Chapter 109 Battle
Although the eighteenth floor of the hotel was pitch black, the lights were on in some of the floors below, making the corridor brightly lit. It was hard to feel nervous when getting on the elevator.
However, He Jingtong also remembered what the manager had said before. He looked at the three people reflected in the elevator mirror and pressed the two elevator buttons for numbers 16 and 18.
Then he said, "I will take the elevator directly to the 18th floor, and you will go up from the 16th floor, leaving one floor between us as an emergency buffer."
Qi Xueyi and Jian Zirui did not object to this and agreed.
Unlike Qi Xueyi and Jian Zirui, He Jingtong, who often sparred with Jing Yunsong, was exceptionally good in both physical strength and martial arts. In addition, he could also use his unique lightning power, and his reaction speed had long been trained.
If the elevator was affected on the 18th floor and suddenly fell down, He Jingtong could tear the elevator door open with his bare hands, or simply pick up a knife and cut the entire elevator door.
Soon, the elevator stopped on the 16th floor. When Qi Xueyi and Jian Zirui went down, they said, "Take care of yourself."
Afterwards, the elevator door slowly closed, and the two of them walked towards the staircase entrance of the emergency passage.
He Jingtong looked up at the top of the elevator, watching the originally normal environment gradually being filled with the color of rotten oranges.
The lights inside the elevator also seemed to be affected by some unknown factor, flickering continuously until they went out completely with a "pop".
As expected, the elevator door did not open.
In the darkness, He Jingtong stared at the violently shaking elevator with eyes that had blended into the night. The elevator was shaking as if it was being grasped by an invisible giant hand.
But He Jingtong inside the elevator is not a toy in a box. He can easily find the exact landing point to maintain balance.
In the blink of an eye, the Nine Passes in his hand were taken out.
The unusually long ceremonial sword has long become He Jingtong's most handy weapon.
The pitch-black blade had no sense of existence in the darkness until the sound of wind breaking through the air was heard inside the elevator.
Then in the blink of an eye, the elevator door was easily cut into a square shape like a block of tofu.
He Jingtong kicked hard, and the interior environment of the eighteenth floor of the hotel came into his sight impatiently.
There were particularly obvious traces of friction on the wall, and there were also some broken pieces of red wine bottles and wine on the ground. In addition, there were some broken hairs connected to the scalp tissue.
Unexpectedly, it exudes a sense of dirtiness and chaos.
Especially here, there is no light yet.
A lightning ball formed by soul power soon appeared in He Jingtong's hand. The spiritualist's perspective allowed him to clearly see the environment brightening up under the effect of the power.
Afterwards, He Jingtong also saw a figure sitting paralyzed in front of the door of a suite.
Even without going over, he could see that the man had stopped breathing and his heart was no longer beating.
Death caused by supernatural events is something that has never been impossible.
In particular, when the spirits kill humans, their movement trajectories far exceed the normal reaction speed of humans.
In other words, ordinary people who fight against supernatural beings have no idea how they died.
Therefore, there is no situation where emotions fall into extremes.
How could the emotions go to the extreme if the brain doesn't have that kind of reaction speed?
.
The original alien spirit in the five-member team-building team, as well as the two people from the previous and next generations, are all the original people who were retained on this floor.
The roles of the two people of the previous and next generations to the original alien spirits are like the attitude of the little girl alien in the original hospital towards He Wanchen.
The spirits wanted them dead.
But as a spirit of jealousy, it will only be more procrastinating than rage, in other words, it will play with its prey.
Therefore, it can be determined that the people who died here were those who came down from the eighteenth floor.
Various thoughts flashed through his mind. He Jingtong couldn't take this lifeless person away at this moment, so he could only choose to take off his coat and clothes to retain the last bit of dignity for the deceased.
Afterwards, the teenager carried the deceased aside and reached out to push open the door that the deceased had been leaning against.
The moment He Jingtong stretched out his hand to open the door, the color that had originally appeared from the outside as a very rich orange like a rotten orange now looked more like a gas sealed in a container.
The moment the door opened, he rushed out.
The boy frowned and looked inside.
At this time, there were two people in the room who were tied up tightly and had rags stuffed in their mouths.
The two men were in a frenzy, with bloodstains all over their bodies. There were large pieces of broken glass around them, which were the wounds caused by the floor-to-ceiling windows that were originally used for viewing being shattered.
Their eyes were also filled with fear and terror. In addition, their lower bodies were also partially wet, showing that they had long lost their human rationality.
