Mental Illness Evolution Manual - Chapter 55

The Insect Master had joined the church for several years. Compared to those church members who were obsessed with scriptures and doctrines, he cared more about himself.

Before joining the church, he wasn’t a good person either. He had hundreds of lives on his hands. Smuggling contraband weapons, drug trafficking, and robbery were the least of his crimes.

He didn’t even think robbery was illegal. Wasn’t it just a way to have fun? If he saw something he liked, he would just take it.

If the person was sensible, he would leave them alive. If they weren’t, he would kill them and then loot them.

But as the saying goes, if you walk by the river long enough, you’re bound to get your shoes wet. The Insect Master was still caught, he was caught completely by accident, he was just unlucky.

A pair of siblings sought revenge on a club, they were willing to poison the drinking water, all the guests present were affected. Fortunately, the Search Team arrived very quickly, they responded quickly, arrested the siblings, and sent all the poisoned people to the hospital for emergency treatment.

When they found the Insect Master, he was lying on two handsome boys, foaming at the mouth. The Search Team took everyone in the room away, and they didn’t forget to put clothes on them.

Many of these people were socialites, they couldn’t have any scandals.

The Insect Master had changed his face several times, at first, the team members didn’t realize that he was the notorious criminal, it was only when they went to the hospital for treatment that they realized something was wrong.

The unlucky Insect Master was imprisoned, he was just pulled out of the hospital and sent to the No Light Prison, he was also given a special collar.

He spent half a year in prison, without his psionic ability, the Insect Master was just an ordinary man, he wasn’t strong or good at fighting, and because of his overly ornate tattoos and his somewhat arrogant personality, he was fought over by several bosses.

The tables had turned. Pinned down, the Insect Master seethed with a desire to annihilate everyone present.

One day, half a year later, on a perfectly ordinary sunny day, he was taken away by the prison guards, they said someone wanted to see him.

The Insect Master asked who it was, the prison guard said in a meaningful tone, “You’ll know when you see him, behave yourself.”

The No Light Prison was specifically used to imprison psionics, it was said to be on a small island in the sea, some people also said it was underground in the Arctic, no one knew the exact location.

The prisoners here never saw the real sky, only the unchanging ceiling lights above their heads. After being locked up here for half a year, the Insect Master was almost suffering from neurasthenia, he had also lost a lot of weight.

He followed the prison guard into the elevator in silence, racking his brains to think about who could come here to find someone.

The prison guard took him to a room without a nameplate, he stood at the door and didn’t move, he raised his chin, signaling him to push the door open himself.

The Insect Master hesitated for a moment, he gritted his teeth and pushed the door open, there were no monsters or demons in the room, only a man, he was wearing a dark red robe, he was sitting on the sofa, he glanced at him, “Sit.”

Later, he learned that this person was one of the three archbishops of the Holy Healing Church.

He took the Insect Master away from the No Light Prison, the patrolling prison guards clearly saw him following this person, but no one came up to stop or question him. At that time, the Insect Master knew that this person, and the organization behind him, were people he couldn’t afford to mess with.

So, even though he was a level A psionic and had a certain privileged status in the church, he didn’t dare to have his own thoughts when facing orders from above.

Even though he was a million percent against the psionic experiments, he had to come here to guard the door obediently.

Now, the Resistance’s attack gave him an opportunity, they were able to challenge the church, they must be very powerful.

A strange light flashed in the Insect Master’s eyes, this was his escape route, this was where his life lay.

If he could help the church repel their attack, although he thought it was very unlikely, but if he really succeeded, it would be a great achievement. As for the data, of course, he would destroy it all, he would say that it was destroyed by the Resistance, no one could blame him.

If he couldn’t, if he couldn’t hold them back, he would immediately surrender, no organization would refuse a level A psionic, besides, he could also reveal a lot of what he knew about the church, as a token of his loyalty.

No matter how you calculated it, he wouldn’t lose.

“Give me the copied data.” The Insect Master called out to the doctor, whose name he had never remembered, “It’s safer with me.”

The doctor didn’t suspect anything, he handed over the chip.

They didn’t take any of the ground exits, they took a hidden safety passage.

“Redeploy those test subjects, they probably won’t be able to stay here.” The Insect Master said coldly, “It’s better to buy us some time, there’s plenty of material.”

Although the doctor was a little reluctant to part with his research results, he didn’t hesitate too much, after all, his own safety and research data were the most important.

It was just a pity that he hadn’t been able to complete all the processes, he didn’t know if these test subjects would succeed in the end, after leaving here, he would have to start over, but he wouldn’t need so many people, after all, he had already tried many times.

The doctor was a little regretful, he was distracted, thinking about where to build the next base, how many test subjects he would need, he pressed a few buttons on the control screen.

As the sound waves spread, the townspeople who had retreated rushed out one after another, they were searching for their targets on the ground.

As soon as Yan Xianchuan saw them, she was furious. She couldn’t see behind her normally, but her neck wasn’t broken, she could see everything when she turned her head.

It was green here, bald there, yellow here, and muddy there, it was uglier than a plucked chicken. It was only 12 hours, the sun was already up, it would be noon, the Transform into a Sheep spell would wear off, she would no longer be able to enjoy the closeness with Lu Mingqiu without any barriers, she wouldn’t be able to feel the other party’s subconscious gentle touch.

Who was this thanks to?

Angry people are unreasonable, and angry sheep are equally unreasonable.

Her teeth, which were used to eat grass, were grinding, they were almost sparking.

Yan Xianchuan stared at the people who were coming at her, her short tail wagged back and forth behind her.

She had killed enough people to fill several swimming pools, did she care about a few more?

