Chapter 32 Chaos

Only then did Zhang Meng release the golden eagle's wings.

Sui Cheng took out a special chain, intending to tie up the golden eagle, but unexpectedly, the already unconscious golden eagle suddenly opened its eyes and slashed at his heart with its claw.

He quickly dodged and blocked the attack with his bare hands, but his shoulder was still scratched by the claws, and blood quickly soaked his sleeve.

"Captain!" Chen Jiang quickly wrapped the servant's waist with water vines and pulled him out of the golden eagle's attack range.

"Qingjia, medicine!" Suicheng turned his head and saw that the wound on his shoulder seemed to be showing signs of infection.

Qingjia immediately began looking for medicine.

The medicine was handed to the attendant, and just as he was about to inject himself, he felt the vines on his wrist move.

The pale green light emanating from the vines gently touched his wound, the movement very light, as if afraid of hurting him.

The wound, which was initially infected, gradually returned to its normal color and even showed signs of healing.

Chen Jiang was dumbfounded and asked incredulously, "These are Brother Lu's vines?"

"Hmm." Sui Cheng nodded, his feelings somewhat complicated.

After a while, the vines turned yellow and withered. Instead of returning to the wrist of the rider as usual, they completely lost their vitality and fell to the ground.

Tan Qingjia clicked his tongue and said, "The power inside the vines must have been exhausted."

Sui Cheng: "..." He looked at the withered vines on the ground that had died from exhaustion and felt a little reluctant.

"Zhang Meng, Chen Jiang, take the golden eagle, let's go down the mountain right away!"

Sui Cheng thought of Lü Zhi's sieve-like body, and assumed he was probably vomiting blood and about to die.

Thinking about this, his steps quickened considerably.

...

Lu Zhi did indeed vomit blood, and it happened without warning, vomiting a large mouthful of blood, which startled Chang Zijin.

He panicked so much he could barely stand, and grabbed the lawyer, shouting "Lin Zhi!"

Linzhi was also shocked by the amount of blood he vomited this time.

"He's not dead, is he?" Chang Zijin asked Lin Zhi.

Lin Zhi was also unsure, shaking her head and saying, "I don't know either. Although Brother Lu would vomit blood before, it wasn't this bad!"

Chang Zijin asked in confusion, "His health is so poor, why did you still bring him along on the mission?"

Lin Zhi whispered, "Brother Lv is a bit special."

Although he was physically weak, he could fight and heal. In the beginning, the captain took him on because he could heal.

Of course, Lin Zhi didn't say this to Chang Zijin, since he was still an outsider.

"They're back." Lu Zhi reached out and asked Lin Zhi for a bottle of water, quickly washing away the taste of blood from his mouth. He then washed his hands to make sure there wasn't too much blood on his body before slowly saying, "When the charioteer asks later, don't tell him how serious it was, understand?"

Lin Zhi was startled by his gaze and quickly nodded.

As for Chang Zijin, being a rival in love, he would never say such a thing.

As soon as the servant returned, he went straight to the law enforcement officer, asking, "Did he vomit blood again?"

Lu Zhi looked weak, hugged him tightly, rubbed against his shoulder, and nodded weakly: "Yeah, I threw up, and quite a lot of it."

Linzhi: "???" No, brother, you told us not to say anything, so why are you acting all wronged first?

Chang Zijin was also shocked by how quickly Lu Zhi changed his expression. Watching Lu Zhi act coquettishly towards Sui Cheng, he suddenly understood why Lu Zhi didn't allow others to say it. Because some things only have a different effect when said by oneself.

"What a brilliant plan!" Chang Zijin gritted his teeth in frustration.

Surprisingly, the attendant didn't push Lu Zhi away. Instead, he stood there and let Lu Zhi rub against him, his hand on Lu Zhi's back, and said in a hoarse voice, "Thank you."

"Hmm?" Lu Zhi glanced around to make sure no one was paying attention to them before giving Sui Cheng a light kiss on the earlobe and whispering, "No need to thank me, protecting you is something I have to do."

Sui Cheng's ears turned slightly red, and she coughed lightly, a little embarrassed. She pushed him away slightly, then regained her serious expression and said, "We must leave Yancheng immediately."

Chen Jiang pointed to the golden eagle on the ground and asked, "How do we take this back?"

This golden eagle is much bigger than the wolves we encountered last time.

"Give him an injection, Zhang Meng will carry the golden eagle down the mountain, Madrid will immediately drive the car to the foot of the mountain, tie the golden eagle to the roof of the car, and we will leave immediately."

At this time, most of the superhumans are in the air-raid shelter, so not many people will notice them if they leave now.

Lin Zhi looked towards the air-raid shelter, where the sounds of fighting could still be heard. "Captain, are we just going to ignore those alien species?"

"We can't control it, and we shouldn't." The crew members only do the tasks assigned from above; anything that doesn't affect their base's interests is left to other interested people.

"Ahem, you don't want the crystal core anymore?" Lu Zhi asked him.

Passenger: "Do you want some?"

Lu Zhi chuckled lightly: "If I say I want it, you'll go?"

"Then you go by yourself, I'll have them go back first."

Lu Zhi raised an eyebrow. His focus was on "them," meaning that if he really stayed for the crystal core, then Sui Cheng would not go back with them.

He almost blurted out the affectionate address, but after being glared at by Sui Cheng, he swallowed it back and smiled ambiguously, "Captain Sui is so nice."

The passenger: "?" What did he say? How did it really get better?

Lu Zhi added, "Don't worry, I don't want the crystal core."

"Then let's call it a day."

…

They thought the journey back would be smooth, but after they got on the bridge, a huge explosion occurred in the western part of the city. It was so violent that they could see from the bridge that half of the mountain had collapsed.

Lin Zhi stared wide-eyed, stunned, and said, "Luckily we ran fast."

If this were still on the mountain, it would probably have been buried alive.

"boom!"

Immediately afterwards, there was another huge explosion, like a thunderbolt, which lingered for a long time.

They could all see that this was not a simple explosion; its power was simply too great.

"What happened over there?"

"Never mind what it is, get out of this city right now." Lu Zhi interrupted Lin Zhi, his expression unusually serious, and even when he looked at the mountain where the explosion had occurred, his eyes were filled with shock.

The passenger inquired, "Do you know what's going on?"

“I could guess.” Lu Zhi grabbed Sui Cheng’s hand, his voice carrying a warning: “Sui Cheng, do you trust me?”

The passenger nodded, telling him to stop beating around the bush and just say what he meant.

“Starting today, perhaps you need to redefine your understanding of the hierarchy of alien species.” His face was serious, without a trace of a smile, and his eyes were dark and unfathomable.

"Cough!" Lu Zhi felt a sharp pain in his chest. He could feel the powerful aura of the alien species coming from the other side, which was comparable to his current strength. With the current strength of these superhumans, they were no match for them. In less than half a day, the entire Yancheng would be occupied.

"The mutant over there has already broken through to the level of a higher-level species."

As soon as he finished speaking, the ground in Yancheng began to tremble. A dense mass of people rushed out from the west of the city behind him, almost all of them wounded. They found their group's vehicle and then fled frantically out of Yancheng, as if they had seen something extraordinary.

As the smoke from the explosion in the mountains dissipated, the growing plants withered instantly, as if their life force had been drained.

A huge hole was torn open in the very middle of the mountain, and a massive black tree grew out of it. It was enormous, standing like a black giant tower, its trunk reaching into the clouds as if it could touch the sky.

What do the variants above the higher-level species look like?

People now have a concrete understanding of this.

In June 2031, the first major upheaval since the Day of Calamity began.
