Chapter 68: Locking on the Psychic Zombie King Again After losing his ability, the...
"Commander Gu, why are you here? Are you looking for Boss Ji?" Wu Youyang was startled when he saw Gu Jinsheng, and then he realized that Gu Jinsheng should be here to look for Ji An.
Yin Fang also stood up from the sofa and greeted Gu Jinsheng, "Commander-in-Chief Gu."
Although Ji An had told Yin Fang and Yu Xi that they could go to the lounge to rest when he entered the laboratory, the two of them still took turns to guard the room.
There is always someone guarding outside the laboratory, watching the door to ensure that not a single mosquito can fly in.
Yin Fang stood up and went to the lounge to call Yu Xi, but Gu Jinsheng stopped him and said, "No need, I just came to see Xiao An. I haven't seen Xiao An at home these few times I went home, and I'm a little worried. Has he been staying here all this time?"
"Yes." Wu Youyang was a little anxious when he mentioned this. "Commander Gu, you know Boss Ji's habit. Once he enters the laboratory, he will never come out until he has made some progress."
Gu Jinsheng asked, "Xiao An has been in there for two months and ten days. Hasn't he come out once during this time? Have you never seen him once?"
"Yes, Boss Ji has not come out once since he entered the laboratory." Wu Youyang was also worried, "Commander Gu, to be honest, if it was before, I really wouldn't worry about Boss Ji.
This is Boss Ji’s experimental habit. He will never leave the laboratory unless there is progress.”
Wu Youyang frowned and said, "To tell you the truth, I used to have an inexplicable blind trust in Boss Ji. I always felt that there was no experiment that Boss Ji wanted to accomplish that he couldn't succeed."
Wu Youyang was a little embarrassed to say this, but he still said: "But now Boss Ji has lost his psychic ability after all. I have been an ordinary person for so many years, and I know something about it. There is a dimensional wall between ordinary people and people with psychics.
It’s normal that Boss Ji can’t come up with anything right now. I’m just worried that he won’t be able to accept the huge gap between being a genius and being ordinary for a while, and he’ll be psychologically unbalanced.”
"Let me see him." Gu Jinsheng was already very worried about Ji An, and after hearing what Wu Youyang said, he became even more worried.
Wu Youyang stopped him, saying, "Commander Gu, this won't work. According to Boss Ji's rules, when he's in the lab, no one is allowed to disturb him, no matter how big the problem is."
Gu Jinsheng stopped and looked towards the laboratory with worry in his eyes. For such a long time, Ji An had not left the laboratory once, and Gu Jinsheng was really worried.
Gu Jinsheng thought about it and decided to release the thunder dragon.
The thunder dragon, which has always been mighty and domineering, appeared this time as thin as a small snake, and the whole dragon was as thin as a hair.
Don't say it's majestic and domineering, it's just, it's quite cute.
The Thunder Dragon was very dissatisfied with his body which was so thin that it could be blown away by a gust of wind. He twisted his body with a look of disgust, growled at Gu Jinsheng with bared teeth, and launched a series of thunder balls to attack Gu Jinsheng.
Gu Jinsheng waved his hand to block it, frowned, and said to Lei Long: "Okay, stop making trouble, go, find a place to get in and see if Xiao An is okay. How can you get in when you become so big?"
The thunder dragon stopped making trouble, but it was still probably dissatisfied. It glared at Gu Jinsheng with its blood-red eyes, then twisted its hair-thin snake body, no, its dragon body, and flew away.
Wu Youyang was stunned, his mouth opened wide unconsciously.
What shocked Wu Youyang was not the Thunder Dragon. After all, Gu Jinsheng had previously released a Thunder Dragon in the night sky in public to congratulate Ji An. Everyone in the Jing City base knew that the Thunder Dragon was the manifestation of their commander-in-chief's supernatural power.
What shocked Wu Youyang was that even though the Thunder Dragon was so small, it was still so vivid and lifelike. It had everything it should have, and it was exactly like a large version of the Thunder Dragon scaled down in proportion.
