Chapter 150 Encounter with the Rain Demon
The moment the rain poured in, an extremely cold and damp feeling instantly filled the carriage.
Xu Si's starry pupils suddenly contracted as he stared intently at the rainwater seeping in through the gaps in the car window.
In his view, these seemingly ordinary raindrops actually contained extremely fine energy threads flowing within them!
If it weren't for his Star Eyes' close-up perception, he wouldn't have been able to tell at all.
There was definitely something wrong with this rain.
Alarm bells rang in Xu Si's mind!
Almost simultaneously, a rapid throbbing sensation came from the heart—"Yi Yi's" malicious perception was fully activated, a sharp warning like a needle prick!
[Level 2 Weird Detection - Rain Demon]
【Characteristics: Liquid polymerization, water vapor manipulation, environmental assimilation】
[We strongly recommend staying away from this place immediately!!!]
The moment the system warning sounded, Xu Si immediately slammed on the brakes.
"Creak—!!!"
The entire convoy stopped instantly, and Jiang Li simultaneously erected a barrier.
However, the barrier cannot block the rain.
Xu Si had just vaguely heard the sound of a vehicle collision ahead and was about to ask about it via walkie-talkie.
Unexpectedly, Li Miao's almost distorted scream immediately came through the walkie-talkie.
"The big dog is out of control! The big dog is out of control! The big dog is out of control!"
"It's not out of control, it's not out of control, there's something there!" The view from the bus up Tashan was excellent.
He saw an invisible giant hand in the rain slap the big dog away, and then the giant hand disappeared into the rain.
"It's eerie!" Wang Hu confirmed, having seen it clearly from behind the big dog SUV.
"Li Miao, how are you all doing?"
"Li Miao, how are you all doing?"
"It's okay, Xiao Luo and I are both fine, but our car's airbags deployed. The car seems drivable, but we can't see anything strange about it."
The convoy was parked quite close together, so the walkie-talkie communication was not greatly affected.
"Stay in the car and don't move!"
The strange ones are in the shadows, while they are in the light.
Fortunately, they had a barrier protecting them, although it was unclear whether the barrier could keep the strange creature out.
"You all turned off your car lights."
Xu Si was also searching for the strange location, but he didn't find anything. However, he came up with a solution.
That's luring the snake out of its hole!
His conquerors were already starving.
I won't argue with you if you provoke the big dog first.
But I've washed it all clean and laid it out in front of you. If you don't tease me, wouldn't that be a bit of a misunderstanding?
The next second, the team did not hesitate at all.
Except for Xu Si's Conqueror, all the lights on all other vehicles, whether main lights, side marker lights, or the dim light on the instrument panel, went out at the same instant.
Xu Si even pushed the conquerors back dozens of meters until the convoy completely disappeared into the darkness.
Only Xu Si's conqueror remained, as conspicuous as the sole ink spot on a blank sheet of paper.
The Conqueror's main light became the only source of light in the rain.
His "star trail" perception, like a wounded tentacle, struggled to extend in the damp, cold energy field, locking onto a fifty-meter radius around the "Conqueror".
Suddenly, the malicious sensation emanating from "Yi Yi" was like an ice pick, constantly pricking his nerves, without direction, distance, or target.
Or rather, it's right here in the rain, everywhere.
"They're here!"
A red glint flashed in Xu Si's eyes.
A semi-transparent, humanoid hand, seemingly made of rain, slapped towards his car from the left window, or rather, towards his driver's seat.
Yes, it's not about grabbing, it's about slapping.
It's like sweeping up trash off a table.
Xu Si felt no worry whatsoever; on the contrary, he was extremely excited.
……
"Bang"
The dark red car body shuddered slightly, but that was all.
The wax armor on the vehicle body is like a trap that snags its prey; the wax instantly coats upwards, trying to replicate the process and replenish itself.
However, the large hand hesitated for only a moment before turning into a puddle of rain that splashed onto the ground.
Xu Si's smile froze instantly. Xu Si could even sense that the Conqueror was also stunned for a moment before reluctantly retracting its wax armor.
Damn, the plan worked, but the vehicle malfunctioned.
The car's fuel gauge hasn't been filled at all.
What the hell is this thing?
"Environmental assimilation"—could this guy have been assimilated by this rain?
That would be troublesome.
Want to catch the rain? Use wax?
That would be rather ridiculous.
However, Xu Si could sense that the guy hadn't given up; it was waiting for the right opportunity.
This also gave Xu Si time to devise a strategy to deal with the enemy.
This guy is somewhere between the real and the unreal, so it's not like there's no way to deal with him.
Just as Xu Si's thoughts were racing, the malicious warning from "Yi Yi" exploded like ice water thrown into boiling oil!
This time, it's not a large hand anymore.
"Buzz—!"
The rain curtain within a fifty-meter radius around the conqueror seemed to be stirred by an invisible force, with countless raindrops pausing, spinning, and coalescing in the air!
In the same instant, dozens of semi-transparent arms, tentacles, and even blurry humanoid outlines made of rainwater condensed and took shape in all directions—front, back, left, right, up, and down!
This guy was clearly enraged and stopped hiding, revealing his true form.
They have no facial features, no details, only a general outline and flowing water, yet they exude a cold, damp, and malicious aura.
Xu Si felt as if he were being stared at by a living, angry Vajra.
The next second, it poured down like a torrential downpour.
All the creations of rain rushed fiercely towards the lone "Conqueror" from all directions!
"Well done!"
The crimson light in Xu Si's eyes intensified, and instead of fear, a surge of even more intense excitement welled up within him.
He flipped over and leaped onto the roof of the car; this attack certainly couldn't be taken by the Conqueror.
As he leaped onto the roof of the vehicle, he blew the Skull Raven Whistle, causing the rain-created creatures to pause for a moment, but that was all.
Xu Si was also ready at this time.
'Frost Domain'
An invisible, yet perfectly perceptible, azure-blue cold wave silently exploded in a spherical shape, centered on Xu Si!
Where the cold wave passed, the air made a fine "crackling" sound.
All the rain-born creatures that rushed toward the conqueror froze in mid-air!
Immediately, a thin, crystalline layer of frost condenses on their surface, and the rainwater flowing inside becomes sluggish, slow, and freezes.
Xu Si's real target was the energy core of the Rain Demon. All the rain in the field transformed into the Rain Demon's true form, giving Xu Si the opportunity to see its energy core clearly.
Meanwhile, Xu Si, clinging to those rain-created creatures, had already placed his palm on the body of the Rain Demon, or more precisely, on its energy core.
There was no chance for the rain demon to disintegrate and assimilate.
"Click..."
Almost instantly, the Rain Demon's energy core was frozen, and then the freezing spread to its entire body.
In just a few breaths, the Rain Demon transformed into a twisted and enormous ice sculpture, reflecting an eerie blue light under the headlights of the Conqueror.
Xu Si never expected that he would actually be able to capture a strange creature alive.
Feeling the surging, damp energy flow within the ice sculpture, Xu Si didn't hesitate for a moment.
They launched the Conquerors directly at them.
The wax began to coat the entire ice sculpture, and the thorough absorption began.
Seemingly in retaliation for its previous defeat, this time the devouring was particularly swift, and the strange creature trapped in the ice sculpture had no power to resist.
