Chapter 702 Negotiation
Lu Weiyi turned around and slashed the knife across his chest, chopping the attacker in half from the neck. He also saw something that horrified Zhuang Mingxu -
At the central control panel that I had just left, a small white fawn was lying on it, stretching its hooves and pressing the red button on the panel.
The silence lasted only a minute, and then a rustling sound came from all directions. Lu Weiyi quickly dealt with the few in front of him.
"Go first." There is a person with special abilities in every glass container surrounding here. If they are all controlled beings, they will definitely be the ones who suffer in a head-on confrontation.
"Xiaoyi, catch it!" After seeing Bai Lu press the button, Zhuang Mingxu ran into the darkness and shouted towards Lu Weiyi.
He had a hunch that it was the so-called Mountain God at the Mountain God Base.
Lu Weiyi took direct aim and shot the hooves twice. The little green branch reached out, tied up the four hooves of the white deer, and dragged it over upside down.
The pain made the white deer twitch constantly, tears rolled down from the corners of its eyes, it struggled and trembled, and when Lu Weiyi wasn't noticing, drastic changes occurred all over its body.
When Lu Weiyi threw it next to Zhuang Mingxu, he found that the small green branch was tied to a naked woman.
Her white hair was spread all over the ground as she was dragged, her hands were tied to a pair of animal hooves, and there were bloodstains from bullets on her white legs, but the bullet holes were shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Base commander... this... is this a human or a ghost?" Someone who saw its transformation clearly asked with a stuttering tone.
Although Zhuang Mingxu didn't understand what was going on, when he saw the healed bullet holes, he knew that his guess was correct. Their so-called Immortal Mountain God did have healing powers.
He had no sympathy for women at all. He grabbed the woman's chin and asked, "How do you control these things?"
The woman turned her head to the side, looking refusing to cooperate.
"Qi Le left you and you still want to hide it for him?" Zhuang Mingxu provoked, but the woman remained silent.
Lu Weiyi didn't dare let the Phoenix continue to consume his limited supernatural powers. Even though the other party was cursing, he still took it back into his consciousness.
Nothing could be asked in a short period of time. The people who came out of the glass container had already opened their eyes. Like robots that had just been turned on, they moved their joints and shook their heads. The liquid sticking to their bodies slowly flowed down, forming a puddle on the ground that did not melt into the ground.
"Take her with you." Zhuang Mingxu pinched the back of the woman's head and she fainted.
He spoke to the people around him, and led the team to run towards the exit. Looking at the dense crowds of "people" rushing up, Lu Weiyi did not try to keep up with them.
"You go first." Lu Weiyi used his mental power to isolate the breath of the group of people, turned around and ran towards the passage they came in from.
"Xiao Yi——!" The words "don't go" were already on the tip of his tongue, but Zhuang Mingxu swallowed them back. He looked at the figure running away and met his eyes looking back. He only had time to say "be careful".
As the breath of Zhuang Mingxu and his group disappeared, hundreds of people in the hall targeted Lu Weiyi. As he entered the passage, they crowded behind him, and the passage was even blocked because it was too narrow to accommodate two people entering at the same time.
But they were unconscious and didn't know how to retreat. They just pushed forward with all their strength, and they squeezed in even after scraping off a layer of skin.
Just by looking at the way they were all chasing after him, they knew how much Lu Weiyi attracted them. The people who followed Zhuang Mingxu with bated breath looked at him and asked in a low voice, "Base Commander, should we... follow him?"
The hall was originally packed with "people", but now only a dozen or so people were left scattered behind. They looked around like zombies with no sense of flesh and blood.
"No, let's go up and find Zhou He and others for support as soon as possible. It would be better if we can catch Qi Le," said Zhuang Mingxu as he turned around and walked towards the exit.
There was no need to look for a route. The bloodstains left by Qi Le were enough to lead the way. Zhuang Mingxu and a few others appeared at the end of the passage in a short while.
The exit was a staircase leading upwards. The injured Qi Le was lying underneath with no intention of going up. He seemed to be waiting for them to come, which made Zhuang Mingxu even more alert - he had not yet figured out the composition of the fog spread in the central control area, and how the sneak attack was carried out.
“You’re so slow.”
Qi Le's glasses were lost at some point, his eyes were gloomy, and his white coat was stained with blood. He looked around, but didn't find any trace of Lu Weiyi. He looked strangely, "Is your base commander dead?"
"Our base commander will be fine even if you die," someone said quickly, and Zhuang Mingxu looked at him and glanced suggestively in Qi Le's direction.
Someone immediately understood what he meant and walked in an inconspicuous direction.
"You'd better not do anything tricky." Qi Le shook the remote control in his hand and planned, "I'm already like this, I don't mind dying here, but do you want to come with me?"
