Chapter 34 Chapter 34 "Come and save your people."
Ye Mian covered his ears and stepped back slightly, then realized something was wrong.
Rather than a simple scream, it was more like a mad howl.
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard a strange "click" sound, and Ye Mian couldn't help but look over.
The intermediate mutant twisted off the arm that Lu Ning was holding tightly, and kicked her hard with its remaining legs. It broke free from control in an instant and returned to the ceiling, trying to delay time to recover its severed limbs.
But Lu Ning had already started to take action, so she naturally would not give it this opportunity. She jumped directly onto the table without even taking a breath. Then the long sword in her hand turned into a long stick. She supported herself on the table in front of her and sent her body to the front of the intermediate mutant.
She was too fast and used the weapon she had just switched. The monster almost subconsciously wanted to stay away from her, but before it could move, the long stick hit its shriveled body with a "bang".
“Waaaaaa——”
This time it was a real scream, and it was still weird and sharp. The already shaky windows on the wall were completely shattered and fell all over the floor.
Lu Ning was completely unaffected. After falling to the ground with a thud, the weapon in his hand turned into a long sword again. When the intermediate mutant fell down, he cut off its other limbs neatly, and then stabbed it in the neck with another sword.
Good for finishing off.
Ye Mian used his skills to confirm, and after seeing that the intermediate mutant did not pose any threat at all, he flashed to Lu Ning's side.
"He should be dead."
Hearing her words, Lu Ning felt as if he had been relieved of a heavy responsibility. His hands loosened and he fell to the ground.
Then the pain finally came. Lu Ning held his left shoulder with his hand and took a breath of cold air: "Hiss..."
That kick just now must have broken at least several of her bones.
"Use this to make up for it."
Seeing the fiery red and golden corn pizza handed to him by Ye Mian, Lu Ning was stunned for a moment, and then subconsciously wanted to refuse: "No, after becoming an evolver, the injury will recover quickly..."
“Take it.” Ye Mian forced it into her hands, then looked towards the system warehouse, where he had just successfully picked up the rhenium crystals that were more transparent and pure in color and texture.
Probably because it is a little older, this piece is bigger than the previous one and its shape is more irregular. Looking at it, it gives people the feeling that this is definitely not an ordinary crystal.
I don’t know what will come out of the bodies of higher-level mutants.
While Ye Mian was thinking, Lu Ning had already eaten the corn pizza helplessly. Then she touched her full stomach and felt even more helpless.
She ate and drank all the way, and those who knew her thought she was there to recover from the battle, while those who didn't thought she was here for a spring picnic.
Ye Mian put away the small dish and closed the system interface: "How do you feel?"
"Much better now," Lu Ning moved his left half of his body, "It's no problem to continue fighting, and there's also..."
"Um?"
Lu Ning's expression was a little subtle: "When I sat down just now, I vaguely felt that my body's potential had been raised to a new level, just like I had stepped onto a new step."
Ye Mian raised his eyebrows slightly. It turned out that after the skills were upgraded, the accumulated experience would have more concrete manifestations?
However, this will give people endless desires, rather than just wanting to survive.
Reaching out to pull Lu Ning, Ye Mian gestured to the upstairs: "Let's go up and take a look."
They were fighting the intermediate mutants downstairs. The various bangs and screams that could penetrate the roof had naturally alarmed the survivors hiding on the fourth floor.
When the two of them walked up half of the stairs and stopped at the corner, they saw a figure looking down from behind the fire wall.
“Who are you!?”
Ye Mian responded: "Come and save your people."
"?" The other party seemed a little unconvinced, "Just the two of you?"
"The main force is over at the factory and will soon join us," Ye Mian said, then paused and continued, "If you don't need rescue, we'll leave."
"Wait, let's put out the fire!"
Hearing this, Ye Mian and Lu Ning retreated first. After the people upstairs used fire extinguishers to put out the raging fire wall bit by bit, they went up to the fourth floor one after another.
——We didn’t walk at all.
Seeing two figures suddenly appear in front of them, the man who asked the question just now, as well as several men and women who came to help put out the fire, were all stunned for a moment, and then subconsciously gathered together, looking alert and cautious.
Why are you so panicked? And judging from their skills, they all have some combat power.
Ye Mian was a little puzzled: "We are still very different from those mutants."
The few people who were at least four or five meters away from the two of them were able to see their appearance clearly. They felt relieved but also a little surprised.
There are actually two girls?
How did the two of them fight their way up from downstairs?
“I’m sorry,” the man who asked the question stood up again, “We’ve only seen those strange people coming and going freely like this, we didn’t know you could do it too.”
Ye Mian was startled for a moment, then he understood.
Ever since the large-scale mutation, they have been trapped in the industrial park. They have never seen anyone from the outside world and are unaware that the outside world has already divided the two camps into mutants and evolvers.
