Chapter 68: After spending so long with Jiang Jie, his heart seemed to have hardened.
After Jiang Jie left, Lin Mian listened to him and stayed in the tent obediently.
There were a lot of people crowded around, all of them were afraid of the sudden alien creatures, and tried their best to hide themselves in the corner, so they inevitably bumped into the tents when they moved.
Lin Mian didn't say anything. It was understandable to be panicked at this time. He could understand it.
But some people took his silence as weakness and took the opportunity to stir up trouble.
The person who was kicked by Jiang Jie before was still huddled in the corner against the wall, with a dull pain in his stomach, and it hurt every time he breathed.
He gritted his teeth and looked at the tent next to him. The only person inside was the weak-looking boy. They were just ordinary people, so why was he so lucky?
I just rushed over in a hurry, but ended up getting kicked by his companion. Are people with superpowers so great? Fuck!
The more he thought about it, the more resentful he felt. The pent-up emotions from recent events began to boil over in his heart. He stared at the tent and began to feel malicious.
He has been standing by their side these past few days, watching them take out food to cook from time to time. There must be a lot of supplies hidden inside.
The mutant is now dealing with the mutant. From the noise just now, it seems that he is still only level B. Now he hasn't come back for such a long time, maybe he has died at the hands of the other party.
He thought maliciously that even if he didn't die, he would probably be crippled.
If that's the case, then only this young man will be left to guard these things...
He glanced around and said, "Hey! Can't we fold up the tent at this time? It takes up so much space, it can hide several people!"
Someone nearby heard what he said and couldn't help but glance at the tent. It was indeed in the way, and echoed, "Yeah, let's put it away now!"
Someone chimed in, and the man got excited. "Don't be so selfish. It's time to save your life, but you're still only thinking about your own enjoyment. Make room for others."
As he continued to instigate, many people began to become emotional out of panic and fear, and many of them spoke.
But there were also some normal people. "That mutant just saved us. If it weren't for him, who knows how many people here would have been killed or injured. They're still dealing with mutants. How dare you bully their companions!"
The man glared at the words and saw that the person who spoke was an older woman. He raised his voice and said, "What do you know? He killed the Altered Species to protect the boy in the tent. We were just incidental. Didn't you see how viciously he kicked me just now? He doesn't care about our lives at all!"
"I think you're just holding a grudge against that kick," the middle-aged woman said immediately upon hearing the sound. "You were the one who rushed over to pull up their tent. You're not young anymore, but you're so naive. You don't care why they killed the Altered Species, but you only say that they saved you. And you still have the nerve to complain like that!"
Her words made everyone around her laugh, and the tense atmosphere became a little more relaxed.
The man was furious at her words and said, "I'm doing this for everyone's good. I just want more people to hide here!"
"Stop trying to flatter yourself with all that high-sounding talk. How many people can hide in such a tiny place? Besides, even if you stick to the wall, you'll still be destroyed by the mutants," the middle-aged woman said without giving up. "I think you're just taking advantage of the psychic's absence to bully the young man. Are you after his supplies?"
When she said this, even the faces of the few people who had just echoed her became red.
The man, whose thoughts were suddenly touched, glared at her angrily and sneered, "What about you? You're helping them so much because you like them. But you're old and ugly, and they probably won't accept you even if you throw yourself at them!"
"you……"
What he said was so unpleasant that the middle-aged woman was so angry that she was speechless for a moment.
Finally, her arrogance was suppressed, and the man felt relieved. "I was right about you being speechless. Auntie, you..."
"You're really noisy."
Before he could finish his words, Lin Mian opened the tent and came out.
He originally didn't want to pay attention to the other party, but he really despised those who made up obscene remarks when they were in the wrong and thought they had the upper hand, but in fact they only showed their disgusting and inferiority.
When he saw someone coming out, he subconsciously took a step back and leaned against the wall. This was because he was traumatized by the previous kick.
But when she saw his thin and frail appearance, she came to her senses, stood up straight and said, "Why, come out to your mistress...ah--!!"
Before he could utter any dirtier words, he was hit on the thigh by a wooden cannon and instantly fell to his knees screaming in pain.
The people nearby also exclaimed and stepped back, huddled together for a moment.
Looking down at the other person's body hunched over in pain, Lin Mian raised his hand and placed the still hot wooden can mouth against the back of his head, "I told you, you're really noisy."
The expression on his face was very cold, and for a moment, there was even a hint of Jiang Jie's shadow in him.
Feeling the wooden barn against him, the man suppressed his scream of pain, shaking his body and not daring to say another word.
Seeing this, Lin Mian took back the wooden basket and held it in the other hand. He grabbed the back of his collar with his right hand and dragged him out.
The man struggled because of the pain in his thigh, but failed to break free.
