Chapter 293: Illusion

The tattered suit had been ripped off by Luo Yuan to reveal the turtle-egg synthetic bulletproof vest underneath it. He went to the door and pressed the button of the iron gate. When the iron gate slowly rose, his face began to look intense and his hand slowly gravitated to the hilt of his Zhanmadao. No matter how perfect the camouflage was, there were still slight differences in skin color, eyes, facial expressions, as well as some of the common habits and gestures. Any familiar person would be able to differentiate it very easily.

Fortunately, Luo Yuan worries were unjustified as the soldiers guarding the door glanced at him, offered a salute, and then looked down again. Luo Yuan nodded slightly, then walked away with an expressionless face. When he passed by the mayor's office, he looked inside and noticed that Mayor Song had gone out. However, there was a beautiful and sexy woman sitting in front of the mayor's desk! Her perfectly shaped brows kept frowning as she flipped through the files in the office.

”Is this his new secretary?” He was a bit puzzled as he continued to stare at her flawless beauty. Suddenly, the lady looked up! Luo Yuan hurriedly paced away from the place to avoid being noticed.

Luo Yuan knew that these group of wanderers still had accomplices with them. There must be at least one mind controller among them. Nonetheless, Luo Yuan’s condition was very bad at this point and his body was unable to support him to continue fighting.

Moreover, the worst thing was not his body but his brain. His brain was in all kinds of pain and he has yet to see a single sign of recovery. He even started seeing illusions. For example, he could see colorful scales in front of his eyes!

The scales were very strange and he could not describe them. A large amount of information flooded through his brain till his mind almost crashed. If a battle happened now, the consequence would undoubtedly be bad for him. Fortunately, these illusions appeared and disappeared in quick intervals of less than 0.1 seconds.

Oddly enough, Luo Yuan could not seem to remember any of it. He only remembers having illusions but could not tell what they were about specifically. What color, what shape or what size.

Before this, he had a premonition that the use of spiritual attacks would have its fair share of consequences but he never knew that it would be so serious. Luo Yuan's heart was racing rapidly just thinking about the situation while he continued walking.

Along the way, people gave him a respectful nod and moved to the side to let him pass. Some of them secretly looked at Luo Yuan curiously but no issues surfaced. Once he could get outside, the chances of being recognized was low. He hid his identity by wearing Su Yu’s clothing so the journey was unimpeded.

When he came near to the sewer’s maintenance room, Luo Yuan quickly morphed back to his original look. He quickly did this when the soldiers on guard were not looking. Surprisingly, the door was left unlocked. He pushed the door open, walked inside and closed it. The whole process was done in 0.5 seconds. There were hardly any other movements aside from some dust being scattered around.

…

”How is the situation outside? Have you found out who it is?” Xu Zhiqiang asked immediately when he saw Luo Yuan.

”Mr. Luo, are they searching for us?” Xiao Baihong also asked.

Wen Yujie was relatively cautious and noticed Luo Yuan had taken off his jacket. She asked worriedly, ”Were you involved in a fight? Are you injured?”

”The problem is half solved,” Luo Yuan said while enduring the pain he felt. ”I killed their leader but did not meet the mind controller. We can only wait for the next opportunity!”

Xu Zhiqiang was left with his jaws opened as he gave Luo Yuan a stunned look and thought in his heart, ”Before this, you said you’d try to scout for some information … but now you have already solved more than half of the problem. Don't tell us that everything was just easy, ok!?”

But this was only in his mind. Instead of saying this, he dryly said, ”So, the mastermind has been take care of. Now we are left with the mind controller and a few unimportant people.”

Luo Yuan rubbed his eyebrows and said, ”That’s almost right.”

”Mr. Luo...” Xu Zhiqiang wanted to ask further but was interrupted angrily by Wen Yujie, ”Don’t ask anymore. Have you all not noticed that Luo Yuan is not feeling well?”

Only now did everyone realize that Luo Yuan’s face was pale as a sheet and his forehead was covered with cold sweat. They quickly kept quiet without saying a word.

Luo Yuan closed his eyes and leaned against the wall for a while to rest. He then opened his eyes and spoke, ”Zhang Wu, I have a question to ask you.”

”What’s up, Mr. Luo? You can just ask!” Zhang Wu said quickly. The hierarchy of evolutionary beings was now strictly guarded. It was a must to maintain the necessary respect when talking to a stronger person.

”With all due respect, I would like to know about your third eye. What exactly are its capabilities?” Luo Yuan asked. He saw Zhang Wu glance around covertly. He waved his hand to signal Luo Yuan and said, ”Can all of you go out for a while?”
