Super Mechanic: The God of Superpowers!

Chapter 164 Fording Joins

boom!
The gray-white shock wave tore through the walls, sending concrete fragments and metal frames scattering everywhere, and the air was filled with pungent dust.

A gap with a diameter of three meters suddenly appeared in the hotel's outer wall. Hundreds of meters below, dense floating traffic flowed between the buildings like glowing blood vessels.

Ye Xiu grabbed the fighter plane and jumped down from the air, accurately piercing through the roof of a hovercraft.

The driver didn't even have time to say "What are you doing" before he was slapped unconscious and thrown into the back seat.

The moment his fingertips touched the steering wheel, Ye Xiu immediately climbed.

The next second, the hovercraft suddenly lifted up and left the traffic-planned aerial track, and then hovered outside the breach in the hotel.

"Bah-bah!"

The car door popped open with a crisp sound.

"come on in!"

Everyone rushed in.

At the same time, the shrill sound of sirens came from three directions.

In the rearview mirror, five blue and white police cars were deployed in a fan-shaped formation - the security system of the top hotel really responded quickly.

Caroline spun around and slashed out with a crescent-shaped sword energy, and the air wave knocked the guard over several meters.

The moment he used the force to break the ground, his figure streaked across the sky like a cannonball and fell precisely into the gap in the roof. The metal frame groaned under the heavy weight.

Ye Xiu glanced at the rearview mirror to confirm that everyone was there, then suddenly pushed the propel lever to the bottom and started directly in sixth gear.

The car body vibrated violently and rushed forward, like a steel behemoth breaking free from its chains and tearing a gap in the three-dimensional transportation network.

Six pursuit units with flashing red and blue police lights surrounded the vehicle from different heights, but they kept missing due to the three-dimensional maneuvering trajectory.

When the two interceptors tried to form a pincer attack from above, the silver-gray vehicle body suddenly emerged from the gap at a 45-degree angle, and the metal shell rubbed against the bottom of the overpass, splashing dazzling sparks.

After receiving careful training from Master Han, Ye Xiaoshuai has become an experienced driver.

The violent jolt made the metal supports in the car whine. Caroline had just grabbed the handrail when she was thrown against the cabin wall by inertia, and her lower back hit the emergency medical kit hard.

She clenched her teeth and swallowed the sour taste in her throat, afraid that she would spit it out if she opened her mouth.

From the corner of his eye, he saw a pale blue halo surrounding Aroshia, and her energy-state body was swaying with the car like ripples on water.

A suppressed retching sound came from the corner. Aurora curled up in the seat belt, her pale profile revealed among her messy blonde hair.

The girl, who had not yet fully woken up, was thrown into the abyss of coma by a new round of centrifugal force.

"Stop immediately! Otherwise we will take compulsory measures!" The horn of Jin Yong's hovercraft issued an ultimatum.

Ye Xiu chuckled, and suddenly turned the joystick in the opposite direction, and the rear thrusters of the car spewed out a blue tail flame.

With a teeth-grinding sound of metal scraping, the police car closest to the pursuit spun and crashed into the aerial billboard, and a cry of "Yamidie" came from the loudspeaker.

Ye Xiu felt no pressure in dealing with this group of local police officers.

Soon, when the pursuit alarm turned into a shrill long sound, the scratched hovercraft was already quietly lurking in the shadow of the Twin Towers.

The white mist rising from the rooftop cooling vents blends quietly with the morning mist between the buildings.

"vomit--"

Hila leaned against the car window and retched for a while. After finally recovering, she leaned against the seat and gasped for breath, asking:

"Ye Xiu, what happened just now?"

She was completely devastated at the moment. How could the originally agreed commission settlement suddenly turn into a city-wide manhunt?
What's even more outrageous is that they kidnapped an interstellar superstar.

Are you going to heaven?!

Ye Xiu adjusted his sitting position and looked back, seeing several people huddled together in the back seat.

He pushed aside Jason Wood's legs that were lying across the aisle and tapped Morning Star's bloodstained forehead. "This is the guy I'm looking for. He's more than meets the eye."

