Later, several more people came, one of whom was the earth-type mutant on the third floor.
"I'll help you!" the man said.
"Thank you, I'm Leng Yi, what's your name?" Leng Yi pulled out the knife and used his supernatural powers to burn the knife red.
"My name is Wang Xiao." After saying that, Wang Xiao squatted down. He wanted to use the soil underground.
"Can you build a defensive wall?" Leng Yi asked.
"Let me try!" Wang Xiao supported himself on the ground with his hands and activated his supernatural powers. Soon, a two-meter-high earth wall appeared in front of everyone.
Before everyone had time to be happy, a catfish rushed over and with a "bang", the earth wall was knocked down by it.
Leng Yi quickly dodged, raised his long sword and chopped it down.
With a "swish", half of the catfish's head was cut off and it fell down.
Soon more catfish rushed over. Wang Xiao kept building a wall, but today's catfish seemed to be more powerful than yesterday's, and the wall was broken up before he could connect it.
Fortunately, he gave Leng Yi a chance to catch his breath. He could kill the attacking catfish the moment the earth wall blocked the catfish, and then move to another position when the earth wall dissipated.
This way the people inside can get temporary safety.
Wang Hao took out his gun and shot at the catfish while saying, "Hit their eyes. Their eyes are a weak spot. You might even kill them. Aim quickly!"
Everyone raised their guns. A few people shot the catfish a few times before realizing that they were invulnerable to swords and bullets, so they focused on shooting the eyes.
Soon another person with special abilities joined.
He had wood-related abilities, and his hands transformed into sharp wooden thorns and stabbed the catfishes.
The catfish was pierced through and soon became unable to move.
It seems that even with the bonus of super powers, they are not so invulnerable.
"Wang Xiao, stop building the wall, attack like this brother." Leng Yi shouted.
The earth wall is vulnerable, so it would be more useful to transform into weapons and attack.
As soon as Wang Xiao saw the attack method of the wood-type mutant, he immediately understood. With a thought, sharp earth spikes emerged from the ground, and "puff, puff" pierced through the catfish on the ground, killing many of them at once.
The catfishes were so frightened that they retreated one after another.
When the wood-type ability user saw that this method worked, he followed suit and made a lot of wooden thorns emerge from the ground and stabbed the catfish. He stabbed some of them at once, like a string of candied haws, strung together and scared the catfish.
"That's awesome!" Everyone protected in the circle was stunned. It was the first time they saw superpowers being so useful.
Suddenly, a person not far away let out a shrill scream, and many catfish gave up this place and gathered around.
In a short while, the man was eaten.
The catfish that ate the man grew at a speed visible to the naked eye, becoming longer and bigger, even its skin became shinier, and its crawling speed became faster.
"Oh no! The person who was eaten was a mutant." Leng Yi said, "They will level up after eating mutants."
The catfish seemed to have become the leader, making a strange call, and many catfish followed.
The other catfish seemed to have received the message as well, and began to attack nearby psychics.
The upgraded catfish led a large group of catfish and rushed towards Leng Yi and his team. There were three people with special abilities on their side.
Wang Xiao and the wood-type mutant attacked continuously with their spikes, and they output as much as they could, otherwise they might both die.
But soon the two of them had almost exhausted their special abilities, and if they continued like this they would not be able to survive.
Leng Yi knew he couldn't hide the crystal core anymore, so he called Wang Xiao, "Wang Xiao, drag all the dead catfish over here."
"And that brother, please help me too. Drag all those things over here. I can use them!"
Their earth thorns and wooden thorns were very useful. They had just killed a lot of them, and the catfish were greedy for the energy of the psychics, so they had not had time to eat the dead catfish.
Although the two men didn't know what the dead catfish were for, they knew that he must have his reasons for saying that. They used the wooden and earthen spikes in their hands to stab the catfish, and finally caught a string of catfish and dragged them over.
"Wang Hao, hurry!" Leng Yi shouted.
Wang Hao understood what he meant, "Xiao Zhang, Xiao Li, help me cut open the catfish's head!"
"Ah?" The two were stunned, not knowing why they had to deal with those disgusting catfish.
"No time to explain, hurry up!" Wang Hao yelled, and the two of them hurried to help cut the catfish.
The other people who didn't have special powers had nothing to do anyway, so they just followed along.
After cutting open the catfish's head, Wang Hao dug out the crystal cores inside one by one. Without even having time to wipe them clean, he gave them directly to Leng Yi.
Leng Yi grabbed a handful and stuffed it into Wang Xiao's hand, "Absorb the energy inside!"
Wang Xiao looked at him in surprise. No wonder he saw the brain of the fish on the third floor had been cut open when he woke up in the morning. He clearly remembered that Leng Yi only cut the belly of the fish last night and did not touch the brain.
I thought it was cut by some curious person, but it turns out that he discovered the secret of these catfish.
Soon Wang Hao dug out several more, and Leng Yi gave them to the wood-type mutant.
"Brother, absorb him!"
The man quickly took it and said, "My name is Cheng Zheng."
Leng Yi nodded, "It's for replenishing energy, absorb it quickly!"
"Thank you!" Cheng Zheng nodded.
As soon as the two absorbed the energy of the crystal core, they immediately felt full of strength again.
When everyone saw how useful this thing was, they all helped to dig it up.
"Everyone, hurry up and dig out more so that they can better protect us." Wang Hao shouted.
"Yes!" Everyone answered in unison. Now they could only rely on these people with special abilities to survive. If they could provide them with energy, they would no longer be useless.
Wang Xiao and Cheng Zheng knew the function of the crystal core, so they worked harder. They killed a bunch of catfish and dragged them over to Wang Hao and others to take the crystal core.
The catfish corpses here have piled up into a mountain. The catfish finally got scared. Knowing that these three psychics are not easy to deal with, they retreated and ran towards the buildings.
Suddenly, screams, children's cries, and adults' calls were heard from the building.
There was the sound of catfish leaping up the stairs, the teeth-grinding sound of chewing bones, and all kinds of strange calls.
The street became quiet instead.
Leng Yi and the others sat on the ground, gasping for breath. The rest of the people did not speak. Although they had survived the disaster, they were still frightened.
"Everyone, dig out all the crystal cores and give them to the three psychics. They saved our lives!" said Wang Hao.
"Thank you, big brother, thank you, big brother!" More than a dozen people bowed to the three psychics. They knew that if it weren't for these three people, they would have died.
"Let's all take a break!" Leng Yi waved his hand.
But no one was willing to stop. They dragged all the catfish corpses over and dug out the crystal cores. Wang Hao counted and found that there were still more than a hundred.
Leng Yi divided the crystal core into three equal parts and gave one to Wang Xiao and one to Cheng Zheng.
"We don't need so much!" The two were a little embarrassed. If it weren't for Leng Yi, they wouldn't have known that there was this thing in the catfish, and they might even have been eaten by the catfish.
"Take it. Without you, I can't protect them alone!" Leng Yi smiled. "Keep it. It will be useful in the future."
The two of them stopped being polite and put the crystal core away. (End of this chapter)
