Chapter 655: Heading to the Mountain God Base
"You must be safe before I die," Sun Cheng's voice was sonorous and powerful.
"I'll go with you."
The man who had been crying bitterly just now was the first to speak. His eyes washed by tears looked even clearer. He had personally experienced the separation of life and death, and he didn't want to experience it again.
"Add me one."
"I'll go too. Although my ability level is not high, I can guarantee there will be no problem taking care of the rear."
"I'll join in. We've all survived the whole winter. We won't all be defeated this time."
…
There were scattered responses, until finally almost everyone raised their hands.
Sun Cheng turned and looked at Wu Yue, "Captain Wu, let me go."
"No need." Wu Yue exhaled heavily and raised his hand to stop Sun Cheng from continuing. He said, "I will lead the team."
"If they really have bad intentions, my level of supernatural powers can give you a chance of survival."
Sun Cheng didn't say anything this time, but he still insisted that he could follow and lead the way, and Wu Yue didn't refuse this time.
He looked at the remaining people and said, "We can't go all of them. Let's take the seriously injured and those with special abilities who can clear the way for us. The rest of the lightly injured will stay here."
"Captain Wu, we can also help."
"I just saw a minor injury, my superpowers aren't affected at all."
Someone immediately wanted to fight for it, but Wu Yue raised his hand to suppress him, "You guys stay, maybe Zhou He will bring the team back later, and he can leave some rescue personnel for us then."
"Also, you stay and look for the base commander. His superpowers have reached their final stage and he may wake up at any time."
"As long as he wakes up, we will be absolutely safe."
Wu Yue did not forget to paint a final rosy picture for this group of wounded and disabled soldiers. Even though they were uncertain, many of them smiled when they heard the news.
Having decided to leave, Wu Yue did not hesitate at all and immediately asked Sun Cheng to count the number of people. The military doctor took half of them with him to ensure that more people would be alive along the way.
He took most of the earth-type users with high abilities, and left all the remaining lightly injured people behind. With this division, the originally small number of people became even smaller.
Looking at the less than two hundred psychics left, Wu Yue was unable to utter a word for a long time.
The two teams looked at each other in silence, unsure whether this separation would last forever. They forced a smile on their faces to try to lighten the atmosphere, but it made things even more unnatural.
"Okay, let's hurry up and leave." Wu Yue looked at the remaining people, and finally fixed his gaze on the two people with the highest level of superpowers.
"Guan Wei, please take care of the rest of the people." He looked at Zhao Gang again, "Thank you for your hard work."
The two nodded and watched as a passage appeared in front of Wu Yue. A huge group of people followed closely behind and disappeared from sight.
The originally crowded underground space suddenly became empty, and the people who were left behind did not speak for a long time.
It was as if we had lost our goal, and for a moment no one knew what to do.
Guan Wei saw that it was getting late, so he assigned people to cook and keep watch. "After dawn tomorrow, we will go find the base commander first. Captain Wu has lured the mutant snake away, but no one can be sure whether it will come back, so we have to be careful and report immediately if there is any situation."
Zhuang Mingxu, who was completely unaware of the situation, had already taken Lu Weiyi to hide deep in an underground cave. The fight between Wu Yue and the mutant snake was very close to them, which made him think that the mutant snake was chasing Lu Weiyi, so he immediately took Lu Weiyi and hid.
The shaking of the ground was too terrifying. Zhuang Mingxu leaned against the wall with only a small lamp in front of him. He could vaguely hear the sound of a giant snake hitting the ground.
Boom boom boom.
The rubble continued to fall, and Zhuang Mingxu was afraid that it would hit Lu Weiyi on the head, so he could only use his arms to block it for him as much as possible.
There was a child sleeping soundly in his arms, and the dangerous situation around him did not affect his sleep at all.
“I’m afraid all the embarrassing moments in your life were when you were following me,” Zhuang Mingxu chuckled and murmured.
Although he said that, he didn't feel bitter, he just felt a little sorry for the person in front of him.
"Wake up quickly, I don't have the ability to get you out."
Zhuang Mingxu touched Taotao's forehead and confirmed again that he was not sick, then he felt relieved.
The safest way now is to let him return to Lu Weiyi's space to rest. However, Zhuang Mingxu is worried that the mutant snake will really chase him. With Taotao around, he can take Lu Weiyi into the space together and at least save his life.
Of course, considering Taotao's current situation, that is the only solution they can use when they have no way out.
Zhuang Mingxu was thinking about all the possibilities in his mind. He didn't know how long it had passed before the sound above his head gradually became smaller and disappeared. He breathed a sigh of relief, but still didn't dare to take Lu Weiyi away.
After enduring the whole night, early the next morning, Zhuang Mingxu hid Lu Weiyi and went to the ground alone.
The ground in front of him looked extremely damaged, with broken branches, scattered dead grass, deep sliding marks on the ground, and a small hill that was cut in half, all of which showed that a fierce battle had taken place here.
Zhuang Mingxu walked around for a while and picked up a piece of cloth that was torn by tree branches in a hidden corner. It was the uniform of their base army.
