Chapter 56: The Spiritual Power of Gu Jinsheng
"How's the digging of the ditch outside going?" Wan Xueying asked Kong Zhongcheng.
"It's done." Fortunately, they brought many people with special abilities, and the ditch was dug quickly.
It was impossible to put out the earth-devouring fire set by Gu Jinsheng. They dug deep trenches around it to ensure that the fire would not spread. When everything that should burn here was burned out, the fire would be over.
"What should we do, Boss?" Gu Jinsheng held Ji An and sat in the flames. There was no fire within a hundred meters around them, but outside of that area there was raging fire. No one could get in to rescue them.
Wan Xueying looked up at the Thunder Dragon in the sky, which was showing signs of fatigue due to excessive release of supernatural powers, and said, "Let's wait and see. If things can't be done..."
Wan Xueying didn't say the rest, but both of them understood that if there was really no other way, they could only withdraw. As for Gu Jinsheng...
Wan Xueying continued to ask: "Have you notified Uncle Gu and Aunt Gu? I hope they can arrive as soon as possible. Maybe when the boss sees his family, he can regain some clarity of mind."
"They're on the way, but looking at the boss's attitude, I'm afraid we won't be able to wait that long." Kong Zhongcheng sighed.
At this moment, a blue-eyed winged tiger suddenly took off into the air. Its four limbs left the ground, and this leap was as high as a seven-story building.
Wan Xueying knew this blue-eyed winged tiger. She heard from a little boy protected by Ji An that this tiger seemed to know Ji An and had saved his and Ji An's lives.
"There's such a big flame, and it's risking its life by getting close to it?" Kong Zhongcheng was puzzled by the blue-eyed winged tiger's behavior.
"No! Its child is still here with me." Little Stone retorted vigorously. In his arms, he held a little mutant tiger cub. The little guy was howling and seemed to be very energetic.
"What's in its mouth?" Wan Xueying noticed that something flashed by in the blue-eyed winged tiger's mouth, and she didn't have time to see it clearly.
"It's water, the water that Brother Ji An took out, and Brother Ji An used it to save the little tiger cub's life!" No one took Xiao Shitou's childish words seriously. They all thought that Ji An used other methods to save the little tiger cub, but Xiao Shitou just misunderstood.
The blue-eyed winged tiger jumped down and landed right at the center of the fire, where Gu Jinsheng and Ji An were. It carefully placed the mineral water in its mouth on the ground, fearing that the water would spill. Then it used its big furry head to butt against Gu Jinsheng's arm.
Gu Jinsheng turned his head and his eyes fell on the mineral water bottle on the ground, then looked back at Ji An's cracked lips, as if he finally remembered something.
Gu Jinsheng took out a cotton swab from the space, soaked it, and applied it on Ji An's lips little by little.
Gu Jinsheng's movements were so light and gentle, as if he was afraid of hurting Ji An. He applied it over and over again, but still couldn't make the dry lips moist.
Gu Jinsheng threw the cotton swab aside, then took out the first aid kit from the space, opened it and found a gastric tube inside.
Gu Jinsheng gently adjusted the position of Ji An's head, inserted the gastric tube gently little by little, then used a disposable syringe to draw water from the bottle of mineral water and slowly injected it into Ji An's stomach little by little.
The blue-eyed winged tiger seemed very satisfied to see this scene. It lay on the ground, tucked one of its front paws into its tucked-in pockets, yawned lazily, and occasionally shook its big furry tail out of boredom.
Gu Jinsheng didn't stop until he had fed the whole bottle of water into Ji An's mouth. He then pulled out the gastric tube and looked at Ji An's lips again.
However, Ji An's lips were still dry and bloodless.
Gu Jinsheng seemed to have finally accepted the reality at this moment. He looked up to the sky and howled, pressing his forehead against Ji An's, "Ji An! Ji An! Ji An!!!"
A majestic, surging energy containing powerful pressure madly overflowed from Gu Jinsheng's brain.
These are Gu Jinsheng's supernatural powers. At this moment, they did not turn into wind or thunder, but were the most primitive form of energy, madly spreading around.
Wan Xueying and the others felt the powerful pressure and uttered a low curse, "Quickly retreat! The boss is having a mental breakdown and his superpowers are rampaging. This may cause the superpower core in his brain to self-destruct. Run!"
Wan Xueying picked up the small stone and turned around and ran away regardless of the little guy's struggle.
Several people's cars were nearby and they all jumped in. However, within a dozen seconds, all the vehicles had left the small village.
Fortunately, this area was quite desolate and there were not many people living there. They were driving an off-road vehicle, so it didn't matter if they slammed the brakes all the way down. Several high-level wind-type psychics in the car simply summoned their powers to create gusts of wind, and a tornado could send several cars hundreds of meters away.
The speedster also added his supernatural power to the tires, and the tires were spinning until sparks flew. The supernatural power turned into wind and blew again. From a distance, it looked like the car was driving in the air.
In this way, it only took a minute for several people to run a thousand meters away.
