125 clones have skills
There is no need to reason, as long as anyone with eyes can immediately conclude that the internal warlock who caught Qiao An is in the same group as Wei Chi and the fanatics.
Is he a ghost of the Security Service? No, he wasn't a member of the Security Service from the beginning. As he tricked into Jo'an's side in a ghostly way, I thought of Wei Chi's doppelgänger from his movements—the doppelganger's movements were exactly the same as the current internal warlock. Obviously, Wei Chi used his doppelganger to disguise himself as a staff member of the Liucheng Security Bureau.
But why did Wei Chi catch Qiao An, because he saw Qiao An following me, so he wanted to use it as a hostage? Finally an opponent who thinks hostage tactics will work for me? Or is he going to use it on someone else, trying to buy respite? Although he died soon due to serious injuries, if he was given too much time to breathe, it was hard to guarantee that he would not come up with any way to prolong his life.
Or did he have other intentions for Joan? Several assumptions crossed my mind in a split second. For example, he doesn't know where he learned that Joan is also a wizard of spells, so he wants to capture Joan alive like he captured Bluebird, but what he tries to do to Bluebird should be limited to blood relatives. Or is his target not Joan, but Ash? It can't be that he was fascinated by Joan's charm, right?
While I was thinking, my movements did not slow down, trying to save Joan. However, it was too late, and the interval between the activation and the effective time of their space transfer was very short. In the blink of an eye, the figures of the clone and Qiao An evaporated from the spot, and the figures of Yu Chi and the fanatic believer also disappeared at the same time. All that remained was a mess.
I couldn't tell where they were going, so I had to stop my movements and look around. From the time we fought to the end, it seemed like we could talk a lot, but in fact there wasn't even two seconds of effort, and no one used a destructive move, but the shock wave from the confrontation still swept the other non-combatants in the room away. Most of them were even knocked unconscious, and Qiao Licorice also fell to the ground unconscious, and many of the comatose people who had been lying in bed were also injured by the impact.
Fortunately, the medical examiner was not unconscious, and he stood up dizzily with the cabinet next to him, "Fight...... The battle is over? ”
It's not over yet, it's better to say that it's the key point. I was very worried about Joan's safety, but the more times like this, the more I couldn't afford to mess with myself. You have to find a way to track down where they are after the space has shifted.
And the bluebird undoubtedly thought of the same place as I did. Needless to say, she had already walked to the place where Wei Chi and the fanatics had disappeared, and then closed her eyes. It was evident that she was using her senses to track the direction of their spatial shift. It's something I can't do, I can only count on her to play.
I looked at Lieque again, he was still standing with his eyes closed, his mind still immersed in dreams, not necessarily aware of the battle that was taking place in reality.
"Can you wake up now?" I asked the medical examiner about it.
"I'll try." Although he seems to have lost his deafness from the impact just now, he can still pick up my voice with his senses.
He staggered behind Lie Que and pressed his right hand down the opponent's back again. But soon, he had an ugly expression, "unable to connect with him in his dreams...... Communication was cut off. However, he seems to be aware of the changes in the real world, but he can't exit the dream on his own, so it seems as if he is trying to destroy the dream itself from within......"
I asked straight up, "How long will it take him?" ”
"I don't know, but it shouldn't take more than half an hour." He replied.
It only takes such a time to destroy the collective dreams that fanatics have been deliberately creating, and it is not insignificant. But the most missing thing now is time, and I can't convince myself to wait here for half an hour. But how do you go about the next step? Just as I was pondering, there was a result on the Blue Bird's side.
"Tracked!" She opened her eyes with blazing eyes, "I'll go investigate first!" ”
"Wait, it's dangerous to be alone." I said, "I'll go too." ”
"Don't worry, I'll keep my distance from them." After saying that, she didn't wait for me to speak, and hurriedly turned into thunder and lightning and left.
She used to complain about my lone ranger style, but she wasn't much better herself, was she? But as long as she's keeping her distance, I'm not worried about her having an accident. With her thunderous speed, Wei Chi and the fanatical believers' speed was a hundred times faster, and they could only reach the dust.
In just a dozen seconds, her phone called, and I heard her voice after I connected it, "Their location after transfer is still in the interior of Liucheng, in the grove almost forty kilometers away from you, but I can't find out where they are, and I can't determine the direction in which they left." ”
It would be nice if they were fools who set the transfer coordinates in their own stronghold, but the reality is obviously not that simple. Since their long-range spatial movements are so easy to track, they will definitely set their coordinates outside of the stronghold, and then they will move on foot on the basis of being as stealthy as possible, whether they return to the stronghold or go somewhere else.
Bluebird gave me the exact address of the grove. I'm going to get to her as fast as I can. But even if you do, what can you do? We still don't know where they are, we just spin around like flies without heads.
If I had been a well-trained and experienced agent in an action movie, I might have been able to unknowingly stick a miniature locator or something to my opponent's body in the confrontation just now. It's a pity that I don't talk about training and experience, I don't even carry a locator like that at all - no, wait.
I suddenly realized something particularly crucial.
Is there really no "locator"? Actually, there is, although that "locator" is neither miniature nor a thing, and I didn't take the initiative to stick it to them, but just now, Wei Chi took the initiative to take it himself!
Although it is not yet possible to determine the reason for his arrest of Joan, this move was definitely a mistake.
A wrong move that will expose their whereabouts!
I immediately rushed out of the nursing room and made a phone call to my landline.
Moments later, the landline was connected.
"Joan, is that you?" I asked.
From the other side came the voice of a stumbling, immature child, "Yes, me." ”
Not long ago, with the help of the power of the succubus, Joan made a doppelganger for herself with the doppelganger spell that the succubus had learned before his death.