“Your words are so timely! Otherwise, I wouldn’t have realized that a B-class telekineticist is such a powerful character!” Hela’s back teeth clattered.

Jason Wood clutched his seatbelt in worry, "This is the New Feilan Alliance's territory. Our mercenary group's reputation is going to be ruined here!"

"Not to mention that the kidnapped person is a public figure under the protection of the Alliance's Public Security Bureau."

"Don't panic." Ye Xiu raised his chin towards the unconscious Chen Xing, "This person involved will help us clarify the matter."

“Threats? I don’t think it will work.” Hela’s face was filled with distrust.

"No need to threaten him." Ye Xiu raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "He will cooperate on his own initiative."

As he said this, he pulled the person out from the pile of seats and threw him on the passenger seat, then took out a wet towel and wiped the blood stains on the person's face.

Chen Xing's originally delicate face was now covered with bruises, and she no longer had the glamorous look she had on stage.

"You were a bit too harsh," Ye Xiu said softly, poking his swollen cheek with his fingertips, "What a shame for such a handsome face."

pop- pop-

A sharp slap served as a wake-up call.

As the thick eyelashes trembled, the eyes slowly opened, and the pupils showed a clarity that was completely different from before.

The young man sat upright, and his aura suddenly changed - if he was previously androgynous, he now exuded a sharp masculinity.

"Nice to meet you." Chen Xing turned around and smiled calmly, his voice low and gentle. "Although your methods were a bit rough, I want to thank you for allowing me to see the light of day again."

“You?” Hela was dumbfounded.

Morning Star nodded in greeting, "Nice to meet you. I'm Audrian Kevinson Fording."

"Don't be surprised. This body originally belonged to me. As for the 'Morning Star' you're familiar with, he was just an ungracious guest."

Multiple personalities? Schizophrenia? Poor acting?

Or is it simply a disease?

Everyone looked at each other.

"Spiritual host." Ye Xiu said lightly.

A look of surprise flashed across Fording's eyes. He hadn't expected the other party to see through such a secret. No wonder he attacked. "Your Excellency has an extraordinary eye."

He looked at the mercenary leader thoughtfully, "I just don't know why the Alien Mercenary Group would wade into this mess."

"It turns out to be a spiritual host." Caroline suddenly realized and hurriedly explained the principle to her companions.

Just as martial artists temper their bodies, telekineticists focus on tempering their minds and souls.

Higher-level beings can extract consciousness from their original bodies and implant it into the spiritual realm of other living beings to regain new life.

This is usually the last resort in desperate situations.

Consciousness separation will cause permanent damage to the soul, with a success rate of only 0.3%, and failure will result in the annihilation of spiritual intelligence.

No one would want to replace their original body unless it was absolutely necessary.

Chenxing is an example. As a woman, how could she possibly want to change to a man with a penis?

A telekineticist will never choose a host whose mental power is stronger than his own.

After the parasitism is completed, the original owner's consciousness will be imprisoned in a mental cage.

Although they retain sensory perception, they lose control of their bodies, like a bystander trapped inside a body.

The severely injured Morning Star's consciousness was weakened, and he could only curl up deep in his brain to recuperate, which allowed Fording to take over control of his body.

Ye Xiu's attack was intended to force out Fording's true form. Accurately attacking Morning Star's consciousness was obviously more effective than seriously injuring his body.

After listening to Caroline's brief explanation, everyone finally understood what happened.

Hela asked curiously, "When exactly were you parasitized?"

"The last time I took control of my body?" Fording looked at his watch. "Four years, nine months, and fourteen days. To be exact, that's eight hours and twenty-four minutes."

"Five years ago," Caroline's eyes flickered. "Isn't this the timeline of Morning Star's debut?"

"That's right." Fording's tone was as calm as if he was telling someone else's story.

"I originally lived on a remote colony planet in the Broken Star Ring. Although it was considered a place of exile, I enjoyed a primitive life of farming and hunting."

"Until one day, an escape pod crashed into my vegetable garden, bringing with it the dying Morning Star."

"She took over my body while she was dying and used my identity to become a star."

