Chapter 84 Ability
Having said this, Shi Jing suddenly burst into tears and could no longer speak.
Selina revoked her ability, and the people around her woke up at the same time.
Only Shi Jing looked at her with tears on her face: "What happened to me just now?"
"It's okay, go in first. I'll bring Jasmine back for you."
"Okay, okay."
This time, Shi Jing did not object, and Kirian pushed her into the room.
Serena instructed the security guards, "Keep an eye on these two."
Only then did he turn around and leave with peace of mind.
The old housekeeper asked him, "Miss, is everything she said true? What if she wants to deceive you again this time?"
Serena nodded. "I roughly understand the rest of the story. I think Shi Jing really just wants to rescue Molly, so she'll use our power. But if we bring her along, it might anger her, and it would be very inconvenient for us."
"On the contrary, this time," Serena pointed to her head, "we have the upper hand."
Just now, Selena was suddenly in a mysterious state, awakening a thinking-related ability, similar to wide-range mind-reading hypnosis.
The person who worried her more was Michael.
He has no special ability to protect himself, and is controlled by people with special abilities. Once he fights with others, he is the one who gets hurt instead.
Now that she has been away for so long, she doesn't know how Michael is doing.

When we arrived at the restaurant on the third floor, the hall was in a mess.
"What's going on?"
Serena grabbed a nearby security guard.
The security guard was about to get angry, but when he saw it was Serena, he immediately replied:
"Ms. Serena, we didn't fire the first shot. Someone started hurting people."
"Damn it,"
Selina didn't see Michael among the remaining panicked crowd, and didn't know whether he was still in the room or had left.
No matter what, he is a hostage.
At this moment, she suddenly remembered what Shi Jing had said just now. "Those with special abilities can sense each other's special abilities. Although it is very weak, it can be used as a basis for judgment."
Selena just thought of this method.
She quickly detected the direction of two vague psychics.
"They are four floors up, in Colonel Chapman's rooms."
"Oh no! They didn't see any bodies of people with special abilities in the warehouse and thought they would be in the living room."
But that's not necessarily the case.
Selina briefly comforted everyone, including the crew member who died from gunshot wounds, and quickly came upstairs.
Colonel Chapman's room is a luxurious suite closest to the porthole and is very large.
So they also put the belongings and luggage they brought with them into the room.
The rectangular wooden box that was originally thought to be a statue has been opened, and cold nitrogen gas is coming out of it, as ethereal as smoke.
Lying inside was a handsome man with white hair and closed eyes. He was frail and had his eyes tightly closed, as if he had been sleeping for a long time.
However, it was obvious that at this temperature, a normal person would have lost their body temperature long ago, but his face was faintly pink.
Michael and a man with a gloomy face were already standing in the room, applying a protective shield to them.
Colonel Chapman had fallen to the ground in pain. The soldiers in charge of escorting him stood by with guns, but they did not dare to start attacking because their commander was their hostage.
Michael's eyes lit up when he saw her, "Serena?"
Serena wasn't very enthusiastic.
He looked at Serena's cold attitude, seeming a little regretful. "Oh, it seems you have discovered my true identity. However, my true form is not bad either, much better than this brat you like. I can help you kill him and then take you away. What do you think?"
As he spoke, he also used Michael's body to wink at her. It was inexplicably greasy.
After hearing his words, Selena wanted to stab the knife directly into him, if it weren't for the protective light curtain.
She said expressionlessly: "I'm sorry, I don't know you. Please get out of my classmate Michael's body."
The person who used Michael's body thought it was very funny, and his eyes lit up when he heard this.
"Oh my, I really like your little temper. If you agree, I can not only let you and your family go, but also let your boyfriend go. What do you think?"
Hearing his words, Colonel Chapman, who was lying on the ground, became furious: "Do you think you are still acting? Their protective shield will not last long. Attack quickly. They are just stalling for time."
As expected, as soon as he finished speaking, he was kicked hard by the man next to "Michael", "Shut your stinky mouth!"
Selena realized that this was the boyfriend Shi Jing was talking about.
His ability is similar to forming a protective shield that can provide shelter and support to the man who controls Michael.
It seems that soul possession is not something that can be accomplished in an instant, and it requires time and a certain distance to be transferred.
Otherwise the person in Michael's body could easily switch.
At this moment, the man's body has recovered from the low temperature, and his body temperature and breathing have gradually returned. If he is given some more time, he will definitely open his eyes.
So this man's purpose was indeed to buy him time.
Colonel Chapman's story was not necessarily complete.
They must have transported this body secretly. Otherwise, even if there were fewer ships in the port due to the impact of the doomsday, there would still be no shortage of military facilities.
Therefore, they originally intended to confuse this group of people and carry out a secret transfer.
Originally, all of this had nothing to do with Serena. She shouldn't have interfered in the duel and competition between the two parties.
But when it came to Michael, she had to take care of it.
Michael was clearly still trying to persuade her with both emotion and reason. "Look, I'm more handsome than your boyfriend, and within the organization, I'm considered a fairly important figure. Sweetheart, you don't know what the future holds. If you continue to drift on this cruise ship, you'll only die."
"As long as you continue to follow me, you won't have to worry about food and clothing, and your life will definitely be better than before the apocalypse. I heard that you still have a grandfather and mother, so you can bring them along to join our organization and serve us."
Selena felt extremely strange hearing him speak such glib words in Michael's voice.
While trying to activate her own abilities, she observed the actions of the two men and prayed silently that Michael would not be completely controlled by him.
At this moment, Michael's two arms suddenly started fighting at odds, hitting each other left and right.
He shouted, "Selina, don't believe him. This man is full of lies."
"Also, I'm not ugly, he is, and I'm strong."
