Chapter 267 Refuge

Chen Ke didn't think that the crystal gun just now could kill the other party, and the speed that the other party just showed was really eye-opening for him. It was definitely not the speed that a normal person could have.

In just half a breath, the man could immediately disappear from Chen Ke's sight, quickly go around his side, and at the same time hit his head with the butt of the gun.

This was equivalent to moving the position and completing an attack in less than a second. Chen Ke was at least a professional killer, and he couldn't react to this kind of action.

Think about it carefully, since crossing to this world, the knowledge related to psychic power that Chen Ke has understood and come into contact with is still very superficial. What the mysterious man showed in a short moment just now brought a huge shock to Chen Ke.

In Chen Ke's current understanding of psychic power, there are only diamonds that can summon ancient cold weapons and secret stones that can learn skills. Moreover, there are only two types of psychics that he knows.

One type is people like Diana and Parker. They do have differences in psychic power, but if they don't use the holy diamond, they can't detect the difference between each other.

What's more terrible is that the psychic power of people like them is not permanent. They need to be drained regularly to clear it, as if they are afraid that their bodies can't bear it.

In the 2006 timeline, Diana, as a CPA agent, is not as good as Chen Ke after draining... But before draining, Chen Ke guessed that her combat power would not be much worse than Ying Baiyi.

In other words, how strong their combat power is depends on what equipment and skills the Administration will equip them with, and they have no control over their power.

The other type is Balder and Asra, they... no, they have completely turned into inhuman monsters, and in return they have complete control over their power.

But is this price a bit too high? Will someone really give up their qualifications to be human in order to pursue power?

And they don't seem to need to use the holy diamond, but gather a lot of power in their bodies and use it at will.

Chen Ke doesn't envy them, that's not power, but a curse.

The mysterious man just met can be said to be the third type of psychic that Chen Ke has encountered. He was equipped with next-generation high-tech armor. Although it was not as sci-fi as Iron Man, it was also very avant-garde. His holy object was actually a gun.

Until now, Chen Ke was not sure whether the gun was a holy object, because from Chen Ke's own experience of using holy objects, summoning them did not require special gestures. As long as the diamond was on the body, he could summon it immediately by thinking about it.

But that person obviously needed to spend time to slowly take the gun out of his palm, so it was not yet determined whether that thing was a holy object. Maybe the other party just wanted to show off. In any case, Chen Ke was very glad that he did not give him the opportunity to shoot.

In addition to this, what the man said just now also made him very concerned.

"In your time, the use of psychic energy is still in its most elementary stage. Ignorance brings fearlessness, and fearlessness causes disasters. This is why we must stop you from completing the cycle."

The elementary stage of using psychic energy... This made Chen Ke suddenly think of another holy object of his, the candlestick that can dispel illusions. Because Chen Ke's IQ is not enough, he can still use it as a flashlight...

Combined with the strange speed of that person, Chen Ke couldn't help but wonder, does it mean that psychic energy can strengthen all aspects of human beings?

If so, will it be like Asra... turn people into deformities?

This is not very clear, because the other party did not take off his helmet, Chen Ke could not judge whether the other party, like Brother Huixin, still has a normal human form.

And when Chen Ke clearly told Brother Huixin that he had a way to take him out of the Great Void, he said that he did not come from his time...

This sentence is worth pondering.

Even if Brother Huixin came from a more distant future, it would be more reliable to travel back to 2009 than to stay in the Great Void, right?

But he refused.

This means that "his time" is different from the time that Chen Ke can understand. According to what that person said, "Ignorance brings fearlessness... prevents you from completing the cycle...", I am afraid that these two guys are not just from the future.

To be honest, although Chen Ke has traveled through time many times, he still has no concept of time. In his cognition, the world is three-dimensional. There was a saying before that time is the fourth dimension, but it was quickly overturned.

Time is time. It is not linked to dimension. It is more like a unit of measurement. It can even be said that time is a concept created by humans, and time does not exist in the universe.

Time is just the way humans understand the universe.

Chen Ke walked through the alley, looking back from time to time. Although he did not find the outline of the mysterious man within the range of his spiritual vision, he still did not dare to stop.

The farther he ran, the better. Chen Ke had only this idea. He could not get any advantage by fighting with him now. The opponent's ability to move was far superior to his own, and he was still using a gun. He could only be killed head-on.

"+30 hours"

"+30 hours"

"+30 hours"

"+30 hours"

...

Just as Chen Ke was alert behind him, a series of life-increasing prompts jumped in the corner of his eyes.

Chen Ke stood firm and saw three silver knights standing in the middle of the street in front of him, surrounded by dozens of soldiers' bodies.

They looked at him, holding their shields in front of their chests, and slowly walked towards Chen Ke.

"Three..." Chen Ke's muscles tensed up, preparing to blow them away with a burst of spiritual energy.

"Wait...he's from the city." A silver knight suddenly said.

The murderous aura is gone.

"Hey, why don't you take refuge in the palace?" Silver Knight asked.

"Lost..." Chen Ke replied, hiding the gun in his wide sleeve.

"Go along the main street and join the refugee team. The guards will take you to the palace shelter. Move forward quickly, citizens." Another silver knight said.

Chen Ke nodded and ran in the direction the silver knight said.

"What should I do if it's a spy?" After Chen Ke left, one of the silver knights suddenly asked.

"The palace is full of people from the Knights of Van Heder. Even spies won't survive tonight." Another silver knight said coldly.

Chen Ke quickly found the refugee team that the Silver Knights called. He put on his hood and blended in, trying to keep a distance from the surrounding soldiers.

Maybe it was the combination of the sky and the firelight that made it difficult to see the face, or maybe the number of refugees was too large for the soldiers to check one by one. In short, Chen Ke miraculously sneaked into the open space of the castle acropolis.

A large group of refugees sat on the lawn, and there were desperate sounds of fighting outside the fence. The end of medieval siege warfare was the battle for the Acropolis. When the royal palace fell completely, the country was declared destroyed.

Chen Ke glanced with his spiritual vision and estimated the number of refugees. It was estimated that there were thousands of people. A large number of silver knights stood in the inner courtyard, guarding each entrance and exit.

Chen Ke sat where he was, not having any plans for the time being, wanting to see how Van Heder's ruling class would deal with it.

Perhaps, the royal family has escaped through the secret passage? But judging from the density of the Silver Knights in the city, it doesn't look like the king has escaped.

Moreover, Chen Ke was very concerned about who threw the thunder that split the sling outside the city.

The surrounding civilians were crying softly, and even if they were not crying, they were still sighing. After all, their belongings had been burned to the ground, and no one was in a good mood.

Chen Ke looked up at the sky. The dark sky was slightly lighter in color. The clouds burned red by the fire slowly dissipated. The moon was now hanging in the western sky.

It's going to be daybreak.
