Chapter 442 The heart of gossip is stirring!
Having learned from his experience of being electrocuted yesterday, Si Sheng chose to take the hit head-on when faced with the water jet and the flash of lightning!
Although Huang Pan dodged most of the water jets with his speed, he was still hit by the spreading electric current, and his whole body went numb!
Although Chi Yanzhou had clearly restrained the power of his supernatural ability, the electric current conducted along the water was still not something an ordinary person could easily withstand...
Both sides in the fight were instantly electrocuted, their bodies convulsing violently, their hair standing on end, their skin charred black, and some of the superpowered individuals even foaming at the mouth...
The group collapsed to the ground like dumplings being dropped into a pot...
He Zhuo looked at the group of "black people" lying on the ground, still unconsciously convulsing.
"Which backwater base did you come from? Daring to cause trouble at the entrance of Flameheart, do you not want to come here to purchase supplies again? Do you want to be blacklisted?"
Among the people queuing were naturally those with superpowers from the Rock and Starlight bases.
After they saw who had been knocked down, they immediately cursed their own teammates who had caused the trouble.
"Oh no! Isn't that Captain Huang, the one who runs rampant in our base? How did he mess with Yan Xin?"
"Damn it! It's bad enough that Huang Pan is running rampant in our own base, but now he's trying to kill us all!"
"If he's on the blacklist, doesn't that mean our Rocky Rock is on Flameheart's blacklist? Won't we get implicated too?"
"Wait... I just heard someone call Si Sheng. Isn't that the base commander and Captain Jin?"
"Holy crap! Why is the base commander causing trouble at the entrance of Flameheart?"
"Will we still be able to get into the 'Flameheart' base?"
......
Therefore, those who recognized members of their base among the fighters tried to distance themselves from the situation.
They were mainly afraid of incurring Yan Xin's wrath and losing their trading privileges, so they all shouted at the top of their lungs, their voices more urgent than the last.
"Guys! This has nothing to do with us... They're asking for it, that's their problem!"
"Although I am made of rock..."
"Although I am a star..."
"But we've wanted to join Flameheart for a long time, it's a pity we weren't selected!"
"Big shots, please understand! Don't punish us all! We've been queuing up properly and behaving honestly!"
Amidst the chaotic cacophony of explanations, a loud bird cry rang out from the sky.
"A mutant animal! It's a mutant animal!"
"What are you waiting for? Run!"
Gangzi, carrying Lu Nange, swooped down from the sky like a colorful lightning bolt, landing on the scene of the riot...
"It flew down...!"
"It looks like someone is on its back!!!"
A stir ran through the crowd, but before they could even make a move to run away, Lu Nange had already nimbly leaped down from Gangzi's back and stood beside Lu Xici...
Gangzi quickly shrunk to the size of an ordinary parrot, landed on her shoulder, tilted its head, and surveyed the group of charred "corpses" on the ground with a disdainful look.
"I...I know her! She's the captain of the Twelve Fiends!"
"Yes! It's Miss Lu... Lu Nange! She has a super powerful mutant parrot and a mutant plant that can fight!"
"That legendary level six ability user?"
"Yes, that's her! We saw her when we went to the market, although she always wore a mask..."
......
Lu Xici turned her head to look at her younger sister who had suddenly appeared beside her, a slight smile playing on her lips: "Why did you still come? Were you worried about us?"
Lu Nange spread her hands, her expression somewhat innocent: "My gossipy heart is itching..."
Lu Xici: "In the end... it was all for naught!"
At this moment, Si Sheng and his group, along with Huang Pan and his group, finally recovered from the intense numbness and convulsions...
Lin Shuang, her hair standing on end like a sea urchin from the electric shock, struggled to lift her head, enduring the tingling and numbness in her body, and hurriedly explained to Lu Nange...
"Miss Lu... Miss Lu! We're here to queue up to buy supplies! It was Huang Pan and his gang from the Rock Base who started this trouble first. They deliberately overturned our car and then verbally abused us with foul language!"
The man next to Huang Pan, whose eyebrows were already sparse and were now almost invisible from the electric shock, received Huang Pan's fierce glare and immediately retorted in a hoarse voice, sounding fierce but actually weak.
"Miss Lu... please don't listen to their side of the story!"
We...we just saw the line was too long and decided to leave on the spot. They were the ones pushing and shoving us from behind, and they even started hitting us!
It was clearly the people from Starlight who went too far! Now they're trying to shift the blame, we're innocent!
Upon hearing this, Jin Xiao was so angry that the veins on his forehead throbbed. If his body hadn't been still numb, he would have rushed up and kicked him a couple more times. He roared.
"Bullshit! It was clearly you bunch of scum who started this trouble! And you dare to play the victim and accuse me first!"
Standing beside Lin Shuang, Pepper, who also sported an afro and had ash on his face, blew on the blackened bangs on his forehead.
She looked at Lu Nange with a pitiful and aggrieved expression, her voice deliberately choked with sobs.
"Idol... Waaaaah... Miss Deer...!"
It was them! They started by using vulgar language and then...they touched me and Sister Shuang inappropriately, with malicious intent!
We were forced into this situation and only fought back to protect ourselves!
"Who knew they would be so unethical, even turning around and accusing us!" she said, while giving Huang Pan and his gang a accusing look.
When Huang Pan and his group saw Pepper and Lin Shuang's behavior, their hearts skipped a beat.
[Damn it! These two women know people from 'Flameheart'? They seem to be quite familiar with them?]
The man with sparse eyebrows felt uneasy, but he still tried to maintain his composure and confuse the situation.
"Um... Miss Lu,... you can't just believe everything you hear just because you know them! Everything needs evidence! It takes two to tango!"
Throughout the entire process, Si Sheng remained silent, his head slightly lowered, his eyes obscured by stray hairs.
She was so quiet that she looked like a troubled student caught by the teacher, completely out of place in the heated debate around her, and simply stood silently beside Jin Xiao.
Seeing Si Sheng's sullen expression, Jin Xiao lowered his voice and urged, "Si Sheng! Explain yourself! If you don't, Yan Ge and the others will misunderstand and think we're here to cause trouble!"
What Si Sheng said almost made Jin Xiao choke.
"What's there to explain? Fighting at the entrance of Flameheart... that's wrong of us."
Jin Xiao: "......"
Pepper: "You're acting all wronged? You cowardly bullies! Scum! It's clearly you who have provoked us time and time again!"
In the entire city of Beijing, which base doesn't know that your Panshi Base is a mess and practices slavery?
Aside from the oppressed slaves, every single one of the superhumans remaining in your base is pure scum! Degenerates!
Lin Shuang: "Miss Lu, you can ask the superhumans watching. From top to bottom, there's not a single good person in their Rock Base!"
As soon as the two finished speaking, the superhumans in the queue who came from the Rock Base and just wanted to purchase supplies showed an embarrassed and frustrated expression.
I dare not admit it, I only dare to internally rant and rave.
[Then... what about us, those of us who lined up obediently, just wanting to exchange for supplies to survive? We didn't choose to stay in this rock either!]
Jin Xiao: "Brother Yan... Captain Chi! We really didn't come here to cause trouble! We just wanted to buy some urgently needed supplies! It was Huang Pan and his gang of bastards who started this trouble first!"
