The scarred man's expression changed drastically. He had run into a group of tough opponents. Were superpowers so common now? None of the people he had passed by before had superpowers, and he was the only one among his brothers who had awakened a superpower. Now, he saw four or five superpowered individuals.
He roared, "Retreat! Retreat!"
The machine gun in his hand was stolen when he escaped from prison, and he fired it forward with a series of "thuds".
Unfortunately, he encountered Jiang Lecheng. She held her breath, her hands outstretched. It was the first time she had ever caught a bullet with both hands like that. She was quite scared and turned her head slightly to the side with her eyes closed.
The bullet stopped five centimeters away from her palm, which was covered in melted bullet liquid, more effective than flames.
Seeing this, Jiang Lecheng's confidence soared. She even demonstrated what it meant to block bullets with both hands. All the bullets she blocked melted into liquid and dripped to the ground.
The scarred man's eyes widened instantly. What kind of superpower was this? It could even melt bullets!
Seeing that his brothers had all sacrificed themselves, he threw down his gun, took off running without saying a word, and summoned a gust of wind beneath his feet to speed up.
However, in the instant he turned to run away, a bullet pierced his forehead, the wind beneath his feet dissipated, and with a 'thud,' his entire body fell to the ground.
The buzzing sound of helicopters flying overhead could be heard, and several helicopters came into view.
Ye Shang squinted and looked in that direction.
After dealing with the robbers, everyone looked over there.
A group of young men in military uniforms appeared. The young man at the front, who had shot and killed the scarred man, calmly put away his gun. He was not wearing a uniform like the rest of the group.
As the helicopter descended, a large number of people emerged from it, a flurry of activity, nearly a hundred in total.
Ye Shang frowned slightly; with so many people, it might not be easy to kill them all.
Zhang Yiyang carefully pushed Chen Zui behind him, a hint of hostility in his eyes, unsure of what kind of people this group was.
A woman in military uniform came out with a warm smile on her face: "Someone reported that a group of burly men were arson, murder, and looting here. Are you just passing by?"
She didn't even look at the group of people lying on the ground, and just asked them these questions.
Xie Qingye stepped forward, a smile on his face: "That's right. We just arrived here. If it weren't for the abilities of our companions, we might have already turned into their forms."
The woman stepped forward, extended her hand, and said, "My name is Zhuo Xia. It's nice to meet you. We are from the First Base of the Army in City A."
Xie Qingye smiled faintly, extended his hand, shook it briefly, and then released it: "Xie Qingye."
Without introducing the others, Zhuo Xia raised an eyebrow slightly but didn't ask, "Judging from your appearance, you all seem to be superhumans. Our First Base warmly welcomes you."
Xie Qingye's mind raced. Was this an active recruitment? Then, would this base have any special measures for people with superpowers? "We can go and take a look."
Zhuo Xia was not surprised that she did not agree directly. A young man in military uniform ran up to her and said, "Deputy Captain, we have found the imprisoned woman and the supplies. They have all been moved."
"Okay, tell the captain to free up a helicopter. I have a few people to take back to base," Zhuo Xia said succinctly.
The young man in the long trench coat stepped forward and asked, "Are all of these people to be taken back to base?"
His gaze made Ye Shang very uncomfortable, as if he were being scrutinized and appraised.
"Yes, I think they are all very good," Zhuo Xia said gently.
The man in the trench coat frowned, glanced at the people behind them, and pointed: "She, him, him, those people don't need to be taken back."
Coincidentally, his finger first pointed at Ye Shang, then at Xie Qingyuan and Grandpa Chen.
Zhuo Xia frowned slightly, seemingly aware of his special ability: "Since we've already brought back all the women and supplies, it wouldn't hurt to bring a couple more, would it?"
"Whatever you want," the man in the trench coat said, then turned and walked back, boarding the helicopter.
The man who had just gone to report to the captain returned with his gun and said, "Vice Captain, the captain said there isn't an empty gun available, nor are there that many extra empty slots."
They were out to rescue supplies according to orders from above. The women were just incidental. Besides, there were seven more seats available, and there simply weren't enough, especially since there weren't that many helicopters available at the moment.
Ye Shang, carrying the Light Shadow Sword, glanced at them and said to Xie Qingyuan and the others, "Get in the car and let's go."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Zhang Yiyang picked up Chen Zui and turned around, saying, "Let's go."
Xie Qingyuan also got into the driver's seat with light steps, it seems he won't be resting here tonight.
Zhu Caining and the others shrugged and turned around; they had obviously heard what the person in front of them had said.
Seeing that they got into the car without waiting for him, Xie Qingye could only turn around and smile helplessly, "Sorry, Deputy Captain Zhuo, our boss said that we'll meet again sometime."
Xie Qingye turned and ran into the car. After getting in and closing the door, he gave Zhuo Xia a polite smile.
Xie Qingyuan started the car and asked, "Brother, what's the deal with that guy in the trench coat?"
