Thanks to the strict training he received from the Bi Dike family since he was a child, as well as the effects of Ilmi's telekinesis suppression, Qi Yan was very sensitive to danger.
Therefore, when the manifestation of desire stopped, Qi Yan did not continue to test it. Instead, he retreated a distance away from it as if it was a conditioned reflex.
His body moved faster than his mind.
"What happened?"
Qi Yan looked in the direction of the port town, ignoring the manifestation of desire that was deterred by his telekinesis.
The forest here was less than two kilometers away from the edge of the town. Although the surrounding trees were not very dense, they were enough to block the view of the town. Just looking in the direction of the town would not give him any useful information.
In contrast, in this short period of time brought by this inexplicable change, Qi Yan had to make his next choice as soon as possible.
He had to take the unknown risk and seize the opportunity to pry out a lot of valuable information from the manifestation of desire. Or he could simply give up and wait for the next opportunity.
Qi Yan quickly chose the former.
Right now, he did not have Ilmi's telekinesis needles in his head, and [Seraphic Speed] gave him enough confidence.
After blocking the dangerous aura from the direction of the town, Qi Yan controlled the telekinesis that was released from his orifices. He used the [Sturdy] skill to make his telekinesis turn into a thick layer of armor that covered his body.
Without using the Transmutation skill, he only used the normal [Sturdy] skill. In terms of strength, it was definitely not as strong as the normal [Train] skill.
However, at the same time that Qi Yan switched from [Strength] to [Sturdy], the object of desire was no longer afraid and rushed towards Qi Yan again.
Qi Yan did not expect this at all, but the safe distance he maintained gave him enough time to react. Moreover, he realized that the manifestation of desire was about to make its move.
"Chi!"
Qi Yan immediately stopped controlling his telekinesis. The steady and orderly [Sturdy] skill suddenly turned into [Train], causing his telekinesis to expand outward again in a torrent-like form.
Seeing that Kiki was once again enveloped by a mass of telekinesis, the manifestation of the puppet's desire suddenly froze in mid-air.
In terms of strength, [Train] was definitely not as strong as [Sturdy], but the manifestation of desire was not afraid of [Sturdy]. Instead, it was deterred by [Train].
What did this mean?
A faint light flashed across Qi Lan's eyes.
Obviously, the manifestation of desire only had the ability to judge, especially on the surface. In other words, they would be afraid of the quantity of psychokinesis, but they would not be able to judge the quality of the psychokinesis.
After grasping this train of thought, Qi Hun did not hesitate to rush toward the puppet that had stopped in its tracks.
He still didn't use [Seraphic Speed]. He just opened his pores and let his psychokinesis flow as much as possible.
Seeing Kiki, who was shrouded in a mass of telekinesis, rushing towards it, the manifestation of desire changed its previous ferocity and turned tail to run.
However, in terms of speed, even if Qi Yan didn't use [Godly Speed], he could still toy with it.
In just an instant, Strange Earthworm flashed in front of the object of desire. At the same time, Strange Earthworm switched from [Strength] to [Sturdy].
This seemingly suicidal behavior directly caused the fleeing manifestation of desire to change its mode of action. Like an NPC whose action logic had been set, it gave up on escaping and turned to attack Oddity.
"It's about time..."
Looking at the black hands of the manifestation of desire, Strange Earthworm did not act rashly. Instead, he cautiously retreated, sliding back a distance on the ground to avoid the attack. At the same time, he grabbed a handful of sand from the ground.
After stopping the momentum of retreating, Strange Earthworm raised his hand and threw the sand at the manifestation of desire. Although he did not cover the sand with his psychokinesis, with the strength of his hand, he could still clearly hear the sound of the sand breaking through the air.
The scattered sand bombarded the upper body of the manifestation of desire like a shotgun bullet, instantly blasting dozens of small holes the size of fingernails.
However, in less than a second, the small holes that had been blasted open were restored to their original state.
"Although its defense is weak, ordinary attacks will not work."
Strange Earthworm grabbed another handful of sand, covered it with his psychokinesis, and threw it again. The upper body of the manifestation of desire was blasted into a broken state, and there was no sign of it recovering.
"Sure enough, the manifestation of desire's weakness is psychokinesis, and its defense is really weak. Any psychokinesis user can easily destroy it."
After confirming this, Strange Earthworm turned the psychokinesis on his hands into a crackling electric light.
Whoosh!
His body turned into an electric arc, crushing the remaining half of the manifestation of desire into a scattered mist, and then slowly disappeared in the air.
After dealing with the manifestation of desire, which was no threat at all, Strange Earthworm withdrew his psychokinesis.
Suddenly, he heard a soft sound. He turned around to look at the source of the sound and saw a small black object on the ground.
Strange Earthworm gathered his Qi in his eyes and could see that there was a thin layer of psychokinesis on the small black thing that looked like a stone.
"What is this?"
Strange Earthworm wrapped his psychokinesis in his palm and then picked up the small black thing. It was about the size of a fingernail and very rough to the touch, like an ordinary stone.
After repeatedly pinching it a few times and confirming that the stone was not dangerous, Strange Earthworm put it away.
"The information collection is almost done, but the town..."
Strange Earthworm looked in the direction of the town, paused, and decided to take a look.
As soon as he took a step, he abruptly withdrew his hand.
Accompanied by the sound of something breaking through the air, a round-headed needle fell diagonally from above and stuck half a meter in front of his feet.
Strange Earthworm reflexively opened his orifice, but when he saw the needle, he couldn't help but be startled, and his eyes flashed with surprise.
At the same time, a familiar voice came from above at two o'clock. "Don't go."
Strange Earthworm looked up and saw Ilmi in a tight suit and Cotter in a kimono standing side by side on a tree.
He didn't even notice them...
Perhaps because Strange Earthworm's attention was focused on the manifestation of desire, or because Ilmi and Cotter didn't reveal their aura and hostility, Strange Earthworm didn't notice their existence.
"Why are you here?"
Strange Earthworm frowned and then glanced at Cotter, who was holding a folding fan and covering half of his face. He knew that Cotter used his psychokinesis to search and brought Ilmi here, and the target was obviously him.
"Father asked us to take you back. Besides, the town is very dangerous now, so you should stay as far away as possible." Ilmi raised his index finger slightly and the needle flew back to his finger.
"I don't want to go back."
Strange Earthworm simply refused, leaving no room for negotiation. At the same time, he wondered what happened in the town. Why did Ilmi say it was very dangerous? Did they come from the direction of the town and see something?
But before that dangerous aura came, the situation in the town was peaceful, right? Did something happen?
Ilmi's eyes narrowed slightly as he smiled, "That's an expected answer. Although I would like to use some forceful methods, but …"
Ilmi looked in the direction of the port town.
"Given the current situation, we should leave here temporarily, otherwise... the consequences will be very serious."
