Chapter 12 Deficiencies in Capacity
At the entrance of the hotel, there were people all around, and the damage caused by the mental impact just now could not be recovered so quickly, but fortunately, there was no fear of life.
Logan pushed the professor through the crowd, and the scene in front of him made the professor's sense of self-blame continue to strengthen, and he kept apologizing to the people around him.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry......"
"Sorry......"
The subtle apology kept ringing out, but the guilt in the professor's heart still did not weaken in the slightest, he didn't want to hurt anyone, but the aging body could no longer contain his increasingly strong mental power.
Xu Yue followed behind him, his eyes were indifferent, in the world of transcendent existence, the weak could not even control life and death, this was not a class gap, but a difference in life class.
Only by growing stronger can you control your own destiny.
Quickly weaving through the crowd, Logan helped the professor into the back seat and threw the wheelchair into the back body, a green pickup truck, not as comfortable as the previous one, but solid enough to handle.
After Xu Yue and Laura got into the car one after another, the pickup truck galloped away into the distance.
On the co-pilot, Xu Yue saw a familiar figure through the rearview mirror, it was Donald, the leader of the marauders, who stood behind the flow of people, angrily looking at the direction of the pickup driving away, but did not choose to continue the pursuit.
The Professor's outburst made him feel terrified from the bottom of his heart, the number of people was meaningless under this force, and only by eliminating the Professor first could he have any hope of recapturing Laura.
…………
In the vast green field, a pickup truck is driving down a wide highway lined with large meadows and corn groves.
It was already the second day that Logan and the others had left the hotel, and they were already halfway through the journey.
Xu Yue slept heavily in the somewhat shaky car, and the sequelae of massive blood loss made him always want to sleep.
"Rescuers...... Hotel...... Paralysis. ”
"A year ago...... Same...... X-Men ...... Mourning...... I can't help but ....... ”
The intermittent sound of the radio came into Xu Yue's mind, and then gradually disappeared without a trace.
"How long has it been since you took your pills, Charles."
This is Logan's voice, with a slight tone, is it arguing?
"I don't know, about 2 days."
The professor's aggrieved voice is like a child's, but this scene seems familiar, where do I seem to have seen it?
Professor? Wait, where am I now?
"Bang"
A huge collision sounded, followed by violent shaking, Xu Yue felt that he was riding a roller coaster, his body swaying uncontrollably left and right, and his consciousness became even more drowsy.
Why can't I open my eyes, my body feels heavy......
Squeak –
The vehicle stopped suddenly, and then stopped suddenly, under the action of inertia, Xu Yue's head slammed on the window on the side, making a crisp sound, and the stinging pain came, but it also made Xu Yue's consciousness gradually wake up from the chaos.
"Burn, fire, are you okay?"
The strange movement of the co-pilot attracted the attention of everyone in the car, and they all looked at Xu Yue.
"It's okay, it's just a little painful."
Xu Yue, who had already come to his senses, responded, rubbed the corner of his forehead that had been in close contact with the glass just now, and waved his hand to Rogan.
"What's going on out there?"
"A damn autonomous van lost control and almost crashed."
"It's a bastard."
Logan had already moved the car away from the road, looking at the departing van, his tone was a little gritted.
"Boom! Boom! ”
A few abrupt horse chirpings came from the road on the other side, and Xu Yue looked sideways, a truck transporting horses also had something wrong in the accident just now, and the horses all ran out and scurried on the road.
The family in charge of transporting the horses was looking at the horses running around and feeling a little helpless.
"We should help them."
The professor also saw the scene outside the car and said to Logan in the driver's seat.
"No, we have to keep walking, someone will come." Logan didn't want to get out of the way.
"Isn't this already coming?"
This sentence made Logan a little snorted.
Eventually, the professor convinced Logan that he was a good teacher and was always good at teaching by example.
The vehicle was flicked by Logan and drove to the vicinity of the truck, and the professor used his mind ability to control the horse to return to the cage in an orderly manner, and after the last seizure and mental riot, his mind was much easier.
Logan went to help push the truck to start, and Laura ran down to see the excitement, she had never seen a horse yet.
And Xu Yue still didn't get up in the co-pilot, and he didn't even pay attention to the movement outside the car.
Something was wrong just now, he had a mental problem, it was definitely not because of blood loss, if he hadn't knocked his head before, he wouldn't even be able to wake up.
But Paradise doesn't indicate an anomaly, which is his own problem, not a plot against him.
"Flame, what's wrong with you?"
The professor sitting in the back row noticed Xu Yue's somewhat gloomy look and asked with concern.
"I think there's something wrong with my spirit, Professor."
Xu Yue looked at the professor, the other party was a top psychic master and ability development master, and it was a good choice to ask him for help, provided that the other party was in a state of sobriety.
"I can't get into your heart, it's full of purple flames, but I can see that your ability is very strange, it burns more than just your body, and this may be the crux of the problem."
When it comes to ability development, the professor is obviously interested, recalling the scene of Xu Yue lighting a fire in the hotel, and the professor is thoughtful.
"Absorbing this flame will make you stronger, but the burden on your spirit will increase day by day, and you must refrain from using it."
"Professor, our current situation is not optimistic, I need strength." Xu Yue smiled bitterly.
The professor also understood what the current situation was, and now Xu Yue was still wrapped in gauze, he hesitated for a while, looked at the family outside who were inviting them to dinner because of Logan's help, and turned to Xu Yue and said:
"If you don't mind, it might be helpful for you to let me learn more about your flame in the evening."
"Of course I don't mind, I'm sorry for you, Professor."
After the conversation, the professor looked out of the car again, interrupted Logan's words about to refuse, and smiled that he was very happy to accept the invitation.
Late at night, in a farmhouse next to a cornfield.
At the kind invitation of the family, they enjoyed a sumptuous dinner together, and of course, in Xu Yue's opinion, the taste was ordinary.
But the professor and Laura had a good meal, and they talked happily during the period, Xu Yue played a good role in social fear, eating more and saying less, he is now more concerned about his mental problems, which is related to his growth rate.
After successfully entering the protagonist team, he is already eighty percent sure of completing the task, and he has at least two chances to kill X-24 next, but the premise is that the plot cannot be drastically changed, so he has been very restrained these days.
The meal lasted an hour before it ended, and Logan was going to travel overnight, he had the same experience, an old couple took him in on the way to escape, but he was eventually killed by him, and he was afraid that the same situation would happen again.
But under the professor's plea, Logan still compromised, and Xu Yue did not speak the whole time, even if he knew what the ending would be next, but he needed the opportunity that the plot brought him.
In the end, the professor, Laura and Xu Yue stayed at the farmhouse to rest, while Logan followed the owner to the water supply station in the distance to deal with the water outage, and they continued to set off after dawn tomorrow morning.
After the hostess of the farm arranged their respective rooms for them, Xu Yue did not rest, but came to the professor's room.
The dimly lit room was not lit, and a purple flame curled in the center of the room, and a demonic purple glow overflowed from the flame until it covered the entire room.
The professor sat in front of the flames and brushed the fire in Xu Yue's palm with his hand, and the fire suddenly fluctuated, but it did not bring any harm to the professor.
"It's a strange flame, in the form of a flame, igniting the enemy you killed, but after it is formed, it only reacts to the metal, and is harmless to the rest, right?"
Looking at the professor's eyes exuding a strong desire for research, Xu Yue nodded.
Take out a steel ingot from the space and put it on the fire, the fire that was quiet before is visibly irritable, and the flames turn into small snakes that entangle the whole steel ingot.
In an instant, the steel ingot turned into a puddle of silver water, emitting a little purple light.
