Chapter 298 Xu Sa's Revenge

The crystal core in his hand no longer showed any signs of absorption.

The atmosphere in the room was tense. Lu Weiyi was silent for a while, then stood up and left the room.

He went downstairs alone and called Taotao over. He asked her for a peach, cut it into a quarter, and mashed it into a paste.

When he returned to the room again, Dean's hands were so weak that he could no longer hold the crystal core.

"Let's replenish our energy," Lu Weiyi said, and went to Radian.

But he found that Antonio was like a dragon, wrapping Dean tightly in his arms without any exposure.

Lu Weiyi couldn't pull him away, so he could only force the food in the bowl into Dean's mouth in this position.

"Dean, eat something," Lu Weiyi repeated over and over again.

Fortunately, he still had some consciousness and managed to swallow it.

Then, as if stimulated by something, the whole person trembled violently and let out a painful cry.

His distracted eyes gradually focused and he whispered, "It hurts."

"Bear with it," Lu Weiyi touched the little golden retriever's hair, "it will be fine soon."

Antonio saw Dean, who had come back to his senses, muttering to him in inaudible words, alternating between Chinese and English, which was extremely confusing. The man who had remained calm and composed at the moment of life and death now seemed fragile and vulnerable.

The pain made Dean sober, but also tortured him. He couldn't hear clearly what Antonio was saying, he could only feel the pain in every part of his body.

Lu Weiyi forced the crystal core into his hands, held his head with both hands, stared into his eyes, and reminded him word by word, "Absorb the crystal core."

Dean's tears were streaming down his face, his hands were shaking, he tightly grasped the crystal core that was stuffed in, and started absorbing it again.

The energy that he couldn't absorb no matter what seemed to have a breakthrough because of his accumulated courage. When Dean noticed this, he immediately abandoned all thoughts and only had one thought left in his mind: to absorb the crystal core.

Seven hundred.

Eight hundred.

Eight hundred and thirty-two!

Dean seemed to feel something inside his body being broken, and then a soft yet powerful energy was spreading around him, as if it had the power of purification.

The person waiting in the room felt as if every cell in his body had been baptized, as if he had taken a thorough bath, and his whole body was clean and clear.

Even Lu Weiyi was stunned for a moment.

The surroundings were quiet until Xu Yi broke the silence, "Congratulations, you've been promoted."

Antonio finally reacted and turned his head stiffly to look at Dean, and saw a face that was as dirty as if it was covered with asphalt.

"Dean, you..."

“Where does the smell come from?”

"Something is broken, I feel like throwing up"

"Biochemical weapons?"

"David" Dean called out weakly, burying his whole body in Antonio.

"Baby" Antonio seemed not to notice the smell emanating from him. He bent his head and kissed him, constantly rubbing his forehead with his lips, soothing his boyfriend's fear.

The others breathed a sigh of relief and did not disturb the two of them anymore. They turned around and walked out of the room.

Until Gu Qingyue, who was at the front, spoke up, "I seem to feel..."

He stretched out his hand towards the few people, and a ball of water gradually gathered in his palm.

"My super powers have been restored."

"I seem to have recovered too." Lightning flashed between Xu Sa's five fingers.

Liu Rui on the side was holding a fireball with two fingers, looking excited, while the others were also constantly demonstrating their ability to recover instantly.

"Treatment Xu?" Li Zhuang did not join the experiment with everyone. He leaned against the wall with his arms folded, and shouted leisurely.

Xu Yi paused and turned away awkwardly, "I don't know either, but the energy fluctuations brought about by the upgrade seem... very good."

Zhuang Mingxu's feeling was not so obvious, he just felt relaxed all over, and the fatigue from thinking too much in the past few days was swept away.

He turned his head to look at Lu Weiyi, "What do you think?"

Lu Weiyi nodded, indeed it didn't hurt as much anymore.

Zhuang Mingxu went downstairs quickly and asked someone to call back the doctor who had examined him before. After re-examination, it was obvious that there were fewer cracks on the crystal core.

"There are still some." Zhuang Mingxu held the printed list and looked at Xu Yi regretfully.

Xu Yi's face turned pale immediately and he said, "I'm still a long way from being able to upgrade."

"I didn't mean that." Zhuang Mingxu touched his nose, delivered a lot of supplies to the few people who made a special trip, and sent them away.

"It doesn't hurt as much anymore." Lu Weiyi lay on the sofa with a relaxed look on his face.

Everyone sitting in a circle in the villa's living room was constantly reliving their own special abilities. The feeling of losing them once and then regaining them was simply indescribable.

"Let's eat hotpot tonight to celebrate." The knife in Lin Mo's hand kept changing size, and his face was full of excitement.

"We just had barbecue at noon..." The food in Team 1 was so good that Liu Yang felt a little embarrassed.

"Eat, it's my treat," Antonio said loudly as he came downstairs after washing up, hugging Dean.

"Good brother!" Lin Tian bowed to Antonio with both hands and immediately turned to look at Lu Weiyi, the person in charge of supplies.

"Whatever you want," Lu Weiyi said, and threw out some supplies. "I want to take a nap, you guys do as you please." Tormented by headaches all day long, he hasn't had a good night's sleep for a long time.

