Chapter 594: Flash in the Dark

“What- What happened?” Shen Hai was shocked by the change of Jiang Liushi’s body. He could sense clearly that the Sprite Queen was in Jiang Liushi’s brain region, but it seemed that another more powerful entity was also in his brain. In other words, Jiang Liushi’s brain was as strong as iron, which couldn’t be broken at all!
The cluster of blue light covering Jiang Liushi became more and more exuberant. Shen Hai sensed that the Sprite Queen was fighting against that hidden entity in Jiang Liushi’s mind. However, the Sprite Queen was gradually getting weaker.
As the Sprite Queen got weaker, something amazing happened. Suddenly, the energy fluctuations of the infected under Shen Hai’s control became violent.
A level-2 paranormal roared and smashed the sternum of another paranormal next to him. The latter paranormal’s sternum was shattered, and he coughed a mouthful of blood mixed with internal organs. Then, the level-2 paranormal grabbed a steel bar from the ground and plunged into the back of another paranormal’s head!
Shen Hai was startled and annoyed. It was evident that there was something wrong with the Sprite Queen as the paranormals under his control had broken free.
At that moment, Shen Hai had a foreboding feeling, one related to his life and death! He suddenly turned his head and saw that Jiang Liushi’s tour bus had been launched.
The vehicle exuded rays of black light, and everything around it seemed to be distorted by the black rays.
‘This is…!’ Shen Hai was sacred as he was quite familiar with that kind of energy and its source – the Black Hole!
Even before establishing Genesis, they had found another Black Hole, which later became one of the scientific research’s study materials. It was a pity that the one they had found was a small one with a limited amount of black light energy.
Genesis had spent dozens of years studying it, but they had yet to find its origins or what its usage was. Only after the huge Black Hole’s emergence had they realized that the one they had found first was way smaller. Unfortunately for them, the one who had obtained the huge one, or better say its core, was Jiang Liushi. It was obvious that the ray of light covering the tour bus was black light.
‘Did Jiang Liushi integrate the Black Hole with his car!? How is it possible?’ Shen Hai suddenly felt that he had underestimated Jiang Liushi’s real strength.
“Boom!”
Suddenly, Jiang Liushi jumped in the air and landed on the tour bus’ roof heavily. His body was still being burned by blue flames. It seemed that he was still unable to control his movement completely. His eyes were like a fierce beast’s, not something a normal person would possess.
The MCV let out a thunderous sound and started absorbing the blue flames through the Black Hole Core. All the flames were being absorbed at an alarming rate. At the same time, the MCV shook aggressively as if a primordial dragon was awakening from its deep slumber.
“The Black Hole is absorbing my Sprite Queen?” Shen Hai stood agape.
The hidden entity in Jiang Liushi’s mind had protected him completely. Once the Sprite Queen was transferred and absorbed by the Black Hole, nobody knew what would happen, including Shen Hai. The latter was definitely unwilling to let it happen.
“No way!” Shen Hai roared loudly and used his psychic power again. In fact, it was challenging even for Shen Hai to keep using all his mental energy to fight. Even he would feel weak and tired. Unfortunately, he had no time to relax as Ran Xiyu, at the expense of over-exhausting her power, had been attacking him relentlessly. Moreover, Jiang Zhuying was also sending his way terrifying electric attacks.
Shen Hai did not want to drag the battle any longer. As a psychic paranormal, his physique and endurance were inferior to other paranormals. It was likely that he would get heavily hurt. Therefore, he had to get rid of his enemies as fast as possible during any battle.
As such, he concentrated all his mental power and sent it down to his primary target, Jiang Liushi. Once his condensed mental power hit Jiang Liushi, it was possible that his brain would be severely hurt; maybe even turning him into a fool. In Shen Hai’s eyes, it was better for Jiang Liushi to turn into a fool than letting him run away.
Suddenly, a thunderous sound came from the tour bus as a huge barrel was stretched of it. That was the air cannon’s barrel, but what it was about to discharge was not compressed air, it was a beam of dark energy!
In the surrounding space, Black Light was condensed into tiny particles of light, which gathered together into the barrel. At the same time, the blue flames covering Jiang Liushi’s body also filled the gun tube. When the Shen Hai’s mental force was about to strike Jiang Liushi and his tour bus, a beam of dark energy was discharged with a thunderous sound!
As soon as the beam of dark energy left the barrel, it seemed to be the only one between heaven and the earth, and even the sun seemed to be dimmed by it!
