Is this the true power of the Ancestor of the Vampire clan?
Everyone present drew in a sharp breath.
They had seen that control panel before. No matter how they hit it with clubs or slashed it with knives, it showed no reaction. Yet now, under Xavier's hand, it was crushed into a pile of debris.
The difference in strength was simply unimaginable.
Not far away, the Hooded Man realized something was amiss.
He could toy with Chloe, he could toy with everyone from The No.1 Military Academy, but Xavier was the one person he dared not trifle with.
After all, compared to Chloe, Xavier was the one who truly looked down on everything, with connections reaching to the heavens.
Realizing this, the Hooded Man turned to flee.
As a projection of consciousness sent here, escaping should have been a simple matter.
But Xavier's speed was far too fast. Before the Hooded Man could completely leave this place, he was seized by the throat with tremendous force, firmly restrained and not allowed to leave.
The Hooded Man struggled and twisted his body, but it was all in vain.
Behind him, Xavier casually gripped his throat, observed the Hooded Man for a moment, then reached up and flipped down his hood.
As expected, there was no head, only a section of jaw.
Everyone: "?"
Chloe thought of something and remarked in astonishment, "Is the Viper Group really that stingy? They won't even build a full model for their projected consciousness?"
The Hooded Man wore a hood that only revealed a section of jaw, so they really just gave the consciousness projection a jaw?
It was absurdly ridiculous.
Evidently, even Xavier was stunned speechless by this discovery for a moment, but he still chose to bring the Hooded Man down.
After all, the more advanced the consciousness projection, the more closely it was connected to its master's mind, not just visually, but in all senses.
Including pain.
Although the consciousness projection could regenerate infinitely, pain sensations could not be blocked.
And the current situation was that Xavier forcibly gripped the projection, not allowing it to leave. As a result, the Hooded Man's real body, operating from thousands of miles away, could not escape Xavier's control.
With sensory connection, it meant that Xavier could deal with the Hooded Man however he wished, and the Hooded Man could not escape.
Xavier held the Hooded Man by the throat like a chicken and brought him over to Chloe, asking:
"Do you really dislike him?"
Chloe nodded, "Of course."
She thought for a moment, then added some embellishment:
"Because this bad guy was just slandering you earlier, saying bad things about you, calling you a tyrant of the vampire clan, a bloodthirsty and heartless villain."
The Hooded Man's remaining jaw clenched tightly, his whole body expressing rejection and confusion.
When had he ever said such things? Wasn't Chloe the one slandering now?
However, fortunately, Xavier didn't show much reaction after hearing these words.
He didn't seem to care about how others evaluated him.
Seeing this, Chloe had a flash of inspiration and put on an aggrieved expression:
"Daddy, you don't know how much this person likes to bully me when you're not around."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xavier's dark red eyes lifted, staring fixedly at Chloe: "Tell me."
Chloe's eyes darted, and she immediately began to tattle:
"He made me kneel before him!"
Hooded Man: "..."
Very obviously, the temperature around Xavier dropped by a degree.
Chloe seized the opportunity and continued: "He also said that I'm at best just a rich second generation, that I'm nothing without daddy, not only low in status but also weak in strength..."
Of course, the latter part was completely made up.
Chloe secretly scoffed in her heart - joke's on him, her strength wasn't weak at all. Besides Xavier, she was the most powerful person in this world, wasn't she?
Thinking thus, Chloe felt not the slightest shame.
She was happy and delighted, but the Hooded Man was in for a tough time.
He couldn't utter a single word now, because everyone could sense that Xavier was in a bad mood, a very bad mood.
After a long while, he finally said in a low voice:
"Did he really say that?"
Qin Huaibei immediately stepped forward: "Yes, that's what he said, we all heard it."
Daniel indignantly said: "He didn't just make Chloe kneel before him, he even wanted Chloe to kowtow to him!"
Katherine nodded silently beside them.
Not just them, but the soldiers also began to chatter.
They were all adding fuel to the fire, and not a single word coming out of their mouths was true.
"Yeah, yeah, this guy was so arrogant, he called the young miss a noob."
"He also said the young miss was just living off her dad."
"That's nothing, have you forgotten? He even said the young miss was ugly!"
"Ah yes, yes! That's exactly what he said!"
The Hooded Man's face turned a sickly green as he shouted, "I never said that!"
Everyone turned their gazes towards him, their eyes filled with accusatory looks.
Almost as soon as the Hooded Man finished speaking, Xavier applied force with his hand.
In an instant, flames erupted, and without even a whimper, the consciousness projection completely turned to ashes.
It was truly ashes, it even maintained a human shape for a moment.
But only for a moment. When the wind blew, the ashes quickly dispersed.
Not even a single particle remained.
The whole scene was silent for two seconds. Chloe stared at him, blinked her eyes, and then very obligingly raised her hands to applaud.
"So powerful, so amazing, as expected of my daddy."
Xavier's tense face relaxed a bit.
He walked in front of Chloe, turned the girl around in a full circle, carefully examining her from top to bottom. Upon seeing the various large and small wounds, Xavier's brows furrowed slightly, and he took out a bunch of medicine from his pocket and handed it to Chloe:
"Apply it yourself when you get back."
As he spoke, he surveyed the scene and happened to see Ren Yunying.
She was half-squatting in front of a dead transparent monster, seemingly collecting genetic samples.
Xavier uninterestedly shifted his gaze and said in a low voice:
"This time you're coming with me. Ren Yunying is useless, even with her around so many problems occurred."
Ren Yunying, who heard the conversation clearly from not far away: "..."
She clutched the bottle tightly.
Is there a possibility that she was still here, not far away?
Couldn't this father-daughter pair at least consider the situation before badmouthing others?
But obviously, not only did Xavier lack this awareness, but Chloe did too.
She nodded leisurely, agreeing with Xavier: "That's right."
Ren Yunying almost crushed the bottle.
She took a deep breath, deciding to move away first, otherwise she would surely be angered to death by this father-daughter pair sooner or later.
Xavier: "Are there any prisoners?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chloe kicked at her feet, shoving out the researchers who were curled up at her feet like quails, her tone impatient:
"Hey, didn't you hear? My dad is asking you a question!"
The researchers were terrified into silence.
They didn't dare to deal with Chloe alone, let alone the Ancestor of the Vampire clan.
Xavier had no patience to play cat and mouse games with them. He squatted down directly, his dark red eyes extremely intimidating:
"Tell me, where is your nearest hideout?"
