Chapter 154: Mind-altering alchemy
Su'en imdiately felt familiar when he heard it: "Tommy?"
Then, a voice ca from upstairs again.
"Even if you kill , I won't join your Steam Party!"
"Hey hey hey... I already told you that your father's death has nothing to do with us. If it weren't for the lady saving your ass, you wouldn't be here making a fuss. Don't be ungrateful!"
"Hmph, you're all accomplices! I won't join you!"
"Shut up, you brat. Believe it or not, I'll beat you up."
"I'm not afraid of you!"
"..."
Then, there was a muffled sound, probably because his mouth was covered.
This ti, Su'en heard it clearly and confird that it was Tommy.
"He's not dead yet..."
Thinking of this, Su'en's eyebrows slightly raised.
Last ti at the White Monastery, he was too busy to take care of himself and thought that Tommy had died in the Witch's Dream or during the settlent with the Oliver family.
Didn't expect him to still be alive.
That's fortunate.
Old witch?
Could it be the mafia boss Sabina?
.......
Just as Su'en was discerning this, the tavern suddenly quieted down.
The restless music continued, but the noise gradually disappeared.
Everyone's gaze was once again attracted to the charming woman on the stairs.
Naturally, it was Mrs. Sabina.
This enchanting woman was dressed in a very cool black veil dress today. The semi-transparent light veil split skirt revealed her beautiful legs, perfectly outlining her alluring figure.
The fabric of the clothes was high-quality, like alchemical products. It was called a dress, but it looked more like wisps of black smoke lingering on her snow-white body, perfectly concealing her privacy.
This woman was not stingy in showing off her exquisite figure in front of others. She dared to wear and reveal, wherever she went, she would definitely be the focus of n's attention.
Alluring yet just right, not making people feel wanton, but full of charm.
Su'en looked over, and this woman was never lacking n around her.
This ti, she was accompanied by several well-dressed middle-aged gentlen who seed to be from the five major families of the camp.
As the group descended, there was also a professional with a chanical prosthetic limb modification following them, surprisingly the Steam Party cadre "chanical Tyrannosaurus" Toynbee. This guy was chasing Su'en in the ruins last ti and had his leg cut off. Now he had a new chanical prosthetic limb, which had an obvious color difference.
And beside him, there was a half-sized boy with his mouth taped shut, his face full of anger.
Looking closely, it wasn't Tommy, then who was it?
.......
Su'en raised his eyebrows and guessed that the Steam Party people probably also discovered Tommy's unique talent, so they kept him.
"Old witch? Tsk tsk... Tommy has a sharp tongue."
Su'en looked at Tommy, whose mouth was taped shut, and was not surprised.
Although he was in a sowhat embarrassing situation being locked up, his life was not in danger.
Those guys from the Steam Party didn't seem to want to kill him. Otherwise, they would have already silenced him and gouged out his eyes for offending the mafia boss.
But on second thought, if they weren't enemies, it would be a good choice for Tommy to join the Steam Party.
In the Outer City, the Steam Party was one of the few organizations that could provide a large number of machinery and transcendent knowledge.
When this group of people ca down, the tavern quieted down for a mont.
Almost all the greedy gazes of the n fell on Sabina, and Su'en didn't behave differently. He felt that he shouldn't be discovered while blending in with the crowd. After all, there were people in front, back, left, and right, and he only took a glance through the gaps between people.
But unexpectedly, when Sabina and her group walked down, Tommy, who was still struggling, seed to suddenly notice sothing. When his gaze swept over the crowd in the tavern, he suddenly looked over.
In that instant, Su'en imdiately realized that he had been discovered?
But fortunately, it seed that Tommy also knew that Su'en was a wanted criminal. After a mont of surprise in his gaze, he imdiately realized sothing and quickly averted his eyes.
No one knew that it was just a slight fluctuation of interest, but when Sabina, who was walking at the front, seed to sense sothing, a barely noticeable color flashed in her crystalline eyes.
.......
Watching Sabina and her group leave the tavern, Su'en also stayed a little longer before leaving through the back door of the tavern.
There were stacks of empty bottles in the alley behind the tavern, and a few couples were intimately entangled here.
Su'en pretended to be a custor getting so fresh air and deliberately lingered at the back door for a while.
Although he believed that even if Tommy recognized him, he wouldn't expose him to others, he still felt a sense of unease.
That feeling of being locked on by so ans.
But after carefully sensing it, he didn't find any tracking gazes, and there were no special prompts on his panel.
After observing for a while, he didn't notice anything unusual.
Su'en slipped into the alley and deliberately made a few turns, taking so anti-tracking asures, before returning to the main street.
He didn't go back to the Rose Inn, but instead found another cheap hunter's inn with a lot of people and mixed slls, and rented a single room.
The sound insulation here was not good, and you could hear clear snoring and conversations from the corridor and next door.
But it happened to cover up many traces.
It was already midnight, and Su'en planned to wait here until dawn before leaving the camp.
Excluding all possibilities of being tracked, he felt that he might have been overthinking.
Then, he sat cross-legged on the bed and began to ditate.
Like this, about half an hour passed.
Suddenly, Su'en felt that the surroundings seed to have suddenly quieted down, and he faintly heard a charming female voice whispering in his ear, as if she had cast so kind of spell.
After hearing this murmuring sound from the depths of his consciousness, Su'en, who was ditating, suddenly lost consciousness.
There were no other sounds from outside the corridor, as if the space had distorted and beco unreal.
In the next mont, with a click, the door was opened from the outside.
A red-haired woman gracefully walked into the room.She glanced at the cheap hotel room, her eyebrows furrowed, seemingly disgusted by the dirty environnt.
The person who ca was none other than Sabina, whom she had t at the tavern before.
