Anomaly: I Seek Survival in the Apocalypse

In the year 2048, following the fall of a meteorite to Earth, an unknown gas was emitted. Subsequently, species globally began to mutate, and humanity was no longer at the apex of the food chain. C...

Chapter 138 Sea Clan

"We are just two ordinary people who want to survive in this apocalypse."

Wang Lan stepped in front of Sun Muchen and said, "That Vajra Umbrella is a keepsake left to us by my mother, and that longbow was something we obtained by chance while fleeing. As for why we came here... do you think this was our own choice?"

"Oh…"

The man sneered, moved swiftly, and appeared directly beside the two, scrutinizing them closely.

At the same time, Wang Lan was also carefully observing him.

The man was over two meters tall, upright and robust, with a full beard that exuded a commanding presence. Just by standing there, he emanated an invisible sense of oppression, which instilled fear in Wang Lan.

Depend on!

Wang Lan cursed inwardly at that moment.

Why does it seem like everything I see, whether it's animals, plants, or people, exudes this intense sense of pressure?

The man looked at the two brothers carefully for a few moments, then looked away, nodded, and said, "They really are just ordinary people, nothing special."

"This boy is ordinary, but this little girl is extraordinary."

The woman in the water spoke. She floated over like a man, stood next to him, and looked at Sun Muchen.

"This little girl is no ordinary person. I saw it clearly just now. She can use magic. Although she doesn't have much magic power stored in her body, she uses it with great ease and skill."

Upon hearing this, the brother and sister were suddenly stunned.

Wang Lan, in particular, suddenly remembered the magic defense and magic attack mentioned in System C.

So that's how it is.

Is Mu Chen a magician?

The man turned his head and asked curiously, "You saw it?"

The woman nodded and said, "Of course, she can see it very clearly. Magic Imprisonment, Magic Pierce, Magic Detection, Magic Barrier, Magic Illumination, and a whole series of other magical skills—this little girl uses them with great skill."

"This is incredible!"

The man then looked at Sun Muchen and said in a surprised tone, "Could it be that this evolutionary mist can make people proficient in magic?"

Sun Muchen looked up at the man and woman and said, "I... I have no idea what you're talking about."

"You don't know?" the woman said. "Putting everything else aside, the magical confinement you released in the water to save this kid, and the magical barrier you cast after he was rescued to isolate the seawater, and even used magic to extract oxygen from the seawater, which is why you two didn't suffocate here. Such skillful application and transformation are not something someone who doesn't even know what I'm saying could master. Do you have a teacher?"

Sun Muchen sighed and said, "I really don't know what you're talking about. In short, I don't have a teacher, and I don't understand your so-called magic. My brother and I are just ordinary people who want to survive in this apocalypse."

"You still dare to mention ordinary people?"

The woman then sneered and said, "Your Mr. Tree doesn't seem like the type to associate with ordinary people. What is your purpose in coming here? To destroy the source that released the evolutionary mist?"

Wang Lan was silent for a moment, then nodded.

“How ridiculous,” the woman said. “We sea creatures have been fighting this source for hundreds of years without a victor, and you land people whose homes have been destroyed want to fight it?”

"Alright, that's enough," the man interrupted the woman, and continued, "In any case, our ancestors had some connection with the land people. It's fate that these two little ones survived to this place and met us. Let's send them on their way!"

"But...don't you think there's something wrong with them?" the woman said. "Look at this longbow, doesn't it look familiar?"

Upon hearing this, the man frowned, picked up the longbow, and examined it carefully.

"Hiss—" the man said, frowning, "This bow..."

"Doesn't it look like that guy's weapon from Mori City?" the woman finished the man's sentence.

The man looked like he had just realized something and nodded. "Now that you mention it, it does look somewhat like the weapon that guy in the photo has!"

“Am I right?” the woman laughed. “These two people, one can use an iron umbrella weighing several hundred pounds as a weapon, and also has a skill that can instantly increase speed, and the injuries on his body seem to be healing themselves to some extent. And this little girl is proficient in magic, and has a longbow as a weapon. Tsk tsk, not simple.”

"You..." Wang Lan couldn't suppress his curiosity and asked, "Do you know the owner of this bow and arrow?"

"Ha! What do you think?" the woman laughed. "I told you, these two little guys are something else. They even know something about this longbow."

“Alright, alright,” the man said. “Send them away. This isn’t a place for land people. We still have to clean up the mess left by that tree.”

Upon hearing this, Sun Muchen hurriedly asked, "How is that tree?"

“It looks like it’s doomed,” the man said. “There’s a saying among land dwellers: ‘The bigger the tree, the more the wind blows.’ This tree is certainly big enough. It not only attracted a typhoon but also excited the sea creatures. It’s probably going to be torn apart.”

Hearing the man's words, Sun Muchen's face paled even more. She opened her mouth to say something, but was interrupted by the man.

"Alright, I've told you about your friend's situation. You should leave now. This isn't a place for land dwellers."

"But…"

"Lina, send them away!"

Before Sun Muchen could say anything more, the man spoke to the woman in an unquestionable tone.
