Chapter 106: Escape
Until now, I finally understood what the so-called cherry juice I drank was.
What's even worse is that although I successfully resisted the pollution of the moon once before, from the moment the two moons turned into eyeballs and stared at this building, I could no longer resist it.
But the strange thing is that not only the cloud and thunder pattern, but even the trace of power that I had obtained from the Lord of the Apocalypse Sect at the beginning spontaneously resisted the erosion from the moon, allowing me to maintain my sanity and not go crazy.
The man in black was in much more pain. He lay on the ground, and it was obvious that he was trying his best to resist the moonlight, but his body still underwent some unstoppable changes. However, this man was wrapped in black clothes, so I couldn't see what specific changes had occurred to him.
Seeing that I showed no signs of mutation and was not forced to kneel like the men in black, Fan Buqiu narrowed his eyes, but his eyes became even more excited.
"Great, great! What a chosen vessel!"
As he spoke, Fan Buqiu strode towards me.
I barely held the knife across my body in a defensive stance.
Although the situation now seems quiet, it is extremely bad. The men in black have almost lost their combat effectiveness.
It's already difficult for me to resist the constant erosion of moonlight, and I can't fight back at all. At this moment, it's easy for Fan Buqiu to do anything he wants.
I was dragged out of the monitoring room by Fan Buqiu.
There is one last trump card, but it is too risky, so it has never been used. But the current situation forces us to do so.
I continued to pretend to be unable to resist, secretly concentrating my mind, preparing to launch a very small-scale but highest-intensity fear projection.
It is enough to target only Fan Buqiu.
This is a method of destroying both oneself and the enemy. Once used, there is a high probability that Fan Buqiu will lose control and turn into a monster, but I will also suffer almost irreversible mental damage and may even lose control on the spot.
Now everything is ready. I opened the eye on my arm and looked at Fan Buqiu.
At this moment, something unexpected happened.
A mechanical Tang sword flew out from the end of the corridor. Fan Buqiu slightly turned sideways and barely dodged it.
It’s Chen Yubing’s knife!
But at this point, I had already projected my fear with full force and was unable to contain it. Forcing myself to contain it would only cause great mental damage to myself.
I couldn't help but project and release my fear.
As I released the projection of fear, a sharp pain drilled into my brain.
I could no longer maintain my vision, as if something was about to break out of my body.
It's a sign of losing control!
At this point I was no longer able to control myself and allowed the chaotic forces to run rampant in my body.
But when I was half asleep, a soft thing wrapped me up. I didn't know where I was being transported to, and I just wanted to get rid of this annoying thing.
"Ji Ling, hold on a little longer!"
I heard someone calling my name, but I was too weak to answer.
"Leave this to me, you go help Sister Yubing!"
The next second, another reassuring force rose from the surroundings.
This power calmed my restless blood, but the power in my body still subconsciously resisted it.
Although this power was reassuring, it was also powerful and irresistible, and I soon succumbed to it, allowing it to flow through my every limb.
The strange thing is that this power did not stay in my body, but instead carried something away like water, which was quite comfortable.
And all those things that made me restless and caused me unbearable pain were taken away by this power.
“So tired…”
I mumbled unconsciously.
"It's okay, take a rest."
I don’t know whose voice was comforting me, but when I heard it, I actually chose to believe it and fell into a deep sleep.
…
When I woke up again, Chen Yubing was next to me, resting with his eyes closed. Looking around, I found myself in an unfamiliar hall filled with tables, which looked like a restaurant.
The temperature was a little low at night, and I couldn't help shivering from the cold.
My action woke up Chen Yubing who was sleeping beside me. She looked down at me and said with concern:
"How are you feeling? Are you feeling better?"
But I am a little confused.
My mind is still foggy, accompanied by an unspeakable pain.
I subconsciously said:
"Who are you……"
After hearing my question, a crack appeared on Chen Yubing's face, which had never had much expression.
I then realized that I seemed to have said something wrong, and quickly asked again:
"Yu Bing? I'm still alive?"
Seeing that I called out her name, Chen Yubing breathed a sigh of relief, her expression returned to normal, and she shook her head and said to me:
"Dead, we are all dead."
???
I was so frightened that I sat up straight immediately.
Who knew that the next second Chen Yubing couldn't help laughing:
"I'm kidding, you're not dead, no one is dead."
I looked at her accusingly.
It's even scarier when a serious person like Chen Yubing tells a joke!
"Huh...where are the others?"
Chen Yubing pointed to the dining table next to them, where Lin Hanning was sleeping on a soft chair.
"Xiao Lin used her own abilities to create a protective shield that could block out the fog. It lasted for three hours. She was too tired, so she went to sleep first."
I nodded, but in a blink of an eye I found that the man in black was sleeping alone in the corner, still holding the hedgehog needle tightly in his hand.
"he?"
I pointed at the man in black and cast a puzzled look at Chen Yubing.
"He was also from the Tiannan City Investigation Bureau." Chen Yubing whispered.
"Don't worry, he means no harm."
Since Chen Yubing said so, I nodded and felt slightly relieved.
I looked around, but didn't see Jiang Wang.
"Jiang Wang went to boil water."
As if he saw my confusion, Chen Yubing spoke first.
"What's going on? Where's Fan Buqiu?"
I clearly remember that I should be confronting Fan Buqiu at the Investigation Bureau base in Tiannan City.
"Fan Buqiu completely lost control. Jiang Wang, the guy in black over there and I worked together to kill him."
It’s… that simple?
Chen Yubing spoke so calmly that it made me feel a little funny how embarrassed I was before.
Seeing my incredible expression, Chen Yubing shook his head and said:
"It's not as simple as you think. It's much more complicated than it sounds. And even though Fan Buqiu is dead, the moon is still there. Our situation is still very dangerous."
After hearing what Chen Yubing said, I subconsciously turned my head and looked outside. The glass door of the restaurant was closed tightly. There was fog outside, but it didn't penetrate into the restaurant at all. It was Lin Hanning's protective shield that was working.
At this time, Jiang Wang came over with a few disposable beverage cups and a kettle.
"Ji Ling? You're awake!"
Recalling the previous conflict with him, I didn't answer him, but just turned my head away somewhat unnaturally.
Chen Yubing sighed upon seeing this.
"Ji Ling, please listen to me first."
