Chapter 750: Missing
"Zheng Yi is missing."
Li Zhuang's words successfully stopped Lu Weiyi in his tracks. He turned his head in surprise and looked over. Li Zhuang nodded to indicate that the news was true.
"What's going on?" According to Zhuang Mingxu, Zheng Yi's ability is very close to upgrading to SS level. Lu Weiyi thinks that he will definitely spare no effort to upgrade. People at this level cannot be easily attacked by anyone. "Did Zhao Qiang do it?"
Li Zhuang shook his head and said, "It's hard to say. He had not shown up before Zhao Qiang came back. The affairs of the Zheng family army are now divided between an uncle of the Zheng family and Zheng Miao."
Seeing that Lu Weiyi didn't know this person at all, Li Zhuang explained Zheng Miao's identity and the grudge between her and Zheng Yi, "It is said that she is pregnant now."
"The child of two people with super powers?" Lu Weiyi immediately thought of Hua Rui's daughter, who was also the child of two people with super powers.
"The specific situation is unclear, but the part of the Zheng family that she has gathered has not completely submitted to Zhao Qiang. It is rumored that he has a big picture and wants to hand over all the power to his children in the future." Li Zhuang thought of his own son in front of him and sneered. He is a selfish person and would never think about future generations.
The Zheng family army was not there, and there was no news from Lu Xiao. Lu Weiyi looked at the few familiar faces in front of him and asked Li Zhuang, "Who do you think knows more?"
Li Zhuang's playful gaze swept over the captains of several Kyoto teams, like a cat watching its prey struggle before hunting, but finally fell on Sun Lin, the deputy captain of the guard team, "This is Zhao Qiang's confidant, he must know everything about that person."
"Do you want to arrest the person?" Li Zhuang was very interested and seemed to want to do it himself.
"No need to be so troublesome." Lu Weiyi took a few steps forward and stood directly in front of Sun Lin. The man, who was originally frowning as he watched the battle situation in the distance, looked confused for a moment, and then his eyes began to unfocus.
Li Zhuang was eager to see what Lu Weiyi was going to do, when he heard him ask bluntly without any concealment, "Who arrested Major General Lu Xiao?"
“……”Li Zhuang.
Even though he knew that it would be safe to follow Lu Weiyi into the enemy's front line, he still felt uneasy because someone was whispering next to him and he started the interrogation mode without any consideration.
He vigilantly observed the reactions of those around him, listened to their opinions on the current situation, and tried to find out each other's plans. There were two living people standing in front of each other, but they couldn't see them.
During the time when Sun Lin was silent, Li Zhuang began to feel nervous. After all, he was an S-level psychic, and this straightforward questioning always felt a little too easy for him.
Just as his breathing became lighter, Sun Lin spoke, "I don't know..."
"Didn't Zhao Qiang arrest Major General Lu?" Lu Weiyi asked.
"No, Major Lu has disappeared himself."
Lu Weiyi and Li Zhuang looked at each other and frowned unconsciously.
If Zheng Yi's disappearance might be caused by Zhao Qiang, then Lu Xiao was wary of them and the possibility of him falling into their trap was too low.
"Where are the other members of the Flame Team?" Li Zhuang asked.
"In...Kyoto, under surveillance."
"Can you ask him what happened specifically?" Li Zhuang suggested, seeing that it was so easy to ask.
Lu Weiyi shook his head and opened his palm, on which was a half-absorbed crystal core - his superpowers had been in a state of being consumed at any time since he came out, especially since he had just controlled the phoenix to knock out a cannonball. In order to ensure that he had enough superpowers for the future, he could only continue to absorb crystal cores.
The messenger beside him jogged back and stood in the place where the most people gathered, panting, his face still pale from overdrawing his supernatural powers.
"What's going on?"
"What was that gunfire noise just now?"
"I heard that the energy converters developed by Yuebanwan a long time ago include not only fire, but also ice and lightning. However, the latter two have never been used. Were they the two types just now?"
Amidst the numerous inquiries, the man gasped for a long time before speaking in a low voice, "All the heavy weapons that were ambushed have been taken away. They should be the ice converters you mentioned. It is said that they have all frozen into ice sculptures. A person will be turned into slag if pushed hard. The instruments have also lost their effect due to ultra-low temperature freezing."
"So what should we do about this?"
"Did they hide some other equipment? How could they find the ambushed weapons so accurately?"
"Did you hear the reminder from the mental shielding device before? Someone said..." The person who spoke pointed upwards, "The team that came back is arguing with Zhao Qiang and wants to quit."
"No... no way, isn't that already a no-man's land?"
"That's right, how is it possible? Are you scaring yourself?"
As each team had a different look on their face, Li Zhuang heard Lu Weiyi act as if he wasn't paying any attention to what they were saying, "Go to Kyoto and find Lieyan's people to ask for details."