At that time, a weird and ugly ghost was hanging upside down on the ceiling like a crawler, with its head tilted downward, looking ugly like a ghost.
It looked at He Jingtong with an inhuman appearance and gave a weird and eerie smile.
The knife in He Jingtong's hand was also pointed directly at it.
"Who allowed you to look down on humanity?" He Jingtong is perhaps also an extreme human supremacist to some extent.
At least at this moment, his desire to kill the alien spirit was extremely strong.
In the sight, the two tied-up men in the distance seemed to have completely lost their dignity, but they still shook their heads vigorously at He Jingtong, signaling him to leave and never step into this room.
But in fact, He Jingtong understood the abnormality of this room faster and more than they thought. Even when he saw everything in the room clearly, He Jingtong already understood that this place had become the realm of supernatural spirits.
This is not a general pattern of a boundary, but a force field formed after releasing power within a certain range.
The realm is the proof of S-level, and releasing power to create an environment that is beneficial to oneself is the usual method of A-level.
This is because once the soul power is not strong enough, it is impossible to release the power over a large range, let alone subjectively form an environment that is beneficial to oneself.
This also means that this alien spirit is at least upper-middle A-level.
Moreover, it is the kind of spirit that is clearly aware of the existence of the spiritual master.
Maybe it also watched the live broadcast——
But none of that matters.
From the moment the boy chose to say, "Why do the spirits look down on humans?", he stepped into the room without any hesitation.
It was like passing through a barrier, a feeling of obvious obstruction spread throughout my body.
But later, all five senses seemed to be filled with that rotten and alien aura.
When He Jingtong took the initiative to take the stand, the two tied-up humans shed tears uncontrollably.
It wasn't like the excitement that comes from seeing someone coming to save you. Instead, it was more like the fear and terror that comes from knowing that the person will die with you.
After a while, the strange ghost jumped down from the ceiling.
It also has the general appearance of a human being, with clear images of the limbs, head, and trunk, but the entire body seems to have been deliberately stretched and sliced thin, like a piece of paper.
The alien was about two and a half meters tall, which looked huge and unusual in this environment with a ceiling height of three and a half meters. When He Jingtong aimed his knife at it, he could already clearly feel the orange power entangled around his ankles.
It was just like when I faced that strange spirit at the reservoir.
Just like when he took the initiative to step into the water, He Jingtong had put himself in a disadvantageous position when he took the initiative to step into the force field.
But he was not afraid. After taking a deep breath, the young man pointed the tip of the knife in his hand directly at the location of the alien's heart.
That is usually the core of the alien.
This action was a declaration of war, and he was ready for any confrontation. But before he swung his sword forward, he felt the impact of a sudden impact on his body.
The boy's back hit the wall violently, causing the putty and decorative paintings on the wall to fall to the ground with a chaotic crackling sound.
He Jingtong felt a tightness in his throat, and suddenly realized that the strange spirit had returned to its original position.
Returned to the position where it had just stood.
Obviously, all of this is not just about speed.
Although He Jingtong's body pain was blocked, some inertial reaction still made him hunch forward when he stood up.
He wiped the red from the corners of his mouth. He should have been angry because of the attack, but he remained unusually calm, with obvious scrutiny and judgment in his eyes.
Due to insufficient intelligence, He Jingtong was unable to estimate the abilities and characteristics of this alien spirit, but he knew that the best way to obtain information was through fighting.
Outside the door, the footsteps of teammates can be heard.
He Jingtong also took the initiative to welcome the strange spirit.
His speed was far beyond that of ordinary people, so even if the alien spirit used its strange ability, He Jingtong's knife was still able to hit the alien spirit head-on.
The metallic contact made He Jingtong's eyes flash with surprise, but in the next second, the young man quickly withdrew his knife, but in the blink of an eye, he quickly exerted force and swung the knife a second time, completely cutting off the arm of the alien body that was like iron.
"Your ability can only be used in this force field." He Jingtong quickly retreated to the door and blocked Qi Xueyi and Jian Zirui who almost stepped in.
"Don't come in." He Jingtong turned his back to the two of them. He held the knife in both hands, with the tip of the knife pointing directly at the alien spirit in front of him.
"The ability of this alien spirit is to move freely in the force field. But there are limitations. It can be used approximately once every five seconds. After use, it will be sent back to its original position in an instant." After He Jingtong quickly informed this series of tentative information, he kept looking at the two people who were tied up out of the corner of his eye.
When alien spirits kill humans, their priority is usually the person who caused the alien spirit to be born, rather than the spiritual master or ordinary people.
