Behind the armored vehicle.
Jiang Yiwen moved his fingers, and he heard a buzzing sound in his ears, as if he was in a car, and the car was shaking slightly.
He calmly lifted his eyelids a little and looked around with his eyes half-closed.
The light was dim and it took him a while to see clearly.
This was in the car, with his teammates lying next to him.
Jiang Yiwen turned over and stood up after making sure there was no danger.
All his teammates are here, except Fan Xin and Sui Jing.
He is a water-based mutant, but he was attacked by several water arrows in the maze before. He was defeated step by step but was still able to hold on.
However, a circle of water suddenly appeared under his feet, constantly washing the ground and quickly mixing with the soil below. The originally good ground instantly became a swamp.
With the help of supernatural powers, the suction of the swamp was much stronger than that of a normal swamp. No matter what method he used, he could not leave and could only watch himself sink deeper and deeper.
His body sank into the swamp, and the pressure of the swamp caused pain in his chest, making it difficult for him to breathe.
When it slowly went over his neck, he almost thought he was going to die there.
But the suction of the swamp suddenly stopped.
Even if the sinking stopped, Jiang Yiwen's situation was still difficult. He had no way to save himself. He thought of many ways, but none of them worked.
Just when everyone else was already drowsy, a cluster of vines emerged from the ground. Jiang Yiwen instantly woke up and condensed a bubble shield with water to cover himself.
A vine swung towards him, and the bubble was vulnerable and shattered with a snap.
Then it dived directly into the swamp and wrapped him up all over.
After being released, Jiang Yiwen lay on the ground and rested for a while before he recovered. He looked at the cluster of vines, wondering who was controlling them.
Song Bosong is the only one with Missy's special abilities in their team, but...
There was no way Song Baisong could control such a large cluster of vines.
Jiang Yiwen sat up and looked around, but didn't see anyone. He stood up, holding on to the earth wall, and looked at the cluster of vines.
Its roots are buried underground, and it looks like an octopus.
Just as he was looking at the vines, the quiet vines suddenly went wild and swung them at him, each blow heavier than the last, making Jiang Yiwen grimace and jump around.
The vines were very powerful and he couldn't defeat them at all, so he had to run away.
As he fled, he tried to find a way to deal with the vines.
However, the water-based attack power was too weak, and he was completely unable to do anything about the vines, so he could only flee everywhere being chased.
Jiang Yiwen racked his brains for a solution, and suddenly it occurred to him that the stems and leaves of plants contain water. Once the water is drained, the vines will wither and die.
Even though it seemed unlikely, he had no choice but to give it a try.
He tried hard to concentrate his mental strength, staring at the vine, trying to extract the moisture from it bit by bit. He didn't remember how many times he failed, but when he finally extracted the moisture from the vine, he was very happy.
The next moment, he felt a headache and passed out.
Jiang Yiwen's face turned from blue to black, and then from black to white.
Fan Xin noticed that Liu Kai and others were gradually waking up. She asked Sui Jing to stop the car and then went into the car.
When she came over, most of the ten of them were awake.
Seeing their expressions getting uglier and uglier, Fan Xin curled her lips slightly and asked, "How do you feel?"
Armed team: "..."
My whole body hurts, every place hurts. Although the wounds are healing, the pain plus the itching during the recovery process is even more uncomfortable.
Liu Kai looked at Fan Xin. He was dressed neatly and cleanly, which was in stark contrast to the messy state of the others. "Brother, you saved us?"
Fan Xin: "I guess so."
Xie Dawei looked at Fan Xin for a while, his eyes flickered slightly and then he lowered his head.
Luo Ningyi was still a little dazed. He remembered that he and Xie Dawei had sunk into the ground together. How did he find them? How did he get them out?
Fan Xin leaned against the car door with his arms folded: "Mayor Zhou asked you to come here to assist me, not to hinder me. I don't want you to be so weak next time."
Li Nan stood up in a flash and glared at Fan Xin: "Who are you calling weak?"
"If not weak, what else should I use?" Fan Xin laughed. "Should I use garbage?"
"You!" Li Nan's eyes were blazing with fire.
Fan Xin met his eyes and said, "Isn't it? You're trapped in a maze, with the door closed and you're unable to fight back. If you're not weak, then who is?"
Li Nan gritted his teeth and said, "You're so awesome! Why didn't you get out of the car when the accident happened? You were hiding in the car like a grandson, and now you're acting like a big shot?"
Liu Kai reached out and grabbed Li Nan: "Li Nan! What nonsense are you talking about?"
Li Nan sneered: "What nonsense am I talking about? So it's not true?"
Liu Kai said, "No matter what, he saved us. Those people clearly wanted to kill us. Without me, Fan Xin, we might have been wiped out this time."
Li Nan pursed his lips, turned his head away and hummed, "Do you know what's going on?"
Fan Xin looked around. Although the others didn't jump out like Li Nan, their faces didn't look very good.
Fan Xin smiled and said, "You seem quite unconvinced? Of course, no one likes to be called weak. If you don't want to be a weakling, then practice your abilities well."
As she spoke, the smile on her face disappeared.
"I hope you understand that after the apocalypse, the world will be different from before. It won't be all about carrying weights, climbing, building strength, and practicing military boxing." She curled her lips and said, "Your abilities aren't just for show. In the many battles you'll face, they will be your most important weapon."
"This time, you were overpowered. One reason is that you didn't know how to coordinate and were easily separated. The other reason is that you habitually relied on yourselves and didn't use your abilities immediately."