Ye Xiu thought to himself that Chen Xing's strength had greatly decreased because his soul had been separated, causing his mental power to collapse.

She had originally touched the threshold of A-level, but after changing her body, she almost fell to C-level, which is why she needed to collect sacrificial items to restore her strength.

It is worth noting that by looking at the other party's panel.

Ye Xiu discovered that the aura of luck surrounding Fording was even more impressive than that of Jason Wood.

This setting of a powerful person living in the body seems to be a standard feature of the protagonist favored by fate.

It’s just that other people usually have an old man living in their bodies, but Fording has a young lady living in his body. People are just different.

If it weren't for the appearance of Morning Star, Fording would have such a Buddhist and casual attitude towards life.

I'm afraid that I will never take the initiative to explore the potential dormant in my body and will remain an ordinary person all my life.

Although Morning Star temporarily occupied his body, it also started an unknown journey for him.

Otherwise, how could Fording have discovered his talent as deep as the ocean?
And later, Fording suppressed Morning Star and regained the initiative in the body.

This character carries a very profound growth narrative - [The Legend of the Singer]!
When it comes to the value of the halo of a top protagonist, Fording at his peak is comparable to Hela.

His soul chants do not need any medium to be transmitted, but resonate directly in the hearts of the listeners.

The ethereal singing voice can cleanse the violence and restlessness in the soul, just like penetrating the morning mist in the forest.

Just like the raindrops blurring the surface of the lake, no matter how turbulent the waves are, they will eventually return to tranquility, leaving only the pure joy of new buds breaking through the soil.

On the edge of the interstellar battlefield, a song of cessation of war—this is the legend of Fording that has been recorded in the history of the stars.

"I can help you regain control of your body and eliminate the uninvited guests in your consciousness space. Once she fully recovers, the dominant position will change hands again." Ye Xiu threw out his chips.

Fording was unmoved: "What's the price? I don't believe in free aid." "You should be aware of Morning Star's financial account. I want the inar she has accumulated over the years." Ye Xiu made up a seemingly reasonable excuse.

What he really wants is naturally the potential of becoming a future giant.

But being frank at this moment would only arouse vigilance, and the character of a greedy mercenary would be more convincing.

This statement instantly gained Fording's approval.

It is natural for mercenaries to seek wealth, not to mention that the essence of this action is to help the host eliminate the parasite, which is completely in line with interstellar employment regulations.

There is no psychological burden in paying with the Morningstar account. After all, I have been using his body to carry out activities all these years.

"The plan is feasible, but instant payment may be difficult to achieve." Fording smiled bitterly and pointed to his temple.

"That woman just issued a warning. If you touch her savings, her spiritual sea will explode."

"I cannot cash my reward until the hidden dangers are completely resolved."

There was a gleam in Ye Xiu's eyes. He had predicted Chen Xing's possible reaction when he made the request, and the result was just as expected.

He was secretly delighted and nodded in agreement: "You must stay by my side at all times, so that I can suppress the backlash of Morning Star in time until we find a complete solution."

Fording hesitated slightly and said, "Can you save her life? She was forced to stay with me back then."

"Although she has been shielded from my perception for the past five years in the consciousness dimension, I have read through all of her memories. She is a pitiful person."

Before he even finished speaking, he attracted everyone's attention. After all, ordinary people would want to get rid of the possessed person as soon as possible. This kind of mind of repaying evil with kindness is indeed rare.

"Okay." Ye Xiu nodded.

After reaching an agreement, Jason Wood interjected at the right time: "The most urgent task is to lift the arrest warrant, and you need to come forward in person to clarify."

"Okay." Fording responded gently, glancing at the bruised face in the mirror and adding:

"But you need to rest for a while. I'm afraid it's hard to convince others with this appearance."

……

The area outside the hotel was already bustling with activity. A few hours ago, breaking news was being broadcast via a holographic projection:

"This morning, the famous singer Morning Star disappeared in an attack on the New Feilan 8 colony. The party involved is an alien mercenary group affiliated with Longtan Floating Island."

