Chapter 21: The True Face (Part II)
Ronan stood still, surviving the initial whirlwind. After a while, he tried to move his hands and flex his toes, and sure enough, he found that some of his fingers and joints were sore and numb, and the whole person felt as if he had drunk too much wine, and the sensitivity of his reaction had inexplicably dropped by a level.
Moreover, the state of the flash of inspiration and the spring of thought just now is no longer seen, and my brain seems to be covered with a membrane, and I want to go to sleep in a drowsy state.
Ronan didn't panic, just sighed: It's still here!
Since he was detained on a warship yesterday and only came out early this morning, it is impossible for him to go and dispense the potions...... Well, with the reserves of pharmaceutical raw materials, he will not have a problem even if he goes home. Therefore, in the past five years, the daily potion preparation work that he had worked so hard to maintain was finally stopped.
Most of the discomfort just now comes from the abnormal activity of the nervous system, which can be regarded as a drug withdrawal reaction.
In this regard, Ronan was mentally prepared after the problem with the drug channel, and he was also vigilant when he accelerated his metabolism yesterday. I just didn't expect that the stage of tight and slow defense has passed, but this problem has only broken out now.
Ronan staggered a few steps and felt fine, barely holding on, but he didn't have to look in the mirror, and he knew that his face must be terrible.
Well, now there is a valid reason to go to the medical department.
Twenty minutes later, Ronan walked slowly into the medical department, which is not only the medical science department of Zhixing College, but also a well-known general hospital in Xia City, which is open to college students for free, but before entering, they must make an appointment online to identify themselves.
Ronan's criteria for making an appointment with a doctor were simple, which one he chose was the longest in line. After making an appointment, I didn't pay attention to the information on the appointment form, and walked around the medical department.
It seems to be aimless, but in fact, when I stepped into the main building of the medical department, the sense from the target was already very clear.
It should be about 70 meters to the east...... That's the inpatient unit.
As the distance drew closer, Ronan could even feel the resentment and fear in the subject's heart, coiled and grilled in a very distorted way, and a constant stream of emotional distractions mixed in, like the constant spraying of spice on a barbecued steak.
Uh, why do you think that?
Just as he was wondering how he was thinking of it, his feet shook slightly, and they quickly became violent, and the doors and windows of the medical department were rattling.
"Here we go again!" In the midst of the commotion, patients, students, professors, and others of the medical department rushed out of the buildings like moving ants, and in a matter of minutes, they filled the central courtyard.
Emergency escape routes in hospitals have also been opened, ready to transfer critically ill patients at any time.
But that's what happened to earthquakes. The "regular earthquake" lasted about half a minute or so, followed by two more aftershocks, and then there was no sound.
There were scolding voices in the courtyard, and the seismic activity in Xia Cheng for half a month has made a lot of noise in special public places such as hospitals. Every time there is an earthquake, the crowd must be evacuated in accordance with the regulations, and the treatment business will be carried out after the end of the day, tossing back and forth, and there is no medical accident, which is considered shit luck.
Ronan took a few steps through the chaotic flow of people, and suddenly stopped, because he felt that the target who had been in the inpatient department was moving quickly and moving towards him.
Seconds later, an electric sightseeing bus pulled out of the inpatient unit to the east and made its way down the sidewalk, with a young man dressed in casual clothes and several muscular men in the guise of a bodyguard.
Ronan's gaze was locked on the young man's face, this one he knew, and it was not surprising at all. Yes, it was Li Xuecheng, who was suffocated and comatose by him with hypnotism yesterday!
It seems that Li Xuecheng's state is still not very good, his face is bruised and swollen in many places, his expression is sluggish, but he is very anxious, he has been chattering about the bodyguards around him, and when it comes to the fierceness, he also patted the bodyguard's shoulder and back, and reprimanded him greatly, not caring about public places at all, giving people the feeling that he is already neurotic.
Li Xuecheng in this state naturally can't see the "big enemy" in the flow of people on the roadside. Instead, Ronan heard his name from the words that flowed out.
And sure enough...... This is it.
Ronan's gaze was projected, and before he could figure out what to do, a mutation protruded.