At this mont, her face was even more charming, but her aura was completely different. She was no longer a delicate woman, but a seductive demon exuding a dangerous aura.
If there were others present, they would probably be shocked. This usually delicate gangster's wife was actually using a second-tier ntal spell!
She walked up to Su'en, who was completely unaware, and a hint of playfulness appeared in her eyes as she muttered to herself, "Let
see what secrets you have in your mind."
Sabina ford the hand seals of a sorcerer with both hands, and her beautiful face suddenly beca eerie. Her pupils turned crimson.
In an instant, she gathered the sorcerer's hand seals and softly chanted, "Mind Alchemy
Daydreaming!"
Just as the alchemy array lit up, her eyes burst with a red light, as if trying to probe the secrets in Su'en's mind.
But as soon as the spell was cast and the ntal connection was established, a wave of intense negative emotions flooded into Sabina's mind, violently assaulting her sanity.
Like being electrocuted, Sabina's face changed drastically, and she quickly interrupted the spell.
"How can he have such strong ntal power?!"
Instead of glimpsing any secrets, she was frightened. Sabina exclaid in her heart, "What kind of monster is hiding inside this guy's body?!"
In that instant, she saw not a person, but a terrifying monster made of emotions.
She peered at him, and it stared back at her!
It was an absolutely terrifying emotion that could instantly drive a normal person insane...
But just as Sabina was lost in thought, the man in front of her suddenly opened his eyes wide, his eyes bloodshot.
She inwardly sensed danger, but it was too late to react!
After a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, his large iron-like hands swiftly grabbed her slender neck.
Without giving her any chance to react, a trendous force pressed the delicate beauty against the wall, followed by a heavy punch to her chest!
A muffled sound of flesh being struck by an iron hamr.
This punch hit her chest solidly, causing Sabina to involuntarily spew out a mouthful of crimson blood.
Before the force of the impact dissipated, it passed through her chest and back, causing the partition wall behind her to collapse, and the two of them crashed into the adjacent room.
The bloodshot Su'en straddled Sabina's delicate body, and a faint blue fla surged out of his fists like raindrops, fiercely bombarding the soft body beneath him.
Caught off guard, Sabina couldn't react in ti, her heart filled with disbelief, "Isn't he just a first-tier puppeteer... How is he so fast?!"
"Thud!"
"Thud!"
"Thud!"
"..."
The muffled sound of fists hitting flesh echoed throughout the entire hotel.
The shadows of fists were continuous, so fast that it seed like the sound of a torrential rain, rging into one.
ntal professionals were powerful, but silently taking soone's life was extrely dangerous once they were in close proximity!
She never expected that her tried and true Mind Alchemy would be defeated today.
In a critical mont, Sabina bit her tongue and sprayed another mouthful of hot blood onto the man's face in front of her.
In an instant, a cool sensation washed over his ntal power.
The blood-red in Su'en's eyes suddenly faded, and his sanity seed to return to his body.
But when he looked at Sabina beneath him, he imdiately understood what had happened. However, instead of stopping his attack, he swiftly drew the pistol from his waist and pressed it against her forehead, decisively pulling the trigger.
But in this mont of stagnation, Sabina finally got a chance to catch her breath. The dark spiritual power surging within her quickly condensed, and she finally managed to cast her spell.
However, ntal techniques had limited effects, and she had no intention of entangling further.
"Bang!"
At the mont the gunshot sounded, the delicate body beneath Su'en exploded into a burst of scattered pink petals, disappearing completely in an instant.
"She escaped?"
Su'en looked at Sabina's body, which had turned into petals and disappeared, his eyes filled with seriousness.
The appearance of his alter ego did not an that he had lost consciousness; it was just that his rationality was no longer in control, replaced by those dangerous emotions.
He was well aware of everything that had just happened.
The woman had used a ntal spell to control him, then got beaten up, and used a "sobering spell" to restore him.
At this mont, the tenant in the room, who had been expressionless, also regained consciousness. He looked at the shattered walls and the sudden appearance of another person in the room, his face full of confusion. It was as if he had just woken up from a drunken stupor and had no idea what had just happened.
...Su'en didn't dare to linger in the inn. By the ti the other tenants were just waking up from their dreams, he had already swiftly left the inn.
As he walked, he was replaying the recent battle in his mind.
"Talent B-005-Succubus... Sabina is actually a high-level psychic professional! With her mind-altering alchemy that can invade people's consciousness, no secret can be hidden from her. She must have known about Tommy's ability, hypnotized him just now, and then discovered ?"
All the clues connected, and Su'en deduced the reason why this woman had co to him.
At this mont, he suddenly thought of sothing, and his face slightly changed: "Could it be that she is the 'Sleepwalker', the major general level intelligence officer in the Umbrella Organization?"
Thinking back to the woman's ability to play both sides among the major powers, Su'en felt that this guess might be true.
He didn't know before that this woman was a rare psychic professional, but now it all matched the description given by Number Nineteen!
The boss of the Steam Party's woman is actually a high-level professional and a high-ranking intelligence officer of the Umbrella Organization?
Ha... With this psychic manipulation ability, this woman must have played many people into the palm of her hand.
"But how did that woman track
down before?"
Unable to figure this out, Su'en didn't want to stay in the city any longer. Without waiting for the city guards to react, he went straight to the city wall of the camp.
He had originally planned to leave at dawn, but it seed that he couldn't stay in the camp now.
He had observed during the day that there was an early warning system here, but the defense was weak.
Once his armor was removed, he used his Octopus Spear to climb up the wall.
In an instant, the alarm sounded loudly.
However, he was trying to escape now, and he wasn't afraid of being discovered.
After climbing over the wall, he exchanged a few shots with the city wall guards, and then easily escaped.
With his current physical condition, even a second-order professional would find it difficult to catch him...