The various interstellar media were like Leviathans that had smelled blood, parking their hovering interview vehicles densely outside the cordon.

What was originally an ordinary public security case instantly turned into a public opinion storm because it involved an interstellar superstar and a well-known mercenary group.

There are more than ten bizarre speculations circulating among the people, including conspiracy theories, love-hate theories, and political and business scandals.

Morning Star's huge fan base has created a huge wave on the Star Network.

The local police station has long been exhausted from responding to the situation, and the inquiry letter from the Central Public Security Bureau has made the police chief feel uneasy and overwhelmed.

Just as public opinion continued to ferment, a dramatic turn suddenly occurred - Chenxing appeared together with the so-called "kidnappers".

The moment Fording stepped out of the hovercraft, the media swarmed over and the sheriffs hurriedly formed a human wall.

Not far away, Ye Xiu and others' vehicles were also surrounded by police armored vehicles, and the flashing police lights turned the scene into a sea of ​​red and blue.

After convincing Fording, Ye Xiu signaled Aurora to use her supernatural powers to repair Fording's facial injuries.

As the supernatural power took effect, the young man's slightly pale face gradually regained its former charm. Although there was still some fatigue, his handsome appearance was restored.

Compared to the androgynous and gentle temperament of the morning star.

At this moment, Fording, who was in control of the body, was surrounded by a gentle aura like spring breeze and rain, making people feel like they were basking in the warm sunshine.

Facing the media cameras, Fording responded calmly.

Over the years, I have been trapped in the depths of my consciousness and have watched Morning Star's actions. Although I have not experienced them personally, I am already familiar with them in my heart.

In other words, you may not have eaten pork, but you have seen pigs run.

Five years ago, he was still naive, but now the experience and memory accumulated by Morning Star have become his confidence to be at ease.

Although the police and reporters had doubts about this statement, the incident was eventually resolved after the person involved personally clarified it.

The sheriff gave a few routine warnings and led the team away, and the reporters also dispersed in disappointment.

The hotel manager then demanded compensation for the damage to the exterior wall, and Ye Xiu readily paid the money.

At the same time, he woke up the unconscious hovercraft driver and gave him an extra 20 Enas as compensation for repairing the car.

Just as Ye Xiu was about to talk to Fording, Morning Star's agent suddenly appeared in the middle.

The purple-skinned Duna girl's almond-shaped eyes widened as she sternly shouted, "Mercenaries are not welcome here! Please leave immediately!"

As a core member of Morning Star's self-built team, she and many female assistants are fanatically loyal to their idol.

Fording cleared his throat at the right moment and announced, "I have something to announce. First, all touring plans must be cancelled. Clear your schedule."

"Understood!" The agent hurriedly wrote down the details. When she looked up, she met Fording's gaze. Violet's cheeks flushed instantly, and she lowered her head in bewilderment.

"Secondly," Fording's warm smile was like the sun in March, "I will suspend my acting career and go with them."

"Okay, what did you say?!" The agent suddenly looked up, staring at Ye Xiu with tears in his eyes as if he was looking at a villain who stole someone's love, even with hatred.

"Sorry, I guess you should find another job." Fording stroked her head gently.

The girl who was on edge just now suddenly became as docile as a cat, sobbing and hugging the assistants who gathered around her, crying her eyes out.

The girls looked at Ye Xiu with hostility in their eyes, but when they turned to Feidin, their eyes turned into tenderness and they rushed forward to hug him.

The scene was like a group of infatuated people who had suffered a collective heartbreak but were willing to make it happen.

The corner of Ye Xiu's mouth twitched slightly. Although his charm value was very high, it was far better than that of Master Han.

But compared to Fording, there is still a slight gap.

If good looks can lead to multi-faceted development, then Fording at least has the qualifications to be a leader.

It turns out that people with high charm can do whatever they want.

You are awesome.

After disbanding the team and directing everyone to evacuate, Fording ignored the roar of Morning Star in his mind and walked straight towards Ye Xiu, spreading his palms.

"Now that you have your hands free, tell me about your plan?"

Ye Xiu's eyes flickered slightly, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he waited patiently for 0.3 seconds.

