Chapter 223 Scattered Energy
What does "Drown Here for Me" mean?
Wow, wow.
The violent sound of water made Chen Xiao'er turn around suddenly. All the water tanks around her released water at the same time. The turbulent water flow washed the poisonous spider away. The water line reached her knees in a very short time!
Splash! Her legs slipped, her upper body lost balance instantly, and she fell into the water with her head and hands.
Bang!
What sound?
Ling and Xinnaya held her arms on the left and right and lifted her up. Chen Xiao'er looked up at the ceiling while floating up: the figure standing on the overpass seemed to be hit by something. He swayed in the air, then picked up a huge suitcase and ran away.
"Don't run, Gululu." She stretched out her hand impatiently, but the water had already reached her chest. When she opened her mouth, the shocking waves hit her in the face, filling her mouth with cold water.
Ling silently hugged Xiao'e and kicked Xinnaya.
"What are you doing?!" Xinnaya was unwilling to suffer any loss. She held Chen Xiao'er's left hand tightly with both hands and kicked her feet back and forth in the water.
Even after being transformed into human form by Chen Xiao'e, the apostles and demons can still glide freely in the water.
Crash, crash.
The flood formed several waterfalls, and the water in the room swirled around like a washing machine. Meanwhile, the two people nearby were still kicking furiously, tugging at Chen Xiao'er's hands and spinning them around.
"Ah, ugh!" Her face turned pale and she punched Xinnaya in the chest: Stop making trouble!
"Tsk." Xinnaya withdrew her foot unwillingly.
Seeing Xiao'e's painful expression, Ling quickly protected her shoulders and slid forward for a long distance like a fish.
Chen Xiao'er lay in Ling's arms, watching the unknown enemy scurry to the overpass. The Chen family's affairs were still unresolved, and she truly didn't want another terrifying enemy to emerge from the shadows.
By the time the water reached the top, he would have escaped…if only someone could have caught him.
Boom!
The iron door in front of the bad guy burst open, and a figure flew out from the door, pounced on the bad guy, and knocked his suitcase far away.
The joy on Chen Xiao'er's face was fleeting. After seeing the figure running out, her eyes widened in horror.
"Ling, go save Xiaotong! I can float on my own!" She pushed Ling anxiously. Xiaotong was only a few years old, how could she possibly fight off a dangerous adult? What if the other party had a gun or a dagger?
The water tank and the overpass were very close together, so climbing up along the water tank rack would quickly rescue Xiaotong. Her upper limb strength was not enough, so replacing it with Zero would definitely be enough.
"Okay." Ling agreed decisively. Before leaving, she grabbed Xinnaya's hair and said, "She's going too."
"Let's go." Xinnaya glanced at the frightened girl slyly, and knew that Ling would not let Chen Xiao'er stay with her alone.
Although he didn't want to become an apostle's lackey, the power of that unknown projection was too tempting. Ascension was, after all, the devil's instinct, and apart from the allure of "possessing Chen Xiao'e," no other temptation could compare to it.
They stopped fighting and two of them carried Xiao'ai and swam towards the nearest water tank.
The three of them used the rising water to grab the edge of the iron frame and climbed up one after another. Chen Xiao'e climbed up carefully, her hands and feet were too slippery and she almost fell several times.
Fortunately, Zero and Xinnaya had excellent core strength. They climbed the iron frame very quickly, as if their fingertips would bounce back as soon as they touched the metal surface, and they could easily flip to a higher place.
By the time Chen Xiao'er climbed to the top of the water tank, the two of them had already jumped into the overpass. Together with Xiaotong, they pinned down the figure and started beating him up!
......
"Bang."
Milo's eyes were filled with blood-red flames, and her lips touched lightly, making a crisp sound.
The bullet emitted a pure golden spiral in mid-air, appearing and disappearing during the firing process.
Bang.
It followed its trajectory and hit the target, making the same sound as before.
A golden spiral unfolded, stirring every ounce of energy within the projection. The body of the unknown being disintegrated spiritually, releasing vast swathes of energy within Miroku's vision.
Whoosh, a green light peeled off from the gap, like a plastic bag blown by the wind, escaping at an extremely fast speed.
"Oh, I have some bad news and some good news for you." Milo muttered to himself, "His true form isn't here, so the one who escaped is most likely something else, like someone with toxic power."
Professor Milo immediately understood what the devil meant. It turned out that the unknown existence parasitized its projection on the person who was suspected to have the power of poison.
Now that the devil has smashed His outer shell, Toxin is naturally unwilling to be killed, because He has arrived in His true form!
"How is it? That thing is very dangerous." Miroku raised the corner of his lips: "Time is almost up. If you don't give me an extension, how can I catch it in time and prevent the poison from spreading to the human world?"
That's what she calls bad news and good news.
The power of the poison is extremely harmful to humans, so of course it cannot be allowed to escape. However, the devil can "just" intercept the seriously injured poison and completely eliminate it.
The process is so simple, like snapping your fingers, and the cost is just a small unknown risk. What are you afraid of? I am a devil who loves humanity. Can't you feel this love?
Even at such a critical moment, faced with such a tempting proposal, the professor still thought carefully.
"How long will it take you?"
"It's running very fast. I need at least three hours to chase it. You'd better hurry up. The longer you delay, the more time it will take."
