Chapter 358: Consideration

He was right next to them, but he lost his life so easily.

But the point at the moment is not this. Pei Xin’s death is already settled, but they are still on the edge of danger.

At this moment, they ran away, the farther away from these crazy people, the better.

But once these people fell into madness, they were tireless and only cared about the sounds. As they ran, these people chased them. In the end, it was the people with plant-based abilities who took action. They tied the crazy team members with vines and then tied them to a tree. Only then did they escape from danger.

During this time, this crazy team member was not quiet either. He kept roaring and struggling, and even attracted the team members who were some distance away with his shouting.

Danger was approaching them step by step. Lan Jin and the others had no choice but to continue running away and hide, leaving this hellhole.

The group ran and hid, and finally after running for a long time and confirming that there was no danger, they stopped at the original body.

…

After stopping, Xi Yu couldn't help but ask, "Sister Lan, why didn't you use your supernatural powers to help Xinxin just now? If..."

Lan Jin said, "There's no ifs. When Captain Zhang went berserk, I tried to shock him to calm him down, but the more I shocked him, the more excited he became. You know how strong the defenses are downstairs. He pushed the bars open in one go. They can't shock him. The more I shocked him, the more excited he became. That's why I didn't do anything."

Xi Yu really didn't know this. Fortunately, he asked, otherwise he would have misunderstood Lan Jin forever.

"Sorry, I was mean-spirited."

"It's okay, just talk it out."

These two people have talked it out, but what should the rest of the people do?

Captain Zhang looked at the nine team members beside him and really didn't know what to do. There were many trees on the top of the mountain, but they were all dead branches. Not to mention hiding, there was no way to even stand there.

And there are not only the crazy team members on this mountain, but also those mutant creatures——

Captain Zhang said with a grim expression, "Why don't we go back to the ship? Let me see how many crazy people there are on the ship. How about we get them out and take a boat for ourselves? Otherwise, how are we going to hide outside? And our food won't last for that many days."

"I think your idea is good." Lao Gao agreed. Although the heat-insulating suit can block a certain amount of heat, it is always inferior to the air conditioning on the ship. Besides, there is enough food on the ship and the environment is good. Who would want to live in the mountains?

Seeing that no one raised any objections, Captain Zhang used his mental power to cover the surroundings and see the situation. However, due to his frantic escape just now, he really couldn't sense the direction of the ship at this moment.

"I need to get closer. Speaking of which, can't my ability be upgraded? My mental power is certainly useful, but the distance is too short."

But when it comes to mental power, Zhou Zhi also said: "Your mental power ability cannot be used. Could it be affected by the barrier?"

Captain Zhang really didn't know this. "Anyway, after arriving in Maolin, my mental strength has been depleted... Wait, that shouldn't be the case. I recovered inside Maolin, at the fork in the road, and I was inside the barrier when I used it. That can't be the reason. Of course, it might be affected by that, but I just don't know."

Captain Zhang's superpowers were restored there, and his teammates recovered even earlier. In short, it's hard to say, but maybe the disappearance of the superpowers was aimed at everyone, but Lan Jin and the others had a bug, so a little accident happened, which led to some people having superpowers and some not.

But Lan Jin still had something on his mind. "What on earth are those displays on the -5th floor controlling?"

"Who knows? Maybe it's just an ordinary surveillance camera." Lao Gao has a simple mind. Even though he saw those things, he didn't think of studying them carefully.

But Huang Jinghe disagreed. "No, that console is obviously used to control something. I think it might be used to control... control... Mao Lin?"

Control Maolin? How can Maolin be controlled? It originally grows in the land. Is it possible to control it and move it?

"No, it's just..."

Before Huang Jinghe could finish, Lao Gao interrupted him, saying, "That's just how you think. You're over-complicating things. What can that console control? At most, it can only control things inside the villa. Can it possibly control the mutated plants or animals outside? That's impossible, because those mutated creatures were formed entirely after humans came into contact with the green light. You can't manipulate the green light yourself and turn yourself into this monstrous form, can you?"

"It's really possible." Shen Zhiyan said.

Everyone frowned and asked, "Why?"

"Maybe they didn't mean to do it, it was just an accident, but would they be willing to be turned into that horrible appearance? So they want everyone to be buried with them, to be turned into this horrible appearance, to accompany them."

Although Shen Zhiyan's idea was far-fetched, it was not impossible. After all, human nature could not withstand the test and scrutiny. When they were on the negative 5th floor, those humanoid mutant creatures just wanted them to get the things in the elevator out and die together. So, it was really possible.

"But who created the green light that can turn people into this? Or, can green light alone really cause people to mutate? Then, can this vaccine really restore people to their original state?"

As the ten people slowly pondered——

The answer is naturally hard to figure out, but at this moment, they avoided one crazy team member after another and finally came near the ship.

Captain Zhang stood there, sensing the situation inside the ship. He said, "There are two people in the cabin on our ship. Because the door is closed, no mutations have occurred, so they are hiding here at the moment. I won't talk about the people in Class A, but inside the cabin... almost every ship has about 20 people."

These people should have escaped from the dense forest, but were injured, so they returned to the cabin to rest. Who knew that after resting for a while, they fell into a state of madness.

The interior of the cabin is at the bottom of the ship. They need to pass through two doors and a staircase to leave the ship. These two doors have been reinforced with protection, so it is not easy for them to get out like this.

Therefore, their current task is to first quietly get rid of those people in Class A, and then get rid of the more than 20 people inside the cabin, so that they can replace them in.