This is just the edge of safety. With Gu Jinsheng's ability level, once his crystal core explodes, with the help of wind and fire abilities, the range of danger can be far more than a thousand miles, it can only be farther. They can't even estimate the true safe range.
So they can't escape anymore. If they escape again, what will happen to the common people here?
"Sound the base alarm, forcibly recruit people with special abilities, and set up a protective shield on the spot!" Wan Xueying gave the order immediately.
"Yes." The psychic took the order and went out, conveying the command through the walkie-talkie.
On this day, an alarm symbolizing the highest danger, which had not been sounded since the early days of the Jingshi Base except for rehearsals, sounded over the Jingshi Base.
Whether people were working, walking or resting, they all stopped what they were doing and rushed out of the house.
Some people were still laughing. "Is the base rehearsing again? Why is it so sudden this time? There was no advance notice?"
Those who had communication devices took out their devices, and when they opened the software, the overwhelming red color hurt their eyes. Red symbolizes the highest danger warning.
The man holding the phone almost dropped it. He said solemnly, "This is not a drill. This is real. Red alert!"
"What? Red highest danger alert? How could this happen? What happened at the base? Was it reported on the news?" The crowd began to panic. Those who had communication devices hurriedly picked up their devices to call their family and friends.
At this time, Wu Youyang, Han Yaokun and others who were far away in the research institute heard the alarming early warning above the Jingshi base at the same time.
All these people rushed out of the laboratory, and as soon as they came out, they found that the command center had sent people over.
As the head of the research institute, Han Yaokun immediately spoke on behalf of everyone and asked, "The highest red danger alert, what happened? Are there zombies surrounding the city, or is the zombie virus spreading in the Beijing base?"
Han Yaokun could only think of these two at the moment, and he couldn't guess anything else. He couldn't guess anything about Ji An, either. In his opinion, researchers just need to do research seriously in the laboratory and produce more research that benefits the country and the people.
Han Yaokun didn't even notice that Ji An was not in the team, but Wu Youyang was different. For some reason, he had a bad feeling in his heart.
Wu Youyang asked almost immediately after Han Yaokun finished asking, "Where is my boss? My boss is not in the lab. Is he in danger?"
The staff member of the command center looked at Wu Youyang with almost pity in his eyes, and nodded to Wu Youyang.
Before Wu Youyang could even react to what he meant by nodding, the staff member said, "Boss Ji is dead, Commander Gu has been stimulated, and the superpower crystal core is about to explode!"
When Wu Youyang heard the news, his uneasy premonition came true. He staggered back two steps, couldn't stand steadily, and fell to the ground.
"Professor!" Rong Fan held Wu Youyang tightly and prevented him from falling. He slowly supported him and made Wu Youyang, whose legs were so weak that he could not stand, sit down on the ground and slowly rise.
Some people in Han Yaokun's team were gloating, some were sympathetic, and some were pitying. They all looked at Wu Youyang.
There were also some people who were screened out by Wu Youyang and failed to enter Ji An's laboratory. They secretly rejoiced that they were not selected by Wu Youyang, otherwise, after Ji An died, his laboratory would become a mess and they would become headless flies.
The Ji'an Laboratory with Ji'an has unlimited possibilities in the future. Without Ji'an, the Ji'an Laboratory will only stagnate and rely on its past achievements, and will definitely not develop as well as Han Yaokun's research institute. In the future, the research institute led by Han Yaokun will only be far ahead of Ji'an Laboratory.
Some people looked at Wu Youyang with sympathy, lamenting that Wu Youyang was also a miserable person. He had just climbed a towering tree, but the tree fell down in an instant.
People still depend on fate.
Shi Jun is so lucky! It seemed that he would be suppressed by Wu Youyang in the future. As a result, Ji An, the person who was least likely to die, died. Wu Youyang suddenly lost his backer, but Shi Jun's backer Han Yaokun was still alive and well. Shi Jun would only rise higher and higher with him in the future.
Otherwise, people need to have a good life!
The person involved, Shi Jun, didn't think so. He felt more sorry for Ji An.
Ji An was too young and his skills were too advanced. His death would only be a regret for the Jingshi base and for all human beings in the world.
Zhou Fanxiu was equally incredulous when he heard the news. He barely stood up with the support of his wife Bai Na. He asked, "Isn't Ji An a researcher? How could something happen to him?"
When the people at the command center mentioned this, they were filled with deep respect for Ji An.
"Mr. Ji went to the orphanage to see the children and happened to see human traffickers trying to steal the children. He was afraid that the traffickers would move the children away while he was waiting for rescue, and passers-by might destroy the clues left by the traffickers when they escaped, so he chased after them alone to rescue them."
At this point, the staff at the headquarters took off their hats to show respect for Ji An. "Unfortunately, Mr. Ji was discovered by human traffickers before our base's reinforcements arrived. He died while protecting those children."
This was an accident!
Zhou Fanxiu couldn't stand anymore, even with someone's support, so Bai Na could only help him sit down.
When many people heard this, they all showed great respect to Ji An, even those who had some disagreements with Ji An before.
Han Yaokun took the initiative to bow deeply to Zhou Fanxiu and said: "Ji An is our hero, and please accept my condolences!"
