Chapter 196 He went to do dangerous things
Lu Yuyang's tense jawline relaxed slightly, but he still held her hand tightly.
At this moment, Mu Yanzhou had already begun treating the injured.
He walked to the most severely injured, blood-loss-prone, and barely clinging to life superhuman, hovering his hands above the wounds. A rich, pale golden light flowed into the injured person's body like a fountain of life.
The horrific wound began to wriggle and heal at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the injured man's pale face gradually regained a rosy hue, and his breathing became steady and strong.
This scene left the fat man and others around Lu Yuyang dumbfounded and amazed!
This was the first time Josie had ever seen such a scene.
Having this ability in the apocalypse is like being a reincarnated god!
No wonder so many people are willing to follow him wholeheartedly. Following him is like having countless extra lives!
Mu Yanzhou first treated the injuries of all his men, saying, "Everyone, don't wander around, take a good rest."
After giving instructions to his men, he walked over to the fat man and the others who were sitting on the ground, enduring the pain.
He looked at Qiao Xi and Lu Yuyang and said in a calm tone, "Your people are also injured. I'll treat them."
Without any hesitation, the fat man immediately extended his injured arm, grinning and saying, "Thanks a lot, buddy! Your superpower is amazing!"
Mu Yanzhou nodded slightly and released his superpower again. Soft golden light enveloped the fat man and the other injured people in turn, and their injuries healed quickly without leaving any scars.
After the treatment was completed, the night grew deeper, but the eerie red mist outside the window not only did not dissipate, but became even thicker and more active, like living tentacles wandering and lurking outside the window, watching intently, as if waiting for the next opportunity.
Josie looked worriedly at the writhing red mist, and couldn't help but think of Shen Han.
Shen Han's supernatural abilities are equally bizarre and powerful, defying the heavens to the extreme, which is why he later became the "Dark Emperor," a figure feared by all.
The red mist also gave her a sense of foreboding and an extremely strong ability to pollute the mind; its mastermind was definitely no ordinary person.
"No one should sleep tonight." Mu Yanzhou stood up, his voice breaking the silence, and voiced everyone's thoughts, "We must take the initiative and find and eliminate this thing hiding in the shadows! Otherwise, if we let our guard down, none of us will live to see the dawn."
"Yes, we need to find him as soon as possible!" Lu Yuyang responded immediately, his tone resolute.
They almost suffered total annihilation upon arrival. With such a powerful enemy present, who would dare to close their eyes?
Without rest, there's no energy left to fight it off.
"Shall we split into two groups and search separately?" Lu Yuyang suggested.
“No,” Mu Yanzhou shook his head in refusal, his attitude firm. “We can’t be separated. We must all act together, and everyone must stay by my side. Only within the protective range of my superpower can I detect abnormalities in time and carry out rescue and purification.”
Lu Yuyang also knew that his ice-type superpowers were better suited for direct attacks than for dealing with this kind of strange mind control, and Mu Yanzhou's suggestion was the safest option at present.
He suppressed his resentment and nodded, saying, "Okay, then I'll trouble you."
Mu Yanzhou glanced at Qiao Xi casually, then turned and walked towards his own group, quickly giving a few instructions.
Soon, everyone shouldered their luggage and equipment. Led by Mu Yanzhou and Lu Yuyang, with Qiao Xi following closely behind, they carefully pushed open the courtyard gate that seemed to separate two worlds and stepped into the thick, impenetrable scarlet mist.
Upon entering the red mist, even with the faint golden aura that Mu Yanzhou had released beforehand and enveloped everyone, the group still felt a chilling, irritating, and malicious emotion, like fine needles trying to pierce their minds, causing their hearts to waver.
The golden light rippled continuously, and the red mist hissed as it touched the pale gold light.
"Won't continuously releasing such a large-scale protective barrier consume too much of your superpower?" Josie couldn't help but ask, her brows furrowed.
Mu Yanzhou walked at the front, carefully surveying his surroundings, but also responded, "For now, we're only resisting this level of erosion, and the consumption is still within a controllable range. We'll need a lot of superpowers when we really deal with it."
He is already a fourth-tier powerhouse, with supernatural abilities far exceeding those of ordinary people.
The group struggled through the extremely low visibility of the red fog, traversing almost the entire deserted village, but still found no suspicious figures or traces of zombies.
The mastermind behind it all seemed to have completely merged into the red mist, omnipresent yet nowhere to be found.
“It’s cunning,” Mu Yanzhou stopped and focused on sensing his surroundings. He said in a deep voice, “It sensed the restraint of my abilities and deliberately avoided us, trying to exhaust our stamina and my special abilities.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuyang pondered for a moment, a decisive glint in his eyes: "Since it's hiding and refusing to come out, let's set a trap and lure it out!"
Mu Yanzhou thought for a moment and nodded in agreement: "Okay. I'll be the bait. My light-based ability will be the most attractive to it and will stimulate it the most."
"No!" Josie immediately objected, her voice urgent. "You are the key to our victory, and there can be absolutely no accidents! If it has some way to instantly subdue you, we're all doomed!"
She hesitated for a moment, then volunteered, "I'll go! My ability, besides escaping, isn't very offensive. It might underestimate me and be more likely to take the bait."
"Absolutely not!" Lu Yuyang rejected the idea without hesitation. "What if you get controlled and can't use your shapeshifting ability in time? I can't just stand by and watch you get into danger."
Mu Yanzhou immediately nodded in agreement: "Yes, it's too dangerous. Let's find someone else."
Without any hesitation, Lu Yuyang looked firmly at Mu Yanzhou: "I'll go. My rank isn't low, so I'm good enough as bait. If I really lure it out, you'll release me from control immediately so I can cooperate with you to deal with that bastard!"
After much thought, this is indeed the safest approach at present.
Mu Yanzhou nodded emphatically at the end: "Okay! Don't worry, I will cleanse the influence on you as soon as possible."
Once the plan was agreed upon, Lu Yuyang took a deep breath and voluntarily stepped out of the area protected by Mu Yanzhou's golden light.
The faint golden aura around him gradually disappeared, and the thick crimson mist, like sharks smelling blood, surged in from all directions, almost engulfing and engulfing him.
Josie and the others huddled in a corner formed by ruins, still firmly protected by Mu Yanzhou's protective golden light, nervously watching the outside world.
As she watched Lu Yuyang's figure grow increasingly blurry in the red mist until only a faint outline remained, her heart leaped into her throat, her fingers involuntarily curled tightly, and her nails dug deeply into her palms.
Time ticked by, and the surroundings were eerily quiet, save for the faint hissing sound of the flowing red mist, like a sigh.
"They're here!"
The fat man suddenly lowered his voice and gasped for breath, his voice trembling.
