Chapter 324 Shock
Now that I think about it, it seems that after entering Maolin, Captain Zhang never reminded them of the danger ahead.
Just as Lan Jin was puzzled, the giant snake in front of him swallowed the two people at the front of the team, and turned around and attacked them with its big mouth.
Seeing that she was distracted, Ling Jiang quickly stepped forward and stopped her behind him. He used his ice ability and froze the huge snake head into an ice block with one move.
But everyone knows that for a snake, the head is the head and the tail is the tail. Even if the head is controlled, its tail can still move independently.
As soon as the head fell to the ground, the tail swept towards them.
Lan Jin immediately came back to his senses, conjured up the spikes of the Ning Zi Ring, jumped up, and used the spikes to fix his tail in place in mid-air.
After the head and tail of the snake were controlled, the team members immediately stepped forward and attacked its body. Only when the snake finally stopped moving did everyone put away their weapons.
Lan Jin also retracted the spikes and then turned her attention to Captain Zhang. She asked, "Brother Zhang, you are a psychic, but your ability is relatively weak. You can only sense mutants that are relatively close. We all know this, but why didn't you warn us when those mutants were so close after we came in?"
As soon as Lan Jin asked the question, everyone turned their eyes in the direction of Captain Zhang, and everyone's eyes seemed to have had doubts about this issue for a long time, but unlike her, everyone did not ask it in public. Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that since Lan Jin chose to come in from the right, everyone, and probably the various bases, have been sticking closer than before.
So, there is no shortage of smart people in this team.
Lan Jin's question was a bit pressing, and Captain Zhang had no choice but to answer. He could only explain, "My superpowers have been completely useless since entering the lush forest. I don't know if it's because there are too many mutant creatures nearby, or if my superpowers have been suppressed."
Turning around, Brother Zhang said incredulously, "Lan Jin, you're not doubting me, are you?"
What a joke! She never trusts anyone. If she couldn't refuse and wanted to continue living a stable life in the base, she would not participate in any special training.
Not far away, the hissing sound came again. Lan Jin didn't even glance at it. He just said, "I don't care what secrets you have behind you, or what you plan to do. If I lose one of my team members, no one will be able to leave here."
As soon as the words fell, a huge bolt of lightning struck down from the sky and hit the big snake that was attacking them.
The big snake was struck by lightning and its body was straightened by the electricity. Then the lightning stopped and the big snake fell to the ground without struggling. Unlike the previous snake, it didn't even twitch and was electrocuted to death.
What a powerful lightning ability this is! Although its weakness is that it cannot electrocute small things, who knows if this is Lan Jin's disguise?
But Captain Zhang was furious. "I didn't lie to you. My special ability really doesn't work. Zhou Zhi knows it too. I mentioned it to him after we came in. I also told Doctor Wang, who separated from us. I just didn't tell you at the time because I was afraid you would worry."
Lao Gao asked back, "But this is too coincidental. Everyone else's abilities are still there, but yours is gone."
At this time, a team member beside him shuddered and said, "No, my special ability is gone too."
The team member then said, "I have plant-based abilities. I was able to use them outside, but they stopped working after we entered the dense forest. When I was at the fork in the road, I wanted to use my abilities to save the teammates who had been taken away, but I realized I didn't have any. I later reported this to Captain Zhang. I didn't mean to hide it from anyone."
Is that really true?
"Yes, Captain Zhang told me about it after we came in. It might be due to the environment. You're too nervous, which is why you're so suspicious. Don't think too much about it."
Lan Jin turned his attention to Zhou Zhiye, but Zhou Zhiye was also from the H City base, and the two of them already knew each other, so what was wrong with them covering for each other?
However, after hearing Zhou Zhiye's voice and seeing his eyes, Lan Jin inexplicably felt that the other party would not deceive her, and she relaxed her mind as if what had just happened was really her illusion.
His mind relaxed, and he naturally wasn't as aggressive when speaking as before.
"Lan Jin, don't be nervous. Since we're on a mission together, we're all teammates. We wouldn't do anything like stabbing a teammate in the back. Besides, you've saved me so many times, I wouldn't do such a thing." Captain Zhang breathed a sigh of relief and added, "And your ability, when did it become so strong?"
Even after using such a powerful ability, her body didn't react at all. It can be imagined that what she did just now was not her bottom line. You know, the last time she electrocuted a lizard to death, Lan Jin was completely exhausted. What is this? This is a huge snake, several stories high.
Lan Jin glared at him and replied, "Why are you asking so many questions? Even with such a strong ability, there's nothing I can do."
Hearing Lan Jin's tone, almost everyone present, not to mention Captain Zhang, breathed a sigh of relief.
How should I put it? I was really shocked by the electric snake look she showed just now.
But Lan Jin did not regret doing this. Who knows if Captain Zhang has it or not, and who knows if others have it too? What if something bad really happens behind the scenes? Seeing the thunder and lightning, he had to think about his actions again.
The snakes were killed and the farce was over. After taking out the crystals from the gallbladders of the two big snakes, they naturally continued on their way.
Professor Pei, still lying on Huang Jinghe's back, sighed, "Ah, I don't know whether this trip is a blessing or a curse."
Huang Jinghe asked in a low voice: "Grandpa Pei, what do you mean?"
"The abilities of the four of you are too strong. I don't know what methods you used, but this is enough. If you continue to grow stronger, it will be more than just a concern."
Huang Jinghe also understood. He said, "Sister Lan is usually very careful. She usually doesn't let us use such powerful abilities, for fear that something uncontrollable might happen. I think she must have noticed something was wrong just now. But isn't it good to have powerful abilities?"
"Oh, that's good, but not good either. There are some things I can't say too much, but I'll try my best..." Grandpa Pei reminded gently.
"We know."
"You know nothing." He knew it but still tried to scare people.
After Grandpa Pei cursed, he stopped talking.
Huang Jinghe, who was being scolded, never understood why Grandpa Pei scolded him.
