Qu Jianlei and others did not expect that the soul body would be so difficult to deal with.
However, in all conscience, a few people were still a little greedy. This almost unheard of existence aroused their great interest.
They didn't even realize it, but their instinct was to capture the opponent.
If they really want to kill the opponent with all their strength, they can use all their thunder methods.
Of course, that may not necessarily kill the opponent, but it is still safer than now.
Soon enough, Qu Jianlei's mental power stabbed the soul, but immediately after, the opponent still sank into the wall.
"Oops!" The paranoid sighed depressingly, "This guy still ran away!"
Mrs. Jia was also weaker than him in terms of mental strength. Her face changed when she heard this, "Did you really run away?"
In this case, wouldn't there be a risk of exposure to one's own side?
Qinghu's mental strength is not as good as these two, but her focus is also different, "Boss, what are you..."
Qu Jianlei closed his eyes and turned pale. He paused for three or four seconds before shaking his head vigorously.
"I'm fine, but this guy swallowed up a little bit of my mental energy..."
"I'll go," the paranoid's face changed when he heard this, "Your mental power has been swallowed up? Fortunately, I didn't use mental attacks."
He asked himself that his cultivation level was not worse than that of his boss, but in terms of mental strength, he was slightly inferior.
It cannot be said that his mental power is not enough, it is really... the boss's mental power is too abnormal.
Almost at the same time, an extremely subtle fluctuation appeared in the air at the stairs outside the room.
However, no one really noticed this.
Mrs. Jia's expression also changed, "It's actually able to swallow spiritual power... It can't be worse than Mu Yu, right?"
The paranoid rolled his eyes at her when he heard this and thought to himself, "What are you talking about?"
Just then, Qu Jianlei snorted again and slowly opened his eyes with a strange expression.
"Boss, should we leave now?" Qinghu asked proactively.
Adol hasn't been killed yet, but this matter is no longer important. It's more important to get out in time.
"Wait a moment..." Qu Jianlei replied weakly and rubbed his forehead again.
"Then wait a minute," the paranoid said simply, and then explained to the others quite thoughtfully.
"The sudden loss of mental power really has a great impact on people. Mu Yu has experienced it, and I have also experienced it..."
"As for being devoured, that would be even more terrifying. It would be taken away from you forcefully."
Everyone nodded after hearing this. This kind of information was not accessible to ordinary people, but no one was surprised.
At this moment, Qu Jianlei snorted again and spoke with a strange expression, "But the good news is, it doesn't seem to be able to digest it!"
As long as it's good news, everyone was about to nod when Mrs. Jia asked, "The consequences of not being able to digest it...can it be located?"
"That's right," Qu Jianlei's face showed a dumbfounded expression, "It's really amazing."
When everyone heard this, you looked at me and I looked at you, and for a moment they didn't know what to say.
If possible, of course everyone would want to catch up, but even if they catch up, what should they do?
Another point is that the boss's mental power has not been digested yet. Once he catches up, will it have a negative impact on him?
When Qu Jianlei heard that they were both silent, he subconsciously said, "Leave first and clean up the atmosphere."
For them, leaving is too easy.
Not long after, they reunited with the two rescuers, and the seven of them moved fifty kilometers away.
By this time, Qu Jianlei's condition had improved a lot, but he still quietly took out a capsule and threw it into his mouth.
After another seven or eight minutes, he opened his eyes and spoke slowly, "I have located the guy. What do you mean?"
"We must kill him!" the paranoid said without hesitation, "It would be best if we could capture Sohun."
"I'm afraid this won't work," Mrs. Jia shook her head hastily, "Adol is just a soul. How do you want me to search?"
Then it shouldn't be torn apart on the spot?
But then, Qu Jianlei said a shocking news, "He is not Adol."
The scene fell silent instantly. After a while, the paranoid man tentatively spoke, "In other words... is it still a matter of taking over the body?"
No one knows more about seizing a body than he does.
"It shouldn't be about taking away the body," Qu Jianlei shook his head, "The spiritual power is not very pure and difficult to control, but it can't be taken away."
He felt that what the other party was doing was more like raising a corpse, or... refining a puppet?
But he really didn't know how to explain these concepts to his teammates.
However, if I can't stand it, none of my teammates can save fuel.
Qinghu asked directly, "In other words, Adol is dead and someone is controlling his body now?"
The scene was silent again, and Claire couldn't help but shudder.
She dared to swear that she was not scared, but...why did she sound so frightened and panicked?
Qu Jianlei smiled bitterly upon hearing this, "I really want to say no, but there is no doubt that the possibility of what you said is very high."
The paranoid eyes suddenly lit up, "In other words, it is possible for us to catch this person?"