This move is really powerful. The energy required is no less than that of a big thunder dragon. Gu Jinsheng's strength is really unfathomable. Such a small and realistic thunder dragon can't be made by ordinary people.
Many people use such a fine power, which is to directly release a strand of original energy. This saves trouble and energy, but the most important thing is that it cannot be done.
They really should be called to see how pretentious General Commander Gu of the Jing City Base was when he was pursuing his wife. A task that could be done with a piece of raw energy thread had to be done in such a complicated way just to show off his strength in front of his wife.
It was like a male peacock spreading its feathers, spinning around, showing his gorgeous feathers to his wife from all angles...
But even if Gu Jinsheng wanted to show his strength, Wu Youyang still felt that there was something strange about the Thunder Dragon. He couldn't figure it out for a moment, "Commander Gu, the Thunder Dragon that you materialized with your supernatural power seems to be a little different from others."
Speaking of this, Gu Jinsheng also had a headache. He said, "Since I lost my wind ability, my control over the Thunder Dragon has been a little out of control."
The Thunder Dragon is the embodiment of Gu Jinsheng's supernatural powers. Losing control over the Thunder Dragon means losing control over his supernatural powers.
As expected, losing one superpower would cause great damage even to a person with dual superpowers.
This is normal. It is a superpower, not just any random thing.
In fact, this is the right way to go. It is good to have damage. Otherwise, the performances of Gu Jinsheng and Ji An make it seem that superpowers are not very important things. If they are destroyed, they are destroyed. It is no big deal.
Ji An's lab was decorated with special materials, airtight, so even if there was an explosion inside, no one outside could hear it. Logically, not even a mosquito could fly in.
But no one knows how the Thunder Dragon did it, it actually found a way to get in.
The Thunder Dragon was transformed from Gu Jinsheng's supernatural power. It can only be said that Gu Jinsheng's strength is too powerful.
After the thunder dragon came in, it looked around first. When it saw Ji An, its little red eyes lit up, and it immediately flew over, shaking its head and wagging its tail.
Lei Long's eyes, which now looked as big as beans, looked at Ji An with sparkling eyes, revealing his obvious love for him.
However, it did not disturb Ji An. Instead, it hovered quietly beside Ji An, watching him do the experiment curiously.
When Lei Long saw what Ji An was fiddling with while wearing sterile gloves, he shuddered all over.
What Ji An was holding in his hand was a small piece of leg bone from some unknown animal.
Ji An suddenly turned around and saw Lei Long at a glance. At first he didn't react and stared at Lei Long warily.
When the Thunder Dragon saw that Ji An had discovered it, it immediately flew over, wagging its tail, and tried to rub Ji An's face with its tiny little head.
This time, Ji An saw clearly what the little creature in front of him was. "Thunder Dragon?" Ji An asked in surprise, "How did you become so small?"
After hearing what Ji An said, the little fellow who was rubbing Ji An's face and acting coquettishly with Ji An, his small eyes were dull for two seconds, and then he immediately revealed an aggrieved expression, and disappeared without any warning.
Ji An quickly stood up and opened the door of the laboratory. As expected, he saw Gu Jinsheng standing in the research room. "Lei Long suddenly disappeared. Are you okay?"
Gu Jinsheng shook his head, "No, maybe you said it was small, it felt embarrassed and disappeared on its own."
"Disappeared by itself?" Ji An sensed something was wrong, glanced at Wu Youyang, dragged Gu Jinsheng into the laboratory, closed the door and asked, "What happened? Thunder Dragon is the embodiment of your supernatural power, how could it disappear by itself?"
Superpowers are just the abilities of superpowers, just like people can walk. If you don't want to walk, your legs can't walk on their own. Legs themselves don't have thoughts, they are controlled by the brain.
The same is true for superpowers. They are just an ability of the superpower holder and are controlled by the superpower holder.