"Are you just a few?" Ye Mian calmly walked around the few people and walked inside. The distance displayed above his head also decreased.
Seeing that they really didn't look like bad people, the man breathed a sigh of relief: "No, there are a few more people hiding in the kitchen at the back. I'll go call them out!"
As soon as he moved, those people immediately followed him closely, obviously they were frightened during this period.
“You stay here.” After instructing Lu Ning, Ye Mian followed. After passing through a small door and entering the partition, the system text box popped up.
[Exploration completed, get 100 points, five-color paint x3! ]
Um?
Is this the end of the exploration?
Last time she was on the mountain, she discovered that one of the exploration targets was in the industrial park. She had thought that she might have to wait until everything was settled before looking for it, but she didn't expect that she could get here quite smoothly. The reason why she chose this building just now was also because of this.
Ye Mian paused and looked at the new gadgets that had been put into the warehouse compartment.
[Five-color paint: a new type of decorative paint with no adverse effects (it can increase your mood after use)]
It looks like it is used for interior decoration, but can it increase the mood and make the farm workers happy when they come back from work?
It's quite good.
Ye Mian had just packed up the warehouse when he saw people coming out of the kitchen one after another.
And at this glance, she knew why these people were kept in there - they were all middle-aged people in their forties or fifties, with slightly gray hair on their temples, haggard faces, and dark circles under their eyes.
Although they were all evolvers, the obvious improvement in their physical fitness did not bring much help to their psychological endurance. As for their skills... Ye Mian glanced over.
[Strong] [Iron Hand] [Transformation] [Endurance]
It seems that this mutation does not discriminate based on age, and skills are based on each person's characteristics.
"It was this girl who saved us," the man who asked the question said, and then he remembered, "By the way, I haven't asked for your name yet. My name is Qi Shu, and I'm a maintenance worker."
He looks gentle and speaks respectfully in a somewhat literary manner.
Ye Mian nodded slightly to the group of people who looked over gratefully: "Ye Mian."
Before they could say more words of thanks, she turned around and said, "Go out."
When I walked outside, I saw Lu Ning guarding the stairs, looking out the window in a trance, as if some exciting scene was happening.
Ye Mian leaned over and looked out the window. He saw that a large force had come to support and had already eliminated the large number of low-level mutants. They were fighting with the remaining three intermediate mutants. He couldn't help but watch for a while longer.
"They are quite formidable," Lu Ning said softly when he noticed her approaching, "It's obvious that quite a few of them are fighting with more than just their skills."
Ye Mian knew who these "they" were without asking - they were the group led by Wen Yuan.
"This is the only way to convince everyone." Ye Mian said, then frowned slightly.
After experiencing such an accident in the village, Xie Yi and his group had obviously turned to these people, which not only allowed them to rescue the survivors in the industrial park as they wished, but also ensure their future safety.
She is a step late.
Qi Shu and his group who were following behind were all shocked when they saw the battle situation outside the window, and then they realized belatedly that they were relieved and surprised - they were really rescued!
"Miss Ye, don't you need to go and help?"
"No, they're almost done." Ye Mian turned to look at Qi Shu, who had calmed down completely, and asked, "Do you have any remaining supplies? You can take a look at them now and take them away later."
Qi Shu smiled bitterly: "To be honest, we were only concerned with escaping and didn't manage to grab much food and water, and we've almost used up all the cooking oil."
Others also responded.
"Yeah, luckily you guys are here."
"I almost thought we were going to die here together."
"Wow, it feels so good to still be alive."
At this moment, someone's stomach growled a few times, which was very appropriate, and the group of people couldn't help but laugh.
The fact that you can still laugh means you are not completely desperate.
Ye Mian also smiled, then looked at Lu Ning, then walked to the side tacitly and did some small movements behind their backs.
When he turned around again, Ye Mian already had a box of steamed buns in his hand.
Although this group of people had nothing to produce that could be used for trading, Ye Mian had just collected rhenium stones along the way and the exploration mission was successfully completed. In addition, he quite admired their self-rescue methods, so he regarded it as a good deed.
"Fill your stomach first, and then go down after you finish eating."
Seeing that the box of food was really for them, Qi Shu couldn't believe it. He kept saying "this" for a long time but couldn't utter a complete sentence.
Finally, the oldest man who looked like a grandfather came out and took it. He bowed solemnly to Ye Mian and the others and said, "Thank you very much."
They were worried that they would choke without water, so they tried to eat slowly. But when they found that the buns were not dry at all, they started to wolf them down.
Then in less than five minutes only an empty box was left.
Qi Shu had calmed down. He returned the empty box to Ye Mian and thanked him again. A relaxed smile finally appeared on his face. "Everything will be fine after this is over."
Ye Mian turned around and put the box away. After hearing this, he remembered another important thing.
"No, it's still a long way from being completely over."
