iron sheet
Zhu Liang was pushed away by Lin Bai's palm. He looked up in surprise, only to see the shaking Lin Bai being caught by Lou Tiannan.
Lou Tiannan did not expect that Lin Bai would push Zhu Liang away. Seeing that Lin Bai was about to stagger and fall, he quickly reached out and grabbed Lin Bai's wrist.
The moment his fingers touched the skin of her wrist, he was stunned for half a second.
Her hands are so cold.
It's too cold to feel like a living person's hand.
Seeing Lin Bai falling backwards, Lou Tiannan bent his knees slightly, took a step forward, and held him up steadily.
She is so light.
Too light to be a normal person's weight.
Lin Bai's left wrist was grabbed by his left hand, and Lin Bai's head leaned on his shoulder due to inertia. Lin Bai was almost completely held in his arms.
Lin Bai's head was dizzy and her vision was blurry. The high heat from her back and arms was absorbed by her very quickly.
The rapid replenishment of energy gradually made her mind clear.
The moment her vision cleared up again, she quickly pulled away from the feverish embrace that was supporting her from behind.
Lou Tiannan felt his arms go empty, and the cold wrist was pulled away from his fingertips, and his fingers unconsciously clenched.
Lin Bai leaned his head against the wall, his whole body exuding an aura of "keep away from strangers".
Zhu Liang and others looked at each other, wondering what was wrong with Lin Bai.
"Are you okay?" Wen Xia Xia asked softly.
Lin Bai closed his eyes and couldn't open his mouth.
Long ago, when she had just awakened in this body and was extremely short of energy, this feeling would often occur. Later, with the long period of scorching sun, her energy was sufficient and she had complete control over her body. For a long time, she did not have this feeling again, until today...
It was indeed excessive energy consumption, she knew, she was careless.
"Mom!" Xiya ran over and looked at her worriedly.
Lin Bai supported Xiya's shoulders and paused for a few seconds before speaking: "It's okay, it's just low blood sugar."
After saying this, she didn't care whether others believed it or not, and slowly walked to the corner and sat down.
Even though she was sitting there alone, no one dared to provoke her.
Xiya looked at Lin Bai and remembered something. She said to Lin Bai who was sitting there, "Mom, I think my ability has become stronger again. Let me show you!"
As she spoke, flames appeared in her hands and she raised them in front of Lin Bai, like a child asking for praise: "See, isn't it?!"
The orange-red flames reflected on Lin Bai's expressionless face.
Compared to the small flames from a few days ago, the flames have indeed grown stronger.
The scorching light and heat were absorbed by Lin Bai bit by bit.
It is far inferior to Lou Tiannan's black flame, but it is better than nothing.
To outsiders, Xiya looked like a child teasing her mother. She transformed the fire powers she had learned and showed them to Lin Bai. The survivors without powers looked at her with envy.
"You've learned well." Lin Bai said calmly.
Xiya immediately showed a happy smile and repeatedly assured Lin Bai: "Mom, I will definitely become very strong!"
Lou Tiannan looked at Lin Bai sitting in the corner from afar, and always felt that something was wrong.
Someone sat down next to me, it was Wen Xia Xia.
Wen Xiaxia whispered, "Captain Lou, Li Fan's injury is under control and his leg is saved."
"The surgery performed by Lin Bai?"
"Yes, her technique is very professional. She's definitely not an ordinary doctor." Wen Xia Xia thought for a moment and added, "She doesn't look like an ordinary person either."
Not like an average person.
"Yeah." Lou Tiannan thought about this sentence over and over again, and responded without comment when he heard Wen Xia Xia's words.
"Team Leader Lou." Wen Xia Xia suddenly called out.
Lou Tiannan: “?”
"Have you noticed that after using your supernatural powers the last few times, your body temperature dropped faster than before. Are you about to break through?" Wen Xia Xia's tone was a little excited.
As the team's medical soldier, Wen Xia Xia has a certain understanding of everyone's physical condition, especially Captain Lou, whose body temperature rises abnormally every time he uses his superpowers.
She had done special statistics. Every time Captain Lou used his superpower, his body would remain hot for about an hour. If the superpower was overused, this time would be extended accordingly. Today, Captain Lou obviously overused his superpower, but the temperature around him dropped within an hour.
When Lou Tiannan heard Wen Xia Xia's question, he stretched out his left palm. The empty palm seemed to still retain the touch of that cold and slender wrist.
She is indeed not like an ordinary person, even... not like a human.
"Captain Lou?" Wen Xia Xia called him again curiously without waiting for an answer.
"There's something wrong with her." Lou Tiannan frowned, his eyes deep.
"Something's wrong? Who's wrong?" Wen Xia Xia didn't understand what Lou Tiannan said for a moment.
But Lou Tiannan suddenly stood up, took big steps and walked straight towards Lin Bai.
Lin Bai still maintained the same posture as at the beginning, sitting on the ground with his eyes closed and his knees bent, his hands on his knees, looking like he was resting.
There were footsteps approaching her, and then her wrist tightened, and an external force pulled her up.
Some people around exclaimed in surprise.
Lin Bai's right wrist was held by Lou Tiannan, and his left hand was holding the black blade, and the tip of the black blade was against Lou Tiannan's solar plexus. The atmosphere between the two of them instantly became extremely tense.