Gu Jinsheng said: "Ever since my wind ability was destroyed, there seems to be a problem with my control over the Thunder Dragon. It seems to be a little out of control."
"You can't fully control your superpowers now?" Ji An looked worried.
"Not really. I have no problem using my superpowers to fight." Gu Jinsheng rubbed his brows. "It's just that the Thunder Dragon seems out of control. It seems to have some ideas of its own, especially when facing you. Just like when you said it was small, it felt ashamed and disappeared. Also, when I visualized it just now, it didn't want to be that small. It wanted to be taller and more powerful in front of you, but I said that only when it was small could it get into your laboratory to see you, and it compromised."
Ji An discovered a bigger problem. Gu Jinsheng was not in the lab just now, but he knew what he said to Lei Long. As for the lab not being soundproof, it was absolutely impossible for Gu Jinsheng to hear it himself.
All laboratories are made of top-grade special materials, so there is absolutely no such low-level problem. "Can you see or sense things through the Thunder Dragon now?"
"Yes." Gu Jinsheng had discovered this problem long before.
“But, being able to perceive or see things that one is not present at through supernatural powers should be a unique feature of psychics. Other psychics do not have this feature…” Ji An murmured, and suddenly Little Stone and Little Rose flashed through his mind. Those two children had also awakened psychic powers. Now Gu Jinsheng’s change also meant that his mental power was improving.
But Gu Jinsheng had just lost his wind-related ability. Logically speaking, after a person with a superpower has lost his superpower, his mental strength should decrease and return to the level of an ordinary person.
Under normal circumstances, the mental power of a psychic is stronger than that of an ordinary person, and the mental power of a psychic is far stronger than that of an psychic. The powerful ones can even control psychics through their minds.
Now Gu Jinsheng's mental strength has not been damaged because of the abolition of his supernatural power, but has been improved...
Spiritual spring water?
Ji An's eyes fell on the spiritual spring water on the experimental table.
Lingquan water is really magical. How can we find the correct way to upgrade it?
Gu Jinsheng felt pity when he saw Ji An, who was lost in thought with a frown on his face and rubbed his solar plexus from time to time to relieve his headache.
Ji An has always been so hardworking and loved his scientific research so much, but now he has lost his psychic abilities. What a heavy blow this must be to Ji An.
Gu Jinsheng couldn't bear to let Ji An continue to be so tired, and he also didn't want Ji An to fall into the dilemma of the experiment, so he said: "I came to see you this time, first, I saw that you haven't been home for a long time and I am a little worried about you, and second, I also want to ask you, do you still want to hunt down the spiritual zombie king last time?
We have successfully located it again."
In fact, the Jingshi base had been tracking the zombie king a long time ago and had locked onto it for a long time. However, due to the special nature of the psycho-type zombie king, no one dared to act. They were waiting for Gu Jinsheng to return to the team, for fear of scaring away the snakes. If the psycho-type zombie king escaped, it would be difficult to catch it again.
Ji An didn't expect that Gu Jinsheng was still willing to take him with him. After all, his psychic abilities were abolished and he was just an ordinary person. It was actually quite a burden to take him with him.
It was still very dangerous for him, but even so, Gu Jinsheng still asked him, was willing to respect his choice, and still remembered his desire to go. Ji An was very touched.
"I'll go." Ji An assured, "Don't worry, I won't hold the team back. Before I awakened my superpowers, I teamed up with superpowers to fight zombies at the Third Base. I've learned ancient martial arts, so I won't be a burden to the team."
"I'm not Chen Chen, Xiao An!" Gu Jinsheng's tone was a little heavy, and Ji An could tell that he was a little angry, "And if I don't come, I won't feel that you are a burden to me."
Ji An knew Gu Jinsheng's good intentions and quickly said, "I'm sorry, I spoke out of turn."
"You don't need to say sorry to me."
Ji An realized that everything he said today seemed to be wrong, so he asked, "So do you want to take me with you?"
Gu Jinsheng stared at Ji An with his dark and deep eyes until he felt uncomfortable. Then he asked softly, "Xiao An, were you acting like a spoiled child with me just now?"
