Chapter 577: An An Attack
The moment they separated from the main force, Xing Zhou and Gu Sheng's mental powers had already spread out in all directions, and they noticed the small tail chasing them the moment they were caught up.
"How many people?" Xu Sa looked back with a telescope. The dense forest blocked his view. He could only see towering vegetation, withered weeds, and mutant animals that jumped up from time to time.
"Ten cars, they..." Xing Zhou raised his eyebrows, "The leading one is Zheng's army's car."
"The Zheng family is not trying to hide it anymore?" Gu Sheng left a trace of mental energy to take a look and continued to explore in the direction he was responsible for.
"The Zheng family...hehe..." Xu Sa grinned wickedly, "Should we try to trick the Zheng family again?"
"Okay," Gu Sheng immediately agreed.
Xing Zhou hesitated, "Or... let's just forget it." They were already enough to make other teams jealous, so there was no need to take the initiative to set traps and provoke them at this time.
"Let's find someone first. We don't know what the situation is over there."
Anyone who can see through Xu Sa's intentions will definitely kill He Song and the other man.
"That's fine," Xu Sa said with regret, "Zheng Yi got it badly."
Gu Sheng burst into laughter when he heard this, while Xing Zhou looked upset.
"Stuttering, stop the car."
The car stopped steadily. Xu Sa got out and put his hand on the thick layers of snow on the ground. Tiny electric currents flashed and passed away into the distance.
After a while, the pursuing vehicles appeared in the field of vision. As the cars got closer, Xu Sa could clearly see the faces of the people in the cars. He gave them a bright smile. His black hair and eyes were particularly beautiful against the white snow.
"Is he trying to seduce us?" The leading car was indeed the Zheng family's team. A fat man who rolled away in the driver's seat laughed.
"There aren't enough for so many of us."
"Aren't there three more beside them?"
"The one in the posture position is okay, and can be considered good-looking, but the other two are okay."
"What? We are all men, who would complain about who?"
"If you are tall and strong, you can go ahead if you don't mind."
Everyone was talking at once on the intercom, making dirty jokes, which made everyone laugh.
"Don't mess around, our goal is to catch them and get the sheep back." A man sitting upright in the co-pilot seat of the leading car frowned, and his young face looked a little older because of the wrinkles that appeared early on. He stared at the four people in front of him and said in a deep voice.
"Captain Han, don't be so nervous. It's not like we didn't see their strength just now. It's not that exaggerated." A laughing voice came from the intercom.
In the car at the back, a chubby figure was fiddling with a string of beads, smiling so hard that his teeth were showing. It was none other than Sun Laiqian, the captain of the Madman Team who had appeared in Zhao Qiang's office a few days ago.
"There are only four of them. We are all over 40 years old. We can definitely catch them," Sun Laiqian said casually.
"They have an SS-level mutant." Han Chengming's frown deepened.
"It's not as powerful as the rumors say. We've tested it before, and a group of mutant sheep chased them into a state of panic. You also saw the fire element's attack, it wasn't that powerful. Besides, you are an S-level psychic, and the rest of us are all A+ level."
Sun Laiqian didn't hear Han Chengming's voice and continued to tempt him, "Maybe they still have crystal cores on them, S-level crystal cores, which are the things that many psychics dream of. If we can get one or two, it will be enough to upgrade our psychics to a higher level."
"If you have three or four of them, Captain Han, you can be upgraded to SS level in just one sentence. If you have an SS-level psychic in the base, girls will all admire the strong. If you go to see Miss Zheng with such a title..."
Sun Laiqian laughed and didn't say anything else.
Han Chengming was silent for a long time, and then the intercom came with his orders to blockade each vehicle.
Sun Laiqian glanced out the window with satisfaction, and then heard the person in the co-pilot seat ask, "Captain, is it okay for us to instigate others like this? If Major General Zheng knew that it was us who instigated Han Chengming to lose the flock..."
"What are you talking about? I didn't do anything. I just inspired a young man to fight for his love." Sun Laiqian was still smiling. The wrinkles on his face seemed to be fixed. He looked like an easy-going Maitreya Buddha at all times.
He listened to the calls coming in and out of the intercom and murmured, "So, what people lack most is self-knowledge. You're a bodyguard, why are you thinking about the young lady? Yeah yeah yeah..."
The last words of his were accompanied by a series of tremors, and then the car began to twist and turn and rush around until it suddenly hit the vehicle next to it and finally stopped.
At this time, other vehicles had already collided with each other. Some of them were driving too fast and even overturned after the collision. The people in the cars were shaking like they were having an epileptic seizure.
There was a burst of laughter coming from the front, and a clear male voice shouted to them from afar, "For the sake of your Major General Zheng, I'll give you some leeway. If you dare to follow us again, I'll take your lives next time."
