"What...what happened! Who killed him?!"
Zhu Zhengzhong's face, covered in dust, was now filled with ferocity and resentment. He knew about Lin Zhong'an's abilities and had specifically calculated the time it would take for Lin Zhong'an to escape, making sure they couldn't catch him, before he told the B City base about Lin Zhong'an.
There simply aren't that many Level 4 psychic ability users at the B City base, so how could they possibly capture Lin Zhong'an!
Seemingly understanding Zhu Zhengzhong's resentment, Chen Yu curled his lips into a cold smile, determined to crush even his last bit of resentment. "It was Lin Ruo who helped us find him. She killed Lin Zhong'an."
Upon hearing this name, Zhu Zhengzhong was stunned. He had never considered Lin Ruo in his calculations. Hadn't she always stayed out of it? Why was she getting involved?
“No…it’s impossible. She’s not the type to meddle in other people’s business. This has nothing to do with her,” Zhu Zhengzhong shook his head blankly, still unable to accept it. “You’re trying to scare me.”
He was uncertain. He had already lost all hope of escaping, and now with Lin Ruo added to the mix, he feared that even if he escaped, the organization would eventually be destroyed by Lin Ruo. This was not the first base she had destroyed, nor would it be the last. At this moment, he felt a sense of despair before him, and even escaping seemed meaningless.
Moreover, how long could he hold out? Although he had never personally witnessed Lin Ruo interrogating prisoners, he had heard Yang Songming mention that those trained members of the Qi family couldn't withstand her.
The head that exploded in front of him, the burning sensation of the spray on his face, and even the images of Du Xueqing and the other two desiccated corpses immediately flashed into his mind. If she used all these tricks on him...
Thinking of this, Zhu Zhengzhong shuddered violently, and his thoughts were involuntarily conveyed through his eyes, which were now filled with boundless fear. The name Lin Ruo was a terrifying existence in his mind.
At this moment, the healing ability user also withdrew his ability, stared at the somewhat bewildered Zhu Zhengzhong, and said sarcastically, "You think everyone is like you? Although Sister Ruo doesn't like to meddle in other people's business, she has zero tolerance for people like you who have done all kinds of evil deeds. When you captured these innocent ability users and ordinary survivors to do experiments, you should have thought that you are now the enemy of everyone."
Because of his special abilities, he gained some understanding of these matters after being cleared of suspicion, and it was precisely because he knew this that he became even more furious.
Zhu Zhengzhong looked up at him and argued, "I didn't do any of that. I didn't kill or capture those people. Why should it be blamed on me? I just wanted to gain superpowers."
The coldness in Chen Yu's eyes grew stronger. He walked over and kicked Zhu Zhengzhong in the chest, sending him flying several meters away, crashing hard into the cell wall.
Zhu Zhengzhong was just an ordinary person now, how could he withstand such a kick? He felt as if his internal organs had shifted, and he coughed up several mouthfuls of blood, collapsing to the ground, looking like he was barely breathing.
"Do you want to confess? You're so afraid of Lin Ruo, why don't we ask her to interrogate you? It's just a piece of cake for her."
Chen Yu knew he couldn't persuade Lin Ruo to come, but seeing Zhu Zhengzhong's bewildered expression when he mentioned Lin Ruo, he decided to use Lin Ruo as a breakthrough point.
Upon hearing this, the two people in the cell displayed two extreme emotions. The healing-type ability user looked at Chen Yu with surprise and delight. He had only seen Lin Ruo a few times from afar and had never spoken to her. If he could really invite her to come and interrogate him, he might be able to exchange a few words with her. He was genuinely looking forward to it.
Zhu Zhengzhong, who lay on the ground unable to get up for a long time, was deathly pale and terrified. "No! No! I'll talk."
Chen Yu was surprised that Zhu Zhengzhong agreed so easily. He wondered what Lin Ruo had done to make Zhu Zhengzhong so afraid of her.
Little did he know that Lin Ruo was actually the person Zhu Zhengzhong feared most, because the impression she left on him had shocked him several times, and Lin Ruo had become a synonym for terror in his mind.
"I've told you everything. What do you want to know?"
Zhu Zhengzhong suppressed the urge to recall those images, enduring the intense pain in his lungs. Since there was no hope of escape anyway, and he was destined to die, he figured it was better to confess than to suffer the torment. That way, he could die a quicker death.
...
Lin Ruo quickly flew back to her mountain peak. It was already 2 PM, and the afternoon training hadn't started yet. It seemed like she would have to work overtime today.
As she sped across her mountain peak, she suddenly saw several mutated animals emerging from the snow, their fine fur covered in snow.
The thick snow below completely covered their bodies, with only their heads showing.
Lin Ruo then realized that the snow on her mountain peak seemed quite thick. When she usually went out, she would either teleport or fly, and rarely paid attention to the snow conditions outside the mutated forest. Even if she did pay attention, it was to the mountaintop to avoid avalanches. She had never noticed that the snow below had reached this level.
She extended her mental energy downwards, quickly covering a distance of over ten kilometers below. In some low-lying areas, the distance exceeded 25 meters, which would be difficult for Alu, given his current height, to traverse through the snow.
She flapped her wings and hovered in mid-air, looking down at the mutated plants below. Only some tall trees remained standing, exposed above the snow, while the rest of the greenery was completely covered by snow.
She probed the still space with her spiritual power. The volume of snow that had been collected into the space was already quite considerable. Even after the snow was collected into the space, it was compressed to an extreme degree. Now, the snow in the still space had piled up into a small hill. In the extremely hot period when fresh water was scarce, this would definitely be a hot commodity. Unfortunately, in front of Lin Ruo, who was a water-type, this thing was basically useless.
Although it was of little use, Lin Ruo still used her spatial abilities to quickly compress the snow together and put it into her space.
