Chapter 642: Not Distinguishing Right from Wrong
The explosion caused a collapse, and the temporarily opened road was not spared. At the last moment, Sun Cheng weaved the vines into an egg cocoon and protected the three people inside.
The soft vines were completely supported by his special abilities, so he could only keep urging Qi Guang to absorb the crystal core quickly.
"Thank you." Zhao Gang's hoarse voice sounded in the darkness, startling the two of them.
"Brother Zhao, you are not unconscious? Then why don't you resist?" Sun Cheng asked bluntly.
You have to know that this person is more powerful than Zhou He among them, otherwise the other party would not be at ease letting others leave with him.
"Don't mention it. I was careless." Zhao Gang didn't elaborate, and Sun Cheng didn't ask any more questions at this time.
Knowing that he was not injured, they turned their attention to Qi Guang. They came out in a hurry and did not bring many crystal cores with them. Now either Qi Guang would have a sudden outburst, or they would pray that rescue would arrive in time.
After absorbing the remaining crystal core, Qi Guang began to open up a passage above his head. Sun Cheng controlled the plant cocoon to wrap the three people and move upwards little by little. Dirt debris that was not taken care of fell from the gap. Soon, the three of them were in a mess. Zhao Gang's special ability could not help at this time, so he could only wait.
It was only eight or nine meters away, but it never reached the end. Sun Cheng could feel the oxygen in the air becoming thinner, and Qi Guang's supernatural power had been completely exhausted. He didn't make a sound, but the speed at which the soil layer was splitting was slow.
Sun Cheng, who had been chasing them all the way, had very few supernatural powers left.
When he was at a loss, Zhao Gang suddenly said, "Take good care of this cocoon."
Before Sun Cheng could respond, the temperature on his body suddenly dropped, as if a thousand-year-old ice was placed in the small space. The cold air penetrated into their bones, and the two men shivered instantly. It seemed that something pushed up the cocoon from under their bodies, and the egg-shaped plant cocoon that was originally standing upright immediately showed a tendency to be flattened.
"Brother, brother, what's going on?" Qi Guang's head had already hit the roof of the plant house, and his back continued to bend, and he felt that the space was getting smaller.
"I will condense a huge icicle to push us out, and you make sure the plants are strong enough to hold up the sphere." Zhao Gang's eyes were fierce, and it seemed like the last struggle of a trapped beast.
"Okay, success or failure depends on this one move." Sun Cheng did not waste any time and immediately reinforced the cocoon.
"Ready, three," Zhao Gang said in a low and crisp voice.
Qi Guang's entire back was leaning against the plant cocoon.
"two".
Sun Cheng solemnly placed his hands over the plants.
"one!"
A huge amount of energy overflowed from Zhao Gang, and a layer of frost immediately condensed on Qi Guang and Sun Cheng's bodies. The cold air emanating from within made Qi Guang feel that he was only one step away from freezing to death.
Sun Cheng used all of his remaining abilities on the plant, forming a sharp tip on top of its head, which slowly expanded into a shape that could accommodate three people. As the entire plant cocoon was lifted up by the huge force, the sharp tip broke through the soil and slowly rose.
The time seemed to be so long that it seemed like a whole century had passed. The only thing in Sun Cheng's mind was persistence. He even ignored whether his supernatural power was completely overdrawn. Until he saw a light in front of his eyes. The whole plant cocoon broke out of the soil and flew suddenly into the air. After flying for dozens of meters, it fell to the ground.
The weightlessness brought Sun Cheng back to his senses, and the feeling of his brain being stirred came first, making him unable to help but hold his head and huddle to one side.
Zhao Gang on the other side was not in a much better situation. Just when Qi Guang thought that they might be thrown down like this, the plants' descent speed was controlled by someone, and they finally landed slowly without any injuries.
"Who are you?--" The cocoon was opened, and a circle of people with special abilities surrounded it. In the distance, there were also many ordinary people watching the fun with curiosity.
Sun Cheng and Zhao Gang were both in bad conditions, so Qi Guang had to stand up and say, "Don't be nervous, don't be nervous. We were rescued by your Lord Mountain God a few days ago. Today our temporary residence was attacked, so we came here to chase them. If you don't believe me, you can go ask your Master Qi Le."
"Fang Tang has been with us these days. We are not bad people. Don't get excited and don't use violence, which will hurt the harmony."
The supernatural beings surrounding them looked at each other and finally shook their heads to indicate that they didn't know them.
"The team led by Fang Tang did go out to rescue people a few days ago, but... they didn't look like this."
"Yes, the master didn't take them with him. I heard that those people were busy hunting these days and went into the mountains every day."
"Why don't we just... catch him first?"
"Why arrest them? They caused the explosion and injured our villagers. They should be killed immediately and made to pay with their lives."
Although he was young, his angry words were full of innocent cruelty, which made Qi Guang tense all over.
The three of them had overdrawn their abilities at the moment. No matter what level the person in front of them was, they would probably suffer a loss. He could only explain as much as possible.
"The explosion was not caused by us. We are also victims. You can go and ask. We live in the home of Mo Tiantian, a healing psychic."
