The blade-like arc of light hit her chest directly, shattering like glass, disintegrating into countless tiny points of light, and then quickly melting and extinguishing. Qi Ji's pace did not stop and he continued to move forward without any hindrance. If the cloak had not shaken violently for a moment, one would have suspected that the arc of light was just an empty shadow with no substance. The spiritual energy in Burton's body surged violently. Countless bright red fluorescent lines emerged around his body, rapidly changing and twisting, outlining countless complex symbols drawn in blood, revealing a strong ominous aura. A large number of spells, either attacking, disrupting or confusing, gushed out from these symbols and surged towards the leisurely-footed Qi Ji like a tide. The latter did not offer any resistance, but just smiled and stared at the other party quietly, as serene as a virgin, allowing himself to be submerged by the overwhelming magic. The figure of the cloaked girl disappeared in the surging tide of spells, but Burton did not show any hope. He turned around and rushed to the edge of the room. The twisted and strange sword danced, and a big hole was torn in the wall. This room is located at the rear edge of the orphanage apartment, with a large hole leading directly to the back garden outside. Burton rushed out without thinking, and at the same time cast various spells that could block and disrupt perception at a very high frequency, concealing his figure.
The moment the bearded man was killed, Burton confirmed a fact: the girl in the cloak was not a stand-in or a projection at all, but the real person! At the same time, he also confirmed another fact: I am definitely no match for her! That kind of extremely frequent flashing and releasing of substitutes is definitely not something that can be performed by extraordinary people below the level of psychic warriors or magicians! For extraordinary beings, whether warriors or mages, if they fail to reach the third level and become high-level extraordinary beings, they are essentially still human beings, "mortals with special abilities." Once promoted to the third level, it means that the essence of their life has undergone a fundamental transformation. They no longer belong to the human category in the traditional sense, but have taken a crucial step towards the true "supernatural" realm! Taking warriors as an example, the third level is "spiritual communication". Spiritual communication is the abbreviation of "communication with spirits". Martial artists who reach this level will be able to freely communicate with the spirituality in their bodies and manipulate it to a high degree, thereby exerting power that transcends traditional "martial arts". The most typical one is to change the form of one's own body in a short period of time to achieve purposes such as fast movement and avoiding attacks. Although mindful warriors who have not reached this level can achieve similar effects through specific spiritual equipment or secret methods, there are bound to be limitations on the number and frequency of times they can do so, and the burden on themselves is also quite large. But this girl was able to "flash" and "release her stand" so smoothly and easily multiple times in a row, and it was her real self, not a fake projection. That means she already has the ability to change her form of existence. It also means that she has reached the realm of "psychic" and "magician" and stepped into the realm of high-level extraordinary people! As a righteous mage, I would definitely not be able to confront such an opponent head-on. Even with the assistance of the bearded man, a righteous warrior, it is impossible to fight against it. What's more, the bearded man is already dead, and he is fighting alone now! "The purpose of this mission has been achieved. There is no need to get entangled with a high-level extraordinary person, otherwise the only result will be death..." Burton was thinking in his mind, and his body's movement of escaping to the outside world did not slow down at all. He drove various auxiliary spells to push himself away at a faster speed. "I don't know what kind of power that woman belongs to. She is not included in our plan at all...
"The bishop's plan obviously has a flaw. A high-level extraordinary being with an unknown position has intervened... I must return alive and report this situation..." run! This is the only purpose of all his actions at this moment! As his thoughts raced, Burton, in a royal blue suit, had already rushed out more than ten meters and was about to climb over the wall and leave the orphanage. "call!" Just as he was about to cast a spell to lift himself up and over the wall, a thick mist suddenly burst out from the hole in the apartment and spread towards him at an extremely fast speed! The mist sparkled with colorful and dazzling starlight, as if it contained a twinkling galaxy. Seeing that he was about to be swallowed up by the romantic mist, although Burton did not know its specific effects, he knew that he must not be touched. But the galaxy mist spread too quickly and over too wide a range, so he had no time to dodge. At this moment, as if he had made a difficult decision, he puffed up his cheeks with an unsightly look and bit the tip of his tongue hard! "puff!" Burton spat out a few drops of abnormally thick blood, and his face turned extremely pale and weak at that moment, as if this action would cause him considerable harm. Those few strange drops of blood quickly spread, forming a curtain-like bright red "tide" that blocked in front of him, isolating himself from the starry mist. As this tidal curtain formed, the mist shining with bright starlight slammed into it, shattering it in an instant. But at the same time, the spread of the fog was blocked for a few tenths of a second. Burton took this opportunity to climb over the wall and sneak into the maze-like roads and alleys like a rat. The fog spread rapidly, then faded and dissipated, eventually disappearing completely. In the hole in the wall of the apartment, Qi Ji's figure walked out from the diffuse dust, and looked through the hollow iron fence at the outside world where Burton was no longer there. "Run, run quickly," she said with a playful smile, not showing any disappointment at the enemy's escape, "Go to see your 'Archbishop' quickly..." This guy named Burton must not have noticed... Just when he thought he had resisted the fog, a speck of starlight as tiny as dust splashed out from the dense mist and fell on him. And it penetrated into his skin silently, completely merging with his spirituality. "It's about time to go back..." She suddenly turned her head and looked behind her, and sensed through the entire apartment building that the security police officers and enforcers outside were beginning to riot. The body suddenly lost its color, and shrank and deformed rapidly, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a small black lizard lying on the ground. Meanwhile, in Midtown, Beechwood Apartments, Unit 3, second floor, Gary's home. On the floor of the public bathroom, a small lizard with a completely black body and a faint red glow suddenly expanded and deformed violently, and soon condensed into the shape of Qi Ji. In just a moment, she crossed half of Sunset Harbor and returned to Gary's house from the Stoner Orphanage four or five kilometers away. This is a miracle.