She looked listless and listless, but the emotion in her eyes was completely different. "Captain Lou, what are you going to do?"
Lou Tiannan moved his thumb lightly, his fingertips brushing against the cool skin of his wrist. He frowned, feeling something different...
Different from just now!
Her body temperature was still a little cold, but it was a warm cold. Was the bone-chilling coldness just now just his illusion?
And the weight I felt when I pulled her up just now was normal.
"Captain Lou, are you..." Lin Bai paused, looked up at him slightly, and said word by word: "Molesting military relatives?"
Lin Bai's voice was loud and the people around could hear it clearly. The survivors covered their ears with one hand and held the other ear high, moving away at a snail's pace to create distance between them and the two men.
Lou Tiannan stared at her with a murderous look in his gray eyes, his palm open, and Lin Bai's wrist was freed from its restraint and fell to his side.
"Checking your physical condition," he replied.
"Thank you for your concern. I feel I'm okay now." Lin Bai said as he put the black blade in his other hand back into the scabbard on the side of his leg and sat down on the ground again.
The atmosphere seemed to relax again.
This seems to be just a misunderstanding.
Lou Tiannan lowered his eyes and stared at her for a few seconds, then turned and left.
In a corner where no one noticed, Lin Bai curled the corners of his mouth and slowly adjusted the temperature control system in his body back to power saving mode.
It’s really annoying. I don’t have enough energy to begin with. I have to think of a way.
Lin Bai frowned, thinking about charging in her mind. She quickly remembered the iron piece pulled from the wounded soldier's leg in the sentry box, and came up with an idea.
Lou Tiannan's behavior just now attracted a lot of attention. Song Yan whispered, "Captain Lou, I've been keeping an eye on her and haven't seen any abnormal behavior from her."
Lou Tiannan also knew that there was nothing abnormal about her during the past few days they had been together, but when he thought about it carefully, there was something wrong with her in every way.
She is proficient in using swords, guns, sticks and clubs, but her methods are varied. She is ruthless to those who are vulnerable, and her skills are those of ruthless thugs who can kill with one blow. However, when she guides Xiya's training, one can vaguely see that the standards are only followed in the army.
She also has professional medical knowledge and amazing acuity. However, the moment she became weak, he was sure that her body temperature was abnormally low. Although her body temperature was not right, her words and actions were no different from those of ordinary people.
Also, what does she need a level three crystal core for?
Lou Tiannan had just carefully examined her pupils and nails, and there was no sign of abnormality.
Who is she?
Lou Tiannan had doubts in his mind again. He closed his eyes and opened them again. All the doubts and guesses in his eyes were suppressed. He believed that he would get the answer after reaching the safe zone.
After a short adjustment and rest, the team set off again.
The road conditions in West District 1 are complicated, with the wreckage of various vehicles and aircraft parked all over the road, and the frequency of zombie appearances has increased significantly.
Fortunately, they are all low-level zombies and it is not difficult to deal with them.
In order to prevent the gunshots from attracting more zombies, Zhou Yu used his supernatural powers to kill the zombies silently in the early stages.
Lu Jia's ability is not as proficient as Zhou Yu's, and the attack power of the wood-based ability is not as good as the metal-based ability. He can only help Zhou Yu provide cover.
But as the number of zombies increased, Zhou Yu could no longer bear it.
Others also helped Zhou Yu fight the zombies with silenced pistols, but it was a drop in the bucket.
The federal army convoy in action was like a piece of meat hanging on a string, attracting the surrounding zombies to rush over following the scent.
The road conditions became increasingly complicated, making it difficult for the convoy to move forward. Zombies continued to pour in from all directions, and even if Lou Tiannan took action, he could only delay the progress for a short while.
"We can't move forward!" Zhu Liang, who was driving, frowned. From his perspective, he could already see the zombie heads swarming in front of him, and in order to avoid the nearby zombies, the car was shaking up and down violently.
"Damn it! Why are there so many zombies?!" Zhou Yu cursed as he watched the white-eyed zombie heads appearing one after another on the street.
When they entered West District 1, they were prepared that there would be a lot of zombies in West District 1, but they never expected that there would be so many zombies on the road they carefully considered.
His forehead was covered with sweat, and his arms swung like shadowless hands, driving sharp metal nails into the back of the zombies' heads.
Lou Tiannan also felt something was amiss. He jumped onto the roof of the car, quickly glanced around, and said to Zhu Liang, "Notify everyone down there and get ready to get off the car. They'll get off in a minute and cover the survivors as they make their way to the Yunhuan Toy Store ahead."
Zhu Liang quickly conveyed Lou Tiannan's notice through the car's radio.
After receiving replies from the two cars behind him, he swerved the steering wheel and stepped on the brakes before reaching the toy store.
Lou Tiannan stood on the roof of the car and pushed out two long fire dragons from his palms, clearing a path for the transport truck behind.
Led by Song Yan, the survivors ran into the toy store nervously and hurriedly.
Xiya voluntarily stayed behind to help cover their retreat, while Lin Bai walked at the end of the group of survivors into the toy store. Before entering, she flicked her fingers lightly, and a shadow flashed by. The iron piece between her fingertips was immediately swallowed by the black flames before it even hit the ground. The bloody iron piece completely disappeared in the flames.
