After not seeing each other for more than half a year, Cheng Yang looked more mature than before, with wheat-colored skin and a strong and sturdy body.
But when he spoke, he still sounded like a young fool: "Captain Qi! Are you really the wanted criminal from the Moon-Chasing Base?"
As the son of the commander of Yangyao Base, Cheng Yang now of course knows that Qi Xing is a wanted criminal in Zhuyue Base and all the bases are trying to capture him.
When Cheng Yang first received this notice, he refused to believe it.
Qi Xing was originally promoted to deputy captain by Song Yao. How could he be a wanted criminal?
Now that he really sees Qi Xing again, the first thing Cheng Yang thinks of is this question.
Qi Xing knew he was stupid, but he didn't expect him to be so stupid. He asked, "What else?"
The dagger in his hand was still against Cheng Yang's neck. Without any surprise at seeing an old friend again, he coldly threatened: "If you dare to tell on me, I'll kill you first."
Cheng Yang was stunned, feeling that Captain Qi, who had taught him many combat skills, seemed to have changed.
Seeing this, Jiang Zhaosu quickly pushed Qi Xing and asked him to remove the dagger from Cheng Yang's neck.
"Haha, he's just kidding you."
Jiang Zhaosu pointed at himself and asked Cheng Yang: "Do you still remember me?"
Cheng Yang's eyes moved to Jiang Zhaosu's face, which was much rounder than before: "Fugui, you've gained weight."
Jiang Zhaosu: “…”
Can she speak? What does fat mean? She is just strong!
"Actually, we came to you this time because we have something to tell you."
Jiang Zhaosu cut off the beginning and the end and briefly told Cheng Yang about Cen Jiao's current situation.
Cheng Yang was truly distraught when he heard that something had happened to Cen Jiao: "What? Sister Jiaojiao is at the Dawn Base! And she's lost her memory!"
"No wonder I asked the Monitoring Eye to pass on a message to Sister Jiaojiao, but she didn't respond."
Cheng Yang stamped his feet anxiously: "My dad said that Huo Jinran at the Dawn Breaking Base is the worst kind of jerk. Seeing that the Moon Chasing Base has lost its commander, he wants to take advantage of the situation and occupy their base!"
Cheng Yang immediately made up his mind: "No, I have to ask my dad for permission to go to the Dawn Base to find Sister Jiaojiao!"
Jiang Zhaosu, who had originally prepared a long set of rhetoric, said: "Hmm..."
Ever since Qi Xing acquired dual abilities and became second only to the male protagonist in combat power, he seemed to have lost interest in thinking.
He said Cheng Yang didn't need to lie at all, and Jiang Zhaosu was originally quite skeptical about this.
Who knew it would go so smoothly.
Jiang Zhaosu looked up at Qi Xing.
Qi Xing was wiping the blood stains off the dagger with a handkerchief. When he felt her gaze, he lowered his eyes and looked at her. He seemed to see her surprise and raised his eyebrows proudly.
Jiang Zhaosu retracted his gaze and continued, unconscionably, "Cheng Yang, Captain Qi didn't intend to become a wanted criminal. There are many hidden secrets and misunderstandings. We can release you, but when you return, can you please not report us to the base?"
Of course, if Cheng Yang really exposed it, it would be nothing.
Anyway, they are all wanted criminals and there is no room for advancement.
Even Jiang Zhaosu couldn't save his life.
"Of course!" Cheng Yang agreed immediately, saying firmly, "I never believed Captain Qi was that kind of person! There must be a misunderstanding!"
“Yes, yes, yes!”
Seeing him being so understanding, Jiang Zhaosu also smiled and reached out to Cheng Yang's tightly bound waist: "I'll untie the rope for you."
"I'll do it." Qi Xing suddenly said.
Then he used a dagger to cut the rope on Cheng Yang's body.
There were a few cuts that were not steady and almost cut Cheng Yang's fingers.
Cheng Yang, frightened by his actions, broke out in a cold sweat: "...Thank you, Captain Qi."
"Please treat Cheng Yang's neck injury." Jiang Zhaosu pushed Qi Xing again.
Qi Xing stood there indifferently. After Jiang Zhaosu shook his arm, he reached out and casually wiped Cheng Yang's neck to help heal the small wound on his neck caused by the knife.
Cheng Yang watched the two of them interacting and felt something was odd, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
"Cheng Yang, do you know Chen Yuzhu?" Jiang Zhaosu couldn't help but ask.
"Huh?" Cheng Yang, flexing his stiff fingers, said, "Chen Yuzhu? Of course I know her. She's the captain of Team Six."
"Wow, Sister Yuzhu has become the captain!" Jiang Zhaosu said in surprise.
"Captain Chen is amazing. She has wiped out several high-level mutants in a row. She is bold and careful, and was directly promoted from an ordinary team member to the captain of the guard team. The area she is responsible for guarding is exactly our building." Cheng Yang told everything he knew.
Jiang Zhaosu:?
She remembered that Chen Yuzhu awakened earth-related abilities.
Then, would Chen Yuzhu find out that she dug a tunnel to bring Cheng Yang out?
Just as he finished speaking, the room they were in suddenly began to shake violently. The walls groaned under the heavy weight, and long, deep cracks appeared, sending dust flying everywhere.
Seeing that the house was about to collapse, Qi Xing reacted extremely quickly, picked up Jiang Zhaosu, and jumped out of the window without hesitation.
"Hey! Captain Qi!" Cheng Yang shouted in fear behind them, "Don't forget me! I don't have any special abilities!"
A vine sprang out like a snake, quickly wrapped around his waist and dragged him out of the room.
"A superpowered person is coming?!"
Jiang Zhaosu hugged Qi Xing tightly and asked in surprise: "Why didn't I smell it?"
"If an earth-type mutant dives deep enough underground, their aura will be completely blocked by the soil, so it's normal that they can't smell it." Qi Xing replied, "This person must have experience dealing with mutants."
In order to observe the surrounding situation more conveniently, Qi Xing tapped his toes lightly, stepped into the air, and jumped directly into the air dozens of meters high.
Thanks to him, Cheng Yang, who was hanging only by a vine, was forced to experience the thrill of "high-altitude bungee jumping" for free.
The wind whistled in his ears, and Cheng Yang was suspended in mid-air like a bent shrimp. Looking at the ground getting farther and farther away from him, his heartbeat was so rapid that it almost jumped out of his chest. He shouted in fear and shock: "Captain Qi, I haven't seen you for over half a year. How did you turn into Spider-Man?!"
It can’t be such a coincidence, right?
Jiang Zhaosu was still thinking about Chen Yuzhu when an earth-type mutant jumped out.
Qi Xing flicked his hand, and several thick vines suddenly emerged from the ground. The vines folded in half like ropes and then stabbed fiercely into the ground.
In a blink of an eye, the ground was riddled with holes.
Under such a ferocious attack, a tall and thin figure in a dark green uniform nimbly jumped out from the crack in the ground.
At the same time, a thick, high wall made of piled earth rose from the ground. Several sharp, tough earth cones shot out of the air like bamboo shoots after rain, heading straight for Qi Xing and Jiang Zhaosu in the air.
Jiang Zhaosu saw the face of the woman standing on the high wall clearly, his eyes lit up instantly, and he shouted: "Sister Yuzhu! Sister Yuzhu, it's me!"
The woman's movements suddenly froze, the earth cone hovering in mid-air, and her voice was filled with a hint of surprise: "Fugui, Mr. Qi..."
It was actually Chen Yuzhu!
Seeing that she has become so strong, calm and decisive now, Jiang Zhaosu is sincerely happy for her.
