Chapter 898 - I Have Strength of Character! (1/2)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Wang Baole just flicked his body and had only taken a few steps when the paper human cutout on the sampan suddenly raised its left hand. A dim halo suddenly spread, and the moment it appeared… Wang Baole’s body instantly paused. Afterward, his expression changed immensely, because he discovered that his body… couldn’t be controlled!
He seemed to be completely controlled by a strange power. It actually controlled him to turn around and walk step by step expressionlessly… towards the sampan!
What’s going on! Wang Baole was horrified in his heart and wanted to resist and struggle, but it was of no use. He could only watch as he walked step by step towards the ethereal spirit boat like a puppet!
This scene was extremely weird!
In the cosmos, an ethereal spirit-like sampan dispersed a sense of ancientness. At its front, a devilish paper human cutout waved expressionlessly. At the back of the boat, near the cabin, the more than thirty teenage males and females couldn’t hide the weirdness in their expressions as they all looked towards Wang Baole, who was walking step by step like a puppet towards the sampan.
But in reality, the fact that Wang Baole rejected many times previously and had fear in his eyes despite the fact that he was walking step by step towards the sampan immediately allowed them to guess the answer.
“Someone’s forcefully controlling Xie Dalu’s body?”
“Could it be that the ferryman will forcefully control you after you refuse to board the Fallen Star Boat a certain number of times?”
“I’ve never heard of that before…”
Everyone felt weird as they watched Wang Baole get closer and closer to the sampan. The fear in his eyes also grew more and more intense. Wang Baole almost cried as he wailed and trembled.
What is this, I don’t want to board the ship. This is way too overbearing!
Wang Baole rejected the idea of boarding the sampan. Even when the sampan appeared again and again, he rejected it. But this time… things changed to a point beyond what he could control. He lost control of his body and could only watch as the strange power controlled his body to leap after nearing the sampan and landed him… on the sampan.
However, different from the cabin where everyone else was, Wang Baole’s body was controlled to land at the front of the sampan. And at that moment, huge waves of shock had already crashed in his heart.
It’s bad enough that you forced me to board. Why is my position different from everyone else’s! Wang Baole felt bitter in his heart. But until now, he still couldn’t control his body. When he stood at the front of the sampan, he couldn’t even turn his head. He could only use his peripheral vision to see that the expressions of the teenage males and females in the cabin became even weirder.
Obviously, it was the same as what he thought. Those people were also curious about why Wang Baole wasn’t at the cabin after he boarded, being at the front of the sampan instead…
But after that, after the paper human cutout at the front of the sampan did an action, although the answer was revealed, Wang Baole’s soul trembled violently and was filled with resentment and indignance that exploded forth in his heart. As for the rest… their eyes almost dropped out. There were even three or so who were unable to stay calm as they stood up from their cross-legged positions. Their faces were filled with disbelief, and it was obvious that violent storms were crashing onto their souls.
“What’s going on! Capturing coolies?”
“Why… why… why is this happening!”
“Is the envoy tired?”
