Chapter 32 A Treacherous Heart
Another tricky and bizarre situation has arisen, and Xu Si's mental state has been raised to its highest level.
Apart from Xu Si, no one else noticed anything strange.
To Xu Si's surprise, the strange energy core appeared on the overturned truck bed like a will-o'-the-wisp, without any intention of attacking them.
It was as if they were watching these two lambs.
"Brother Shan, that truck, from the very top, threw a punch!" Xu Si said through the walkie-talkie, but no one responded. Ta Shan had already gotten out of the car to clear the roadblocks.
However, a bombardment suddenly rang out. It was Su Su. Although she didn't understand why Xu Si was doing this, Su Su still made her move.
Xu Si clearly saw the strange creature pause for a moment and look towards the back of the convoy, but Su Su's fist had no effect on it at all; it simply moved to another spot and continued to watch the group.
"Not easy to deal with," was Xu Si's first thought.
Just then, a sudden change occurred in the convoy.
The Mengshi vehicle suddenly accelerated forward and crashed directly into Tashan, who was clearing roadblocks.
Caught off guard, Tashan was thrown into the wreckage of vehicles in front of him.
Immediately afterwards, the school bus, the coach, the pickup truck, and the two cars following behind all seemed to go crazy and rushed forward, causing a series of rear-end collisions that erupted in an instant.
Even so, the rear wheels of these cars that had collided were still spinning in the air.
At this moment, Su Su stepped on the roofs of several cars and threw a heavy punch at Ta Shan, and the two instantly started fighting.
"What's going on?" Xu Si, driving at the back of the convoy, was instantly dumbfounded.
"Help, help me..." Xiao Luo's cries for help came through the walkie-talkie. Xu Si immediately sensed something was wrong; this was very wrong.
Xu Si jumped out of the car window with his sword in hand, and immediately saw Wang Hu slamming on the gas in the car in front of him, while the cute little girl was beating up her father.
Without thinking twice, he smashed the car window, pulled the little girl out, slapped her on the back of the neck to give her a physical hypnosis, and then threw her into his father's trunk.
This blow wasn't to protect Wang Hu, but to protect the little girl.
He didn't dare to delay and went straight to the Mengshi vehicle.
At this moment, the rear of the Mengshi vehicle was deformed by the roof of the bus, and the front of the vehicle was bumping into the school bus, making a loud thud.
The people inside the bus were fighting each other as if they had lost their minds, and in the driver's seat was a man whose body had been beaten to a bloody pulp.
The situation was just as dire inside the school bus at the very front.
At this moment, Xiao Luo, who was in the back seat of the Warrior, was banging on the car window. Fu Xiaojian had one hand around Xiao Luo's neck and the other hand was fighting with the old butler.
Is this a case of master and servant turning against each other?
Xu Si didn't have time to think. He quickly opened the car door, rescued Xiao Luo first, and locked Fu Xiaojian and the old butler in the Mengshi car.
There are only two able-bodied people in the team now, and they are probably the only ones who can solve the problem.
"Cough cough cough," Xiao Luo coughed violently twice, clearly terrified. If it were an ordinary person, he might have been strangled to death by Fu Xiaojian.
"Brother Fu, what happened to them?" Xiao Luo finally managed to utter a complete sentence.
"This isn't the time to talk about that! There's a spirit-like anomaly there; do you have any ideas on how to deal with it?"
Xu Si spoke very quickly, while his star-like eyes were fixed on the strange energy core that was jumping around on the pile of wrecked cars as if watching a show.
It seems to be enjoying the chaotic scene of infighting below.
"A ghostly phenomenon?"
Xiao Luo's face turned pale. He himself was a spiritualist and was most wary of such intangible and intangible strange phenomena that directly affected the mind.
"My... my psionic barrier doesn't seem to be working; it's already affecting everyone!"
"If the barrier is useless, then attack! Do you have any means to control it? Anything that can influence it will do!" Xu Si urged.
His Seiya is also in the form of energy, which should be effective against strange entities, but it has a fatal flaw: the wind-up animation before attacking. Therefore, he is not confident that he can hit the target with a single blow.
"I...I'll give it a try!" Xiao Luo took a deep breath. He had a "psychic surge" ability, but he had never used it before.
"I don't know where it is?" Xiao Luo was ready, but didn't know where to put it.
"Stop talking nonsense, that's the highest point of that wrecked truck!" Xu Si led Xiao Luo onto the roof of the bus, just as the "ghost fire" looked at them, seemingly with a puzzled expression.
"Alright," Xiao Luo said without any hesitation, pointing towards the abandoned train. Fortunately, "Psychic Surge" was a range control, so knowing the approximate range was enough.
In Xu Sixing's eyes, the energy core that resembled a "ghost fire" trembled suddenly, as if it had been disturbed, and the frequency of its jumps became momentarily disordered.
At the same time, the fighting between Fu Xiaojian and the old butler inside the Mengshi vehicle ahead also stopped.
The bus also fell into a brief period of peace.
It works!
"Boom!" Blood flashed from Xu Si's fingers, just like the Six Meridians Divine Sword, directly shattering the "ghost fire".
This time, he won't use the Sword of Punishment as Seiya's vessel.
This place is completely open and unobstructed; once the [Sword of Punishment] flies out, it's hard to retrieve.
Fortunately, his ultimate move is an energy body; otherwise, it would be really difficult to find a suitable vessel for it.
[Purify Level 1 Eerie Specter - Malevolent Intent, Purification Points +1000]
Xu Si felt a sense of relief, and the notification sound of purification points arriving was like heavenly music.
He immediately looked down at the chaotic convoy.
The people who had been attacking each other froze for a moment, and the madness and turbidity in their eyes gradually faded, replaced by bewilderment and astonishment.
"What...what was I doing just now?" Tashan looked at the wrecked car he had smashed with his punch, then at Su Su, who was in a defensive stance with blood at the corner of her mouth. His honest face was full of astonishment.
Su Su quickly withdrew her fist, her cold eyes sweeping over the surroundings, and immediately understood the situation: "Our minds have been affected."
Inside the Mengshi vehicle, Fu Xiaojian released his grip on the old butler, his expression grim as he looked at the bruises on the man's face and his disheveled clothes: "Uncle Chen, are you alright?"
The old butler coughed violently and waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.
In Pikachu, Jiao Jiao looked at her hands, which were now covered in bloodstains, and winced in pain.
Wang Hu had also woken up by this time, but he couldn't find his daughter. He was both shocked and frightened.
The chaos receded like the tide, leaving behind only a mess and lingering fear.
"Everyone stay in the vehicles and don't move! Xiao Luo, keep the psionic barrier active to prevent other strange entities from approaching! Ta Shan and Su Su, continue clearing the wreckage. The convoy must leave this area immediately! Xiao Luo and Xu Si, be on guard!"
Fu Xiaojian immediately understood what was going on, quickly took over command of the convoy, and his voice, carried through the loudspeaker, resonated throughout the convoy with an undeniable calmness.
Xu Si carried Xiao Luo back to his car; the two of them needed to work together now.
"The trunk!" He tapped on the trunk as he passed Wang Hu's car, trying to remind his father, who was on the verge of a breakdown.
He was afraid that this guy might actually do something stupid.
