Chapter 141: Transparent World
At this moment, the distance between the two is not even a meter!
But the clown didn't notice him at all.
Su Xian was still thinking about whether to wait for the clown and the soldier to lose both sides before profiting, but now he is ready to move, and he can't hold back!
Although he has not yet known himself and his opponent, this head has been sent to his eyes, how can there be any reason not to accept it?
As for the soldier standing on the roof of the building opposite...... It doesn't matter who he is!
……
Things change so quickly that it's hard to be caught off guard.
When an opportunity comes, if you don't grasp it, it's fleeting.
Su Xian only thought for a few seconds, then turned over and took out a card, and then opened his five fingers, and a golden gauntlet sword suddenly appeared in his hand!
The next moment, he exerted force under his feet, took a figure-eight step, and his right arm was like a full bowstring, bursting out in an instant, and the gauntlet stabbing sword in his hand stabbed out like thunder!
When he was stunned, the clown's face was still full of exaggerated smiles, and his face was full of ease.
No matter how delicate his mind was under that mask, he never imagined that he would take the initiative to jump into the tiger's mouth.
When he realized that something was wrong, the side of his face was already illuminated by a golden thunderbolt.
"Boom!"
A thunderclap exploded.
Thunder Impact!
From head to toe, the clown was swallowed up by a torrent of lightning almost instantly.
The figure in the colorful clown costume was completely turned into char in the torrent of thunder and lightning.
When the electricity was gone, the clown's body fell from the edge of the roof.
Su Xian instantly turned "Link's Bayblade" back into a card, pocketed it, and then immediately jumped from the roof of the building.
He wants to confirm the life and death of the Joker!
……
At this moment, the soldier standing on the roof of the opposite building looked confused.
His full name is Sidney Kom, and he used to be a non-commissioned officer, but now he is the mayor's personal bodyguard.
He was ordered to come out to deal with the Joker.
If you can, arrest the Joker or kill him on the spot.
If it is difficult to deal with, show weakness to the enemy, apologize, and even return the "bystander's eye" to the clown.
In short, the mayor's experiment must be carried out smoothly.
But he never imagined that just as the two were about to start communicating, a golden stabbing sword suddenly appeared next to the clown, and burst out with thunder and divine power, knocking the clown down in an instant!
"Probably dead, right?"
Sidney took half a step forward, looking down at the charred body that had fallen.
He could feel the power of the thunderous bombardment, a blast that even he could hardly withstand head-on.
But in the blink of an eye, he realized that there was an even more dangerous presence lurking around, and he immediately became fully on guard.
……
And in the next moment.
On top of the clown's charred black body that fell from the roof of the building, a large amount of white smoke suddenly appeared, as if someone had detonated a smoke bomb!
As the white smoke erupted, Su Xian's body that jumped down from above showed its silhouette in the smoke.
Although the silhouette was soon engulfed in smoke, Sidney was keenly able to catch him from the rooftop.
At this moment, Sidney realized that he had encountered a "transparent person"!
A transparent person who cannot be seen with his eyes is undoubtedly an extremely dangerous existence.
"Can't let him disappear from my sight!"
Sidney's mind flashed through the thought and he acted on it.
He held up the "Bystander's Eye" with his left hand, grabbed it with his right hand, and pumped it vigorously, and suddenly the gray substance was pulled out.
The gray substance rapidly expands upon contact with the air, turning into a mass of viscous.
Sidney propped up his right hand, causing the gray goo to spin like a dough and grow bigger and bigger, until it became a large gray net.
The moment the big net was formed, he looked serious, and pressed his hand down suddenly, and the big net went down!
And below.
Su Xian, who plunged into the smoke, touched a ...... Plush toy!
The clown's body disappeared into the smoke, leaving only such a blackened clown puppet in place!
"The star of the clown, the clown of the star, will always use a double for a dangerous show."
The moment you touch the puppet, a description of it comes to mind.
This is a stand-in puppet!
"The star of the clown? Is it still hiding behind the scenes, or is it there in person? ”
In the blink of an eye, Su Xian suddenly noticed that there was a cloudy aura crushing down from the top of his head.
The white smoke obscured his vision, but that didn't stop him from burrowing into the buildings on the side of the street.
It was only then that he turned around and saw a large net enveloping the street.
"It's not that easy."
Exhaling slightly, Su Xian grabbed the puppet and moved quickly, preparing to transfer his position.
