Chapter 31 Mummified Corpse
Upon hearing this, Chen Yunfei flew into a rage. He frowned and stood in front of Youxiang and Qiao Yan, saying, "Honestly, there are more and more blind people after the apocalypse. They don't even know their own worth before they dare to talk nonsense here."
The scarred man grinned, the hideous scar on his face contorting with his smile, and said in a sarcastic tone, "Brother, trying to be a hero and save the damsel in distress? But there's a time and place for heroism, don't end up getting yourself into trouble and not even being able to save the damsel in distress."
The six men behind him raised their guns in unison, the dark muzzles pointing directly at Qin Zhuo and his companions.
Qin Zhuo's expression was cold and stern. "There's gasoline here. If you fire your guns, it will create an open flame and cause an explosion. Do you want to die together?"
The scarred man's arrogant expression faltered slightly. Qin Zhuo's reminder made him remember this, and he suddenly felt a little scared.
He didn't want to risk his life, so he rolled his eyes and said, "Let's go outside and take care of this. I can't bear to waste this gasoline."
Qin Zhuo knew that in the current environment, it would be inconvenient for him to use his special abilities, so he simply replied, "Okay."
The group walked together to an open area outside, and the warehouse where the gasoline was stored was also closed.
As soon as they stood still, the scarred man and his group opened fire, bullets whistling through the air.
"Earth wall!" Chen Yunfei shouted in a low voice.
The ground surged instantly, and a thick earthen wall rose rapidly, steadily blocking all the bullets with muffled "bang bang bang" sounds.
Upon seeing this, a hint of surprise flashed in the scarred man's eyes, but he quickly regained his arrogant demeanor.
"So you're superhumans. In that case, we won't make things difficult for you. The gasoline is ours, but we don't want the woman. You can just leave."
Upon hearing this, Youxiang's face turned bright red with anger. She put her hands on her hips, like an enraged little rabbit, and shouted, "Why should we! This is what we found! You bad guys can't take it away!"
Suddenly, crackling lightning burst forth from Qin Zhuo's hand, the blue-purple electric light leaping between his fingers like angry little snakes.
"The gasoline is ours."
The scarred man looked at the lightning flashing in Qin Zhuo's hand, a hint of fear flashing in his eyes. After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, it's yours."
Then, the scarred man winked at his henchmen and said, "Let's go."
Qin Zhuo kept a wary eye on the scarred man and his group, not daring to relax his gaze for a moment, for fear that they might try something else.
Just as he reached the door, the scarred man suddenly turned around, a sinister smile on his face, and threw something that looked like a grenade.
"Get out of the way!" Qin Zhuo shouted.
Qiao Yan reacted quickly, grabbing Youxiang and pulling her to the side.
Qin Zhuo and Chen Yunfei did not hesitate and rushed to the side.
However, the thing did not explode after it landed. Instead, it emitted a white smoke with a "poof" sound, which quickly spread and enveloped Qin Zhuo and the others.
Qin Zhuo felt a pungent smell enter his nostrils and quickly covered his nose. "Oh no, there's a sleeping drug in this smoke!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Zhuo felt dizzy and his vision blurred. In the end, he couldn't hold on any longer and fainted.
A few minutes later, the smoke that had filled the surrounding area gradually dissipated.
The scarred man stared at Qin Zhuo and the others, who were lying unconscious on the ground, powerless to resist. He grinned from ear to ear and let out a contemptuous and arrogant laugh.
"Hahaha, what kind of superhuman is he? He was easily knocked out by my sleeping drug!"
Just then, Yuka's voice suddenly rang out.
Why has everyone fainted?
The sudden sound startled the scarred man and his gang.
How come some people are alright?
The scarred man looked closely and realized that the one awake was actually Yuzuru, a seemingly harmless little girl. His face immediately filled with disdain. He brandished the gun in his hand and said viciously, "Oh, little brat, you weren't bewitched. But since you're alone, I advise you to be smart and back down, or you'll regret it!"
The scarred man didn't take Yuxiang seriously at all; in his eyes, this little girl was nothing to be afraid of.
As he spoke, he pointed the gun at Qin Zhuo, who had collapsed to the ground.
This man is dangerous; he must be killed first.
Upon seeing this, Youxiang immediately became anxious. Like a mother hen protecting her chicks, she unhesitatingly spread her arms and stood in front of everyone, shouting, "You bad person, you're not allowed to hurt Zhuozhuo!"
The scarred man couldn't help but sneer at Yuka's appearance.
"Hey little girl, if you'd just hang out with us for a bit, maybe I'd be in a good mood and let you off the hook."
Upon hearing this, Youxiang's face instantly turned bright red. She angrily waved her hands, sending two water balls hurtling towards the scarred man.
The scarred man nimbly dodged, easily avoiding the attack, and taunted, "Oh, you have superpowers? But water-based superpowers are the most useless. You think you can fight me?"
"You're useless!" Yu Xiang stomped her feet angrily, waving her hands incessantly, launching water balloons at the scarred man one after another.
The scarred man dodged left and right while deliberately teasing Yuzuka like he was playing with a cat.
His henchmen stood by, emitting bursts of harsh laughter.
Yu Xiang's face turned bright red with anger, and her eyes were practically spitting fire.
Seeing this, the scarred man became even more smug and said with a grin, "Little sister, I don't want to play this boring game with you anymore. If you don't behave, don't blame me for being impolite!"
As he spoke, he raised his hand and waved it, and a wind blade flew out with a "whoosh," directly shaving off a lock of Yu Xiang's hair.
The scarred man then deliberately said in a sarcastic tone, "Next time it won't be your hair, it might be your head, little sister."
Yuka lowered her head, her hands clenched into fists, her body trembling slightly with anger.
The scarred man thought that Yuka had given up resisting, so he grinned lewdly and walked toward Yuka, even reaching out his dirty hand to touch her face.
The surrounding underlings joined in the commotion, with cheers rising and falling.
Just as the scarred man's hand was about to touch Yuzuru's face, she suddenly raised her head, a strange red light flashing in her eyes, "Withdraw!"
The moisture on the scarred man's body disappeared rapidly at a visible speed, and in the blink of an eye, he turned into a dried-up corpse and fell straight down.
The underlings watched in horror as their once arrogant and domineering boss became a lifeless, dried-up corpse in the blink of an eye, and were instantly terrified.
"Ah! Run!"
Someone screamed first.
The other henchmen also seemed to wake up from a dream, turned around, and fled in all directions in a panic.
