Chapter 657: Killing
Guan Wei had a bad feeling in his heart, and saw Luo Qi glance at the woman in red beside him. The rustling trees in all directions seemed to come alive and slowly approached them.
"Everyone be careful." As soon as Guan Wei finished speaking, a scream was heard. A mutant standing on the edge had his legs tied up by a plant stem and was hung up.
"Old Meng——"
Someone shouted and came forward, and immediately flames shot out towards his face. If the people around him had not reacted in time and pulled him back, his face would have been burned.
In just a short while, Lao Meng was hung more than ten meters above the ground.
At this height, even if a person with special abilities cut off the stems and leaves that bound him, there was no way to ensure that he could land safely, so everyone was a little restrained for the moment.
"What do you want to do?" Guan Wei asked alertly.
Luo Qi stretched out his hand, and the person next to him immediately handed him a loudspeaker, "I believe your base commander should be nearby. In the next period of time, it will depend on whether he takes you seriously."
As he spoke, Luo Qi turned on the loudspeaker and called out "Hello" three times. Suddenly, his voice was heard all around. "Hello, commander of the Yuebanwan Base. I am Luo Qi from the Panshui Base. I am very interested in you, but I never had the chance to meet you."
"So, from now on, every fifteen minutes, a mutant will die until you show up."
Guan Wei clenched his fists unconsciously. He looked at the psychic who was tied up in mid-air and glanced at Zhao Gang beside him. The two of them exchanged glances and attacked almost at the same time.
An extremely thin ice needle suddenly flew towards the plant in the air. Guan Wei's supernatural power had also spread to the surrounding land. As soon as the person fell, he immediately used his supernatural power to catch the other person.
But the moment the ice needle was about to touch the other party, it turned into a drop of water, fell to the ground and disappeared.
Guan Wei didn't see what happened, but following Zhao Gang's gaze, he could see Wang Bing opposite him looking at him.
What is there to not understand? Zhao Gang and Wang Bing are both users of water-based abilities, so it would be easy for them to control each other's abilities.
I'm afraid I...
Guan Wei thought about it and turned his gaze to the other people. Sure enough, he saw a man looking at him with a smile on his face. He fiddled with his five fingers casually, and the soil in front of him formed a thin layer like a sand painting, which went up and down with his movements.
The other psychics looked relaxed and at ease, but they were also keeping an eye on the psychics on their side.
The difference in levels made Guan Wei realize that it would be extremely difficult for them to make a breakthrough in their superpowers. He tried to remain calm and said, "Our base commander is no longer around here. Even if you kill all of us, he won't be able to hear what you say."
"Really?" Luo Qi's voice was filled with confidence, "You don't really think I believe what you said about him being captured by a mutant snake?"
"What do you mean?" Guan Wei's face changed and he had a worse premonition.
"Don't you think the snake's arrival is too strange?" Luo Qi asked doubtfully. He successfully saw Guan Wei and his group's faces change. He slapped the armrests of his chairs and laughed, looking a bit crazy.
Guan Wei was already certain that the other party had done something, but he still wanted to know the whole story. He suppressed his emotions and retorted, "Absolutely impossible. Given the level of that snake, how could it be controlled by you? Aren't you afraid of hurting your waist if you brag about it?"
"Who said I controlled it?" Luo Qi shook his head as if he looked down on Guan Wei's stubbornness. "As long as we attract some high-level creatures along the way, isn't it normal for them to come here?"
"How can you have so many mutant animals?" Guan Wei said sarcastically. High-level mutant animals cannot be easily hunted by human power just because of their size. He didn't believe that Luo Qi would let a group of man-eating monsters at the Panshui base target the mutant animals.
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Qi smiled without saying anything, and his expression changed instantly.
There are few high-level mutant animals, but he has no shortage of high-level psychics.
"You use the psychic... to lure it over here..."
"Haha, aren't humans... also a kind of animal?" Luo Qi's chuckle was filled with a creepy chill.
From then on, Guan Wei knew that they were no match for this man. He looked at the group of wounded people around him, closed his eyes, and heard the death countdown in his ears. There were only six people on the opposite side, but they suppressed more than a hundred of them and they couldn't put up any resistance.
Guan Wei thought of Wu Yue's departure. He knew clearly that there might be a trap there, but he still went there alone and bravely. He was probably prepared to die.
What about changing yourself?
What can he do?
Guan Wei considered all the possibilities in his mind, but they were all rejected one by one. Time passed quietly in silence, and the countdown came to an end.
"It seems that your base commander doesn't care about your lives at all," Luo Qi said regretfully with his hands spread out, and snapped his fingers, and the people hanging in the air fell instantly.
"No--"
"don't want--"
After a few shouts were heard, the psychic immediately wanted to go to the rescue, but the moment the power was used, the power that was as familiar to him as breathing seemed to be forcibly taken away from him, and he could no longer control anything.
