Chapter 349

Tubuai is covered with thick vegetation, like a green leaf on the vast sea. Scattered villages with sparse population are distributed on this green leaf, like white insect eggs left by butterflies.

Local residents have lived in this tiny place for generations, and the extreme lack of resources makes them cherish everything here. Because they know that the land under their feet is so large and there are so many things on the ground. When they run out, there will be no more. They love every handful of soil, every tree and every drop of fresh water here. In addition to living necessities, they hardly cut down, and even the houses they build can be simple.

Therefore, the vegetation here is dense and uniform, and there are few exposed rocks except the sea. However, the hillside where Qingmu is located is an exception.

Here is like a worm eaten scar on the green leaf, or the withered scar left by it during the last severe winter. No matter how many spring warm cycles this leaf has experienced, it can no longer awaken its long lost vitality. In the green everywhere, there is not a tree, a bush of thorns and a grass, only yellowish brown scorched soil and rocks.

The hillside has little fluctuation, and some weathered rocks are scattered in the first half. Until the top of the slope, the number of rocks increased. Near the top of the slope, there were piles of rocks, seemingly disorderly and arranged according to some law.

However, Aoki is still some distance away from there, but now he feels that there is a wall in front of him, blocking his way.

In fact, he knows very well that this wall is invisible and a spiritual barrier.

If he is an ordinary person, he may not feel anything different. As long as he stretches his foot forward, he can pass without hindrance. However, if the person's spirit is sensitive or has the ability to wake up, the spiritual consciousness will probably be affected by this thick spiritual wall, so that their brain will really think that there is a wall in front of them, so they can only detour.

Aoki certainly won't have hallucinations, but he is also difficult to break through easily. At this moment, if he runs hard, he must try his best to pierce the spiritual barrier in front, but it is difficult to interfere with the fast shooting bullets with mental strength. He can't take up his mental strength and walk up like an ordinary person, which will really become a live target.

He could only move forward slowly step by step.

This spiritual wall is very thick, and the more you go inside, the more thick and solidified it is. It's like sinking into a swamp, surrounded by viscous liquid.

He had to walk hard in the swamp and be careful against bullets that might come.

Aoki can almost conclude that this spiritual power is never released by someone. Because he obviously felt that this force did not have a subject of consciousness, a bit like the spiritual force attached to the bullet just shot. Moreover, it is difficult for a single conscious body to release such a huge spiritual power. Even if it can do so, it is an act that the gain is not worth the loss.

Just like Aoki himself, he will use his mental power to hypnotize other people's consciousness and enter other people's dreams, or interfere with other people's consciousness and control part of the nervous system through his mental power, so as to affect people's behavior. He will never be foolish enough to release his power like a flood, unless he wants to affect the thinking of tens of thousands of people in the gym, but what's the significance? That kind of consumption is not affordable for ordinary people, and recovery is also very troublesome.

If it is not released by people, where does this spiritual force come from?

Aoki looked up at the pile of rocks called tabu by qiqika on the top of the slope.

Crows hovered in the sky. From its posture, it probably encountered the same situation. Therefore, the thick wall of the spirit is not just a horizontal wall, but a raised hemisphere centered on Tabu.

Therefore, the track left by the bullet that shot at the crow in the sky is not the spiritual track of the bullet itself, but the track left when it tore the dignified spiritual barrier.

With the approach of the footsteps and the far release of the spirit, Aoki confirmed his idea, but the only surprise to him was that the tatab center was empty. There is no spiritual strength at all. It is like the eye of a typhoon. There are thick clouds and twelve level waves around it, but the center is quiet and peaceful, as if isolated from the world.

Aoki was sure that the sniper with the gun was hiding in the center of the vacuum like nerve storm - those strange rocks, but he couldn't find the conscious body.

He knows that this is a contrast effect, because the concentration of spiritual power on the periphery is too high and the interference is too serious. People hiding inside can hide themselves as long as they are careful and don't deliberately release spiritual power.

Aoki narrowed his eyes and took a few steps forward. The invisible thick wall was broken like the ice surface of the Arctic Ocean encountered by an icebreaker.

A bullet came towards Aoki.

At this distance, the bullet came too fast. Aoki must deal with it carefully. At the moment when he was locked by the bullet, he suddenly stopped and interfered with the trajectory of the bullet with mental force.

With a "poof", the bullet hit a crack in the nearby rock.

But the second bullet came immediately.

Probably felt a great threat. This time, the gunman did not intend to let him go, nor did he intend to test his shooting skills, but madly fired several bullets in a row.

This is exactly what Aoki wants.

He didn't care how many bullets, as long as the mental force was still attached to the bullet, and the speed of the bullet didn't get faster. No matter how many bullets came, he could control it.

Aoki can judge the specific location of the sniper from the weak and short track left by the bullet tearing the mental barrier. The reason why we need several consecutive tracks is that the center of the Tabb spiritual barrier is empty, there is no spiritual force, and the bullet has no track. The track there needs Aoki's own brain to make up. Only one bullet is not enough, at least not accurate enough. If the approximate position is not mental, it has long been judged only from the shooting direction of the bullet.

All the bullets passed Aoki without exception.

Aoki finally determined the man's location, just behind a pile of stones. The shape and gap of the rocks there were like naturally designed field barriers, so that the gunmen could ambush behind, but the people under the hillside could not see him.

When the position was determined, Aoki concentrated and grasped the man's consciousness at once.

……

Petru held up his gun and hid behind the hard rock. He began to seriously doubt his shooting skills.

He has always been very confident. Whether in the mercenary period or in his career as a pirate, his shooting skills have never lost to anyone. However, today, he has missed ten shots in a row, even a bird in the sky. This is still with the mental power bonus brought by this tabu.

He felt that the mental locking function of the bullet was no longer available, and he had to use the sight.

However, when he wanted to install the sight on the gun, he suddenly found that he couldn't move. He determined that his blood circulation was normal without numbness and injury, but he could not control his muscles and bones, as if the body no longer belonged to him, but was controlled by another consciousness.

Until the man approached, he looked at him in horror and asked in a hoarse voice with the only throat muscle he could control:

“Whoareyou?”