Ji An's ears turned red with shame. He was so angry that he asked fiercely, "When are we leaving?"
Gu Jinsheng let out a short laugh, his brows softened, and his eyes had a gentle feeling like the breeze and the bright moon.
"tomorrow."
Ji An suddenly felt that what was wrong with Gu Jinsheng might not be his ability, but his brain.
Yes, what was broken in Gu Jinsheng was his brain. The crystal core of the mutant was also in his brain.
It turns out that his brain is broken, no wonder his temperament has changed, huh!
There will be a battle tomorrow, so Ji An will no longer conduct experiments, and Gu Jinsheng will no longer go to the headquarters, so the two of them will just go together.
When Ji An opened the laboratory door, he saw Wu Youyang, Yin Fang and Yu Xi were all there.
Ji An said to Yin Fang and Yu Xi, "You guys go home and have some rest. I will go home with Jin Sheng in a while, so you don't need to send me home."
"Okay." Yin Fang and Yu Xi responded.
Gu Jinsheng's strength is much stronger than theirs, and even if there are ten of them, they cannot beat Gu Jinsheng alone.
With Gu Jinsheng protecting Ji An, they don't have to show off their skills.
"You don't have to pick me up at home tomorrow. I have to go out on a mission at the base tomorrow, and I may have to be quarantined for a few days when I come back. I will notify you to pick me up when I come to the laboratory."
"Okay." Yu Xi and the other two agreed.
"What, Boss Ji, you are going to go on a base mission tomorrow, your psychic..." Wu Youyang was a little anxious. Which base mission is not dangerous? Psychics are originally non-combat oriented, and the base never needs psychics to participate.
In the past, it was fine for Boss Ji to go on missions because he liked it and his fighting ability was still very strong. But now Boss Ji’s superpowers have been destroyed. Isn’t it too dangerous for him to go on missions at the base again?
Wu Youyang looked at Gu Jinsheng, not understanding why Gu Jinsheng would agree to something that sounded so dangerous.
Gu Jinsheng said: "Don't worry, I will lead the team for tomorrow's mission myself, and I will protect Xiao An."
What else could Wu Youyang say? Gu Jinsheng agreed.
Before leaving, Ji An instructed, “When I’m not here, no one is allowed to enter the laboratory, not even the cleaners.
Don't touch the things inside. Just help me feed those regenerated mutant animals and prevent them from dying. Don't worry about anything else for now."
"I understand, Boss Ji." Wu Youyang agreed.
Gu Jinsheng drove Ji An home. When they arrived home, Ji An smelled the fragrance of food. It turned out that Gu Jinsheng had already prepared the food before he left.
I have to say that Gu Jinsheng really knows Ji An too well. He is certain that Ji An will hunt down the Zombie King.
Ji An did not feel that Gu Jinsheng was controlling him by guessing his own psychology; instead, he felt somewhat touched.
Gu Jinsheng was so busy all day that he had to force himself to take nutritional supplements. However, he had to go home and cook for her. He was mentally damaged and had to endure a splitting headache every day.
Ji An said nothing, but he remembered all of this in his heart.
Ji An was never a person who didn't know how to be grateful. On the contrary, if others were kind to him, Ji An would always want to repay them with ten times the kindness.
Saying thank you would be an insult to Gu Jinsheng's kindness. Ji An didn't say much, but showed his attitude with practical actions. He ate a lot and Gu Jinsheng was very satisfied.
After dinner, Ji An took out the spiritual spring water from the space necklace and gave it to Gu Jinsheng.
"Drink one before you go to bed at night. If you really can't sleep because of the headache, take some medicine with it. There is still a battle to fight tomorrow. We need to rest well."
Gu Jinsheng didn't answer it, "You gave me several boxes before I went to work, and I haven't finished them yet. I have some."
Ji An smiled, "Just take it if I give it to you. It's a good thing."