As if he thought of something, he chuckled, "It's not bad to have an SSS-level psychic buried with me."
"What do you want?" Zhuang Mingxu didn't respond to him and asked back.
Qi Le stared at Zhuang Mingxu for a long time and said, "Give her to me."
"A monster that is neither human nor animal, you don't really believe that she is a fairy, do you?" Zhuang Mingxu was surprised as if he knew nothing, and at the same time stretched out his hand to flick the woman's hoof - there should have been a pair of jade feet here, but now it looked abrupt and ugly.
The woman seemed to be stimulated by something even though the force was not strong. She trembled in her coma. Qi Le's face changed instantly. "If you dare to touch her again, we will die together."
"Don't think you can get out alive just because you have a high level. As long as I seal the exit, the people inside will be trapped to death." Qi Le glared at Zhuang Mingxu.
Zhuang Mingxu raised his hands in a gesture of surrender and asked, "I'm curious, what on earth is this?"
"Is it an animal that has become a spirit?" With Taotao's experience, Zhuang Mingxu was very receptive to strange things. He asked while staring at Qi Le without blinking, "Or is it that a human was forced to... become an animal?"
Qi Le didn't look at him, but just kept staring at the woman. He didn't intend to answer at all. He just said, "Don't waste time. Give her to me quickly."
"Don't worry. Even if I give it to you, she is unconscious and can't treat your injuries. You can't leave with a burden. Why don't we have a frank talk?" Zhuang Mingxu was like a fox who deceived people and persuaded them step by step.
"You see, after talking in detail with the Mountain God Base, we found that there were no major conflicts. Moreover, the last time our base was attacked by the Panshui Base, Lord Mountain God even sent people to support us."
"Before Zhou He and his group were injured, they were able to return alive thanks to the help of the Mountain God Base. Even though you attacked Wu Yue this time, but... isn't he fine?"
"Maybe there is some misunderstanding between us. We can just talk it out. As the only two bases that advocate equality for all, the same philosophy won't lead us to the point of fighting each other. What is there that cannot be explained?"
"And I'm also optimistic about your abilities. In this small base, the resources you can get are definitely limited. If you have the investment from our base..."
Zhuang Mingxu seemed to know nothing about his identity and was simply talking about the Mountain God Base.
Qi Le lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then said, "I can explain what happened this time, but you have to tell me about the Mountain God first."
Fearing that the amount was not enough, he added, "I am the most loyal believer of the Mountain God."
"I really want to believe you, but your ability is really dangerous. What if I hand the people over to you and you attack us..." Zhuang Mingxu shook his head, his tone filled with disbelief. "However, as someone who can research those things, do you actually believe in the so-called gods?"
After he said that, he seemed to find it funny and started laughing, "You really don't look like it."
With Zhuang Mingxu's previous ignorance, Qi Le seemed to be a lot more relaxed. "Miracles are something you can only believe after you see them."
"I believe that after you have seen it enlighten a person with superpowers, you will believe it too," Qi Le said, looking at Zhuang Mingxu, "I have heard that the deputy base commander of Yuebanwan is an ordinary person, and he got the position of base commander by relying on gigolos."
Seeing that Zhuang Mingxu's face was gradually becoming gloomy, Qi Le asked, "Don't you want to try the feeling of awakening your superpowers? The people that Lord Mountain God has enlightened recently are all top-level S-class superpowers."
"If we reach a cooperation, Lord Mountain God may be able to help you develop SS-level supernatural powers if he pays a little more attention."
"Don't you want to try it?"
Zhuang Mingxu didn't say anything, as if he was hesitating. After a while, he said, "I don't believe in the so-called gods, but..."
He pointed behind him and said, "I'm more interested in this. I want to know how this was done."
Without waiting for Qi Le to answer, he continued to ask, "They don't look like high-level zombies, but they have some characteristics of high-level zombies, such as... their bodies are maintained at a stage where they no longer rot, but they don't have the bloodthirstiness of zombies. Is this your masterpiece?"
Perhaps the last two words pleased Qi Le. He raised his head slightly and said, "Of course, I still have more tricks that I haven't used yet."
"Do you mean that he clearly has no superpowers but can act like someone with superpowers?" Zhuang Mingxu introduced him.
The arrogance on Qi Le's face froze for a moment, and Zhuang Mingxu immediately knew that this thing was not made by him.
"Yes," Qi Le looked Zhuang Mingxu up and down, "Do you want to try it? With this, your own abilities will be greatly improved, comparable to high-level psychics, and I guarantee that no one will say that you are a gigolo anymore."
Zhuang Mingxu's expression changed for a moment, but he quickly recovered and said politely, "Of course I want to experience good things."
"Then you have to show your sincerity." Every word Qi Le said was stimulating Zhuang Mingxu's face as a man. Feeling that his attitude was loosening, he immediately asked for benefits.
