Chapter 209 Taking Advantage of the Situation

Li Sheng put down the Glock, took out the electronic pet egg and knocked it on the table.

Hui Yu stretched out lazily and jumped out of thin air. She looked at Caroline in a bathrobe, then looked at the baby on the bed, and said to Li Sheng in surprise: "What year is it today? How come you have a child after I haven't appeared for a while?"

"Space, space-based superpowers?"

Caroline opened her mouth in surprise. Even among all superpowers, space-based superpowers are one of the rarest abilities. What's more, this man seems to have put a living person in an electronic container.

"Just treat me as me."

Li Sheng is neither a superpower nor Hui Yu is a living person. He had no intention of correcting Caroline, and quickly said: "As long as you understand one thing, we will help you escort this baby to the destination.

Now you need to explain how long you have been running away from that company, where is your destination, and whether there is anyone to meet you on the way."

Caroline hesitated. The baby Angelica in her arms has the talent of sensing people's hearts. Since Angelica did not hate the performance of the two people in front of her, they might, probably, or maybe they really came to help?

"I executed the plan after everyone got off work and escaped from the Pioneer Company in Chicago. It's been about five hours since now. If I'm lucky, they won't find out until tomorrow.

The final destination is Angel City on the west coast, where people from Avalon will pick me up."

Caroline added: "Avalon is a non-governmental organization composed of people with superpowers. It is established on a Pacific island and opposes and exposes the persecution of people with superpowers by the government and large companies."

It sounds a bit like Krakava, the island of life established by Magneto in Marvel Comics. However, the strength of NPCs in this script world should not be as terrifying as Magneto.

Li Sheng thought to himself and said quickly: "Take your things and we'll leave now"

Dongdongdong!

There was a dull knock on the door outside the house, and a man's voice sounded, "Hello? Is anyone there? I'm a hotel staff member. The downstairs resident complained that this room was leaking. Can I come in and see what's going on?"

The knock on the door in the middle of the night was really weird. Caroline was pale and hugged Angelica tightly in her arms, while Huiyu was rubbing his hands and eager to try.

"Lie down."

Li Sheng thought for a moment, and asked Caroline and the others to lie down under the bed. He gently cut Caroline's shoulder with his fingertips and drew some blood.

The worm gene was activated, and Li Sheng changed into Caroline's appearance and opened the door.

A man with sparse stubble stood outside the door. He was wearing a motel front desk uniform and holding a toolbox. He looked normal. "Hello, I'm here to see if the bathroom is leaking."

Before he finished the word "situation", Li Sheng punched the man in the abdomen. The terrifying impact made his eyes almost bulge out, and the whole person fainted.

Li Sheng grabbed his collar with one hand, dragged him into the room and threw him to the ground, then poked his head out to look at the corridor. After confirming that no one was paying attention, he closed the door and opened the toolbox that fell on the ground. Sure enough, he found a SIG Sauer pistol with the serial number erased inside.

The pistol was not equipped with a silencer, which indirectly proved that this person was not a professional.

"It seems that your whereabouts have been discovered."

Li Sheng glanced at Caroline, whose face was pale. The information integration glasses he was wearing just now clearly showed that the hotel receptionist was a second-level superpower.

Gulp.

Huiyu swallowed her saliva. She was not afraid, but Li Sheng was now wearing a neat suit and glasses, and still had Caroline's delicate features. She immediately lowered her voice and said, "Well, I think in order to confuse the pursuer, why don't you use this look all the way."

? ? ?

You are not right.

Li Sheng was full of black lines, picked up the remote control that fell on the ground and hit Huiyu lightly, then changed back to his own face, and reached out to touch the carotid artery of the hotel receptionist.

This person was not dead, but the skin all over his body squirmed, slowly turning into a young man with shifty eyes.

"Shaper."

Caroline whispered, "Can change into other people's appearance in a short time."

She was more and more confused. The man in front of her who claimed to help her first showed spatial ability and then showed the ability to transform. Could it be that he was an extremely rare dual-ability person?

Li Sheng had no time to answer Caroline's confusion. He slapped the young man with shifty eyes twice and forced him to turn on his phone.

"Don't kill me! I'm just a small drug dealer."

