Chapter 594: Relocation
This young man, who had once been a traitor to all the base leaders, was now covered in bombs, his clothes had been shredded into pieces, and there was a vicious look in his eyes, like a hero walking alone towards a dead end, with the determination to risk everything and never look back.
Li Zhuang's gaze passed through him and inadvertently glanced at Antonio behind him.
The sky above them suddenly exploded, burying the two unprepared fire-type mutants. Gu Qingji managed to stand firm with the help of the mutant plants and dragged Antonio out immediately.
But the car, which had turned into a ball, was buried underground. Antonio, who was usually very calm, seemed to have lost his mind. He tried to dig the air out with his bare hands, shouting Dean's name, feeling panicked and at a loss.
Although they were two figures that had nothing in common, Li Zhuang sensed something in common: they both had a lover for whom they were willing to give everything.
Li Zhuang suddenly felt a little envious and missed the person in the base. He hadn't seen him for so long and wondered if he was still thinking about him.
He stretched out his hand to sense the position of the car in the mud, and controlled the soil layer to send a metal ball up.
The collapse came too suddenly, and there were three psychics hiding nearby, all of whom were buried inside.
Li Zhuang thought about it and decided not to be the good guy.
"Dean... Dean... baby..." Antonio quickly stepped forward and used his supernatural powers to control the metal to open the door on the car ball again.
"The rest is up to you." Li Zhuang stretched lazily. Under normal circumstances, he would have fought to the death with Zhao Qiang, but...
He still has an entire base waiting to be protected and cannot waste his energy here.
Thinking of this, Li Zhuang couldn't help laughing. It felt really good to be needed.
"You'd better not touch my Brother Jin." Pang Xinghuo controlled a very thin flame in his hand, which extended from his fingers to the ground, as if it had entered the underground, but there was no visible change in the soil layer.
"Don't worry, it will be safe," Li Zhuang said. He used his psychic ability to feel it and found that the temperature of the stratum extended by his flames was gradually rising. He was forcing Zhao Qiang, who was buried underground, to show up.
This is a good usage, so Li Zhuang decided to go back and ask Liu Rui to study it.
Thinking that he had gained something, Li Zhuang was kind enough to reveal a piece of news to Pang Xinghuo, "The psychics in the guard team have no ability to repair nerves. Even if they help you connect your arm, it's still just a decoration."
Pang Xinghuo, who had his back to him, suddenly turned around and looked at him, his eyes so sharp that it seemed as if he wanted to tear a piece of flesh from his body.
Li Zhuang was not moved at all. Seeing that Antonio had opened a gap in the car ball and was walking towards that side, he said, "But the healing system in Yueban Bay can do it. It can even give birth to a new arm."
Without waiting for Pang Xinghuo to get excited, he casually glanced at the soil that was beginning to wriggle on the ground and said, "It depends on what you can exchange for."
After saying that, he walked towards Antonio leisurely as if he had completed a task. There, Antonio was already hugging his boyfriend tightly.
"I'm so scared, baby, I'm so scared..." Antonio kept whispering and kissing Dean's forehead over and over again. Dean also patted his back to comfort the trembling big guy.
"Are you just not going to care about us?" Lu Xi and He Song were still in the cart ball. If they tried to get out by themselves, they would be rolled to other places by the ball. He shouted at the two of them unhappily.
"Guan" Gu Qingji found it funny. He used the mutant plants to grab the two people and drag them out. Only then could he see the space inside clearly.
The entire armored vehicle was compressed, full of potholes and mess, and there was only a small space to accommodate three people.
"I'm not hurt at all. Lu Xi has been using his supernatural powers to resist." He Song moved his body and said this.
Several people changed cars and set off again, and then they talked about the specific matters.
In addition to the four psychics who are in the open, there are two other psychics who have been hiding in the cave created by Zhao Qiang. They have not taken any action and no one has sensed them.
It was not until later that Antonio fought with two metal-type psychics that the power no longer covered the entire vehicle. The two people underground quietly opened a hole under the car, hoping to quietly capture the people inside.
As the protector inside, Lu Xi was always alert. When he realized something was wrong, he immediately covered the three people in the car with his mental power.
After all, it was an S-level ability, which prevented them from succeeding and also alarmed Antonio. With them fighting outside, the situation of the three people inside was much better.
Later, when Zhao Qiang decided to kill him, it was Lu Xi's mental barrier that kept resisting. Otherwise, it would have been extremely easy for several high-level metal-type psychics to quickly solidify the car.
"It was so thrilling, luckily everything is fine." Antonio hugged Dean in his arms, his heartbeat still not calmed down.
"It's okay, Lu Xi is very powerful," Dean comforted him.
"It's really amazing and very vigilant," He Song couldn't help but praise, "I was thinking about taking off the superpower jammer at that time, but Lu Xi kept comforting me saying that it was not the right time yet."
