Chapter 126 125. The terrifying power of puppets
After Phillip left, Su Hong was the only one left walking alone in the vast snow.
Without Philip to help monitor the Dawn Cultists, he didn't know when this group would catch up with him, so he could only prepare for the worst.
Su Hong glanced at the flat snow. There was no place to cover his body. If he encountered the Dawn Cultists, there wouldn't even be any room for maneuver.
"I can't go to the location of the Fire Refuge, but if I want to wait for reinforcements, I can't leave Qinghai City too far."
He sped up and flew straight towards Qinghai City. Melanie, who was following him behind him, thought he was going to escape to the Fire Shelter and sneered.
"Are you scared?"
"Go after him."
The sled stirred up snow waves on the snow, turned around, and rushed straight towards Su Hong.
Melanie knew that their plan had been exposed, but as long as they caught Su Hong, they could still get the location information of the shelter.
…
Ten minutes later, Su Hong arrived in Qinghai City. What came into his sight was an abandoned suburban community, as well as a shopping mall and a subway station.
The enemy is in the dark and he is in the light. There is no use hiding now unless he can find a way to shield the Amber Eye.
"The surveillance of the Amber Eyes seems to be realized through the vision of the eyes, which can be seen from the fact that Melanie can't hear my voice."
"Assuming that she is monitoring everything I see, can I get rid of her surveillance by blocking my vision and not using my eyes to observe the environment?"
Su Hong's heart moved, and he tried to close his eyes.
In order to prevent Melanie from having other means of surveillance, he also wrapped himself in shadow.
The world is completely filled with darkness.
As for how to walk without vision.
This is quite simple. Shadows are spread all around. Once he encounters an obstacle, his perception will be transmitted back to his mind, forming a vague outline of the world in his mind.
He just needs to get around the obstacles in time.
Although it is much more troublesome than looking directly with eyes, once you get used to it, this way of observing the world with shadows is even more useful. Even the blind spot behind him can be observed.
However, the flaw is that he cannot observe the world outside the shadows. If he flies in the strong wind rashly, he may not be able to react because he is too fast, and he may fall headlong into the outer wall of the building.
In the dark world, Su Hong continued to move forward. He planned to find a hidden building to hide in and delay the Dawn cultists for a while.
If that doesn't work, he can still launch an attack on the Dawn cultists.
Melanie was sitting on the sled on the snow only five or six kilometers away from him. Her originally bright amber eyes were now only black, and Su Hong was missing.
The woman's eyes returned to normal color and she gave up monitoring Su Hong. She knew that there was no point in continuing to monitor Su Hong.
This guy has found a way to restrain the Amber Eyes.
She narrowed her eyes slightly, with a dangerous edge flashing in her eyes, "Do you think that by escaping from the surveillance of the Amber Eyes, you can escape from the palm of my hand?"
"Too naive."
As soon as she finished speaking, a giant eagle soared into the sky riding the storm and flew towards Qinghai City.
A few minutes later, the Shuguang cultists entered the outskirts of Qinghai City and stopped at Su Hong's original location.
"Search, don't miss any corner."
The Dawn cultists shouted and searched around.
Su Hong was hiding in the utility room of the mall at this time. The shadows under his feet spread out to the outside of the mall, hiding in a hidden corner of the city.
Once a Dawn cultist passes by, his shadow perception will be triggered, and he will be able to control the general location of different minions.
"It's a pity that the soul ring failed to fuse and has been destroyed."
Otherwise, he can still use the shadow creation created by the soul ring to attract the attention of Dawn cultists. "I don't have a soul ring, but I just got a useful new ability."
The new ability he was referring to was the Shadow Puppet.
In the community farthest from the shopping mall, a Dawn cultist with average strength climbed the stairs and explored upstairs. Little did he know that in the dark corner, Su Hong's shadow tentacles were waiting for him.
"You keep searching, I'll go up and take a look."
The Dawn cultist who looked like a middle-aged man said something to the cultist downstairs, then climbed up the stairs and passed by the corner where the shadow tentacles were hiding.
Before he could react, the shadow tentacle flashed past and cut directly into the back of his head, turning the brain tissue inside into a paste.
The man died suddenly and his body was about to fall down the stairs, but all the surrounding shadows suddenly poured into his body and repaired the wound.
Su Hong's consciousness entered this body, and he grabbed the frozen armrest to stop his fall.
"Is this the ability of the shadow puppet? It's really amazing."
He moved his body without feeling any discomfort, and he even felt the power of disaster flowing through his body.
Su Hong's mind moved, and the dark thorn pattern on his arm came to life, turning into two sharp blades wrapped around his hand.
"Thorn of Thorns, is this your ability?"
"Dawei, is there any movement up there?" After searching the first floor, the Shuguang cultists poked their heads out of the stairs.
"It seems there is. Come up and take a look."
"Dawei" looked nervous, as if he had really discovered something.
The Shuguang cultist looked shocked and hurriedly climbed up, "Here he comes."
As soon as he came to "Dawei", before he could continue to ask about the situation, he suddenly felt a pain in his chest. When he lowered his head, he saw that a thorn of thorns had penetrated his chest.
"Dawei, why?"
The Dawn cultists looked in disbelief.
Su Hong said coldly: "Sorry, I'm a spy."
He killed the Dawn cultist and pushed him away, then went down the stairs to find new prey.
On the street, the image of Dawn cultists killing each other flashed across Melanie's eyes, and her face instantly turned gloomy.
After she sent Dawei's image to all Dawn cultists, everyone was shocked and then became furious.
"Kill him."
"Those who rebel against God will not be forgiven."
For a time, all the Dawn believers gathered in the direction of the community.
Of course, Su Hong also knew the movements of the Dawn Cultists, and it was impossible for his current body to withstand their siege.
He used shadows to fix Dawei's body, making him look like he was calmly waiting for other Dawn cultists to come over.
Su Hong's consciousness took the opportunity to escape, and his eyes turned to the next puppet body.
In the community square, dozens of Shuguang believers gathered together. Their goal was to calm down Dawei, who was standing in the square.
"Kill him!"
The Dawn cultists rushed forward, unaware that a shadow had quietly fallen behind them.
Shadow spikes shot out from the ground quickly and penetrated the head of a Dawn cultist.
Before the people around him could react, shadows poured into this body. Su Hong used the disaster ability left by this body to transform into a giant bear and smashed an unsuspecting Dawn cultist into a pulp.
