"Father" Alex completely ignored what Shang Jianyao was saying. After rolling to a corner beyond Jiang Baimian's line of fire, he immediately responded.

The strange ornament woven from black hair on his right wrist suddenly lit up with a fire-like glow.

— Through the previous few shots, he had roughly grasped Jiang Baimian's position, confirming that she was within the coverage of this "Ring of Blindness."

And relying on the "Ring of Blindness" he had named, Alex could sense the human consciousness at that distance, locking onto the corresponding target.

In an instant, Jiang Baimian, who had climbed up a roadside tree, found her vision plunged into darkness, unable to see anything.

Immediately afterward, "Father" Alex's eyes became deep, and he once again used the Awakened ability "Dream Journey" on Shang Jianyao.

But this time, the purpose of his use of this ability was neither to rehearse, nor to delay time, approach the target, or tamper with memories, but to use it to disguise a fake version of himself, while covering up his own human consciousness.

Then, he could maintain the effect of "Dream Journey" while distracting Zhang Quibing, and sneak away from another location.

His "Dream Journey" could cover a range of more than thirty meters, enough for him to create a safe distance and gain a chance to escape.

This was his tried-and-true escape method.

Therefore, he began to suspect that as soon as he saw Zhang Quibing, he was affected by some ability of his, becoming very affected and sentimental, wanting to maintain his demeanor and leave in a grand manner, rather than fleeing in embarrassment. Thus, he chose to use "Dream Journey" to conceal himself, quietly approach the other party, tamper with his memories, and facilitate his own leisurely departure.

If he had adopted the old method at that time, "Father" Alex felt that he should have initially escaped his predicament by now.

In the next second, Shang Jianyao sensed a human consciousness bypassing him, rushing towards the exit of the alley.

That outside was the Red Wolf Zone!

He immediately took off his sunglasses and saw the back of "Father" running away in large strides.

And with "Father's" physical fitness, Shang Jianyao seriously considered whether to give him a ten-meter head start.

At the same time, the real "Father" Alex quietly returned to the previous apartment along the route he had just come from.

He only dared to jog now, fearing that he would not be able to maintain the effect of "Dream Journey".

Suddenly, he felt a heat in his chest, as if sensing something, and without thinking, he lunged to the side, rolling into a ball.

Bang!

Another bullet flew by, scattering stone chips on the ground.

How could this be? "Father" Alex was shocked.

He was clearly still maintaining the "Blindness" effect, so why could the sniper aim at him?

Was this still a human?

Could it be that the robot was hiding next to the target consciousness?

"Father" couldn't think too much. While relying on objects, he maintained the "Dream Journey" and "Blindness" effects, rolling and running, sometimes left and sometimes right, towards his destination.

During this process, he relied on the "Bodhi Bead" on his chest to sense the danger in advance, making timely dodges several times.

For him, whose physical condition was not very good to begin with, this was simply an unspeakable journey of suffering.

Finally, the side door of the apartment was only a few meters away.

But at this moment, "Father" Alex's gaze froze once again.

A silver-black robot in dark green military uniform rushed out of the doorway, its eyes shining red, its fist hard and strong.

Genaver, who was assigned to the farthest exit, had also arrived!

Seeing this, "Father" Alex no longer had any illusions. He gritted his teeth and raised his left hand.

The glass bead ring on his little finger suddenly burst out with a pure, bright light.

Along with this light, the ring itself also differentiated, splitting into two.

One of the rings was very real, without any change, and the other became illusory, melting little by little into the air.

And Genaver ignored this scene, bypassed "Father" Alex, and chased towards the alley exit.

The environmental information he had collected told him that the real "Father" was running in that direction!

The surrounding electromagnetic signals were being interfered with!

This was "Father" Alex's trump card against robots.

—He knew from "Shepherd" Bu Yong that there were more than just one or two areas in the "Mind Corridor" level Awakened who could affect electromagnetic signals.

This was actually a relatively broad basic ability.

"Shepherd" Bu Yong said that after entering the "Mind Corridor", according to their respective fields, the Awakened would be divided into two major "camps", each gaining a basic ability.

These two basic abilities were "interfering with electromagnetic signals" and "interfering with physical matter".

And the Awakened in the "Doomsday Man" field gained the former.

At the same time, according to "Shepherd" Bu Yong, after exploring the depths of the "Mind Corridor", those powerful Awakened might possess both.

Just now, "Father" Alex completely "burned" the ring bestowed by "Shepherd" Bu Yong, and stimulated all the remaining aura of the "Mind Corridor" level Awakened in the "Doomsday Man" field inside, in order to distort the various electrical signals in this alley within a certain period of time.

