The surrounding elders and villagers took turns speaking with Wen Wen, but every one who dared to speak was rebuffed by him.
"You only argue with me but never make a move. As villains, you are truly quite kind."
Wen Wen even had time to mock these people because their debating skills were so poor. Their thinking was rigid, and they repeatedly spouted the same few sour phrases.
Wen Wen wanted to try and lure out the mastermind through this debate.
But as Wen Wen was arguing with them, Yuan Zhi behind him gradually became confused.
After hesitating for a moment, he took two steps forward and said with a pained expression, "I might truly be guilty. I'm sorry, everyone..."
Wen Wen immediately stopped talking, his pupils dilating slightly. Yuan Zhi had been perfectly normal just a moment ago, so how could he be like this in such a short time, as if he had been brainwashed?
He was turning into the same as the other townsfolk!
Wen Wen was very sure that after meeting Yuan Zhi, nothing else had come into contact with him. Su Dan Novel Network.
Therefore, what caused Yuan Zhi and these townsfolk to change must be something invisible to the naked eye, continuous, and omnipresent!
If that were the case, continuing to waste time here would only make things worse.
So, Wen Wen made a decisive move. With a chop, the repentant Yuan Zhi immediately fell unconscious. Then, Wen Wen hoisted him onto his shoulder.
"San Zai'er, go protect my car. If these people damage my car, I'll feed you shit!"
After speaking, Wen Wen leaped two meters into the air. Light as a swallow, he stepped on a townsfolk's head, then, as if treading on stakes, he used their skulls to push his way out of the encirclement.
Because all the townsfolk moved in the same way, with their backs straight, Wen Wen stepped very steadily.
Wen Wen's lips curled up. "Tsk, it turns out martial arts movies aren't all lies. You really can move like this..."
He wasn't using any monster physiques at the moment, relying solely on his own strength to achieve a scene that could only be seen in movies.
But just as he was halfway through, the smile on Wen Wen's face vanished because he stepped on a shiny bald head!
This bald head was also very slippery!
Naturally, Wen Wen, carrying someone, fell to the ground and was then surrounded by these people.
The townsfolk surged forward like a tide, trying to suppress Wen Wen.
They clung tightly to Wen Wen and Yuan Zhi, preventing Wen Wen from jumping away.
He looked slightly troubled. If only he hadn't given that horn to Heng An, otherwise, he could have just blown the horn to suppress these townsfolk.
However, Wen Wen was only slightly troubled. These mentally unsound townsfolk still couldn't do anything to him.
The townsfolk simply held onto Wen Wen, preventing him from escaping, and then began to condemn him volubly. Combined with their expressions of disgust and disdain, it made Wen Wen feel somewhat nauseated.
"I don't quite understand. You're holding me like this but not attacking me. Do you want to starve me to death, or disgust me to death?"
The mayor, leaning on his cane, walked over unsteadily and said to Wen Wen, "The Creator teaches us not to use violence against our brethren, but we can convert you with justice and love."
Then, the old man stared at Wen Wen with a very gentle and righteous gaze... he wanted to awaken the shame in Wen Wen's heart.
Wen Wen was silent for two seconds, then extended two fingers.
The mayor looked at Wen Wen, puzzled. What did he want to do with two fingers?
Then, Wen Wen poked the mayor's eyes...
"Are you crazy!"
The mayor clutched his eyes, writhing on the ground in pain, while the others looked at Wen Wen with even more disgust.
Of course, Wen Wen hadn't used too much force; at most, it would prevent him from opening his eyes for a while.
But if the mayor developed any eye disease because of these two fingers, Wen Wen would not be responsible.
After poking down the mayor, Wen Wen said coldly to everyone, "Are you still not moving aside? I won't let you go just because you are old, weak, or disabled."
A woman stepped forward, looking at Wen Wen with disgust, and said, "You can even lay hands on an old man. Are you even human?"
Then Wen Wen punched her and knocked her down. He swung his fist and said, "You people are truly strange. If condemnation were useful, what would police officers be for?"
Next, the townsfolk one by one crowded closer to Wen Wen, and Wen Wen, regardless of whether they were old or young, dealt them a flurry of punches.
In just a few minutes, he had broken through the imposing encirclement.
Carrying Yuan Zhi and running down the street, Wen Wen shook his head and said, "Alas, I've punched them in the face, and no one resisted. Everyone in this town is the type to offer their left cheek after being slapped on the right. If those monsters were as easy to deal with, how much trouble would I save?"
"However, it's fortunate that this supernatural case is confined to only one town. If the area were larger, it would truly be a disaster. But for ancient rulers, this might be considered a divine artifact for controlling the populace."
Although the townsfolk were slow runners, wherever Wen Wen went, enthusiastic crowds would appear, looking at him with disdain, wanting to shame him to death.
At first, Wen Wen gave them a punch each to taste. Later, he became too lazy to bother. After all, besides condemnation and glaring, these people could not affect him in the slightest.
They were like mosquitoes outside a mosquito net; annoying with their buzzing, but useless if they couldn't bite.
Wen Wen chose a relatively tall building, jumped onto the rooftop, and looked down at the entire town.
Then, he took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and boosted his inspiration to its maximum. When he opened them again, the world had changed.
Gray mist drifted in the sky, and eerie shadows roamed everywhere.
Wen Wen had entered the gray fog layer!
Except for some superhumans with special abilities, most beings automatically entered the gray fog layer once their inspiration reached a certain level.
Therefore, to avoid seeing things they shouldn't, most superhumans suppressed their inspiration.
But Wen Wen wanted to see things that were normally invisible, which was why he had raised his inspiration to the maximum.
Wen Wen looked at the town. Although it was deep in the night, the town was brighter than in the daytime. On top of the church at the entrance, the stone ring behind the angel statue emitted boundless light, illuminating the entire town.
Every townsfolk, even every small animal in the town, carried this light.
Only Yuan Zhi, who was unconscious, had less obvious light, but the light on him was still subtly intensifying.
"It seems that as long as one basks in this light, one will eventually be transformed into the appearance of the townsfolk by this light."
Wen Wen began to understand the cause of the matter. So, he returned his inspiration to its normal state and used the Golden Eagle physique, spreading a pair of wings behind him, and sent Yuan Zhi to a place outside the town that was not illuminated by the light.
Since he didn't know if the effect of this light was reversible, Wen Wen didn't want to put his employer at risk.
As a detective, he still had some professional ethics.
