After the magician left with the tyrant, only Cheng Lejia and Ai Liang, who was hiding and eavesdropping, were left in the sea.
Ai Liang originally wanted to see if he could overhear any useful information from the Apostles' Association.
As a result, the three of them separated without saying a word.
The only information that could be useful was that the disciples were planning to go to the tyrant's territory.
If there is a chance, we can use this information to make a deal with the Countermeasures Bureau.
Just when Ai Liang was about to leave, Cheng Lejia suddenly stopped walking towards the portal.
He frowned and suddenly looked in the direction of Ai Liang: "Who?!"
While speaking, more than a dozen magma swords were thrust into Ai Liang's position from all directions.
Paji.
The lava sword that hit the shield turned back into a pool of magma and fell into the sea.
Ai Liang withdrew from his invisibility and revealed his figure.
It’s not that you can’t escape, it’s that there’s no need to escape.
Mental shields and mental shields can indeed be hidden from most apostles.
But Cheng Lejia is an apostle who specializes in space. He can still sense whether there are people in a certain area.
Previously, Zhou Tian's teleportation disturbed his perception, so he could not find Ai Liang hiding nearby at the first time.
"Hermit? You didn't leave?"
Cheng Lejia said in surprise.
Ai Liang glanced at him, said nothing, turned around and left.
"Wait a minute, don't leave in such a hurry." Cheng Lejia quickly stopped Ai Liang.
In the previous battle, it was the magician who was mainly responsible for containing Xia Qiyuan.
Cheng Lejia spent most of his time eavesdropping on the conversations between Qianmian and Ai Liang outside the space blockade.
So he also learned the reason why Ai Liang was reluctant to join the Apostles.
His purpose from the beginning to the end was to settle accounts with the Thousand Faces Man, and he had no intention of intervening in the battle between the Apostles and the Countermeasures Bureau.
Since it's the fault of a thousand-faced man, maybe someone else can persuade me and it will be done?
Cheng Lejia felt that she was very promising, so she planned to give it a try.
He blocked Ai Liang's path with a flicker of his eye: "Oh, I can understand your opinions on Gaia, but you can't let this case affect your views on the entire Apostle Association, right?
There are only a few members in our Apostolic Church. You can think of it as a big family, and everyone has a good relationship with each other...
Well, Ai Xi is just a little cold, but I feel like you and her should be able to chat very well..."
"Step aside."
Ai Liang said calmly.
"Everything I said is true. I have a bad attitude towards humans because they are not the same species as us. Just like humans don't regard gorillas as the same kind. We maintain the appearance of humans just for convenience..."
bass!
A dazzling beam of light fell in front of Cheng Lejia.
"Get out of the way, I don't want to say it a third time."
Ai Liang's lack of oil and salt made Cheng Lejia a little discouraged.
But after all, he had just been taught a lesson by Heat Death. Facing this beam of light in front of him, which had a similar ability to Heat Death, he still felt a little scared in his heart.
Cheng Lejia chose to get out of the way and no longer stood in front of Ai Liang.
"This guy is just like Ai Xi. He just doesn't listen to anyone's advice."
Cheng Lejia whispered softly.
"Why do I always encounter such facial paralysis monsters? I don't know how to communicate with them at all. Maybe I should find someone to practice with them first? The cold and paralyzed guy around me... By the way! That Ai Liang..."
Phew! Buzz!
The originally open portal was pressed down by some huge force in an instant and became smaller than the eye of a needle.
Cheng Lejia, who noticed the change in the space door, wanted to turn back, but he was horrified to find that he couldn't even move a finger.
Not only that.
The black smoke in the sky no longer scatters in all directions, and the turbulent waves no longer roll and surge.
The cooked fish rolled out of the water were fixed in mid-air, and all the raindrops falling from the dark clouds stopped.
Even the fishy smell emanating from the fish meat was solidified.
Everything around me freezes as if the stop button has been pressed.
This naturally includes space.
Cheng Lejia's heart felt like it was being squeezed tightly by a big hand, as if some great terror was about to come.
Every cell in the body is emitting danger signals and desperately warning.
He wanted to tremble all over his body, but couldn't. He wanted to make a sound, but couldn't. He wanted to go crazy, but couldn't.
Ever since Cheng Lejia became conscious, he had never felt such a strong sense of fear, even when he had just faced heat death.
This fear, like facing a predator at the top of the food chain, is destroying his will bit by bit.
The only thing Cheng Lejia could do was to stare closely at Ai Liang in front of him.
As Ai Liang turned around, this fear began to gradually increase.
Cheng Lejia used all his strength, even used his space ability to raise his alveolar, and combined with the vibration of his body to freeze the air, he managed to spit out one word: "You..."
Ai Liang looked at Cheng Lejia with an indifferent expression.
He slowly raised his hand and said in a cold tone: "You shouldn't mention that name."
……………………
"Just sleep in there for a while, and I'll come see you in a few months."
The magician threw the tyrant into a sarcophagus: "You are more seriously injured now than last time. Thanks to you having been absorbing energy to strengthen your body over the years, otherwise it is hard to say whether you would have survived."
The tyrant stared at the ceiling: "Remember to turn on the electricity."
The magician couldn't help but cover his face and sighed: "You're hurt like this, can't you just rest for a while? Heat Death is already dead, and it will take a long time for the next generation of Heat Death to grow up, so don't be so anxious. "
The tyrant, whose head had almost recovered, did not speak, but closed his eyes silently, with an expression as if he was ignoring you and thinking I would lose.
The magician waved wordlessly, pulled out a ten centimeter diameter wire from the wall, then inserted it directly into the sarcophagus and closed the lid.
Just when the magician was about to leave here, a rapid mental wave crashed directly into his brain.
"Hiss, Gaia, please stay calm. If something happens, you can't use the engraving..."
The magician just wanted to complain, but the information contained in the mental wave made his expression change drastically.
The magician immediately activated his space ability and wanted to return to Cheng Lejia.
But the space that could be entered and exited at will just now was completely frozen.
It's not that someone is interfering with the use of space abilities, but that everything in that space is firmly bound by some kind of force.
"Time and space is frozen? Could it be... wrong! Someone is using pure power to forcibly fix everything in that area!"
The magician discovered that although the space looked like time had stood still, he could still open a small hole by using his space ability with all his strength.
"Is this done by the hermit? Using mental power to stabilize such a large area... What a joke!"