Sidney on the roof of the building jumped off after the net was missed, and he looked around with a wary face, for fear of being attacked by the transparent man.
But Su Xian had the "Eye of the Explorer" to explore the way, and only a moment later, he had already bypassed all the soldiers who were ambushed in the building, and instead came to the front of the city's energy furnace.
Sidney walked out with the iron door still closed, revealing the metallic walls and stairs inside.
Su Xian put the clown's puppet in the card book.
No. 46.
- No.46 A damaged stand-in clown
——★
——SR
- Item Cards
- Damaged
- Quantity: 1
……
This looks like a prop in the same category as "Margaret's Muppet".
However, the damaged "stand-in clown" can only be used as sacrificial waste.
Su Xian rolled his gaze.
If the Joker was only using a stand-in behind the scenes and wasn't physically present, then the rest of the masquerade wouldn't be there.
This means that it is already difficult to find any more clues about the clown here.
He had no reason to stay here.
"To be conservative, it's gone now, but it's not necessary."
After thinking for a while, Su Xian found a small room to sit down, and then manipulated the "Explorer's Eye" to fly out of the open iron door and enter the inside of the energy furnace.
The interior of this furnace is basically made of metal materials, and each metal plate is smooth as a mirror, and every cut is not missing.
With the current industrial standards of this era, it is simply impossible to produce such a building.
Moreover, there seems to be energy flowing in the walls of this building, and even the "Explorer's Eye" cannot penetrate it, so it can only follow the path.
The roads inside lead in all directions, and if you are not familiar with it, it is very easy to get lost.
Quite a few staff members in white coats walked around the interior, working desperately, and the unrest caused by the clowns outside did not affect them much.
Before passing by a wall clock, Su Xian glanced at the time, calculated slightly, and found that thirty minutes had already passed halfway, and the duration of the stealth spray was not much.
"I wonder if Professor Buck has infiltrated this energy furnace?"
Through his observations along the way, Su Xian judged that Professor Buck should have come to collect the energy of "panic".
That is, the people who teach and use the city's energy furnace have the same purpose.
If you think about it to the extreme, it is likely that the professor has already infiltrated the energy furnace and is trying to find a way to take away the "panic" collected by the energy furnace.
"Well, it's not extreme, it's just a normal operation...... In the case of the professor. ”
……
A few minutes later, Sidney was still wrestling with the transparent man who had made up his brain.
And Su Xian had already manipulated the "Explorer's Eye" to go deep into the energy furnace.
He doesn't have a fixed route, just explore with fate, try to move to the middle, to the upper level.
On the way, he saw an old man who seemed to have some status, and asked the "Explorer's Eye" to follow him, only to follow him to a laboratory that was clearly important!
The ceiling of the laboratory was coiled with thick tubes, one end of which protruded from above and burrowed into a large transparent column.
And in the middle of the column, a nearly dark green liquid was constantly bubbling.
Su Xian took a cursory look and found that this thing looked like a biological cultivation tube.
The whole experiment felt extremely incongruous to him, like a remnant of alien technology.
But the surprise only lasted for an extreme time, and he quickly manipulated the "Explorer's Eye" to get close to the transparent cylinder that looked like a cultivation tube.
Through the dark green liquid, you can faintly see the ...... There is indeed a human body hidden!
"This is a bioculture experiment?"
Su Xian was surprised in his heart, but he gradually grasped what the person who was operating this energy furnace was doing.
It didn't take long for a small door in the laboratory to be pushed open, and a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes walked out of it.
Seeing the middle-aged man for the first time, Su Xian recalled his identity.
The mayor of the city of Brut, Benjamin Brutt.
The mayor, who often appears in the newspapers, always declares that he wants to clean up the law and order in the city, but never really puts it into action.
The average resident of the city of Brut did not have a good impression of him.
However, Su Xian learned from his memory that Benjamin was actually a man with both the elegance of an aristocrat and the intelligence of a scholar.
Although he also possesses the arrogance of the aristocracy and the indifference of a scholar.
He is like a goshawk soaring in the sky, always observing the world from a bird's-eye perspective.
Except when he needed to do superficial work, he never cared about the safety of the citizens.
After entering the laboratory, Benjamin Brut began to talk carefully with the old man from earlier.
As the two of them talked, they pointed more than once at the person in the cultivation tube, and more than once at the top.