This would cause the ring to completely revert to an ordinary item.

Without any heartache, "Father" Alex quickened his pace and rushed straight to the side door of the apartment.

In the next second, a gust of wind whizzed past his ear, and a figure rushed past him like a race, blocking the doorway.

Shang Jianyao was back again.

This..."Father" had the urge to vomit blood.

Shang Jianyao was not wearing sunglasses this time. He turned his body, held the "Fate Bead" in one hand, and waved the other out.

At the same time, he let out a chuckle:

"Are you stupid? Gunshots kept ringing out here, how could I not guess that the real you wanted to escape in the opposite direction? With your physical fitness, it's too difficult for you to climb over the high walls on both sides.

"So, there's only one answer..."

"Father" Alex certainly wouldn't say that if he hadn't been affected by the sniper and unable to wholeheartedly maintain "Dream Journey", you wouldn't have heard the gunshots outside the illusion.

Facing the fist Shang Jianyao swung over, "Father" Alex subconsciously wanted to dodge and parry.

However, his hands only reached halfway before they stopped, as if he had forgotten how to do the corresponding actions.

And at this time, "Father" Alex also sensed that if he dodged to the right, he would likely encounter fatal danger.

That was obviously from the distant gunman.

Why could she still aim? What exactly did I do wrong? While "Father" Alex roared inwardly, he could only force himself to lower his body and dodge to the left.

Unfortunately, he was too slow, as if he was reaching up himself, using his face to receive Shang Jianyao's punch.

Bang!

Alex only felt stars flashing before his eyes, and he involuntarily spat out several teeth with blood.

After the sound of the gun, he stumbled almost horizontally to his right.

"Father" Alex didn't bother to care about the swelling of his face. As soon as he landed, he continued to roll, trying to bypass Shang Jianyao and enter the apartment.

From the "Wolf's Den" incident, he saw that the current enemies were too kind and too benevolent, believing that this was something that could be exploited.

Once he entered the apartment, if there was no way to escape, he planned to use the "hostage tactic".

Shang Jianyao didn't give the real "Father" this opportunity at all. With a nimble turn of his body, he blocked Alex outside the door again.

This also led to him and "Father" making eye contact.

The real "Father" used "Hypnotism" as if it was instinctive, causing deep, illusory small vortexes to appear in his eyes.

Shang Jianyao was immediately stunned.

However, his hands were raised, as if another personality was commanding him.

And unlike before, he had already stuffed the "Fate Bead" back into his pocket, holding "Icetrap" in one hand and "Union 202" in the other.

Two dark muzzles were aimed at "Father's" body and "Father's" left side respectively.

The right side was left for Jiang Baimian.

This was something they had paid special attention to during training.

Seeing this scene, "Father" Alex could not restrain the emotion of annoyance:

"I'm so stupid, really..."

He clearly knew that the man opposite him could be immune to "Hypnotism" to a certain extent, and it would take five or even ten times the normal time to affect him, but he couldn't help but use "Hypnotism" just now.

This reminded him of Zhang Quibing's words after blocking him, "Are you stupid?", suspecting that he had been affected by the other party's ability again at that time.

At this moment, he could sense that going to the right was the most dangerous, staying in place or going back or to the left would cause injuries but might not be fatal.

And he only had these three choices.

In a flash of thought, "Father" Alex revealed a contemptuous smile.

He chose right.

At the same time, he fully activated the "Bodhi Bead" hanging on his chest.

For "Father", either he wouldn't be able to block it and would be killed on the spot, or he would forcibly break out a path, and would never accept being captured.

His pride did not allow him to do so, and did not allow himself to fall into the hands of ordinary Doomsday Men.

Bang!

Jiang Baimian sensed the change in the target's bioelectrical signal position and pulled the trigger.

The bullet from the "Orange" rifle instantly hit the real "Father", but his body seemed to have an invisible barrier, blocking the bullet from the outside.

This barrier only lasted for a second before it shattered silently, and the bullet finally pierced into "Father" Alex's body.

In the other two gunshots, large amounts of blood splattered.

After all, it's not a real "Mind Corridor" level... Alex fell down, and such a thought flashed in his mind.

After he fell to the ground with a thud, he saw Shang Jianyao quickly approaching and heard him shout anxiously:

"Hold on."

..."Father" Alex was at a loss, Shang Jianyao took out the "Fate Bead":

"I haven't looked through your memories yet!"

Hearing these words, "Father" felt greatly insulted, and in the next second, he saw himself in Shang Jianyao's eyes:

An ordinary, seriously injured and dying person at the mercy of others.