This is the most reliable way to know the news about Lu Xiao at present. He believes that with Lu Xiao's influence in the team, his team members will definitely do their best to protect the team in a short period of time.
Li Zhuang pursed his lips unconsciously and hesitated, but finally didn't say anything more at this time. After making sure that Lu Xiao was not controlled by them, the two returned the same way.
Li Zhuang then mentioned, "The vehicles are now severely damaged. All the important equipment in our base has been dismantled and the parts have been stored. We hope that they can be used again after this period of fluctuations has stabilized."
"And in this weather..." Even if we have a car, it's really not suitable to go out.
"I have another way," Lu Weiyi said, his face stiffening, "get me an instrument to debug the direction."
Li Zhuang laughed, which made Lu Weiyi roll his eyes, and changed the subject, "Are they mentally ill or do they have a masochistic tendency to choose to take action in this weather?"
Lu Weiyi pointed at the group of people who were getting wet in the heavy rain. Even if the psychics had good physical fitness, it was not possible for them to never get sick.
"The radiation is the lowest during heavy rain. Although we don't know why, tests show that it is safest to travel during heavy rain or snow," Li Zhuang explained. "Have you been to our base?"
Lu Weiyi nodded and said, "Just passing by."
"You see, the ground of our base is completely solid. There is also a layer of water underneath. After being isolated, the radiation interference to people living underground is minimal." Li Zhuang said this with a smile on his face.
"That's amazing!" Lu Weiyi praised sincerely.
Li Zhuang crossed his hands leisurely at the back of his head and said in a teasing tone, "After all, it was handed down by the young master, so we have to protect it well."
Lu Weiyi paused, turned around and looked at him, his expression serious, "No."
"Li Zhuang, you are the most important." There were stars in his eyes, which were completely different from his previous indifference and alienation. He showed a thriving and energetic spirit, a bit of vigor that was belated for his age. "Whether it is the base, the people, or our research and development, they are all additions to our survival."
"If one day you really need to use these to save your life, I will be very happy that these things can save you."
This was his first feeling when he saw a group of people in the negotiation room guarding those things and refusing to let go.
Li Zhuang understood the meaning of the words, and his aura softened, but his tone remained nonchalant, "I know, young master."
After the joke, he asked again about the base's response. "Since the artillery fire was confirmed, the people in our base have been evacuating, but..."
"It is difficult to build an island with high safety performance in a short period of time. Most of the people in our base are ordinary people. Being under high radiation for a long time is tantamount to killing them. This increases the difficulty of evacuation. Most people have expressed their willingness to live and die with the base."
Lu Weiyi also felt that the action was a bit slow, and he didn't expect there was another reason. "What do you think we should do?"
He didn't know much about the base or even the outside world yet, so he couldn't give any advice rashly.
Li Zhuang sighed, and there was no better way for the moment, "Let's stabilize the situation at the base first."
"Why don't we rob their base?" Lu Weiyi's eyes lit up.
“?” Li Zhuang was puzzled.
"We are attacking the headquarters of several of their bases. Do they still care about this side?" Lu Weiyi said cunningly.
Li Zhuang's eyes instantly seemed to be looking at a silly child, "Little friend, even if the bases are now gathered together and the distances are close, we can't travel between several bases at such a fast speed."
He emphasized, "You know that the direct-line machine is no longer usable, right?"
"I have a way. As long as you can determine the location of the base," he would need to expend his supernatural powers to absorb more crystal cores.
Hearing him say this, Li Zhuang slowly smiled, "In that case, then..."
"I won't be polite."
Before the two of them even reached the negotiation room, they saw a group of people standing near the room. The rain made it difficult to see their specific appearance, but they could only make out that two parties were confronting each other.
As I hurriedly approached, I saw Zhao Qiang and a group of people standing behind the crowd. Unlike the people at the bottom, there were people holding umbrellas beside them.
It can be seen that this privilege is everywhere, and even in the end times it is not immune.
"Can you..." Li Zhuang stared at Zhao Qiang in the center of the crowd with a smile, "Just kill him and get rid of him once and for all."
Lu Weiyi looked at Li Zhuang's expression and found that he didn't seem to be joking.
It’s a little harder to “be able to”, but it’s not impossible. It’s just…
It is not easy to upgrade to SS level. Lu Weiyi thought of what Qi Le said and did not want to consume any high-level psychic.
"We know something, and I'll tell you slowly later. If possible, I don't want our psychics to fight first."
Li Zhuang did not evaluate whether what he said was right or not. When they were in the Kyoto base, they had clearly confronted Zheng's army, but he still did not kill him. He knew that he had Liberty City in his heart.
The two men approached quietly, and Lu Weiyi finally saw Zhao Qiang's appearance. After only a few months of not seeing him, Zhao Qiang, who was only a few years older than him, actually had white hair and looked more than five or six years older.
