Five years into the apocalypse, Zhuang Mingxu, the strongest ability user in the safe zone, was killed by his so-called “family.”
Lu Weiyi, who had been indifferent to everything for over...
Chapter 677: Purpose Exposed
"Since we are also parties involved, why don't we go together?" Wu Yue still remembers the last time Zhou He and his group were ambushed, and the perfunctory result of the attack without any cover-up. If he lets Qi Le take Cangcuo and the others away alone now, they might be framed, and their so-called true identities from Cangcuo's mouth might remain a mystery forever.
Since you can't change the possibility of being plotted against, you might as well grasp as much valid information as possible. Who can guarantee that any point will not be an opportunity for survival?
After Wu Yue said this, Qi Le's expression remained the same, but his gaze had become less friendly. The psychics who were nearby had already noticed the change in his aura, and even after his eyes became cold, he looked a lot gloomier.
Several young children sensed the danger but didn't know what to do. With confusion on their faces, they looked around to see how others would react, and secretly glanced at Qi Le to see if he had any instructions.
But Wu Yue seemed not to notice and looked directly at Cangcuo, "I'm more curious, you just said that Master Qi Le and Luo Qi from Panshui Base are the same person? Do you have any evidence for this?"
Qi Le's facial expression was no longer maintained, "You are the most..."
"The Panshui base has injured countless psychics in our base. I believe that you in the Shanshen base hate them to the core, and you should hate Luo Qi, the person in charge of the Panshui base, even more. Don't you want to hear whether what he said is true or just slander?"
It's just inciting people. If Cangcuo dares to drag Yuebanwan into the water, Wu Yue will drag everyone around him into it.
"He...he is talking nonsense." Children may not know how to control their emotions, but children's likes and dislikes are the most straightforward. Subconsciously, they are unwilling to believe this possibility and will immediately refute it.
A childish voice sounded, and then people responded continuously. Wu Yue glanced at them casually and found that Fang Tang was silent, while the other team members around him pulled his clothes at a loss. As for the adult psychics, they were even more silent.
It seems that not all people with special abilities believe Qi Le’s lies, but adults consider it more.
"You'll know whether it's nonsense or not after you listen to it." Wu Yue glanced at Sun Cheng and said two words silently, then turned his head and exchanged glances with Cangcuo.
Cangcuo immediately understood that if he was captured, Qi Le would have the final say, but now he might still have room to struggle.
He immediately shouted, "I want to report to Lord Mountain God that Luo Qi has assumed a false identity and is hiding in the Mountain God base, plotting to do something bad to Lord Mountain God and everyone in the Mountain God base."
It seemed that he did not expect that the person who had just mentioned the mountain god Bai Lu and Qi Le together would immediately single him out. Qi Le showed a look of contempt on his face, thinking that there might be something wrong with this person. He knew that he and Bai Lu were together, but still reported him alone.
Then Wu Yue said lightly, "Since someone has reported Master Qi Le, does that mean that the Mountain God needs to come and investigate?"
Qi Le immediately understood what the two men meant. They all knew that Bai Lu was seriously injured. As for the reason for this injury, it could be said that it was because he had enlightened too many people with special abilities, or that there was an internal traitor, and they could also be said to be controlled by him.
Given Bai Lu's current situation, if she showed up, she would be completely exposed to the sun, and all their previous efforts would be in vain.
"Lord Mountain God is seriously injured now, and has handed all matters of the base to me to handle temporarily. As for this nonsense you said..."
"As far as I know, it seems that the Mountain God Base has always been in charge of handling matters by several divine messengers. However, ever since Master Qi Le showed up, the Mountain God has been in poor health and rarely shows up. The base's affairs are leaning towards you..." Wu Yue interrupted Qi Le before he could finish, speaking in a suspicious tone and adding speculation, "If you think about it this way, Master Qi Le, it's easy for people to think that you control the Mountain God, right?"
"How long has it been since you last saw Lord Mountain God show up?" Wu Yue asked all the psychics.
"I haven't seen the mountain god for three months."
"No, the Mountain God appeared last month to see off the people of Yueban Bay."
"I didn't see him then. The last time he showed up was about two months ago, right?"
"Come to think of it, it seems like the mountain god is showing up less and less often..."
"Won't……"
"Don't talk nonsense, it's impossible!"
"How is it impossible? I've wanted to say this for a long time. We have divine messengers in our base, and they are all people with special powers. How could we put the management of the base in the hands of an ordinary person?"
"Master Qi Le... isn't he smart? He is the one who is doing the training of the superpowers in our base."
"That only means that he can teach people, but can a teacher who can teach people manage the base?"
"Is this really necessary? Lord Mountain God hasn't appeared for such a long time. Could it be that something really happened?"
"We should see them less often. We should see them when the people with special abilities are enlightening us. What about the most recent batch of people with special abilities enlightening us? They should know."
