Chapter 685 Thoughts
"You mean he's a zombie?" asked Fang Tang.
Tan Yun did not confirm, but just said, "I did see it."
But this zombie was somewhat different from the zombies she had seen before. It had no intention of attacking humans at will, and even seemed to be controlled by Qi Le.
"Could you have seen it wrong?" After all, it was pitch black all around, and it was easy to make mistakes with just a few torches in hand.
"That's a dead man," said Mo Tiantian, who looked confused. Since she saw Qi Le turned hostile and vomited on the ground, she hasn't said a word and looked frightened.
"Tiantian, you..." Tan Yun looked at her worriedly.
Compared to other awakened psychics, Mo Tiantian is the first child chosen in the base, and she is also a highly respected healer. This means that the treatment she has always received is incomparable to that of others, and her usual mentality seems childish.
But after the initial panic, she seemed to be the first person to calm down. She patted Tan Yun's hand, indicating that she was fine and said, "I've met Uncle Ming. He used to tease me all the time."
Among the six people who were chosen at the beginning, she was the only child. In addition, it was inevitable that her enlightened supernatural powers would be needed by anyone. Mo Tiantian was the person they were least guarded against and had a good relationship with several people.
It is impossible for her not to recognize someone that Tan Yun could recognize.
"I greeted him quietly, but he ignored me." Mo Tiantian knew from the look on Tan Yun's face that she had mistaken Li Ming for someone else, but she did not try to recognize him, nor did she dare to show up. Instead, she sneaked up on him and greeted him.
"He ignored me, so I secretly went to pull his hand, and found... found..." Mo Tiantian's voice was choked with sobs, "He had no signs of human life."
Healing psychics deal with humans all day long and are most sensitive to the physical characteristics of living people, especially low-level healing psychics like Mo Tiantian. She even has difficulty repairing delicate nerves, and the best she has mastered is limited to saving people. She also has a clearer perception of the status of living people.
"So... he can control the dead!" The more abilities Qi Le had not demonstrated, the more worried Fang Tang became, "and they are dead people with special powers."
Speaking of this, Fang Tang remembered the ability the other party had just displayed. The girl was not in the same team as Fang Tang, but her ability was also at the S level. The other party walked up to her and crushed her head so easily. This was definitely not an ability that an A-level psychic should display.
"Are all the superpowers you were enlightened to in the first place A-level?" Fang Tang asked.
"Yes, each group of players will form a team, and the levels will not differ too much," Tan Yun affirmed, "The ability shown by Li Ming at that time was not as good as that of an ordinary A-level water-based mutant."
Therefore, his current level is somewhat suspicious, and no one knows whether he upgraded while he was alive or after his death.
However, no matter which one it is, it seems a bit scary to them.
There are hundreds of mutants missing in the base, and no one can be sure whether every one of them is with Qi Le.
"Where are we going?" Seeing that no one was talking for a long time, Li Jing took the initiative to ask.
The room of Sha Peng's house has completely collapsed into ruins. After staying in this environment for a long time, they have become accustomed to the stench in the air. The people who had originally gathered in the yard have hurried off to carry out the tasks assigned to them, leaving only Fang Tang's team and the two gods' messengers Tan Yun with nothing to do.
In the middle of the empty yard, there were two corpses with plants growing on them. Qi Le seemed to have forgotten about them, but also seemed to have left them there on purpose to remind all those who disobeyed the rules of the consequences.
"Wrap them with plant roots and consider them... graves." Fang Tang did not dare to show too much sympathy for them at this time.
Pang Qin had just been forced by Qi Le to use her supernatural powers, and she hadn't recovered yet. When she heard that she was going to use her supernatural powers again, she trembled all over and didn't even dare to look. She hugged her small body and trembled, "Captain..."
She kept shaking her head and said, "I dare not."
She was just young, not without a sense of right and wrong. She could attack the enemy without hesitation, but she tortured the members of the base to death...
This may become her shadow. Every time she uses her superpowers, she can remember what she has done with this ability.
Their super powers came suddenly, and one day they would leave without any control. Fang Tang knew that this might become a source of worry for her, but he really couldn't spare the energy to comfort her at this moment.
"Let me do it." Tan Yun stepped forward and took over. In a moment, a small sapling growing against the wind appeared in the sight of several people. It had a huge root system, which was entangled into two human figures, completely different from its fragile trunk that would break at the touch.
Looking at the two people who were still alive a few minutes ago, but now have completely become nutrients for the saplings, everyone was silent.
It was Fang Tang who spoke first, "Aunt Tan, what do you think?"
"Think?" Tan Yun had taken in too many things in a short period of time, and her brain was a little frozen at this moment. She looked blankly at the clusters of flames in the distance moving in different directions - that was the direction they were heading, and it also indicated that the base that had been built with great difficulty was heading towards the beginning of another unknown future.
Since the end of the world, they have experienced countless times of despair, but none of them can compare to the impact of the collapse of faith at this moment. She had been so close to a stable life, but now the tilt of the building and its shattering into pieces is irreparable.
