Chapter 858: Meeting an Old Friend
The superpowers are restricted!
This was not the first time he had heard of this. When the solar storm was at its most intense, Zhang Qing used his earth-based abilities to move them underground, but his abilities were exhausted after only a hundred meters.
Even if the radiation intensity has weakened now, it seems reasonable.
Cheng Qi is at SS level, and can only last for an hour now. It won’t take long for Qin Jin and I to upgrade to SSS. If there is any impact, it may not be much better.
Lu Weiyi looked at the mutant animals surging around him, and his supernatural powers transformed into invisible energy blades that rushed out indiscriminately in all directions. As a gap was opened, he patted the little monkey who was fiercely slapping the attackers with his palms, and shouted to a zombie, "Go."
The little monkey ran towards the gap at a very fast speed, followed by several zombies. Qin Jin stayed at the end to cover their retreat, while Lu Weiyi's mental blades were still being fired in all directions. In an instant, the jungle was filled with a strong smell of blood.
The smell of blood aroused the instincts of several zombies. Lu Weiyi could clearly see that their pace had slowed down. Cheng Qi was still able to control himself. Reason prevailed and he immediately quickened his pace, while Xu Xiao was lured and looked back frequently.
The mutated animals that had originally been targeting them were also aroused and began to attack the animals around them.
In the melee, Lu Weiyi and the little monkey left extremely smoothly, while the zombies following him seemed to stagger and even slow down in the end.
Lu Weiyi sat on the little monkey's shoulder, frowning and trying his best to stop the mutant animals from catching up. Suddenly, a roar came from Qin Jin's mouth, and the human appearance that was usually concealed was gone. At this time, Qin Jin's pupils could no longer be seen. The whites of his eyes stared at the zombies in front of him with an inorganic look. His grinning mouth looked like a clown's huge mouth. Fortunately, he did not have exaggerated red lips, but the exposed teeth could be clearly seen to be obviously different from those of humans - his teeth were sharp, like a carnivore.
The roar shook the mountains and forests. Lu Weiyi could feel invisible energy emanating from his body. Cheng Qi and the other zombies in front of him shrank instantly, showing obvious fear. The low-level Xu Xiao even shrank his entire body into a ball.
This should be the pressure from the legendary zombie king, right?
Lu Weiyi was extremely excited and was just about to study it when he noticed the little monkey under him suddenly looked back, then used both hands to carry him and quickly ran into the woods.
"Hey, hey." Lu Weiyi looked at Qin Jin blankly as he almost disappeared from his sight, but the little monkey still didn't stop.
"Qin Jin" he shouted, and Qin Jin's eyes suddenly turned towards him. Hundreds of meters away, Lu Weiyi had a feeling of being locked by zombies, and then they were blocked from view by the criss-crossing and chaotic jungle, and there was no trace of them anymore.
The forest is the world of monkeys. With the full strength of the little monkey, Lu Weiyi completely lost his way in a short while. Lu Weiyi could only ask the little monkey in his consciousness, "What's wrong with you? Where are you going? 】
[I feel danger] The little monkey responded by slowing down, and at this time they had entered another unfamiliar place.
The surrounding trees were different from the previous ones. Lu Weiyi climbed up a tall tree, found a place with slightly higher terrain, and guided the little monkey there.
The little monkey should know that he has made a mistake. He is in a low mood and looks sad.
[Go over there and send a signal flare to Qin Jin, they will definitely catch up then.] Lu Weiyi comforted him, and suddenly thought of the current suppression of superpowers, feeling a little puzzled.
He felt his own supernatural powers. He had been consuming them before and didn't feel that there was any big difference. If it were based on Cheng Qi's consumption level, after such a battle, his supernatural powers would not be exhausted, but should be around half. However, at this time it was only a tiny bit.
Lu Weiyi couldn't figure it out, but he didn't insist. After being carried by the little monkey for a few hours, he arrived at the small hill he had chosen in advance that evening.
After firing a flare into the sky to Qin Jin, he prepared his dinner with peace of mind.
A day of scorching heat made the jungle like a steamer. Lu Weiyi had already sweated several times in half a day, but thinking that there was a big eater waiting to be fed in front of him, Lu Weiyi did not change his clothes first.
Taking out some dry firewood from the space, Lu Weiyi lit it neatly and put it on the grill. The little monkey who was already familiar with the process immediately handed over the mutant animals they had caught along the way.
"This was all work done by others. I didn't expect that I would have another monkey now." Lu Weiyi skinned a mutant rabbit and plucked the feathers of several mutant birds and pickled them.
The little monkey excitedly circled around him, making the ground thump, "Be quiet, where do you get all that energy?"
