Atlas of Heaven and Earth-Chapter 288: You Xing
After entering the car, Chen Chuan found a seat and sat down. There were not many people in the car at this time. The people around glanced at him and consciously stayed away.
New novel 𝓬hapters are published on ƒreewebɳovel.com.
Although he was only wearing casual clothes today, he could carry weapons and walk outside openly and aboveboard, and the faint sense of oppression he exuded made it clear that he was a Martial Artist .
Waiting for the car door to close, the tram started, and the news program on the screen in the car began to play.
"Hello everyone, this is the Roche program. Yesterday, another violent Martial Artist attack occurred on Ceshu Street. This is the twelfth case this month.
Yes, there are only twelve documented cases. This data has been statistically verified by the Government Agency and is absolutely correct!"
The screen showed a convoy of patrol cars whistling towards a building. The vehicles on both sides could only hurriedly avoid it. One of the cars crashed into the street guardrail because it could not dodge in time, and some people stuck their heads out and cursed.
"Look, our City Patrol members are once again on their way to the scene of the incident."
Behind him appeared scene after scene of vehicles speeding across the city. Countless images were superimposed, densely packed and uncountable, and finally slapped down by a hand.
The screen quickly switched to Roche's face with a cockscomb hairstyle, but it looked surprisingly pleasing to the eye.
"Do you know what? I suddenly thought of the rats in the city's sewers, who see corpses as a big meal and keep crowding towards them. When the corpses are gone, they wait for the next one.
Of course, I'm not talking about our hardworking and dedicated patrol members. Remember what our respectable Director Bao said?"
His accent became low and restrained, "The area of Central City is very large, and there are many places that need to be taken care of. Our police officer often have to rush to the next place after dealing with one incident. Most police officer can only eat two meals a day at most..."
The voice said strangely, "Oh~ you only lost your safety, but we lost a meal..."
Chen Chuan looked at the screen. Martial Artist crimes occur every day. The number appearing on the Marginal Channel is sometimes more than twelve a day, but it cannot be broadcast on mainstream channels.
Of course, the Security guard in several prosperous districts is strong, and there are indeed fewer such incidents. People there do not feel anything, but in those marginal areas and invisible corners, I don’t know how many conflicts occur every day.
The City Patrol team can actually only deal with some minor public security incidents. Neither gang conflicts, Martial Artist crimes, nor patients with functional disorder syndrome can be solved by the patrol team. They are just pushed out to provide the public with objects to vent and scold.
While he was watching, the tram arrived at the next stop. After a while, he felt a slight strangeness, because after someone got on the car, he sat next to him.
There were many empty seats on the car, and many people did not dare to approach him, but this person insisted on sitting over. Not only that, after this person sat down, he was dazed and muttered something in his mouth.
Wu Bei's somewhat nervous voice sounded in his ears: "Brother Chen, the Biological Field on this person is very chaotic, and he has many Implants on his body. He may have Mental Derangement..."
Chen Chuan glanced at this person. This person was not sitting upright, but with his back to him.
Seeming to notice his gaze, he suddenly turned his head. His body did not move, but his head turned directly to the back. It could be seen that he had undergone bone modification, and his two pupils were one large and one small, and changed back and forth several times.
Chen Chuan looked calmly. Although this person's pupils were constantly constricting and dilating, his eyes seemed very empty and numb. The muscles on his cheeks and skin were constantly twitching, and the murmur in his mouth never stopped. He vaguely seemed to hear, "Give it back to me, give it back to me..."
After a while, this person convulsed all over, his cheeks suddenly became hideous, and his mouth opened suddenly, as if he wanted to rush up and bite.
A hand gently pressed on his shoulder. As a stream of Internal energy penetrated in, he immediately became unable to move. Only his mouth opened and closed, making the sound of bone joints rubbing, and saliva flowed down from the corners of his mouth.
In the car, which was filled with various advertisements and news sounds, this movement was not noticeable at all. Outside was the constantly moving background, and the passengers inside were staring at the Boundary Token in front of them.
Everyone seemed to have not seen what happened here.
Chen Chuan used the Boundary Token to contact the tram platform and notified them. When he arrived at the next stop, the police officer and the station master at the station walked up in a hurry.
They were all experienced in handling this. The patrolman went up and skillfully put the man in a restraint cord, and the medical staff injected him with Drugs, and the latter immediately softened into a puddle.
The stationmaster couldn't help but curse: "These damn maggots always install second-hand Implants on their bodies and dare to do any surgery. They should rot in the mud in the slums." He then gratefully said to Chen Chuan : "Thank you, sir, for reporting the news."
