After saying that, Sheyan frowned slightly as he stared into the darkness. Although the platform town was smeared with blood and strangeness, it wasn't enough to attract Sheyan's attention. A stream of blood flowed out of Sheyan's nostrils, slowly trickling down his lips. It looked like a dark wriggling worm in the dark night.
It was an old wound. It was probably caused by the collision between the tentacles of the 'Stairway of the Sun' and the monster's Vascular Spike. Sheyan himself had suffered quite a bit of shock. When Melody saw it, she hurriedly went up to him and gently wiped his wound. Her fingers glowed with a green light as she healed him. Her focused and concerned eyes showed that she treated Sheyan like he was her whole world.
Zi was naturally very unhappy when she saw that, but she just bit her lip and turned her face away. Women who appeared to be strong on the surface were in fact very fragile in many places.
The thing that Sheyan had been worried about did not happen, because Zi was even more afraid of the consequences of revealing the truth than he was. She was afraid that the two of them would never be able to return to the ambiguous state that they were in now. Therefore, Zi would rather be indecisive and occasionally feel jealous than have the courage or the ability to choose to be decisive and cruel.
After Sheyan treated his wound, Zi asked straightforwardly,
"Are we still going to chase after him? If we don't, we won't be able to catch up to him anymore. "
Melody answered seriously.
"This dark monster has a lot of explosive power, but its host body is quite weak. Mr. Jakaya is a patient with advanced lymphoma, which means that the host body can only provide nourishment to the 'Crystal Skull' very rarely. Instead, the 'Crystal Skull' has to maintain the host body more often. So, we don't have to worry that he'll run far away in a short time. "
Sheyan nodded.
"You're right. Why did Jakaya stay at home after killing his family and absorbing their brains? It's because he wants to connect to the 'Black Crystal Skull'! The host body it's controlling is so weak right now. It's like a radio that's about to run out of battery. It has to carefully adjust the frequency band bit by bit to receive the desired signal. "
Reef asked.
"So we'll use him as bait? Let's see what we can catch. "
Sheyan nodded.
"Melody is right. Although this guy was fast when he escaped, he slowed down after putting some distance between us. However, we don't have much time left. We still have to collect historical relics from Asia, Africa, and Europe. So, we can only waste another eight hours. After eight hours, we have to close the net."
***
What followed was a hunt-like chase.
However, it was not clear whether the hunter would become the prey or not.
Three hours later, Jakaya's stooped figure once again appeared in the telescope. Both of Old Charlie's pupils were filled with the image of Freddy's strange laughter. He made a series of sounds from his throat, "Hey, hey, hey!
"That's right. This guy is searching for a signal, a signal from the Black Crystal Skull. His weak body makes it impossible for him to send any more information over. He can only search for the place where the signal from the Black Crystal Skull is strong. It's like a ship struggling in a storm. It has to rely on the faint light from the lighthouse in the distance to survive and determine the direction!"
Sheyan earnestly replied.
"Then can he send a message to the other party?"
"Impossible!" Old Charlie said with certainty. "The only way he can send a message is by committing suicide. As long as he dies, the other party will definitely sense it. It seems that the signal from the Black Crystal Skull is stronger in places with a strong magnetic field, so Jakaya will stop from time to time to find a suitable place to receive the signal. "
Jakaya soon led Party Ace up a hill. Looking down from the top of the hill, they could see the bright lights on the horizon in the distance. That was the largest city in Michigan, the world-famous automobile city, Detroit.
"I didn't expect us to come back here," said Sheyan indifferently.
After arriving, Jakaya got into a taxi and sped away. Party Ace had already anticipated his behavior while he was waiting for a taxi, so they had already used some illegal means to get a car and follow him. Jakaya was already on the way. Party Ace had already predicted his behavior while he was waiting for a taxi, so they had already used some illegal means to obtain a car and followed him.
The taxi driver drove through half of the city and then stopped at a block that looked like a slum. This was a very dangerous place. 80% of the people in Detroit were black people. This was the territory of the black people's gangs.
After Jakaya got out of the taxi, he did not stop, nor did he pay. Instead, he walked forward slowly. Blood vessels that looked like tentacles were slowly retracting from his body. It was obvious that the taxi driver was not picking up a customer this time, but a killer.