What he never forgets is to form a "soul body team" at home.
"What I want is to kill him," Qu Jianlei still publicly stated his position.
This is not only influenced by Blue Star's concept, but more importantly, "If we show mercy to him, we are likely to suffer the consequences."
Mrs. Jia nodded, "I support your point of view. To be honest, I think this method is very...evil!"
When the paranoid heard this, he shook his head disapprovingly. Where can there be any evil means in the world? There are only evil hearts!
But now that the boss has made the decision, he doesn't bother to say any more.
If he doesn't object out loud, others will be less likely to object. Hua Scorpion and the other three non-Supremes are basically impossible to oppose.
"Let's take a rest," Qu Jianlei said in a deep voice, "I also have a headache. I'll try to set off in half an hour."
In fact, before half an hour passed, his expression changed again, "This is still... really interesting."
The escape speed of that spiritual power was extremely fast. It took only ten minutes to reach more than 3,000 kilometers away.
Almost no supreme being can run so fast, but this is mental power, which is essentially a kind of wave, so it is not surprising to have such speed.
What makes Qu Jianlei find it interesting is that the last place where the soul body stayed was near the "Human Potential Research Institute".
This research institute is an official establishment and has a very high level. It is directly under the jurisdiction of the Star Territory Government, and Xueye's Planet Government has no right to interfere.
The nature of the institute is to develop human potential, including but not limited to research on superpowers.
The achievements of this institute... are a mystery. There is no public information showing what achievements they have made.
However, the security level here is extremely high, and a restricted area has been set up around it, prohibiting anyone from entering casually.
Qu Jianlei and others once passed by this place and tried to sneak in to take a look. They found that this research institute was not worthy of its name.
The restricted area is overgrown with weeds, and there are not many monitoring and warning equipment. It looks very dilapidated.
These may all be illusions, but Xiaohu easily invaded the control center of the institute, so this cannot be a disguise.
Xiaohu easily found the financial details in the institute's database.
Anyone can lie, but data cannot lie.
Financial data shows that this place enjoys a considerable amount of imperial special funding every year, and its expenditures are also very huge.
The price of purchasing a vortex terminal is more than 30 million, which is equivalent to half a small attack ship. Who dares to believe this?
Ordinary ergonomic integrated desks and chairs are available on the market for RMB 500 to RMB 700, but the purchase price here is RMB 2,000...
It’s really equivalent to a month’s salary of Beanie.
However, there are really no relevant scientific research results.
It’s not that the institute wants to hide it. Looking at their internal documents, you can tell that they have the courage to “fight against repeated defeats.”
Qu Jianlei immediately labeled this place a "fund fraud".
However, this kind of thing is not uncommon on Blue Star. The empire has such a large territory, so it is normal for some omissions to occur.
Needless to say, Qu Jianlei really didn't expect that the research institute he co-authored was not an ordinary mess.
In addition to defrauding funds, there are actually people who secretly practice ghost cultivation.
However, thinking about it again, it is not surprising, because there are not many places where the Empire can openly collect souls.
Don't look at Qu Jianlei who is always fighting and killing, the people of the Empire are also very brave and fierce, and they are very indifferent to life and death. It seems that people can die everywhere.
But in fact, there are not many fixed places in the Empire where people can reasonably kill people.
Or because of the great interstellar voyage, the rapidly expanding empire required the support of a large population.
In addition to encouraging childbirth, the verification of death penalty is very strict - if you can avoid the death penalty, try not to impose it.
This kind of preferential treatment is not limited to awakened people, ordinary people can also enjoy it.
The empire's careful execution of the death penalty and the empire's citizens' indifference to life and death are actually not contradictory, and can even be said to be two sides of the same coin.
The former was due to the urgent need for population during the great voyage, and the latter was due to the fearless courage required in the great voyage.
Approval of death sentences is very cautious. Although there are quite a few accidental deaths, there are not many places in the empire where people die regularly.
Of course, we have to exclude hospitals when it comes to this. Any hospital has a lot of advanced equipment, and it is very dangerous to collect souls.
And this "Human Potential Research Institute" is an institution that can openly conduct experiments on death row prisoners.
So choosing this kind of place to collect souls is very suitable and low-key.
What made Qu Jianlei dumbfounded was that at the time, he felt that the area around this research institute should be relatively safe.
Not only is it an officially authorized restricted area, but it also involves money fraud, so you will naturally be wary of outsiders. Isn’t this safe enough?
So he installed a teleportation array in the nearby mountains.
Of course, there are also some corresponding confidentiality methods.
For example, the door can only be opened from the inside out. To enter from the outside, you need to check the password. If the password is incorrect once, it will self-destruct.
Now that this soul body has actually escaped there, he is really dumbfounded.