The car roared away. It took a while for the people in the car to regain their mobility. Sun Laiqian was helped out of the car by his men and saw Han Chengming being carried out of the wrecked car. He had already fainted.
Even more unfortunate was that all the vehicles malfunctioned due to the severe electric current shock.
They can't go back.
**
Xu Sa and his three companions walked towards Yueban Bay for a long time, and finally heard the sound of artillery fire in the southeast direction.
At that time, both of them were seriously injured.
He Song was holding a rocket launcher in both hands and carrying an unconscious person on his back. Yue Qiwen, who always looked like an elite, now had his head hanging down and his life or death was unknown.
In the distance, three men were walking towards them slowly. The one in front was holding a spear made of fire in his hand. His red hair was particularly conspicuous, just like his supernatural powers. He threw the flaming spear in his hand towards the two of them with force. The spear passed through the air, leaving a long string of fireworks, with an unstoppable momentum.
He Song is an earth-type mutant with one of the strongest defensive abilities. At this time, he did not use his abilities at all and directly fired another cannonball at the opponent.
The shell knocked down the flaming spear and attacked the three people again.
A man wrapped in black, as if he was going to a funeral at any time, stretched out his hand towards them. The ground suddenly rolled up and down, as if the earth's crust had changed. In the middle of the two teams, a wall more than ten meters high suddenly appeared, just blocking the place where the shells were coming from.
The artillery fire hit the earth wall, splashing countless bricks and stones, many of which fell on He Song and Yue Qiwen, making them look even more embarrassed.
The residual force of the shells fell, and the earth wall suddenly returned to the ground. Except for the slight displacement of weeds and trees, there was no trace of it. However, He Song was rebounded by the impact force generated by the shooting, and his whole body was pushed in the opposite direction and sat on the ground.
The weight of an adult man pressed down on Yue Qiwen, forcing him to struggle for a long time and unable to stand up.
"Captain He, why bother? The crystal core belongs to the base, not your own. Is it worth leaving your life here?" Among the three people who followed, the one who had not taken any action slowly approached and looked down at him.
"I've already said that the crystal core is not with us. Instead of wasting time, you might as well go back and find an SS-level psychic." He Song's voice was hoarse. He supported himself on the ground with one hand and tried to stand up, while with the other hand he aimed the cannon in his arms at the approaching person.
"Brother, why waste time talking to him? What can't you gain by just killing him?" The red-haired man shouted angrily, "The third, fifth and sixth brothers were all killed by them. Today I must kill them and bury them with them."
As the man spoke, a flaming spear condensed in his hand again, and he raised his hand and was about to throw it towards He Song again.
"Wait, I know where the crystal core is," He Song said quickly.
The camouflaged man grabbed the red-haired man's raised hand and laughed, "Why didn't you say it earlier? There wouldn't be such a thing."
"The crystal core is really not with us. Even if we kill you, we can't get it, and the people of Yueban Bay will chase us. Several teams at Changhong Base are dead because they provoked internal strife in Yueban Bay. You don't want to be on the run for many years to come, do you?"
"Hehe, as long as we get the crystal core, do you think we will still be afraid of the people from Yueban Bay?" The red-haired man sneered, "You are just relying on the fact that there are many high-level psychics in the base."
He Song ignored him and looked at the camouflage man. "Since the end of the world, no psychic has died in Yueban Bay due to upgrading. They proposed the purification of crystal cores, and they developed crystal core weapons. They even started to explore a series of things that other bases have never thought of, and they have achieved quite a lot. Do you think they rely on a few high-level psychics to gain a foothold?"
The camouflage man didn't say anything. Instead, the mourner who had been silent all this time suddenly asked, "Is your base commander really upgrading?"
"Yes," He Song replied, "I was there."
"The number of crystal cores required to upgrade to SSS level is enormous. All the high-level crystal cores stored in our base have been sent over. This batch of crystal cores is also to enable him to succeed faster."
The man in black obviously hesitated, but when he saw the red-haired man's excitement, he finally looked at the man in camouflage, waiting for him to make a decision.
The camouflage man didn't follow his train of thought and gestured for him to continue, but his approaching steps did not pause at all.
He Song wanted to stand up and put some distance between the two groups. He glanced at the time casually, estimating that rescue might be coming soon, and delayed as much as possible, saying, "I know the person who actually holds the crystal core, and I also know his return route."
"Who is it?" asked Red Hair.
"Xu Sa" noticed that the other party's face turned unfriendly, so he quickly added, "Liu Rui is not on the same side as him, and he is also a pawn for him to divert others."
"Go on," said the camouflaged man, and he took a few quick steps closer, closing the distance. He Song felt something was wrong, and then he realized that the rocket launcher in his hand was gradually beginning to bend and deform.
This is the camouflage man's special ability, the metal element. He can change the shape of any metal within the range of his special ability. This ability forces the crystal core weapons he and Yue Qiwen carry to be useless.