"Those people may have higher levels of abilities than you, but your abilities are more solid and stable, whereas they used other methods to rapidly increase their abilities in a short period of time, and their bodies are now on the verge of collapse."
"If you had a stronger control over your powers, you could have worn them down. But what happened? You were even weaker than a first-level psychic, and almost lost your lives."
"That's enough!" Zhao Ke looked at Fan Xin with a dark face. "You really think you're so great just because you saved a few people? You're even interfering in the affairs of our armed forces. The mayor only asked you to command this operation. Don't use this little feather as a token of authority!"
Fan Xin looked at Zhao Ke with a cold expression: "You also said that you let me command this operation. Since you don't want to listen to me, then you can go back."
"You TM——" Zhao Ke's expression froze and his anger grew.
"Zhao Ke!" Xie Dawei shouted.
Zhao Ke's chest was heaving, his eyes were red, his fists were clenched tightly, and veins on the back of his hands were bulging.
Xie Dawei walked over, grabbed Zhao Ke's shoulders and pushed him back to his seat.
Zhao Ke was held down tightly, his teeth still chattering.
He raised his head and looked at Fan Xin with a complicated expression: "You are right. We are still in the exploratory stage of our superpowers, and our control over them is very poor."
This is not just a problem for them, all the mutants in the safe zone have this problem.
Therefore, their weaknesses were not visible in the safe zone, but after they came out and ran into Scar and the others, their weaknesses were instantly exposed.
"So, what should we do now?" Xie Dawei looked serious and solemn.
But none of them had seen Fan Xin, only he had.
Luo Ning rubbed his arms and said, "Actually... I think what Brother Fan said makes a lot of sense. We really don't have a good grasp of our abilities..."
Li Nan, who jumped up first, scoffed, "He teaches? Xie Dawei, are you crazy? Letting someone who treats us like trash teach us how to use superpowers? How can he teach? Point at our noses and yell at us?"
Fan Xin leaned against the door, smiling: "You don't have to admit that you are weak, as long as you can promise not to hold me back, I don't care."
"It's not scary to be weak, what's scary is being weak but refusing to let others know, being weak but refusing to listen to advice and become stronger."
"It's okay if you think my words are harsh." Fan Xin said with a smile: "It's okay if you don't like it or don't accept it."
"But please turn around and return to your safe zone." Fan Xin smiled, his eyes cold. "I don't like people who drag us down. If you keep dragging us down, I won't be able to help but take action and finish you off first."
The car was silent.
Liu Kai stared at Fan Xin in a daze. When he met her cold gaze, he suddenly had a feeling that she was not joking.
It's impossible to go back.
Even though they had only been in the army for a short time, everyone kept in mind - obey orders and follow commands.
Going back now? What would that mean? Just a child's play? Who would have the nerve to face their colleagues and the mayor after they return?
"In your current situation, it's impossible not to fall behind."
Fan Xin unfolded the map and said, "I looked at it. We still have more than half a month to go to reach Hongyue Mountain. If you choose to stay, you must train according to my requirements during this time."
Liu Kai glanced at everyone and nodded first: "I understand."
Xie Dawei also nodded: "Okay."
Luo Ningyi: "Understood!"
Jiang Yiwen looked at everyone and said, "I will cooperate with the training."
Wang Fei scratched his head, glancing at Zhao Ke and Li Nan's expressions in confusion. He hesitantly said, "I'll cooperate with the training, too. How do you want me to train you?"
After they spoke, everyone gritted their teeth and agreed, whether they were willing or not.
Fan Xin nodded: "You guys take a rest first, and start training from tomorrow."
After Fan Xin left, the carriage remained dead silent.
Xie Dawei looked at everyone and asked, "Have you noticed any changes in your bodies?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, he attracted everyone's attention.
Liu Kai's expression changed slightly. He checked and was surprised to find that his mental strength had increased and the energy in his body had risen to a higher level.
Luo Ning was surprised and said, "I just stabilized my level 3. It's impossible for me to upgrade so quickly..."
Jiang Chen nodded. "I just reached level three a while ago. It shouldn't have been possible to upgrade so quickly, and... my status is still so stable after the upgrade."
When they first upgrade, their state will be unstable for a period of time, during which time they need to meditate more and consolidate their knowledge.
Xie Dawei looked at Zhao Ke and Li Nan: "If I'm not mistaken, it's probably because of Fan Xin..."
Zhao Ke sneered: "Him? Do you think he is a god? Can he help us upgrade in such a short time?"
Xie Dawei: "Then tell me, why did we all upgrade together if it wasn't because of him?"
Zhao Ke snorted and turned his head away.
Zhang Hai looked around, his expression a little tangled: "I think Wei Ge's guess should be correct."
Suddenly, everyone looked at Zhang Hai.
Zhang Hai is a timid and introverted person. Seeing so many people looking at him, he couldn't help but shrink back.
Luo Ningyi and Zhang Hai were of similar age and had the best personal relationship. Knowing that Zhang Hai was usually quiet, it was surprising that he spoke now. He couldn't help but ask, "Why?"
Zhang Hai wasn't used to being stared at so much, and his cheeks felt slightly hot. "Yeah, that's right. Some time ago, when I was delivering materials, I overheard the conversation between the mayor and Brother Shen."
At this point, he quickly explained, "I didn't mean to eavesdrop. I just overheard something when I went in to deliver something."
Xie Dawei was puzzled: "What did you hear?"
Zhang Hai: "Fan Xin is the one who taught Zhou Shao the meditation method."
