Chapter 146 The Cicada Awaits



At this moment, the people from Qiyuan Base emerged from the shadows, laughing heartily, and kicked the squad leader, saying, "Thank you!"

Lin Ruo nodded from the tree, "You really should thank us." Her eyes shone brightly with white light, and her spatial domain instantly enveloped everyone in the Qiyuan Base. In just a moment, these people were imprisoned by the space and could not move.

"What's going on?!"

"Captain, I can't move!"

"There are even more powerful superhumans around..."

Before he could finish speaking, his teammate saw the man's head rapidly turning backward on its own. With a "crack," the man's neck bone broke, and he fell silent. Yet, the man's body remained eerily upright.

Amidst the terrified gazes of these people, Lin Ruo snapped their necks one by one, extracted the crystal cores from the brains of the three superhumans, and stored them in her spatial domain. Only then did she withdraw her spatial domain, and the corpses all collapsed to the ground.

Lin Ruo scanned the surroundings with his mental energy and, finding no one else, removed the invisibility water membrane from his body, jumped down from the tree, walked to the mutated tiger, and put the tiger into his spatial storage.

He then walked over to the people at the B City base, picked up the two crystal energy guns, and searched all the corpses lying on the ground, finding some food and crystal cores.

Lin Ruo was happy to have the item. She opened her spatial domain and a teleported person disappeared from the spot.

After obtaining the crystal energy gun, Lin Ruo teleported several hundred meters away before putting on an ice shield. He then focused his mental energy into the space and experimented with the crystal energy gun and the thick plate of black jade crystal.

She manipulated her mental power and fired at the black jade crystal. "Bang bang bang..." A series of impact sounds echoed through the space.

The thick plate remained intact, demonstrating that although the crystal energy gun was extremely powerful, it was still unable to damage the black jade crystal.

This put Lin Ruo's mind at ease. If the crystal energy gun couldn't do it, then the crystal energy cannon couldn't either. Her fortress was indeed the safest.

She withdrew her mental energy from the space, took the crystal energy gun in her hand, and quickly rushed into the forest, eager to test its power.

Lin Ruo moved swiftly through the mountains and forests. To make things easier and faster, she activated her mental power to the maximum. Within a range of several kilometers, she could clearly sense where any mutated beasts were.

After walking a few hundred meters, Lin Ruo's eyes suddenly lit up. He had finally found a test subject: a level 2 mutated leopard. The leopard was currently perched on a tree, eating its prey that it had just hunted.

Suddenly, it looked around alertly, stood up, and sensed the danger around it.

Lin Ruo concealed himself behind a tree, aiming his crystal energy gun at the leopard's head, and pulled the trigger. "Bang!" Then, he fired another shot with his wrist pointing downwards. "Bang!"

The laser bullets shot rapidly toward the leopard. The leopard quickly jumped down from the tree to dodge the first shot, but it did not expect that Lin Ruo had already sensed the leopard's subtle movements through his mental power and predicted the direction it would run away in, so the leopard was hit by the second shot.

The laser bullet struck the leopard directly in the head, killing it mid-air and causing it to fall to the ground with a thud.

Lin Ruo walked over quickly and gently felt the leopard's wound with his hand. The laser bullet was energy, and the energy dissipated after entering the leopard's body, leaving only bullet holes.

After testing the power and range of the crystal energy gun, Lin Ruo put the leopard's carcass into his spatial storage. Only then did he use his mental power to scan the structure of the crystal energy gun, accurately locating the button at the rear. With a gentle press, the rear detached, revealing the location where the crystal core was placed.

This crystal energy gun can only hold crystal cores smaller than the size of a fist; larger ones cannot be placed inside, which is a limitation of the crystal energy gun.

Inside is a level one crystal core. Lin Ruo sensed the energy inside. After being used up by so many bullets, the energy in the crystal core was almost depleted.

After figuring it out, Lin Ruo put the crystal core back in. Since it was almost used up anyway, she might as well use it all today.

She turned around and left with lightning speed, quickly moving around the area. The mutated beasts around her suffered greatly, and she managed to find more than a dozen level 2 mutated beasts in just one night.

Looking at the mutated beasts that had piled up into a small mountain in the space, Lin Ruo licked her dry lips. Judging from the number, the strength of the mutated beasts had generally improved.

Level 1 mutant beasts are now very common, and even some small mutant beasts have evolved to level 1.

The number of Level 2 mutated beasts is also increasing, otherwise Lin Ruo wouldn't have been able to find so many in one night.

As for top predators, like that mutated tiger from earlier, it has already evolved to level 3. It seems that Afu and Ashou's growth rate is still a bit slow.

Lin Ruo had a fruitful night. The east was already showing the first light of dawn, and if she didn't go back soon, she would be exposed to the scorching sun again. She used her spiritual power to probe the direction before turning around and quickly moving towards the mountain where the fortress was located.