Su Xian glanced at the thick pipe on the ceiling and found that the other end of it was straight down from above.
So after a brief pause, he manipulated the "Eye of the Explorer" to penetrate the door where the mayor came.
Sure enough, behind the door was a staircase passage that came down and down.
The Explorer's Eye followed the passage and soon came to the upper room.
It was an empty and huge room, the top of the room was hemispherical, and countless tubes were inserted into the top from the outside, winding down, and finally connected to a transparent ball in the center of the room!
The ball was three meters in diameter, filled with gray mist, and a prismatic crystal shining in the middle.
Three thick tubes extend from the bottom of the ball, one of which is directed into the lab below, and the other three into other places.
"Architecturally, this is supposed to be the machine that creates the gray fog. At the same time, it should still be a receiving device for panic? ”
After briefly guessing the purpose of this device, Su Xian's attention fell on the prismatic crystal in the sphere.
The crystal shone with a deep purple glow, like the color of a purple moon.
It is clearly the heart of this installation.
If you want to stop the fog, you just need to destroy this device and take the core of it......
"Bang!"
It seems that someone has reached an agreement with Su Xian's thoughts.
The transparent ball suddenly suffered an invisible impact!
"Professor Barker?"
The impact was repeated and the ball shook violently as a result.
But the material of the ball seems to be unusually strong, and a simple impact cannot shatter it.
The person who hit the ball clearly noticed this, and a large amount of black matter suddenly squeezed out of thin air from the air, and climbed densely on top of the cover of the ball.
A loud roar followed.
A crack appeared in the explosion of the ball!
Gray mist poured out wildly from the cracks, and the silhouette of a human figure appeared in the mist.
"Sure enough, it's Professor Barker!"
……
The mayor and the old scientist in the lower laboratory were alarmed by the explosion, and they hurried to the upper floor without thinking about it.
But Professor Buck has already made a second detonation!
This time the explosion came out of the crack and directly expanded it to the size of two fists.
Professor Buck jerked out his arm of black matter and grabbed the purple crystal floating in the center of the sphere.
"Boom!"
A halo of light suddenly erupted from the purple crystal.
The arm formed by the black mass began to dissolve from the fingertips, and half of it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
But Professor Buck didn't give up, and immediately poured a large amount of black substance into it.
Those black substances were derived in large quantities, and they exploded in a series of explosions, and they simply blew the purple crystals out of the ball!
In the gray mist, Professor Buck reached out and scooped up the crystal that no longer glowed, and quickly put it into his clothes.
The mayor and the old scientist rushed in, their mouths open as if shouting, but the Explorer's Eye couldn't hear them.
Su Xian only saw that Professor Buck had withdrawn from the fog, and the outline of his body was no longer visible.
He counted the time, and there were less than five minutes left before the invisibility spray failed.
"It's really exciting, I don't know if the professor can escape."
Su Xian stood up and manipulated the "Explorer's Eye" to gallop out, preparing to take it back into his hand.
But as the Eye of the Explorer flew into the lab, he abruptly stopped it.
As the upper sphere shattered and the purple crystal was taken away, the entire device underwent an anomalous change.
In the cultivation tube in the laboratory, the test subject immersed in the dark green liquid actually woke up because of this!
He stretched out his arms in the incubator and smashed it with a single punch, sending a large amount of dark green liquid pouring out, and the subject stepped out of it.
His skin was darkened, with scales in some places, and several long snakes burrowing from his back were frantically whipping the ground, showing his restless heart.
Suddenly, a red light erupted in his eyes, as if he had seen something out of thin air, and he suddenly reached out and pointed out, and a long snake behind him suddenly shot out, the body of the long snake was elongated, and the snake's eyes were red, and it seemed that he could see that thing.
"Boom!"
The black substance that appeared out of thin air poured into the mouth of the long snake, and a violent explosion was suddenly generated, but it only blew up the corners of the long snake's mouth!
Professor Buck, who realized that he had been discovered, didn't have time to think about it, turned and rushed to the door.
The test subject didn't know what he was thinking, but he chased after him!
……
Thermal induction?
……
Su Xian pondered the possibility that the "stealth spray" was seen through, and suddenly noticed that there was also a violent movement in the next room.
Thinking of the three thick tubes under the ball, he couldn't help but feel a stir in his heart.
"Two more subjects like this? The mayor collects panic emotions in order to breed this monster? ”
