Chapter 186 Does it matter?
They went in the opposite direction from Lu Zhi. The group that took Zhong Ling and her brother didn't head towards the coast; it seemed they were going to rendezvous.
They were on their way to Da Nang, where the warship was docked.
Before setting off, I casually asked about the location of Lu Zhiyu Shuang, which is over in Da Nang.
If Yu Shuang is going to rejoin the main force, that place will definitely be where the Federation base lands.
Because he was in a hurry, Lu Zhi didn't pay attention to his companion. When he stopped, he realized that the connection he felt through the vines was no longer with him at the base.
He instantly understood the situation, licked his back teeth with a cold smile, and silently made a mental note of it.
"Sui, what's wrong?" The person next to Sui noticed that something was wrong with Sui; his complexion seemed to have worsened considerably.
"It's nothing." Sui Cheng coughed lightly, concealing his unusual behavior.
The vines on his wrist were climbing up his arm, indicating that Lu Zhi already knew that he was acting with Dang Hongyuan and the others.
"We've been traveling for several days straight, let's take a break," came Dang Hongyuan's voice from the walkie-talkie.
"Received!" the driver replied immediately.
Those traveling in the same car were all members of the Procuratorate. Chen Jiang and his team also came on this mission, one small team in one car, following behind.
They hadn't been on a mission with their chaperone in a long time, so they were especially excited. When they saw that their chaperone was alone, they were all stunned.
Lin Zhi asked curiously, "He's with the team, where's Brother Lv?"
They're usually inseparable, so seeing only one of them in the carriage now feels a bit strange.
The passenger said, "He has other tasks."
Linzhi: "Oh, oh."
After saying this, Lin Zhi noticed that the rider's body trembled slightly. Thinking something was wrong, she quickly asked, "Squad Leader, what's wrong?"
Sui Cheng calmly shook his head, but his voice sounded somewhat unnatural as he said, "It's nothing, I'll go patrol the area."
"Let me go with you!" Zhang Meng wanted to go with him, but was interrupted by the attendant raising his hand.
"No need." This made the change in the passenger's voice quite noticeable, as if he was suppressing something.
The passenger was thankful that he was wearing a long coat today, which could cover him up; otherwise, people would definitely have noticed something was wrong.
“Law Enforcement.” He leaned against the tree, grabbing the vines around his chest, but the more he pulled, the tighter they became.
"It hurts, don't move..." Sui Cheng's breathing became a little uneven.
He knew that the lawyer was just throwing a tantrum, but this couldn't go on.
“I didn’t intentionally hide it from you. The plan was only finalized after you left. Calm down.” Sui Cheng bowed slightly to make him look less suspicious.
The vines climbed up his neck, and the branches touched his ears as if kissing him.
Sui Cheng frowned slightly and immediately changed the subject, asking, "Have you found them?"
While he was speaking, the vines crawled into his mouth and wrapped around his tongue.
This is insane!
Lawyer is indeed quite angry, but he's not entirely irrational.
He crouched on the cliff, watching the camp below while controlling his clone thousands of miles away.
He heard what the passenger said, but they were too far apart for him to transmit his voice.
Sui Cheng was unaware of this misunderstanding, and only breathed a slight sigh of relief when he saw Teng Man calm down.
...
Where do we go next?
The people below the cliff had just loaded Zhong Ling and Zhong Qi onto the refrigerated truck. The others, armed, watched their surroundings warily.
"No one followed, right?"
"If we delay any longer, they will catch up. We will retreat according to plan. Hanton, you stay behind to clean up the mess."
"Okay." The burly man with a thick beard carried a rocket launcher on his shoulder.
Seeing that they were about to run away, Lu Zhi's lips curled into a smile, his eyes turning cold.
Beneath his feet, vines penetrated the soil and soon covered the surrounding cliffs.
"boom!"
The ground was shaking.
"What's going on? Get on alert!"
The group stopped, only to find that the two only exits were completely blocked by vines that had appeared out of nowhere.
Not only the road in front, but even the mountain walls on both sides are covered with wriggling vines.
"Is it a different species?"
"Impossible! We dealt with all the alien species here before we came. There's no way we wouldn't have detected such a powerful alien species!"
"Could it be that people from the China base have caught up with us?"
The vines did not immediately attack them, but they carried an overwhelming and oppressive aura.
One of the vines intertwined and formed a ball. A figure fell from above and landed on the vine.
The man wore a dark green trench coat, one leg bent and the other casually draped over the outside, the vines swaying behind him indicating his status.
"I say, you might as well kill yourselves." A flippant voice, laced with a cold laugh, came from above.
"Who goes there?" The people below quickly looked up and, upon seeing the man on the vines, immediately opened fire on him.
The bullets all froze in mid-air, as if blocked by an invisible wall of air.
Lu Zhi raised his hand, flicked his finger, and all the bullets changed direction, flying back at them.
"Get out of the way!"
When the group of people hid, they looked up at the vines again, but the man was gone.
"Bang!" A loud noise came from the roof of the car.
Lu Zhi stood on it, the vines wrapping around the entire car and tightening them.
"Attack now!" They charged directly at Lu Zhi, unleashing all sorts of superpowers.
"Tsk." Lü Zhi remained unmoved and even made a sound of disdain.
"You're really wasting my time." The vines darted around rapidly, scattering their skills. The powerful energy spread out instantly, creating a huge crater in the ground.
"ah!"
Screams erupted as the corpses pierced by the vines were thrown into the deep pit.
"Bang." Someone seized the opportunity and threw an energy bomb directly at Lu Zhi. Sparks flew everywhere, and the refrigerated truck was blown to pieces.
The back door opened, and Zhong Ling and Zhong Qi rolled out.
"Hmm?" Lu Zhi noticed something and looked down at the ground.
Zhong Qi's body moved on its own.
After being in a vegetative state for several years, his body miraculously came back to life and even released a powerful energy aura.
But this aura is not human; it belongs to a different species.
"interesting."
Lu Zhi jumped down from above, his trench coat billowing, his hair slightly disheveled from the recent explosion.
He raised his hand to brush his hair back, looked at the "person" slowly rising not far away, and sneered: "You are the alien species inside Zhong Qi?"
“You are very powerful.” Zhong Qi did not open his mouth; the voice came from his abdomen.
“I know, you don’t need to tell me.” Lu Zhi has always been confident and arrogant, and his strength gives him the confidence to look down on everyone, including aliens.
"You are also a different species, so why would you help humans?" The voice rang out again, and a pair of huge bat wings spread out from Zhong Qi's back, creating a strong wind.
"This is so annoying," Lu Zhi said coldly. "Why does everyone have to ask this? What's it to you?"
