Chapter 293: Something Happened to the Zheng Family
Zhuang Mingxu didn't understand this.
Seeing that he looked a little dejected, Lu Weiyi tugged at the corner of his clothes in confusion and looked at him in doubt.
"Are you sure? Like this..." It sounds a little unreliable.
Zhuang Mingxu is not a person without a spirit of exploration. If it were him, he would not think there was anything wrong, but if it were Lu Weiyi, he would hope that he could enjoy the achievements of his predecessors in peace and live a stable and good life.
He hoped that he could live in a glass greenhouse, stretching gracefully and basking in the sun without being harmed by the wind and sun.
Lu Weiyi nodded, "Yes."
He had never done this in his previous life, but Zhuang Mingxu had done it and even described to him the operation method at that time.
It should be.
That's ok.
…
It didn't take long for Lu Xiao to hear about Lu Weiyi's situation. He and Zhuang Mingxu reached an agreement not to let Lu Weiyi participate in the following matters.
Zhao Qiang sent someone to deliver the message at noon that day that he would stand with Lu Xiao.
In the afternoon, the news that Zhao Qiang was blatantly interacting with Lu Xiao's people had spread throughout the base.
Before Zheng Yi could struggle, a large-scale attack by mutant rats broke out within the Zheng family's sphere of influence that night.
Because it was night time, everyone was resting and their guard was lowered, resulting in countless injuries around them.
Zheng Yi personally led the team to deal with the situation, and Lu Xiao and Zhao Qiang and others who lived nearby were all mobilized.
During this period, many people were bitten by the mutant rats. Until dawn, the mutant rat king was killed by several psychics led by Zheng Yi, and this unexpected disaster finally ended.
However, Zheng Yi and others were injured for unknown reasons and showed symptoms such as loss of superpowers and general weakness.
When the morning light was bright, Lu Xiao returned to the villa exhausted.
Zhuang Mingxu stayed up all night. Fireworks flickered on the steps in front of the villa entrance all night long, and in the early morning there was a pile of cigarette butts on the ground.
Seeing someone coming back, he looked over silently.
Lu Xiao nodded, and Zhuang Mingxu breathed a sigh of relief imperceptibly.
"Are the casualties serious?" Zhuang Mingxu asked.
"The statistics haven't been calculated yet. Please ask your team's healing psychics to help treat the wounded," said Lu Xiao.
"Okay," Zhuang Mingxu responded readily. The team members didn't know what had happened, but they could vaguely smell the smoke from downstairs all night and someone's breathing, which made everyone know what was going on.
After giving some instructions to Xu Yi and Dean, the two followed Lu Xiao to help.
The area around the World Trade Center is no longer as lively as it was a few days ago. It is filled with buildings destroyed by psychics and injured people.
Everyone supported each other and lined up in front of several doctors who came to support them. The first few had wounds all over their bodies from being bitten, and their groans were incessant.
In addition to the two healing psychics brought by Lu Xiao, he also spent money to bring over all the psychics he could hire from the Hunter's Guild.
When the two of them came over, the people over there had not arrived yet.
Lu Xiao turned his eyes around and looked at his men. He nodded slightly and asked loudly, "Where are the healing psychics under the Zheng family? How can they only send doctors to help at a time like this?"
The doctor sent by the Zheng family didn't say anything.
"Several of their captains are injured, so call all the healing psychics over," someone suddenly replied.
"People from our side please leave as well," Meng Guang suddenly said.
"Even if the captain is injured, you can't take away all the healers. The captain's life is life, but our lives are not lives?" Someone said in a crying voice.
"That's right. There are so many injured people here. There is a lack of medical care and medicine. If we only rely on supplies, won't that kill people?"
The crowd started to whisper, and after someone raised questions, some stopped controlling the noise.
"Our captain has been at the forefront. If it weren't for these superpowers protecting you, how could you have survived the attack of the mutant rats?"
Some people in the Zheng family team heard the voices of people around them and shouted and questioned unhappily.
"This is the Zheng family's sphere of influence. We paid for living here, and you promised to protect our safety."
"That's right. Every month when you collect supplies, you always talk about how safe your sphere of influence is and how many healing psychics you have. Now that something has happened, you take all the healing psychics away? What's the logic behind this?"
“Yes, return our supplies.”
"Didn't we protect you? Didn't we, the Psychics, come here to fight off the mutant rats last night?"
"It's not just you. The guards are here too, and Major General Lu is here too."
"The people from the Queen of Flowers have also arrived."
"People from the Wolf Squad are here too."
…
"All the teams at the base are there, and we didn't see them taking the healing psychic away."
"That's right, is your captain superior to others?"
The cacophony of voices made the Zheng family who stayed behind to help extremely angry, but speechless.
