Shen Jing had just recovered some of her mental strength.
After consuming her luck points to exchange for energy for Gu Yan in a life-risking manner, her mental strength will also be consumed.
Just now, I only used my supernatural ability to control passersby to dodge, but it actually caused Shen Jing's mental strength to drop to its lowest point.
I had no problem controlling the same number of zombies before!
Drinking the spiritual spring water restores one's mental strength.
At the same time, she also had to be wary of the "superpowered person" who possessed the mutated vine.
No crystal core was detected on him, meaning he is not a superhuman.
All mutated or evolved plants, animals, and humans will have crystal nuclei.
Unless... like Gu Yan, a human who took evolutionary agents in a laboratory.
Gu Yan, due to the contamination from the evolution agent, suffered from the backlash for many years.
Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that this so-called "superpowered person" was also artificially "evolved" in a laboratory.
Shen Jing stood wearily to one side.
She glanced at the indifferent Gu Yan out of the corner of her eye.
The tenderness that Shen Jing was familiar with was no longer on his face.
His pure white research institute uniform made his skin appear even whiter and more translucent.
Her already delicate features now exuded an air of asceticism.
Gu Yan simply stood behind Li Miao, watching coldly, without any intention of coming forward.
Seeing the chaotic scene, Li Miao said, "Let's take this superhuman to the rest room first."
She only came after receiving a report from her subordinates, and she never expected that the legendary "superpowered person" was real...
Before anyone else could react, Shen Jing suddenly spoke up: "He's not a superhuman."
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Gu Yan look up at her.
Shen Jing's heart suddenly tightened. From the moment he arrived in the hall until now, he had been completely ignoring her.
This was the first time he had looked directly at her, but only for a moment, before he casually looked away.
Even if Shen Jing is slow to understand matters of the heart.
She could also tell that when Gu Yan looked at her, there was no longer intense love, only indifference and detachment.
What exactly is wrong?
Shen Jing's heart suddenly felt empty, and her eyes dimmed.
"Who are you! Do you even have a place to speak here?!"
"Hmph! She's probably a thief who came to the research institute to steal water..." The so-called superhuman was named Zhang Bofan, his eyes still fixed on the water in Shen Jing's hand. "Otherwise, what would she be doing here? And she said I'm not a superhuman! Are you one?!"
"Oh, so he was a thief. No wonder."
The researcher next to Li Miao also looked Shen Jing up and down. She looked familiar, and he couldn't help but glance at Gu Yan.
But seeing that Gu Yan didn't react, he said curtly, "Please put the water down and leave!"
"Wang Bo, are you serious? You're just going to let her go like that?"
Zhang Bofan had no intention of letting Shen Jing go. "If you don't detain her, I will not continue to cooperate with the lab!"
It turns out he came to the lab voluntarily to cooperate with them in their research on people with superpowers.
As a result, he ran into Shen Jing as soon as he arrived to demonstrate his superpowers.
This is a case of a fake superhuman meeting the real deal, a fake superhuman encountering Shen Jing, a genuine superhuman.
He was exposed as a fraud on the spot, and then became furious!
Shen Jing kept her eyes fixed on Gu Yan, and when she realized that he was really ignoring her, she prepared to forcefully use her supernatural ability to detect him.
She needed to figure out what was wrong with Gu Yan.
Just a moment ago he was clinging to her fiercely in the RV, why is he being so cold now?
However, the depletion of her superpowers and mental energy almost caused her to faint!
"call!"
Shen Jing took a deep breath and looked up at Gu Yan again, only to find that he was just listening to Li Miao speak.
Gu Yan didn't notice Shen Jing's condition at all.
But every time she was weak before, it was he who touched her forehead with his fingertips to heal her...
Seeing her sudden weakness, Zhang Bofan sneered and lashed out with the mutated vine in his hand. The vine was aimed directly at Shen Jing's neck; he intended to cruelly strangle her!
Shen Jing instinctively raised her hand and grabbed the vine.
She instinctively wanted to activate her lightning-based superpower, but then stopped herself, remembering the researcher's unclear stance.
Now she was being dragged to the ground by a vine, Shen Jing bracing herself on the floor with one hand, pulling and tugging at Zhang Bofan. The vulnerability and dependence she had shown when looking at Gu Yan just moments before had vanished completely; now she only felt murderous intent towards this fake superhuman!
"You're asking for it!" Zhang Bofan realized he was at a disadvantage and, his face flushed, wanted to get back at them.
His mutated vine can even grow sharp thorns!
Shen Jing's hand quickly began to bleed.
She sensed the recovery status of her psychic abilities, pursed her lips, and forcibly activated her ability detection again. During the few seconds that Zhang Bofan was briefly subdued, Shen Jing quickly took out a stun gun from her backpack.
"Sizzle!" The lethal dose was activated immediately!
"Who sent you?" Shen Jing asked coldly.
She hadn't expected him to be able to answer; Shen Jing was just using the question to evoke his memory.
If Zhang Bofan remembered the answer to the question before he died, then she would be able to detect it.
It really is the evolution agent from the Viper Lab!
Like Gu Yan, he too was mutated by the evolution agent. However, Zhang Bofan willingly accepted the evolution agent offered by Gu Chen, while Gu Yan was forced to endure years of abuse from his brother.
Gu Chen is Gu Yan's older brother.
Zhang Bofan was sent by him to deal with Gu Yan...
Shen Jing covered her forehead, which was throbbing with pain, her face pale. Could Gu Yan's strange behavior be related to Gu Chen?