The fire in Miroku's pupils was about to go out, and she heard the professor's answer in the last few seconds of the countdown.
【“No, I trust my colleagues.”】And I don’t trust you.
Haha, it turns out that the one who knows me best is “you”.
"Okay~ Then, I'll go harvest the energy now." She deliberately winked playfully with Miroku's body, and then jumped down from a height.
Milo avoided Chen Xiao'er's sight, and the flames of light flowed, carrying her body through the "wall" and flashing onto the overpass from the other side.
Since Chen Xiao'er was watching here, Ling, Xinnaya and Chen Xiaotong had to raise their hands and hit the projection hard, trying to use physical means to hammer out the abnormal core.
Boom, boom, boom.
"Tsk tsk." Milo looked at the figure crouching on the ground with its head in its hands and shook its head softly. How long will this fight last? Don't scare my poor Xiao'er.
She raised the silver-white revolver and pulled the trigger neatly.
Bang.
A cluster of blood-red flowers bloomed, the projection of the unknown existence dissipated like ripples, and the body of the poison collapsed into an ordinary piece of flesh.
Crackling, crackling.
Balls of fleshy powder splattered between the overpass and the corridor. Milo stepped onto the overpass in high-heeled boots and reached out to grab the suitcase that had been thrown far away.
Chen Xiaotong pounced out the moment the pieces of meat scattered, rubbing her two claws against the suitcase and her tail making clanging sounds on the metal shell.
The suitcase, now deprived of its owner, creaked under the weight and cracked open with a click.
The candy balls and the cover exploded together, scattering on the floor with a crackling sound, and rolled far away.
These sugar balls are...the energy source after mutation!
They didn't need to waste time thinking, and at the same time reached out to the candy balls on the ground -
......
"Xiaotong!" Chen Xiao'er screamed while lying on top of the water tank.
Chen Xiaotong, how could you pick something up and eat it? Those candies and chocolates fell out of the bad guy's suitcase. God knows if they are poisonous!
After she finished yelling, she saw her sister tremble a little, and then she ate more vigorously.
Xiaotong just stuck out her little butt, reached out to the ground with both hands, grabbed a handful of candies and stuffed them into her mouth, eating them with a loud smacking sound.
Boom!
Invisible thunder struck her head, and Chen Xiao'er hurriedly wanted to call for help to stop it, but when she looked closely - what a guy.
Xinnaya's eating habits are even more exaggerated than Xiaotong's. She buried her head in the suitcase and moved around like a big cat rummaging through a trash can.
Ling didn't eat while picking up the candies. She just picked up the candies at a very fast speed and stuffed these small candies into her pockets one by one. She was so focused on picking up the candies that she didn't pay any attention to the people around her.
Chen Xiao'er was so angry that she felt dizzy, and she even saw Professor Milo.
The professor's presence was still strong. She walked to Xiaotong with graceful steps, and then... picked up a fallen candy ball and put it in her mouth.
Thump, thump, thump. Chen Xiao'er's heart completely died.
Fortunately, the water level had already reached a position close to the overpass. She jumped halfway and fell into the water. After struggling twice, she successfully grabbed the fence of the overpass and climbed in.
......
Miroku put a candy into his mouth, and energy instantly exploded on the tip of his tongue.
It seems that Chen Xiao'er's ability has both changed the essence of matter and not changed the essence of matter, leaving candy and energy in a Schrödinger state.
If I think of candy as candy, then maybe it is candy. And since I know that candy is energy, I can also use it to gain energy?
The devil was still trying to figure out the specific manifestation of [Return to Zero], when the fire in his eyes suddenly went out, and the finger that was pressed against his lips was also put down.
"There's a dangerous demon nearby. You're too impatient."
Professor Miroku ignored the devil's chatter and half-crouched down to pick up the candies on the ground with Zero. There were still dozens of candies left, and they couldn't let the devil and the newborn snake eat them all.
These candies and chocolates were extremely valuable materials. If her guess was correct, these candies would be a very portable energy reserve.
It can also be used to detect the zeroing operation mode.
Just as she picked up the second one, she heard a muffled splash coming from the water surface.
Xiao Ai fell down? !
The people who were eating the candies and those who were picking up the candies stopped at the same time. When they saw Chen Xiao'er grabbing the railing and climbing up like a drowned rat, they quickly seized the last opportunity to eat and pick up the candies.
"Chen-Xiao-Tong--" Chen Xiao'er was lying on the ground with disheveled hair. She crawled for a long distance using her hands and feet before she could stand firmly.
She stumbled to the suitcase and kicked Xinnaya's butt away, then hugged Xiaotong's waist and dragged her back: "Don't eat anything on the ground! Be careful, it's poisonous!"
"Gugugugu." Xiaotong's cheeks puffed up like a little hamster. She chewed several candy balls into pieces with a crunching sound and swallowed them with a gulp.
Seeing her sister and her companions' stubborn behavior, Chen Xiao'er's blood pressure almost went through the roof.
She looked at the motionless suspect on the ground, then at the rising water level, and stepped on the scattered candy balls.
Click, click, click.
The cracked candy leaked out bits of energy, lingering around the girl's legs.
She raised her arms vigorously: "Run! I order you to run!"
