Chapter 190 Thoughts and Sorting Out
After reaching a verbal agreement, Bourne asked Emily to go upstairs to keep Phoenix company. Since they were going to the library anyway, it would not be appropriate for Emily to follow Samantha, a female killer who was being hunted. It would be safer for her to follow Norman and the others. After all, Hernandez was good at taking care of children, and Phoenix was of the same age as Emily, so they would definitely get along well.
As for Samantha, Bourne could give her a ride, but her flashy red Porsche 944 was too ostentatious, so it would be better for her to leave it in the basement garage for the time being.
Half an hour later, Bourne finally successfully sent Samantha back home, an ordinary old-style apartment.
For safety reasons, Bourne took Samantha for a ride on the street twice to make sure that no one was following them and that no one was waiting downstairs of the apartment building before letting Samantha get out of the car.
During this period, Bourne and Samantha did not communicate at all. They were both thinking about their own things and secretly observing each other. The atmosphere was quite harmonious, so harmonious that when they separated, they both felt regretful and unfulfilled.
Indeed, Bourne had no experience dealing with female killers, and didn't know if they were any different from his ex-girlfriends.
The only time Bourne had dealings with the female killer Georgia was when Zack was injured. Bourne spared her, and she also reported important information, indirectly saving Captain Norton and his crew, so they were even.
Somehow, Bourne felt that he had a connection with female killers. He had a good impression of both Samantha, whom he met this time, and Georgia, whom he met last time. What an illusion!
Just like that, I was driving my Polo on the road to the Warrens' house, daydreaming about all sorts of things.
There were no unexpected incidents during this period, which made Bourne feel a little relaxed and able to think about serious matters.
Thinking back on everything that happened tonight, Bourne still felt like he was in a dream.
How long has it been since you indulged yourself like this?
I'm afraid that ever since I traveled through time, I've been trembling with fear and treading on thin ice.
Because he was always labeled as a "crosser from another world", he was being closely watched by the Heavenly Dao of this side. Just like being released on bail pending trial, or being released on bail for medical treatment. Although he could move freely, he still had to bear the debt of Heavenly Dao points and had to work for Heavenly Dao.
But all this changed after the fall of the White House.
The Heavenly Dao value on the system panel disappeared!
The vague feeling of being out of place in this world is gone.
Bourne felt that even the air had become fresher.
Similarly, the system panel has also changed greatly. In addition to those specific values, talents and skills are no longer text, but exist in a concrete form in the mind.
For example, the scene that appeared in Bourne's mind right now was that in the boundless void, a huge Tai Chi Yin Yang fish diagram was slowly rotating in the air, and below it was a boundless sea of blood and piles of bones that appeared and disappeared in the sea of blood. Between the Tai Chi diagram and the sea of blood, there were five colors of light, blue, red, yellow, white and black, which kept flowing.
One advantage of this concrete system is that it allows Bourne's body to exhibit various characteristics according to his wishes.
For example, during the month when he was isolated for investigation, countless medical devices were used on him. But except for the beginning, when Bourne was not proficient in the specific functions of the system and his affinity with water and darkness was exposed, in every subsequent test, Bourne could make the instrument only detect the affinity with fire and light.
Of course, the data from the first few tests were discarded by the experimenters as instrument errors. Otherwise, it would be difficult for Bourne to explain why he had the affinity for multiple conflicting elements that ordinary people could hardly have.
I can't tell others that I'm possessed by the heavenly way of another dimension!
Bourne had a vague guess in his mind about the images visualized by the system. Could it be that these fragments of Heaven's Dust wanted to reopen the heaven and earth and recreate the world in his mind?
Because the Tai Chi diagram clearly represents the Three Pure Ones, the sea of blood represents the Nine Netherworlds, and the Five Elements represent the earth, water, wind, fire and the human world. This is exactly the same as in the previous life when Pangu created the world, the clear air rose and the turbid air fell, and chaos existed in the middle.
Moreover, the exclusive skill "Door of All Wonders" has the characteristics of absorbing the essence of others and giving back to them. It is in line with the Jiejiao's struggle to "cut off a ray of heaven's secrets" and the Chanjiao's meaning of giving back to them by "following the will of heaven".
As for the sea of blood below, it can be seen from the concrete scene that most of the sea of blood is just an illusion, and the only solid part is the small puddle at the bottom.
Bourne guessed that this was obtained by absorbing the ritual, but it was a bit strange. Even if the ritual was absorbed, there were only a few people, only a dozen at most. How could a small pool of blood be formed?
What he didn't know was that in addition to the fact that several of the corpses used in the blood sacrifice ritual were extremely powerful, the ritual itself had also been connected to an alien space, which was a secret realm. The blood that Bourne absorbed was not only the ritual itself, but also attracted a portion of the blood energy that had been stored in that secret realm for many years.
Otherwise, the blood of a few old bones from the Dharma Ending Age would not be enough to make Bourne's system appear concrete.
Of course, most of these are Bourne's guesses. The previous text system still exists, but there is an additional concrete image that allows Bourne to more vividly feel the conditions of various elements in his body. Apart from that, it is no different from before.
Before he knew it, Bourne had arrived near his destination.
This is a remote town in the western suburbs of Detroit. For some unknown reason, this town looks particularly desolate, dilapidated and unpopular.
In this huge town, only a few houses have porch lights on, and the rest are all dark. Even the street lights are only on on one main road, and the light is very dim.
"To shoot a horror movie here, there's no need for a set! The Warrens are really generous to build a home that houses so many 'evil creatures' here!"
Bourne parked the car in front of a three-story villa on the main road of the town.
This is a house that has been built for some time, and its architectural style is very much like that of the 1950s and 1960s, but the house is in good condition overall. Except for the tall weeds on the lawn outside, which shows that the owner does not take care of it often, the paths, porches, and even the eaves of the house are all clean, as if someone cleans and maintains them regularly.
What a contradictory and weird performance.
Bourne shook his head, not caring.
Even though he seems restrained and like an ordinary person now, in fact all the energy is contained in that concrete picture. Whether it is the light and darkness in the Tai Chi diagram, or the strongest red fire element and ice-blue water element in the five elements, they are all supreme weapons to eliminate ghosts and monsters.
He is no longer the ordinary young man who was helpless against the dark monsters in the weird town of Austin. To be honest, he really wants to find some kids to practice with, but unfortunately he never had the chance. Maybe there will be some unexpected surprises this time.