It seemed as if all the energy and spirit in Tan Yun's body had been drained away, and her body became a little hunched. She said, "I'm going back. My family is still waiting for me. If there is anything... please call me again."
She accepted her fate with her actions.
Fang Tang watched her walk slowly out of the yard. When she reached the door, she whispered, "Tiantian, you are the only one in the base with healing abilities. There will always be a place for you."
Mo Tiantian nodded slowly, watching her without even a torch, blending into the night, as if she and their future, completely disappeared from sight.
"Brother Tangtang, in my grandfather's body..." Mo Tiantian lowered her head, her expression unrecognizable, but compared to the few people next to her who were too frightened and had red and swollen eyes, she adapted unusually smoothly.
Fangtang was not a wood-type mutant, so he did not answer. Li Jing, who was standing next to him, asked, "Do you think he will let you go?"
"..." Mo Tiantian looked up and smiled at them, tears sparkling in her eyes, but she tried hard not to let them fall.
She glanced at the five people in front of her. The oldest Fang Tang and the youngest Li Jing were unusually calm, while Pang Qin had not yet recovered from the incident and her eyes were a little dull. Liang Fei and Sun Tao stood on her left and right, whispering comfort to her.
"She has a fever, send her back to rest," Mo Tiantian pointed at Pang Qin.
Fangtang was surprised and went forward to touch her forehead. She found it was really hot - the little girl was scared.
"You two send her back. If Master Qi Le has any problems, we will come to find you." Mo Tiantian gave orders to the two boys over Fang Tang.
After all, she had been a divine messenger of the base for such a long time, and she had learned how to give orders with dignity. The two of them responded with an "okay", and then they looked at Fangtang as if they had reacted.
"Go ahead, and take some time to rest. We may be busy again later," said Fang Tang.
The two of them helped Pang Qin leave. Mo Tiantian looked at Li Jing again and was about to speak when Li Jing said, "I'll go with Brother Tangtang."
Fang Tang didn't deny it, "What do you want to say?"
He and Mo Tiantian became acquainted with each other after becoming psychics. As the people with the strongest psychics in the base, they had been the focus of the entire base since their team set out. Naturally, they were also treated specially by Qi Le, and had frequent contacts with the three great gods' messengers, and had even more contacts with Mo Tiantian, a healer of the same age.
"I want my grandfather to be alive." Mo Tiantian showed a tenacity that was completely different from her age. She said softly and looked at Fang Tang and Li Jing. They were both people who had no big tree to rely on. Their innocence was just a protective umbrella. When danger came, they could adapt faster than anyone else.
"I want my father to be alive too," Li Jing responded, with the hatred flashing in his eyes no less than that of an adult. The only relative who did not give up on her was living a hard life with her. She saw it with her own eyes. Anyone who wanted to make things difficult for the two of them who depended on each other for survival was her enemy.
Fang Tang did not express his opinion, but simply stated a fact, "You have seen Qi Le's strength. If we don't struggle, we may still be alive, but after struggling, we may die."
They are still useful to Qi Le. As long as they are obedient, the other party will not make things difficult for them in the short term.
"What about the future? Who can guarantee that I won't be the next Li Ming?" Mo Tiantian looked at Fang Tang, "If something happens to you, can Tang Yuan survive?"
Turning his gaze to Li Jing, "Where's your father?"
"My grandfather is old, and I want to give him a chance to spend his later years in peace."
The years they have gone through have made them mature, but their lack of experience has made them naive and unable to hide. She wants to find allies, but doesn't know how to test them. She can only pull out her own cards and show them to others sincerely, in an attempt to gain others' sincerity.
"I want to, too. Do you have any solution?" Li Jing was anxious.
Mo Tiantian didn't say anything. She looked at Fang Tang. Of the two, Li Jing was only eight years old and easier to see through, while Fang Tang was more like an adult and more difficult for her to control.
"I'm a healer. I can take you with me wherever we go in the future." Mo Tiantian added value to herself.
She herself has no fighting ability, so it is impossible to leave by relying on her alone, but it would be a different story if she had a combat-type partner.
Many bases have no shortage of combat-type psychics, but healing-type psychics are the target of competition.
Mo Tiantian is using her own abilities as a guide to form partners who can advance and retreat together.
Before Fang Tang could say anything, Mo Tiantian started to get nervous. She almost revealed her thoughts. If they couldn't be on the same page, they would most likely be betrayed and informed on.
Not daring to think about the consequences, she looked at the person who was wrapped like a cocoon not far away and asked, "Can Tangyuan withstand it?"
Fang Tang tensed up with her clenched fists, and then she heard Mo Tiantian's voice as light as smoke from a cooking stove, "An eight-year-old girl, without an adult, do you know what she might have gone through?"
Women are always a vulnerable group, and the same is true in the end times. Without strength in hand, the so-called equality is only equality given by others, which does not mean that there is no darkness hidden beneath equality.
Fang Tang suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Mo Tiantian. The fierceness in his eyes struck people's hearts. Mo Tiantian did not avoid or give in, "Your decision not only affects yourself, but also her future."
