Su Xian slowly walked into one of the buildings.

In the middle of the building lay a large number of soldiers.

Some are dead, some are still alive.

But the living are no different from the dead, they are lying motionless on the ground, their mouths crooked, their eyes demented, saliva flowing from the corners of their mouths, like babies who have lost their minds.

Su Xian observed slightly, walked over to a soldier who was still alive, and squatted down to examine it carefully.

The soldier had all the equipment on his body, not even a trace of external injuries, and was obviously put to the ground without even taking a face.

And looking at his appearance at the moment, it is almost certain that he has been mentally hurt.

Su Xian frowned and thought about it, then stood up and continued to walk inside.

The outermost building is spacious, but it has only two floors, and it has a very ordinary office structure, and you can see a few people who are clearly employees.

Whatever the true role of the city's energy furnace is, it is, at least on the surface, the city's energy center, and it is bound to have a well-developed career system.

These peripheral buildings are apparently the offices of the Energy Authority.

However, of course, it is impossible for the Energy Authority alone to occupy so much territory, and if you go further, it should be some other hidden institutions.

Su Xian didn't go upstairs to look, he directly pushed open the back door of this building, and then entered the next building.

The building has three floors, and there are quite a few people lying in it, which is basically the same as in the previous building.

He didn't look any further, just walked inside, until he walked out the back door, and finally saw a different scene.

What catches the eye is a circular road that separates the inner and outer buildings.

On top of the circular road, there were two soldiers lying every other way, and they were not dead, but they were lying there smiling stupidly, except for the difference in expression, which was basically the same as the demented-looking soldiers before.

Looking at those smiling soldiers, Su Xian thought for a moment, this time he didn't go in easily, but manipulated the "Explorer's Eye" to burrow into the building on the other side of the road first.

From here, the buildings inside are almost connected, and the internal passages lead in all directions, and all kinds of facilities are available.

Su Xian closed his eyes, manipulated the "Explorer's Eye" to quickly go around, and found that there was one more type of person wearing a white coat.

"Generally, people dressed like this are either medical personnel or scientific researchers......"

The "Eye of the Explorer" continues to go deeper, and more people come into view.

They had all been visibly mentally attacked, but no one was smiling, but huddled in various corners, one by one, trembling and their faces full of fear, as if they had been attacked by a nightmare.

Go deeper.

The people inside are no longer afraid or laughing, but they have lost their minds, holding all kinds of objects, and frantically smashing things around them!

Anger, overflowing their hearts, and only destruction in their eyes!

Both the soldiers and the staff were carried away by the nameless rage.

When there is nothing left to smash around, people nearby become their targets.

No screams, only roars.

Most of them began to attack each other, except for a few strong-willed ones who struggled to resist, but they soon became targets for others.

Blood splattered, limbs fluttered.

The bloody and brutal picture came into view without warning.

Su Xian opened his eyes abruptly and switched his vision back.

At the same time, there was a sudden loud bang near the energy furnace, and it seemed that something had exploded!

He suddenly looked up, locked his bearing, and then jumped out quickly, jumped onto the eaves of the second floor with a few stampedes, and then climbed with strength, and quickly reached the roof of the third floor.

There are no buildings more than three floors around, and when you stand there, you can see almost all the roofs clearly.

In the direction from which the explosion came, a wisp of black smoke slowly rose.

It's like a marker.

Su Xian only groaned for a moment, and then ran decisively.

Relying on the memories of the "Spirit of the Dragon Swordsman Toko Scat", he ran quickly and nimbly on the rooftops, and soon reached the area infected by the angry emotions.

Roars came from below, and only angry people were left in their heads.

Gost is one of the few people who still keeps his senses, and with his strong willpower, he suppresses the sudden outburst of anger, but is hunted down by his colleagues.

If it weren't for the fact that his colleagues were basically older and inactive, he would have been chopped off and bleeding by now.

Fortunately, he is still relatively young, and he has barely supported himself by relying on his physical strength stronger than that of his colleagues.