Lu Weiyi complained like this, but he still felt a little distressed when he saw the injuries the little monkey had suffered along the way. "I don't know if the zombies with special powers can heal the injuries of animals."
Thinking of this, he simply lit the firewood. The moment the flame appeared at his fingertips, he paused.
He seemed to understand a little bit about the reason why his special ability was consumed so slowly - ever since he knew that direct energy attacks were more powerful, he had intentionally trained some of his attacks, and the original mental blade had been transformed into an energy blade under conditioned reflex.
The energy in the body generates superpowers, and radiation is simply a kind of energy. Even if what the research institute said before is correct, then the awakening of their superpowers is also related to radiation. In that case, could it be that radiation can suppress the use of superpowers but cannot affect the direct use of energy?
Lu Weiyi stared at the fire in his hand in silence. What brought him back to his senses was the sound of someone running over, accompanied by a cry for help.
Doesn't sound like one of them.
[Is there anyone here?] 】Lu Weiyi asked the little monkey.
The little monkey also shook his head blankly, and in a very human way, put his hands above his eyes and made a looking-out gesture.
But before he could see clearly, Lu Weiyi's mental power probed out first, and what he saw were two men carrying crystal core guns, and behind them were several mutant animals that Lu Weiyi could not distinguish. They were the size of normal humans, and their bodies were slender like monkeys, even with long tails, but their heads were similar to those of mice.
Is that your relative? 】 Lu Weiyi asked the little monkey this while walking towards them.
The woods were overgrown with weeds and were not smooth. A man stumbled and fell to the ground. The mutant animals that were chasing him immediately attacked him.
"Liu Zhuo, run, don't worry about me." The man pushed something in his hand towards the other party, "Take it back, quickly--"
"Wang Qing!"
"Go!" the man on the ground shouted, turned around and stretched out his hand towards the animal following behind him. Countless icicles instantly attacked the opposite side, "You=I'll stop you, go quickly and take the medicine back."
Seeing him like this, the man didn't say anything. He turned around and ran away. His choked voice was heard behind him, "I will definitely bring the medicine back."
Bing Ling's single wave of attack caused limited damage to the mutant animals, only slightly blocking their advance. Then, she pounced on the man like a cheetah hunting its prey.
Just before the creature was about to pounce on him, a mental barrier blocked the attack and the animal hit the barrier with a bang.
Seeing this, the man reacted quickly and got up. However, when he fell, his leg was pierced by the broken branches on the ground. He staggered and fell to the ground again. The man who had run far away looked back and saw this scene. He immediately turned around, grabbed the man and said, "Go quickly."
"The people in front must have discovered us," he said, shouting for help at the top of his lungs and running towards Lu Weiyi.
Hearing them say this, Lu Weiyi understood that these two people must have seen the flare he fired and were deliberately running towards him. He immediately stopped where he was and did not move forward.
Not long after, the two people appeared in sight, but the first thing that caught the eye was the huge little monkey. The two of them took a step back together, and the fear in their expressions could not be hidden. The crystal core guns that they had been holding were also held in their hands.
"Hey, are you from the base nearby?" Lu Weiyi, who was sitting on the little monkey's shoulder, asked.
He recalled what Qin Jin said. This was the Jin Province area, and the most likely location was the Jin Province base. Thinking of Pang Xinghuo who was killed by him, he felt that it would be better not to expose his identity here.
Unexpectedly, when the two men saw him, they shouted, "Captain Lu!"
"..."Lu Weiyi.
For the first time, he felt that he had become so famous.
"I'm Liu Zhuo, that is..." One of the men seemed to want to describe it in detail, and it was the man with the injured leg next to him who spoke up, "We are soldiers under Colonel Qin Xing. We stayed with you at the Yuebanwan base for a period of time."
It took Lu Weiyi a while to react before he searched his memory to figure out who Qin Xing was - he was the head of the Jin Province Military District. When they came here, they exchanged a lot of weapons and took away a few people when they left. But Lu Weiyi didn't pay attention to these people's movements later, and he didn't expect to meet them here.
"Hello." Lu Weiyi nodded at them, quietly passed a message to Zhuang Mingxu to ask about the follow-up of those people, turned and walked outside, asking them why they were here, especially two of them.
"My wife's body was seriously damaged after giving birth, so the old Chinese doctor in the village prescribed a prescription for her treatment. However, the medicinal herbs in the village have been almost all picked up in the past few years, so I thought of trying something outside," Wang Qing said, glancing at Liu Zhuo beside him, "Originally, I planned to come here alone, but was discovered by Liu Zhuo."
"It's too dangerous outside, so I'll accompany him," Liu Zhuo said, looking behind him with lingering fear, "We often came here for inspections before... and were a little careless."
"I'm sorry for getting you into trouble, brother. I almost got into trouble here."