If one were to look carefully, they would a blue flow of energy intertwined on the surface of the beam of dark energy. The blue energy looked like a network of blood vessels. The two types of energy’s combination easily shattered Shen Hai’s condensed mental force. The beam’s power did not diminish in the least, and it headed toward Shen Hai’s chest extremely fast!
“What!?” Shen Hai was shocked. He controlled the disk under his feet and tried to dodge immediately. But just at that moment, Shen Hai suddenly felt a strong suction, making it difficult for him to move! He was scared to death because it was the first time he had sensed such a terrible feeling since he had become an Advocate of Genesis. He bit on the tip of his tongue to sober up, while using all his strength.
Shen Hai dodged at the last moment, but he still couldn’t get out of the way unscathed. The beam had hit his shoulder, which immediately burst into pieces. He almost lost consciousness but the unbearable pain that was like the tide, leaving him and coming back continuously, kept him awake.
She Hai stared at his right shoulder, or whatever remained of it, in disbelief. He could tell that the Grim Reaper was sneering at him. He felt as if his brain had been bashed by something.
‘I’m crippled?’ Although Genesis had obtained technologies beyond modern human civilization, most of those technologies had not been thoroughly studied, so it was impossible to regenerate his whole arm. That meant he would have only one arm in the future.
“Jiang Liushi, I will kill you!” Shen Hai shouted.
Surprisingly, he got a foreboding feeling again. The Grim Reaper’s scythe was still hovering over his head.
Jiang Zhuying electrical net had covered him completely! He suddenly turned back and saw Jiang Zhuying floating behind him. She was staring him indifferently while standing on the wind blade that Xiang Xuehai controlled. Jiang Zhuying was like a god that was about to slaughter the greatest sinner.
“Go to the hell!” shouted Jiang Zhuying to Shen Hai, and she sent her electrically-charged longsword at his heart!
It was impossible for anyone to dodge at such a short distance. However, Shen Hai erupted with power at the last moment. He covered his left arm with a layer of mental energy and tried to grasp the longsword, in an attempt to control it. Unfortunately, the volatile electricity covering the longsword dispelled his power.
Finally, Jiang Zhuying stabbed the longsword into his chest, but as Shen Hai was still struggling to fight back the sword could not penetrate his heart. At that, Jiang Zhuying held the longsword’s chain with all her might, and electric arcs and sparks appeared in the air. Even the atmospheric molecules were ionized and turned into a conductor, so Shen Hai was completely engulfed in a layer of electricity.
Generally speaking, ordinary people that were electrocuted could not shake off the electric object in contact with them, but Shen Hai was an exception as he was strong. With great difficulty, he pushed back the longsword and threw it back to her.
Currently, all of Jiang Zhuying’s energy had been used up. She had overdraft her energy just for the last attack. As a result, she could only look at the flying longsword, unable to struggle. Devoid of electricity, her longsword was filled with Shen Hai’s mental energy, flying fast toward her.
Jiang Zhuying’s pupils were contracted all of a sudden. It was impossible for her to dodge, so she could simply close her arms to block! She did not want to die. She could not bear to leave her brother.
The longsword was approaching dangerously, almost cutting into the arms of Jiang Zhuying. Unexpectedly, at the crucial moment, a fat figure appeared in front of Jiang Zhuying. It was Luoluo!
Seeing the scene, Jiang Zhuying was shocked. Fortunately, Luoluo’s body was invulnerable!
“D*mn!” Shen Hai was frustrated!
“Eh!?” Shen Hai suddenly felt cold in his heart. He suddenly looked around and saw a woman in black standing behind him like a ghost. She waved the dagger in her hand and chopped at his ankle!
Ling also relied on the strong wind made by Xiang Xuehai to fly in the air. Then, she jumped behind Shen Hai! She was totally different from Jiang Zhuying because her abilities were restricted severely in the air. That’s why her attack was just like a cat’s attack. Many small attacks were enough to kill her target. Ling cut his ankle in the blink of an eye. That’s why Shen Hai didn’t have any time to react at all.
This time, Shen Hai was totally annoyed. He stared at Ling and condensed a mental needle. He wanted to turn Ling into a fool by puncturing her brain.
However, before he could attack, a gunshot was heard. Its target? None other than Shen Hai!
The bullet penetrated the spot between Shen Hai’s eyebrows, from which a bloody fog was sprayed out…
