Apocalypse: I Have A Multiplier System - Chapter 473

Chapter 473: Chapter 473: Void Dismantle
The illusion crumbled the moment it touched her mental defenses.

The gravity field was absorbed and redirected, slamming its own caster into the ceiling.

Thunder arced toward her but split off mid-air, grounding itself in the steel floor.

The fire, as before, only seemed to energize her.

And the speedster? She simply caught him mid-blink, slamming her elbow into his ribs and taking him out with one hit.

Panic spread.

The elite soldiers who once stood proud were now breaking formation, scrambling like ants.

Some even threw down their weapons and tried to flee, but Su Jiyai’s squad, positioned at every escape route, cut off their path.

Her elemental fighters had retaken the hallways.

Qin Feng hovered in the air above the base, controlling the terrain and reshaping the battlefield as needed. Any reinforcement that tried to get in was either crushed or teleported far away.

The entire institute had become a fortress… under her control.

And she was its queen now.

In less than an hour, all 1200 reinforcements had either fallen unconscious, surrendered, or lay motionless on the ground.

Su Jiyai stood in the center of the room, not a scratch on her.

Her breathing was steady.

Her gaze was ice.

Madam Queen pointed at Su Jiyai in exasperation and said,

“How…how come you have…so many elements! You have fire…strength, speed, and even agility! You are even immune to psychic elements and have a protective barrier too…do you have psychic ability too?”

At her words, Su Jiyai paused.

She was so busy with her days that she hardly experimented.

As for being immune to the psychic ability users, Su Jiyai attributed it to her genes as a werewolf, but after hearing Madam Queen’s words, Su Jiyai started to doubt everything.

Maybe…everything wasn’t as simple as it looked.

However…now wasn’t the time to delve into it.

Su Jiyai smiled, slow and dark, her eyes glowing again with that faint red hue that sent chills even through the steel walls around her. The air turned heavy.

“I told you,” she said, her voice low and cold, “this would be your last sunrise.”

Madam Queen took a step back but forced herself to laugh. Her voice was hoarse but confident.

“You think you’ve won just because of some overpowered tricks?”

She straightened her spine. “You’re not the only one full of surprises.”

Then, her entire body began to change.

The wrinkles on her face didn’t smooth out. She didn’t become younger. In fact, her appearance became even more terrifying.

Her skin turned pale gray, her veins glowing a sickly purple. Her fingers twisted into long claws, and her back arched unnaturally.

Thick, dark energy exploded from her body like a storm. The walls cracked. The floor trembled.

“I am not just a leader,” she hissed. “I am the Void Queen.”

A black halo shimmered around her, spinning like a wheel made of darkness. Her unique power:

Void Dismantle — the ability to disassemble anything at an atomic level, from energy to elements to matter itself.

Armor? Torn apart. Powers? Eaten by the void. Living beings? Reduced to twitching fragments if touched directly.

No element could stand against it — at least, not easily.

Su Jiyai’s smile faded into something colder. She took a fighting stance.

But Madam Queen wasn’t done.

Her eyes twinkled with sick joy as she tilted her head. “You’re here for that boy, aren’t you?”

Su Jiyai tensed, her jaw locking.

“Oh, I remember him.” Madam Queen chuckled darkly.

“Small. Black eyes. Trembled like a leaf when we dragged him from his cell. He cried for his mother, you know.”

Su Jiyai’s fingers curled into fists.

Madam Queen took a step closer, the black halo pulsing.

“The guards had fun with him. We tested all kinds of serums. Burned his nerves, then healed them. Just so we could do it again. His screams… oh, they were music.”

Su Jiyai’s breathing grew heavier.

“We crushed his little fingers one by one. Asked him how long he could scream before passing out.

Turns out, it was forty-seven seconds. And when we cut into his spine with that special scalpel? He passed out in just ten.”

“Stop,” Su Jiyai whispered, voice shaking.

But Madam Queen only smiled wider.

“I made him watch as we injected parasites into another kid’s brain right in front of him. Said it would be his turn next.”

“Stop.”

“Do you know how many times he begged for death?”

“I said—”

Madam Queen never got to finish the sentence.

Su Jiyai’s aura exploded.

Flames erupted around her like a living storm.

The floor cracked under her feet. Her body vanished — just a blur of shadow and fire — and appeared right in front of Madam Queen in a blink.