"Do you have any witnesses? Who can prove that the explosion has nothing to do with you?" The speaker was the boy who had just shouted for killing. He was a fat boy of about thirteen or fourteen years old. He was particularly conspicuous among the thin figures. His white cheeks were like a bun, and his red eyes said viciously.
"I've already told you. Just send someone to ask..."
"That must have something to do with you!"
This was so aggressive and unreasonable that Qi Guang didn't even bother to explain. He just chuckled and looked around at the several psychics surrounding them. "Are you sure it's us?"
"Then I have nothing to explain, but... does your mountain god know that you are so unreasonable? If he knew that he had given his supernatural power to someone like you who can't tell right from wrong and is unreasonable, do you think he would take it back?"
After all, they were just a few kids. When Qi Guang threatened them with the name of the Mountain God, they immediately fell silent. The little fat boy glared at them fiercely but said nothing more.
"Do you want to take action? Come on, do it," Qi Guang said with a cold face, "It's just right for your Lord Mountain God to see."
No one spoke anymore. Someone on the outskirts of the crowd shouted, "Make way." He pushed aside the onlookers and squeezed in. It was Qian Xing. Following behind him, besides Tan Yun, there was also a man as strong as a mountain tower.
"How are you? Are you injured?" Qian Xing saw the two people on the ground and immediately understood what was going on. He quickly stuffed crystal cores into their hands to replenish their superpowers, and then asked Qi Guang.
"It's a minor injury, nothing serious," Qi Guang replied, looking at the furious little fat man, and said sarcastically with a smile, "Ms. Tan, the superpowers in your Mountain God Base are quite eye-opening."
Tan Yun looked at several young psychics in confusion. The fat boy pursed his lips and refused to say a word. It was a little girl next to him who leaned close to Tan Yun and whispered something in her ear.
"I'm sorry, the explosion affected Zhou Zhou's family, and the children were a little agitated." Tan Yun took the initiative to apologize on behalf of the fat boy.
Qi Guang and the others were still at the Mountain God Base, and they didn't want to make the relationship too awkward, so they waved their hands and said, "It's good that we have resolved the misunderstanding. Let's first look at the sneak attack on us."
"Okay," Tan Yun nodded and introduced to Qi Guang the man who followed him like a mountain, "This is Sha Peng."
Despite only hearing this one sentence, Qi Guang immediately recognized the other person, Sha Peng, who, like Tan Yun and Mo Tiantian, was one of the original enlightened psychics. Although their levels do not seem to be high now, they are indeed people around the mountain god. Many psychics with higher levels than them have appeared so far, but only the three of them are still called God's messengers.
"I've heard a lot about you," Qi Guang greeted.
Without any greeting, Sha Peng asked them what exactly had happened, then took Qi Guang to the place where the explosion occurred.
The explosion affected residents' houses, causing a large area to collapse. People were buried in some houses. People with earth-related abilities were helping to move the soil to rescue people.
Qi Guang roughly told the story, and several people had already arrived at the center of the explosion.
"Have you found any intruders?" Sha Peng asked the earth-type mutant next to him.
The other person shook his head and said, "We were just rescuing people and haven't started digging yet."
"I don't think they will go too far. We can dig around here." Qi Guang pointed to the range of the explosion. He himself was not sure whether the other party could escape. After all, under the suppression of their instruments, the supernatural powers they could use were really limited.
Sha Peng nodded and ordered his men to take action. He looked at Zhao Gang and asked, "Did you offend someone? Why did they chase you here?"
There were people with special abilities in the room, but they only targeted him.
Zhao Gang shook his head and said, "I have offended many people."
“……”Qi Guang.
Why did it sound like he was showing off? He thought it might be an illusion, as Zhao Gang had always behaved calmly and experienced.
“…”Shapeng.
"However, most of them are dead, and there are probably only a few who can break in here," Zhao Gang added.
"You have had close contact with him. Have you found anything or found any clues?" Sha Peng continued to ask.
"I seemed to have been poisoned. I felt weak all over, without any strength, and couldn't use my supernatural powers."
"No wonder we all noticed you struggling," Qi Guangxin sneered, "We have to check what the other party is using. This thing is a bit dangerous."
Zhao Gang glanced at Qi Guang, and the strange look made Qi Guang confused.
"Any other findings?"
Zhao Gang shook his head, "I had just had surgery, and I was dizzy and nauseous due to blood loss and the fact that I moved too quickly. I didn't notice anything else. I only know that one of them is an earth-type mutant, and I'm not sure about the other one."
"They are all men with masks on their faces, so it is impossible to recognize who they are, but their superpowers are quite strong."
"The Earth Element must be at S level. I'm at the top of A level, so it's a bit difficult for me to fight against him," Qi Guang added.
"God's messenger, we have discovered something here," the earth-type mutant shouted.
Qi Guang immediately followed Sha Peng and saw that a few meters away from the center of the explosion, the soil was mixed with blood and appeared a dark red color. Broken flesh and bones were mixed in it. Once they were dug out, the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
It's hard to tell who it is from this perspective.
Qi Guang was feeling regretful when he heard someone shouting again, "Come quickly, there is someone here."
