Chapter 345 Extraordinary
"Fuck, Chen Ke... What the hell is this!? I still have a wife and a child! I'm suddenly not a human?!" Parker cried and paced back and forth.
"This... This is fate! Parker, this is your power!" Chen Ke didn't know how to comfort him. After all, his body was not normal, and he had long been accustomed to it.
"What kind of power is this... It's just turning into a ball of ash... I want to turn back to my original appearance... The research institute must have a way, right?" Parker looked at Wang Ailin, and the expression on his face made people reluctant to refuse.
"I don't know, it takes time to study, we have to figure out the definition of your state first..." Wang Ailin shook her head and said with a complicated expression.
"Calm down, Parker, try to control your power freely first..." Chen Ke comforted.
"I don't want to turn into ash again!" Parker roared, his mentality has already shown some signs of collapse.
"Parker, do as I say, I have this experience..." Chen Ke looked at Parker with a firm look in his eyes, giving people a very reliable feeling.
In fact, Chen Ke didn't know if he could freely switch between the two forms of human and ash.
Just now, he reached out and touched the ashes to restore Parker to human form, but he was just trying it out. After all, Faralis was resurrected by his own touch.
"I don't know, what if I can't change back?" Parker asked.
Chen Ke looked around, picked up a thermos cup from the side, and poured out all the water in it.
"I will take you away... and I will definitely find a way to change you back." Chen Ke promised.
Parker looked at Chen Ke, and at that moment, Parker's eyes were like an orphan.
"Try it quickly... There's nothing wrong with turning into ashes. It's much better than having a countdown in your head." Chen Ke said.
This reminded him of his experience more than two months ago. His heart hurt as if it was dug out. When he woke up, he was alone, and his chest was pierced by a dagger.
"I don't want to turn into ashes... Chen Ke." Parker still couldn't accept it, and he was struggling and resisting deep in his heart.
"Parker, this is your fate. It chose you. Now you can only accept it. There is no other way." Chen Ke said seriously.
Parker felt that what Chen Ke said made sense. He stood there and made a preparatory movement. In fact, he didn't know what to do.
"Either accept and adapt as soon as possible, or be sliced and intubated. It's up to you." Chen Ke said.
"Logically, you should be locked up in a containment facility, but there are not many normal people in the institute now. Maybe you can really go out with us." Wang Ailin said.
Parker clenched his fists and closed his eyes. His mind was full of thoughts, but as Chen Ke said, this was fate. Since fate had found him, he could only accept it.
"Then... let's do this!" Parker gritted his teeth.
The color of his clothes, skin and other things on his body slowly turned black, and his black body began to turn into countless gray-white ashes, circling around him.
"You are flying now... Parker!" Wang Ailin widened her eyes, wrote quickly on the notebook, and took a lot of photos with her mobile phone.
Parker looked down and saw that his legs had completely turned into ashes, but he still maintained the height of standing. In fact, he was indeed flying.
"Stay focused, don't panic, do you feel anything strange now?" Chen Ke asked.
"No... I feel... good! I can still feel my hands, but they... are not hands..." Parker said, raising his hands, and his hands completely turned into flying ashes.
Parker looked at the book on the table beside him, and a stream of ashes separated from his body, wrapped around the book, and then rolled in front of him.
Parker tried to flip through the book, and the ashes were as flexible as fingers, turning the book page by page.
"Let yourself turn completely into ashes, and then hover on the ceiling, and see if you can do it." Chen Ke said, his face was tense, and he looked at Parker nervously.
"I'll try..." Parker said.
He closed his eyes and let the rest of his human body change form. His clothes and skin slowly turned black, and then turned into large balls of ashes.
In front of Chen Ke, Parker completely turned into a large ball of ashes swirling in the air.
"Try to hover!" Chen Ke said.
When he turned into flying ashes, Parker couldn't speak, but he could still hear Chen Ke's voice.
As if responding to Chen Ke, the large ball of ash curled up into a ball, rolled several times in front of Chen Ke, and then formed a stream and rushed to the ceiling.
Because the ash ball Parker turned into was too large, once it stretched out, it covered the entire ceiling, a dark mass, like black moss, even the incandescent light on the ceiling was blocked, and the room became much darker.
Chen Ke looked at Parker nervously, leaving Wang Ailin beside him confused. She didn't know what Chen Ke was panicking about.
"Okay... change back, Parker, change back..." Chen Ke said.
Parker was still on the ceiling, a large piece of gray curtain, with layers of ripples on the surface, looking very strange.
"Look, the color of this gray is constantly changing, between gray and black in different color ranges, as if it is breathing!" Wang Ailin looked up and widened her eyes in surprise. This was a scene she had never seen before.
"Parker!" Chen Ke shouted.
The ash gathered into a ball, and then, like sand in an hourglass, it instantly poured onto the floor, piling up a pile of ash more than one meter high.
This pile of ash ignored gravity and only maintained a human-shaped range, constantly piling up, and soon gathered into a height of one person.
Then the black ash slowly changed color and took shape, and Parker's facial features, limbs, and clothes all changed.
"It's done... I can now... change freely?" Parker said in surprise, looking at his hands in disbelief.
Chen Ke's tense expression finally relaxed.
"Very good, from now on, I will call you Mr. Ashes." Chen Ke let out a long breath and laughed.
"Huh? What does this mean?" Wang Ailin asked puzzled.
"Do you read superhero comics? The rich rely on technology, the poor rely on mutations. Obviously, Parker has the superpower of turning into ash." Chen Ke laughed.
"I don't think I'm a superhero. I just want to leave here, the farther the better, and never be an investigator again." Parker said, patting the ash on his clothes, not realizing that it was also a part of himself.
This psychological reaction is normal, and so is Chen Ke, because they both realize that their abilities and psychic powers are two different things...
When Chen Ke first crossed over, his mood and experience were similar to Parker's now. All kinds of inexplicable things happened in front of him, and his body also underwent tremendous changes.
But Parker has Chen Ke's guidance, while Chen Ke can only rely on himself.
"I suggest you stay away from vacuum cleaners in the future. Maybe the threat of that thing is greater than that of S-level demon spirits." Chen Ke said.
"Thank you, Chen Ke, I almost collapsed just now...Although it's not particularly good now, at least I won't cause you trouble..." Parker said.
"It's nothing, I can only do this step, let you accept your fate, but what you do after that...it all depends on you..." Chen Ke waved his hand.
Parker's ability is the same as his own, and has nothing to do with psychic power. Chen Ke's murderous aura, time and other abilities are not included in the six categories and eighteen psychic attributes. What exactly is that? He doesn't know.
But at least, Chen Ke knows one thing, Parker's current changes are positive.
Because in his vision, Parker, who had just condensed into dust, was always in a state of "alienation".
At that time, Chen Ke was very nervous because he had seen the behavior of starving ghosts distorted by psychic energy.
But when Parker was able to switch freely between the two forms of gray and human, his alienation level finally became extraordinary!