But even then, he has been forced into a corner by two colleagues.

Those two colleagues were originally amiable people, but they didn't expect to pick up a knife and a pipe at this moment, wantonly venting their anger.

Gost tightened the screwdriver in his hand.

He is not a person who would put his life's hopes in others.

If those two colleagues take another step, he will not hesitate to start fighting back!

Even though you may regret it later, you don't have a choice now.

"Ahhh

One of the colleagues rushed over with a shout.

He shouted as well, raised his screwdriver and stabbed it back.

Youthfulness gave him the strength to stab the screwdriver one step behind the elderly colleague, but he came first and pierced the opponent's flank!

The feel of the tip of the knife entering the flesh was clear, and his eyes gradually became colored with madness.

"Boom!"

A terrifying coercion was suddenly suppressed.

The coercion that fused into the mental fluctuations suddenly invaded the brains of the people in the room, and the anger melted away like the first snow, and panic and fear took their place.

Everyone in that area stopped slashing and smashing for a moment.

Reason, at this time, suddenly returns.

Goust looked at his recovered colleague and then looked down at his hand holding the screwdriver, and made a split second that he must not let his colleagues know that they were not dominated by anger before.

……

On the roof, Su Xian put down his hand, just now he made an attempt to use the spiritual fluctuations of the "Right to Breathe" and the "Spiritual Cleansing Ring", but he didn't expect the effect to be okay.

Cruelty should be done where cruelty is done.

Unprovoked killings should not be staged between innocent people.

Most of the people in the room below are scientists and engineers.

He doesn't mind doing something like this.

By the way, an experiment was also done.

Seeing through the "Explorer's Eye" that the people in the room had indeed stopped, Su Xian didn't pay any more attention to them, but continued to run forward.

Where the black smoke rises in front of you, there is more and more movement.

As he got closer, he even heard a lot of voices, the most frequent of which was the "hee-hee-hee" high-pitched laugh that gave goosebumps to his head.

If he hadn't heard it with his own ears, he would have thought that this kind of laughter would only appear in opera or film.

But it would be less surprising if it was the "clown" of the masquerade who made such laughter.

Since he wears the mask of "Joker", then the world is his stage, and "Joker" is the character he plays.

The so-called masquerade ball, this is what it is.

……

Su Xian stopped on the roof very close to the black smoke, and then looked down.

There was a group of people fighting in the middle of the road, and one of them was a clown in makeup, who walked like a real clown, walking like a penguin, laughing and dodging the attacks of others, and creating all kinds of colored balls out of thin air and throwing them into the crowd of pursuers.

When the balls come into contact with people, they burst open, or a large number of ribbons and phosphors appear, or spray out pigmented water, or a large number of bouquets appear...... There are also some empty balls with nothing.

It's not lethal, but it can make people angry to the point of losing their minds.

It's clear that the clown is doing humiliating things and making fun of them.

And the group of people chasing him, although they seem to be a lot stronger than the average person, and some of them still carry flamethrowers, but they are obviously not Jokers' opponents.

This is a battle that has no suspense from the start.

……

Su Xian quietly observed.

He is becoming more and more accustomed to this way of planning and then acting, collecting information first, and then making plans, if he can get on, he will find an opportunity to get on, if he can't go, he will wait until the next time he can go on again!

In terms of strength, the Joker is fast, agile in his movements, especially quick in his reactions, and his abilities are even more mysterious and unpredictable.

But for now, he doesn't show too much strength.

And in terms of motivation......

"This clown is luring people out! His giant eye had fallen after being polluted with gray matter, and if it hadn't been broken, it must have fallen into someone's hands. He definitely wants to take it back! ”

"Now there's another problem. Did his companions follow? Are there still masquerade members hiding in the shadows? ”

While thinking, Su Xian released the "Explorer's Eye" and asked him to explore the surroundings.