Sure enough, a new task prompt popped up in front of me:

[Congratulations on triggering the hidden mission - [Choice]!]
[Mission Introduction: You carefully discovered that Morning Star is actually a spiritual host, and thus recognized the original owner of this body [Fordin].]
[Quest Completion Condition 1: Expel or kill Morning Star's consciousness;]
[Quest Completion Condition 2: Expel or kill Fording's consciousness;]
[Quest Completion Condition 3: Have Fording and Morningstar reach a reconciliation, with both parties taking turns controlling the body;]
[Task completion condition 4: unknown;]
--------

When Ye Xiu heard this, he naturally had a plan in mind, which was the fourth completion condition.

Although it is "unknown", he actually knows it very clearly and it only takes a little time to complete it.

It is just right to arrange Jason Wood to be responsible for Fording's security. This guy's fighting ability is mediocre, so he can play another role.

When everyone arrived at the dock airport, Fording, who had dealt with the follow-up matters, had regained his freedom.

As the spaceship's gangway descended, Ye Xiu noticed that Fording was still standing on the ground, sizing up the outline of the ship with a complicated gaze.

"Stop being dazed and come up quickly." Ye Xiu urged.

"Okay..." As the metal stairs trembled slightly, Fording felt the long-lost sense of control over his body.

The experience of having complete control over the body for the first time in five years was both unfamiliar and nostalgic. The consciousness of the Morning Star in my mind was temporarily silent, and I was focusing on healing my hidden injuries.

Boarding the ship means starting a new journey. The difference is that this time you are no longer a bystander, but the helmsman of your destiny.

For him, who loves nature, it was a strange thing to board an interstellar spaceship and work with mercenaries.

Even trying to develop the potential of telekinesis, this transformation seemed like a dream.

The turning point of his fate began with the crash of the spaceship five years ago, which completely overturned the life trajectory he had originally planned:

Live with pets in the wilderness, go on hunting adventures in youth, retire to the countryside in old age, and finally sleep peacefully by the fire.

Although my current life is not what I wanted, it unexpectedly aroused some expectations.

Just as he was about to board the ship, a large number of media reporters suddenly rushed over from a distance.

"Morning Star, are you being coerced?"

"Don't worry, tell us. We will protect you."

The movement of Morning Star, which had lost the control of its assistant team, coupled with the previous rumors of suspected kidnapping, made this group of practitioners with a keen sense of smell frantically chase hot spots.

Faced with the constant wave of questioning, Fording struggled to break through the wall of people and rushed up the gangway. Ye Xiu stepped aside at the right time to let him pass.

The unwilling reporters tried to board the ship by force and even started pushing Ye Xiu who was trying to stop them.

boom!
An invisible force shock wave suddenly spread!

The media personnel gathered on the gangway were suddenly thrown away and rolled to the ground like chess pieces swept by an invisible hand.

Amidst the cries of pain, the embarrassed group of reporters stood up, rubbing their bruised knees.

At this time, they finally realized that the man leaning against the cabin door in front of them was a battle-hardened mercenary.

Therefore, I dare not approach rashly.

Ye Xiu glanced down indifferently, and the metal hatch closed with the sound of hydraulic pressure.

The thrusters emitted a blue tail flame, and the spacecraft slowly left the atmosphere of the colony star.

The starlight outside the porthole was sparse. Inside the main cabin of the bridge, Hela pressed her five fingers against the back of Fording's neck.

A dark red energy visible to the naked eye rippled above the latter's head, lasting for several minutes before gradually dissipating.

"The mind cage is almost complete." Hela wiped the sweat from her forehead. "The four-layer mind maze, combined with the hypnotic suggestion of cognitive retardation, can trap Morning Star for at least fifteen days."

Fording nodded and said, "She is now greeting you about your family tree in every language I can think of. It seems to be having a significant effect."

Ye Xiu came over and patted Hila's shoulder, saying, "Are you tired?"

Seeing this slightly intimate action, Hela's face suddenly turned slightly red. Without saying a word, she glared at Ye Xiu and walked to the window.