Lin Mian is a person with special abilities after all. Although he is not as powerful as the attacking type, he is stronger than ordinary people and has no problem dragging an adult.
He was still holding a wooden cannon in his hand, so the others didn't dare to block his way and moved aside consciously.
Lin Mian dragged the man and threw him directly into the pile of corpses of the mutants that Jiang Yan had just killed. The man was so scared that he wanted to get up, but because of his thigh injury, he was covered in gunpowder and blood and couldn't get up.
After watching him struggle in vain for a while, Lin Mian raised his foot and stepped on the wound on his thigh. The other party turned pale in pain and fell to the ground.
"You're even afraid of the corpses of these Altered Creatures, so what right do you have to criticize the people who killed them?"
"I, I was wrong! I won't dare to do it again!" The man was in a mess, and his face was covered with snot and tears, looking very miserable.
Lin Mian was not moved. He felt that he had been with Jiang Jie for too long and his heart seemed to have become hardened. Looking at the other person, he just felt disgusted.
He switched the gun back to his right hand and raised it to the man's head, "No, you're just getting scared."
"No! You can't kill me! The people in the safe zone will..."
"Bang--"
The other party's noisy voice finally quieted down. Lin Mian put down the wooden cannon, retracted his foot, and turned his head. "He was killed by the mutant, right?"
No one dared to say no at this moment, and everyone nodded.
Lin Mian turned around, kicked a piece of the mutant's corpse to cover the man's face, and turned away.
The crowd still made way for him, and they couldn't help but think in their hearts that anyone who could hang out with people with special abilities was definitely not a good person.
Lin Mian paused halfway, turned around, looked at the middle-aged woman who had just spoken for him, and said softly, "Thank you, Auntie."
The woman was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on her face. "Hey, it's just a small matter."
Lin Mian nodded to her again and walked back to the tent.
As they watched his figure disappear, everyone else inexplicably relaxed a little, suddenly feeling that having such a tent was quite good, at least they didn't have to face each other directly.
After entering his private little space and putting away the wooden warehouse, Lin Mian sat on the air mattress with his knees hugged, exhaled a long breath, and rested his head on his knees.
He didn't like killing people very much, but he knew that this man had to die today.
In addition to not being able to keep them because the other party has resentment towards them, it also serves as a warning to others, letting them know that they are not to be messed with.
I don’t know how many days I will have to stay in this place. During this period, I must at least make the people around me feel afraid.
He raised his head and saw blood on his hands, which must have been accidentally splashed on them just now.
Taking out a wet wipe from the space, he wiped it silently.
Having blood on his hands didn't feel good, no matter how many times he felt that way.
But at times like this, some things have to be done, whether you like it or not.
After wiping his hands, he leaned over and fell onto the air mattress.
Killing people is so tiring, he misses his brother...

Jiang Yan, whom he was thinking about, not only killed the alien creature he was facing, but also helped Qin Liang and the others kill it.
He didn't have sudden kindness, he just wanted the B-level crystal and it was just a convenience.
After putting the two crystals away, he turned around and prepared to leave.
There were two wooden bangs before, but I didn't know what happened.
But he noticed at that time that he didn't hear any noise caused by the alien creatures nearby. He thought it must have just been a conflict with someone, so he continued to deal with the situation here calmly.
The little rabbit looks soft and easy to bully, but he actually has a smart head and knows how to solve the problem.
"Mr. Jiang, wait a minute!" Seeing him about to leave, Qin Liang took two steps after him. "There are still some Altered Objects in other places that haven't been dealt with. Should we go together?"
When he saw the other party take action just now, he didn't expect that the other party was even more powerful than he had guessed. With such ability, he felt that no one from the military could be his match.
"What do those mutants have to do with me?" Jiang Jie raised his eyebrows nonchalantly when he was stopped by him. "With so many mutants, can't they be unable to deal with these things?"
Qin Liang choked. Not really, it was just that with the other person around, safety might be better guaranteed. He dealt with the alienated creatures so quickly, perhaps it could also reduce some casualties among ordinary people.
But looking at the other person's cold and emotionless face, he silently swallowed the words back and said, "Sorry to bother you."
He was sensible, so Jiang Jie turned around and left without hesitation.
"Boss, who is this great man? He is so strong!" After the team members who came with Qin Liang left, they dared to sigh. The B-level mutants that the three of them could barely deal with were like a piece of cake to the other party.
The wood-type mutant who was rescued by them earlier also pricked up his ears and eavesdropped.
Unfortunately, Qin Liang couldn't answer this question. He raised his hand and pushed his teammate's head away. "Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and go back to the team first."
The other party could only obey and stop asking questions, quickly following him and taking the wood-type mutant along with him.