"The mutant rat king was killed by Captain Zheng and his men. Everyone, please be patient. He may have just been seriously injured. He doesn't mean to ignore the lives of the people." Lu Xiao stepped forward and acted like a good guy.
"Those are mutant rats raised in their own warehouses."
As soon as someone who knew the situation said this, there was an uproar around and it immediately caused a wave of inquiries. After a few breaths of rumors, it turned out that the Zheng family deliberately raised mutant rats.
Lu Xiao couldn't help but sigh after hearing this, saying that people's words are scary.
"Major General Lu, where did you invite this healing psychic from?" Amid the noise, someone brought the topic back to the topic.
"Our captain has spent money to invite all the healers from the Hunter's Guild to come here. Anyone who needs treatment can come this way."
As they were talking, six healing psychics arrived, and other psychics surrounded them to protect their safety.
Lu Xiao asked people to move stools to a flat surface, with two stools per person at a table, forming a temporary treatment table.
"This is a team composed of healing psychics. If you need treatment, go there on your own. Those who are seriously injured should line up at the front. Everyone will have a chance to receive treatment. Don't fight for it." Someone under Lu Xiao began to maintain order.
Not far from the healing psychic, someone was carrying a big pot to cook a bowl of stew and a few steamed buns. Anyone who was injured could come and get a day's worth of food.
There was a big red banner behind him with big black letters saying "Flame Squad".
Clearly identify the people who do these things.
"Flame Team? Never heard of this team? Are you newly formed?" There were not only people from the Zheng family nearby, but also some people who were implicated by the mutant rats for no reason. Seeing the name of this team that suddenly appeared, they couldn't help but ask a few questions.
"No, we were originally on the military side. The people above were afraid of our captain's ability, so they captured his son for human experiments. After our captain rescued his son, he reorganized the Flame Squad."
"Is that the captain that was mentioned a few days ago? Your captain is so unlucky."
"Yes, so when looking for a captain, we need to find someone who can take care of his family. If you want to find a team of superpowers, you can come to our Lieyan. Lieyan sincerely recruits ordinary people with superpowers. Everyone is welcome to become one of us."
With both publicity and distance themselves from the dealer, the newly formed Flame was completely separated from the dealer's people. In addition, a group of healing psychics came here under the banner of the Flame Team, and with free meals, the Flame Team gained a wave of goodwill as soon as it was established.
And the Zheng family residence at this time.
Zheng Yi and several of his men were lying on the bed, like stiff puppets, unable to even turn their heads.
The room, which is about 100 square meters, is filled with densely packed medical instruments. Several people in white coats are constantly fiddling with the instruments, and there are also healing psychics standing not far away, waiting to come forward at any time.
At this time, their supernatural powers had disappeared and they were so weak that they could not feel their limbs at all.
We've gone through several rounds of examinations, and even healing psychics have performed several rounds of treatment, but no cause has been found.
"Still no result?" Zheng Yi looked determined as he stared at the ceiling, without any emotion fluctuations.
The doctor beside him shook his head.
"Is it the plague? I heard that it is easy to get the plague after being bitten by a rat," asked a subordinate standing near the door.
"The symptoms of plague..." The doctor said halfway and thought for a moment, "The symptoms are not similar, but now the mice have mutated, so it is not impossible for some unexpected symptoms to appear."
"What about the other people who were bitten? Have they recovered?" asked a man next to Zheng Yi.
"The injured have been cured by the healing psychic, and no other problems were found." The person reporting the situation had just finished speaking when he saw Zheng Yi looking at him. Because he couldn't move his head, it looked like he was squinting at him.
"Where did the healing psychic come from?"
"It was Lu Xiao. He formed a Flame Squad. Not only did he bring the only two healing psychics in the team over, he also invited the healing system hidden in the Hunter's Guild over. It was said that he spent a lot of supplies."
The man said with an angry look on his face, "They gave food for free to the injured people, and those people were so grateful to them."
It felt like they were the ones who were at the forefront, but others took all the glory.
"Major," someone shouted from the corner, "Do you think it could be Lu Xiao's doing?"
"After all, if we were really bitten, it's impossible that we are the only ones bitten by the mutant rat king."
“Yes, I didn’t think I was bitten.”
Zheng Yi has gold-related abilities, so it is difficult for attacks to break through his defense under normal circumstances. He himself did not feel that he was bitten by the mutant rat, and at most he was scratched a few times. Is it that serious?
As for saying it was Lu Xiao's plan...
"Didn't the only team member wander around the World Trade Center a few days ago? I don't believe he just wanted to buy some snacks."
Someone else spoke up to corroborate the story.
"We have no evidence to prove that it was Lu Xiao who did it," Zheng Yi said.
"Then we..."
The man stopped talking halfway, and all the psychics who followed Zheng Yi in the Zheng family's team were hit.