It was already very close to the main body of the city's energy furnace, with only two or three buildings in between, and the "Explorer's Eye" flew to the edge of the energy furnace almost in the blink of an eye.

But when it was about to fly into the energy furnace, it suddenly hit an invisible barrier and was bounced back!

Su Xian's heart was slightly cold, this was the first time he had encountered an impenetrable obstacle since he used the "Explorer's Eye".

"Is it an energy field?"

After guessing, he didn't rush in, but directly manipulated the "Explorer Room" to turn and fly, and quickly swept through the surrounding area.

Perhaps because the clown appeared here to fight, the idlers and others in the nearby buildings have basically been withdrawn, and only the well-trained soldiers are still ambushed inside.

The soldiers were visibly frightened, and they all looked a little wrong, but they still held their posts.

Some of the soldiers were armed with crossbow arrows, hiding at the edges of various windows, looking for an opportunity to lock on to the clown.

The crossbow is extremely lethal.

In this era when conventional firearms were not yet widespread, crossbows were already arguably the most long-range weapons of destruction.

As long as it is a full army, it will be equipped with crossbowmen.

Even Su Xian at this moment could not guarantee that he would be able to retreat in the rain of crossbow arrows.

Having said that, in fact, there is a "musket" in this world, and it appeared a long time ago, but it has not been able to develop, and the reason for this is naturally needless to say.

It wasn't until the end of the Age of the Gods that "muskets" came back to attention, but there weren't many countries where they used "muskets" on the surface.

First, the original "musket" was not stronger than the bow and crossbow, and second, the eyes of various countries were more focused on "magic energy".

Magic energy technology is the mainstream R&D direction of this era.

With the change in the nature of the magic element caused by the return of the magic element, it is likely that the appearance of magic guns has been put on the agenda.

……

There are basically no one else in the vicinity except for the soldiers.

Su Xian didn't find anyone who looked like a masquerade member, nor did he find anyone who seemed to use gray matter to pollute the clown's "bystander's eye" before.

The former don't know the specifics, while the latter may be in the energy furnace.

"If that's the case, the Joker shouldn't be unaware of this, unless there's something on the other side of the energy furnace that makes him feel taboo, or he can't get into the energy furnace at all!"

There is an invisible wall outside the energy furnace.

That's probably why the clown made a big fuss.

Su Xian couldn't help but squint, and he began to think about whether he should do it immediately, or wait for the clown to lure the man out before doing it.

But he didn't think long for the question to be answered.

A door opened from the wall of the energy furnace, and a man wearing a military uniform and a military insignia with a distinctly different momentum walked out from behind the door.

The man was wearing a beret, strong and strong, but with an unusually handsome face, and he had no weapon in his hand, except a gray ball with an eye protruding from it, a polluted "bystander's eye".

However, there are a large number of weapons hanging from his waist, and it seems that there are not only the usual daggers, but also the whip and the three-pronged army thorn.

As soon as he stepped out of the door, he walked up to the roof of the nearest building through the outside ladder, and then walked all the way up the roof.

His pace was not fast, and it took him a while to come this way, stopping at the edge of the roof.

From the point of view of location.

The clown plays with people in the middle of the road.

And Su Xian and the man happened to be on the roof of the three-story building on both sides of the road.

If it weren't for Su Xian being in a state of invisibility all the time, he would definitely look at that person at this moment.

"Your Excellency."

The man looked at the clown underneath and said very calmly.

"Hey! Is Ken finally coming out? ”

The clown quickly looked up, and suddenly conjured two new colored balls and threw them at the few people who chased them in front of him.

Two colored balls glow black in the air.

The faces of those people suddenly changed sharply, and they desperately rushed to the side.

The clown rolled over and jumped onto the window, and after a few ups and downs, he reached the roof, laughing and looking at the soldiers on the opposite roof.

At the same time, there was a loud noise below, and the colored balls exploded, creating two large craters on the ground.

……

In the sound of the explosion, Su Xian looked at the clown who took the initiative to come to his side, and couldn't help but look weird.