The feeling of powerlessness that ordinary people feel returns to them at this moment, as if the omnipotent superpowers they once had were just a dream.
The colorful bubble balls were bizarre and exploded with a bang, splashing a mixture of red and white all over people.
The surrounding clamor, shouting and angry roars were like an elongated painting, which finally stopped at the moment when everyone was forcibly escorted to their knees on the ground and any resistance was futile.
Guan Wei felt as if his ears were covered by something. Everything happening around him was separated by a layer of mist. He could not see or hear clearly, which slowed down his reactions by a few beats.
The horn blasted again and again, and Guan Wei felt as if his body was covered with something fishy and smelly, which made him disgusted, but he didn't even dare to brush it off.
"I'll go find him."
The four words seemed to come from his own mouth, and also seemed to come from the horizon. Guan Wei heard Luo Qi's chuckle like a death warrant.
"Okay, okay, I like people who know how to adapt to the times." Luo Qi clapped his hands and waved at Guan Wei as if teasing a puppy, "Go ahead, for half an hour, I won't touch them."
Guan Wei stood up, staggered two steps and fell to the ground, his entire face buried in a pool of blood. He struggled for a moment but had no strength to stand up.
He was still pulled up by the two people beside Luo Qi, who threw a stick in front of him as if rewarding him, and said, "Forget that you are a cripple. Take it carefully. If you can't get up, you will have to crawl to find someone."
Guan Wei didn't know how he walked out of that area. The cold wind from the mountains took away the blood from his breath and also woke up his thoughts.
Numbly following the information left by Zhuang Mingxu, he successfully found the hidden cave.
Entering through the cave entrance, there was a rope tied to a tree that led directly underground. When Guan Wei saw it, he knew he had found the right place.
The distance was not far, and he could still vaguely hear the sound of the horn surrounding him, but Zhuang Mingxu never appeared with Lu Weiyi.
Guan Wei couldn't help but wonder, did he really give up on them just to protect Lu Weiyi?
I can understand it rationally, but as the one who has been abandoned, I still cannot resonate emotionally.
Guan Wei suppressed all his emotions and cheered himself up, then slid down the rope ladder.
The underground cave was pitch black, and his supernatural power allowed him to vaguely see the shadows around him. There was no breathing in the silence, and he could not hear any sound from above.
This gave Guan Wei an idea in his mind - they just didn't hear what happened above, they didn't give up on them.
After feeling along the wall for a while, there was still no movement. Guan Wei couldn't help but called out softly, "Zhuang Mingxu~~~"
The echo reverberated in the empty cave, and no response was heard for a long time. Just when Guan Wei thought he must have gone in the wrong direction and was about to change sides, a gust of wind blew behind him, and he was thrown and pressed to the ground. Guan Wei used his supernatural powers reflexively, only to find that his supernatural powers had been restricted at some point and he could not use them at all.
"Who is it?" Zhuang Mingxu's voice was tense, and the strength in his hands did not loosen at all, as if he would kill the other party instantly if he was sure that the other party posed a threat.
"It's me, Guan Wei." Guan Wei gave up his resistance.
"Guan Wei?" Zhuang Mingxu only smelled the fishy smell mixed with blood on him. He turned on the light and took a look. The first thing that caught his eye was the red and white stuff all over his head and face.
His past experience immediately made him understand what this was. His expression changed immediately and he pulled the man up. "What's going on?"
Guan Wei knew that he had seen through it, and his eyes immediately turned red. He was like a helpless person who had found support, and he told her everything that happened afterwards.
"I think you are stupid," Zhuang Mingxu shouted angrily, then turned and ran into the cave. Guan Wei followed him closely without knowing why. Deep in the cave, he saw little Taotao looking vigilantly at a circle of moving plants in front of her, cursing in a baby voice and walking away.
"this……"
"They followed you." Zhuang Mingxu was so disappointed that he was about to step forward when he saw all the plants turning towards him. If the plants had eyes, they would definitely be staring at him.
Before he could react, countless plants attacked him in an instant. Guan Wei, whose super powers were suppressed, was unable to help at all. He didn't even have a weapon. He was used to relying on his super powers, so he couldn't think of what to do at this moment.
"You can't hide anymore?"
Zhuang Mingxu threw the dagger in his hand towards him, and while cursing him, the long knife in his hand slid, breaking through the plants in front of him, and did a somersault in the direction of Lu Weiyi.
Taotao called out "Dad" and commanded the branches to drag him, while also pulling Guan Wei, who had hidden in the corner, over.
"The base commander..." Guan Wei didn't feel the unique touch of mental power, and he was happy.
"He has a fever," said Zhuang Mingxu.
In fact, it's not just a fever now, it started early in the morning. Lu Weiyi's mental power had shown signs of confusion, giving Zhuang Mingxu a feeling that he was no longer under control.
This made his bad premonition stronger and stronger.
