Chapter 889: Getting Beaten
The perception of the people in the illusion was affected, and their concept of time became blurred. After Lu Weiyi knew that Antonio was coming, he closed his eyes and waited quietly.
But the other three inexperienced people couldn't do it. They were still talking at first, but as it got dark, the hunger in their bodies gradually rose.
But there was nothing around except grass, which made it impossible for the three of them to get something to eat.
"Base commander, are you hungry?" Sun Kai hinted to Lu Weiyi with a flattering look on his face. The other two didn't say anything, but they also looked over.
When I didn't feel it before, it seemed bearable, but now that it's spoken, it makes me feel so hungry that I can't tolerate it.
"In terms of time, it must have been not long. I suggest you not to eat anything." Especially after the last experience, Lu Weiyi felt that he was not sure what the food here was.
In fact, the more crucial thing is that his space was not affected last time, but this time the space could not sense it. Fortunately, the little green branch seemed to be completely unaffected, and he could still use the little green branch to get things.
"This will magnify some of your feelings, so it's best not to think about anything. Antonio will definitely act quickly. The fact that it hasn't been resolved yet only proves that a short time has passed."
After hearing what he said, the three of them nodded in agreement even though they kept swallowing, but their voices gradually became lower, and in the end, no one spoke. Until Lu Weiyi opened his eyes, he found that the three people opposite him were holding their stomachs and their faces were pale.
When she met his gaze and smiled, he felt as if she was glowing green. Lu Weiyi held his forehead and said, "Forget it. I have the steamed buns that Zhuang Mingxu put in my space before. I made them for emergency use. Except that they are a little big and solid, they should be fine to eat. You can use them as a cushion."
"May I?"
Lu Weiyi felt that only a short while had passed, but Sun Kai's voice was weak.
"Of course, having thick thighs is a bit strange."
Lu Weiyi took out a white flour bun from the space without changing his expression. Although it felt very discordant, the three of them felt that something was wrong. Each of them took one and stuffed it into their mouths voraciously.
In the eyes of Antonio and his companions, they saw Lu Weiyi take out a multi-grain rice stick made by Zhuang Aiyi and put it in the hands of the three people. Antonio still remembered that they made it for fun last year. At that time, he described it as thick and long like a long baba. Especially due to their lack of experience, the taste was a world of difference. No one wanted to touch it a second time. They didn't expect to see it again today, and in someone else's mouth.
Antonio felt that something else was happening when he saw their actions, and he looked around and suspected that the rest were probably near the cliff.
But no one dared to go there, for fear that another person would fall into it and the result would be more trouble than gain.
“No more waiting, drag the person away from there. If they can’t find the thing, they can always get out of that area.”
"The base commander won't attack, right?" someone asked and suggested, "Otherwise, just let the earth-type mutants move the ground."
Antonio paused for a moment at Lu Weiyi, who was meditating with his eyes closed, and finally agreed with their idea. He waved to an earth-type mutant and reminded him, "Hurry up, don't dawdle."
"I understand," the man said as he moved slightly closer to the direction where Lu Weiyi and his group were.
At this time, Sun Kai inside suddenly asked, "Base Commander, are you sure the person before was Antonio? Is it possible that..."
Lu Weiyi opened his eyes and looked at Sun Kai with a cold gaze, forcing him to block the rest of his words. At this moment, Lu Weiyi felt a supernatural wave coming from under him. He immediately stretched out the small green branch, only to find that the place where they were sitting was moving. Seeing that the other three had not noticed it, he tried his best to calm himself, but he had to say that Sun Kai's words also had a certain impact on him.
Fortunately, it didn't take long. In the blink of an eye, the scene in front of him changed rapidly. Returning to darkness, Lu Weiyi looked at the familiar scenes around him and the people waiting, and finally fixed his attention on the leader Antonio.
He didn't move or speak, and even when the others beside Antonio shouted for people to come forward, he took a step back slightly and looked at them with suspicion.
Intellectually, he knew that if there really was help, Lu Xiao would most likely send Antonio, but emotionally he knew that he and Dean were inseparable, so Lu Weiyi would not be surprised if he came, nor would he be surprised if he did not come.
This made it even harder for him to determine whether the person in front of him was real or just a figment of his imagination.
Antonio, who noticed the situation, raised his hand to stop others from approaching and took a step forward. Just when Lu Weiyi was thinking about everything that might need to be coordinated, Antonio said sincerely, "Captain, there is something that I have been hiding from you for a long time."
While Lu Weiyi was stunned, he heard him continue, "I saw Zhuang and Yin Jin hugging in the office."
The eyes of the people around who were looking for gossip were immediately fixed on him, and they didn't even care about the few people who had just come out of the illusion and hadn't reacted yet. Their eyes seemed to want to tell Antonio directly, "If you can talk, come up with more."
