Accompanied by the alarm, dense footsteps came from the corridor.
A team of fully armed soldiers arrived at the surveillance command room. After spreading out, they aimed their weapons at Feng Qi.
Seeing this, Feng Qi could not help but hug Suction Cup tightly.
At this moment, the black-armored man who was leading the team stretched out his right hand and pointed at him. He quickly formed a seal with one hand and used a few hand gestures.
Immediately, the Spiritual Qi particles floating in the air were attracted and gathered towards him.
At this moment, he could clearly sense the pressure coming from his surroundings, making it difficult for him to move.
The ability displayed by the black-armored man was extremely similar to his psychokinesis. The difference was that his psychokinesis was converted from mental power and released from his body.
The way the black-armored man released the spell was closer to the Hand Seal technique that Lin Ran had created.
Moreover, it was more advanced than Lin Ran’s previous system.
The characteristic of Lin Ran’s hand seals was that each hand seal corresponded to the circulation trajectory of the Spiritual Qi in his body. The black-armored man directly controlled the Spiritual Qi in the air outside and quickly drew a fixed trajectory.
[I’m very gratified that Old Lin has a successor. 1 hope Old Lin will work hard, kill the owner of the fog and successfully promote to become my Left Protector.]
Ignoring the narrator’s complaints, Feng Qi hurriedly looked down at the Suction Cup in his arms under the pressure of the Spiritual Qi.
Just as he thought, Suction Cup swung her fist again.
Seeing this scene, he was shocked.
If this punch was thrown, the black-armored warrior would clearly not be able to withstand it.
It was too late to stop her now.
However, just as he was about to activate the Blood Source form and try to forcefully break through the restraints of the Spiritual Qi ring to suppress the Suction Cup, the fist that she was swinging at the black-armored warrior suddenly stopped midway.
Immediately after that, a gust of wind swept forward, blowing the black-armored warrior and the members of the combat team behind him to the ground.
At the same time that he lost the feeling of restraint, Feng Qi hurriedly hugged Suction Cup tightly, afraid that she would hurt someone.
[I think 1 understand now. Suction Cup probably recognized that they are all humans at the last moment, so even if they had killing intent towards you, she only repelled them and did not hurt them. If they were domain creatures, they would now be holding hands and singing together on the road to the netherworld: friends will walk together forever©.
Feng Qi agreed with the narrator’s analysis.
Although Suction Cup had lost consciousness, she still retained her instincts.
Other than Mu Qing’s attitude towards humans, Wei Wei must have also sternly taught Suction Cup not to hurt humans.
He had seen this in Mu Yao’s memory fragments. In the images, Mu told Suction Cup to work hard for the rise of humanity in the future.
(PS: The content is in Chapter 116.)
Therefore, Suction Cup did not attack humans clearly because it was one of the instincts she retained after losing consciousness.
Looking at the messy surveillance command room, Feng Qi sweated in his heart and realized that the situation was still very bad.
Therefore, he immediately turned to Xia Qian and explained,
“Commander Xia, can I explain?”
At this moment, the members of the fallen combat team stood up one after another and aimed their weapons at Feng Qi again. The situation became very tense.
Just as they were about to attack, Xia Qian suddenly looked at the combat team and said in a low voice,
“Don’t move. There’s a misunderstanding here.”
With that said, he looked at the black-armored warrior leading the team and said,
“Xiao Ye, take your men and guard the door outside the command room. If someone asks about the situation, say that there’s combat readiness command training going on inside.”
Upon hearing this, the black-armored warrior looked surprised. He turned to look at the meat paste hanging on the wall with a thoughtful expression. Then, he nodded and said,
“I understand!”
With that said, he waved his hand and said,
“All of you, follow me to the entrance to prepare for battle.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the black-armored man left the command room with the team.
The three staff members in charge of observation also looked at Xia Qian.
“You guys go out too!”
Upon hearing the order, the three staff members immediately took off the communication device on their bodies and left the command room.
At this moment, only Feng Qi and Xia Qian were left in the command room.
Looking at the calm Xia Qian, Feng Qi suddenly realized something.
Xia Qian had always known that there were domain creatures lurking in the shelter. Otherwise, he would not have recovered his composure so quickly after a short surprise.
Recalling the change in the black-armored warrior’s expression just now, he was even more certain of his guess.
“Are you surprised that 1 didn’t arrest you?”
Feng Qi shook his head.
Xia Qian clearly still thought that he did not know what was going on in the shelter. This sudden accident was only because White Pupils had been triggered by the appearance of a domain creature.
As for him, he was just a passerby from the beginning to the end.
Seeing him shake his head, Xia Qian indeed revealed a surprised expression.
“Did you know that White Pupils would make a move?”
“If I’m not wrong, the pile of meat paste hanging on the wall is probably a domain creature, right?”
“How did you know?” Xia Qian asked in surprise.
“The situation in the Victory City Shelter where I was previously was similar to here. It was also infiltrated by domain forces and eventually led to a tragedy.”
“Tell me in detail.” Xia Qian immediately asked.
Feng Qi did not choose to expose his identity directly.
Even if Xia Qian was reliable, he could not be sure if there was a listening device on Xia Qian’s body or in the room.
This matter was very important. He had to figure out what was going on in the shelter first.