"Oh, this guy has lost his value! I know where the Black Crystal Skull is! "Old Charlie suddenly exclaimed." It's in the convertible jeep next door! Yes, it's exposed under the streetlight. "
Everyone followed Old Charlie's finger and looked in that direction! They could see that Jakaya was also walking in that direction. With the eyesight of Awakeners, which was many times better than that of ordinary people, they could see the "Black Crystal Skull" with his back facing them. He had his head buried in headphones, as if he was listening to music. He looked like an ordinary guy, but his exposed skin was sickly pale. But for some reason, when you looked at him, you would feel an indescribable sharpness, as if you were looking at the liquid metal man in Terminator 2.
"It's him!" Sheyan suddenly exclaimed in the party channel. "I was wondering why he felt so familiar! The disc that Loki gave us had footage of this guy's appearance! Yes, this guy is Bind's servant, the idiot who was pierced by the light of Gungnir that Loki threw out! "
Everyone's spirits were lifted when they heard Sheyan's words. Sure enough, the more they looked at it, the more they found it to be the Black Crystal Skull. They did not expect that the Black Crystal Skull they had been searching for for a long time would actually lead them to this place! Wasn't this a case of searching high and low for something only to find it by chance?
"Is Bind nearby?" Zi immediately asked.
Zi was the first to shake her head.
"No, from Loki's description, Bind seems to have the strength to quickly return to the Divine Servant's side. If that's the case, it's meaningless for the two of them to gather together. It's a waste of resources. More importantly, wherever Bind stays, the luck in the vicinity will be absorbed by him. The ordinary people around us don't seem to have run into any bad luck. "
Sheyan's eyes glinted fiercely. He gnashed his teeth in the party channel.
"I don't think we need to talk about what's going to happen next! "That damned Bind has been chasing us all this time. Although he didn't personally kill Mogensha, he's the real culprit behind Mogensha's death. From the information Loki gave us, we can tell that this Divine Servant has something or some secret that's very important to Bind. Then! Today, I'm going to let that son of a bitch have a taste of what it's like to die! "
As soon as the name "Mogensha" was mentioned, everyone felt a burning sensation in their hearts. Reef's voice suddenly became hoarse and vicious.
"Kill!"
Zi did not say anything, but a cold glint flashed on her fingertips. Sanzi remained silent, but Kulutego had already begun to inhale deeply, as if he could not finish inhaling even one breath. The Cyclops' fangs were already faintly visible in his mouth.
The Buick MPV they were driving was like the countless other cars on the street. Sheyan didn't use anything else. He just slightly stepped on the accelerator and the Buick MPV they were driving drove past like countless other cars on the street. Jakaya, on the other hand, was already running over excitedly. Blood vessels were dancing on his fingertips. His lower abdomen once again swelled up like a demon's. He was obviously planning to feed the "essence" he had plundered along the way back to his superior!
However, although the two of them were less than two meters away from each other, these two meters were undoubtedly the end of the world for them!
* Crash! * A huge milky white palm abruptly appeared above Reef's head. It bluntly smashed through the roof of the MPV, traversing a distance of 30 metres in an instant. Then, it viciously grabbed onto Reef and dragged him towards the Buick.
'Divine Hand'!
The Divine Servant's eyes suddenly turned red. It wasn't a blood-red, but a look similar to the Terminator's when it entered a combat-ready state. A large amount of light exploded from the Divine Servant's body, and it looked as if it was going to shatter Reef's' Divine Hand '.
But Reef was not fighting alone. When he made his move, Zi had just finished chanting her long incantation. The darkness around them suddenly formed a huge vortex. Then, strange Sith runes flew out one after another and surrounded the Divine Servant's body. In the end, they formed a huge tentacle that wrapped around him. Then, the black runes exploded one after another. The black smoke that escaped from the explosion was so dense that it almost seemed solid. It went into the Divine Servant's mouth and nose.
Force Barrier, Magic Rune Bind!
The Divine Servant's struggle was instantly cut off. When he was pulled over by Reef's' Divine Hand ', the' Divine Hand 'shattered and covered his body with a layer of light. However, the light was so hot that it sizzled as it burned his skin! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me.