Of course Gu Jinsheng knew this, and he also vaguely felt that Lei Long’s change might really be related to the spiritual spring water.
Perhaps it was not that Lei Long lost control, but that his mental power increased in a short period of time, resulting in his insufficient control over his mental power, which made Lei Long seem to have his own ideas.
The next morning, Gu Jinsheng got up and made mutated beef noodles for Ji An. After breakfast, the two drove to the command center to meet up with everyone.
The deputy commander of the team this time is Wan Xueying. In order to ensure the success of the mission, almost all of the people who came are masters above level four.
The configuration of this team is the standard configuration when Gu Jinsheng and his team go on a mission. There is almost no need to instruct them, and everyone cooperates very well.
Wan Xueying introduced the situation of the Zombie King again on the way, and just answered a few simple questions.
The spiritual zombie king seemed to have really evolved intelligence. He changed his lair several times in this month, and the new lair was getting farther and farther away from the Beijing base, but very close to those weaker small bases.
For example, the lair of the psychic zombie king is not far from the sixth base. The sixth base is a small base with a total population of less than 30,000. The overall strength of the base is weak, and the boss of the base is only a fourth-level mutant. It is a good choice as a zombie reserve granary.
Fortunately, the Jingshi base prepared for this in advance and notified all the surrounding small bases. The Sixth Base paid special attention and discovered the abnormality of the zombie swarm in the first time. Otherwise, the entire base might be occupied by the zombie swarm one day, and people outside would not know that the Sixth Base had been wiped out.
The group of zombies hid in a small village. Gu Jinsheng and his companions got off the car one thousand meters away from the outskirts of the village and sneaked in on foot, for fear that the mental zombie king would hear their movements.
If Ji An still had his psychic powers, he could find the zombie king's hiding place by just using them and being more careful. Now that he has no powers, they can only search door to door.
Zombies hate sunlight the most. They almost always hide and sleep during the day. Only at night do they hunt.
It was daytime and the sun was shining brightly outside. When Ji An and his companions sneaked in, they could hardly see any zombies. However, it might also be because this was an outlying area.
Ji An walked with Gu Jinsheng. Gu Jinsheng gave Ji An a lot of self-defense items, not to mention hand-held wooden bombs, as well as smoke bombs and □□.
Of course, the firewood had not been lit yet, and Ji An stuffed them all into the space bracelet he made.
Even though one of Gu Jinsheng's supernatural powers was destroyed, he was still one of the best masters in the base, so the two of them took the most dangerous middle section.
We encountered more zombies along the way than other teams.
Turning a corner, Ji An saw a group of zombies on duty outside. This was not the case with other zombie groups. They hid during the day and came out at night. They didn't like sunlight. This was the nature of the zombie group.
But these zombies have now overcome their nature and are even performing their duties in an organized and disciplined manner, which is a bit scary.
Ji An and Gu Jinsheng looked at each other, and the two of them sneaked in quietly.
Although Ji An no longer has special powers, he is not afraid at all. He still dares to sneak up on the zombies. Ji An's footsteps are so light that the last zombie in the team didn't even notice him.
Ji An raised his knife and stabbed it into the brain of the last zombie. His strength was so great that he actually pierced the zombie's skull directly.
The zombie died silently without even reacting, while the other zombies had no idea that a zombie was missing from their team and had already walked away.
Gu Jinsheng frowned slightly and shook his head at Ji An, disapproving of his action just now. Ji An smiled at Gu Jinsheng. The reason why he did this was just to prove to Gu Jinsheng that although he no longer had superpowers, he did not become a little chicken who needed protection.
Ji An raised his knife and cut open the zombie's head quickly and neatly, picking out a zombie crystal core from it.
This zombie crystal core has a lot of impurities, is not transparent enough, and is a faint blue color. It should be a level one, early or middle stage, water-based zombie crystal core.
Ji An did not mind the low-level zombie crystal core. He wiped the zombie crystal core with a specially made disinfectant wipe and put it into the space on his bracelet.