Looking at the facts from this perspective, the man who had fallen and died at the door before was killed even though he had nothing to do with the alien spirit. This can only mean that this alien spirit had already wanted to fight against the healer and even wanted to use the healer as food.
The two people who should have been killed by it immediately were only tied up and not dead, which also showed that the two people became bait.
But it shouldn't be like this.
A spirit born of jealousy should not have any reason at all.
Although it is a good thing to know that no more people died, if this alien being became stronger subjectively rather than being controlled by extreme emotions and wanted to kill the people who caused it to become an alien, then it can only mean that the alien has, to some extent, also achieved an alternative evolution.
And if this information had already been known to those related to Taohuayuan many years ago, would the Taohuayuan project really be completely terminated after those researchers were arrested or even sentenced to death or life imprisonment?
He Jingtong is not sure.
When he has the power to defeat ten enemies, he will usually kill the alien spirits as quickly as possible to avoid financial losses.
Therefore, the number of alien spirits who could really fight with him could be counted on one hand.
Such data obviously has no reference value.
After gathering his thoughts that had no limit for a moment, He Jingtong turned his back to his two teammates and said, "Let's let Teacher Rui come up now."
This alien spirit is no longer as simple as just killing it.
The primary purpose of a spiritualist is undoubtedly to kill strange spirits, but as people who are asked for help by managers, they also have the duty of rescue.
Secondly, the psychic kills the spirits only to save people.
Fundamentally speaking, the mission and purpose of a spiritual master is to save people.
But if these two people were killed because of their attempt to kill the spirits, then this matter would be even worse than the future that He Jingtong saw when he used prophecy before.
In that future, the spiritualist would only kill the spirit that Ye Rui transformed into.
Just like that, they will be forced to face the doubts of the whole society.
But if ordinary people die due to improper rescue...
In order to avoid this possibility, He Jingtong didn't mind mobilizing all the combat power he could.
Furthermore, before his teammates figured out the abilities of this alien spirit and were prepared, He Jingtong would never allow them to face an attack that could pierce their hearts in an instant.
Whether it was instant movement or instant attack, it was no longer something that students could easily resist.
Time and space have an absolute and overwhelming meaning in this world. No human being can escape the simultaneous limitations of these two abilities.
Those who manipulate time can easily kill anyone.
This kind of instant movement is infinitely close to controlling time.
Unless you figure out where the next attack will land and take precautions before the alien spirit takes action.
But it's too difficult.
Instead of putting his teammates in danger, Qi Xueyi, who has the power to heal his body by healing his soul, entered this room.
He Jingtongning chose to face the danger on her own.
Because if Qi Xueyi were facing all this, he would definitely think that since he has the ability to heal himself, he would not die anyway——
So what if I get attacked and hurt?
As long as his teammates timed it right and rescued the two ordinary people when he was pulling the alien's hatred, the advantage of the situation would be transferred in an instant.
He Jingtong immediately thought of the possibility of what might happen to Qi Xueyi.
But he ignored the fact that he was doing this himself.
——As long as he can block one attack from the alien spirit within five seconds, He Jingtong will have four seconds to act.
This thought made him rush towards the alien spirit again.
At the same time, the function of turtle soup also responds to the questions he raised.
Question: [The ability of this spirit is to teleport within the force field once every five seconds and return to the original place? ]
The answer is yes.
This means that He Jingtong's previous speculation was overturned in the blink of an eye.
[The spirit can teleport once every five seconds, is that correct? ]
The thought of "no" suddenly appeared in my mind again.
[Every time the spirit moves, it returns to its original position, right? ]
The answer is still no.
The last question -
[The spirits can move freely in this space, right? ]
Only then did the answer finally come out to be yes.
In this situation, how could we allow teammates to come in?
He Jingtong gritted his teeth, with his nine swords erected in front of his chest. His eyes were sharp, but he rushed towards the two tied-up men without hesitation.
The most important thing in this operation was rescue, and he always kept this in mind.
A force field can only be fought by a force field.
In order to avoid using up a large amount of soul power in a short period of time, He Jingtong only covered the surface of his body with a layer of white protection about three centimeters thick.
But this is not so much a protection as it is a way to prevent the spirit from teleporting and putting its hand close to He Jingtong's heart...
He left himself a maximum reaction distance of three centimeters.
He Jingtong had thought about directly exploding his realm and trying to kill the alien spirit instantly.
But he couldn't do it.
Since the alien's ability was teleportation, it has become impossible.