Just then, several pink, dough-like, round, unidentified objects flew towards her head. Yan Xianchuan dodged to the side, a brown-skinned, black-striped tiger silently pounced from behind, its two huge, powerful claws spread open, it slammed down on her.

Yan Xianchuan immediately jumped up on the spot, the tiger’s claws hooked onto her thigh, scraping off another patch of fleece. She didn’t care about getting more angry, she adjusted her position in the air, her four hooves landed squarely on the tiger’s back, then she kicked hard, using it to jump out, she charged into the crowd again.

Whether it was the ghost-like illusions or the people with chainsaw arms, they were all crushed by her, especially the chainsaw arm, she charged towards the guy who was releasing wind blades, this person sneaked up from behind, he caused another huge amount of damage to her few remaining sheep’s fleece, her good head was directly turned into a bald head.

Although it was eventually broken by her horns, the fur that fell off wouldn’t grow back.

Yan Xianchuan was furious. She bit off half of his chainsaw arm and flung it at the others.

In her haste, she completely abandoned her plan, charging at anyone she saw, without a care. Unexpectedly, she was caught in a large, transparent spider web.

The sticky goo on the web immediately stuck to half of her body, lifting her into the air, leaving her upside down with all four legs in the air, unable to find a foothold. Then another web was thrown over her. Two large webs trapped her in between, constantly secreting paralyzing venom and releasing dizzying gas.

She stared with wide eyes as a human-bodied, spider-bellied psionic walked back and forth on the web in the air. His human-shaped upper body had a pair of human hands and a pair of spider legs, and his table-sized spider abdomen constantly spun silk at her.

The venom had no effect on Yan Xianchuan, but the web bound her. No matter how she shook or swung, she couldn’t break free. Even if she tore a piece, new silk would quickly patch it up.

There weren’t many people left alive, only a dozen or so, they all surrounded her and began to show off their skills.

Some emitted high-decibel screams, trying to deafen her ears. Some stabbed her with ice picks. Some who didn’t have any attack methods took out various tools and gathered around her to attack her.

Although Yan Xianchuan was lying on her back, she wasn’t completely defenseless. She kept twisting, kicking, and when she saw her chance, she arched her back hard, kicking several people’s chins. The force was so strong that the people who were kicked flew out with half their mouths and teeth.

As soon as the unlucky ones died, the people surrounding her immediately retreated a few steps. Yan Xianchuan quickly seized the opportunity, she shook her head hard from side to side. At this time, she could only rely on her naturally sharp horns, they were the only things that could still cut through the spider web even if they were stuck.

At the same time, she was also trying to turn her body. As long as she could turn to face forward and no longer be upside down, she could use her strength to cut through the web and break free. She could fall to the ground, instead of being able to kick off the web on her hooves, but still only be able to lie on her back.

The psionics who couldn’t attack from a distance left, there was no point in staying here. Their brains, which only had basic thinking abilities, analyzed the situation and decided to support the other directions. Only a few who could attack from a distance remained, they were still fighting Yan Xianchuan.

Meanwhile, Lu Mingqiu’s side was going smoothly. Butterfly was only responsible for cleaning up a few escaped fish in the sky. The enemies that she hadn’t seen, the vast majority of them, as long as they were within her line of sight, they all lost their lives.

The psionics controlled by the sonic waves kept coming, they kept dying, people fell down in rows, the scene wasn’t bloody, but it was even more terrifying.

She used her psionic ability on such a large scale for so long, but she didn’t show any signs of fatigue.

In terms of killing speed, even White was slightly inferior.

It didn’t take long before she had cleared out the attackers.

The church people ran away, the signal barrier also disappeared. Lu Mingqiu asked about the current situation in other directions, she learned that everything was under control, then she asked Butterfly to find Calamus and the others, she ran towards the east to support Yan Xianchuan.

She had no way to contact the other party, she couldn’t help but worry a little more.

Walnut Town, which had once been clean, was now in ruins.

Lu Mingqiu walked through the streets filled with corpses, she crossed the ruins of collapsed buildings, but unexpectedly, she saw several townspeople on the way.

Her heart sank, had something happened to Yan Xianchuan?

Otherwise, why would there be people leaving from the east, and the bloodstains on their bodies were still fresh.

Lu Mingqiu was anxious, she didn’t hesitate to deal with the few people, she ran even faster.

Walnut Town wasn’t small, even though she had been training for years, she had been running at full speed for so long, she couldn’t help but be out of breath.

But fortunately, she saw several people surrounding a white cocoon that was bulging and swaying from a distance, the tension she had been holding in her breath instantly eased.

Sweat dripped down her cheeks, Lu Mingqiu didn’t bother to wipe it, she charged straight towards the few townspeople, her mental power swept over them, everyone froze in place, and they all fell down one by one.

The cocoon they were surrounding also fell to the ground.

She took a small knife from her waist, she panted and said, “Don’t move, I’m going to cut it open.”

A baa came from inside, it really didn’t move.

Lu Mingqiu touched the web with one hand, she picked up the dagger with the other hand and cut it hard, the four sheep legs appeared first, then she continued to cut the other webs wrapped around Yan Xianchuan, she pulled the ones that were inconvenient to use the knife with her hands.

After a lot of effort, the little sheep was finally pulled out of the web, it was covered in bloodstains, and there were also some small holes that were oozing blood.

The sheep was surprisingly intact, with only superficial wounds despite its battered state. Though pitiable, Lu Mingqiu knew the person’s regenerative abilities, and these injuries would heal within a day or two.

But the other party let out a low bleat, she walked towards her, her eyes instantly froze—Yan Xianchuan’s two eyes were tightly closed, two long bloodstains flowed from under her eyelids.