It was a successful attempt, he wasn't even able to manipulate the clone to walk, but since he didn't know how to dismantle it, the clone ended up in my house. And now I'm thankful that he didn't get rid of that clone. His main body can always grasp the position of the doppelganger, and the perception between the two sides is synchronized, which means that the doppelganger can also grasp the position of the main body at all times.
He told me that after being kidnapped by Wei Chi, he actually wanted to manipulate the clone to call me, but the problem was that although he had my mobile phone number, he only saved it in his mobile phone, and he didn't write it down, and the phone was not placed with the clone. Fortunately, I called in time and finally got in touch.
I also told the good news to Bluebird, and she said she would come soon. In addition, when I returned to my accommodation, the Security Bureau quickly found out how Wei Chi and the fanatics had infiltrated the Security Bureau.
There is not even a need to investigate carefully, just go back after the incident and simply look at the signs of destruction near the scene.
If nothing else, the two had been lurking in other care rooms, only a few rooms away from the care room we were. In other words, it is likely that they have made a sophisticated disguise for themselves, pretending to be innocent sleepers, taking advantage of the psychology of darkness under the lights of the security bureau to fall asleep for several days in a row. It seems that they are trapped in collective dreams like other sleepers, but in fact they are hidden behind the scenes in the form of dream dominators, and can also unexpectedly wreak havoc within the Security Service at critical moments.
Wei Chi also put a doppelganger of himself in reality, disguised as an internal warlock who was responsible for taking care of the sleepy. The purpose is nothing more than to make an insurance, and this insurance definitely works. I had inflicted a heavy blow on him in my dream, and in reality his body must have suffered an extremely large hemorrhage, but this bizarre situation was not reported in the first place, and it was obviously the doppelganger who was responsible.
After Lieq's invasion of the collective dream, the fanatic and Wei Chi also discovered Lieq's invasion from the inner part of the dream, and realized two crucial places:
First, since things have come to this point, the plan based on collective dreams must have come to naught;
Second, no matter how you look at it, this is a great opportunity to kill the column.
Then, without hesitation, they slammed straight through the wall and took the shortest path to the nursing room where we were.
In order to prevent Lieqi from waking up immediately, the fanatic believers probably made some temporary adjustments to the collective dream, and the medical examiner's inability to establish contact with the Lieqi in the dream and Lieque's inability to exit the dream for a short time are probably the same reasons.
But the fanatics and Wei Chi must not have imagined that this person could not only sleep standing up, but also fight while sleeping. They actively expose their decisions without reaping the slightest benefit.
If there's one thing they have to say, it's Joan. But Joan has also become a key "magic weapon" for us to track them down.
By the time I saw the trumpeted Joan clone, he had already hobbled downstairs, nervously borrowing a knife from my kitchen. For convenience, let's call him "Little Joan" in the future. And, again, for convenience, although Joan was very unskilled in manipulating this body to speak, the next thing was to assume that he was very skilled in speaking, so as to omit some unnecessary repetition.
The bluebird arrived almost at the same time as me. At her pace, I thought she would arrive first, but she seemed to have done something in the grove and delayed a little.
"Just in case, I did a little bit of havoc over there." As she spoke, she glanced at little Joan, "I didn't expect there to be a doppelganger." ”
I felt that she wanted to tease me a few words on the subject, but the timing was not right before she held back in seriousness.
In addition, I had already asked little Joan about the location of his body on the phone, but he said that his body was blindfolded and could not describe where the body was in Liucheng.
"My body is not in danger of life for the time being, and I have not been harmed in any way, but I don't know what Wei Chi wants to do to me in the future." His demeanor when he spoke seemed to be emotionless, but this was only because he couldn't manipulate the clone flexibly, and from what I knew about him, he was probably already scared of the six gods at this time, "I'll see if I can talk to him......"
"There's no rush yet." Blue Bird calmly took out his mobile phone and opened the map, "Since you can sense the location of the main body, can you point it out on the map?" Just point it out for me, and it only takes me a few seconds to get there. ”
I also focused, and little Joan glanced at the map on her phone, then shook her head, "I can't do it." ”
"Is it because the sense of the position of the body is not clear enough?" Bluebird asked.
"No, I can clearly grasp the position of the body, but ......" little Joan didn't know how to say, "but I can't express it." ”
"Can't express it?" Bluebird wondered.
"It's because I can't translate my sense of distance into words, and I don't know how to use it as a reference." I quickly understood the difficulty that little Joan was experiencing, and immediately carried him on his back, "It's like walking fifty steps and then looking back at the place where you were standing, although this distance itself can be seen clearly with the eyes, but if you want to know how many meters this distance is, or even down to centimeters, you still have to measure it by other means." ”
The distance between Joan's body and the doppelganger is more than tens of kilometers, so it is naturally not so simple to transform the feeling of distance into more specific information.
After that, I asked him to show me and the Blue Bird in the direction, and then carried him on my back and ran at full speed.
Although the blue bird can transform into thunder and lightning, it can't do it with anyone other than himself, at most he can only bring his own clothes and props, and now he can only walk together.
"You can't see with your eyes, but your hearing and perception shouldn't have been sealed, right?" As I walked at high speed, I wanted to get a little insight into the movement over there through little Joan, "Do you know what Wei Chi and the fanatics are doing right now?" ”
"They said they were going back to the stronghold first, and then they would withdraw from Liucheng after sorting out the things there." Little Joan hid her face behind my neck to block the wind, "There seem to be teleportation coordinates inside the stronghold, but they have to return on foot because they want to avoid being tracked. ”
"Are they acting together now?" I asked.
He shook his head, "No...... The fanatic believer separated from Wei Chi in the middle of the way, saying that in order to deal with Lieque's subsequent pursuit, he had to prepare something first. ”
