiao Jiming—perhaps now we should also add Lu Ming, but Lu Ming's personality is different from both Jiang Xingni and Xiao Jiming. If this statement were actually said, it's hard to say who would be the one to be criticized under this pretext—and it would almost certainly elicit a confused reaction like Song Juexiao's.
Wells tried to ruin someone's mindset with this statement, but he chose the wrong person.
Song Juexiao wasn't stupid after all. After a moment's thought, she realized why the other person had said those words to her. She chuckled and said, "I see."
She was also quite disappointed. If this person had superpowers, Song Juexiao could fight him fair and square. But now he was just an ordinary person who could use firearms. Even if she killed him, Song Juexiao would always have the illusion that she had won unfairly.
...If it's an unfair victory, then so be it!
After a brief moment of regret, Song Juexiao immediately abandoned what little conscience he had left: "Stop."
Wells froze the moment her words left his mouth, narrowing his eyes: "A special ability, that's cheating."
Song Juexiao didn't take it seriously.
As long as I can beat the opponent, who cares whether it's cheating or not?
Just as she was about to press her advantage, Wells somehow managed to break free from the shackles of his superpowers.
In the blink of an eye, he had moved close to Song Juexiao's side and then punched Song Juexiao in the body.
Song Juexiao twisted her body to dodge the punch, the wind from the punch grazing past her side. Turning her head, she saw a mocking smile on Wells' lips.
She wanted to open her mouth again—but Wells didn't give her the chance.
The battle was fast-paced and intense. Song Juexiao didn't even have time to open his mouth. He could only rely on his physical skills to fight Wells and try to find a moment to use his superpower amidst the continuous battle.
The intense battle only allowed Song Juexiao to think of one thought—"I should have just killed him by exploding last time"—but he didn't even have time to regret it.
If Wells were to lose focus for even a second, he wouldn't hold back against Song Juexiao like his sparring partners.
Moreover, Song Juexiao didn't know if it was just her imagination, but she always felt that fighting Wells was a strange experience—it felt like she was sparring with her own teammate, but the attack was more ruthless. At the same time, she also had the feeling that when she fought Jiang Xingni, all her moves were seen through by the opponent.

Meanwhile, Pei Zhaoye was providing tense and exciting support to his teammates who were trapped in a time loop.
He was responsible for providing them with anchor points in the sense of time, as well as numbers showing how many times they had cycled through time.
They are also responsible for observing the overall situation of the city, whether any enemy forces suddenly appear and are preparing to join the battle, and calculating how to break the time loop.
They even had to take time to observe the fight between Song Juexiao and Wells, nervously assessing whether their teammates would be killed by Wells.
However, he couldn't possibly participate in their battle.
Their battle was far too fast, and the two of them were locked in a fierce and close fight.
Even if Pei Zhaoye could control the surrounding drones and make all the gun barrels point at Wells in front of him, he would still worry that he might accidentally injure Song Juexiao.
If Song Juexiao hadn't died at Wells's hands, but had been accidentally killed by Pei Zhaoye, he felt it would have been a nightmare for the rest of his life.
Then Pei Zhaoye suddenly realized that this was only the beginning—
On the edge of the city in the distance, he spotted Jiang Xingni and Xiao Jiming in the car, and behind them, a girl clutching her seatbelt, trying to keep her body intact in the accident. He didn't recognize her; she was probably a girl Xiao Jiming and his friends had recently picked up.
Pei Zhaoye felt a wave of dizziness wash over him—how could someone be so busy? It was truly strange.
