Of course, trying to shake off Mengdie was not an option either. The speed of Mengdie was not slower than Feng Yi's to begin with. If at all slower, it was only in comparison under the extreme conditions of the Legendary Realm. Under normal circumstances, Mengdie's speed far surpassed Feng Yi's, especially considering his current physical state. Trying to escape, he would run out of energy before he could shake her off completely. Therefore, at that moment, Feng Yi did not choose to run. Instead, he resolutely brought out his timepiece, sending Eggy a set of coordinates. What came next was purely in the hands of fate.
In his opinion, there was a chance of escape, but on average, it was probably fifty-fifty. Fortunately, this lass didn't speak, so he could take advantage of that, biding time, although it was rather ignoble, shameless, excessive, and bullying, but it was the second-best option under the circumstances.
"By the way, beauty, what exactly did you do to my body? You were able to locate me, presumably because of those two fingers you pointed at my heart, right?"
"..."
"Your silence means you agree. Thanks, I knew you were kind to me."
Mengdie was frustrated by Feng Yi's rascality. She was initially speechless, but it seemed quite amusing, quietly watching Feng Yi for a moment, then she raised her hand and made a seal, and the ground instantly gave rise to a dragon made of ice that had frozen Feng Yi's limbs in place…
When she saw that Feng Yi had fallen silent, she gently drifted to the ground, lightly leaning against a tree, her delicate hands intertwined on her hips, silent as a nurturing flower, yet somehow causing Feng Yi's mind to wander endlessly…
"I say, little beauty, you are so beautiful, why always mask your face? Personally, I think it's pretty useless and even detracts from your beauty. Come on, take it off. I promise you, this will be our little secret."
Mengdie's ear twitched, she glanced at Feng Yi, then quietly turned her head away again, ignoring him completely. Luckily, she hadn't silenced Feng Yi.
At this moment, while keeping Mengdie mentally distracted, Feng Yi was secretly counting down the time. Three minutes had passed since he sent the coordinates. Three minutes wasn't long or short, but a 9th generation Mecha could cover a great distance in that time. Taking into account the assembly time of standby soldiers and the startup time of the Mecha, not to mention that the command order can be carried out within the Mecha cockpit, it would realistically take about 4 minutes and 30 seconds. That is, 1 minute and 30 seconds later than the estimated time. If the Flame Legion could reach here within 5 minutes, the normal time would be 6 minutes and 30 seconds.
From this aspect, he was probably done for. But the question is, why didn't Mengdie rendezvous with the other four from the Jade Clear Sect after capturing him? Feng Yi could think of three reasons. The first one, even if Mengdie captured him, she wouldn't be able to meet Mingfei while carrying him. Of course, women's inherent physical disadvantages were one thing, but Mengdie was still powerful. In front of such high-level strength, carrying a person was no different from carrying a small object. But if Mengdie converted her soul into energy to generate power, that would not be the case.
As for the second reason, Mengdie was afraid of changes along the way, so she waited here and used her mental power to inform him of her location. This possibility was also quite high. As an X Ability Wielder, Mengdie's control of her mental ability should be above his. But why she didn't do so could be for two reasons. One, she lacked strength, and secondly, she was afraid he might escape, so she guarded here. But logically speaking, Mingfei should be arriving soon. Now, there was no sign of her. Granted, he managed to get far away in that instant earlier, but three minutes should be nearing its end. Unless, Mingfei could not sense Mengdie's presence.
From Feng Yi's perspective, Mengdie's mastery at the spiritual level was probably above his, but the spiritual level didn't mean what distance she could sense, it only meant how well she could express mental power.
It's like two women comparing beauty, with one saying she is beautiful and the other firmly asserting that she is more beautiful than the first. Such words are not accurate. From a scientific point of view, it's called subjective consciousness, with subjective factors accounting for the vast majority, especially when the difference in appearance is small to begin with. Moreover, makeup technology today is very advanced. The power of technology is limitless.
A third person is needed to ascertain the truth, but this so-called third person's answer is not entirely correct either, there are personal biases. The spiritual world and the above comparison can be said to be similar yet different. The division has always been very vague, with endless debates among experts and scholars around the world...
The most famous is Dr. Yoshida, a federal scientist who won the Nobel Prize. He believed that the strength of mental abilities depended on the range that could be sensed, after all, this was an extreme product of different eras.
The man with the highest level of mental ability in the federation, nicknamed "neurotic", claimed that the sensitivity of mental ability was the decisive factor.
Because the Sea of Consciousness was too intricate to be explained by advanced technology, the definitions proposed by the scientific community were vague and generalized. There were various opinions in the outside world. In fact, everyone interpreted it differently.
At least for now, Feng Yi could not detect the other four members of the Jade Clear Sect with his own mental power. Under these circumstances, it merely served to confirm Feng Yi's speculation. In fact, it wasn't that he couldn't sense the other four from the Jade Clear Sect, nor was it that Mengdie's mental ability was inadequate. On the contrary, both of their conditions were quite normal, so normal that Feng Yi felt it was becoming abnormal.
Since both of their mental abilities were normal, that indicated this wasn't an individual problem, and it was pointless to continue probing. All information from that area had been completely blocked.
People's mental abilities essentially exist as electromagnetic waves. They may appear in the form of dreams, they may just be a trace of thought, or they may be the imprint of a soul after death. With current technology, it can't be manifested through special means, but those with mental sensing abilities can sense it.
Because it had been blocked, both Feng Yi and Mengdie were unable to perceive it. What's more, under the current circumstances, even all forms of communication devices couldn't send or receive signals, let alone the weak electromagnetic waves of the human body.
It could be said that the electromagnetic waves generated by machinery were powerful but transient, capable of being captured and intercepted, but very limited in distance. However, the magnetic fields emitted by human mental abilities were different. They appear weak but with an extended length, and that's why Feng Yi could sense Mengdie's presence in Mardis. Although everyone's magnetic field is different, with larger or smaller, stronger or weaker ones, a skilled person like Mengdie undoubtedly had stronger mental power than ordinary people. And this was fundamentally why Feng Yi was able to detect Mengdie.
Of course, the above was just Feng Yi's personal speculation, estimating when the four from the Jade Clear Sect would leave the shield range according to this distance. The result was not optimistic. According to Feng Yi's speculation, the four from the Jade Clear Sect should have already arrived at this point. The reason they hadn't discovered his and Mengdie's traces was largely due to the advantage brought by the shielding system. In other words, the four were completely unaware that they had lost their way in a chaotic sea of electromagnetic fields.
With Feng Yi's insight, he had long noticed that Mengdie wasn't carrying any communication devices. What she wore on her hand was a bracelet, not a watch. The band in her hair was a ribbon, not a wireless communication clip.
It seems that he had won this battle. The few people from the Jade Clear Sect probably never expected that they would end up under the new airspace restriction device developed by the Blade Warriors.
Having thought this far, Feng Yi's smile had already taken on a more sinister tone. You rascals, this is the crystallization of the power of technology, huhuhuhu… emmmmmmm…