"No, I heard that the Mountain God doesn't need to show up during enlightenment..."
"Is this true? That means it hasn't been seen for quite a while. It couldn't have been in trouble..."
"Sh-!"
The psychics had had a lot of contact with Qi Le and had seen his methods, so no one spoke up. But it was different for ordinary people. Several months of brainwashing had not been ineffective. Plus, the difference in status here was not that big, so some people immediately started muttering in a low voice.
After a while, the psychics began to look at each other. The entire Mountain God Base revolved around Lord Mountain God. No matter what everyone thought deep down in their hearts, they all understood clearly that Lord Mountain God's existence was the source of the base's cohesion. For the sake of this stable living environment, no one went into the details of the deeper things.
If something happens to Lord Mountain God now, it means that the future of this base is likely to undergo unpredictable changes.
"Master Qi Le, I want to ask, what exactly happened to Lord Mountain God's injury? It has always been said that the damage to his cultivation was caused by enlightening too many people with special abilities, but today I heard that it was done by a spy. So what exactly caused it?" Wu Yue added fuel to the fire.
"If it's a cultivation, then it should be an immeasurable injury to the god's internal organs. If it's a spy, then it should be treatable, right? Did the mountain god see a doctor or did he make the decision himself?" Facing Qi Le's increasingly unfriendly expression, Wu Yue said lightly, "Could it be that no one knows except you?"
"Or, you should find someone reliable to check it out. After all, Master Qi Le's identity is now under suspicion. If he is really Luo Qi from Panshui Base, then he must have used some tricks to get in such close contact with the Mountain God..."
He didn't finish his words, but his meaning was clear.
"It seems that you, Yuebanwan, have already conspired with this spy." Qi Le suddenly laughed, no longer hiding his ultimate goal and turning the tables. "Have you, Yuebanwan, stopped hiding your goal?"
"You may not know this as you have little contact with the outside world, but Yuebanwan has come to our base time and again, always wanting to see the magical powers of our Mountain God, all in order to seek benefits for the many ordinary people in their base."
"I have also received news a long time ago that they wanted to kidnap our Lord Mountain God through spies within our base. Now it seems that their conspiracy has failed and has been turned into an open plot."
So this was his plan. Wu Yue found it funny, but seeing the people around him, he obviously felt it was possible. After all, most of the people in their base were still ordinary people.
They were talking in whispers and looking at Wu Yue with vigilance. Some of them who were close to him even quietly moved away from him, as if they were afraid of being kidnapped by them.
It was also at this time that someone noticed that Sun Cheng, who had originally come with Wu Yue, had disappeared at some point.
"Hey, where is Brother Sun?" Li Jing asked curiously.
When Qi Le heard this, he immediately looked around for someone. When he saw a group of people walking towards them from a distance, his face turned completely black.
"Captain Wu" Sun Cheng greeted Wu Yue from afar.
Following him were Tan Yun and Sha Peng, as well as Mo Tiantian, and standing behind them were a group of psychics of different ages.
Most of them are people with special abilities. When they left the Panshui base, they fought against mutant creatures and zombies together and carried out a large-scale migration. On the way, they met the Lord Mountain God.
Bai Lu helped them choose a location, and they used their supernatural powers to build the base.
The steep wall at the entrance of the base that is so high that you can't see the sky, the reinforced cliffs on both sides, and even the solid walls of mutated plants, there are figures of these psychics everywhere.
These are the people who first followed Bai Lu to set up the base.
As soon as Qi Le saw it, he immediately knew that he had hit a wall today.
When he learned that Lu Weiyi had awakened, he originally planned to abandon the Panshui base and start over with the identity of Qi Le. He even thought that perhaps he could re-establish friendly relations with Yuebanwan with his new identity.
However, plans can never keep up with changes, and Wu Yue's reckless tracking broke all his plans for the future.
This is also the reason why he was so anxious that he had to find someone to slander.
It was still too hasty and full of loopholes.
"Captain Wu" Tan Yun was the first to greet Wu Yue, then frowned and looked at Qi Le, "Master Qi Le, I received a report from the military doctor in Suncheng, saying that you openly slandered the Yuebanwan base and attempted to cause disputes between the two bases."
"Master Qi Le of your base accused us of wanting to kidnap Lord Mountain God," Wu Yue said and laughed first, "Emissary Shapeng, the people do not know the technological level of our base. You should be clear about it. The psychics that you treat as popular commodities here cannot even withstand the crystal core rocket launchers of our base."
"Two of the five top psychics at Panshui Base, who were about to break through to SS level, were killed by rocket launchers. Why would I miss your Mountain God's ability to enlighten people?" Wu Yue laughed to himself as if he had heard something funny. "If we have this time, why don't we produce more rocket launchers?"