Now that the pain has eased, he just wants to have a good sleep.

"Thank you," Antonio looked over from a distance and said to Lu Weiyi.

After the upgrade, Dean appeared dirty and smelly, but his spirit was no longer on the verge of death, and he was even better.

Antonio didn't believe like him that it was his so-called belief. It could only be something that Lu Weiyi fed him.

Lu Weiyi waved at him and went back to the room.

…

Soon, everyone around knew about the upgrade. Lu Xiao came over in the rain to see the two B-level healing psychics in their team with a look of envy on his face.

"Isn't the one on your team also Class B?" Xu Yi said.

He was referring to Luo Feifei.

"There are three B-level medical psychics in the base now, and you have taken one of them. Your uncle is still not satisfied," Zhuang Mingxu also responded.

"You know her identity." Lu Xiao was not at all confident in Luo Feifei. It was just that they did not have a healing system at the moment.

"Her relationship with her father is average. Luo Laoqi has a very strong control desire. Luo Feifei has always wanted to leave, but since no team wants to make enemies with the Hunter's Guild, there is no chance. I was the one who guided her when she was leveling up. She was purely forced by Luo Laoqi." Xu Yi told Lu Xiao what he knew.

He had more or less heard about the upgrades of several healing psychics, and he had even been there several times. He had seen the deaths of healing psychics with his own eyes, and had also experienced their rebirth from death.

Every time a healer levels up, the team members will pay attention, but they are more concerned about the impact that the healer's survival or death will have on the team's interests. This is the first time that a team has seen pure worry.

They were worried about the person, not him as a therapist.

Xu Yi himself had never experienced such feelings.

I have to say, he was a little envious.

"Are you going back?" Lu Xiao suddenly asked.

Everyone has recovered their special powers, and the day of their return is getting much closer. Zhuang Mingxu nodded and said, "We agreed to return within two months, but now we have been delayed. We will leave after the rain stops."

Seeing Lu Xiao's eyes moving around the villa, he took the initiative to say, "Xiaoxi is studying in the room, do you... want him to stay?"

"Let me go with you. It will take some time for me to completely stabilize here. His supernatural powers don't allow him to be good at fighting, and I don't have the ability to set up a laboratory for him for the time being. It would be a waste for him to follow me. I'll come to see you when things are more stable," said Lu Xiao.

As they were talking, Xu Sa and Liu Rui came down from upstairs, said goodbye to Zhuang Mingxu and said they were going out.

"Going out in such heavy rain?" Zhuang Mingxu looked outside and saw that the heavy rain showed no sign of stopping.

"Some things should be resolved," Xu Sa said in a deep tone, and then strode out.

Immediately afterwards, a shout of "Fuck" was heard, and Xu Sa reappeared at the door like a drowned rat, shaking off the water on his raincoat.

"The rain is really pouring down?" Xu Sa exclaimed.

"Haha." Lu Xiao put his hands behind his head, gloating without the image of an elder, "Otherwise, do you think that if the rain is light, there will be no need for each team to patrol."

"How the hell am I going to get out?" Xu Sa stared at the scene in amazement.

"Why don't we wait until the rain stops?" Zhuang Mingxu suggested.

Xu Sa didn't say anything. Courage is something that requires timing. After the moment has passed, he didn't know if he could still make up his mind.

"No fatal conflicts among people with special abilities are allowed within the base," Lu Xiao said promptly.

"It's not fatal, is it okay?" Ning Yuan took advantage of the language loophole, stood up and walked towards Xu Sa, "Call me brother, I will use my supernatural power to shield you from the rain."

"Brother" Liu Rui immediately stood in front of Ning Yuan, looking at him seriously with a pair of dark eyes, and spoke for Xu Sa.

Ning Yuan looked at him with disdain, while Xu Sa stood beside him and laughed.

"Non-fatal cases require material compensation," Lu Xiao answered Ning Yuan's question, "the amount of material compensation depends on the number of people injured."

"Extent of injury?" Xu Sa chewed on each word, a smile slowly spreading across his face. "What's the extent of the crystal core's shattering?"

"..." Lu Xiao was blocked for a moment and turned to look at Zhuang Mingxu, only to see that this man had no intention of stopping him at all. He was looking at him seriously, as if he was also waiting for an answer.

"Then you should prepare a large amount of supplies," Lu Xiao said speechlessly.

Xu Sa immediately trotted to open Lu Weiyi's door, opened it a crack like a thief, and called out quietly, "Lu Xiaoyi?"

"Get out!" Lu Weiyi's hoarse voice came.

"Hey," Xu Sa responded, quietly closed the door, turned his head and said, "Done."

"This...which sound did you hear to figure it out?" Lu Xiao suspected that there was something wrong with his ears and he missed some conversation.

"He agreed to me," Xu Sa said confidently, and said to Ning Yuan, "I'll take you to practice your superpowers."

He turned around and walked out first, and Ning Yuan quickly followed.

"Let's go with a few more people. Chen Guang's side is not weak," Lu Xiao said. He spoke a few words to his people on the walkie-talkie and called someone over to lead the way for them.
