Chapter 38: The Plan is Ruined
【 Do you want to use their medicine? 】
Sang Chu nodded: 【 That’s right, it’s a shame that Level Five Supernatural Ability Users are too vigilant. Even if he can’t see you, you might not be able to get close. Therefore, it’s only necessary to make most Supernatural Ability Users lose their abilities. The plants underground should be what they used to research this medicine. Find a way to destroy them all. This way, New City’s strength will be reduced by more than half, and they shouldn’t make any moves for a while. 】
Tu You: 【 But won’t they still use people to feed the zombies this way? 】
Sang Chu: 【 Yes, this is unavoidable, but they will prioritize those Supernatural Ability Users who have no value. 】
Tu You’s eyes widened, and he clapped his two rabbit ears excitedly: 【 Exactly! Even if they lose their abilities, they are still Supernatural Ability Users! They prioritize Supernatural Ability Users when feeding zombies! 】
But it will only give ordinary people a period of respite. In the apocalypse, humans are like livestock.
There wasn’t much she could do, only to do what she could while ensuring her own safety.
But she was also a selfish person; it was impossible for her to give up so many Crystal Cores.
Nor could she leave these things to the enemy!
Tu You glanced at Sang Chu, picked up his things, and flew away.
Upon returning home, Xiao Bao Yu saw his mother sitting alone by the bed crying. Just as he was about to walk over, his mother saw him and frantically grabbed his hand, pulling him outside.
“Go, you go, don’t come back! Hurry and go!”
“Go, go where!”
The Guard Team had surrounded the front and back doors. Jian Xiu Ying nervously pulled Xiao Bao Yu behind her:
“You can give up on this! I will absolutely not let you take my son away!”
“Hmph, what can you do, a mere woman? Hurry up and get them! If you’re late, that bastard Xiao Jian will cause trouble again!”
Jian Xiu Ying: “You, what are you talking about?”
The Captain sneered at the woman, who, despite her age, was still charming:
“No wonder Xiao Jian used all sorts of tricks to keep you. You really are quite attractive. But in the apocalypse, what good is attractiveness? Fool, let me tell you, your eldest son and his friend were sent to the zombie feeding base by Xiao Jian with his own hands.
He also found your younger son to be a nuisance. It’s a pity his brother was useless and couldn’t capture your son, so he had to find someone higher up to pressure me into coming to arrest him. Since you’re all going to die anyway, let’s make sure you die with understanding. Don’t be so stupid in your next life as to find such a heartless man!”
“Mom?”
Xiao Bao Yu looked at Jian Xiu Ying, whose face was pale and body trembling uncontrollably. He worriedly hugged her from behind. After a long while, he heard her say with a trembling voice, “What about my son, Xiao Yi Fei?”
“Dead! Your younger son is also about to die!”
A group of people burst into laughter, slowly approaching the mother and son step by step.
Jian Xiu Ying looked at this group of Supernatural Ability Users who were like demons, constantly shielding Xiao Bao Yu as she retreated: “Can you please spare my son? You can have anything you want.”
Xiao Bao Yu: “No, Mom, at worst, we’ll die here together. We won’t beg them!”
Xiao Bao Yu, fearing these beasts would harm his mother, exerted force and threw her behind him. He clenched his fists, ready to attack at any moment.
Captain: “What can a normal person like you do!”
To prove his words, he extended his hand. An invisible force, like an unseen hand, gripped Xiao Bao Yu’s head. The Captain waved his hand, and Xiao Bao Yu was thrown out.
Cough, cough, cough—
Dazed from the fall, Xiao Bao Yu felt as if his internal organs had shifted. He coughed violently.
But at this moment,
Bang—
With a loud noise,
The front and back doors were both shut. The small house felt very crowded.
Jian Xiu Ying’s eyes turned red. She lowered her head and muttered madly, “It’s my fault for my son, I, I shouldn’t have trusted Xiao Jian. It’s my fault, it’s my fault.”
Captain: “Putting on a show. You still have Supernatural Ability Users in your family, right? Hmph, come out!”
The Captain snorted coldly and arrogantly raised his hand. Two lackeys nodded and hurried to open the door, but as soon as they turned, their stomachs were pierced by the hands of their fellow Supernatural Ability Users.
The person trembled and, in turn, injected the thorns in his hand into the person behind him.
The two died together.
Seeing this, the Captain immediately realized that a Mental Power Supernatural Ability User was causing trouble from behind.
He quickly constructed an ability shield to protect himself, not suspecting Jian Xiu Ying at all: “Who? Come out! Do you know what you’re doing? I am—”
“Kill them.”
A cold voice came. The Captain frowned in confusion: “Who!”
The other party’s voice was deep and sinister, like the whispers of a demon from the abyss, but he searched everywhere and couldn’t find the source of the sound.
“Kill them!!”
Jian Xiu Ying suddenly looked up and roared: “Kill them!!!”
Her eyes, red and manic, startled the Captain: “You, you are a Mental Power Supernatural Ability User!”
“I told you to kill them!!!!”
Jian Xiu Ying glared at the Captain, her ability instantly erupting: “I told you to kill them! Kill everyone, kill Xiao Lao Er’s family, kill Xiao Jian, kill everyone who hurt my son! I told you to kill them!!!”
The enraged Jian Xiu Ying unknowingly amplified her ability. Seeing her mother’s mad appearance, Xiao Bao Yu trembled with fear: “Mom…”
But he didn’t dare to call out loudly, afraid of startling his mother.
The Captain’s eyes gradually darkened, as if he were truly being controlled.
“Captain!”
“Captain, what are you doing!”
“Captain, wake up!!!”
But no matter how they called, it was useless. The controlled Captain crushed one person with each hand. Seeing the scattered remains and the captain who had lost his mind, Xiao Bao Yu could hardly believe his eyes.
After the Captain killed his own men, he left without stopping. A moment later, sharp screams were heard from next door.
Before long, the commotion disappeared.
Xiao Bao Yu scrambled away from the tragic corpses on the ground and went to his mother’s side: “Mom, Mom, it’s okay, Brother isn’t dead. I just got home and didn’t have time to tell you, Brother isn’t dead. Brother Jing Wen’s friend saved him, Mom.”
But the dazed Jian Xiu Ying couldn’t hear his voice at all and remained in a state of mental breakdown.
Xiao Bao Yu, tears streaming down his face, hugged his mother tightly and kept saying in her ear, “Mom, it’s Xiao Bao. Don’t scare me, okay, Mom.”
Lu Min Feng heard the commotion and rushed over, only to see Jian Xiu Ying in her manic state.
He quickly contacted Sang Chu, then walked to Xiao Bao Yu’s side: “Stop calling out. We need to leave quickly, someone is coming!”
“Brother Min Feng?”
“It’s me!”
Just as Lu Min Feng was about to cover them both with his ability, Jian Xiu Ying suddenly stared in his direction. Although her eyes were unfocused and she didn’t seem to see him,
that pair of eyes, that sense of mental oppression, made one very uncomfortable.
“Mom, this is Brother Min Feng. He’s the one who saved Brother. He’s a good person. Let’s listen to him, okay?”
“Someone’s coming, quickly!”