She didn’t hold back.

Her fist slammed into Madam Queen’s gut, sending her flying back, crashing through the steel wall like a cannonball.

The entire hallway behind them collapsed with the impact.

Su Jiyai followed, her coat whipping behind her. Her eyes were wild now, full of rage.

Madam Queen groaned and pulled herself up, black tendrils wrapping around her wounds to heal them.

Su Jiyai didn’t wait.

She charged again — this time with fire wrapped around her fists. Her speed was terrifying. Her movements, sharper than any blade.

Madam Queen tried to use her Void Dismantle.

A wave of black energy surged toward Su Jiyai — the kind that should’ve torn apart flesh, armor, and soul in a second.

But it didn’t work the way she expected.

Su Jiyai’s armor, forged from unknown space minerals and blessed by energy crystals she’d absorbed, resisted it. Not completely, but enough.

The Void licked at her shoulder and left a scorch mark, but didn’t tear her apart.

Su Jiyai winced — and then spun low, ducking under the second wave, launching a fiery kick into Madam Queen’s side.

BOOM.

The hallway exploded.

Metal flew. Lights shattered. The air twisted with fire and void energy colliding like two beasts locked in a death match.

Madam Queen snarled and lunged, claws glowing with void energy, slashing at Su Jiyai’s chest.

But Su Jiyai caught both her wrists, eyes locked with hers.

“You tortured a child,” she growled.

Her flames flared, creeping up her arms.

“You broke innocent bodies just for fun.”

She kneed Madam Queen in the stomach.

“You made a mistake.”

Then, she tossed her straight into the ground, forming a crater.

Su Jiyai dropped down after her, fists ablaze, raining blow after blow — each one with the force of a meteor.

Madam Queen shrieked and tried to retaliate, her void energy forming tendrils to protect her.

Some wrapped around Su Jiyai’s arm, trying to pull her essence apart — but it didn’t work.

Su Jiyai’s internal cultivation and her werewolf-enhanced genes made her far more resistant than any test subject.

Madam Queen’s smile finally cracked.

She realized — too late — that she wasn’t fighting a soldier.

She was fighting vengeance incarnate.

Madam Queen coughed blood as Su Jiyai held her down with a foot to her chest, flames crackling around her body like a beast finally unchained.

The corridor was a mess — twisted metal, shattered lights, a floor scorched black.

But Su Jiyai’s eyes burned brighter than any of it. She wasn’t calm anymore. She wasn’t merciful. She was fury in flesh.

“You better not pass out,” Su Jiyai said coldly, her voice low and sharp as a dagger. “Because the second you do… you’ll wake up in a very different place.”

Madam Queen’s pupils shrank. She opened her mouth to speak, but Su Jiyai leaned down, her breath hot with rage.

“You’ll wake up strapped to a metal table,” Su Jiyai whispered, “with your eyes gone. Gone, Madam Queen. I’ll make sure you feel every second of it. Every day, I’ll throw cold water on you to wake you up. Then I’ll whip your back raw, and I’ll force you to sprinkle salt over it. Again and again.”

Madam Queen whimpered, trying to crawl away, but Su Jiyai grabbed her by the hair and slammed her back down.

Her voice turned twisted, mocking.

“Sounds familiar? Isn’t that what you did to those kids?”

Madam Queen gasped, trying to breathe. “W-We were… just trying to help them awaken… superpowers,” she stuttered.

Su Jiyai’s eyes narrowed.

Madam Queen went on, her voice trembling, not from guilt — but from desperation.

“We… we made a superpower awkaneing potion! But it had a side effect. It was too painfully.

If someone could endure enough pain, real pain, their powers would awaken. But adults — they break too fast! Ten minutes max before they die!”

She coughed again, her skin twitching with leftover void energy.

“But children…” she grinned then, eyes wild.

“Children who’ve been through pain since birth — they could endure more. One boy lasted an hour and twenty minutes before he passed out. Another… he didn’t die for two whole hours!”

Su Jiyai’s stomach turned. Her hands shook. But not with fear — with hatred.

“And one girl, she lasted three,” Madam Queen said, her smile stretching unnaturally wide.

“Three hours! That’s our record. That’s proof! We’re close to a breakthrough. A potion that could awaken powers in anyone! We’ll be remembered as legends!”
