Chapter 31 Golden Eagle
"Captain, we've scouted them out. There are 127 ability users over there, most of whom we've seen before. Inside the air-raid shelter, there are 3 high-level beings, 15 beings with strength close to high-level beings, and 78 ordinary beings." Xiaolin quickly returned with the results.
Lin Zhi was somewhat surprised that she could detect it so accurately.
Xiaolin pushed up her black-rimmed glasses. Her skill was enhancement, which could enhance the five senses. After enhancing her vision and hearing, her detection ability would be extremely accurate.
After finishing her business, she glanced at Lu Zhi again and found him looking at Sui Cheng, speaking to him with his head down, his gaze tender as if he were looking at his beloved, filled with love that no one could ignore.
She was heartbroken; she had finally met a handsome guy, only to find out he was already taken.
Xiaolin's teammates, fearing she might do something foolish, immediately pulled her back.
"Nearly a hundred mutants, 127 ability users, and the captain. Do you think the ability users can win this time?" Shan Qiu asked meaningfully.
Sui Cheng's gaze was deep, and he already had a plan in mind. He asked Xiao Lin, "Where are those three high-level species located?"
Xiaolin glanced at her captain, and after she nodded, she pointed to the mountain above the air-raid shelter and said, "There's one up there, and another one inside the air-raid shelter. The one furthest inside, probably near the exit on the other side of the mountain, is the strongest of the three."
Thank you.
"Is Captain Sui planning to go directly to deal with the advanced species? Do you also want the crystal core?" Shan Qiu asked.
Sui Cheng said, "Who wouldn't want a crystal core? Captain Shan, look, we can't travel together anymore."
"Alright, be careful with the captain." Shan Qiu waved to them nonchalantly, watching them walk up the mountain before turning his gaze away.
She stroked her chin and muttered to herself, "Everyone says that Sui Cheng is amazing, but it seems that he just has strong superpowers."
"Captain?" Xiaolin heard her speak, but didn't quite catch what she said. She asked, puzzled, "What should we do now?"
Dan Qiu narrowed his eyes slightly, the smile on his face vanished instantly, replaced by a sharp edge. "Proceed according to plan, capture them alive."
"OK."
...
"That Captain Shan is no ordinary person."
We rode with them up the mountain road and soon reached the halfway point.
A vine suddenly wrapped around his wrist, and he heard Shan Qiu's words after they left through the vine.
After relaying this to his attendant, seeing him deep in thought, Lu Zhi added, "They didn't come for the crystal cores, but also to capture live alien species. It seems they also suspect the origins of these alien species."
Sui Cheng said in a low voice, "Shan Qiu is one of Bai Su's people. Since they are all investigating this matter, it should have nothing to do with Bai Xuefeng. There is a powerful psychic ability user hiding behind that organization."
Lu Zhi nodded, and as he stepped over the obstacle in front of him, he took the arm of his attendant and said indifferently, "I never doubted him either."
If this matter had nothing to do with him, the lawyer wouldn't care who the mastermind was, but...
He narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of coldness creeping into them. If those people found him, his entourage would surely be implicated. Before that happened, he needed to find those people and eliminate them as soon as possible.
"Ahem." Lu Zhi coughed lightly and glanced at him casually.
Lu Zhi took his hand and, before Sui Cheng could shake it off, immediately said, "I'm a little tired. Could you please lend me some strength, Captain?"
The passenger glanced at his face and noticed that it was indeed rather pale.
The injuries inside the body had indeed not healed yet. He tightened his grip slightly, holding Lu Zhi's hand tightly in return.
Lu Zhi smiled triumphantly and raised an eyebrow at Chang Zijin, who was riding on the other side of the carriage, in a very arrogant and provocative manner.
Chang Zijin's face turned pale.
"Captain, there's the aura of an alien species ahead." Tan Qingjia used his mental power to detect the aura ahead.
Sui Cheng released Lu Zhi's hand, letting him stay with Chang Zijin. Everyone else, except Lin Zhi, went with him.
Lu Zhi nudged his wrist and whispered, "Be careful."
Just as he was about to leave, he remembered something and left with the words, "You too."
Lu Zhi smiled gently at him.
After he left, the smile on her face vanished instantly, replaced by a coldness.
Chang Zijin happened to catch his emotional change and felt that Lu Zhi was even more unfathomable. He didn't seem like a good person at all. He really didn't know what Sui Cheng saw in him.
...
They had already reached the mountaintop and saw the golden eagle with outstretched wings. Its pale yellow eagle eyes were fixed on them, as if it had known they had returned all along.
"This advanced breed seems different from the others," Chen Jiang muttered to himself.
Just then, the golden eagle flapped its wings, and a strong and fierce wind swept towards them, forming one golden blade after another in the air.
Sui Cheng hurriedly used his lightning net to block the golden blades, but the attack was stronger than he had imagined. The lightning net was torn apart, and although Sui Cheng used an ice wall to block it, it only held out for a short while.
The ice shattered, and Sui Cheng avoided the direction of the golden blade's attack, but unexpectedly, the golden blade made a turn in mid-air.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Tan Qingjia immediately used his mental power to control the trajectory of the golden blade. Strangely, such a powerful attack instantly disintegrated after being touched by mental power.
"Captain, let me handle this. Its weakness is its mental strength." Tan Qingjia stepped forward, his mental strength condensing into fine needles, which he aimed directly at the golden eagle.
The golden eagle was also on guard, flapping its wings powerfully and moving nimbly. Feathers fell from its wings and turned into sharp weapons, which shone with a light golden light as they flew towards Tan Qingjia.
"Water Wall!" Chen Jiang immediately stopped the feathers. He stirred them with water, rendering them unable to attack. After he stopped controlling them, they all fell to the ground.
The golden eagle let out a very faint, low cry, glaring at them.
As he clenched his fist, several fist-sized lightning balls appeared in the air.
"Qingjia, use your mental power to control these lightning orbs and attack it."
"Okay." Tan Qingjia immediately did as instructed, and with the support of his mental energy, the lightning balls were continuously fired at the golden eagle.
The power of thunder was unstoppable. Even though the golden eagle kept dodging, it was hit several times, especially its wings, which were numb from the electric shock and could no longer fly steadily.
"continue."
The golden eagle was enraged, and more golden light poured down like a torrential rain, leaving its riders with no way to stop it, and injuries slowly began to appear on their bodies.
"Continue, Chen Jiang, launch a fierce attack and take it down. Zhang Meng, get ready."
This minor injury is insignificant to them.
As Sui Cheng raised his hand, lightning flashed in the sky, as if thunder was rolling down from the heavens.
"Chen Jiang!" he shouted, and Chen Jiang immediately threw a huge water ball at the golden eagle, as if to drown it.
"Boom." Large swaths of lightning fell, but because the golden eagle was wet, they were all drawn onto it.
The golden eagle cried out in pain, its wings losing many feathers and blood splattering everywhere.
As it plummeted, Sui Cheng moved like lightning, appearing directly above the golden eagle and slamming his lightning-filled fist into its back.
"Waaah!"
The golden eagle swooped down toward Zhang Meng, who was already prepared. He grabbed the eagle's wing and slammed it to the ground with a thud. Fearing the eagle would attack again, he swung it around several times.
"Bang."
"Smack!"
With repeated loud crashes, the golden eagle gradually lost its ability to resist.
"Stop playing around, we need it alive," Chen Jiang couldn't help but remind him.