Chen Chuan nodded slightly. He watched this person being taken down. After the tram resumed driving, he asked Wu Bei : "Brother Wu, has that person appeared before?"
Wu Bei replied: "No, he has never appeared before."
Chen Chuan thought for a while, could it be a coincidence?
This seemed to be just an accident. Until the tram arrived at the station, he returned to the Mysterious Palace Tower without seeing any accidents along the way.
However, in a corner of the building diagonally opposite, there was a person watching in this direction, and watched him walk into the Building until he left after watching for a while.
The next day, because it was the Radiant Light Irradiation day agreed with the Sea Realm Field, Chen Chuan went out early in the morning.
He didn’t know if it was because his evaluation score had increased, but the Academy not only gave him the irradiation quota for last month, but also did not squeeze this month's quota into next month.
So this time he simply arranged the quotas from the Processing Bureau and Cao Guiqi together to extend the time as much as possible.
He remembered what happened yesterday, so he kept in touch with Wu Bei along the way.
Nothing unexpected happened on the way. The connection was only broken after entering the Sea Realm Field's restricted area, because the Boundary Token could not be used in this place, and of course it was impossible to track him with energy field technology.
As for whether someone would choose to ambush him here.
Although the Sea Realm Field looks desolate, it is surrounded by Security guard patrols, and there are Watchtower along the road, and once something goes wrong, there is no place to escape in the vast territory, so he judged that even if someone wanted to be against him, he would not choose to do it there.
As he judged, there were no accidents during the half-hour walk after getting off the tram, and this time he stayed in the Sea Realm Field for a total of seven hours, and it was seven o'clock in the afternoon when he came out.
The sky was completely dark, and there were no street lights around, only the red light flashing from the Watchtower in the distance, but occasionally patrol cars would drive by and stop to ask him from a distance after seeing him.
Chen Chuan successfully arrived at the station. After waiting for a while, he got on the tram. There were still not many people at this time. The car was very empty. Occasionally, a few people got on and then got off.
After only two stops, he left the Sea Realm Field area. At this time, he originally planned to resume contact with Wu Bei , but for some reason, there was no response from there.
At this time, he suddenly noticed that the lights in the car began to flicker, and the tram seemed to have entered a dark tunnel. The scenery outside became blurred and dim. There was only the sound of the tram moving, and a faint phantom began to appear on Second Self .
Supernatural Entity?
Or……
His eyes moved slightly, and he reached out and turned off the Boundary Token, but the surrounding situation still existed. This didn't seem to be a light and shadow effect created by an energy field.
But he felt a trace of disharmony in it, so he ignored the Boundary Token and directly let Second Self bear the invasion of the Biological Field.
In an instant, everything around disappeared.
Sure enough, was there a problem with the Boundary Token?
However, that faint sense of invasion seemed to still exist.
He thought for a while, this method didn't seem to be Wei Wusheng's style. Someone else was watching him, and the other party couldn't have only prepared these, there should be follow-up.
If this was an action against him, then he would like to see what the other party's methods were.
After considering it, he did not continue to isolate the energy field invasion, but released it. In a moment, the surrounding scene returned to what he had just seen.
Very abruptly, it seemed that after a flicker, a person wearing a skull Mask was standing at the other end of the car. The hollow eye sockets were facing the direction he was in, and then he stepped forward and walked towards him step by step, and the Speed became faster and faster, and the last few steps had turned into running.
Chen Chuan could see that as this person approached, Second Self's fading was gradually deepening, so he did not let the other party come up, but calmly raised the Snow Emperor Blade and pushed it forward, and at the moment when the Snow Emperor Blade came into contact with that person, the person wearing the skull Mask disappeared.
Everything returned to its original state. The tram was still moving forward, and the scenery outside was sprinkled into the car along with the neon lights at night.
Did the other party take the initiative to withdraw?
Chen Chuan glanced at Second Self . The signs of fading were still there.
In a dark house in the Voidward District, a hunched figure was sitting there. The four walls were full of holes, and long branches like vines stretched out from the outside and wrapped around his body.
And at the moment when Chen Chuan used his knife to push away the skull Mask man, he suddenly opened his eyes, the whites of his eyes were full of blood, he turned his eyes twice, and made a hoarse voice: "It succeeded."
He slowly stood up and came to a stone niche in front of him. It was a strange statue, like an upright raccoon, with its mouth and eyes bulging outwards, and its claws holding a stone plate, which looked extremely strange.
He reached out and picked up a small knife, slowly cut open his chest, and when the gap was wide enough, he reached in and cut out some fragments of Mutated Tissue, sprinkled them on the stone plate in front, then took a few steps back and kowtowed heavily.
