At this moment, Xiao Lin turned to look at Hai Dong and Ling Feng, his sharp eyes filled with warning. Hai Dong and Ling Feng, who were watching the show, instantly cowered when they saw the murderous look Xiao Lin gave them. They scrambled away, afraid that if they stayed even a second longer, Xiao Lin would drag them away and teach them a lesson.
After the two ran away, they looked at each other in confusion. Ling Feng suddenly realized something was wrong. "Wait a minute! Where did my sister-in-law's knife come from?"
Upon hearing this, Haidong realized, "Oh right! It's like my sister-in-law's knife appeared out of thin air!"
The two looked at each other and were shocked. Hai Dong had mutated to the lightning attribute, while Ling Feng had the fire attribute. The two thought their skills had mutated to be incredibly powerful, but they never expected Xia He to be able to perform magic tricks out of thin air!
Hai Dong said, "I suddenly understand why the eldest brother is so afraid of his sister-in-law!"
Ling Feng nodded in agreement.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Xia He and Xiao Lin were in an eerie silence after what had just happened. This silence lasted until they entered Xiao Lin's office. Once inside, Xiao Lin finally couldn't hold back any longer and said, "Um, Xia He, I didn't mean to just now."
Xia He remained silent. Xiao Lin cleared his throat strategically and said, "Well, the mutations in the base so far include lightning, fire, earth, and water types. We haven't found any space-type mutations yet. They can't cultivate spiritual power either; it seems they only possess skills. However, the skills they mutated are equivalent to the second tier of our spiritual practitioners."
Furthermore, the air is currently filled with spiritual energy; you can feel it, right?
Xia He nodded, and said irritably, "Yeah, I know."
Then an eerie silence filled the air again. Xia He spoke up, "So, what should we do now?"
"As mentioned in the previous meeting, I am a mental type and you are an offensive type. We will not change this statement for the time being. However, we will no longer need to hide our abilities. Also, we may frequently go out to fight mutated animals. I have already sent mutants out to scout the situation. The specific situation should be available this afternoon. I will organize the mutant teams."
If possible, would you like to join the team? It would make future missions easier.
Xia He nodded, "That's no problem. We'll have to face mutated animals sooner or later anyway, and we still have to save the world, right?"
"However, I have one condition: I have to take my two dogs with me when I go out."
Xiao Lin nodded. "That's no problem, as long as you can go!"
Seeing Xiao Lin's smug look, Xia He said irritably, "I'm warning you, don't do anything weird to my dog! Otherwise, you'll regret it!"
Xiao Lin looked at Xia He, a look of melancholy appearing on his handsome face. "Xia He, after all this time, am I really not even as important as your dog in your heart?"
Xia He laughed in exasperation, "You? You think you can compare to my dog?"
A crack seemed to appear on Xiao Lin's handsome face, his whole being filled with the words "I'm cracked, I don't believe it."
However, Xia He had no time to care about Xiao Lin's feelings, and only told him, "Just let me know when you're on a mission, and don't bother me otherwise. I need to focus on my cultivation."
After saying that, she left Xiao Lin's office without looking back. As Xiao Lin watched Xia He's departing figure, the oppressive atmosphere around him intensified, and he was filled with sadness and loneliness.
