Chapter 593: Zhao Qiang Takes Action
A walkie-talkie suddenly rang in a tightly wrapped crowd on the opposite side, and an intermittent voice came from inside anxiously, "...pay attention...to them...traitors...pay attention...squeak——"
Before anyone could figure out what was going on in the conversation, the intercom on the Yuebanwan side rang, and Xu Sa's brisk voice was clearly heard, "Everyone in Yuebanwan listen up, if anyone takes action they will be killed immediately, if no one takes action... set off immediately."
"Let's—go home!"
It was obvious from the excited voice that something had happened at their base. Then these accidents could only be caused by the other party. Those who had been quietly waiting for orders in the team immediately began to act according to their special abilities. Some were building roads, some were driving, and everyone had their own things to do in the chaos.
Instead, the group of people who came to attack became more and more embarrassed. The team leader kept contacting the command center, but didn't get any news. He wanted to take his brothers to delay time as planned, but he saw that the psychics in Yueban Bay each had a crystal core gun, with the muzzle of the gun pointing at them. There were also high-level psychics eyeing them covetously, and they looked so excited, like beasts waiting for their prey, just waiting for him to make a move.
In the middle of the team, Li Zhuang was sitting on the roof of an armored vehicle. Antonio had wrapped the entire armored vehicle with his metal-related abilities until there were no gaps at all. His legs and feet were also covered with a layer of metal, sticking to the roof of the vehicle. As long as the vehicle left, he would definitely follow.
On the other side, Gu Qingji was wrapped in a circle of green vines, and countless stems and leaves extended from his back, swaying like tentacles, looking weird and dangerous.
Standing opposite them was a man in black with a mask on his face. He was controlling the changes in the shape of the soil and trying to move the car to another place quickly, but every time he made a move, Li Zhuang was able to restrain him.
Like an adult facing an attack from a young child, Li Zhuang responded with ease, while Zhao Qiang was a little stretched.
It would be fine if they all died here, but if there were anyone left alive who knew that he was the one who did it, then when Yuebanwan recovered, he would be the one waiting for them to be punished.
Thinking of this, Zhao Qiang tightened the thing wrapped on his head, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed.
Following him were four combat-type psychics. According to the original plan, Zhao Qiang only needed to use his psychic powers to move the hostages' car away, and all they had to do was to entangle other psychics and buy time for the car to leave.
But at this time, Gu Qingji with a mutant plant and Antonio were enough to fight against the four of them. Li Zhuang stared at Zhao Qiang from beginning to end and didn't distract himself on others at all.
The land around the car was constantly softened by his supernatural power, dissolving into a black hole, which was then solidified with ease by Li Zhuang - he did not completely cover the hole, but only consumed a little of his supernatural power to solidify the hole to a degree that was just enough that the car could not enter.
The entire vehicle seemed to be stuck in mid-air, with a gap in the middle, giving people a feeling that the whole vehicle could be taken away by just a little bit, and they couldn't help but continue to add supernatural powers.
Seeing that Zhao Qiang was unable to succeed for the time being, the four psychics immediately adjusted their strategy. The two fire-type psychics began to focus on fighting Gu Qingji and the mutated plants on his body.
Plants cannot stand high temperatures, and even if they have a certain tolerance as their level increases, the temperature of high-level fire-type psychics will rise at any time.
Gu Qingji was stretched to the limit after resisting for a while, but fortunately Antonio on the other side was about to upgrade his superpowers, so it was not difficult for him to fight against two metal-type superpower users. He lent a hand to help him from time to time, and the confrontation between the two sides was not difficult.
Li Zhuang and his companions were only thinking about delaying time. Their goal was to return safely without wasting manpower. Although Zhao Qiang and his companions were not clear about the reason why the other party did not kill them, it did not affect their goal. The two sides kept targeting each other.
Just when no one was paying attention, Lu Xi's scream suddenly came from the car, "Be careful——"
Antonio's brows frowned, and countless flying knives around him flew in all directions. When they were controlled by two metal-type psychics, they condensed into a huge metal fist. As Antonio swung it in the air, the metal fist seemed to be controlled by an invisible force and smashed towards the two people.
The two metal-type psychics wanted to seize control, but their powers were not enough. Seeing the fists about to hit them, one of them kicked the other person next to him and shouted, "Go and help."
As soon as he finished speaking, he was smashed into the wall and lost his strength.
The man who was pushed out did not hesitate, and disappeared into the passage under the car in a flash.
Antonio was just about to use his superpowers to make a hole in the fully enclosed car to see what was inside, but he found that the metal car body that had been reinforced by his superpowers was now covered by another superpower.
Inside the car, Lu Xi's cursing voice could be heard intermittently. Antonio didn't know what was happening. He covered the car body with his hands and tried to force an exit. However, the opponent's ability was stronger than the two metal-type abilities shown just now, so he was unable to succeed for a while.
