Chapter 231 The Art of Speaking

"You know me?" Zhou Lingqi asked with a hint of surprise.

"What do you think?" Shu Xin did not give a direct answer.

Speaking is an art. (Unfortunately, the author has not mastered it.)

Sometimes it is better to be ambiguous and leave enough room for the other party's imagination than to make the words clear.

As early as when Chen Yan was talking to Butler 001, Shu Xin was using the malicious value scanning function to scan the names and malicious values ​​of all the people on the opposite side.

They had been hanging around outside the base west of City T for a few days some time ago, and she was not unfamiliar with Zhou Lingqi's name.

In the data about the Western Base investigated, the name Zhou Lingqi appeared a lot.

Zhou Lingqi, the third in command of the Western Base, is a third-level wood-type mutant. He has been following Liu Hong since he heard that the end of the world was coming. He and the second in command Xiong Wencheng are Liu Hong's right-hand men. The Western Base can have its current scale without the support of these two people.

"You know my identity and the power I represent. Why don't you call the person in charge of your base out so that we can sit down and talk calmly?"

Sure enough, the expression on Zhou Lingqi's face changed again and again. The contempt in his eyes disappeared, and he looked directly at the woman sitting on the tiger in front of him.

"Calm and composed? Are you joking? That lady just tried to kill me. Now that she didn't get the punishment she deserved, you want to just let it go? There's no such thing!" Shu Xin sneered.

Zhou Lingqi: "I'll leave Chen Yan to you to deal with. No matter what you want to do, I won't have any opinion."

Shu Xin didn't say anything more, raised the gun in his hand, pointed it at Chen Yan and fired.

Her heart had been tempered into ice by the apocalypse, and she would never be soft-hearted and leave a superpower who had ill intentions towards her as a hidden danger.

Chen Yan knew that Zhou Lingqi had made it clear that he would not care about her anymore, and the people who came with him would listen to him and would not care about her life or death.

Of course she would not stand there and wait to die. As a third-level psychic, it was not difficult for her to dodge a bullet. She dodged the continuous bullets fired by the opponent, with a fierce look in her eyes, and instead of retreating, she rushed forward and rushed straight towards Shuxin's facade.

Watching her actions, Shuxin curled up the corners of his mouth into a smile, and a gleam of success flashed across his eyes.

Chen Yan did not miss the flash of light in her eyes and wanted to change direction, but unfortunately she rushed out too fast and could not control her body under the strong inertia.

By the time I felt the pain at the tip of my right foot, it was too late.

The electric current, compressed countless times, instantly penetrated her entire body. Before she could utter even a sound of fear, she completely disappeared before everyone's sight.

One second.

Just one second.

A living person turned into ashes before their eyes.

When the wind blows away, nothing is left.

Deathly silence...

“Back off!”

Zhou Lingqi and the people behind him retreated dozens of steps in unison.

He was standing closest to the front among them, so while others might not have seen what was happening, he saw it clearly.

When Chen Yan's body touched that position, a layer of blue light film that was so faint that it was almost invisible flashed, and he saw a flash of purple current in it.

That's electricity...

Shuxin was also a little surprised.

It was also the first time that she witnessed the power of the base's protective shield.

It’s really amazing!