Continuing to use the supernatural power would likely make the situation worse if there was a crack in the crystal core. He Song never removed the jammer after knowing this, but if the situation was critical, he naturally couldn't care less.
"Xiaoxi has indeed made an invaluable contribution to this trip. If you need anything later, you can go back and ask Ningyuan for it," Li Zhuang also praised.
Of course, he was also referring to the last time the crystal core was safely delivered. At the time, he just thought he was the best candidate. Thinking about it afterwards, it was still a bit risky. After all, Lu Xi was young and had never carried out any mission alone.
Li Zhuang was on high alert for those two days, and fortunately Lu Xi did it successfully.
"It's okay, it's because you believe in me." Lu Xi waved his hand implicitly.
Several people were talking excitedly as they continued to shuttle through the makeshift underground passage. They could still hear the sounds of psychics fighting or weapons exploding, but they were no longer directed at them.
In another car not far away, Jin Yuan looked out the window. Every sound of a bomb made his whole body tremble unconsciously.
He was afraid, afraid that the next sound would come, and also afraid that the next sound would not come.
It's easy to be disgusted by a man who is so fragile, but coupled with his skinny and broken appearance, it's a bit heartbreaking. However, no one said anything to comfort him.
When the convoy was halfway through its journey at full speed, a message was received from the psychic who was exploring the way ahead.
Someone was approaching them from a thousand meters away.
"They are all high-level psychics. I'm not sure of their exact number, but I can only detect that the psychic group gathered together is very powerful."
"This is never-ending, is it?" Xu Sa was annoyed. Just as he was about to contact Li Zhuang to discuss how to deal with the situation, he heard the person in front of him continue, "They stopped."
"What's the meaning?"
"The car has stopped. Should we send someone to investigate, or just change the route?"
Xu Sa glanced at the direction the other party was coming from on the map, and an idea suddenly occurred to him. He asked Li Zhuang, "Did the base say they would send someone to pick us up?"
"I told you, I didn't let him." Li Dongsheng was the only one who successfully upgraded in the base, so Li Zhuang felt more at ease letting him stay in the base.
Just as Xu Sa was about to give the order to take a detour, he heard Gu Qingyue's gentle voice coming from the intercom, "Xu Sa, it's me. Brother Li and I are leading a team to pick you up."
"Brother?" Gu Qingji was surprised.
"Yeah," Gu Qingyue responded, and soon joined the others.
Only then did Xu Sa see that they only drove one car. Besides Gu Qingyue and Li Dongsheng, there was only the earth-type mutant Xiong Jie driving the car.
"Are you here to support us?" Xu Sa pointed at the three people, incredulous.
"The trump card is up there," Gu Qingyue pointed to the ground.
"What kind of killer move is that? Can it defeat that idiot Zhao Qiang?" Xu Sa asked excitedly.
"It's just a mutant plant." Li Dongsheng told the story embarrassedly. Xu Sa didn't think too much about it. When he heard that an SS-level mutant plant was coming to pick them up, he immediately became excited.
"Come on, Brother Li, go and avenge us. You don't know that those dogs in the guard team are not human at all. If I didn't want to lead the team back safely, I would have to kill them." Xu Sa pulled Li Dongsheng as if he wanted to go back.
Li Zhuang did not stop them, and even sent the angry Antonio over, letting them go together, while he led the team back.
On the way, Gu Qingyue briefly talked about the situation in the team, "Ning Yuan made the final attack this morning and should have succeeded by now. Bai Miao is almost there too. Brother Xiong and I are still a little short. The next one is Li Qing, and the rest..." He shook his head, indicating that it would be impossible in a short time.
"That's good. This time when I go back, I will lead the team out again and try my best to let everyone upgrade successfully before the sea freezes." Li Zhuang was making plans for the next step. Seeing Gu Qingyue frowning, he asked him what was wrong.
"As for Laoshan..." Gu Qingyue pursed her lips, "I haven't received any news since you came back."
"We completely lost touch."
**
Thousands of miles away.
Laoshan.
The primeval forest after the heavy snow was filled with thick white fog all day long. At first it was only in the morning, but as the temperature dropped, it became foggy even during the day.
It was said that there would be miasma in the depths of the primitive jungle that had not seen light for a long time. Zhuang Mingxu was worried that there was something wrong with the fog, so after discussing with Wu Yue, he moved their temporary base several thousand meters underground.
The naturally formed caves underground have been transformed by earth-type mutants to become warm and livable.
The large group moved out extremely quickly, but the difficult part was Lu Weiyi's departure.
If people are too close to him, they will be affected by his mental power, and if they are too far away, they will not be able to be transported.
Finally, the wood-type mutant wrapped him into a cocoon with plants, dragged him all the way and placed him in the newly decorated room.
The new room was not far from where the main force was. The entire force formed a circle around where he was and guarded him in the middle.
But because it is underground, anyone with ulterior motives can build a passage and get close, making it difficult to defend against.
In the end, Taotao went into the mountains again and "captured" a Class A mutant plant.