Whether it is Silver Chain or Thunderbolt, they are essentially targeted skills that are released within a specified range, rather than targeted skills that can accurately target a specific character.
Secondly, He Jingtong's soul power can only support him to use the realm once.
But it doesn't matter.
The young man already had a plan in mind.
Since the main purpose is to save people, then whether it is to break the position of the evil spirits or not, it seems irrelevant.
As long as you don't die...
As long as we can cut the ground where the two tied people are...
Although they were in some danger after falling from a height of 3.5 meters, it was obviously not enough to endanger their lives.
In this way, as long as those two are out of danger, there will be too many ways for the healer to fight against this healer.
But can things really be that simple?
Almost as soon as He Jingtong took a step forward, the alien appeared beside him and attacked him again.
Qi Xueyi and Jian Zirui who were outside the door hadn't even seen clearly before the alien spirit had already appeared in front of He Jingtong.
The young man raised his knife to block it, but the three centimeters of self-rescue range was obviously not enough for him to react. Therefore, even though he blocked the alien spirit, He Jingtong still had obvious scratches on his body.
A wound appeared that almost spanned the entire chest. It was the mark left by the alien's cone-shaped hand.
Blood oozed out, and He Jingtong swung his knife fiercely at the alien spirit. This time, the alien spirit seemed to want to maintain his previous false speculation and resolutely raised his hand to block it.
Five seconds have passed.
Therefore, Qi Xueyi and Jian Zirui had not yet realized that He Jingtong's previous speculation was completely wrong.
They could only nervously try to release their own soul power to fight against the power of the alien spirits.
Green and red intertwined, and Jian Zirui and Qi Xueyi finally stepped into the suite after making preparations.
At the same time, He Jingtong once again rushed towards the two trapped people with a knife in hand.
He Jingtong knew clearly that the spirits could teleport unlimitedly within this force field.
His brain was also constantly working and thinking.
——First of all, the suite in this high-end resort has an area of 80 square meters.
——If you want to cover the entire room with a force field, or even the entire eighteenth floor, it is basically enough to consume all the soul power reserves of an A-level alien.
——The ability to teleport gives this alien spirit unimaginable melee attack power.
——Large-scale boundary. Even if it can destroy the force field, it can easily hurt ordinary people or even kill them on the spot. It cannot be used.
Finally, all the information is summarized.
When He Jingtong approached the two men, he suddenly erupted with extremely strong white soul power.
The force fields repelled each other, and the white color dispersed the orange force field that was like a rotten orange. The Ming Jiuguan in He Jingtong's hand also moved instantly, cutting towards the entire ground.
The Ming Jiuguan, which was wrapped in the power of thunder and lightning, instantly cut the ground apart. Under the terrified and unbelievable gazes of the two ordinary people, the corners of the young man's mouth slightly curled up towards them.
Behind him, the alien's spike-like hand had already stabbed his back...
The white force field explosion requires a lot of power and is extremely fast in order to disperse the force field of an alien of the same level in less than a second.
Just this one blow drained almost half of He Jingtong's strength, which naturally made it impossible for him to maintain the maximum self-rescue distance of only three centimeters.
With red splashing out from behind, He Jingtong turned around and swung his knife at the "hand" that wanted to burst his heart.
But this time He Jingtong didn't hit the target at all.
The boy exclaimed "Wow"
A large mouthful of blood was spat out.
The defenseless body was severely damaged in that instant.
Fortunately, the spiritual master's soul quality and physical quality are far superior to ordinary people. Therefore, even though part of his heart was shattered, He Jingtong still did not die.
The boy's vision was blurred by the tears, and he quickly mobilized the strength in his body to cover his entire body again...
Previously, when the white force field exploded, it was not centered on He Jingtong's body but rushed forward in the direction of his body.
At that time, his back was no longer protected and was also filled with orange.
Teleportation is something that the spirits can use unlimitedly within their position. Naturally, the spirits cannot ignore its inherent advantages.
Touch once and leave, touch again and leave again.
Before He Jingtong could defend himself, he had already suffered multiple injuries and had several bloody holes on his body.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye. This scene also made Qi Xueyi and Jian Zirui realize that what He Jingtong had just said was an error.
This is how it should be.
After all, He Jingtong arrived only half a minute earlier than them.
It's perfectly reasonable to make mistakes.
But Qi Xueyi and Jian Zirui still couldn't accept it.
"It's just an A-rank spirit!"
"How dare you hurt him?!"
Ordinary people have already fallen to the 17th floor, so why should they, who are standing on the 18th floor, hold back?
Red and green burst out in an instant——!
