Chapter 472: Chapter 338 Another Stand-In_2 Chapter 472: Chapter 338 Another Stand-In_2 He also felt his body vibrating in the sa way, and it might have produced a similar double image.
The [Evil Spirit Solid Lock] this ti was clearly different from the previous attempts.
On one hand, it was because it was deployed in a dream, and on the other hand, it was related to the special nature of this “shadow” strangeness.
The mont his palm made contact with the other’s shoulder and resonance occurred, Yan Junze saw the figure vibrate along with his own arm and then, as if by a sucking force, drag this “shadow” strangeness towards himself bit by bit, until it finally rged completely into his body.
In the last mont of the rger, Yan Junze opened his palms in astonishnt, looked down, and noticed that including his palms, his entire body was still trembling rapidly, producing double images.
He maintained this posture, looked up in surprise at the Lantern Woman, and realized she was also looking at him, her expression one of shock.
At that mont, Yan Junze’s vision suddenly began to blur until it turned entirely grey and white, and he could see nothing at all.
His eyes opened, and he found himself forever the sa, lying on those chairs pieced together, half of the bedding opened, covering only below his belly, both arms stretched out, with his left arm being held by Xiang Er standing beside him.
Xiang Er looked at him with concern, her hand gripping gently as if she had just noticed sothing wrong with Yan Junze in his sleep, ready to wake him up at any mont.
Yan Junze shook his head, “It’s alright now.”
Xiang Er let go of his hand, stepped back and still looked at him with concern, “You were talking in your dreams just now, and you seed a bit agitated.”
“What did I say?” Yan Junze asked.
Xiang Er shook her head, “The voice was very fuzzy, I couldn’t hear clearly. Well, what’s the situation now, has it been resolved?”
Yan Junze sat up, glanced towards the window, and saw that it was already dawn outside.
He threw off the blankets and said to Xiang Er, “Not only was it resolved, but there were also unexpected gains.”
“What gains?” Xiang Er asked curiously.
“There are two gains,” Yan Junze explained, “The first is that the Lantern Woman has probably co to terms with , but it needs to be observed for a longer period. The second gain is the lockdown of another strangeness lurking in the dream.”
“There’s more strangeness?” Xiang Er asked in surprise, “Who is it?”
Yan Junze smiled mysteriously, his consciousness entering the Spaceti Atlas in his mind, but imdiately he was taken aback.
He found that in the 12th node of the Atlas, there was no trace of the “shadow” strangeness he had just locked down.
Thinking back carefully, after the lockdown of the “shadow” strangeness, there seed to be no prompt about the closeness level with the strangeness either, everything was so different.
Was it because of the lockdown in the dream? Or was it sothing about this strangeness itself?
After a slight hesitation, a speculation surfaced, and Yan Junze stood up, saying, “Step back a bit, if you see this strangeness later on, don’t take action, because he is already following .”
Xiang Er nodded and stepped back as told.
Yan Junze silently called for the “shadow” strangeness in his mind. In fact, he had never seen its actual face; all he could think of was his own back.
Facing Xiang Er, Yan Junze turned around and after approximately five seconds, he turned back and took a few steps toward Xiang Er.
During this process, he kept ntally calling for the “shadow” strangeness to appear.
After a few steps, he stood still and looked at Xiang Er.
Xiang Er’s eyes were fixed behind him, her facial expression gradually changing from calm to surprise, her eyes widening more and more.
It had appeared—the “shadow” had already appeared.
Yan Junze imdiately turned around and sure enough, an individual identical to his own shadow was standing where he had just turned around, nonchalant and motionless. Whether it was the clothes or the posture, everything was an exact match.
“Well, let introduce my new underling—’Shadow,'” Yan Junze said to Xiang Er with a smile.
“What’s he for?” Xiang Er couldn’t help but ask.