"Dean? Lu Xi?" Antonio shouted anxiously.
Gu Qingji didn't care about anything else. He controlled the mutated plants and resisted the two fire-type mutants, dragging them a little away from the car.
The plants were restricted by the fire, but the fire could not resist the soil. They were blocked on both sides by the collapsed soil layers, leaving only a passage in the middle.
Gu Qingji swung the mutant plants without any hesitation, and the plants hit the wall with crackling sounds. The soil fell down, in small pieces at first, and after the layers of reinforced soil were peeled off, large pieces began to fall down. He himself was protected by the mutant plants, and the countless stems were like countless tentacles, which protected him tightly, but the two fire-type mutants on the opposite side were in a miserable state.
Their special abilities could not control the soil, so they could only try to dodge it. If they couldn't dodge it, they would have to waste their special abilities to melt the soil. Even though their bodies as fire-type special abilities were not afraid of melted lava-like substances, when they hit them, it was like covering them with glue, which seriously slowed down their dodging speed and they began to run out of strength after a while.
On the other side, when Li Zhuang saw the metal-type mutant jumping into the black hole, he was about to use his supernatural powers to help find him, but he saw Zhao Qiang, who had been obsessed with the people in the vehicle, instantly turned his attention to him.
The two were originally at the same level. Even if Li Zhuang had upgraded earlier, it was only half a month earlier. There was not much difference in their abilities. The only difference was in quantity. But at this time, Zhao Qiang had already started to attack with all his might, even disregarding the fact that his identity was exposed. This gave Li Zhuang a bad feeling.
He couldn't get rid of the crazy Zhao Qiang, so he could only shout to Antonio, "Break through with force."
"Dean is inside." Dean's supernatural power is not enough to protect himself and cannot withstand the impact of huge energy. This is also the reason why Antonio is restrained and dare not force an entrance.
He smashed his fists into the car body, leaving only two deep holes on it. Then, they were quickly restored by the metal-type mutant who was hiding somewhere. He was so angry that he could only shout anxiously, "Dean? How are you?"
Li Zhuang was just about to tell him that Lu Xi was inside and would use his mental power to protect them, when he heard Dean's voice coming from their intercom, "David, they made a hole under the car, come and help."
In a small space, Dean's voice was clear and calm, with no sign of injury, which calmed Antonio down.
"Coming soon, baby, don't be afraid," Antonio jumped out of the car.
Zhao Qiang, who was entangled with Li Zhuang on the side, saw that there was no sign of leaving, so he knew that there might be other people with special abilities in the car who had withstood the sneak attack from the dark.
They knew that if Antonio went down to take action, they would have no chance of success at all.
Thinking that these two psychics were able to withstand the attacks of six combat psychics, the unwillingness in Zhao Qiang's eyes became more and more obvious - this was all the confidence accumulated by the crystal cores.
He didn't bother to hide his voice and shouted, "Kill them."
As he finished speaking, the shape of the entire car body changed, and it was visibly condensing into a metal ball. It was gradually shrinking with the help of supernatural powers. Fortunately, the original hole in the ground was shrunk even smaller by Li Zhuang, avoiding the possibility of falling in.
But if this continues, the three people hiding inside will be squeezed to death, not to mention that there is no air inside the completely closed room...
Antonio couldn't even think of the possibilities.
"You are looking for death--" He couldn't find the metal-type mutant in the dark, so he directly manipulated the metal he could control to condense into a hollow metal stick. The size of the stick was just the same as the entrance of the cave, and he stuffed the stick into the entrance and stirred it.
With a muffled groan, the car, which was still shrinking, paused for a moment, and then started to move again, but at a much slower speed.
"Dean? Dean?" Antonio called Dean over and over on the walkie-talkie.
However, the indiscriminate use of metal-related abilities may have destroyed the intercom, and only a rustling sound could be heard from it.
Antonio could no longer care about anything else and shouted, "Xu Sa, help—"
Before he finished speaking, there was a loud explosion above his head and then light came in from the sky. For a moment, everyone in the darkness below closed their eyes. They could only vaguely see a person wrapped in a fire dragon jumping down from above.
Immediately afterwards, something was thrown towards Zhao Qiang, followed by a loud explosion.
"Fuck, where the hell did this idiot come from..." Because they were too close to Zhao Qiang, the walls were shattered by the blast. Li Zhuang, who was closest to him, was also affected. He couldn't help but curse out loud for the first time without any image.
Ever since he awakened his earth-type ability, he had been experimenting with new uses based on Lu Weiyi's various weird ideas. This also allowed him to control the earth-type with unprecedented flexibility. This was the first time he had been so frustrated.
He wiped the dirt off his face, used his supernatural power to move the layer of dirt that buried his body, stood up, and looked at the person who suddenly appeared.
