Chapter 194 Black Mud
Yang Xie and his group were surrounded when suddenly lightning flashed and thunder roared, and a net of lightning condensed in the air, pressing down slightly with great force.
The vehicle descended directly from the sky, a massive flash of lightning blasting a deep crater in the ground, sending smoke and ash flying everywhere, catching the group completely off guard.
With his help, Yang Xie and his gang's morale soared.
The law enforcement team resolved the issue even faster, and just as he was about to approach Suicheng, he sensed a strange force.
In the blink of an eye, the entire ground seemed to have melted away.
He belatedly realized that the anomaly did not originate on the island, but rather below it.
There are still things on this island that he hasn't discovered yet.
He had just contacted his clone and asked him to remind the passenger when the ground began to shake violently, as if the building was about to collapse.
The alarm suddenly went off, and it could be heard clearly throughout the entire island.
They can naturally sense it as they ride along.
Yang Xie's first thought was about Dang Hongyuan's safety. After turning on the bracelet, he found that the signal was completely cut off.
This made him very anxious.
The passengers noticed and a group of people huddled together, wary of the attack, blocking the onrushing assault.
"He should be alright," the attendant reassured Yang Xie.
Yang Xie rubbed his temples, nodded, and looked towards where Dang Hongyuan was.
One second everything was normal, but the ground beneath their feet began to shake even more violently. The iconic building on the island collapsed, followed by a deafening burst of flames.
It dyed the sky over the sea red.
“It’s A Yuan.” Yang Xie’s face was gloomy, and he could not hide the worry in his eyes.
The passenger panicked for a moment and quickly said, "Let's go take a look."
He was the fastest, transforming into a bolt of lightning and arriving at the destination a step faster than Yang Xie.
The collapsed building was engulfed in flames, and people were gradually escaping, with sounds of fighting coming from inside.
"He's inside." Yang Xie's tone was very certain.
"Something must have happened." Sui Cheng told the others to stay outside while he and Yang Xie went in to check.
The vines on its body felt the heat of the flames and curled up uncomfortably.
Ultimately, it is no match for the main body and has no ability to resist flames.
Sui Cheng felt a pang of heartache, so he hid the vines inside his clothes and switched his superpower to ice-based, condensing tiny ice flowers into the vine leaves.
The vines were happy and rubbed against his body, while Lu Zhi, who was in the distance, was unhappy.
It feels like there's someone else vying for his favor.
Following the strange aura he had discovered, Lu Zhi found that the island seemed to be descending, and a curtain of light gradually rose up, enveloping everyone inside.
Although the number of people at the Federation base is not as large as that at the China base, there are still a million people, which looks like they are trying to trap everyone inside.
The seawater was constantly churning, cracks appeared in the ground, and the seawater was bubbling and gurgling as if it were being boiled.
But the color of the seawater was becoming increasingly bizarre, turning into a pool of filth, carrying a power that disgusted him.
This power surged from underground, as if a floodgate had been opened.
Lu Zhi initially wanted to take another step forward, but his released spiritual power revealed that the source of this strange power was not here, but rather...
He looked toward the place where the fire was burning and was startled, because he sensed that his attendant was also there, so he rushed toward it without saying a word.
They were trapped inside a strange building; the fire outside couldn't get in, but they couldn't get out either.
"Ah Yuan, are you alright?" Yang Xie's first action was to check on Dang Hongyuan. Seeing that he was injured, a pang of heartache flashed in his eyes. He quickly bandaged him up and asked him what had happened.
Dang Hongyuan rubbed his temples and said, "During the negotiations, the people from the Federation suddenly went back on their word. Their leader, William, apparently received some information and turned against us on the spot. This room was specifically designed to trap people with superpowers. I suspect they were prepared from the beginning. Long Zhan and the others chased after them. Didn't you see them?"
Sui Cheng shook his head and said, "No, there are people fleeing outside. We haven't found Captain Long and the others. Moreover, the signal on the island has been cut off, and we can't contact anyone."
Dang Hongyuan's bracelet had been destroyed in the fight, so he was unaware of this.
"Our most urgent task is to get out of here first."
Don't touch it.
Seeing that his companion was about to touch the wall, Dang Hongyuan quickly stopped him: "The fire outside is very big. Although you can't feel the temperature inside, you can feel the wall."
"I'll give it a try." Yang Xie sensed that this fire was also a form of energy, so he decided to give it a shot.
However, he had already expended a lot of energy and could only control the fire from spreading further.
"Try this." The attendant took out several miniature bombs from his bag and wedged them into the scorching hot door crack. They didn't even need to detonate them; the flames would activate the bombs.
With a loud bang, the whole house shook a few times.
Fragments flew, grazing the face of the passenger and leaving a trail of blood.
Now look what happened! The vines that were cooling themselves by clinging to the ice suddenly exploded, injuring Suicheng. What's the difference between this and taking his life?
"Fuck the hell out!" Lu Zhi's furious voice rang out, and the long, raging vines pried open the entire roof.
Sui Cheng wiped his face, and the wound healed automatically without any impact. But Lu Zhi was like a madman, no longer afraid of the heat, and like a towering tree, he sheltered them from the heat.
"Has it evolved?" Dang Hongyuan and Yang Xie asked, looking at the ever-growing vines.
"Yes." Sui Cheng nodded, not hiding anything, "He ate that alien creature from the seabed."
"Is that the one that helped the Federation base hide its location?" Dang Hongyuan asked in surprise.
"Um."
As they talked, they left. Just as they stepped outside, they saw Lu Zhi rushing towards Sui Cheng, grabbing his shoulders and looking him up and down anxiously, asking, "Are you hurt? Does it hurt?"
"Every bush and tree looks like an enemy soldier," Sui Cheng laughed at him.
"Get back here right now." Lu Zhi's tone was extremely fierce. His clone shook its leaves and quickly shrank back. Just as it was about to wrap itself around Sui Cheng, Lu Zhi grabbed its tail. "How are you going to protect him?"
The vine felt wronged. Its energy had been drained by the Law, so it couldn't transform into human form and couldn't even speak anymore. Now it could only pretend to be dead.
Sui Cheng gently pulled the pitiful vine from his hand, pinched the leaves, and said with a pang of pity, "Don't talk about him anymore."
"You actually feel sorry for him!" Lu Zhi was furious. He felt wronged to death when he thought that Sui Cheng felt even more sorry for his clone.
"Naive!" Sui Cheng raised a finger and shoved him on the forehead, then looked at the ground overflowing with black mud and changed the subject: "What is this?"
"I don't know." Lu Zhi said coldly, telling them to hurry back to the ship and leave. He had a feeling that the island was about to disappear.
