Chapter 72 Perception



Cheng Zhen drove the RV away at high speed. The next second, the spot where he parked was suddenly slammed down by something. The thick cement road surface instantly dented and cracked in all directions.

The off-road vehicles following behind narrowly avoided the attack, but the wave of mutated plants came suddenly and fiercely, and more than half of the vehicles in the convoy were attacked.

Moreover, it is extremely fast, and even after being knocked back or shaken off, it can quickly catch up again.

When another heavy blow came crashing down on the RV, Jiang Wan finally saw clearly that this humanoid monster was a cactus!

Yu Fen, half-hanging outside the vehicle, dodged the attacks of the mutated cactus while yelling, "Holy crap! This wilderness is something else! These cacti are on a completely different level from the ones in the city! Damn!"

Jiang Wan, being a professional, subconsciously corrected him: "This is not a cactus, it's a cactus stick."

"The genus *Cactus* is a genus of cacti in the family Cactaceae. This genus is generally small in size but has many branches. Before the end of the world, it was mainly used for ornamental purposes and mostly existed in homes or on office desks."

Before she could finish speaking, Yu Fen retorted with a strange cry: "You call this small?"

The mutated cactus is about two meters tall. More importantly, it can move, and its club-like body can extend and lengthen!

This behemoth is simply monstrous!

"Holy crap! It's come to life!"

Yu Fen was able to handle the light shockwave, but most of the convoy following behind were already exhausted.

"Bang"

A car was unable to avoid the mutated cactus and was overturned, with a person falling out of the car.

"Ikuhara!"

Yu Fen shouted out, and at the same time, Cheng Zhen had already disappeared from the car in an instant. When Jiang Wan came to her senses again, she saw him use a light shockwave to shatter the mutated immortal rod that attacked Yu Yuan, and together with Yu Yuan, he turned the overturned off-road vehicle right by hand.

The mutated plants are relentlessly pursuing you; running away is not the right way to deal with them!

Cheng Zhen immediately ordered: "Get out of the vehicle! Fight!"

Yu Fen immediately coordinated with him, and after he left, he rushed to the driver's seat to stop the RV. Then he got out of the vehicle to fight, but his main responsibility was to protect Jiang Wan and the other two, so he jumped directly onto the roof of the RV and killed the mutated monsters one by one!

Jiang Wan stared blankly, instinctively covering their eyes with one hand, but it seemed to have no effect at all.

The two little ones held her hands with both hands, pulled them down slightly, revealing their own eyes, their movements perfectly synchronized.

Jiang Xiaoshu watched silently, but Jiang Xiaoxin, always eager to know what to do, immediately asked, "What exactly is this strange uncle's superpower?"

One moment it's fire, the next it's a light shockwave, it can teleport instantly, and it's incredibly strong!

Compared to themselves, one is a sensory being and the other is a purifier—they are simply amazing!

But they were unwilling to admit that Cheng Zhen was amazing, so Jiang Xiaoshu glanced at her sister without any emotion.

Jiang Xiaoxin asked innocently, "Brother, why are you looking at me like that?"

But she still obediently shut her mouth!

Because this strange uncle is too amazing, she looks so pathetic in comparison! She can't even sense the thoughts of plants at will, and at this moment she is relying on her brother's protection to purify the senses transmitted by the mutated creature.

Jiang Wan couldn't understand Cheng Zhen's methods either, but she figured he was a very capable person.

But at the same time, she could see that Pingjiang's abilities were similar to Yu Fen's, and not even half as good as Cheng Zhen's. So how did this person manage to remain in the position of a squadron leader despite being so strong?

Hmm, that's a bit strange.

Her attention was focused outside, so she didn't see it. Taking advantage of the fact that her mother and brother weren't paying attention, Jiang Xiaoxin shook off her brother's hand.

"Mother!"

Jiang Wan was drawn back to her senses by her unusual voice and saw that her face was pale and covered in fine sweat.

Jiang Xiaoshu held her hands tightly, her face serious and angry, her lips pursed tightly.

At that moment, she suddenly saw a miniature version of Cheng Zhen fighting outside, even their expressions were so similar.

She roughly guessed what had happened to the little girl. At this moment, she couldn't blame her for being young and ignorant. She could only half-hug her and gently comfort her, "Be good, Xinxin, don't let go of your brother's hand, okay?"

Jiang Xiaoxin felt that her mother was wrong. The uncles outside were using their superpowers to fight against the mutated plants, so why could her and her brother's superpowers only protect each other?

No, actually it's just her brother's superpower protecting her; she's really useless!

She said, "Mom, it knows we're here. It says we're delicious and it wants to eat us!"

As she spoke, she hurriedly shook off her brother's hand with great force, her little face tense.

Jiang Xiaoshu was afraid of hurting her, so he loosened his grip slightly and decided to hug her instead.

But as soon as her senses were restored, she immediately asked, "Where are you?"

The next second, she was embraced by her brother, and the overwhelming response vanished completely from her ears in an instant.

The little guy instantly got angry: "Brother, you're a terrible teammate!"

"I already asked where it is! We'll just kill it when the time comes, and we'll all be safe!"

"Waaaa, Mom! Am I so useless?!"

Jiang Xiaoxin was heartbroken, sobbing uncontrollably and gasping for breath. Her originally pale face turned bright red.

It was only then that Jiang Wan realized what the little girl was thinking. She felt that she needed her brother's protection and therefore was useless.

Jiang Xiaoshu was also taken aback. She didn't expect that her usually silly younger sister had such lofty ambitions and wanted to make a contribution in the task of killing mutated monsters.

But after a moment of stunned silence, the mother and son shook their heads at the same time.

Jiang Wan was both amused and exasperated: "It's not that Xin Xin is useless, it's just that this place is too dangerous. Look, even the uncles, who are so capable, got injured. Is Xin Xin any more capable than them?"

She was a very self-aware child, so of course she shook her head: "I didn't."

"And, Xin Xin, do you remember what your mother said? This is our secret, and we must keep it a secret at all times. No one can know about it."

Jiang Xiaoxin was puzzled: "But why don't these uncles protect this secret?"

"Because they are adults, and they are also city guards, this is a skill they should possess."

Jiang Xiaoxin gave an "Oh" that sounded like she understood but didn't quite.

Jiang Xiaoshu also said, "We are just kids. If we don't go out and cause trouble for the adults, we are helping everyone."

Jiang Xiaoxin is a very reasonable child, and she was quickly persuaded. She stopped crying and her emotions calmed down, but she had a sad little face and no one knew what she was thinking.

Jiang Xiaoshu couldn't bear to see her younger sister's foolishness and couldn't help but remind her, "You're stupid, but it's not stupid. Does it think it'll just tell you where it is and wait for us to go find it and kill it?"

The little girl, who had been listless, suddenly looked up, her eyes bright and her expression excited, pointing at him: "Brother, you're wrong! It just told me that!"
