Chapter 237: Red Seed
“It’s possible. If these seeds can enter the human body and disguise themselves as ordinary people to wait for an opportunity, then it would be truly terrifying. Brother, control those ordinary people first. I’ll contact Doctor Li and Lin Shao Qing immediately, and conduct a comprehensive check on everyone in the entire Base.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Sang Chu thought for a moment and added, “Furthermore, this inspection needs to be regularized. I will notify Lin Shao Qing and Doctor Li to quickly develop instruments for rapid testing. In the future, these will be placed at the City Gate, and anyone entering or leaving can undergo preliminary monitoring. Once an anomaly is detected, they will be immediately controlled.”
Xiao Yi Fei nodded repeatedly, “Mm-hmm, that’s good. If these seeds grow up and eat Supernatural Ability Users, then we’ll be in trouble. This is truly impossible to guard against.”
At this moment, Lu Min Feng’s side also finished counting the people and sent a message that Sang Jing Wen and Xiao Yi Fei could both see:
【Two people are missing from the Seaside! Grandma Yun Xiang took people to check the sea, and found a passage leading outside on the seabed. The people have been stopped, but the corpses are very strange, like Fish Monsters or dried-up Treants. I’ll send you the pictures.】
The pictures arrived shortly after. The Thing in the pictures had a human face, long green hair, fish fins growing from its spine, and a fish tail below. However, tree roots had grown out from within its body.
Xiao Yi Fei shivered all over as he looked at it, “【What the heck is this ghost thing? Is there something like this in the Base?”】
Lu Min Feng: “【I suspect it’s an ordinary person who stayed behind. Because when we were counting people just now, he was missing. Although the monster’s appearance doesn’t match, the green hair does. It’s just that he had short hair when he was in human form.”】
Sang Jing Wen: “【Green hair?”】
“【No way, that green-haired turtle!”】
Xiao Yi Fei was shocked. Could it be that green-haired guy? That green-haired guy looked very timid and cowardly. The last time he saw him, he was being bullied by a group of people. To think he was actually a hidden powerhouse!
Sang Chu: “【These things are very good at hiding themselves. Hai Cheng is vast. If they really hide, it will be impossible to guard against. Min Feng, Brother Yi, Big Brother, the three of you go find Lin Shao Qing first. I’ll have him arrange checks for you immediately. It’s probably difficult to detect this thing hidden inside the body.”
“After the checks are complete and it’s confirmed there are no hidden dangers within your bodies, come find me. I’ll divide Hai Cheng into sections, and you will patrol and check them segment by segment. You must ensure that no one hides or escapes Hai Cheng before everyone has been checked.”】
Lu Min Feng: “【Okay, I’m going now.”】
He looked at Grandma Yun Xiang and said to her, “Grandma, I’ll be gone for a while. I’ll trouble you with things here.”
Suddenly, a Mermaid looked at him and said, “I’ll go with you. I have something I need to ask the City Lord.”
Lu Min Feng glanced at Grandma Yun Xiang. Seeing that she remained silent, he knew she suspected him and was afraid he would escape, which was why she had people watching him.
“Alright, let’s go together then.”
Yun Jian and Yun Luo, the brothers, exchanged glances. They moved their bulky fish tails and followed Lu Min Feng into the Carriage. Grandma Yun Xiang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Yun Na linked arms with Grandma Yun Xiang and looked at his departing back, curiously asking, “Grandma, why do Ah Jian and Ah Luo want to see Ah Chu? Why didn’t you let me go too? I haven’t seen Ah Chu in so long!”
Grandma Yun Xiang stroked Yun Na’s head, her expression dim as she watched Lu Min Feng’s back, “Because the Base is not safe, and this is all we can do for Ah Chu. I hope Lu Min Feng is alright, after all, he is a friend she trusts.”
She always felt a very strange feeling from Lu Min Feng, she couldn’t quite explain it, and it made her a little scared. That feeling became even more pronounced when they mentioned someone escaping from the Base just now.
Yun Na, however, felt Grandma Yun Xiang was worrying unnecessarily, “Grandma, Lu Min Feng should be fine. I believe in Ah Chu!”
“I hope so.”
Grandma Yun Xiang remained silent.
In the Carriage.
Yun Luo and Yun Jian, the brothers, stared intently at Lu Min Feng, making him speechless. “Even if you suspect I have a problem, you don’t need to look at me like this. It’s too obvious.”
Yun Jian shook his head, as if trying to cover up, “I’m not looking at you. I’m just spacing out. Maybe you’re too sensitive!”
Lu Min Feng smiled helplessly, “I’m not going to run, you don’t need to stare at me like this.”
Yun Luo: “We’re not looking at you. You’re overthinking it!”
Lu Min Feng: “…”
These two, one on each side, stared at him intently, and still claimed he was overthinking it!
Perhaps he should sit up straight, put his face in a normal position, and then say these things!
Lu Min Feng: “Fine, if you don’t think you are, then you aren’t.”
Yun Jian/Yun Luo: “We weren’t looking in the first place!”
When one is speechless, they can become truly speechless. Lu Min Feng fell silent, closing his eyes to rest without saying anything, deeply burying the killing intent that had suddenly surged in his heart.
Outside the Hospital.
Sang Jing Wen and Xiao Yi Fei were already waiting here. Upon seeing Lu Min Feng, they entered with him.
Yun Luo and Yun Jian, the brothers, stood guard at the hospital entrance, not leaving their posts.
Xiao Yi Fei looked back at the two statue-like Mermaids and curiously asked Lu Min Feng, “Did you provoke them? Why are they so strange?”
Lu Min Feng: “Why would I provoke them? Grandma Yun Xiang was afraid I had a problem and had them follow me. I don’t have a problem, so I don’t mind them following. It’s fine.”
“Alright, I thought you had done something so outrageous that it angered heaven and earth, provoking these two malevolent stars!”
He had seen the Combat Power of Yun Jian and Yun Luo. These two brothers were present during the first wave of the Demonic Beast Legion’s attack. He couldn’t understand why two people with such strong Combat Power were captured. It was too mind-boggling!
The two of them, Sang Jing Wen and himself combined, were no match for Yun Jian, let alone Yun Jian and Yun Luo working together. Yet, they were still captured. He couldn’t imagine how formidable the other party was.
Lu Min Feng had never seen them fight, so he didn’t understand why Xiao Yi Fei called them malevolent stars. He just shrugged fearlessly and said, “A clear conscience fears no accusation. Even if they are malevolent stars, they have to be reasonable within the Base.”
“That’s true. They all listen to Grandma Yun Xiang, and Grandma Yun Xiang listens to Sister.”
Xiao Yi Fei said this with a very Arrogant tone. Those who didn’t know would think Grandma Yun Xiang listened to him.
Sang Jing Wen glanced at him, “You’re getting smug. That’s my Sister, not your Sister.”
“Hey, why are we arguing about this? Your Sister is my Sister.”
As he spoke, he put his hand on Sang Jing Wen’s shoulder, acting like they were close buddies. However, Sang Jing Wen shrugged him off directly, “Get lost.”
“Getting lost is impossible, but I can cook you a real Egg and show you how to roll.”
“Scram.”
Seeing his smiling face, Sang Jing Wen shook his head helplessly and walked towards Lin Shao Qing, who was already waiting for them.