Among the remaining people in the base army, Wu Yue is the only one with the highest ability. If it is really possible to fight with the mutant snake here, it can only be Wu Yue.
Thinking of his level, Zhuang Mingxu's heart tightened. He looked around and found at a glance the food residue of unidentifiable species. The scales were still stained with digestive fluid from the snake's stomach, killing all the insects that came here following the smell.
After looking at the sticky mud next to him, Zhuang Mingxu reconstructed the general situation in his mind. He looked around in the direction of the jungle and found the traces left by them when they left.
I wonder what the rest of the team members are doing?
Just as Zhuang Mingxu was thinking about taking Lu Weiyi back, he heard Taotao's anxious voice coming from the intercom, "Dad, Dad, come quickly——"
As the child's body shrank, his intelligence declined and he couldn't explain what was happening. He could only call for help anxiously.
Zhuang Mingxu didn't care about anything else and hurried back.
As soon as she landed, Taotao was seen patting Lu Weiyi's cheeks with her two little hands and calling "Dad" continuously.
"Taotao, what's wrong?" Zhuang Mingxu stepped forward and pulled the child away, not noticing any danger around.
"Father Shao Shao" Taotao pointed to her forehead.
Zhuang Mingxu reached out to touch it, and the temperature was so hot that it seemed to burn his skin. He broke out in a cold sweat, not knowing what was going on.
Forcing himself to calm down, Zhuang Mingxu felt around and found that only Lu Weiyi's forehead was hot. To be exact, only the area between his eyebrows was hot.
This is exactly where the crystal core is located, which is obviously not a good sign.
Thinking of this, Zhuang Mingxu suddenly remembered that he had been hiding with Lu Weiyi on his back all the way. At first, he remembered to wear a mental shielding helmet, but he had forgotten about it in a hurry. He was not affected by the other party's mental power.
With a jolt in his heart, Zhuang Mingxu immediately took out the testing equipment and found that his mental power was so weak that it could only cover himself.
The crystal core was placed next to him, and there was no sign of autonomous absorption.
Whether the future will be good or bad depends on this. After months of panic about the outcome, he is not so nervous anymore.
Skillfully directing Taotao to fetch water from the space to help him cool down, Zhuang Mingxu prepared for the worst.
I just don’t know what Taotao will do in the future?

As daybreak approached, Guan Wei divided the remaining people into groups, divided the area around the temporary base, and asked them to go out and look for the traces of Zhuang Mingxu and the other man.
"No need to go too far. He is an ordinary person with limited physical strength and combat power. He will not go too far. He can only be hiding nearby." Guan Wei distributed the remaining energy detectors to several people.
"If it cannot be detected on the ground, it may be hidden underground. There are many underground caves nearby. I will check the surroundings. You guys with earth-type abilities should pay attention to the places a little further away."
"clear".
The group responded and quickly left quietly towards their assigned areas according to their groups.
"I'll go take a look around here," Guan Wei said, using a stick as a crutch to support himself and getting up.
He was stopped by the person standing next to him and said, "Let me carry you. You just had surgery on your leg not long ago, and the bone will easily become crooked when you move now."
"It's okay, I started walking yesterday." Guan Wei refused and walked with the crutches. Seeing that people around him were looking at him worriedly, he smiled and said, "It's okay, it's almost grown back."
"Now is a critical moment. After we get through this and return to the base, I will apply for two healing departments to provide me with daily care," Guan Wei said jokingly to encourage everyone.
"Wow, you are so bold to have two healing departments revolving around you."
"Why do I feel like it's getting dark? Did you blow the cow up?"
"Oh my god, it covers the sky and the sun, how big must this cow be?"
"Get lost, haha..."
Amidst the laughter, Guan Wei seemed not to feel the pain in his legs. He actually supported his body with the help of a stick and walked without any sign of difficulty.
"We will be responsible for the surrounding area of about one thousand meters. I will use my supernatural power to explore the underground, and you will be responsible for the ground." Guan Wei looked at the people following him and stretched out his hand, "Come on!"
"come on!"
"come on!"
"Thank you for your hard work here," Guan Wei said to Zhao Gang, then left with the team.
Before long, only Zhao Gang, three military doctors, and a dozen psychics who were weakened by excessive blood loss were left in the cave.
In a spacious place, several military doctors were boiling medicine. After a night of ventilation, the bloody smell in the air had been replaced by a strong smell of Chinese medicine.
Zhao Gang didn't dare to continue wasting his supernatural powers, and originally asked a wood-type supernatural user to help him make two crutches. However, he had lost both legs and had no support. He fell down after trying several times, and finally relied on his hands to support his body to move.
Seeing that he was moving with difficulty but still patiently checking the situation everywhere to ensure his safety, the clear line that was originally drawn between him and me gradually showed a tendency to merge.
After all, Zhuang Mingxu is a professional trained by the country. He hides himself perfectly, and it is easy for him to deal with the search of these half-baked soldiers.
In addition, as Lu Weiyi's situation was unclear, he became more cautious. After several days, he couldn't find any trace of him. Finally, Guan Wei found the information he left behind and locked down his location.
