After noticing the appearance of the black carriage, Ed and Adele decided to stay put and continue to wait and see. On the other side, Edmund, who had just got off the carriage, talked briefly with his men and then fixed his eyes on the charred house in the distance.
"Is that it? Hehe... This is the most suspicious place in this area... Let's go take a look first..."
As he spoke, Edmund and his men prepared to walk directly to the charred building. In the dark among the crowd, Ed and Adele silently watched everything in front of them, intending not to contact these mysterious visitors, but to observe first and then make plans.
…
In the dimly lit, luxuriously decorated small room, the man who was stroking the scepter with his eyes closed in a state of rest suddenly opened his eyes slowly, and a captivating light was revealed in his brown eyes.
"You're quite perceptive, Miss Xing... You noticed something as soon as Black Dog arrived. You're quite capable...
"But if you do this, you won't bump into each other. In that case, I'll give you a push..."
Muttering, the man continued to close his eyes, then stood up from the sofa and raised the abnormally large ten-foot-long scepter in his hand. The spherical head of the scepter covered with red canvas now emitted a strange glow.
…
At the Tanmu intersection, Edmund was about to lead the team to the downstairs of the charred building for further inspection, but at this moment, a loud noise attracted his attention.
"Hey! How are you walking? You're leaning towards me. Are you up to something bad?"
"I'm going my own way, it's none of your business! Are you trying to pick a fight on purpose?"
Hearing two loud voices, Edmund stopped and looked towards the place where the voices came from. He saw two young men at the intersection who were in conflict with each other and were swearing at each other fiercely.
"Tell me! Did you intend to do something bad to me just now?"
"So what if you have bad intentions! I've been displeased with you for a long time!"
Two men were arguing loudly in the middle of the intersection. While arguing, they took out the knives they carried with them and gestured at each other, as if they might start fighting at any time.
Although the two people were arguing so fiercely that it seemed like they had a deep grudge against each other, if you listened carefully to the content of their argument, you would find that they were arguing about nothing but trivial matters. The reason for the quarrel between the two sides was that they just disliked each other when they passed by each other on the street! ?
Not only this person, but after this person, some other pedestrians on the intersection also suddenly started quarreling loudly with each other. There were pedestrians quarreling with beggars, bar waiters quarreling with customers, couples quarreling, and fruit stall owners quarreling with customers.
"Hey! Hey! Why did you only give me this little money? You look so shabby, why don't you give me more, you stingy guy!"
"It's good enough to give it to you! Do you want to eat a fist, you stinky beggar!"
…
"What kind of service attitude is that! How can you talk to customers like that?"
"What do you think of my attitude?"
…
"You bastard! Did you just glance at another woman? The woman wearing sunglasses! I'm going to kill you!"
"Come on, ugly woman! I'll kill you and marry someone else!"
…
"There's something wrong with your scale. How can it be 16 pounds?"
"You are deliberately looking for trouble, right? Just tell me whether you want it or not!"
…
Suddenly, the entire intersection was filled with noise. People started arguing over trivial matters, and the arguments became more and more intense. The initial quarrels quickly escalated into life attacks on each other, and then to death threats. Then they even took out the weapons they carried with them and started to fight.
At the small Tanmu intersection, more than ten groups of quarreling parties suddenly appeared out of nowhere. The conflicts between the two sides escalated rapidly, and it seemed that they were about to fight each other and cause a bloody incident.
Ed and Adele, who were standing on the side of the road, couldn't help but frown when they saw this scene. Adele looked at the scene at the intersection and spoke seriously.
"This is the ability of the Desire Dancer..."
"You want to lead Wuqiu... You have stirred up so many conflicts at once... Are your abilities really that strong?"
"Well... this is what we are good at. We can instantly stimulate the small desires generated by a moment of dissatisfaction and expand them into a blood feud, making complete strangers hate each other so deeply that they turn their swords against each other...
"With this kind of power, my teacher is nearby! Wait for me to calm down the desire that is aroused by their power."
Adele said this, and then she began to stare at the noisy crowd in front of her, and began to use her ability to listen to the boiling hearts of the people on the scene.
On the other side, the sudden abnormal situation among the crowd also attracted the attention of Edmund and his hunters. Edmund cast his gaze towards the frenzied crowd, and his originally relaxed brows frowned.
"This... is a Beyonder ability, and it is a Beyonder ability that has recently affected the Coal Ash District. It is now manifesting on a large scale?"
Looking at the scene in front of him, Edmund thought to himself that facing the contradiction that this series of actions was rapidly escalating and continuing might result in a large number of casualties, he couldn't help but feel nervous and began to feel a little anxious.
'This extraordinary ability has started to harm people again, and this time the scale is so large. If it is not stopped immediately, it will lead to a tragedy! We must act immediately and find the source of the extraordinary! '
While thinking in his mind, Edmund began to scan everything around him, as if trying to find the source of the extraordinary power that affected the scene before him.
At this time, in order to save people, Edmund's desire to "find the source of extraordinary power" grew stronger and stronger. Unconsciously, a force that he could not perceive began to guide his desire in a predetermined direction.
Guided by an urgent desire in his heart, Edmund looked across the street, where he saw a man and a woman standing there. Although there was chaos all around them, they seemed quite calm and kept staring at the chaotic crowd in front of them.
In Edmund's eyes, this was very unnatural, especially the woman with sunglasses, who stood out so much in his eyes at this moment.
"I found you... the mastermind."