Yan Junze shrugged, “The ‘Shadow’ was initially looking for a substitute, but then I gave it a good beating and it hid in the dreams. Now it seems, it probably won’t ever turn around for the rest of its life. As of now, it is my exclusive substitute.”
Xiang Er blinked, still showing extre curiosity, “What can he do?”
“I feel like the features are pretty versatile,” Yan Junze mused, “like taking the bla in critical monts, acting as a scapegoat, diverting attention, and so on.”
“Won’t it be wiped out?” Xiang Er asked.
Then she found that Yan Junze was once again turning his back to her while explaining, “I need to experint a few more tis to discover the special aspects of this ‘shadow’.”
Five seconds after turning his back on Xiang Er, he turned around and took a few steps.
Xiang Er’s expression beca surprised once again.
Yan Junze turned to look back and saw the second ‘shadow’ of himself ca into being, with the exact sa posture, indistinguishable from a ghost or a deity.
Xiang Er’s curiosity had now peaked. She walked briskly past the ‘shadow,’ standing where it had been, and looked at its front side, her expression puzzled.
“Junze, it has a back on both sides, no front.”
Yan Junze also walked over quickly to take a look. Indeed, whether you looked at the figure from the front or the back, you would only see his own back, with no face visible.
The most important part was that the ‘shadow’ strangeness never spoke from beginning to end, nor showed any sign of wanting to communicate.
At that mont, both of them noticed that the first ‘shadow’ that appeared began to gradually fade until it completely vanished, while the second ‘shadow’ lingered.
“Can it move?”
As soon as Xiang Er uttered her question, she saw the ‘shadow’ suddenly start moving, heading towards the private room door and vanishing straight through the closed door.
Yan Junze smiled. He had just wondered if conjuring a ‘shadow’ would remain motionless and the counterpart imdiately left the room according to his thought, even using a wall-penetration technique.
Suddenly, Yan Junze’s gaze focused, and another scene appeared in his field of vision.
It was the scene outside the private room corridor, clearly displayed before his eyes. He could be sure that this was the viewpoint of the ‘shadow.’
Just like the abilities unlocked with the Semi-Spirit Body, he now also had the ability to share the viewpoint with a strangeness.
Only, the current shared viewpoint ability seed even more practical.
Yan Junze did not know how long the ‘shadow”s existence would last, he simply watched everything outside through its viewpoint, as though he was seeing it with his own eyes.
Then he saw Huang Chen treading carefully upstairs, seemingly very nervous, looking around as he climbed, and imdiately noticed the ‘shadow.’
“Junze, are you up? How did it go?” Huang Chen’s eyes lit up as he asked.
The ‘shadow’ imdiately turned and returned to the room where Yan Junze was, as if reversing into him, it rged with his body and disappeared.
Huang Chen arrived at the door of the private room, staring at the door in bewildernt. He felt that when Yan Junze ca in, he had not opened the door.
However, standing at the corridor stairway entrance, his line of sight wasn’t great, and perhaps he hadn’t seen clearly.
He pushed the door open and saw Yan Junze just as he was picking up the beddings. Seeing Huang Chen co in, he asked in surprise, “How did you co up here?”
“I didn’t hear any noise from you all night, and I couldn’t rest easy, so I had to co up and check,” Huang Chen forced a smile as he explained quickly.
“It’s fine,” Yan Junze shook his head, “the strangeness in those photos has been dealt with.”
Huang Chen nodded, “I knew it was resolved. When it was almost dawn, soone noticed that the person turning their head in the photos suddenly went back to normal. We checked, and all the photos had been restored. I thought you would co down right away, but after waiting so long, I got worried and ca up to see you.”
“Well, I was a bit tired, so I slept a while longer,” Yan Junze said.
“Didn’t I just see you go out?” Huang Chen pointed towards the door, puzzled.
“I forgot my bedding and ca back, but I didn’t hear you calling ,” Yan Junze fabricated on the spot, then said to Huang Chen, “Let’s go, the strangeness has been eradicated, and this matter… is finished.”