Behind Han Yaokun, people followed one after another and bowed and expressed their condolences in the direction of Zhou Fanxiu, Bai Na, Wu Youyang and others.
Among those who bowed was Zhao Zhen, whose back was straighter than usual. There was a kind of joy on his face and in his eyes that was hard to hide. Ji An was dead, he was dead, it was so good!
He said that he had been doing research for decades and had not come up with an independent project. How could Ji An, an uneducated and inexperienced person, come up with two at once?
As expected, when blessings are too great, disasters will come. Ji An could not bear such great blessings.
Some people in Han Yaokun's team noticed Zhao Zhen's joyful expression. Regardless of whether these people were jealous of Ji An or had any thoughts about Ji An, they all quietly stayed away from him after seeing Zhao Zhen's unconcealable joy. At the same time, they decided not to have excessive contact with Zhao Zhen in the future.
Within a radius of one kilometer with Gu Jinsheng as the radius, people with special abilities who were forcibly recruited soon appeared.
Among these psychics, those with low levels were grouped into a group with more, and those with high levels were grouped into a team with fewer. In short, almost all the psychics present were recruited, and there were also psychics who heard the news and came in an endless stream.
The psychic released his superpowers, which rose from the ground to form an arc-shaped protective wall, protecting the safety of the people inside the wall.
The last time Cruise blew himself up, he didn't use this method because there were too many people involved. If someone took advantage of the situation and used the power of the protective shield to do bad things, it would only cause greater casualties.
There is no doubt that people from Country M, Country R and even Country H will take the opportunity to cause trouble, so this trick will not work at all.
Now these psychics are all from the Jingshi base. They can't be said to be a monolithic group, but at least they have their families and children here. They can care about their own lives, but they can't care about their families' lives. As for the orphans, they were not recruited at all during the compulsory conscription. The psychics around them will also help verify their identities. After all, this is also related to them. Once a traitor appears among them, it is very likely that their own families will be harmed.
Ever since the nutrient came out, they have been extremely satisfied. They wish the Jing City base could exist forever and are reluctant to see it in danger. These psychics are releasing their powers while praying silently.
"God, please keep our Jing City base safe and sound!"
Someone else prayed, "Please bless Commander Gu to be safe. The nutritional supplements he promotes are good things with great merit. One of my relatives was about to starve to death. Since the nutritional supplements were sold in the base, he has gained weight and looks radiant. He has also started to consider going out to work."
"If there really are gods in this world, please protect Commander Gu. His meritorious service to the country and the people is worth saving his life!"
There were even many ordinary people who had not awakened their superpowers. Knowing that the commander-in-chief of the Jing City base had been in trouble, they all began to pray for them silently. Many people even took out the candles that they usually didn't want to use and lit them up to express their sincerity.
It was clearly daytime, and the candlelight should be as faint as a firefly under the sunlight. But sometimes, it was this firefly light that could start a prairie fire!
Of course, some news leaked out of the base. Du Ruanlan at the Luo City base received the news, "The Jing City base has sounded the highest danger red alert. It seems that Gu Jinsheng's lover, a psychic, died in the battle. Gu Jinsheng had a mental breakdown, which caused a psychic riot and caused the psychic's crystal core to self-destruct."
Owen raised his handsome eyebrows, "Gu Jinsheng, isn't he nicknamed the Humanoid Killer? I thought he was a combat robot, but I didn't expect he wasn't. He's actually a real person with a heart and the ability to love."
Jiang Fuzhong sighed and said, "Even a hero can't resist the temptation of beauty."
Du Ruanlan said lazily, "Gu Jinsheng is done, so we'll be busy."
Owen said, "Yeah."
The Jingshi base is now a big piece of fat meat, who wouldn't want to take a bite. If Gu Jinsheng died again, the Jingshi base would lose two commanders in a short period of time, and there would be unrest, and by then it would not just be their base that would reach out.
Du Ruanlan said: "Keep an eye on those foreigners. It doesn't matter who gets the Beijing base among us, but we must not let those foreigners get it."
Cong Xun of the North Base also got the news. He sighed and said, "A beauty's fragrance attracts a hero's tomb. Sure enough, a person like Gu Jinsheng can't get over the emotional barrier. I just don't know if those foreigners can still be controlled after Gu Jinsheng's death."
Han Zhiwei of the South Base also had a news channel. "Tell the spies to take action as soon as Gu Jinsheng dies. They must take control of the Jingshi Base before the spies from Country M and Country R take control of the Jingshi Base. They must not let those foreigners succeed. If necessary, they can give up their interests, but they must not let the foreigners succeed."
Gu Jinsheng, who was regarded as the source of the disaster, still had his abilities continuously flowing out of his brain. The blue-eyed winged tiger was overwhelmed by this powerful energy and was suffocating. It was wagging its tail around Gu Jinsheng and Ji An anxiously.
Even the person involved, Gu Jinsheng, did not notice that the energy that came out of his brain was entering Ji An's brain one by one.
Almost all the energy went into Ji An's brain, and only a small amount was scattered in the air.