Just when Lu Weiyi was stunned and incredulous, someone in front kicked Antonio with such force that even though Antonio had protected himself, he was still kicked and fell to his knees beside Lu Weiyi.
Lu Weiyi looked at Qin Jin and saw that he wanted to kill him, so he didn't need to confirm it anymore. He stepped forward to help him up and said in a complicated way, "You are really not afraid of death."
Qin Jin walked forward with a gloomy face and was about to take action, but was stopped by Ning Yuan who was chasing him, "Calm down, calm down, do you know who Mingxu is? He has been stubborn for so many years, how can he change? Besides, he will never attack his own family."
"Heh." Qin Jin was not annoyed by these words, but by the fact that he dared to make fun of Yin Jin. Fortunately, he knew the seriousness of the matter and did not make a fuss with Antonio.
On the other hand, Antonio did not get angry at all because of this sudden attack, and he even had a vague admiration for the power of SSS.
"We saw the distress bomb and guessed it was you who fired it." Ning Yuan explained the reason why they came here to the golden eagle who had just been released, and asked Lu Weiyi, "Why are you here too?"
The golden eagle informed the other party of its discoveries and what had happened to them.
Antonio came back to his senses and looked at Lu Weiyi, "Is there something wrong with your ability?"
Everyone else looked at Lu Weiyi, especially Sun Kai and the other two who were in his group.
Lu Weiyi nodded and said, "It was just now, it's okay now."
"Then you told us that your superpowers are completely fine, and asked us to imagine that our own superpowers are also fine?" Sun Kai found it incredible.
"It's just a guess, but it obviously fooled you." But he didn't fool himself. Even though he kept telling himself not to be affected, the depths of his consciousness were still out of control.
"Is the feeling inside real? I feel like I'm really falling off a cliff." The golden eagle still has the feeling of falling from a high altitude.
"That should be the case." Lu Weiyi pinched his brows and felt that the situation this time was a little hard to say.
Several people observed the several small instruments that Antonio brought over, and asked people to check around to see if there were any omissions. Two were sent back to the base for analysis, and the rest were passed on for research.
"So this is the thing that caused our last situation?" Qin Jin was holding a crude device that looked like a battery charger, but the difference was that the crystal core was placed in the place where the battery should be.
At first glance, it looks like a low-quality product and doesn't seem like the culprit that could trap so many people in an illusion.
"Although the coverage area this time is small, the power is not necessarily weak." Lu Weiyi still doesn't understand the principle of how this thing works. The consciousness of a psychic is difficult to change, but this thing can have an impact silently.
Considering the grouping of these people, it is not difficult to guess the number of these things around. Being able to put so many in this place proves that the cost may not be high.
Lu Weiyi looked at the injured person on the side and felt that the situation seemed a bit tricky. Thinking of the possible consequences of leaving this thing anywhere, he became even more impatient because he could not leave immediately due to the delay.
He sent a message to the people at the base to expedite the process, then turned to look at the bright cliff illuminated by torches. Instead of going there, he directly used his supernatural powers to explore there.
If it can affect living things, it will definitely affect superpowers.
As expected, Lu Weiyi's supernatural power did not encounter any accidents. He went down inch by inch along the iron stairs where the golden eagle had stood before, and he found a slightly larger instrument hidden in the mezzanine of the dilapidated steps.
Being different in size from the others, it immediately attracted everyone's attention. Knowing its location, Antonio guessed that this might have triggered the others, otherwise it would not explain why there was no movement before and everyone was ambushed this time.
"The stairs are in tatters and I really didn't check them carefully." The golden eagle was also a little annoyed by his own carelessness.
"Let our people study the principle behind their joint opening." Antonio watched from afar with no intention of getting closer, "Be careful they don't fall into our trap."
Lu Weiyi nodded and continued to send his mental power downwards. About ten meters away from the suspended cave, he found more than a dozen of these things. It was obvious that they were left behind deliberately by the other party to ambush them when they left.
Lu Weiyi gritted his teeth, and then he heard Ning Yuan puzzled, "Did you make a mistake? Maybe Wei Minglang was not rescued?"
"Did you find anything?" Antonio looked at him.
Ning Yuan raised his eyebrows with a bit of pride on his face, "You will never guess what we found."
Antonio silently took a step back. Lu Weiyi and the others who had just been tricked began to grind their teeth. Even the golden eagle began to move its joints. He smiled with one corner of his mouth, "How about I guess with my fist?"
"Haha, you're welcome, you're welcome," Ning Yuan laughed, and then said seriously, "We found the missing section of the trunk of the mutant banyan tree."
As he spoke, he took out a two-meter-square tree trunk from the space. The energy that was constantly emanating from it allowed Lu Weiyi to recognize at a glance that it was indeed the mutant banyan tree, but the appearance...
It is not a round hole formed in the trunk, but a miniature sapling with roots, branches and leaves attached. In detail, it is similar to the energy body of the mutated banyan tree.