"Although that thing is dangerous, the skills I learned from it are quite useful." Qi Ji pretended to press the flush button of the toilet, making it make a splashing sound. Last night, because of the residual spirit of the psychic White, she looked directly at the terrifying figure wandering in the starry sky and suffered a great mental shock. Just like when she was still in Loen City and saw the "Colorful Glowing Icosahedron" that materialized in Buck's "Sea of Spirits", a huge amount of information flooded into her mind in a very short period of time. But the difference is that this time, the information is not completely meaningless! Although most of them are still garbled, they also hide some content whose meaning can be analyzed and identified. As for why this happened, she didn't know. Perhaps it is the area that the great being is good at, which is related to "space" and "travel"? In short, by analyzing these parts that might have meaning, she acquired some very useful new skills. This includes the "stand-in flash". It can allow Qi Ji's real body to exchange positions with any puppet he created! It is not yet clear whether there are any distance or other restrictions. But even if there is, it is extremely far away. At least she can even exchange the mini puppets left behind in Loen City. "Although it is not a truly free 'teleportation' and must be carried out through puppets, it is still quite practical." While thinking, she washed her hands casually, then pushed open the bathroom door, returned to the living room, and sat next to Daisy as if nothing had happened. It seemed like he really just went to the toilet. ========================= This is a long chapter of 3200 words. I accidentally got so excited about writing it, and it’s not convenient to break it up, so I just uploaded it all. Chapter 204: The Official Superhumans Cleaning Up the Situation Western section, outside Stoner Orphanage. Nancy listened carefully to the report from Inspector Goering: "...In summary, although we only received the report this morning, the gang should have sneaked into the orphanage and killed the director, Mr. Jodley, at the latest yesterday midnight. They only really started to act this morning..." After listening to his story, Nancy nodded slightly and said: "Have you tried to negotiate?" Inspector Goering smiled bitterly at himself on his exhausted face, and said while shaking his head: "If the negotiations were effective, we wouldn't have to bother you all." As he said this, he glanced at the base of the wall not far away with sad eyes. The ground there was covered with a piece of white cloth that was almost completely stained red, and there was a vague shape bulging out, and there was obviously a person lying flat underneath.
"May Dean's soul rest in peace in the temple bathed in eternal dusk. His bravery will always be remembered." While mourning, he made a "V" with his right hand and pressed two fingers on his left shoulder, making the prayer gesture of the Setting Sun Spiritual Society. Nancy followed the silence for a moment, then nodded and said: "Okay, I know." There was no expression of disappointment on her face due to not obtaining any useful intelligence. Maintaining his calmness and composure, he turned to the male executor holding the "True Vision" glass bead beside him and instructed: "Richard, try to use 'True Sight' to explore the situation inside and outside the apartment and see if you can find some useful information." Richard, the executor holding the "True Vision", nodded seriously, then put the crystal clear glass bead to his right eye. The spiritual power in his body was quickly mobilized and injected into the inside. As if using a monocle, he looked at the apartment through it and kept moving. "There are indeed only two extraordinary people," he whispered carefully after a few seconds, "One warrior and one magician, their strengths are... Right Mind and Right Magician respectively, and their approximate fields are... Huh?" Nancy noticed that his tone was wrong and raised an eyebrow slightly: "What's wrong? 'True Sight' can't recognize the areas they are good at?" "No, it recognized it," Richard frowned and said uncertainly, "but it is a completely unfamiliar field. The information fed back to me by 'Real Vision' is something I have never seen before. I don't know what to call this field..." After observing carefully for a few seconds, he exhaled: “Balanced, quiet, and natural… This is my first impression of it. However, it is somewhat inconsistent, as if some details have been distorted and misinterpreted…” Listening to his somewhat abstract description, Nancy seemed to have thought of something and her expression changed slightly. "Such a description... How come it is so similar to the power of 'that person'? Could those kidnappers be related to Him? Should I ask Him? But, what if... "No, now is not the time to dwell on these things. The most important thing is to eliminate the kidnappers and rescue the survivors!" She shook her head imperceptibly, temporarily throwing away all the messy thoughts that had nothing to do with the mission. "If there is only one righteous mage and one warrior, we can try to attack directly with our strength." She put on the "Dirty Words" leather glove on her right hand, turned to the other team members and said: "But the other side has hostages as bargaining chips, so we must act quickly and disable everyone in an instant." Before she could arrange a specific action plan, a rough male voice suddenly came from the direction of the apartment: "Listen up, red and white dogs! You have one hour to give us one million El gold coins, otherwise we can't guarantee the safety of those little devils inside!" "They actually want money?" Inspector Goering was very surprised after hearing this. "Two extraordinary beings of such high levels actually kidnapped people in the city of Sunset Harbor for money?!" Nan looked towards the closed door of the apartment and narrowed his eyes. He looked clearly incredulous that these people would do such a thing for such a ridiculous reason, but he didn't say much. At this moment, Richard, who had been using "real vision" to observe the situation in the apartment, suddenly changed his expression and shouted loudly:
"Captain, something's happening. They seem to be fighting with someone!" "Internal strife?!" An executor asked in surprise. "No, those two extraordinary people are fighting with a third party! It seems that another extraordinary person has broken into the apartment! Moreover, that person's condition is very strange, and the 'real vision' can't perceive any information related to him." Richard stretched his neck and kept the spiritual equipment in his hand running, his face becoming more and more strange: "If the two kidnappers hadn't been fighting him, I wouldn't even have noticed his existence!"