The young man begged for mercy with pain: "I stayed in this motel a few days ago and saw you in the hotel parking lot during the day. If you don't believe me, look at my room card!

I saw the wanted order of Pioneer Company for [Woman with Baby] on the dark web of superpowers, so I had a crooked idea.

Look."

He took out his mobile phone tremblingly. There was a simple webpage on the screen, with clear photos of Caroline and Angelica, as well as detailed information such as height, hair color, and missing address.

The reward was issued ten minutes ago.

The reward is $8 million, and the note requires capture alive.

Li Sheng raised his eyebrows, threw the phone to Caroline, and then took out a handmade bomb vest from the three-dimensional warehouse and put it on the young man.

"Wait, what are you going to do?!"

The young man struggled violently, but it was useless.

"I can not kill you, but you have to do these things."

Li Sheng took out the tape and tightly tied the bomb vest to the young man, and then put a loose hoodie on him to cover the vest.

"Aren't you a shapeshifter?

You need to transform into her, put on sunglasses and a mask, drive north along the highway, and drive for ten hours. Keep the video call on your phone open the whole time, and I will monitor you through the video."

Li Sheng said quickly: "Do what I say honestly, and the bomb will automatically shut down after ten hours.

Otherwise, if you abandon the car and run away, the bomb will explode. If you mess with your phone, the bomb will explode. If you ask for help from passers-by, the bomb will explode. If you tip off Pioneer, the bomb will explode.

Do you understand?"

The young man felt the heavy weight of the bomb vest on his body, and was so scared that he couldn't speak. "I, I am only a second-level mutant. I can only transform for tens of seconds each time, and I can't maintain the transformed state all the time."

He didn't lie. If his ability to transform was stronger and lasted longer, he would have become a formal employee of Pioneer Company long ago. At worst, he could become a senior male public relations, transforming into a big star every day to accompany rich women to drink and play cards.

Why stay in this shabby motel and make a living by buying and selling banned drugs?

"It doesn't matter. Didn't I tell you to wear a mask and sunglasses? You just need to transform once in a while."

Li Sheng took the phone back from Caroline, turned on the video call function, and handed it to the young man.

The latter got up from the ground with a sad face, but before he took two steps, the vest under the hoodie made a rapid beeping sound, which scared him so much that he rolled and crawled, transformed into Caroline, ran downstairs, got into his dilapidated pickup truck, and drove north.

"."

Caroline looked at the young man's fleeing back, and her brain didn't react for a while. She subconsciously looked at Li Sheng and asked, "That bomb vest is fake, right?"

Li Sheng glanced at her and smiled, "Don't worry, it's just a carbon water bomb."

? ? Aren't people also made of carbon water? To put it bluntly, it's still a real bomb vest, right? Is that right?

Caroline had a lot to complain about. At Li Sheng's urging, she went to the bathroom to quickly change her clothes, took away the used towels and toothbrushes, and splashed bleach, disinfectant, and deodorant on all the places she had touched in the room.

The shapeshifter just now could find Caroline, and other superpowers and Pioneer employees would find this place sooner or later.

More importantly.

"The bounty has been updated."

Li Sheng glanced at his phone, and two new descriptions were added to the bounty for Caroline and Angelica on the dark web.

[Everyone should pay attention. There is a high probability that there is a powerful and unknown level 4 psychic around the target]

[That level 4 psychic will also be considered a target. There is no need to capture or kill these three people alive. Just providing clues can also get a reward of one million from Pioneer]

"Heh."

Li Sheng chuckled. It is impossible for Pioneer to know his news so quickly.

It can only prove one thing, that the unknown enemy player has borrowed the "momentum" of Pioneer.

At the same time, Cervantes, a member of the Laughing Troupe in the Intelligence Command Center of the Pioneer Company's headquarters building in Chicago, Michigan, also chuckled.

Cervantes knew very well that once these two new descriptions were updated and launched, the unknown hostile player would instantly know of his existence.

But it didn't matter, there was a huge gap in information between the two sides.

This cat-and-mouse game would end with his victory.

'I've been detained by the Special Affairs Bureau for so long and interrogated every day. It's time for me to win at the dog-killing field, right? '