On Li Xuecheng's body, a dark red mist of light suddenly flew up, circling and changing in the shadows intertwined with the building of the medical department and the street trees, and finally formed a slightly humanoid demonic shadow.
No one saw it, except Ronan. His pupils contracted slightly, and he stood still, motionless.
I'm afraid no one is more familiar with this stuff than Ronan.
Burning Shadow, another Burning Shadow!
It turns out that there is not only one Burning Shadow......
And the most incredible thing is that at this moment, Ronan's feeling is not surprise, vigilance, nervousness, etc., but hunger, irrepressible hunger.
The grain that was planted was ripe;
Cooked dishes, finished.
It's delicious, come on, have a full meal......
"Whoa!"
The black chain vibrated and its sound was like a sharp needle, piercing the center of Ronan's eyebrows. He shuddered, and all the deliciousness and hunger shattered in an instant.
However, the new burning shadow in front of him radiated a scorching power from the spiritual level, and poured down on Ronan. Among them, it is clearly full of hunger and greed!
The shadow flew and swooped down towards Ronan.
Ronan remained motionless, thoughtful, the intense greedy instinct that came from the burning shadow was revealing something to him.
At the same time, stimulated by the imminent threat, the chain tremor of "bang-la-la" was layered above his heart, and the power from the physical and mental forms continued to accumulate through various forms until a certain upper limit was reached.
In the next moment, the boundary between reality and illusion was silently torn, and the dark chain burst out from the center of Ronan's eyebrows, colliding head-on with the rushing Burning Demon Shadow, and instantly punched into it!
"Buzz!"
There is only a miserable hiss on the spiritual level, and for a moment it shines on reality. Hundreds of doctors, nurses, students, and patients at the scene were in a trance. Soon, however, the vague feeling vanished, as the abstract symbol shone brightly at the tip of the dark chain.
The dark red light illuminated the inside of the otherwise dark Burning Shadow, and unleashed a certain power that instantly transformed into a rapidly winding vortex.
The power of the vortex is extremely strong, that is, in the blink of an eye, the burning shadow of this "new understanding" is no longer formed, and most of its body is sucked into the abstract symbol by the vortex, increasing the brightness of the symbol. A small number of them collapsed and dissipated directly in the void.
Almost at the same time, the exclamations of the bodyguards sounded on the electric sightseeing car that had just passed by. Li Xuecheng, who was still irritable and scolded just now, suddenly fainted in the car, and he didn't know what to do.
There was a small commotion in the courtyard, and Li Xuecheng was hurriedly carried out of the car by the bodyguards and laid flat on the lawn next to him, his pupils turned up, his mouth foaming at the mouth, and his face was as white as a dead man.
Ronan turned his eyes and saw that the vitality that belonged to Li Xuecheng was like opening the floodgates, leaking out a lot, and at a level that could not be detected by the naked eye, it turned into wisps of light smoke, and along with the burning shadow of the collapse, it was involved in the void whirlpool.
Ronan's brows tightened, his mind moved slightly, the dark chains retracted, and the dark red abstract symbols were also included in the center of his eyebrows, and the void vortex disappeared.
Li Xuecheng's life force leakage process came to an abrupt end, but he had fallen into a deep coma.
Ronan stared at Li Xuecheng, who was unconscious on the lawn, with a serious expression. The victory was devastating, but he was not happy at all.
After a moment, Ronan took his eyes off Li Xuecheng and turned to the nearby crowd. Some people are curious, some people glance at it and ignore it completely, and some doctors and nurses rush in.
What can't happen in the hospital? Everything is a change in reality that people can understand.
But who knows that at a level they can't touch, there are invisible shadows arrogantly coming and going, eroding people's hearts and sucking essence?
Ronan is one, and Li Xuecheng is one.
Perhaps, the "U Spirit" couple who had a human tragedy also belongs to this category.
How many more? How many demons were released by that roar in the R&D area? And how many have already taken shape and plotted to kill people like they just did?
Not only that, but there is also a clear relationship of competition and devouring between the Burning Shadows. A looming web of food chains is formed.
Ronan looked at the noisy courtyard in amazement:
Is this still the world I know?
