Chapter 139 New Mission
Without informing Yang Xie and the others, Sui Cheng took Lu Zhi to the camp on the other side of Jiangba.
Chen Jiang was the first to discover them.
Upon seeing the lawyer beside him, his expression faltered for a moment, but he still managed to maintain his composure and wave to them: "Captain, Lawyer, you're back."
"Hmm, where's Yang Dui?" The attendant was looking for Yang Xie.
Chen Jiang pointed in a direction, and Sui Cheng nodded slightly before leading Lu Zhi there.
Yang Xie had just finished dealing with his business when he saw Sui Cheng and Lü Zhi walking over.
He first carefully examined the law enforcer, and before the attendant could speak, he asked, "Is everything alright?"
Sui Cheng nodded and said, "Yes, there are no problems now."
Yang Xie: "What about those vines in Xinghai City?"
Sui Cheng glanced at Lu Zhi, who raised an eyebrow and explained, "We've put them all away and dealt with all the alien species as well. If you have extra manpower, you can go and take it back from there."
Yang Xie didn't doubt his words and nodded, saying, "Okay."
After a while, he took something from the table and handed it to his entourage, saying, "You've come at just the right time. Go do a mission."
Lawyer frowned. Why did they have to do a mission so soon after they left? He still wanted to...
No, I can't think about it anymore. If I keep thinking about it, they really won't let me go to bed.
The attendant didn't notice his subtle expression. He flipped through the documents Yang Xie had given him and found they were full of names and photos of people.
"Who are these people?" Most of the people on the document were foreigners, and he already had a vague idea in his mind.
"Those people who escaped from Base One," Yang Xie said, "It took some time to compile a list of these people. Yesterday, we contacted the news agency and found the whereabouts of some of them. They are in Pingshanba in the north. I suspect that they have a stronghold there."
The passenger asked, "Is it plunder or something from the new generation?"
Yang Xie said, "Plunder. The new generation..."
He glanced at Lu Zhi and said, "After Cecil was seriously injured and ran away, the new generation has been much more well-behaved lately, but I suspect they are brewing something big, so we need to be extremely careful."
“Don’t worry so much.” Lu Zhi put his hand on Sui Cheng’s body, leaned against him, and said in a nonchalant manner, “If I see him again, I’ll just kill him.”
"Cecil is not the strongest of the new generation; it's just that his spatial ability is special."
"What happened to Zhong Ling's temporary squad after she was rescued?"
"You want to ask about her younger brother, Zhong Qi, right?"
Yang Xie said in a deep voice, "I faced him at Base One. Zhong Qi doesn't have dual-elemental abilities; he has three."
"Three systems?" The attendant's eyes trembled slightly.
Yang Xie nodded and said, "Yes, he was originally a dual element of wind and fire. He probably gained another special ability after being modified by the new generation. That kid is powerful, but he is arrogant and will show his weakness if you provoke him. If you encounter him next time, you can just take care of him. It will be troublesome if he grows up."
"Okay." Sui Cheng wrote down the names of the people on the document, then looked at the location of Pingshan Dam on the map and found that it actually passed through Base No. 1.
"Hey, how's Base One doing?" Sui Cheng had only heard that their base had won the battle, but hadn't asked about the specific results.
“Guan Qi, like Leng Tianrui, was freed from mind control. Although their base was plundered and controlled this year, nearly half of the people were still victims. So A Yuan signed a merger agreement with them. Now it’s no longer called Base No. 1. It belongs to our base and uses the name of the city where they are located, called Anzhou.” Yang Xie slowly explained to him.
"What about the Azure Dragon Base?" Sui Cheng felt that if things continued like this, it would be only a matter of time before the three bases merged. As long as the range of the alien species' activities was controlled, the apocalypse could be stabilized.
"Bai Xuefeng is looking for someone, who is probably in Anzhou right now. You might run into him on your trip."
Before leaving, Yang Xie asked if he didn't plan to take Chen Jiang and the others with him.
Upon hearing that a third wheel was going to follow, Lu Zhi gave a disgruntled snort.
Sui Cheng patted the back of his hand and said to Yang Xie, "They are probably still bothered by Lu Zhi's identity, and it would be more convenient for Lu Zhi and me to move around together."
"Well, with the law enforcement officers around, there's no need to worry about your safety."
After the day Lu Zhi disappeared, Zhang Jun told them that Lu Zhi might be the strongest alien species that had ever appeared. If they could not control or kill it, it would be humanity's most powerful enemy.
Only then would they be grateful that they had someone with them.
However, Zhang Jun still disagreed with Sui Cheng's approach. In his view, there was always uncertainty about the alien species. Perhaps what he showed was just interest. If he got tired of playing with it one day, he would become an alien species that no one could control.
The passenger's response was: "If that day ever comes, I will kill him myself."
...
Yang Xie arranged for people to prepare supplies for them on their journey.
Sui Cheng and Lu Zhi returned to the car first.
"Do you think Zhong Qi's situation might be the same as mine?" Sui Cheng spread out his hands, and the vines that appeared in his palms were larger than they had been a few days ago.
“How can they be the same!” Lu Zhi sneered. “Xuan Linwen said that a different species lives inside Zhong Qi’s body. They have a symbiotic relationship, and the third ability comes from that different species.”
Sui Cheng frowned and said, "So, when he used his third ability, he wasn't Zhong Qi anymore, but that mutant?"
“Yes, probably.” Lu Zhi squeezed his hand, leaned back, and quickly analyzed the current situation, saying, “The base’s affairs have nothing to do with me. It depends on what your superiors want to do. Plundering is already like stray dogs. The only worry is the new generation.”
"Where do you think they might be hiding?" Lu Zhi muttered to himself.
"It's hard to find," the passenger replied.
"Hmm...not necessarily."
It's unclear what Lu Zhi was thinking, but he snapped his fingers, then leaned closer to Sui Cheng, kissed the corner of his lips, and smiled, "After merging with my main body, my mental power is much stronger than before; it can now spread at least ten kilometers."
"so?"
"Controlling mutants isn't something only the new generation can do." Lü Zhi is now considered the leader among the mutants, so ordering around two mutants who can understand human speech is no problem for him.
But when he released his mental energy, his expression became somewhat strange.
The passenger asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Looking at him, Lu Zhi's eyes held a hint of accusation and helplessness: "I mean, did you really have to clean so thoroughly when you were cleaning? There wasn't a single alien species within a ten-mile radius."
Sui Cheng smiled and said, "That's normal. Let alone the area within ten miles, this place has already been reclaimed, and there shouldn't be any left within a hundred miles."
